Chapter 751 Can't let the citizens leave 7)

During World War II, there were many urban battles, but ordinary urban battles were battles between soldiers.

Although the city's various buildings are still there, the citizens in the city have long been evacuated. Fighting is the business of soldiers and has nothing to do with ordinary civilians.

This was 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 various industries, schools, institutions and units were relocated backwards. Women, children, and elderly people left the city, and men were all assigned to the army and became soldiers.

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

Exeter did not have this step, because the German army attacked too quickly. Almost after they learned that the Germans had landed, Exeter was surrounded, so even if the residents of the city wanted to retreat, it was too late.

This situation also occurred when fighting France, but France did not resist within the city. When they moved to Paris, France directly declared Paris an unguarded city and gave it to the Germans to occupy it.

However, Exeter did not directly surrender to Germany. The troops left here launched resistance to the German army in densely populated areas. Although they achieved good results, there were still casualties among civilians.

Of course, these casualties must be thrown on the heads of the Germans. It was the barbarity of the Germans, which led to casualties of British civilians! These hatreds need to be recorded by the British and continued to fight to defeat Germany.

But now, suddenly, the advantages that I finally accumulated were gone.

The Germans actually used tricks to drive away these citizens. Once the citizens left, their troops would be like fish that left the water and would not be able to survive.

No, no citizens can be allowed to leave!

After figuring out these things, Bernard asked someone to block the intersection, and he also began an exhortation that he was not good at.

At this important intersection, Bernard stood on the top of a truck and shouted to the surrounding citizens.

"If you go out now, you will be trapped by the Germans, and the Germans will throw you all into the concentration camp!" Bernard shouted loudly: "Don't go out, otherwise you will be fooled!"

"Then if we don't go out, we will be waiting for death if we stay here!" Someone shouted immediately below.

The Germans have issued an ultimatum. By two o'clock, they will demolish the city! It can be imagined that the Germans must have used some powerful force to razed the entire city to the ground!

Although this kind of bomb has not appeared yet, since the beginning of the war, the weapons brought out by the Germans have been unbelievable, and they are simply beyond this era. Therefore, it is entirely possible if the Germans continue to come up with more terrifying weapons.

Staying here is a dead end!

"Everyone listens to me!" Bernard shouted loudly: "We Exeter have a history of two thousand years. We have experienced countless wars here, but we, Britain, have always been the final winner!"

"The blood of the forefront is inspiring us. For victory, we don't care about blood sacrifice. Moreover, the scenic spots and various buildings here, do you have the heart to watch them destroy?"

Bernard reached out and pointed to the Exeter Cathedral not far away: "The building there was built in 1050 to deal with the Vikings, moving the seat of the president from nearby towns to Exeter, and our important theologian Richard Hook (the statue of our Exeter bishop is located. Do you have the heart to watch this building be destroyed?"

Demolition of the entire city? The Germans were so angry! Bernard looked at the people around him and his emotions were gradually mobilized: "As long as we are all in the city, the Germans dare not treat our city like this. As a nation standing on the European continent for more than two thousand years, we must have the backbone of our nation."

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

"Run!"

"Run quickly!"

"It is safe to go out of the city, and the Germans are going to bomb the city!"

No one can face it calmly in front of the god of death, and anyone wants to survive.

In the sky, it was not the bomber.

Second Lieutenant Drobinsky flew here in a clumsy fighter plane two hundred kilometers away.

The ones who walked with him were the entire 264th squadron, and they were equipped with new British fearless fighters.

Second Lieutenant Drobinsky, originally a Polish, came to England after Poland was destroyed, and changed from a homeless man who received relief to the current British Air Force volunteer pilot.

There is no need to say the sadness in the middle, but he himself has a strong sense of seeking war. In his eyes, the Germans are his mortal enemies.

Unfortunately, his plane was not powerful.

Now, the best fighter recognized by the UK is still the Spitfire. From the bombing of the Germans, it can be seen that the factories that produce Spitfire and the factories that may produce Spitfire were all blown up by the Germans, which shows that the Germans were afraid of Spitfire fighters.

This also led to a serious shortage of spitfire production. Now, volunteer pilots like Lieutenant Drobinsky cannot fly to Spitfire fighters at all. It is said that it is good to be assigned to the current fighter jets, but unfortunately no one likes them.

Aviation technology developed rapidly in the 1920s and 1930s. After research, the Royal Air Force believed that the multi-engine and multi-turret designs had a speed firepower of more than fighter jets and broke into enemy airspace alone for bombing.

Therefore, they were whimsical and installed "power turrets" on fighters to counterattack. The fearless fighter was thus created.

The Pton Paul Company successfully bid for the first time. In August 2017, it tested the prototype for the first time. Soon after, it was officially named the Fearless MK.i fighter and was finalized and put into production.

But it was slowed down afterwards, and the reason was very simple, the British military expenditure was tight. It was not until the beginning of this year that the Royal Air Force only obtained three fearless aircraft to be put into operation. After the war began, such aircraft were mass-produced.

As for what this kind of aircraft is like, you can tell by looking at the nickname "daffy" given by the British pilot for it. This word means stupidity and madness.

However, Drobinsky had no disgust. He was satisfied if he could fly into the sky and fight against the Luftwaffe. 18319
