Chapter 347: Sicily's Powerful Anti-Aircraft Fire
"Quick! We killed all these German troops in numbers! If we can't go it alone, we'll use three or four against one of them! ”
"That's right! Right! That's how to besiege those German troops and annihilate them all! Anyway, we are several times more numerous than theirs! ”
"Nope! Suffered! They are evacuating! Don't let these new German fighters escape! Stop them! ”
"They're running away fast! Can't stop it! ”
"Huh! What is that? ”
"It's a new German missile! Evacuate! ”
When the American army began to suppress the German Ta-152 fighter group in numbers, the pilots of the British and American air forces shouted excitedly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's just that they haven't been excited for long before they see a large number of Pomak missiles and Scud missiles surging towards them.
These Scud missiles were made by Chen Yanlong and Dr. Braun and Herman? Dr. Obert set up a covert "Sacchi" system headquarters in the interior of Sicily to launch Pomak missiles.
Of course, these missiles and their launchers, as well as tanks and other heavy weapons and equipment, were transported by relying on the C-54 transport plane, which had the advantage of long range and large carrying capacity, as well as the Fa-223 Dragon helicopter and the UH-1 "Huey" multi-purpose helicopter that Chen Yanlong exchanged for using the mobile phone system.
Of course, the facilities they transported also included ground survey vehicles, command vehicles, power supply vehicles, and propellant refueling vehicles to which the Scud missiles belonged, as well as test vehicles, fire trucks, etc., and TEL missile vehicles were also transported to the battlefield in Sicily.
So when the German Air Force began the first round of counterattacks, Dr. Braun and Hermann? Dr. Aubert immediately commanded the missile units, and the British and American air forces counterattacked.
"Boom! Thundered! Rumble ......"
As a result, many British and American planes that were still pursuing the German Ta-152 fighter group were shot down one after another in a very tragic way; Or it explodes in mid-air, making the dark night sky even more flamboyant and full of war.
But the missile counterattack was only the beginning, because as soon as the bomber groups of the British and American air forces came to the skies over Sicily to prepare for felt bombing, the German anti-aircraft artillery units, which had already been deployed in the shadows, immediately launched a fierce shelling.
A total of more than 10,000 German-made 88-mm anti-aircraft guns, and the Japanese 150-mm anti-aircraft guns suddenly fired at the same time, and the power was simply earth-shattering; The British and American air units in the night sky turned pale with fright, and they were at a loss for a while.
But just as they were stunned, more than 30 planes were shot down.
While the battle was in full swing in the sky, the Germans also had a large number of T1 self-propelled anti-tank guns, T3 assault guns, T4 self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, "Wasp", "Wild Bee", "Elephant", "Cheetah", "Tiger", and "Weasel", as well as "Stalker" tank destroyers on the ground, waiting for the landing of British and American troops to advance over, so as to give them a big surprise.
Well! Or rather, it was a great fright, especially the more than 1,500 T-54 tank units covered in black, which were ready to show their murderous fangs at any time.
"Hey! Why do you say that our Ta-152 fighter group sent only such a small sortie, and suddenly turned around and withdrew? Andrew! ”
On a tank command vehicle, the tank battalion commander Bellman said to another tank battalion commander while staring at the raging air battle.
"It should be an order from Commander Guderian, or a special arrangement from the Führer! We'll know by looking at the follow-up battles! Didn't you see the horror of those missile and anti-aircraft artillery groups returning fire? ”
Tank Commander Andrew took a puff of his cigarette and replied with a large white smoke ring.
"Hmmm! Yes! I see it very clearly, is it possible that the Führer is planning to annihilate the Anglo-American aviation forces with these anti-aircraft weapons, and not to use our air forces? ”
Tank battalion commander Bellman nodded, suddenly surprised.
"This is a matter for our upper leadership, it has nothing to do with us, the tank battalion commanders, and I want to know most now when those British and American troops will arrive at us, so that we can have a good fight, I am impatient! They're slow! ”
Tank Commander Andrew said nonchalantly.
"Yes! The speed of these British and American troops is really slow! But shouldn't they be able to defeat even those Italian coastal troops, and delay their advance? ”
Tank battalion commander Bellman agreed.
"Probably not! This time, they carried out such a large-scale landing operation with such a large number of naval, land and air forces together, and those Italian troops with weak fighting will and relatively poor weapons and equipment, I think they should not be able to stop their attack, but I am worried that it will be our Herman who will stop them on the landing beach, or the troops on the way? Goering's Division, and the 15th Panzer Division! ”
Tank Commander Andrew shook his head and said.
"In that case, aren't we waiting here in vain?"
When the tank battalion commander Bellman heard this, he immediately said with a bitter face.
"This ...... Probably not! I heard Commander Guderian say that the British and American troops, this time there are at least more than 400,000 troops dispatched for landing operations! And they are also well-armed, and the generals who lead them into battle are Montgomery and Patton! ”
"With such a strong line-up, they shouldn't be so vulnerable; It was blocked by our two divisions, or killed! ”
Tank Commander Andrew thought for a moment and said.
"It's three regiments, and one regiment is a recruit regiment drawn from Berlin by the Führer!"
Tank battalion commander Bellman added.
"This ...... The British and American forces should not really be so vulnerable! ”
Hearing this, Tank Commander Andrew responded with a little hesitation.
"It's hard to say! Don't you see that their aviation units are now suffering heavy losses from our formidable anti-aircraft fire and missile groups, and are in an urgent retreat? ”
Tank battalion commander Bellman shook his head, then pointed to the British and American air forces in the night sky, as if they were fleeing from the desert.
“……”
Seeing this, the tank commander Andrew was speechless and speechless.
Because at the beginning of the Anglo-American air raids, he looked at the dense British and American air fleets, and estimated, and finally according to his personal estimates, there were at least more than 3,000 aircraft.
However, even such a huge aviation unit was temporarily forced to withdraw under Chen Yanlong's powerful anti-aircraft fire network.
In the face of such an unexpected thing, how could he not be surprised and dumbfounded.
