Chapter 761 The House Leaks in the Middle of the Night (Plus 2)

Exeter was violently demolished by the Germans, and the entire city was turned into flat ground, which lasted only half an hour!

The Germans kept their word, and still stayed in the city. No one left alive, not just people, not even an ant.

The news quickly spread throughout the UK.

At this time, it was already dark.

Dozens of hours of continuous fatigue made Churchill's face extremely pale, and when he heard the news from Exeter, there was no blood on his face, and his fingers were trembling involuntarily with a cigar between them. on.

Churchill was not stupid, he realized something very quickly.

This is the most arrogant threat from the Germans!

Today the Germans can destroy Exeter, tomorrow the Germans will destroy London!

If the Germans announced that they were going to demolish London and demand that all Londoners leave the city, what would they do?

Stay here and become a martyr? Such an order, even Churchill could not issue, and, how could the people below listen to his inhumane order?

He could sacrifice the citizens of Exeter, in order to arouse the will of resistance in the whole of England, but he could not sacrifice the citizens of London, so that he would only be left in obscurity.

"The Germans used a weapon that we've never seen before. It's like an incendiary bomb, but it's more powerful than an incendiary bomb, and it has a shock wave."

The person in charge of MI5 is also very helpless. The intelligence system has taken pictures of the images there and sent them over. The intelligence placed in front of everyone is telling the fact that Britain, in the face of such weapons, seems to be There is no longer any need to resist.

The confidence that Churchill had finally stirred up during the bombing by the Germans disappeared like this, and even those present knew that this war was no longer necessary.

Maybe, seeking peace like France did is the last resort?

Churchill's eyes were gloomy, he didn't speak, only the hand that was still shaking slightly seemed to indicate that his mood was fluctuating at this time.

"Prime Minister, I just received news that the Oregon Star, a cargo ship that the United States supported us, suffered an accident 100 nautical miles from the port. The ship sank, and the cargo loaded on the Oregon Star also followed. The ship sank."

What a bad news! When they heard the news, everyone present became even more speechless. To use the old oriental proverb, this is called a house leak and it rains overnight!

Everyone present knew the inside story. Last time Churchill's secret visit, he finally reached an agreement with the United States. The United States decided to support Britain in fighting against Germany, so as not to dominate the German family.

This ship is the cargo supported by the United States, the most important of which is the latest tank developed by the United States. In terms of performance, even if it is not capable of suppressing the German Panther tank, it will at least not fall behind.

At this time when the British mainland was attacked by Germany, the tanks from the United States were even more important. Now it's better, it has sunk. Hundreds of tanks are gone!

Of course they were about to cry.

Churchill's lips twitched a few times, and he felt the urge to faint. Suddenly, something came to his mind.

"Good news, this is really good news!" Churchill stood up and said to the others: "How could this cargo ship sink for no reason? It was not in bad weather at all, but was sunk by a German submarine. of!"

Churchill's words inspired everyone in an instant, and indeed, it makes sense!

Germany has declared war on Britain, and Germany takes British cargo ships quite seriously, especially those carrying arms, which are often sunk by German submarines. The Germans are simply unscrupulous and actually attack the merchant ships!

However, the Germans are also principled. They only attack merchant ships flying the British flag. They have never provoke American cargo ships. Obviously, Germany is also afraid of provoke the Americans at this time.

The United Kingdom, however, hopes that the United States will immediately enter the water and follow the United Kingdom to fight Germany. Now, it is just an opportunity!

Churchill was excited. He looked at the head of MI5: "Just right, our black plan can also be launched. This time, it must be successful. This is related to whether we can survive in the UK!"

Facing Churchill's gaze, the person in charge nodded: "We will definitely succeed!"

On the European continent, the fire of war is still burning, but for the New World, the war in the Old World is just a topic after dinner every day, and even the pages of the newspapers are put on Rita Hayworth, the Hollywood Below are the sexiest female stars.

New York.

The sea breeze blows the sea, the waves roll, the Atlantic Ocean, and there are often months of bad weather.

In the bar in the port, the lights were shining, and the sailors returning from sea were shirtless, showing their muscles and dark skin.

"Hey, York, I heard that you went to Brazil a few months ago, how was it?" a bearded sailor said to the person who came in.

"What else can I do? After I went, I stayed on the shore for half a month. The women there, tsk tsk. Field, if you go there, you will definitely be sucked dry." The man named York said that all men understood topic.

For sailors, they drift on the sea all the year round. There are only a few people on a cargo ship. Therefore, as long as they get off the port, they will go for fun.

The two were chatting when they saw the door outside opened and another old acquaintance came in.

"It's bad luck, it's bad luck." The old acquaintance came in and said to the two of them.

"Lockheit, I heard that your ship sank?" The two took back their joke and asked the companion solemnly.

For sailors, the last thing they want to hear is the word, shipwreck, and when they learned that the Oregon Star cargo ship sank, the two almost mourned the old man.

"Yeah." Lockheed said: "On the whole ship, I was the only one who was lucky. God bless me, I was wearing a life jacket and floated for more than 50 nautical miles before being rescued by a ship."

"I heard that you encountered a storm?" York asked.

Lockheed shook his head: "Of course not! When the weather was calm, a huge explosion suddenly occurred at the bottom of our ship, and the ship soon sank."

After he finished saying this, the whole lively bar calmed down instantly, and everyone heard what he just said.

There's an explosion on the bottom of the boat!

what does that mean?

"Did you run into a submarine? What was transported in your ship?" After a long time, a voice asked.
