Imperial Overlord
: One hundred and eleven broken London
"Ugh..." After the air defense siren sounded, the endless fire alarms began to echo over the city of London.
Bombs dropped by German bombers destroyed countless London homes and left many Londoners homeless.
Although the RAF has been trying to intercept these unscrupulous German bombers these days, their efforts have not paid off.
Dowding lost a full 200 fighter jets of various types in a few days, but in the end he could only bleak out of London airspace.
His fighter unit suffered heavy losses, but could not be supplemented accordingly, and had almost lost its most basic combat effectiveness.
After all, he wants to keep at least 200 fighter jets to fight for air supremacy over the battlefield in a possible German landing invasion.
On August 15, the British Air Force finally launched its last brave attempt after two consecutive days of respite.
On the same day, the British took off 170 fighter jets mobilized from various regions to launch the largest ever interception of the German bomber group.
The two sides fought in the sky, and eventually the British Air Force forced the Germans to cancel the bombing of London.
This victory did not inspire Dowding and the Air Force fighter force in his hands, but cost them the last blood.
With a loss of 53 fighters, they shot down 72 German fighters and bombers for one of the largest ever victories.
However, this victory caused the British Air Force to cancel the subsequent interception operation plan, so they had to give up the battle for air supremacy over London.
There are only 300 aircraft left in Dawding's hands that can take off for combat, and Germany still has almost 3,000 combat aircraft of various types bombarding the British mainland indiscriminately.
At the time of the Battle of Britain, the British Air Force had 740 aircraft, while the Luftwaffe had about 3,000 aircraft of various types.
Now, after half a month of consumption, the number of British fighter jets has dropped to 300, while the German aircraft force has almost maintained the strength of the war.
On the one hand, in order to maintain the repressive force, the Luftwaffe mobilized more than 200 aircraft support from various regions, and on the other hand, the production of fighter jets maintained a high output.
On the other hand, in the UK, since the Battle of Britain, the production capacity of fighter jets has been declining. At this stage, almost two-thirds of production has been stopped.
This situation severely reduced the number of British fighter jets and eventually lost the ability to compete with German fighter jets.
On August 16, the Luftwaffe once again visited London on a large scale. This time the bombing was even more massive. It seemed that it was in revenge for the desperate fight of the British Air Force yesterday.
A full 700 sorties of bombers appeared over London, England, dropping 2,100 tons of bombs, turning the whole of London into a sea of fire.
Unlike the usual bombing that only attacked the London factory, this time the bombing covered the entire urban area of London, so the damage this time was so large that it was hopeless.
"Stop! Stop!" Standing in front of his burning house, helpless civilians shouted loudly to the roaring firetruck.
There are still many valuables in their room that need to be rescued before they are destroyed by fire.
But the firetruck that drove quickly across the street was obviously not here to rescue these civilians.
"Get out of the way! Don't get in the way! The order we received is not to rescue this place!" Standing on the fire truck, a firefighter shouted loudly to the citizens on both sides of the car.
"Please! Please! The third floor! My child is on the third floor!" A woman threw herself on the body of the firetruck regardless of his man's pull, and was pulled by the firetruck which was still moving even though it had slowed down A staggering.
She frantically ignored the dirt on her body, got up and continued to pull the firetruck that was driving forward, as if hoping to stop the firetruck.
Looking at the completely collapsed building on the side of the street, there is still thick smoke billowing from it, where is the third floor?
The firefighter looked at the man holding the woman and asked, "What child? Is there someone in the ruins?"
"Our child died a few days ago... My wife was hit so hard that she lost her mind... She didn't stop you on purpose." The man explained sadly as he pulled his wife back.
His words made the woman cry, while people on both sides of the street were watching what was going on here, and some were picking up items dropped on the street.
In each street, there are air defense leaders and corresponding team members, all of whom are civilians living in the streets.
After the bombing, they need to sort out the garbage on the streets, restore traffic as soon as possible, and help rescue some property.
The fire truck was going to another place to put out the fire. The disaster here was obviously not serious enough, so in the end, people were not able to stop the fire truck and let it rush to the place where it was needed more.
Sirens were blared all the way, and soon a military vehicle followed, and soldiers with weapons sat in the car. They wanted to maintain law and order at the disaster relief scene and also help during firefighting.
When they finally stopped the car where they needed to put out the fire, everyone was stunned by what they saw.
Because of the symbol of London, Big Ben, which has been standing there since 1859, has been cracked due to bombing, and the buildings next to it are still burning.
"Quick! We must put out the fire quickly!" The commander of the firefighters loudly reminded his subordinates after jumping off the firetruck.
They were ordered to put out the fire, but they never expected to see Big Ben crumbling under the bombardment.
"My God! Have you abandoned us..." He murmured, looking at the Big Ben clock tower that was still in the fire in the distance.
"Two aerial bombs exploded near Big Ben. Fortunately, the building was relatively strong, so it didn't collapse..." A second lieutenant with a weapon came over and explained the situation to the firefighters who came.
The Germans dropped bombs, which blasted the surrounding buildings, and two other incendiary bombs destroyed the building next to Big Ben, turning it into a sea of fire.
"These **** Germans! They're bombing civilians!" the firefighters complained while laying out the water pipes for the firefighting.
Several soldiers in military uniforms also put down their weapons and helped drag the water pipe to a better position.
The moment they picked up the water pipe, as if a detonating switch had been pressed, a violent vibration suddenly came from below Big Ben.
Then they saw a huge explosion take off, apparently a time-delay bomb.
This bomb became the last bit of force to destroy Big Ben. In this huge explosion, Big Ben, which had stood for 80 years in the UK, collapsed.
The stone walls fell vertically to the ground with the broken dust, and then let the dust below spread in all directions.
In the screams of people in the distance, the main body of Big Ben, the superstructure with the huge dial, completely fell to the ground, making a loud noise like an explosion.
For a while, dust and rubble flew everywhere, and the gravel even splashed on the heads of these firefighters, making a crackling sound when they hit the steel helmets.
Before they realized what was going on, a huge wave of air hit their faces, knocking them all to the ground, and then their bodies were covered by the tumbling dust.
Big Ben, an iconic building in London, has become a piece of rubble and ruins, only the huge clock hands are left, inserted in the ruins like a tombstone.
"Big Ben is down!" a civilian shouted at Big Ben in the distance, and many people around him raised their heads to look at the smoke rising over there.
Buildings here collapse every day, including my own house and my friend's house. As for a clock tower that has nothing to do with me - it can only be exchanged for a sigh.
Standing in front of the microphone of the speech, King George VI of England had to deliver an inspiring speech once again.
He has a severe stutter and can't speak well, but he has to stand up and say something.
Just now, Big Ben collapsed in the fire, London, England is still burning, his country is suffering, and he must face it together.
"My... my valiant... people! Please... believe... our country will win! We... we will... defeat the enemy! Any difficulty... can't, can't knock us down!" he Difficult to speak, uttered incoherent speech.
Compared with the last speech, the practice time left for him was shorter this time, so he also had a harder time speaking~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Just as the voice of his speech echoed through the loudspeaker in the sky above the city of London At the time, some buildings in London were still collapsing and damaged.
A sense of defeat pervaded the city, seeing their fighter jets being shot down and enemy bombs falling on their homes.
They don't even know why they keep fighting - the war has gone so far, what will victory bring to Britain?
"God! Be with us!" Finally, George VI finished his speech with the most fluent conclusion.
However, just after his speech, the shrill air defense sirens sounded, and another wave of German bomber air strikes came again.
In the sky, ju-88 bombers next to each other, under the cover of swarms of **** fighters, opened their magazines.
Accompanied by the whistling wind, the bombs in the magazine began to fall one by one, dragging a long whistle and crashing into the buildings and ground in London.
