Painful giving up - Churchill cut his love for Coventry

On November 12, 1940, the German Air Force Command made a decision through the latest and most complex communication code: In order to retaliate against the British Royal Family The Air Force carried out a provocative air attack on the German city of Munich on the 8th of the same month, and will send an air force fleet to carry out violent bombing on the center of the British interior on the 14th and 15th. Dubbed the Moonlight Sonata, the project will be implemented in Coventry, a city that plays an important role in British architectural history and industry.

The British intercepted this German intelligence through "super secret". However, the British faced a dilemma on how to deal with this air attack. One option was to take proactive measures to defend Coventry. At that time, an action plan code-named "Cold Rush" was formulated, which was to use all available aircraft to thwart the enemy's attack at the outset. Because there was enough time to concentrate anti-aircraft fire, searchlights and smoke screen defense facilities to strengthen fire-fighting and rescue work throughout the city. Combining artillery fire with searchlights could at least force the Germans to fly at high altitudes or drive them away from their targets. However, this might have led the Germans to suspect that their code had been broken and that the British had been warned of the air raid in advance. Then, the Germans will replace a new password system, and the "super secrets" already mastered by the British will also lose their effect. Therefore, another option is to keep Coventry's defense measures intact and respond to the air raids in a normal way, which is to reluctantly give up and sacrifice the city of Coventry to preserve the "super secret".

Faced with this difficult choice, only Prime Minister Churchill has the authority to make the decision. After repeated weighings, he realized that the security of "super secrets" was more important than the security of an important industrial city, because "super secrets" would definitely be a decisive and important weapon in future battles. For the sake of the overall interests and to ensure the victory of the entire war, the only choice was to sacrifice Coventry to preserve the "super secret".

As a result, Coventry painfully withstood a 10-hour air attack by German aircraft without any further defense. In the explosion caused by more than 500 blockbuster bombs, Coventry was turned into ruins like an earthquake. Coventry became a city of martyrdom, martyred for "super secrets."
