It was a war room, and although it was daytime, the room had to be lit by light because the door was closed and the heavy curtains on the windows were tightly drawn. In the middle of this room, there is a large sand table from an airport.

"Is this sandbox model highly accurate?" A Scarface with the rank of major asked.

"Major, our army has captured Tula at one time, so we all know about the situation at several airfields near Tula. According to the reconnaissance of our air force, the team that attacked us should be stationed at this airfield. We have information on the situation of this airfield in 41 years, and we have built this sand table based on this information combined with the information obtained from recent aerial reconnaissance. ”

"How many aerial reconnaissance did you conduct after the attack?" Skorzny clasped his hands to his chest and continued.

"There were six aerial reconnaissance trips, the first four of which were carried out in rainy weather, three of which did not find the target, and one flew over the airfield and took some photographs of the target airfield. When it was intercepted by an enemy plane on its return voyage, the reconnaissance plane relied on such means as burrowing into the clouds to make a safe return home. However, due to bad weather conditions, the air defense deployment near the airport was not detected. The last two times we made sorties on sunny days, and as a result, none of the reconnaissance planes sent came back. ”

"So well defended?" Skorzny smiled, "It's really challenging. ”

\一\本\Read\Novel xstxt "Do we have an airport in our hands with a similar layout to this one?" He asked.

"It's too much. Most of the Russian airfields were built according to a mold, and the basic style and layout were not too similar. ”

"So can you borrow an airport for us in the near future?"

"Major, you have to ask for this from a higher department."

"yes, I see. By the way, did you reconnoiter this airfield a lot before? Skorzny remembered something again.

"Colonel, as far as I know, we have not conducted reconnaissance near Tula for a long time. In fact, if it weren't for all indications that the enemy planes that attacked us were from Tula, we wouldn't have scouted that place at all. The Air Force liaison replied.

"Why is this happening?" Skorzny's expression turned serious.

"Major, you must know that most of our bombers have a very limited range, and although Tula is still on the range of our bombers, if the bombers want to attack targets there, the amount of ammunition they carry will drop significantly, and the strike force will be insufficient. Moreover, our fighters have a much shorter range and cannot provide full escort for bombers. As a result, the risk of attacking targets in the vicinity of Tula is very high. Since ......"

"Since the target of attacking Tula has a small effect and great danger, there is certainly no need for all air forces to keep an eye on Tula." Skorzny picked up his words, "Then most of your recent reconnaissance operations will alert them. Well, from the fact that the reconnaissance planes you sent out in the last two times failed to come back, it can be seen that they are indeed alert. That's not good...... It's going to ...... our plans," Skorzny paced around the war room.

……

"During this period of time, reconnaissance aircraft of the Germans have repeatedly appeared near our airfield, what do you think about this?" At a meeting of the United Air Force, Ron asked.

"The Germans must have done this to get back on our feet." Kozhidub said, "It's me, I have suffered such a big loss, and I will never be able to bear it if I don't get something back." ”

"But it's not easy for the Germans to attack us. The nearest German airfield was also nearly 600 kilometers away from us, and the German bombers could reach us, but their fighters could not fly that far. Are they going to let the bombers run naked to come and attack us? If that's the case, then it's really a door-to-door delivery. Another pilot said.

"Do you think they're going to use the kind of thing they use to attack London against us?" This was said by an American pilot named Neo.

"Don't worry about that," Ron replied, "The facility for launching V1 is not small, and it can't be built in such a short time. And the range of that thing is also insufficient. To date, neither we nor the British have ever found a launcher more than 350 kilometers from London. This actually shows how long this thing has range. This thing will definitely not reach us. ”

"So, General Ron, what are you going to do if you were German?" Pokryshkin asked.

"Me, huh...... Why don't we each take a piece of paper and write down our thoughts on paper? See what's the difference? Ron suddenly had a bad taste and said this.

"Okay, let's do it." This old-fashioned routine in China seemed to the Russians and Americans to be quite novel, and the pilots immediately became interested, and some immediately brought paper and pens.

Ron scribbled the words on the scrap of paper: "Night bombing." Ron knew that, unlike the British Germans, the Soviet Union lacked night fighters. Ron vaguely remembered that the Soviets seemed to have changed a night fighter with a PE-2 bomber, but the number was very limited, and there was no radar, so they could only rely on searchlights to fight, and it was estimated that the efficiency would not be too high. So Ron felt that the safest way was to bomb at night. Although the accuracy of night bombing is a problem, at least, safety is still relatively guaranteed.

At this time, Ron saw that Pokryshkin had already written, so he handed over the note he had written, and said to Pokryshkin: "Let's exchange it." ”

Pokryshkin smiled and took Ron's note, handing it to Ron. Ron opens the note, which contains only two words: "Night Attack".

The two of them laughed at the same time, and then each held up the note in his hand for everyone to see.

"So, what do we do?" Someone asked.

"If the light control is well controlled, and some electronic interference or something, it should be able to reduce the enemy's efficiency to a very low level." Ron said.

During World War II, it was not possible to use ground markers to correct course during night bombing, as was the case during the day, and without special navigation technology, it was normal to try to attack targets that were a little farther away, such as not finding the target and running for nothing. For example, during the Battle of Britain, German bombers tried to attack London at night, but at first because of the difficulty of navigation, many bombers had to drop bombs into the wheat fields of the British to create a strange circle. Later, relying on radio navigation technology, it was possible to find London accurately.

At that time, the Germans set up two radio transmitters at the same distance from the intersection of the left and right ends of a vertical line directly to London. A radio signal of comparable strength is sent to an aircraft in flight. The aircraft determines whether its position is left or right by paying attention to the signal strength it receives from the left and right ends, and adjusts its course.

Of course, the British also had a way to deal with it, and that was electronic jamming. Using their own radio installations to transmit the same signals as the Germans, thereby interfering with the navigation of the German troops. So how did the British army's own night bombing operations navigate? You know, the target of the British attack is thousands of kilometers away. In fact, it is simple, the British rely on astronomical navigation. That is, the starry sky is used to determine latitude and longitude. This is an undisturbable way of navigation, but it requires a high level of professionalism from the personnel. Germany lacked long-range bombers, so naturally it did not train a large number of personnel who had mastered this skill. Therefore, they may also continue to use the same methods used in the Battle of Britain. Then, preparing the corresponding jamming equipment is an extremely effective method.

"In addition, if the Germans want to bomb us, they must first gather bombers at a nearby airfield. We can also keep an eye on the Germans at those nearby airfields at all times. The P-81 was slightly modified, and it was a good reconnaissance aircraft, flying high and fast. Pokryshkin said.

"Recently, after this blow to us in Poland by the Germans, intelligence showed that the activity of the jets almost stopped. We could also reduce safari flights in Poland and send some planes on safari missions near several nearby German airfields. ”

"Speaking of safaris, I have one more idea......" an American pilot interjected.

……

"I need your air force to launch a series of feints to distract the enemy and shift their focus to defensive bombing. Only then will we be able to strike when the enemy is already alert. Skorzny said.

"During the period of our training preparations, it is best for your air force to launch one or two air strikes. The victory of the air raids was then publicized in newspapers and on the radio, followed by a reduction or altogether cessation of reconnaissance activities. In this way, the enemy will most likely think that our blow to them is over, and they will let their guard down, and in this way, our opportunity will come. ”

"Okay, Major, I'll bring your suggestion back." The Air Force liaison replied, "In addition, we found this airfield south of Kyiv, and its condition is very close to the target airfield." We can lend it to you, and you and your subordinates can go there right away. Until the end of the mission. ”

"Hehe, thank you for your cooperation." Skorzny laughed, which made the scar on his face twitch and look particularly hideous. "We'll get there, but we just need to train at night, and during the day, the airport has to look like nothing has changed."
