Chapter 1975: Accident one

London is so big, where is the German bombing opportunity? do you know? Do you know the route of the Germans? Do you know their fleet structure and time? Okay, there is time on the flyer. Marshal Trenchard assumed that the time above was accurate, but how long did the bombing last? How does the fighter force arrange operations? Where is the default battlefield? How to solve the communication contact? You can't let a large number of planes take a walk over London, and then you can just go up on your own when you see German bombers? Isn't that a fueling tactic? It's just a gift!

And another problem is the flight range of the aircraft. If you take off from the French airport on the western front, then the only two-engine aircraft and a small number of single-engine aircraft that can get to the sky over London, England, and continue to fight, are most of the single-engine aircraft. not enough. How to coordinate planes taking off from various airports in order to launch attacks at the same time is an almost impossible task. The Germans were prepared to bomb London. Although the bombing was carried out in batches, there were more than 200 aircraft in each batch. For the British Air Force on the western front, they could only go from each airport. Taking off dozens of aircraft at most dozens to form a small fleet to collide with the dominant German forces, this is obviously a disadvantage for the British.

"So, tactically speaking, this time, we are fighting at an absolute disadvantage. We don't know the German plan or the scale, and our fleet in France can only be deployed a little bit, the distance is close. And the time spent in the air prevents our strength from forming a fist.” Marshal Trenchard wrote in his diary.

　　Although he was very reluctant, Marshal Trenchard had to carry it out because it was a political figure and a strategic task. He immediately worked with the staff to formulate the battle plan and the battle sequence of the troops. And the deployment of materials and personnel, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. This time, single-engine fighters can't count on it. All interceptors can only be transferred out. As for the result? It can only be said that the plan depends on the person and the result depends on the sky. In the telegrams sent to the various leagues, Marshal Trenchard added the famous Nelson quotation: "England expects everyone to do their duties!"

At the same time, at an air base outside of Paris, the British are accompanying French Chief of Staff Petain to review the newly formed interceptor unit of the Royal Air Force. Here, there are 2 squadrons and a total of 36 interceptors of various types. , It is one of the few full squadrons in the Royal Air Force. Petain looked at the planes with satisfaction and talked with the pilots. However, at this moment, an officer came to the commander of the base and whispered a few words in a low voice.

　　 "What a joke, I am now accompanying the French Chief of Staff. If these planes and pilots are transferred away, would you let the French look at the airport?" the base commander said angrily.

"Your Excellency, the Germans' target is London. This is an order issued by the Prime Minister himself. We must implement it. Your home is also in London. Surely you don't want to see German bombs fall on your homeland, right?" Said the officer.

　　 "Well, get ready now, I will deal with the French." The military order is irreversible, and the base commander can only nod his head in agreement. Soon after the order was issued, the pilot and ground crew rushed to the distant plane, and Petain and his party felt strange.

　　 "It seems to be attacking?" Petain muttered to himself as he looked at the busy airport and the subordinates who were taken aside by the British. He has smelled some factors of instability.

　　 "There are some urgent tasks, you know, this is a time of war, and anything can happen during a war." The commander of the base that ran over explained to Petain.

　　 "I can understand." Petain nodded, and then looked at the British aircraft fleet preparing to take off in the distance. His eyes were full of scrutiny. The British seemed to be hiding something. For example, what went wrong? As a second-tier airport far from the front line, is the situation so severe that the first-line fleet cannot afford it? This is kind of interesting.

　　 "On the front line, the German bombers are coming and we need to intercept them. We designed a trap and waited for the other party to drill in." The British continued to flicker.

　　 "Well, I wish the British Air Force a victory." Petain said lightly, while his eyes were fixed on the plane taking off in the northeast and the auxiliary fuel tank carried under the plane.

　　 "Where is the German bombing this time?" Petain turned and asked.

"It may be the front line in the east. I don't know exactly where it is. After all, I am just the base commander and not the air force commander, and I have been with you. I don't have time to understand these things." The British slapped haha. . The British obviously cannot tell Petain that London is going to be bombed by the Luftwaffe.

　　 "Very good." Petain nodded, then looked at the fighter unit still on the tarmac in the distance and asked, "Why don't the fighter unit act?"

"This is not clear, maybe it is not necessary?" The British thought for a while and said~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This gentleman, we are an alliance. Standing in front of you is the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the French Republic. In the armed forces of various countries, the chief of staff has the right to understand some situations on the battlefield, especially when this happens in the French mainland, your attitude lacks the most basic sincerity and friendliness, everything you just said is to deal with ! Your actions have seriously damaged the alliance between France and Britain. I will explain all the problems to your superiors later! "Beside, a French attaché finally couldn't help it, and said loudly to the British.

　　 "Honorable General, listen to my explanation, I really don't..." The British said in shock.

"Well, there is no need to explain, I know, you have unspeakable concealment. These things may be really important, but they don't seem to have much to do with France. In this case, we don't need to get to the bottom. We should allow our allies to have their own secrets." When interrupted the other party's defense, and finally looked at the second batch of DH11 interceptors that took off, they flew to the northeast as before.

　　 "Let's go." Then Betain took a deep breath and boarded the car returning to Paris with his entourage, leaving only a group of British people to stay at the busy airport.

"Your Excellency, the Chief of Staff, the actions of the British are obviously hiding something. What they hide may be crucial to the situation of the war. They have violated the sincerity and norms that are the basis of the alliance. Why did you let them go like this? "On the way back, the adjutant next to Petain said loudly.
