After the German bombing, the morale of the British side is quite low. It can be said that pessimism has begun to spread.
Needless to say, just look at the expressions of the people in the conference room. After learning the advantages of the German night bombing, the senior British commanders present began to be discouraged.
Obviously, if this situation continues, Churchill's confidence that he can easily stir up will be lost. Once he loses his belief in victory, there will be traitors and capitulationists, which Churchill is least likely to see.
Therefore, Churchill must find a way to tell the British that Germany is not omnipotent. War is a double-edged sword. While stabbing the enemy, he will also hurt himself!
What better way to boost morale than bombing each other's capital?
This has been regarded as a classic by politicians. For example, after the island countries bombed Pearl Harbor, the whole United States was filled with a pessimistic atmosphere, thinking that the island countries' military strength was too strong to directly kill the US Pacific base.
However, Roosevelt immediately came up with a way to make it possible with the impossible. He carried bombers with aircraft carriers to bomb the island countries, which immediately improved morale and played the most prominent role in the United States winning the whole world War II.
Churchill wanted to do the same.
However, his words immediately attracted daoding's dissatisfaction: "no, now we don't have the strength to do that."
If the Germans can succeed, Britain may not succeed. Let alone bombing Berlin at night, it is simply a battle with no return for the British bomber forces.
Throughout World War II, the death rate of bomber troops is quite high. The casualty rate of British bomber troops is as high as 50%! You know, the submarine force, which has always considered itself to have the highest casualty rate, only had a casualty rate of 30% in World War II.
Germany's air defense forces are quite complete. They have advanced radar equipment. The prospect of this bombing is not optimistic.
Dowdin firmly opposed it.
Hearing what dowdin said, Churchill just counseled: "general dowdin, it's enough to take care of your duty. Think more about how to organize air defense forces and protect our airspace."
It's useless to say more. Anyway, daoding is not in charge of this.
The Royal Air Force established several special commands in 1936: Fighter aviation command, bombing aviation command, coastal aviation command, etc. In the same year, dowdin became the commander of the fighter aviation force.
In other words, daoding is in charge of land air defense, but the bombing mission has nothing to do with him.
Churchill's words made daoding's face blue and red. He finally choked and said nothing.
The relationship between daoding and Churchill is not good. After all, Churchill's arbitrary command disgusts daoding. However, in this troubled autumn, daoding really doesn't have the courage to leave. As a senior general, he needs to take responsibility.
Now, the commander of the British bomber force is lieutenant general Arthur Harris, a fat old general with white hair. He became a member of the Royal Flying team, the predecessor of the Royal Air Force, in World War I.
Now he is attracting everyone's attention. When Churchill scolded dowdin, he looked at him.
Lieutenant general Harris knew that it was not easy to bomb Berlin, because his bombers had limited performance and could not go around in a big circle. From the sea, they could only fly over the airspace of France, the Netherlands and other countries. The interception of German troops along the way was quite terrible and was indeed a very dangerous task.
But does he have a choice? What is more appropriate than sending out bombers to boost the morale of the British people?
In his mind, bombers are the best weapon to attack the enemy, disrupt morale, quickly end the war and avoid massacre.
And now, it's time!
"Our royal bomber force will complete the task satisfactorily." The mouth under a bunch of moustaches started, and his voice was sonorous and powerful, encouraging everyone present: "we know that this will be an arduous battle, but we can't refuse. After all, this is our mission. Let the Germans know what will happen to us!"
I have no choice but to do so!
"Yes, and fast. Just tonight, we will let the Germans know our strength!" Said Churchill.
this night! There is only one day's preparation time, which exacerbates the uncertain factors. Daoding frowned and said nothing. It's sad for laymen to lead experts.
I'm afraid the Germans have planned this air raid for months! The supporting equipment even took a few years to go further. Even after Shrek took power, reinha sent a large number of agents to Britain to pave the way for last night's bombing.
Otherwise, how is the ground guidance completed? Even if there is radio guidance equipment, the ultimate goal is guided by the ground. Whether it is a reverse mounted street lamp or a campfire on the ground, it is done by agents who ambush there in advance.
Britain, however, is unprepared for anything. Even so, they still have to complete this task.
It is impossible to bomb during the day. Therefore, they can only bomb at night in the same way, and their advantage is the never night city of Berlin.
If air defense control is carried out in Berlin because of fear of British air strikes, and the whole city is dark, it will definitely lose face. Today's Germans are absolutely the most proud. They will not make the night in Berlin dark.
Therefore, they still have hope of success!
"I will personally practice it for the soldiers." Churchill said, "I will be at the airport waiting for their triumph!"
This air raid on Berlin was listed as the highest level task by Churchill. Churchill will go there personally. It's encouraging!
"Report, latest news." At this time, Brigadier halke, who had just answered the phone, had an excited look on his face: "we have confirmed that German head of state Chirac is currently in Paris!"
In Paris! Hearing the news, Churchill was also excited. If so, it would be better. Compared with bombing Berlin, bombing Paris would be less dangerous. It would be better if he could blow up Shrek!
The Germans bombed their own Whitehall street and their own bombed Shrek's official residence. This is called tit for tat. It's even better for the civilians bombed in Berlin!
"It seems that we need to renegotiate the plan." Churchill lit his cigar. He suddenly felt relaxed. God, he hasn't given up Great Britain!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
