How does the weather affect the war?

In the war, how to make use of meteorological conditions to gain advantages and avoid disadvantages and defeat the enemy is a problem that military strategists attach great importance to. In modern warfare, conditions such as rainstorm, typhoon, intense heat, severe cold, wind direction, heavy fog, ebb and flow of tide are used to accelerate or slow down the process of war, and the final victory can be seen everywhere.

The dense fog helped the British and French allied forces to create a "nine-day miracle." 1940 At noon on May 24, Hitler ordered the Ministry to stop moving forward until the afternoon of May 26. Using these two days, the Coalition forces set up a circular line of defense on the beach to cover the retreat. From the evening of May 26th to June 4th, the evacuation operation lasted for nine days. During these nine days, the Germans not only attacked from the ground, but also bombed across the Dover Strait. At this time, the weather is favorable for the Coalition forces. From 26th to 3rd1,heavy fog and thick clouds hung over the strait, and the black smoke from the burning oil depot made it impossible for German fighters to find the bombing target. By the morning of the 4th, the allied forces had withdrawn 3.46 million people, who were the main force in the battle when Mindy landed later. Some people say that smoke has created a miracle, because this is not an ordinary retreat, but the future of Britain as a whole!
