British betrayal?

That is simply a normal thing. Since the day England existed in the world, has he ever had a history of not betraying his friends? It was even more common for them to abandon their allies. It was left to France decades later, and the French

It's so stupid that you can't even cry.

Cheating your father, cheating your allies, cheating your friends, this is the traditional British program!

It's not an English tradition to trick your friends into trying to get rid of them.

But now, no one cares about these things. For those people who were frightened by the airship attack, they only have one thought now, which is to escape!

Get out of this damn place!

Since the war broke out, they have heard too many terrifying legends about airships, such as nails and bombs. In short, airships are definitely an extremely terrifying existence. In the past, they only heard about it through hearsay, but what about now?

A bomb is about to fall on your head, why don't you run away?

After all, it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages!

After a day and night of chaos, Buenos Aires finally calmed down. This city with a population of nearly 300,000 people suddenly calmed down. The whole city was quiet and seemed to have turned into a

Dead city.

It is not a dead city, but an empty city.

The people who left Buenos Aires did not go far. Many people just evacuated to the manor in the suburbs. They stood in the manor and stared at the city. They seemed to be waiting for destruction and their home.

of destruction.

In the suburbs, many ladies held parasols and wore gorgeous dresses. They seemed to be attending a dance and wanted to witness the destruction of the city with their own eyes.

Of course, what they want to witness is not just the destruction of the city. They want to witness a wonderful performance that they have never heard of or seen before. If such an opportunity is missed, they may never have the opportunity to witness it again.

"General, do you know Pompeii?"

Edward Thornton glanced at his pocket watch expectantly, and then asked.

"It was destroyed by a volcanic eruption!"

"I know,"

Henrys said.

"How lucky we are to be able to witness the destruction of a city!"

In fact, Henrys also changed into a dress. For him, this was also a rare feast! As a witness of this feast, returning to London would be enough for him to boast in the London social circle for several days, or even years.

That's awesome!

This incident will even become the most bragging thing in his naval career. Maybe some people have fought in wars, some have experienced wars, and some have experienced many risks, but who has ever witnessed a city?

What about the destruction?

At least among the Royal Navy, he was the first to witness all this. As for the other people in the fleet, he was not even within the scope of his consideration.

"Yeah, Hunter!"

Henrys turned to the adjutant and ordered.

"Are the tables and chairs ready?"

"Yes General!"

The adjutant wearing a formal uniform replied respectfully.

"Edward, let's have a drink together for this special day!"

“Definitely should have a drink!”

Of course, Edward Thornton would not refuse this invitation.

After that, the two of them walked towards the bridge, where a small table and two folding chairs had been placed. They were sitting there as if attending a picnic dinner, admiring the feast that was about to be staged.

.

However, unlike others, for Sarnto, as president, his mood was complicated. He was in a manor outside the city and looked at Buenos Aires in the distance.

, with sadness in his expression.

"God, curse those damn Southern Chinese, how could they bear to destroy such a beautiful city?"

While cursing the South Chinese, Sarnto saw those people dressed up in the distance, like people attending a banquet. How could they face the destruction of the city so easily?

What a bunch of heartless guys!

This is not a party, but destruction!

do you know?

It's destruction!

As president, Sarnto never imagined that one day Buenos Aires would disappear from the world in this way.

What annoyed him even more was that, regardless of whether they were foreigners or not, the Argentinians treated them as if they were attending an unprecedented feast, with everyone dressed in costumes and waiting expectantly for everything to come.

It seems that for them, this is a feast!

However, Sarnto's grief and anger obviously cannot affect the people who are spectators. Unlike ordinary people who feel sad about their houses in the city, for the rich, they look at the sky with curiosity, waiting, just like

It's like waiting for the dance to start, waiting for the protagonist to appear.

Their expressions were anxious with a hint of excitement, and their excitement was full of curiosity!

curiosity!

Out of curiosity, people dressed in costumes waited for the curtain to begin.

If Wang Xinyue on the airship knew that men and women on the ground were actually dressed up in costumes, waiting to witness the destruction of a city, he would probably curse him.

For him, it was not easy to carry out this mission. It was a bombing run of hundreds of kilometers and required a fourteen-hour voyage.

They have been flying in the air since taking off yesterday afternoon. In the past fourteen hours, a huge formation of sixteen airships began the first long-range bombing in human history, even though the front line was hundreds of miles away.

Kilometers, but so what?

There is no defense line in the sky, and there is no depth. As long as they are willing, they can fly there, let alone hundreds of kilometers, even thousands of kilometers. Of course, this is just a thought. After all, their airship can only travel at a speed of

It's only a measly 30 kilometers.

“It’s Buenos Aires!”

Suddenly, accompanied by somewhat excited shouts, the officers and soldiers in the airship started shouting excitedly.

Finally reached the goal!

“This city is so beautiful!”

Viewed from the air, Wang Xinyue couldn't help but applaud the city's planning - the four corners of every block in the city were cut off. Such ingenuity gave Putrajaya a special sense of beauty.

“It now appears that Charles Darwin’s description of Putrajaya as “the most orderly city in the world” was not a compliment…”

Ma Guangming picked up the camera and kept taking pictures of the city from the air. As a city, Putrajaya has a very neat plan. In fact, this city is beautiful. Buenos Aires is an arena of various architectural styles.

With the temperament of Paris, exuding the style of Madrid, but also the charm of Milan, the feeling of déjà vu is like a dream, sometimes clear, sometimes blurry.

But what about now?

This city, praised by countless people, is on the verge of destruction!

Now I happened to take some photos before the city was destroyed. It can be regarded as a kind of commemoration.

"The airship is coming!"

The roar in the sky made people on the ground stand up on their toes and look towards the sky. When they saw the huge thing in the sky, their eyes were full of surprise!

"one two three……"

During the count, someone shouted.

"There are actually sixteen airships!"

The huge airship just broke into people's sight slowly. Of course, they didn't think it was slow. It even seemed to them that the speed was already very fast. After all, even the fastest warship was only

Just 14 verses.

When the roar of the engine came from the sky, the people on the ground felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. This sense of oppression made them dare not even move their bodies, lest the people on the airship discovered their presence.

And this was also a noise deliberately made by the airship troops. They deliberately kept it at an altitude of less than a thousand meters just to make people on the ground feel this pressure.

"God, how did they get an airship like that into the sky?"

"It's gas! It's hydrogen! They rely on hydrogen to fly into the sky."

Amid people's conversations, the airship slowly flew over the city.

"They're here, they're here..."

At this moment, the tone of the onlookers was even a little excited. Whether they were ordinary people or dignitaries, they couldn't help but look up at the sky, waiting for the last moment to arrive.

he came!

he came!

Amid people's expectations and gazes, a huge fleet of ships was flying over Putrajaya. It seemed to be looking for something, just like a giant beast in the sky looking for prey.

"This is July 9th Avenue, our main target is here..."

On July 9, 1816, the Argentine people defeated the Spanish colonists and finally won independence in the true sense. The Avenue of July 9 is named after this - and it is not only the most prosperous street in Buenos Aires

There are many government buildings clustered on both sides of the avenue. The Presidential Palace is also near the avenue.

"Target found!"

In fact, it is meaningless if the target is not discovered. Dropping bombs from an altitude of one thousand meters, even with a simple sight, everything depends on luck!

"bomb!"

Following an order, a 100-kilogram bomb was dropped from the bomb release window. As soon as the bomb flew out, it made a "chirping" sound, and one bomb after another was dropped from the airship.

From a distance, people can clearly see the falling bombs, like birds laying eggs in the sky. Black dots fall from below the airship. In the quiet city, the roar of the bombs

The sound is more clearly audible.

Amidst bursts of piercing whistling sounds, the moment the bomb hit the ground, a violent explosion was like a volcanic eruption, erupting in the city. When huge smoke columns rose into the sky, the earth was shaking, like an earthquake.

As if, buildings collapsed in the explosion, and those seemingly solid buildings were easily torn into pieces like paper.
