Captain Robinson was really scared now, he didn't know what evasive measures the formation members had taken to get rid of the ferocious night fighter just now, and when the enemy planes quietly approached from behind and quickly knocked out the last one of the formation, he knew that he could no longer maintain the formation formation, otherwise everyone would be doomed. While being forced to disband the formation and let the rest of the team find a way to escape, he took advantage of the opportunity of the dive to quickly adjust his course and frantically disengaged in the direction he came.

It didn't take long for the rear cabin gunners to get the news that they saw a flash of fire in the sky, presumably that an aircraft had been hit and caught fire. Robinson paused for a moment, and soon understood that another member of the formation might have been poisoned, as evidenced by the intercom, and now no matter how hysterical Harry the navigator called, he could only get a crying response—apparently the rest of his companions understood what was happening.

"There's only one response, and the others are afraid ......," Harry shuddered and couldn't say the rest of the sentence.

"Mission failure, let's go back." Robinson's mood instantly sank to the bottom, a little painful, but he still made up his mind decisively, "Tell him to immediately raise the altitude and drop the bomb, no matter where the target is, just blow up anything, and go home faster after throwing it, remember to flee to the northwest, and wait for me to gather together......"

"Roger." As soon as I heard the other party's answer, suddenly a frightened voice came, "The enemy plane is behind me......

With the joint efforts of ground guidance and airborne radar, Becker finally caught up with the third plane after more than 10 minutes of pursuit, and with a "boom", the third plane exploded in the air, leaving all the crew members with no bones.

"The ammunition for the aircraft gun is close to being exhausted, and I request to return." Exhausted, Becker wanted to chase the 4th again, but looking at the ammunition that was about to run out, there was really nothing he could do.

"Excuse me, return home."

"Roger."

"Captain Becker, congratulations on shooting down 3 enemy planes." Hoffman motioned for Helen to bring the walk-around to herself.

"Thank you." Becker replied reflexively, and suddenly felt that this voice was very familiar and mature, but he was sure that no officer in the command had this voice, so he involuntarily asked, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm Adolf Hitler!"

"Ahh Becker finally reacted, isn't this the Führer's voice! Could it be that today the Führer has been watching my performance? What a surprise, what a night, "Long live the Führer!" ”

Becker's communication signal was cut off along the way, and now everyone was concerned about the fate of the last enemy plane, but Hoffman was obviously not worried about this, but praised Helen helen: "You performed very well today, and you worked with the pilot perfectly, and you have half the credit for his record." ”

"Thank you to the Führer, and thank you to the instructors." Helen was a kind person, and although she was so excited that her voice changed tone, she did not forget to say a good word to the young sergeant next to her.

"What was your career before volunteering?"

"I just graduated from college this year, and I was going to teach, but then I signed up when I saw the Air Force recruiting female volunteers, which was my first job."

"College graduates?" Hoffman laughed, "It's rare, which school." ”

"Department of Mathematics, University of Göttingen."

"It's no wonder that you calculate the speed and direction of the ship so accurately, thanks to the foundation laid by the school." This was also Hoffman's alma mater, and he had a better impression of the young lady, and asked with a smile, "How is the situation at home?" ”

Helen was mistaken, thinking that the Führer was asking about her family origins, and said: "My ancestors were subordinate to the Elector of Brandenburg during the Holy Roman Empire, and had the title of knight, and from that time our family has been pure Aryans of pure blood for generations. ”

Knowing that the Third Reich had always emphasized the idea of the nobility of its own blood, Hoffmann was still slightly surprised that such a tone came naturally from the mouth of a university graduate. However, he was soon relieved: this was the basis of public opinion in the Third Reich and the strong backlash of German national pride after the cruelty of the "Versailles Treaty", in a sense, it was repeatedly advocated by the Führer himself, but this racial theory of "Lao Tzu is the first in the world" made the Germans have enough words. Hoffman didn't have any displeasure, and said to Helen, who had blonde hair and blue eyes, and had a standard Germanic appearance: "This can be seen from your appearance, I mean you volunteered to serve in the Air Force, do your family support it?" After all, this is more dangerous than teaching. ”

"Yes! Absolutely! As soon as she heard this, Helen opened up the conversation, no longer restrained just now, but showed a radiant expression, "My grandfather is an imperial veteran, when he was 19 years old, he also participated in the Franco-Prussian War as a cavalryman, and later retired with the rank of major, my father is his youngest and only child in the army, he served in the navy during the last war, but he was not on the capital ship, he was the captain of a torpedo boat, after the war he retired with the rank of captain and transferred to the shipping company, I grew up near the port of Kiel when I was a child. My father had only one child, and none of my other cousins were in the army, and when my grandfather died a few years ago, he was sorry that the family's tradition of officers had been broken, and my father felt sorry that he didn't have any boys...... So I signed up to volunteer for the Air Force, although I couldn't become an officer, but my father was still very happy, and I actually knew a lot of professional terms like heading and speed before the training, because he taught me when I was very young......"

Helen, who opened the sluice, pulled and talked a lot, Kamhubel was always worried that the Führer would feel impatient, but he didn't expect Hoffman to listen to the speech patiently, and nodded frequently, "It turned out to be a military family, it is really not easy, you have dedicated your blood and youth to Germany, and the people will always remember you." ”

"This, this ......" The girl, who was very talkative just now, suddenly became shy, and said hesitantly, "Führer, can you sign me?" ”

"We can shake hands and take a picture together." Hoffman pointed to the people around him, turned his head and asked William, "Colonel, is there a camera in the command center?" ”

"Yes, yes." The spotlight flashed, and behind the lens of Zeiss not only left a photo of Hoffmann and Helen shaking hands cordially, but also a photo of Helen and a group of senior leaders: Helen stood next to the Führer, almost fainting with excitement, and Colonel William, although he could only accompany the end of the crowd in the photo, he was still happy, and there were rare big people next to him.

"Wow! Tomorrow they will envy my ......" Helen finally regained the young girl's expression, and pointed to the gazes cast by the others in the hall, "I not only shook hands with the Führer, but also took pictures with him and many other high-ranking generals, am I not dreaming today?" ”

"Of course not, and there are things you're even happier." Hoffman said solemnly, "Who said that women can only be helpers after joining the army? Outstanding female servants who were born and died for the empire and dedicated themselves can also become non-commissioned officers and officers! ”

"Führer!" Although in 1935 the Third Reich had amended the military service law and allowed women to serve, but usually only made them auxiliaries and not included in the regular army, let alone officers, not even non-commissioned officers. The Führer's order was too haphazard, and it seriously undermined the traditions of the army, and his relationship with the officer corps was already somewhat strained, and this order was even more troublesome, and the old diehards would surely babble. But in front of the public to openly refute the Führer's opinion, Marshal Keitel still did not have the courage to do so.

Looking at Keitel's anxious and hesitant face, Hoffman asked unhappily: "Mr. Chief of the General Staff of the Supreme Command opposes my proposal?" ”

"No, no, no, this ...... I mean......" Hearing that the Führer's tone was not good, Keitel did not know how to persuade him, so he had to explain cautiously, "This practice is somewhat contrary to the traditions of the army, and I am afraid that the senior officers will cause unnecessary arguments because they cannot understand the Führer's painstaking efforts. ”

General Jeshunek thought to himself: No wonder Keitel can become the chief of the general staff and the marshal of the high command, this kind of sleek and everywhere pandering to the Führer, even if he studies for another twenty years, he will never be able to say it, this answer should be given full marks. Of course, even if he did not agree with the Führer's point of view, he would not be so stupid as to openly oppose Hoffman's opinion, which was a matter for the High Command, not the duty of the Chief of the General Staff of the Air Force.
