My Third Empire

Nine Hundred and Ninety-Seven Bombing Has Just Begun

?

"Thuk! Thuk!" On the backs of the German bombers, the twin 30mm cannons had powerful firepower and excellent ballistics. Put the enemy plane on the center of the circle on the sight, and the fierce fire will probably pay off. With the violent firing of the machine gun, the entire turret trembled slightly, and the shell casings fell under their feet, making a very pleasant jingle.

The tracer bullets were still shining in the daytime sky, and these ammunition rushed towards their target in a straight line at the fastest speed. With the rotation of the cannon turret and the movement of the plane's forward flight position, these warheads, which were supposed to fly straight, drew a strange arc in the air.

"Buzz...buzz." Captain James drove his fighter jet and threw it over his cockpit canopy, feeling the slight tremor of his engine due to the thin outside air. His plane was not in the best condition, and he, who had been with the plane for a long time, knew that his plane was not suitable for fighting his opponent at this altitude.

But the situation in front of him no longer allowed him to think too much, after all, the German bullets were not vegetarian. The German bombers flying in dense formation on the opposite side naturally fired ten times and a hundred times more bullets than densely packed, covering him and the fighter jets behind him like a big net.

"No. 4! No. 4! Climb! Climb quickly!" His friend's voice suddenly came from his earphones, and No. 4 fighter jet was his friend's wingman. Before this friend could say anything more, he had to roll to the right to avoid the ammunition strafed by the enemy plane.

Before he even had time to remind his wingman on the side and rear, he had to quickly push his joystick to the right, so that his plane could move in the fastest direction and avoid the ammunition flying in front, and waited for him to stabilize himself slightly When he got off the plane, overlapping shouts and voices for help came from his earphones.

James shot down a German -217 bomber over London. At that time, he was promoted to lieutenant and received a medal. So he knew how terrible the cannons on the German bombers were firing around.

It's like what the Germans faced in another time and space: fighter jets are no longer facing the opponent's pilots, but a huge air fleet, a large number of machine gunners strapped to their turrets with belts, and the sky. infantry. These soldiers no longer rely on superb dog fighting skills, but rely on intensive and orderly firepower.

A vivid metaphor is that the dense self-defense weapons on strategic bombers opened the prelude to trench warfare in the air. These aircraft rely on their own stronger structure and more stable platform to compete with the enemy's fighter force for consumption-and in this mutual consumption In the process, it is obvious that the bomber unit that also carried out the bombing mission by the way took advantage of it.

With great difficulty, James rushed through the dense firepower net, and then aimed at a German bomber and fired fiercely. His bullets punched two rows of bullet holes in the enemy plane, but it failed to shoot down the opponent. It's a pity that the butcher bomber is stronger than the d0-217 bomber,

It is also more tolerant of damage.

"Sir! Fighter No. 4 was shot down!" Wingman No. 2, who rushed through the firepower net of the German bomber formation with him, loudly reported what he saw. The wingman finally flew over the barrage, and saw the poor No. 4 P-40 fighter wing break off and fall to the ground.

It seems that the disaster has just begun. A dive attack did not mess up the formation of German bombers. Instead, these fighter jets of the British Air Force smashed themselves into pieces like a cloud of mud hitting an iron plate, without hurting the iron plate. When 19 British fighter jets rushed through the German bomber formation, there were only 11 pitiful ones left. Needless to say, the remaining 8 planes had been shot down by the self-defense firepower of the German bombers.

James knew that the Luftwaffe was not easy to mess with, but he still led his subordinates to attack bravely, but the reality was so cruel. He lost 8 planes, but still did not shoot down a single German plane. Fancy flying and sensitive responses are no longer what this war needs. What is needed now is a large-caliber cannon. big damage.

The American p-40 fighter jets are equipped with 12.7 mm caliber machine guns. Obviously these machine guns cannot cause fatal damage to German bombers, but the 13 mm caliber machine guns on these butcher bombers also have 30 mm caliber machine guns. -40 fighters are more than enough.

"Get out of here! Go around to the distance and continue to climb! We must attack again!"

James felt his heart twitching, but he still held back the heart that was about to break, and gave the order to continue the attack: "Be careful not to get too close! Don't be entangled by their machine gun fire! "

Those living beings who had eaten with me just now, and those comrades who were familiar with me, left this world in a short time of a dive attack. James is no longer a new pilot on the battlefield, but this moment is the most uncomfortable moment he has ever experienced. Even in the brutal London air battle, the RAF did not lose so many fighters in such a short period of time.

He drove his own plane and made a big circle before he arrived in front of the German bomber's flank again. To intercept the opponent's bomber formation, speed and rate of climb are the most critical performances, and it happens that the p-40 Rolls-Royce improved model is very ordinary in these two aspects.

"John! I want to avenge you!" James knew the pilot of the No. 3 fighter jet, and this close friend of James was beaten into parts in the dive attack just now. The plane, which was more fragmented than parts, crashed into the sea together.

He accelerated to attack, aimed his weapon at the German plane, then accelerated to approach the target without dodging, and then fired violently at a very dangerous distance. His aviation machine gun spit out flames, leaving dense bullet holes on the enemy plane.

The bullet grazed the cannon turret on the back of a German bomber, punching a row of holes in the transparent plexiglass. The German female shooter inside was shot in the head and collapsed on her seat, and the German bomber, which was attacked by two P-40 fighter jets in succession, was finally overwhelmed, and began to slowly descend its altitude with thick smoke .

With a booming explosion, the cover of one engine was lifted by the flames inside, and the Butcher bomber burst into flames, and the entire wing was shrouded in thick smoke. James' troops finally achieved their first victory of the day after paying a heavy price.

Accompanied by the explosion of this German bomber, there was another German bomber. This aircraft was hit in its cockpit. The 12.7mm bullet from the aviation machine gun penetrated the glass cockpit and directly killed the inside of the cockpit. Everyone, and smashed the dashboard.

So the plane also began to fall slowly, and finally began to circle and crash because of the increasingly weird flying posture. However, with the two German bombers crashing into the sea, there were also five British P-40 Rolls-Royce modified fighter jets.

When James turned around and found the attack position again, only 5 planes followed his plane. It cost the RAF fighter force 13 aircraft to shoot down two German bombers. This has to be said to be a frustrating thing, and the British have to face the sad fact that fighter jets cannot beat bombers.

And at this time, something that made James happy happened. At a higher place, one after another, new British fighter jets that dived quickly appeared. These super fighter jets with roaring engines were comparable to those of the Allied forces. They are much stronger.

These aircraft have a terrifying speed close to 700 kilometers per hour, and they are also equipped with large-caliber aircraft cannons on the nose-compared with the messy p-40, hurricane or even p-51 fighter jets, this kind of aircraft is the real A super interceptor in the sense.

With a whistling sound, these planes rushed into the German bomber formation, and the original rigorous German formation began to loosen, and in just such an instant, two German bombers disintegrated and exploded in the air. Obviously, intuitively, these British Meteor jet fighters that quickly cut into the battlefield are very suitable for attacking German bombers.

"Keep the formation! Keep the formation! Don't panic! Don't leave your position!" The sudden attack made the German Air Force frontline commander who had already relaxed his mood suddenly become full of energy. This new type of aircraft appeared in front of everyone with devastating speed and fierce firepower, instantly shaking the entire German bomber formation.

A bomber controlled by a novice broke away from the huge formation system, but was soon surrounded by the P-40 aircraft piloted by James and others. Soon the bomber was shot down, dragging its long tail and crashing towards the coastline of Iceland.

After such a long period of entanglement, the German planes have approached the interior of Iceland, and the bombing target is not far ahead. As long as a large number of bombs are dropped there, the German bombing of Iceland will be a complete success. Although the appearance of jet aircraft caused a little panic among the Germans, the weakness of these jet fighters is also obvious-they are too few!

There will be a supplementary update tonight, but the time may be a bit late...
