What did you transport?
Lockhart took up a glass of whisky, drank it, looked around, and finally he couldn't control his mouth.
"We transport, of course, valuable things. I tell you, it's a secret. It's our arms to Britain!"
Arms destined for Britain? Suddenly, field understood: "your captain is really brave! Don't you know? Now, in addition to Britain's own transport companies, others simply dare not accept British business. The Germans have hundreds of submarines waiting in the Atlantic! As long as British goods are transported, nine times out of ten it will be unlucky! "
Field knew very well that just last month, a merchant ship sank in the western waters of Britain. Later, it was analyzed that the merchant ship was a British ship transporting arms and was destroyed by the Germans.
"The Germans are so hateful that they even attack civilian ships!"
"Yes, the Germans dare to attack our American ships!" In an instant, the bar became lively.
It's OK for Germans to fight merchant ships flying the British flag. After all, Britain and Germany are at war, but now the United States remains neutral. In this case, even if their own ships transport arms to Britain, the Germans should not sink!
This is in violation of international practice and seriously hurts the feelings of the American people. In their eyes, their country is strong. Now, they have been brutally treated!
"Don't talk nonsense. I heard that German agents are very powerful. If the news leaks out, maybe all our people here will be killed!" Just then another voice appeared.
"Cruise, you coward! This is the land of America. Who dares to run wild on our land? " Cried field.
"Yes, and kill all the people here? How do Americans kill? How dare they use bombers to bomb us? " When he drank too much, York was open-minded.
Lockhart didn't speak. He poured the second glass of whisky into his mouth.
"Forget it, I won't tell you. I have to go back." Lockhart was obviously worried. He seemed to be afraid of something.
So the crowd laughed.
As sailors, they are all very strong men and have great courage. Now Lockhart has become a coward. He originally sympathized with Lockhart's experience, but now they all look down on him.
What are you afraid of! In this bar, there are almost all sailors, at least five or six, who have experienced shipwrecks. Don't you continue to be sailors?
Lockhart walked out slowly. At this time, there was a roar in the sky.
Looking up, Lockhart was in a trance. He looked at the plane in the sky. The four engines flew from the East. In this era, there were not many four engine airliners, and Atlantic No. 1 airliner was one of the best, covering the main routes from the American continent to Europe.
Douglas company caught up and transformed the DC-4 on the basis of Douglas's DC-3. It has also become a huge monster with four engines and wants to compete with Atlantic one.
Unfortunately, this kind of airliner still has many problems to be solved. Its single engine has only 1450 horsepower, which is far from 1800 horsepower of the Atlantic airliner. At the same time, its cabin is not sealed!
Therefore, other airlines can only watch Hughes and Juncker of Germany occupy this broad market together. Only Atlantic one is competent in the route from America to Europe.
In New York, a city on the east coast of the United States, there are flights every day, so it's nothing strange to look up and see an airliner.
However, Lockhart was still looking up at the sky. He always felt something wrong.
The painting of that airliner is not from Hughes company? In particular, on the side of the fuselage, why is there a cross sign, or black?
Wait, isn't that a German bomber?
At the thought of this, he suddenly burst into a cold sweat. He woke up after drinking two glasses of wine. At the same time, he saw a more terrible scene. Something appeared under the bomber and the other party threw a bomb!
damn!
"Run, German bomber, drop the bomb!" Lockhart shouted loudly. At this time, he stepped up and wanted to leave here.
Since the end of the civil war, the United States has always been quite safe. Even the last World War was only carried out overseas. For Americans, their geographical location determines their psychological advantage.
Now, there are German bombers coming to bomb! This is difficult for many people to accept, or say, without any defense.
Instead of listening to Lockhart, the people in the bar shouted, "Lockhart, have you drunk too much?"
Then, the bomb fell, and the unique frightening sound finally came. At this time, all the people were anxious. They wanted to run out. Unfortunately, the bomb had already fallen before it ran out!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Five or six bombs fell from the sky and fell near the bar. The people in the bar were surprised to find that they were still intact. When they got up from the ground and rushed out, they found that Lockhart fell in a pool of blood.
A bomb exploded not far from him. Shrapnel cut open his stomach. His blood gurgled out. He fell to the ground and wanted to push back his intestines. His hands were full of blood.
"Lockhart, Lockhart!" Field shouted loudly. Several people found a board and carried Lockhart, trying to take him to a nearby hospital.
At this time, the bomber in the sky circled half a circle and dropped the bomb again. This time, its target is the most famous sculpture near the Hudson estuary on Freedom Island in the harbor!
The full name of the statue of liberty is "the bronze statue of Liberty National Monument", and the official name is "freedom shines on the world". It was built by France in 1876 to commemorate the centenary of the victory of the American War of independence. The bronze statue was completed on October 28, 1886.
The goddess of liberty wears ancient Greek style clothes, a radiant crown and seven pointed awns, symbolizing seven continents. The right hand holds the torch symbolizing freedom, and the left hand holds the declaration of independence; At the foot are broken handcuffs, shackles and chains, symbolizing freedom from tyranny.
This sculpture is a symbol of the United States. For many years, the United States has praised this sculpture and is a symbol of the lofty ideal of the American people for democracy and freedom.
Now, the bomber threw a bomb at the sculpture most valued by the American people!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
