Chapter 1195 Tuning MiG-3 in the Past
The German revenge came violently.
Bombing the capital of the Germans was to boost their own morale. According to Stalin's ideas, the Germans would definitely turn around and attack Moscow. The German bombers would wreak havoc over Moscow.
It doesn't matter, war is like this. The bombing of the Germans will stir up the blood of the Soviet people, so that the Soviet people will continue to fight against the enemy and wage a life-and-death war with the Germans.
At the same time, Moscow has also made preparations for air defense. If the German bombers are coming, let them have a taste.
Only, no one would have thought that the Germans did not retaliate against Moscow, but issued a death-like statement to Petersburg.
All the inhabitants of Petersburg must be evacuated within one day. Tomorrow at noon, the Germans will bomb Petersburg, blowing the entire Petersburg into ruins.
As for the reason, of course, because the Soviet bombers took off from Petersburg to bomb Berlin.
The entire meeting room of the Kremlin was silent, and the grandfather clock was walking in the gadag, which made people feel more fearful.
"The Germans are intimidating us, and we will never give in under the intimidation of the Germans." Stalin opened his mouth, his eyes looking at everyone coldly.
Khrushchev dared not look into the eyes of Stalin, who already regretted his proposal to bomb Berlin.
What the Germans need is an excuse. They bombed Berlin without causing any damage to Berlin, but the Germans got this excuse, and they want to turn the entire Petersburg into ruins.
The Germans are not just talking about it, it is definitely not intimidation. The Germans are coming for real. Everyone present will not forget Exeter. At that time, under the bombing of Germany, the whole of Exeter became The rubble was destroyed, and after being bombed, the troops hiding in it died extremely badly and had no survivors.
The Germans can do it, and now Stalin is saying this, but he intends to put the lives of hundreds of thousands of inhabitants of the entire Petersburg in it.
Even Khrushchev can think of Stalin's intentions. If those people died under the bombing of the Germans, then this blood feud will deeply stimulate every Soviet, and the Germans will not let anyone go. A Soviet man who must fight to the end and avenge the hundreds of thousands who died in Petersburg.
The fact that the Germans attacked civilians is a war crime committed by the Germans and must be judged by history.
Stalin was cold-blooded. In the domestic purge, he killed so many people without blinking an eye. Now, he is even more willing to sacrifice the citizens of Petersburg to gain political advantages.
And what about those people? Was it just sacrificed? That's hundreds of thousands!
Khrushchev did not dare to disobey Stalin. In the entire Soviet high-level, only Zhukov could argue with Stalin, but now Zhukov is not in Moscow. Zhukov is simply a firefighting captain, giving Stalin an idea to give up Minsk and save Moscow. After the plan, Zhukov went to Kyiv again, and the situation in Ukraine was also very difficult.
Therefore, after Stalin stated his plan, no one objected to it, and of course, no one agreed.
They are just silent.
"The German bombers fly at a very high altitude, even more than 13,000 kilometers. However, our latest MiG fighters can already reach this altitude, right?" Stalin said: "All our equipment meters The aviation regiment of the G-3 fighter jets must be transferred to Petersburg, and the German bombers must be intercepted."
Of course, Stalin did not want to make hundreds of thousands of residents of Petersburg make sacrifices. Petersburg is of great significance. It was the cradle of the October Revolution. How could the Germans be ravaged?
Last year, Moscow held a military parade and invited the German head of state Cyric to come. At that time, the Germans taught the Soviet Union a lesson that their planes could fly to an altitude of more than 13,000 kilometers.
This incident deeply stimulated the Soviets, and the MiG-1, which was originally a high-altitude fighter, was further developed and improved to become the latest MiG-3 fighter.
Due to the relationship between the designer Mikoyan's brother at the top of the Soviet Union and his own excellent aircraft design ability, the performance of this MiG-3 aircraft has been greatly improved.
Historically, the MiG-3 only had a ceiling of 13,000, but now, it has been strengthened to 14,000 by Mikoyan. At the same time, the problem of the short legs of this aircraft is even more serious. After filling up the fuel, the range is less than five. hundred kilometers.
It can be said that the designer's focus is to give priority to the ceiling. If you can't fly so high, you can't intercept the enemy's bomber. In order not to disappoint the troops, the designer made every effort to create such a special one. High-altitude fighter.
This is the top priority project, so far, more than 1,500 MiG-3s have been produced, but in the early days of the war, a large number of Soviet aircraft were destroyed on the ground, including these advanced MiGs -3 high-altitude fighters.
So far, the Soviet Air Force has only about 300 MiG-3s in the hands. They are mainly stationed near Moscow, so to speak, to defend the capital from enemy bombers.
Now, Stalin is doing his best for Petersburg: "Move all our MiG-3s to Petersburg. Once the Germans come to bomb, they will take off and intercept them immediately."
The Germans did what they said, and the Germans were quite punctual. They said that if they were to bomb at noon tomorrow, it would definitely not be late.
"Then will the Germans be clamoring for the bombing of Petersburg, and then a large number of planes will fly to us in Moscow?" Budyonny asked Stalin.
The bombs of the Germans are terrible. If those bombs are dropped in Moscow, it can be said that everyone in Moscow will suffer, and these big men are no exception. At such a time, Budyonny, of course, first considers his own safety. .
"What are you afraid of? If the Germans want to bomb Petersburg, they can go to the Baltic Sea. If they want to bomb our Moscow, at least there are still hundreds of kilometers along the way. From Belarus to Moscow, we will intercept many times along the way." Stalin refuted, Budyonny's face turned red, indeed, he was afraid.
Stalin has the final say in the entire Soviet. Under Stalin's decision, the citizens of Petersburg will not be transferred for the time being. However, factories, technicians, and college students in Petersburg can start transferring today.
Petersburg is a city built on water, with rivers everywhere. It can even be said that Petersburg is an island connected by bridges.
Petersburg is distributed on 44 islands and is connected by more than 580 bridges. Water transportation is very convenient, and these important ones can be withdrawn in advance.
At the same time, this is also the reason why Germany did not fight for more than 800 days at the beginning. It was limited by objective conditions.
Now, in Moscow, the great leader of the Soviets, Comrade Stalin, has made a major decision that will determine the fate of the entire city.
Hundreds of thousands of residents of Petersburg will be buried on this land because of Comrade Stalin's decision.
After receiving Stalin's order, the aviation regiments near Moscow began to move north.
When it was dark, Captain Alexander Ivanovich Pokryshkin, piloting his MiG-3 fighter jet, landed at the air base next to Petersburg.
