"Drop the bomb!" At an altitude of more than 7,000 meters, the commander of an -217 bomber loudly issued an order to start bombing, and one after another, the German bombers, which had already opened their bomb bays, began to dump the bomb bays. bombs dropped to the ground.
The airflow blows over the tail of the aerial bomb, making a buzzing sound. As for the idea of installing a whistle on the bomb, the person who proposed it must be a master in the application of psychology. Only a small whistle was used as the cost, and it caused damage to other enemy troops who were not killed by the bomb. Dozens of times the psychological damage.
The whistle sounded all over the sky so that the Soviet soldiers who could hear this sound almost collapsed. Accompanied by the dull explosion sound hitting the ground, and the trembling of the ground felt from all parts of the body, everything here is being tested. It destroys people's beliefs and destroys people's will.
The anti-aircraft guns near Moscow were groaning weakly. After all, these artillery hadn't been added since a long time ago. In order to make up for the loss of the army, Stalin pushed most of his resources to tank production, so the anti-aircraft firepower in his hands was not as dense as people imagined.
But today, because there were too many German planes dispatched, these small number of anti-aircraft guns still shot down several German planes. A soldier at an air defense concealed observation post aimed his binoculars at the distant sky, where a German -217 bomber fell from the high sky, dragging a long smoke.
Unfortunately, the downing of several planes did not prevent the Germans from dropping more bombs on Moscow. An aerial bomb exploded on the streets of Moscow, and the shrapnel flew across, smashing the floor-to-ceiling windows of the store, igniting the curtains and pendants behind the windows, and even piercing through the heavy door of the hotel several hideously. hole.
There is no one here. After all, Moscow has a subway station and proper air defense bunker facilities. The good infrastructure makes the entire city's ability to resist air raids very high. However, although the loss of people was not great, the buildings could not hide underground, so these ancient and strong buildings were destroyed in the explosion.
"Hit the target! The first batch of bombs have hit the target!" After flying over the target first, the German soldiers who followed the plane to confirm the results of the battle, watched the collapsed and burning houses with observation equipment, and confirmed themselves loudly on the radio. The results of the troops, they have professional camera equipment, the task is to confirm the degree of destruction of the target.
"Hey, let me say, is the place we just flew over, the Kremlin? I saw that golden spire, and it was surrounded by a sea of flames." A German pilot asked the co-pilot beside him: "You Did you see it just now?"
"I saw it just now. I'm not sure if our bomb really hit the Kremlin... But I'm sure that this building is completely finished." The pilot on the co-pilot replied emotionally: "My God, we can finally kill that damned Stalin..."
"goodbye,
Moscow... I think I was the last to see the city. A German pilot who bombed London said what he once said over London: "The city is over, really over." "
It is still uncertain whether Moscow will really disappear from the earth, but what is certain is that most of the buildings in the city have been affected by the bombing. As for how much is affected, it depends on the luck of these buildings. If you are lucky, you may only drop a little dust, but if you are unlucky, it may completely collapse.
It is impossible for the German bombers to continue bombing for too long, because after all, medium bombers have limited ammunition loads, and pilots are also extremely precious. It is not in line with the usual style of the German army to consume them for no reason. So after dropping all the bombs they were carrying, the German bombers changed direction and began to leave Moscow airspace.
For such a large-scale bombing attack, most of the Soviet Air Force pilots did not even have the courage to take off to intercept and fight. Only 12 pitiful Soviet Air Force P-40 planes took off in an emergency and entered the battlefield. It is a pity that these 12 fighters were all eaten by the escorting German fighter force before they persisted for 5 minutes.
The gap between the fighter jets of the two sides is so huge that even if the fighter pilots of the Soviet Red Army drive at full horsepower, they cannot fly their fighter jets to the speed of the Luftwaffe fighter jets. On the other hand, the difference in the quality of the pilots of the two sides is so huge that the Soviet pilots don't even have basic dog fighting ability.
During the 1-year Great Patriotic War, Soviet pilots faced the German Air Force bravely and fearlessly. Nearly 10,000 Soviet pilots who were not afraid of sacrifice flew into the air to fight against German aircraft. It is a pity that these heroic pilots have no way to recover their inferior equipment, so they can only pay with their own lives.
In modern warfare, to cover the movement and transfer of ground troops requires the air force to fight desperately; to defend the important transportation hubs and cities of one's own side, the air force needs to fight desperately; to reduce the loss of the ground defense force and counterattack the enemy's ground force also requires the air force to fight desperately fight. Countless Soviet pilots could only be forced to take off to fight again and again. As a result, the ground troops were kept but they lost more.
Now, the Soviet Union finally had to pay the price for their infinitely exhausting pilot combat methods. They lack a large number of pilots, so that even though the gap between them and the German army is gradually narrowing in terms of fighter quality, the record of both sides is gradually widening.
Compared with training a car driver or an infantryman who can kill with a rifle, the time and cost required to train an Air Force pilot are really much, much, much higher. Japan, which is far away in Asia, has a deep understanding of this. After the loss of their fighter pilots, the replenishment period is so long that the base camp is extremely desperate. If Yamamoto Fifty-Six had to choose, he would rather sink two of his fleet aircraft carriers than lose 300 precious fighter pilots.
Looking at the German bombers who slapped their buttocks and walked away outside the window, General Vatutin, who had just climbed out of his underground headquarters, felt like crying without tears. His well-arranged air defense positions proved to be worthless in the face of the powerful destructive power of the Luftwaffe's all-out attack.
German Stuka bombers on the outskirts of the city destroyed 13 of the 20 Moscow anti-aircraft defenses and completely destroyed 4 of them. And the news he got just now is that behind such a huge loss is the shameful record of shooting down 21 enemy planes.
Vatutin gave a wry smile, and then called his assistant to him: "Put all the frontline troops on alert immediately. The German army may launch a ground offensive immediately after the bombing. Make sure that the frontline positions will not be easily broken by the enemy. !"
His assistant hurriedly stood at attention and saluted, and hurried out of the headquarters before he could answer. There was also a huge bomb crater outside the window, and the wind poured into the room through the broken glass window, blowing the map on the wall and the books in the room rattling.
The bombing just now was so shocking that Vatutin didn't think of asking about the front line defense until this time. Firetrucks started pouring in from all directions, because there were fires everywhere, and these firefighters and the women and children who were assisting them had to fight the fire from the point of departure.
There was rubble and debris everywhere, and many firetrucks were unable to reach their intended positions because the roads were damaged. Except around Red Square, which is relatively unobstructed and important, the whole of Moscow seems to have fallen into a hopeless chaos. For the first time, people realized that the war is so close to here, close to the point where they will face death at any time.
"Ring, ring, ring." The phone rang, and Vatutin grabbed the dusty receiver on the desk and said, "I'm Vatutin."
On the other side of the phone, Stalin's voice came over: "Comrade General, the Kremlin was hit, and 7 guards on duty and 3 attendants died. For the parade, I also ordered to hang up here the celebratory The flag, unfortunately, is now a burning flame."
Outside the window, the sound of German shelling can still be heard, most of which are concentrated in the western part of Moscow. Although it is far away from Vatutin, the dull sound can still be heard clearly.
So Vatutin spoke to persuade Stalin, who was looking after himself and was lonely: "The great leader, Comrade Stalin... The German bombardment is still going on, I hope you can pay attention to your own safety... I will rush to you in the afternoon." I'll see you in the past."
"Okay, I'll wait for you!" Stalin replied: "Then, Comrade General, do you think it's better to continue our plan for this military parade? Or cancel it?"
What time is it? Are you still thinking about your ridiculous troop parade? Vatutin suppressed the anger and disdain in his heart, and replied: "The great leader, Comrade Stalin, unless you want the whole world to see Moscow like this, otherwise, I think it's better to cancel the military parade." The Germans can not only bomb with bombers, but now they can also bomb with artillery and hold military parades, which is obviously unsafe."
Stalin was silent for a long time, and hung up the phone without saying anything. Apparently he was probably in a bad mood, maybe because of the German bombardment of Moscow, maybe because the parade had to be canceled, but who knows?
