The Third Reich

Chapter 753 Can't Let Citizens Leave (Plus 7)

In World War II, there were many urban battles, but in general urban battles, it was a battle between soldiers.

Although the various buildings in the city are still there, the citizens in the city have long been evacuated. Fighting is a matter of soldiers, not ordinary civilians.

This is especially true when fighting the Soviet Union.

Not to mention anything else, for example, when the German army was about to move to Moscow, Moscow began to evacuate, and all kinds of industries, schools, institutions were relocated backwards, women, children, the elderly, left the city, as for men, they were all evacuated. Integrate into the army and become a soldier.

In short, when the war came, street fighting was almost always a showdown between soldiers.

And Exeter did not have this step, because the German army attacked too fast, almost after they learned that the Germans had landed, Exeter was surrounded, so the residents of the city, even the It's too late to want to retreat.

This also happened when they fought against France, but there was no resistance in the city in France. When they moved to Paris, France directly declared Paris an undefended city and gave it to the Germans to occupy it.

Exeter, on the other hand, did not give up directly to Germany. The troops who stayed here launched resistance to the German army in densely populated areas. Although they achieved good results, the casualties of civilians were still high. some.

These casualties, of course, were thrown on the Germans' heads. It was the barbarism of the Germans that resulted in the casualties of British civilians! These hatreds need to be recorded by the British and continue to fight to defeat Germany.

But now, all of a sudden, the advantage that he managed to accumulate is gone.

The Germans actually used tricks to drive these citizens away. Once the citizens left, these troops, like fish out of water, could not survive.

No, you can't let the citizens leave!

After figuring this out, Bernard asked people to block the intersection, and he also began to exhort him, which he is not good at.

At this important intersection, Bernard stood on top of a truck, shouting to the citizens around him.

"If you go out now, you will fall for the Germans, and the Germans will throw you all into concentration camps!" Bernard shouted loudly: "Don't go out, or you will be fooled!"

"Then if we don't go out, we'll be waiting to die if we stay here!" Someone shouted immediately below.

The Germans have given an ultimatum that at two o'clock they will demolish the city! It is conceivable that the Germans must have used some powerful force to raze the entire city to the ground!

Although this kind of bomb has not yet appeared, since the beginning of the war, the weapons that the Germans have come up with are unbelievable, and they are beyond this era. Weapons are also entirely possible.

Staying here is a dead end!

"Everyone listen to me!" Bernard shouted loudly: "We in Exeter have a history of two thousand years. Here, we have experienced countless wars, but we, Britain, are always the final victors!"

"The blood of the front row is motivating us. In order to win, we don't care about bloodshed and sacrifice. Also, do you have the heart to watch the ruins of the places of interest here and the various buildings here?"

Bernard stretched out his hand and pointed to Exeter Cathedral not far away: "The building there, built in 1050, was to deal with the Vikings and move the bishopric from a nearby town to Exeter, And a statue of our important theologian, Richard Hooker, is erected in the seat of our Bishop of Exeter. Do you have the heart to see such a building destroyed?"

Demolition of entire cities? The Germans are so loud! Bernard looked at the people around him, and his emotions were gradually aroused by him: "As long as we are all in the city, the Germans would not dare to regard our city as something that has stood on the European continent for more than 2,000 years. We must have the backbone of our nation.”

At this moment, the roar of the plane appeared again in the sky. When the sound in the sky was heard, in an instant, Bernard's efforts were all in vain.

"Run!"

"Hurry up and run!"

"Out of the city, it's safe outside the city, the Germans are going to bomb the city!"

No one can face death calmly, and everyone wants to live.

In the sky, it is not a bomber.

Second Lieutenant Drobinsky, driving a clumsy fighter jet, flew here from a field airfield two hundred kilometers away.

He was accompanied by the entire 264 Squadron, which was equipped with the new British dreadnought fighter.

Second Lieutenant Drobinski was originally a Polish. After Poland was wiped out, he came to the United Kingdom. From a homeless person receiving relief, he became a volunteer pilot of the British Air Force.

The heartache in the middle does not need to be said to himself, and he himself has a strong sense of seeking war. In his eyes, the Germans are his mortal enemies.

Unfortunately, his plane was ineffective.

Now, the best fighter jet recognized by the United Kingdom is still the Spitfire. It can be seen from the German bombing that the factories producing Spitfire, and the factories that may produce Spitfire, have all been blown up by the Germans. Spitfires are scared.

This has also led to a serious shortage of Spitfire production. Now, volunteer pilots like Lieutenant Drobinski can't fly Spitfire fighters at all. It is not bad to be able to classify the current fighter jets. , unfortunately, no one likes it.

Aviation technology developed rapidly in the 1920s and 1930s. The British Royal Air Force researched that heavy bombers with multiple engines and multiple turrets could surpass fighter jets in speed and firepower and break into enemy airspace alone to bomb.

Therefore, they whimsically installed "power turrets" on the fighters as a countermeasure. The Dreadnought Fighter was born.

The Proton Paul company successfully bid, and in August 1937, the first test flight prototype was officially named the dreadnought MK.I fighter, and it was finalized and put into production.

But then it slowed down, for the simple reason that the British military was tight. Until the beginning of this year, the RAF had only received three Dreadnoughts into combat. After the war began, the aircraft was mass-produced.

As for what this kind of aircraft is like, you can see the nickname "Daffy" that the British pilots took for it. This word means stupidity and madness.

However, Dlobinski has no reason to dislike it. If he can fly into the sky and fight with the Luftwaffe, he is satisfied.
