Chapter 239

Almost no aircraft from John Bull could get close.

From the Portsmouth Harbor base to London is only one hundred kilometers, a distance the fighter formation could cover in the blink of an eye.

Thus, very soon, the silhouette of a fighter formation appeared in the daytime sky over London.

Many John Bull citizens in London even took out their phones to film.

Even more John Bull citizens chose to flee quickly, as they did not believe these warplanes had entered downtown London for tourism.

However, due to panic, a massive number of cars became gridlocked.

Drivers desperate to escape were filled with anxiety; wanting to flee, they honked their horns incessantly.

Yet, because people's fear worsened the congestion, traffic throughout London paralyzed instantly.

Many people could only abandon their vehicles and run on foot.

If Lin Yi had been willing, he could have simply dropped a string of heavy aerial bombs from the B2s while hovering overhead.

That would likely have sent quite a few John Bull citizens straight to meet God.

However, Lin Yi did not do so.

Instead, the fighter formation flashed across the sky above the clouds and vanished from people's sight.

Many Londoners were deeply puzzled: what exactly were these planes doing in London?

They had neither bombed Big Ben nor destroyed London Bridge.

Nor had they touched Buckingham Palace.

Even the Queen, who was already under heavy guard and preparing to flee, watched the formation fly over her head with complete confusion.

Clearly, this group of aircraft was not there to bomb her palace.

Consequently, people all over the world were extremely perplexed.

What on earth did the DWS Platform fighter formation intend to do?

Were they just circling over London to display their power?

If that were the case, it was entirely unnecessary.

Having just annihilated the British Navy, including its aircraft carriers, was already deterrent enough.

No one wanted to provoke such a terrifying and mad opponent.

After all, if someone breaks into your home,

it looks bad for everyone involved.

After this incident, many nations realized just how terrifying those lawless madmen from the DWS Platform were.

Facing John Bull, one of the five great ruffians, they struck without hesitation.

They did not hesitate even for a moment.

Moreover, they destroyed John Bull's entire main fleet.

This achievement was truly horrifying to many nations.

However, just as people worldwide were guessing where the fighter formation would fly next,

they unexpectedly opened their bomb bays as they approached a building flying the Ugly Nation flag but styled in British architecture.

Immediately, fifty aerial bombs rained down from the belly of a B2 bomber.

Seeing this scene, President Xiao Ao of the White House instantly stared until his eyes nearly split, crying out in shock, "Oh, God, no!"

But in the next instant, that building was engulfed in a terrifying explosion.

As a massive fireball soared into the sky, the structure was completely reduced to ruins.

President Xiao Ao stared at the scene, unable to recover his senses for a long time.

He naturally knew what that building was: the Ugly Nation's embassy in John Bull.

When this embassy was completely reduced to ruins, with its foundation blasted away by several meters,

The DWS fighter fleet immediately departed from the skies over London, vanishing into the horizon before long.

Many nearby Britons did not understand why these fighter jets had come to bomb an embassy.

However, for the people of Dragon Country,

They understood perfectly well the meaning behind the DWS platform's actions.

Precisely because they understood, many people of Dragon Country were moved to tears.

It turned out that someone still remembered the humiliation Dragon Country suffered in 1999.

Back then, a B2 stealth bomber flew toward the embassy.

In fact, since the Kosovo War began, most staff within the embassy had already been transferred to the Romanian embassy.

Nevertheless, to maintain basic operations, it was still necessary to leave some personnel to continue living at the embassy.

Although neither side would harm embassy staff during the conflict, to avoid accidents, the staff had posted symbols of the national flag on the most conspicuous positions of the outer windows.

The embassy established regulations prohibiting anyone from occupying rooms on higher floors or those near windows, thereby minimizing the risk of embassy staff being innocently caught in crossfire from bombings of surrounding buildings by either side.

However, as Ugly Army planes continuously bombed Yugoslavia, the entire society descended into paralysis.

The NATO countries, led by the Ugly Country, acted with insane brutality; in order to crush the enemy's will to resist, they even deployed depleted uranium munitions, causing devastation to the entire city.

To sustain basic living and working needs, the embassy staff utilized diesel generators.

However, due to difficulties in diesel supply, power would be cut off every night at 11 o'clock.

On the night the Ugly Army planes bombed the embassy, the staff had just finished a busy day; after completing their respective tasks, they shut down the generator and returned to their rooms to sleep, plunging the entire embassy into pitch darkness.

But then, with a tremendous roar, the entire embassy began to shake. Glass shards from the chandeliers on the ceiling fell, wall plaster started peeling off, and the whole room became chaotic and terrifying.

The embassy staff assumed that a nearby building had exploded, causing the blast to affect the embassy.

Yet when they looked outside, they discovered the embassy building itself was engulfed in raging flames, the outer walls had collapsed, the gas cylinders outside the canteen had exploded, and the entire scene was a sea of fire.

After a careful headcount, it was discovered that several people were missing; they were Dragon Country's three martyrs.

Later, Dragon Country launched an investigation into the incident and discovered that the B2 bomber had dropped a total of five bombs on the embassy, four of which detonated,

while one bomb remained buried in the ground without exploding.

At that time, countless people in Dragon Country, while grieving for the victims, relentlessly condemned the inhumane actions committed by the NATO forces led by the Ugly Country. Dragon Country issued a statement demanding that the NATO nations take responsibility for this incident.

The NATO side claimed that the bombing target was a television station, not the embassy.

They asserted it was merely a mistaken bombing caused by the television station's proximity to the embassy.

In response to NATO's explanation, the government issued a severe rebuttal.

It pointed out that there were no television stations near the embassy; the nearest one was located two kilometers away, proving that the NATO forces, led by the Ugly Country, were simply deceiving themselves.

As the situation continued to escalate, the Ugly Country's government offered another explanation,

stating that the target of that day's bombing was a supply depot, and that this tragedy occurred only because the Ugly Army used an outdated map when planning the bombing mission.

However, regardless of whatever explanations were offered, the entire people of Dragon Country could not accept them,

especially for the families of the victims, whose hearts were filled with endless fury.

Although later, under Dragon Country's forceful arguments, President Clinton of the Ugly Country at the time helplessly apologized and provided compensation,

The people of Dragon Country have never, for a single day, forgotten this humiliation.

"Endurance is not cowardice, but waiting for the right moment,"

Dragon Country has always adhered to this maxim, striving tirelessly for strength and prosperity.

In the blink of an eye, seventeen years passed; Dragon Country had already become the world's second-largest economy,

and militarily, it had even developed the J-20, the world's premier top-tier stealth fighter jet.

In every aspect, it was charging forward to catch up with the Old Ugly Country.

It now possessed both the qualification and the capability to say "No" to the Old Ugly Country.

And today, after seventeen years, the DWS platform had finally wiped away this past shame,

making the Old Ugly Country itself experience the agony of having its embassy bombed.

It was likewise a B2 bomber; back then, the Old Ugly Country dropped five bombs.

This time, the DWS platform chose to return tenfold, dropping fifty bombs directly,

instantly reducing the embassy to ruins.

As for how many people died inside, the DWS certainly takes care of the killing but not the burying,

and never assumes responsibility.

Witnessing this scene, many netizens from Dragon Country were extremely excited:
