Chapter 462

Damn it!

De Gaulle pushed open the hatch above his head, leaned out from above, and shouted to the surrounding tanks: "Attack, continue to attack, the fate of France is in our hands!"

At this time, de Gaulle had no choice.

If he didn't stop his army from fleeing in time, he would definitely not be able to block the German tanks. Now, it can be confirmed that it is not a few tanks with soy sauce at all, but the main force of the Germans. Yes, the German Waffen SS!

In this case, even if all of your allies die in battle, you must block them!

Relying on their own spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice, they blocked the Germans, and at the same time called for rapid reinforcements from the rear. Once this force continued to penetrate into French territory, everything would be over!

Although he is only a major general now, de Gaulle has a global concept. He can immediately feel that this action by Germany just hits his own weakness, and it will lead to the defeat of the entire battle!

Once the Germans broke through from here, they would go straight to the back of their own side. Under the enemy, Belgium and the Netherlands would not be able to hold on at all.

De Gaulle was quite anxious.

He didn't hesitate to sacrifice his life, and in this kind of battle, he exposed half of his body, which was quite dangerous, but he didn't care that much.

Stop your troops from retreating!

He leaned out and shouted to the surroundings, but the effect didn't seem to be obvious, so he grabbed the flag on the turret beside him and waved it.

"For France, go forward!" de Gaulle shouted.

When this flag was fluttering in the hands of de Gaulle, all the armored soldiers felt the touch in their hearts, yes, they are proud French soldiers, how can they be defeated?

"Stop, move on!" The tank commander who had just retreated shouted to his subordinates. Even General de Gaulle was not afraid of death. What else were they afraid of?

The flag of France is flying high, this is our own country, and we must not let the Germans rush over!

At this moment, De Gaulle's image was extremely tall, but at the next moment, he was stunned again.

Above the head, there was a rumbling sound.

De Gaulle looked up and saw several twin-engine planes flying in the sky in the distance. From the outside, this kind of plane was different from the previous German planes.

Now, the most common German planes are the Stuka, BF109 and FW190. These planes are all single-engine, but now, the plane in front is twin-engine. What kind of plane is this?

Although de Gaulle still had fantasies in his heart, it was almost impossible for those planes that flew from the east to be theirs.

When the plane approached, they saw the black cross on the side of the fuselage, and the courage they had just accumulated became invisible again.

German plane!

Smaller than the Junker-88, what exactly is that?

Of course it's HS129! This is the most professional sweeper and the most professional anti-tank aircraft!

In fact, in the past, the United Kingdom had already encountered it, but unfortunately it was just a naval bombardment. The scene was grand, and it was difficult for people to sort it out afterwards. Therefore, the fact that the Germans already have a flying tank has not been ignored. People are familiar, they are more familiar with a terrible dive bomber with a scream like the Stuka.

The advancement of Guderian's armored forces is of course indispensable for the protection of the sky. After all, Guderian's mature tactics are to seize air supremacy and use the air force to cover the rapid advancement of ground armored forces.

In the Ardennes region, the main purpose is to march, and the protection of the air force is not yet needed. After crossing the Ardennes forest and entering French territory, the German armored troops need overhead protection.

The Luftwaffe did their part and sent the most advanced sweepers to escort them.

Now, HS129 is still in a small amount of service, and the total number is not more than 20. All of them are provided to Guderian. Now, it is time for the sweeper to show its power.

Nesper ordered his tank to stop when he heard the call on the radio.

Now, there is no need for them to continue the charge, the plane above will take care of everything in front of him, he can't charge forward, and if he mixes with the French tanks, he may be hit by mistake.

He knew how brutal the planes above his head were, and his own tanks could not withstand the opponent's blow.

If viewed from the sky, the German tanks and the armor of the huge engine compartment at the rear are painted with a large cross, which is actually to provide information to the Air Force and prevent them from being accidentally bombed by their own aircraft.

Lieutenant Webb sat in a small cockpit with a fairly wide field of vision in front of him. From here, he could see the armored troops on the ground.

After flying over the bridge, on the west side of the bridge, is the field of fierce battle, now, it is finally his turn to play!

Concealing his excitement, Lieutenant Webb pushed the lever, and his first prey was the stationary tank.

At this time, there was another person on the turret of the tank, too small to see clearly.

When the HS129 swooped down, de Gaulle knew that it was a 100% German aircraft, and the nose of the other side was painted with a graphic of a big shark's mouth, which looked a bit hateful.

Come on, Germans!

De Gaulle was not afraid, he pushed out a 7.5mm machine gun atop the turret, aimed it with his one eye, and pulled the trigger.

"Da da da." A shuttle of bullets flew into the sky. At this time, Charles de Gaulle was the bravest soldier in France!

Facing this kind of machine gun fire, it was like tickling. Lieutenant Weber didn't care at all. His dive had also entered the final stage. His sight accurately placed the opponent's turret on his own cross. at the center of the line.

Fire!

Pressing the red button on the steering column, Lieutenant Webb felt the body tremble.

"Boom!" A 40mm armor-piercing projectile flew out of the turret pod under the belly and flew towards Charles de Gaulle.

The last time it was used in the Navy, it was a 30mm cannon. In the past few months, engineers have continued to develop and mature the cannon. Now the HS129 used by the army uses Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft guns. The modified version of the machine gun has ferocious firepower.

Because of the weight, the 30mm cannon has 30 rounds of ammunition, and this 40mm cannon has only 12 rounds of ammunition. Lieutenant Weber must ensure that every round can be accurately hit!

After all, the engine he was driving still had a 700-horsepower engine. This kind of attack aircraft could not grab the engine of a fighter jet. When the engine was replaced with a more powerful one, it would have more ammunition. According to the plan, the future 40mm cannon will also be loaded with 100 rounds of shells.

At the muzzle, a flame burst out, and the 40mm armor-piercing projectile rushed towards Charles de Gaulle!
