Chapter 048: Armored Corps, Attack! (c)

It will take some time for an air strike to arrive, but time on the battlefield is not something to wait

United Kingdom. Infantry of the army. Half-tracked armored personnel carriers loaded with infantry units also arrived, and they quickly unloaded their infantry and went into combat condition, so the Germans found themselves in a dilemma: they had only armored units, but they had to face a combined force of air force and army

JI Fengtan. The laser dazzle on the gram was constantly blinding the British cannon commander, even if the time was only a minute, at least it could make Tan. A temporary ceasefire from the artillery

Suddenly, there was a dense sound of planes in the sky above Ji Feng, just like a large number of passenger planes flying in formation overhead, they are Ji Feng's special strategic bombing aviation force, directly responsible for Ji Feng personally, completely under the command of the air force, their main aircraft are B-36, B-1B "Lancer" and B-52 "stratosphere" strategic bombers

These planes have a large bomb load, and although they are now arriving with the B-36 strategic bombers, which are the most combat-ready and ready for combat, they are capable of carrying a huge number of cluster bombs that will destroy the British Army on the ground

In other words, Ji Feng's idea was to first use cluster bombs to completely eliminate the soft targets on the ground, that is, the legendary mechanized infantry units

These cluster bombs are very special, they have three kinds of warheads: the first is very usual, it belongs to the fixed height fuse, triggers the fuse to explode at a specified height, and this height is generally set to 2~3 meters; The second is timed fuzes, the timing of these fuses is set so chaotically that even the person who installs these fuses may not know whether they have two seconds or two hours in their hands; The third type of fuze is a mechanical fuse, which is triggered after it hits the ground and triggers an explosion as soon as there is any movement, which is specially intended for engineering units

※※※

Ji Feng heard the piercing scream of the bomb piercing the air on the ground, although the sound was very small, but it was still very abrupt on the battlefield, Rommel used a periscope to observe the situation outside his 232 command vehicle, so he successfully saw several huge black spots falling rapidly from the place where the sound came, in fact, these black spots were 900 5-ton cluster bombs, and each cluster bomb was loaded with more than 1,000 small bombs

These bombs fall at about the same speed and drop at about the same time, so it is not very surprising that Rommel would have thought it was a huge bomb

Ji Feng didn't go to see those bombs, but looked at the strategic bombers flying in the sky

These six-engine heavy swept wing strategic bombers are so kind in Ji Feng's eyes, although they are still propeller aircraft, but because Ji Feng uses some special things, such as converting the turbofan engine into shaft output, etc., although these strategic bombers have an unladen mass of 125 tons, With a full load mass of 400 tons (the prototype B-36 is 150 tons, but because Ji Feng uses new materials, the weight is less, and the bomb load has also increased) (of course, there is no B-52 hanging) can still break through the sound barrier and accelerate to a cruising speed of Mach 1.25, which is why these aircraft can reach the battlefield so quickly after receiving orders

However, because the airfield was too far away from the battlefield, they did not move at full speed, but flew at an economic speed of 500 kilometers, after all, each plane carried a lot of bombs, and these nine strategic bombers were stunned to fight several hundred times the combat effectiveness

※※※

There was a scream on the British territory, mixed with explosions and curses, because the Germans were so insidious that the bombs were completely unclear

The British sappers cursed the Germans and used their lives to clear the mines, but the bombs were so weirdly designed that no one would dismantle them

So the UK. The officers began to get worried, because their training regulations did not say what to do in such a situation

On the other hand, the taciturn American soldiers were smarter and climbed directly to the main battle tank. Grams were crushed and cleared towards the minefield ahead

So the British soldiers moved at once

※※※

Most of the alert fighters of the British ran after the slow-flying B-36s, and these pilots, who always wanted to do something big, were very unreliable

The Allied air escort measures were very bad, and some escort fighters forgot about their own strategic bombers in order to shoot down enemy planes when they were carrying out escort missions

As a result, their own strategic bombers suffered heavy losses

※※※

The second wave of B-52s arrived, and the bombs they carried were 2.5 tons of ordinary aerial bombs, and another wave of carpet bombing, but the results were not great, because the helpless high-altitude bombing mistook the target and deviated from the British Tank by several hundred meters

But this bombing was a good shock to the British, who began to rush to the German army with all their might. They knew that only by entangling with the Germans could the German fighters attacking above lose their targets

They don't have many shells, and in the battle just now, the base number of shells has been used up, so now the sound of artillery on the British side is very sparse, on the other hand, the German army has increased the ammunition load in comparison, so every tank. grams can maintain a decent density of firepower

The B-1B also arrived, and instead of a free-fall bomb, they dropped a guided bomb with a charge of 1 ton, capable of television guidance, and the B-1B was safer, and a six-pack Gatling cannon was installed in the nose, which was completely capable of a long stay in the air, so these planes seemed unhurried, one by one, to the British. Gram roll call

At this time, the forgotten carrier-based aviation also arrived, which, despite their small size, were numerous and could carry out attacks on point targets

The task of strategic bombers is to carry out surface attacks, while the task of these small naval aviation fighters and bombers is to carry out precise targeted clearance of 250 kg of bombs to penetrate the main battle tank. The weak top armor exploded violently inside the car, turning the interior of the car into a pulp

……

After the sound of Qiē returned to calm, the Germans began to count the casualties

As for the British, their only few remaining fighters were besieged by naval aviation fighters, and they walked away with their tails between their legs, Ji Feng's strategic bombers really taught the British armored forces how to behave, and the British armored forces were almost completely annihilated, and only a few of them could still move. Grams are also lost in Tan. Gram of German Tan. Ji Feng provided a sufficient amount of 105 mm shells to at least let these Tan. Gram does not need to worry about logistical supply problems

In this battle, the British Afrika Korps was completely lost from the United States. The armored troops supported by the countrymen, and now all they have left is the old infantry. grams

On the other hand, although the Germans also lost a lot of equipment, they were able to replenish in time. But there are still crew members who can use it

The most important thing is that the German army has an efficient team of engineers

The scales of this war began to tilt not in the Allied direction, but in the German direction

Now the balance of the war will be slowly balanced from the Allied forces, and then slowly tilted towards the German army, and finally the German army will win a complete victory, of course, this is all for later
