Jagged Germany
Chapter 1469: The Germans are coming (ask for a monthly ticket)On the morning of May 7th, before dawn, the German army was already busy at various airports on the Eastern Front. Whether it is a field airport or a large airport, they are all brightly lit.
Ground crews are filling up fuel and ammunition for each aircraft, preparing for take-off operations.
An H-21 heavy bomber is being loaded with ammunition with the help of the ground crew. The ammunition truck transported the whole truck of bombs to the side of the plane, and the crane lifted the bombs one by one into the plane.
H-21 heavy bomber can carry up to 8 tons of ammunition. An aerial bomb weighing one hundred kilograms can carry eighty of them. The H-21 heavy bombers of the four strategic aviation clusters alone can carry more than 7,000 tons of bombs and drop them into the city of Moscow. Plus the H-11 medium bomber, dive bomber and ground attack aircraft and more. One shot is enough to drop more than 10,000 tons of bombs on Moscow.
Even though Moscow's urban area is not small, it has been repeatedly bombed. After a week, it would be enough to blow Moscow into ruins.
In the case that the Russian Air Force has suffered heavy losses in a series of air battles and can no longer pose a threat to the Luftwaffe, the fighter jets of the Luftwaffe also carried bombs in this operation. FW-190 fighter jets, which can hang aerial bombs weighing up to 100 kilograms under the wings, will also participate in the bombing. Of course, in order to carry out precise strikes on important targets of the Russian army in Moscow, some FW-190 fighter jets have hoisted rocket launchers, which can directly pour rockets at the Russian air defense positions in Moscow.
Faced with the large-scale bombing by the German Air Force, the only way for the Russian defenders may be to use air defense positions to fight back. In order to prevent our own bombers from suffering greater losses, suppressing the Russian air defense positions, or even destroying the Russian air defense positions, is an urgent and important task. And these tasks often need to be completed by the German fighter force or dive bomber force.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, the sky gradually brightened. The huge fleet of the Luftwaffe began to gradually take off from the airport.
The heavy bomber carrying a large number of bombs taxied on the runway, then gradually pulled up and flew into the sky.
More bombers and fighter jets also took to the sky. For a time, the entire sky west of Moscow was almost enveloped by the huge fleet of German troops. The huge fleet was connected together, as if even the sun was blocked.
The air search radar of the Russian Air Force found a huge fleet and immediately issued an alarm.
Although the German Air Force has basically given up the airspace west of Moscow. The remaining fighters were also transferred to the airport east of Moscow. However, in order to provide early warning to Moscow, the Russian Air Force secretly deployed two air search radars in the city of Moscow.
"Woo! Woo!"
The shrill air defense sirens sounded in the city of Moscow, and countless Russians raised their heads and looked at the sky blankly. In the previous bombings, the Luftwaffe had never bombed Moscow. So much so that the Russians living here are facing such a situation for the first time, so that they are a little at a loss and don't know what to do.
"Quick, enter the air-raid shelter! The Germans are going to bomb Moscow."
"Go to the nearest air-raid shelter to hide!"
When building Moscow's defense system, air-raid shelters undoubtedly became a very important defensive measure. In the city of Moscow, a large number of air-raid shelters have been dug. However, it is very difficult to say whether these air-raid shelters can withstand the large-scale bombing of the Luftwaffe. At least, for these Russians, it is much better to have an air-raid shelter to hide than to be exposed. More or less, it can be regarded as a psychological comfort. As for whether it can escape the bombing of the Luftwaffe, perhaps only God knows.
"Comrade Joseph, the Germans have dispatched a large number of planes and are heading towards Moscow. Please go to the basement immediately." The secretary reported to Joseph with a look of panic.
Joseph seemed very determined. He picked up his pipe and looked out the window: "The German attack has finally begun. I thought they would wait a while longer before attacking Moscow. However, that's okay." . Let the Germans know that we will never compromise. We will fight them to the end."
"Call Comrade Zhukov and get the troops in Moscow ready for battle. This time, we must give the Germans a head-on blow!" Joseph ordered.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph."
After giving these orders, Joseph, accompanied by his secretary, went to the basement to hide.
Moscow Garrison Command, General Zhukov has ordered all air defense positions to prepare for combat. But even so, General Zhukov's face looked very solemn.
"How much anti-aircraft firepower have we assembled in Moscow?" General Zhukov asked.
"Comrade Zhukov, we have prepared two thousand anti-aircraft guns in Moscow, including two hundred 85mm anti-aircraft guns, and the rest are 40mm anti-aircraft guns and 20mm anti-aircraft guns. In addition, there are a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns. These anti-aircraft firepower are distributed in the In multiple positions in Moscow. If the Luftwaffe dares to come, we will give them a head-on blow!" The general of the air defense force reported.
But even after hearing that Moscow had so much anti-aircraft firepower, General Zhukov was not relieved. He knew that with the strength of the Luftwaffe, no matter how much anti-aircraft firepower was gathered, it would not be able to really stop the Germans.
"What about the air force? Can our air force participate in the war?" Zhukov asked.
There is no doubt that if the Air Force can participate in the war, it will not be the opponent of the Germans. But at least it can interfere with the German bombing and relieve the pressure on Moscow.
Although the fighters of the Russian Air Force are far inferior to the fighters of the German Air Force. But those fighter jets can at least pose a deadly threat to the bombers of the Luftwaffe.
"Comrade Zhukov, our air force doesn't have many fighters left. In this German bombing, the air force probably won't participate in the battle." A general said.
"Huh! A bunch of trash!" General Zhukov couldn't help but cursed.
The Russian Air Force suffered heavy losses in the large-scale air battle with the German Air Force. Now, there aren't many planes left. The output of Yak-1 fighter jets could not increase, but the Americans assisted a batch of P-40 fighter jets. But because the pilots lost too much, especially the elite pilots were almost lost. Even if those rookie pilots went to the battlefield, they were just adding results to the Luftwaffe. Therefore, the Russian Air Force is now preserving its strength.
