Chapter 752 Boston

Yannick is still in a state of confusion. What is the Space-Time Administration, what is the octopus alien, what is the parallel universe; it seems that everything that happened is just a dream.

"Your Highness, the experimental ship exploded!"

Hearing the report from his subordinates, Yannick subconsciously looked at the time. It has only been five minutes since the experiment began, and he has been in that strange virtual space for at least fifteen minutes.

He was a little annoyed. Why didn't he ask the alien more questions; such as whether the earth in other parallel universes has entered interstellar civilization; or whether it has encountered attacks from other alien civilizations; how far away is the nearest alien civilization in the solar system, and to what extent has it developed.

Of course, even if he asked, the special agent of the Space-Time Administration might not answer.

What made him most curious was that he came here with knowledge and memory that was 70 years ahead of others. Wouldn't this affect the development of space and time?

But that guy said that this is one of many parallel universes, so there shouldn't be any big problems.

Speaking of parallel universes and main universes, it's quite interesting. People in parallel universes regard their universe as the main universe, and the others are sub-universes; similarly, for people in another parallel universe, they are in the main universe, and the others are sub-universes.

But Yannick felt that the alien seemed to mean that the main universe and parallel universes were clearly distinguished, and there would be no confusion at all. Could it be that the first universe in the world is the main universe, and all other universes use this main universe as a reference and become parallel universes?

Yannick is not a physicist, and his head hurts from thinking about these abstruse things. Shaking his head, he threw away these messy ideas. Anyway, as long as he doesn't do these dangerous experiments in the future, he won't get into trouble with the Space and Time Administration.

"Are there any casualties?"

"No one was injured, but the magnetic generator on the ship exploded and new instruments need to be installed."

Yannick waved his hand and ordered. "The experiment is terminated and all experimental files are sealed." Presumably these magnetic generators were damaged by aliens?

"Yes!" These people have long been accustomed to obeying Yannick's orders unconditionally, but Tesla on the side couldn't help but wonder. "Why did your highness terminate the experiment?" Yannick just said the experiment of the original time and space was magical. He was also looking forward to seeing whether the time and space shuttle phenomenon would occur. How could it be terminated?

"I suddenly have a bad premonition. If it continues, it may bring terrible disasters to mankind." Yannick explained casually. After all, he couldn't tell Tesla that he had just been warned by strange aliens. If he insisted on continuing the experiment, he might not be able to save his life. How could he dare to continue the experiment. But even if he told Tesla this, he might not believe it.

"..." Although Tesla was still a little puzzled, he didn't continue to investigate.

Next was the planned warship demagnetization experiment. There was no need to stay and watch this experiment. Yannick went home directly and returned to the Berlin Palace.

On the other side, the German fleet was less than 200 kilometers away from the US coastline, and the ship-borne radar still did not find the follow-up fleet of the Americans.

"It seems that the Americans are ready to be cowards?" The fleet commander sneered and issued an attack order. "Take off the attack aircraft formation, target Boston!"

A-1 attack aircraft took off from five aircraft carriers one after another, and soon, a formation of 50 attack aircraft flew towards Boston.

Fifteen minutes later, the attack group saw the outline of the city from afar.

The city of Boston was founded in 1630 and is one of the oldest and most historically and culturally valuable cities in the United States. Boston is the first city established by European Puritan immigrants landing in America. It was the birthplace of many important events during the American Revolution. It was once an important shipping port and manufacturing center. Today, it is the center of higher education, health care and investment funds in the United States. It is the city with the highest education level in the United States. Its economic foundation is education, finance, health care and technology. It is one of the few large cities with the highest per capita income in the United States and is considered a global city or a world city.

"I heard that Boston lobster is delicious, but unfortunately I have never had the opportunity to taste it."

Because there was no request for radio silence, the pilots chatted happily.

Another pilot corrected. "Strictly speaking, Boston lobster is not a lobster. It belongs to the family of crayfish and can only be considered a close relative of lobster. Australian lobster is the real lobster."

"Hey, how did you know?"

"My dad is a biological research expert."

"Oh, so that's the case. I have to try Australian lobsters when I have a chance."

At this time, the commander of the formation gave an order. "First Squadron, follow me to Cambridge."

Boston is known as the capital of famous universities in the world. It has famous institutions of higher learning such as Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Tufts University, Boston College, and Brandeis University. Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Brandeis University are located in Cambridge. The reason why Cambridge has the same name as Cambridge in the UK is that British missionaries came here and built a town here, called "Newtown Town". Later, they hoped that this town could become a university town like Cambridge in the UK, so they renamed it: Cambridge Town (upgraded to Cambridge City in 1846). This is the origin of the American version of "Cambridge City".

"Second Squadron, go to Beacon Hill and destroy the Massachusetts State House."

The Massachusetts State House, located on the top of Beacon Hill, was built in 1798 and designed by Charles Bulfinch, a famous 18th-century architect. The unique golden roof of the State House has long been a symbol of the city of Boston. It was even described by Oliver Wendell Holmes (a famous American jurist and U.S. Supreme Court Justice) as the "center of the solar system." The German army naturally would not let go of such an iconic building.

"Third Squadron, go to Breed's Hill and destroy the Bunker Hill Monument."

The Bunker Hill Monument began construction in 1827 and was completed for tourists to visit in 1843. It is one of the earliest monuments in the United States. It commemorates the Battle of Bunker Hill, which took place on this hill on June 17, 1775. This battle was the first major armed conflict between the British army and the colonial militia, and it was also one of the most famous battles of the War of Independence.

"The Fourth Squadron went to the Old Charleston Naval Shipyard and destroyed the frigate "Constitution."

The "Constitution" sailing frigate was a sailing frigate launched and commissioned in 1797. The reason for destroying this old-fashioned sailing warship, which has no combat power at all today, is that it has participated in many naval battles and has never been defeated.

It was launched in 1797 and immediately participated in the Quasi-War between the United States and France and the First Barbary War to protect American merchant ships that were plundered by privateers. In the early days of the War of 1812, the Constitution made outstanding military achievements, destroying and capturing four British Royal Navy warships in three naval battles without suffering serious damage. This earned the Constitution the title of "Old Iron Shell" and was regarded by the US Navy as a symbol of struggle and victory. Although the Constitution has become a museum and is operated by a private organization, it still belongs to the US Navy and has not been officially retired and is still in service.

The anti-aircraft artillery on the ground fired sparsely at the attack aircraft in the sky, but unfortunately it did not pose a substantial threat to these attack aircraft.

"Haven't the Americans developed 150mm anti-aircraft guns? It seems that they are not deployed here."

"It should be deployed in Washington. I heard that Washington was almost bombed into ruins. I don't know what can be protected. If it is deployed here, we can see it." Heavy anti-aircraft guns are used to deal with high-altitude heavy bombers. They lack sufficient response capabilities for tactical aircraft that raid at low altitude and high speed, and are easily attacked by maneuverable and flexible fighters. If they are really deployed here, they will be destroyed by them.

"150mm, it's really exaggerated. These Americans are really bold. They must be forced into a corner by our high-altitude bombers."

"In addition to anti-aircraft guns, they have also developed high-altitude fighters. I don't know how the performance of those high-altitude fighters is?"

"I guess they can only bully high-altitude bombers that have no self-defense capabilities. Maybe they can't even beat our attack aircraft."

"Haha, it's possible."

As they spoke, the Fourth Squadron had arrived above the Old Charleston Navy Dockyard and discovered the three-masted sailing frigate below. "'Constitution' is a very impressive name."

The 4th Squadron first cleared several anti-aircraft gun positions around, and then dived several times, using 20mm machine guns to hit the old battleship with thousands of holes, and then dropped two 250 kg napalm bombs, and the entire battleship was instantly engulfed in flames. "This is too easy. It's a waste to send a squadron just for such a broken ship."

Just as the German attack aircraft were dropping bombs all over Boston, the Washington Combat Command Center was filled with smoke and a heavy smell of smoke. Everyone inside had heavy dark circles under their eyes and smoked with sad faces.

They also received news that Boston was being attacked by German carrier-based aircraft, but they had not yet decided whether to mobilize fighters to fight. The combat effectiveness of the German carrier-based fighters was too strong, and the fighters sent out seemed to be sending heads for nothing. It was simply that as many as they were sent, they would die.

"Our P-51 fighters are still inferior to the German fighters." This time they sent out 10 of the latest P-51 fighters, but all of them were shot down without exception.

Arnold sighed depressedly and explained. "Our aviation engine technology is far inferior to that of the Germans. The Allison v-1710 engine equipped with the P-51 fighter only has a first-stage, one-speed mechanical supercharger, and is no match for the German fighters at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters."

President Wilkie asked hoarsely. "Can the engine be improved as soon as possible?"

Arnold smiled bitterly and shook his head. This thing is not something that can be improved just by saying it can be improved.
