The North American Airlines plane flew up and down in front of the British people, performing a series of maneuvers such as circling, climbing, and diving. At this time, a simulated target and a soft airship slowly rose into the sky. Pilot Rice flew towards the hydrogen airship, pointed the nose at the airship, and then fired two so-called "fish in the air" "Thunder" was shot out from under the wing. One of the two "air torpedoes" trailing a long and beautiful orange tail flame missed and passed by the airship, while the other accurately hit the target and struck violently. Exploded. The hydrogen airship was torn apart by the explosion, and then the hydrogen inside was ignited and exploded violently, turning into a huge fireball in an instant. As for the "air torpedo" that failed to hit, it also exploded in the air after flying for a certain distance. "Novel" "It's wonderful! A very beautiful performance." Brigadier General Wellesley took the lead in applauding. While applauding, he turned to Donald and said. Of course, this kind of aircraft cannot be used to intercept German Zeppelins at any time, because this kind of aircraft has no night flying capability at all. Second, as far as Donald knows, for a long time, no major laboratory has been able to produce an aircraft capable of performing interception missions at night. This means that if the Germans come over for bombing at night, this kind of fighter may not be useful. However, this is not a big problem, because although the Zeppelin can fly at night, navigation at night will become a huge problem. In that era, aircraft navigation almost entirely relied on guidance from landmarks. But at night, the ground landmarks are completely invisible, and in this era there is no GPS, Beidou, Galileo or other things. Even the technology of measuring the angle between two radio base stations for navigation, as was done during World War II, has not yet been invented, at least not by the Germans. Therefore, whether the target can be found during night flight bombing is a big problem. In later World War II, according to British statistics, only a little over 20% of bombers were able to fly within five miles of the target and drop bombs during night bombing. The other bombers didn't know where they dropped their bombs. And this is achieved under the premise of possessing radio navigation technology. Of course, some people have to ask, didn¡¯t the Germans successfully drop bombs into London at night last time? Yes, the Germans' first operation was quite successful, but that was based on the British not conducting lights out at night. Since the bombing, the British immediately ordered a comprehensive blackout in all cities and villages in the UK. The street lights on the streets will no longer be on at night. Not only that, the police will patrol the streets and carefully check whether the doors of each household are closed tightly, whether the windows are closed tightly, and whether there is any light coming from their homes. It leaks from the cracks in doors or windows. If that family is found to be so careless, the police will not hesitate to issue them a hefty fine. Therefore, rich people hang thick cotton curtains behind their windows, which are only used in winter. However, the poor people who have no money have a much simpler solution, that is, they do not light the lights at all. After taking such measures, the German night attack became completely impossible. Therefore, Macdonald's plane did not have the ability to fly at night, so naturally it was not a big problem. Because the performance was a success and the British were in urgent need of such a thing, the British ordered a thousand of these aircraft from Macdonald and named them "Sea Breeze" fighters. At the same time, the two parties also signed a relevant technology transfer contract. The British agreed to pay for the goods in gold. A month later, the first batch of "Sea Breeze" fighter jets and the accompanying "air torpedoes" were loaded on cargo ships and sent to the United Kingdom for use in defending London. ¡ Hitler¡¯s symptoms have gotten much better, and he can barely walk on his own with the help of crutches. As for complete recovery, or even returning to the battlefield, this is almost impossible to achieve in a short time. The reason why I say almost means that in fact, this can be done, but for this, a lot of money must be spent, and if there is so much money, it is used to buy artillery shells or other things, for the war It was more effective than using it on a disabled soldier, so Hitler was given up on treatment, thrown out of the hospital, and became a homeless man again. ¡° Moreover, this time, Hitler¡¯s condition was even worse, much worse than when he was expelled from art school, because his health was still very poor. So much so that he could not find any job when almost all factories in Germany were operating at full capacity and the labor force was quite stretched due to the large number of young people serving as soldiers on the front lines. Think about it, which company is willing to recruit a corporal in the imperial army who has served gloriously to perform on the battlefield?He was brave and tenacious. He once captured five French soldiers in a battle, and fought for the country while being severely poisoned until he fainted. As a result, he received a medal. His body collapsed and he could only walk ten meters. A fighting hero who sits down to catch his breath and can no longer make money for the company, but needs to be paid instead? Therefore, Hitler could only survive on the small amount of subsidies given by the government to disabled soldiers. To be honest, in order to encourage soldiers to fight bravely, when Germany set the standards for subsidies for disabled soldiers, the standards were not low. Although it is not enough for a disabled soldier to live a good life, it is still enough to maintain basic food and clothing. Especially for a disabled soldier like Hitler who has made military exploits and received medals, the subsidies he receives will be A little more. However, "enough to maintain food and clothing" refers to the time when this standard was formulated. At that time, the value of the German mark was very stable and prices were not high. So with this money, although I couldn't eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, I could buy something that tasted like shit every day. It¡¯s okay to fill up your stomach with the same brown bread. However, since the war began, prices have begun to get out of control, and the prices of daily necessities have risen rapidly. Therefore, the subsidies for disabled soldiers, which were only enough to sustain their lives, immediately became insufficient. But Hitler had no other source of living except relying on this subsidy. Although he once again picked up the paintbrush, set up a drawing board, and placed a broken hat upside down next to the drawing board, and became a street painter again, at the end of the day, the coins in the hat were still very few. On this day, Hitler had been blowing cold wind on the streets of Leipzig all day again. When he was about to pack his things and go back, he suddenly heard a voice: "Adolf! Is it you?" Hitler turned his head and recognized himself. A former comrade named Matra. This man was injured by a landmine during the Battle of the Marne, so he was sent to a field hospital. Hitler never saw him again after that, but he didn't expect to meet him here. Hitler noticed that Matra was on crutches, and upon closer inspection, he discovered that he only had one foot. "Matra, your right foot" "It was amputated. Those damn French mines were just enough to blow off the sole of the foot." Matra was very calm. "Adolf, my friend, you seem to be looking very bad, what's wrong with you" The two people talked like this, and both of them learned about the other's subsequent experiences and current situation. Hitler knew that Matra had now entered the factory and worked as a worker on the assembly line. "My job doesn't require me to move around. It just requires me to sit there. When each part comes to me, I turn it over. It's very simple, but it's also very hard. But I can't do it because I have to eat. Yeah. Bread is too expensive now, and money is becoming less and less valuable. I will starve to death sooner or later with that disability allowance!" "Isn't it?" Hitler replied, "I only eat two meals a day. It¡¯s time to eat. The price of bread has risen so fast. If it continues like this, I can only eat one meal a day. You blame those damn British guys. It is said that it is because their navy has blocked our shipping lanes. The front line requires a large amount of supplies, which makes our supplies scarce and prices soaring." At this point, Hitler couldn't help but shook his head slightly. "But that's not what I heard, Adolf." Matra's voice was a little sad. "I heard that, in fact, although other materials are indeed scarce, we are not actually short of food. The German land does not Shrinking, although a large number of men went to the battlefield, our land was not abandoned. The women in the countryside still took good care of the land. Moreover, Adolf, think about it, when the war started, this year's food was basically mature. , later, after the harvest was completed, the news said that this year was a good harvest year. Germany has not needed to import food, and it can even export food to foreign countries. The war has only been going on for a few months, and other things may be in short supply, but how can that be possible? "What about the shortage?" "Then why did the price of food rise so much? Where did the food go?" Hitler couldn't help but ask. ¡°I heard that some Jews bought all the food and hoarded it. I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s true or not,¡± Matra said. "It's probably true." Hitler, who was packing his things, stopped, thought for a moment, and replied, "Matra, think about it, although the food is enough now, if, I mean, if the war continues , just like the Seven Years War, which lasted for several years, most of our fertilizer factories were converted to produce explosives. As a result, there was less fertilizer available for use in the farmland. In addition, women tended the crops and were not as good as men anyway. The food harvest will probably fail in the future, so by then, those guys will definitely want to stock up on food now., deliberately raising prices, so that after the war is over, all of Europe will be short of food. By then these damn Jews! The whole of Germany is fighting for the future of the country, but they are struggling to make money. They are not worthy of being called Germans, or even human beings! "
