Chapter 651
The bomber, after dropping the bomb, flew away, leaving behind the fighter jets, and a battle attacked without any results, so they were very disappointed.
After going to Libya, they almost never participated in any battles. They finally waited for one time, and it ended like this, so of course they couldn't bear it.
Of course you can't just fly away! Facing the British warships, they simply swooped down again and again and fired at the British sailors with their machine guns.
Of course, the German soldiers were disciplined, and the British soldiers who had jumped on the lifeboats, they were not hit, but not all the battleships were sunk, and some peripheral destroyers were not affected.
The FW190 fighters dived down again and again, strafing these destroyers, and their angles were very tricky, almost all of which were blind spots for the destroyers' anti-air firepower.
In this way, they did not leave contented until they had run out of ammunition.
The battlefield continues to be left to the French. If the French still don't know what to do until now, then they are really stupid!
The French naval fleet that rushed out of the port, of course, rushed up first, wanting to kill the remaining British warships, but before they could start, the remaining destroyers that could not escape raised the white flag.
It seems that they are here to capture the French fleet? It's a pity that they are now prisoners!
The battle ended in this way. The French navy suffered for a long time and had to salvage the British soldiers who fell into the water. It had nothing to do with friendship. This was purely a task of the navy.
The news of the unfortunate destruction of the H fleet quickly reached the UK. When he heard the news, Churchill sat down on the chair with a heavy butt, and even the cigar fell to the ground.
German, German again!
Our fleet was almost successful. As a result, the German bombers appeared, and a few bombers solved our fleet?
"We can already confirm that the Germans have developed new weapons." The head of MI5 told Churchill: "The Germans have improved their bombs, added remote control devices, and can accurately hit our ships. "
The Germans must have new weapons. The first time Scapa Flow was attacked, British intelligence agencies became active. Now, based on this attack, they can finally conclude this conclusion.
"Their remote control must use radio, so as long as we intercept their radio frequencies and perform corresponding interference, we can make their bombs ineffective." The person in charge continued.
Churchill didn't answer him, it was already too late. If there was such a jamming device in Scapa Flow, it would still come in handy. Now, almost all of our warships have been blown up!
Although some French warships were captured, what was the use? The last aircraft carrier, the last battleship, has sunk!
Churchill did not speak, and the whole conference room calmed down until a few hours later, the foreign secretary ran in: "The Petain government has issued a serious protest to us, accusing us of attacking the French fleet."
This matter, of course, is not over yet. Although the British fleet suffered a big loss, after all, it was the British initiative, and the United Kingdom was the one who attacked! France strongly condemns this kind of behavior!
"Let the French condemn it," Churchill said.
He already has the meaning of breaking the pot, condemning it, and condemning it. What else do the French want?
compensation? What a joke!
Churchill stood up and walked to the front of the window. As the breeze blew his hair, his face, and his fake beard, his mind gradually became clearer.
This incident can only pass like this. Now, what is most needed is how to face the German attack and the British defense.
"The Soviets, haven't agreed to attack Germany yet?" he continued.
Even India was going to give up. For this reason, there was almost a quarrel in the parliament. As a result, when it came to the Soviet Union, there was no response!
"The Soviets, who are currently planning a huge campaign against Finland, have no energy to take into account the German side," said the foreign secretary.
The sudden appearance of Finland immediately attracted the attention of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union vented all its anger on Finland. At this time, the Soviet Union simply did not have the energy to take into account the German problem!
"It seems that we can only rely on ourselves." Churchill said: "Tomorrow, I will go to the House of Commons and give another speech. As long as we are determined, we will not fail, and we will be able to protect our country. !"
Finland, there must be some Germans out there! It is a pity that our side is now incapable of intervening in the war between Finland and the Soviet Union.
Originally, Britain and France were big countries in Europe, and they could decide the order here. Unfortunately, with the annihilation of small countries such as Austria and Poland, which were covered by Britain and France, they no longer had much prestige. In the eyes of other countries, Britain and France could always be seen will sell them.
Absolutely will not fail!
Churchill has always relied on this firm belief.
At this time, he always thought that his actions had failed, and he wanted to restore his dignity, but he never thought that the French fleet was attacked by the British navy, and they also wanted to restore their dignity!
For the French fleet, the British attack was an insult to them, and they had to get it back!
Just as the enmity between Britain and France deepened, in the north, another war was about to be staged.
Finland.
Whether in terms of land area or population, this is not a confrontation of the same level.
Finland's population is only 3.7 million, and only 33,000 troops can be mobilized. In the Soviet Union, the troops of a military region far outnumbered the other.
However, Finland will never surrender! After being intimidated by the Soviet Union, the three Baltic countries joined the Soviet Union, and Finland will never!
It is very different from history. The Soviet-Finnish war in history was launched in winter, and now, the weather is not cold enough.
At the same time, in history, Britain and France provided great assistance to Finland, and were even willing to dispatch an expeditionary force to help Finland, but now that France has perished, the United Kingdom is overwhelmed, and even if Britain has the ability, it is afraid to provoke the Soviet Union.
So, Finland seems to be isolated and helpless, but fortunately, God has not abandoned them!
A Junkers-52 transport plane landed at the airport near Helsinki, Finland, and a serious German general emerged from it.
Willem-Joseph-Franz-von Loeb, Germany's best defensive master!
