Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 628 Death Air Raid
Pavel and a few co-workers secretly smoked in the hidden shadows outside the factory building.

"The days are too tiring now, and I am forced to work overtime every day."

Pawei smoked a cigarette intoxicatedly, and then passed it to the next worker. He said, "Why, do you still dare to raise opinions with the factory? Now the managers of the factory are all participating and co-leaders of the Eight Banners. If Anyone who delays production will be dragged out and shot. We are at war after all."

"I heard that the front line has almost defeated the Netherlands, and the next one is France."

Pawei also cheered up: "Yes, soon we will dominate the European continent."

"Pawei, why are you excited? You are just a coat, and you are not the master. The Western Qing Empire dominates Europe, and it is the masters of the bannermen, those oligarchs who benefit from it. We are just a group of Slavic slaves."

Pawei said with a smile: "Maybe when the flag will be raised."

"Raising the flag? I think you are crazy. Even if you become a bannerman, you are still a Ukrainian. You are not a Manchurian or a Mongolian."

"Then I might be your master, hahaha."

A group of young workers started to fight here.

"Okay, give me the cigarette butt, do you think it's easy to get such a cigarette?" Pawei shouted.

Their usual life is relatively hard. Not only do they have to work more than ten hours a day, but they also live in cramped dormitory buildings.A group of young men live in a dormitory, and the conditions are not good.It is still a time of war, and the supplies of the entire Western Qing Empire are given priority to the army. Some things that they can usually get, have become more difficult to get now.

Although their daily food is not bad, the cafeteria serves Daliba, vegetable soup, and often even meat, but their non-staple food is relatively scarce, such as cigarettes, candy, etc., which have almost become The most in-demand items.

Some time ago they also heard that a small leader of a factory got a piece of floral cloth, gave it to the most beautiful girl in the factory, and successfully got her.This kind of thing made the young workers like Pawei very envious.

These people are actually the children of serfs. Because of the establishment of Xiqing, they had the opportunity to go to school and were recruited into the factory.In fact, most of them are educated at the elementary school level. They can only read, write and count basics, and they have never learned any complicated knowledge.However, they are still better than ordinary farmers. Most of the fruits of farmers’ labor are now handed over to the empire. Although they were liberated from serfs to farmers and owned their own land, the exploiters have not disappeared, but It became the Western Qing Empire on their heads.

Just when several young workers were about to sneak back to the factory to start working, a sharp siren suddenly sounded in the factory.

"What's going on, is it a fire?"

A workshop director ran out in the distance, and he didn't blame Pawei and others for being lazy, he shouted loudly: "Stop the equipment and move it into the air-raid shelter! The Ming Dynasty is going to attack here!"

"What? Air strike!"

Pawei's mind was almost blank. He never thought that the air raid would really happen.A few months ago, their factory conducted some kind of air defense drill. At that time, everyone was panicked and afraid of being bombed. However, after a few months, nothing happened, and everyone didn't care.After all, the Ming Dynasty and the Western Qing Dynasty have not officially started war yet, so everyone is taking chances.

But now, the air raid is really coming!

A group of workers began to urgently power off the equipment, and then moved their equipment onto a large cart with hands on their shoulders.Behind their factory, there is an entrance to the bomb shelter.As the most important industrial area of ​​the Western Qing Empire, in order to guard against possible attacks, Western Qing had already begun to build these facilities as early as four or five years ago.

When these things were built, everyone couldn't understand them at all, but they didn't expect them to come in handy.

It's just that it's too late to prepare to rescue the equipment in the factory at this time.The Daming bomber came very fast, and by the time Xiqing reacted, they had already begun to lower their altitude and were ready to drop bombs.

Pawei has seen those giants in the sky, and he feels fear.

"The equipment can't be saved, it can't be saved! The Ming army is about to launch an air raid, let everyone go to the air-raid shelter, give up the equipment!"

Everyone looked at the factory leaders, but the only flag representative here who could call the shots shouted loudly: "No, the equipment is more important than the lives of your slaves. Our Qing army is counting on the aircraft and cannons produced by industrial equipment. Well, only with enough equipment can we defeat the Ming Kingdom!"

Pawei said angrily: "Damn it, it's too late now! It will take at least four or five hours to pull the equipment into the air-raid shelter, and it can't be done now!"

The flag representative was also angry: "What are you, you dare to contradict me. You are messing up the morale of the army. On behalf of the emperor, I will kill you, a slave!"

After that, he pulled out his pistol and shot Pavey, but he missed the shot.

Daming fears that your bomber has come to their heads, and the black bombs began to roll down from the sky.

"Run, run for your life!" Pawei yelled at everyone, knocked down the flag representative at once, and rushed to the entrance of the air-raid shelter behind him desperately.

The entire factory area has become a mess. The Eight Banners organization in the factory wants to save the equipment, but the workers want to survive, so there is no way to organize an air defense retreat.

The first bomb fell into the factory building and caused a huge explosion. This was not the heaviest bomb, but it also blew up the factory building that the workers had been watching for more than ten years to pieces.There are still some workers who have not been evacuated from the factory building, and have all been crushed under the rubble.

More bombs exploded with huge sparks on factories one by one. No matter how strong the buildings were, they all seemed extremely fragile in the face of such bombings.The people on the ground cried and wanted to escape from this purgatory, but there were too many bombs, and almost countless bombs fell. The dazzling flames, high temperature heat, flying shrapnel and rubble, and shock waves were all fatal killer.

The entrance before the air-raid shelter was densely packed, and people went crazy trying to squeeze in. That might be their only way to survive.

When Pawei saw countless people crowded there and couldn't get in at all, his heart was already chilled.

In the next moment, a bomb floated down and landed in the crowd. There was a violent explosion and flashes of fire, the entrance collapsed, and everyone died.
