My own war game

Chapter 77 Take them home!
"You jump I jump!"

"You jump I jump!"

This classic line from the tear-jerking movie "Titanic" once again played a magical role. Almost all the women in the audience began to sob, and even the staff who had participated in the filming couldn't help but have tears in their eyes.

Then the two men jumped into the boat, and there was a vast ocean on the opposite side.

Of course, tragedy is definitely not an option.

It was a happy ending, and the two returned home safely.

In the last scene, the two lovers arrive in London after going through numerous hardships, hug each other tightly at the dock, and then kiss passionately.

The audience could no longer restrain their emotions, and they stood up and applauded enthusiastically! At this time, many girls had already soaked their handkerchiefs with tears.

Others were saddened - they were all relatives of those soldiers overseas, and some were even lovers.

The movie isn't over yet.

In order to compose the music quickly, He Chi directly used "Christine's Sketch Pen" to copy a music score for the band. However, due to time constraints, there was no opportunity to record the theme song, so the people from the Publicity Department simply brought the band to the scene.

The sound of flute sounded, followed by a phalanx of violins, and the ethereal music lingered in people's ears against the backdrop of the piano.

At the same time, clips of British and French soldiers joining forces to resist the enemy and treating each other's wounded appeared on the screen.

The photographer's final shot focuses on the young face of a soldier.

He stood on the beach and looked across the sea...

Narrator: That's home.

A female singer walked to the front desk, picked up the microphone, adjusted her mood, and then spoke:
every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,

………………

near, far, wherever you are
………………

You are safe in my heart
and my heart will go on and on
Divine Comedy "My Heart Will Go On"

Along with the music, the last two lines of words appeared on the curtain:
"There are 30 such soldiers on the other side of the strait."

"There are loved ones waiting for them to go home!"

The crowd went wild!
“Take them home!”

“Take them home!”

“Take them home!!”

First someone shouted slogans, then countless arms were raised high, and the citizens of London shouted and waved their arms in unison. The atmosphere on the scene was as warm as a boiling tin kettle.

At this time, a banner was erected on one side of the stage: "Take our children home, civilian volunteers are being recruited!"

Human beings are emotional animals. In this atmosphere, thousands of people lined up under the banners. Some signed up to go out on the ship, experienced young people planned to become sailors directly, and some girls took off their jewelry to donate money.

"Has anyone of you seen anything like this before?" Churchill turned and asked the people around him.

"Except for the streets of Berlin in 1936, that's all." Information Minister Brendan Bracken shook his head, his eyes shining.

"Go, bring over the guy in the baseball cap and plaid shirt." Stuart Menzies, the head of the Sixth Intelligence Department, had a different focus from others.

"What's wrong?" Churchill asked his favorite general.

"It's just a guess, we'll know in a minute." Menzies tilted his head, and a professional agent ran down beside him. Soon, there was a sound of struggle in the corridor, and a man in a peaked cap was carried up by the agent, struggling and shouting, "I'm not a spy! I'm not a spy! I only took one pound, I didn't do anything bad!"

Menzies waved his men aside, then stepped forward and grabbed the man by the collar and dragged him up.

"If you don't want to be shot as a spy, answer my questions!"

"Okay, okay, sir!" Looking at the other party's cold eyes, the man in the hat replied stutteringly.

"Tell me, who made you the first one to shout slogans down there?!"

"I said, I said... yes, it was an Asian guy who gave me a pound and asked me to shout this sentence at the end of the movie..."

“How many people are there like you?”

"Three, three..."

Plop! The man was thrown away and then dragged away by the agent nearby.

"It was that oriental boy who did it. He had anticipated this situation." Menzies clapped his hands and concluded, then stood back behind Churchill.

"It's so interesting. He has such a wild imagination to make up this kind of thing, and he can also play these shady little tricks off the stage. I admire him very much."

Churchill patted his thigh happily, then took out a cigar and asked the person next to him for a light. Only then did he realize that his secretary was pretending to wipe tears and ignoring him.

"Draft a document. After this work is completed, bring him into the government and give him a civilian position with a military rank." The Prime Minister put away his cigar and casually arranged He Chi's future.

"I'm quite interested in him..." the Minister of Information stood up.

"Coincidentally, I think the same as you do," Meng Xisi from the Sixth Department continued the conversation with a competitive tone.

"Well, gentlemen, this little thing can wait for a while. We have more important things to do right now." Churchill stopped the argument between the two people in a timely manner.

"We will be very busy in the next two days. We will divide the staff into several groups and ask them to work overtime to try to release it in all the port cities."

The following day, a film called "Goodbye, Dunkirk" was quickly released in major port cities.
The film was crudely produced, with a running time of less than half an hour, and even the theme song had to be sung on the spot.

But this movie was a hit!

“you jump i jump!” became popular!
"My Heart Will Go On" is a hit!
The volunteer registration points were crowded with people, who expressed their desire to take their children home. Dense numbers of civilian ships gathered at various ports.

On the 25th, when the Little Ranger returned to Dover Port again, she found that there was no place to dock the ship.

He Chi, who had become the temporary person in charge of the Little Youmin, was shocked. Fishing boats, cargo ships, cruise ships, and even inland coal ships came to join in the fun. At least a thousand civilian ships of various types gathered in front of the port.

Many of them volunteered to go to Dunkirk for rescue after watching the movie.

There were enough civilian ships, and the British Royal Navy also became ruthless and collected all the warships that could be brought from the near sea. 36 combat ships of various types marched towards Dunkirk in a mighty force.

There were even rumors that Vice Admiral Bertram Ramsay was considering bringing in the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal, which was on mission in the Mediterranean.

The area near the English Channel was densely packed with British ships of various types, so dense that the German reconnaissance planes almost thought that the British were planning a large-scale counterattack.

It was only then that Hechi realized that he seemed to have gone too far.

There were suddenly more than 200 civilian ships than in history, and Hechi found itself with many unexpected competitors.

Not only competitors, but also German warships are looming on the horizon.
