Yongle Emperor's grandson: Zhu Yuanzhang with cheats, Zhu Di went crazy

"I'm very curious now, what would their expressions be if they knew that the queen they trusted was one of ours?"

On the beach of Dunkirk, Zhu Zhanjun, Li Jing and Gongsun Qi stood on the beach and looked at the strait across the sea.

After several months of fighting, the Ming army of one million, plus the Russian vassal troops of more than 80 and vassal troops recruited from various places, a total of nearly 500 million troops, finally occupied all the lands except the land on which the sun never sets.

In order to capture this last piece of bone in Europe, Zhu Zhanjun ordered the mobilization of 300 million troops, gathering them in Dunkirk, preparing for a sea crossing and landing operation.

Zhu once suggested that the Queen should directly announce surrender, but Queen Victoria said she couldn't do it.

The British Empire is a constitutional monarchy. Although she, as the queen, holds some power, she is not yet able to command the whole country to follow the next order.

Victoria even said that if she gave the order to surrender today, she would be ousted directly tomorrow.

Zhu Zhanjun expressed his understanding of this, saying that not all kings of countries can have the final say like those in the East.

"Have Wang Zhi and the others arrived?"

Zhu Zhanjun asked Li Jing.

Li Jing replied: "We have arrived last night and are currently resupplying and waiting for the arrival of the last batch of warships in the space."

"According to their investigation, the British Sun has summoned the remaining warships of the Angel Alliance, as well as the warships transferred from the Great Beauty, totaling more than 500 ships, including more than 60 steel warships. They are deployed in the British Sun Sea, awaiting their arrival."

When facing a maritime power like the British Empire, if you want to land on its homeland, you must first destroy its navy.

If you choose to land directly without destroying the enemy's navy, you will pay the price of huge casualties.

Although most of the enemy's more than 500 warships are still wooden sailing warships, which are already behind the steel warships of the current era, it does not mean that they have no combat effectiveness.

For this kind of large-scale landing, most of the Ming army's transport ships were wooden sailing ships.

The wooden sailing ship, which had little firepower, had no ability to resist the wooden battleships of the opposite side.

So if you want to land, you must first kill the enemy's naval forces.

Zhu Zhanjun nodded and said, "Since it's almost done, let's start tomorrow."

The next day arrived quickly. At the airport built in Dunkirk, more than 300 fighter planes, under the command of the control tower, swooped down from multiple runways, formed formations in the air, and flew across the strait.

The weather is very good today, with no clouds in the sky, and you can see clearly below from high above.

"Attention, teams. Our main target today is the enemy's factory barracks. If you find the enemy's airship troops, destroy them immediately."

"Torpedo attack team, your main attack mission is to target the enemy's steel steam battleships. While protecting your own, strike as many enemy battleship targets as possible."

Gao Hang, who was commanding the fighter jets, was giving combat orders to all the fighter jets.

Among the more than 300 fighter planes, 50 were air fortresses, more than 50 were torpedo planes, more than 160 were dive bombers, and the remaining 40 were protection fighters.

Zhu Zhanjun's attack plan against the British Empire was divided into four steps.

They are air force strikes, naval operations, long-range bombing by the Tianji forces, and the final landing operations.

Because of his deliberate actions, the current development of the world's air force has remained limited to airships.

The Ming Dynasty's air force was completely invincible.

The enemy has no ability to resist, and the air force can kill a large number of enemy targets to reduce the pressure on the army. Zhu Zhanjun naturally will not be stingy with those bombs.

The fighter planes rumbled across the strait, and soon the land line appeared before their eyes.

"Teams, start moving!"

After arriving at the land area, Gao Hang gave an order and the fighter formations dispersed and headed towards their respective targets.

A large group of fighter planes flew overhead, startling the lobster soldiers defending the coastline. They quickly rang the warning bell to alert them of the enemy's attack.

However, the air force flying in the sky ignored the ants on the ground and went straight to the foggy city.

The current industrial system is still concentrated around the Fog City. The air force likes this kind of concentrated target the most, because at least they don’t have to fly to other places.

Flying quickly all the way, the navigator soon saw a city shrouded in thick fog in the distance.

“It’s really quite difficult!”

Looking at the city with thick fog even in this clear sky, the navigator couldn't help but complain.

In fact, this is normal. Since the war broke out, the British Empire, which considers itself the world's boss, has expanded the scale of its factories in order to gain benefits from the war. Countless weapons, equipment and supplies are produced every day.

This is the heyday of the steam engine era. With so much coal burned every day and the climate here, it is normal that the fog cannot dissipate.

The Air Force did not hide its actions at all, and flew directly and carelessly towards this foggy city.

"Chi chi chi chi!"

Suddenly, several flares flew out from an area in the fog, and the red light was so eye-catching.

"The target area has been discovered. All aircraft are ready to drop bombs."

The navigator said something, and 50 sky fortresses flew directly to the area where the flare was located.

The situation down there was already in chaos. Some people were running away in panic, while others were hiding in buildings as quickly as possible.

Although they have never seen an airplane, many of them have seen airship bombing performances and understand the horror of such things. People are full of fear of unknown things, just like a rabbit encountering an eagle. Even if it knows that the target is not itself, it will subconsciously hide.

The planes could not see the targets below, nor did they know how much panic their arrival had caused.

Guided by flares, 50 aerial fortresses slowly arrived above the industrial area of ​​the Fog City.

When three green flares were raised below, the navigator connected to the internal headset and shouted, "We have reached the target area and can drop bombs."

Following the navigator's order, the air fortresses lined up in neat rows and opened the bomb bays below.

The bombardier grabbed a handle and slowly pushed it forward, and bombs fell down one by one.

The bomb dived rapidly with the help of inertia, and the tail fin at the rear made a chirping sound under the drive of the air.

The crowd who were fleeing and hiding below were frightened by the dense sound in the sky and screamed loudly.

Suddenly, a black dot broke through the fog and landed heavily on a chimney that was still emitting thick smoke.

"Boom!"

The huge explosion directly collapsed the chimney. Large pieces of rocks and soil fell from the sky, crushing a large group of workers who had no time to dodge.

The observer inside the aerial fortress looked down through the telescope and saw the shock waves caused by the explosion blooming like mushrooms one by one. The powerful force even dispersed the thick fog.

"Most of the targets were hit, today's mission is complete and we are returning!"

The navigator confirmed the effect of the hit, nodded with satisfaction, and patted the pilot on the shoulder. "Let's go back and rest. I heard that there is beef stew with potatoes today. Hey, let's go back and make some noodles. Throw some hand-rolled noodles in it. It will definitely taste delicious."

After dropping the bombs, the sky fortress turned around and went back.

Any single targets that were not destroyed would be followed by Stuka dive bombers, who would put a perfect end to them.

As the Flying Fortress rose high and turned back, the Stukas following behind, under the commander's command, spread out over the entire foggy city like hunting eagles and launched an attack downwards.

However, they kept in mind the orders from above and were not allowed to attack the palace area.

The pilots thought that this order was to reserve a palace for the king. In fact, this order was given because they were afraid that these guys would lose control and accidentally bomb Victoria, one of their own.

The crowd, who had not yet recovered from the bombing, turned pale instantly when they heard the death vulture-like screams in the sky.

"Boom boom boom!"

It was not until this moment that the city's anti-aircraft weapons launched a counterattack into the sky.

Too late.

Coupled with the influence of fog in the foggy city and the fact that it was their first time facing an airplane, they were unable to aim at the target at all.

Today is a nightmare from hell for the people of the foggy city.

The overwhelming bombing and the strange iron bird that swooped down with a scream like a devil brought them deep fear.

At night, some outsiders who were worried that they would be attacked again the next day fled the foggy city overnight.

Those who cannot leave can only pray in their hearts that it will rain heavily tomorrow so that the enemy will not come.

Even more workers refused to go to work tomorrow, saying that they could earn money again, but if they lost their lives, they would lose everything.

By dusk, the British side counted that the attack they suffered today had caused more than 10,000 casualties.

In addition to the personnel loss, the loss in the factory area was even more painful for the Prime Minister.

The families of those who died are now protesting and cursing loudly outside the council hall.

Listening to the angry curses outside, the Prime Minister said with a gloomy face:

"Before those guys attacked, flares were raised on the ground. Enemy spies have infiltrated our city."

He raised this issue because he was unable to resolve the enemy's attack from the sky.

But he had to give an explanation to the people's anger, so he tried to avoid the important issues and first captured more spies to give an explanation to the outsiders, and then slowly deal with the rest of the issues.

He looked at a man with a cold expression and said, "Mr. Jafar, you are responsible for this matter. I hope you can give me a perfect explanation before dawn."

The man with a cold expression didn't explain. He nodded, turned around and walked out.

"Dang, clang, clang, clang..."

However, before he took a step out of the door, there was a sudden sound of bronze bells colliding outside, along with exclamations and shouts.

"Demons, those sky demons are coming again, everyone run!"

The Prime Minister's face changed and he rushed out of the meeting hall.

Although the enemy did not attack here during the day, it does not mean that they will not attack next time.

The same was true for the others. No one cared about whose status was nobler, and they all crowded together to run out.

When he was pushed out the door, the Prime Minister looked up at the sky, his eyes full of resentment and anger! (End of this chapter)
