The time frame for the operation was so tight that it became too late to build a one-to-one model for a walkthrough or something like that. The 21st Attack Wing had only time to organize the pilots to conduct a few exercises on the map before preparing to launch a surprise attack.

To accomplish this task, the 21st Attack Aircraft Wing will be deployed in a squadron of fighters that will be responsible for clearing the airspace and, if necessary, suppressing enemy forces, and two squadrons of attack aircraft will be divided into two battle groups and put into battle. Of the 24 attack planes in Battle Group 1, four will be used to attack the Gestapo headquarters, 12 will be used to attack nearby German barracks, and six will be used to suppress other possible reinforcements such as patrols or pseudo-cops who are already patrolling the streets. Finally, two more will serve as a general reserve ready for reinforcements.

The second battle group was to be tasked with blocking the roads on the outskirts of the city and delaying the reinforcements of the German troops stationed outside the city.

Obviously, the tasks of the 2nd battle group are much more ordinary than the 1st battle group. So much so that the guys in the two attack aircraft squadrons under Ron strongly demanded that they have themselves in the 1st battle group. However, considering that the tasks of the first battle group are more technically demanding, Ron finally decided that the first battle group will be composed of elite pilots selected from the two squadrons, and the second battle group will be mainly composed of new pilots.

At noon, I was reading > novel XSTXT, and a large truck was driving through the streets of Calais, with a rain-proof canvas carport on its body, and when you looked from behind, you could see that the car was full of beer. But in fact, only the last row of the carriage was filled with beers, and the carriage was filled with heavily armed commandos. The truck is now slowly moving towards the Gestapo headquarters.

……

In the Calais church, several people dressed as cleaners climbed the two towers of the church separately. Once on top of the tower, they opened a bag, but instead of cleaning tools, they took out an M1903 Springfield sniper rifle. A janitor removes his clothes, revealing a U.S. Ranger uniform. He picked up the gun from his bag, took out a scope from a small box, and with a "click" he loaded it onto the rifle. Then the nimble pusher was loaded.

The tower is very high, and the small rooms on top of it have windows open on all sides, with a great view. From here, you can see most of Calais. It was winter, and the window was covered with thick cotton curtains, and Fili opened the curtains a small opening, and a ray of sunlight immediately shone into the room.

Fili gently removed a piece of glass from the window, moved a table to the window, and placed the gun on the table, aiming the muzzle at the gap. He didn't stick the gun out of the window, it would be too easy to spot. He kept his eyes on the sight, through which he could clearly see the target about 300 meters away.

……

"Get ready to attack!" Major Ma Long, the leader of the attack aircraft squadron, gave the order, and the four P/A-38 attack planes immediately changed from a wedge-shaped formation to a straight line, with Ma Long's attack planes flying in the front. It took a lot of effort to win the prize of leading the team to attack the most important target. Considering the frustration of his rival, another squadron leader, Major Duister, after losing to him, Malone felt as happy as he had eaten ice cream in June. Of course, it's important to grab the task, but it's even more important to complete it beautifully.

Now, the twin towers of the Calais church have come into his sights. The target is just a little behind the Twin Towers. Malone tightened the throttle valve, the engine began to idle, and the P/A-38 attack plane glided quietly towards the target like a glider. At this time the sun was behind Malone's attack aircraft, and Malone, believing that it would be difficult for the enemy in the target area to detect him in advance.

……

In a small car, Frederick, the captain of the SS Group 1, was carefully looking at the documents in his hand. This is a document about the female spy's contact with those people. From there, Frederick learns that the woman, who goes by the alias Lisa, has been brought into the battery by a few stupid soldiers who have been brained by a few elf (river crab) worms in the name of a washerwoman. And, according to their investigation, it's not the first time that those guys in the battery have done something like this.

"You should really send these bastards to the Eastern Front, the ice and snow there will definitely calm down these fools who have been in the brains of these (river crabs)!" Frederick cursed as he looked up from his papers, and then, through the left window, he saw several planes silently heading north.

"Damn! It's the Americans! Almost immediately, he remembered that the British had used mosquito bombers to help the Resistance rob prisons, and that the Americans must have wanted to do the same thing, but it was a surprise that they had the audacity to do it in broad daylight.

……

The truck had already advanced to a distance of about 100 meters from the Gestapo headquarters, and at this time, Malone's P/A-38 attack aircraft had just skimmed over the church tower. Malone violently pushed the throttle valve to the end, and the plane's engine began to roar. At the same time, Filip and Thomas opened fire at the same time, killing the machine gunners on the east and west watchtowers of the prison almost instantly.

At this time, Ma Long, who was flying at an ultra-low altitude, also pressed the bomb drop button, and a 500-pound bomb flew out from under his belly and smashed accurately on the prison wall. Then, with a loud explosion, a large hole was blown out of the thick wall of the gundam that was seven or eight meters wide. At the same time, Malone pulled the nose of the plane violently, and the plane began to climb rapidly.

Just before the smoke of the bomb explosion dissipated, and when the large and small rocks were still crackling and falling to the ground, a large truck accelerated and rushed to the vicinity of the gap. Then, a commando team dressed in a U.S. military uniform jumped out of the truck.

Several U.S. soldiers armed with M3 submachine guns rushed into the prison attached to the Gestapo Command, and then the gunfire continued. The Gestapo and SS fighters, who had recovered from the attack, began to fight back, firing at the Americans from the windows of the headquarters building with a variety of weapons - P-38 pistols, MP-40 submachine guns, Mauser 98K rifles. The U.S. military also fired back with M-3 submachine guns, M1 semi-automatic rifles, Browning automatic rifles, and grenades.

At this moment, several attack planes following Malone were already approaching the target, and they fired a barrage of rockets towards the command building. The rockets hit the building quickly, some of them flew directly through the window and exploded inside the building, while others hit the exterior wall of the building, where they immediately exploded a large hole.

This time, the rockets carried by the attack aircraft of the 21st Attack Aircraft Wing were specially modified. They were deliberately reduced in range and increased in charge. This attack and its emphasis on the accuracy of the attack, so these rockets could only be used at a fairly close distance. Reducing the range a little is not a problem at all. And the weight of the propellant that was reduced was just replenished with more warhead charges. However, it was not all explosives that were added to the warheads, but more incendiary agents. For example, napalm and thermite. So the building that was hit by the rockets immediately burst into flames, and thick smoke poured out of the windows of the building.

Almost immediately, the enemy in the building was incapacitated from continuing the fight. The most important thing for them now is not how to stop the commandos who are preparing to rob the prison, but how to escape from the burning building.

After firing the rockets, four P/A-38 attack aircraft began to circle the Gestapo headquarters at low speed. The machine gunners on the plane began to use the M-2 dozen-caliber machine gun in the tail of the plane to suppress the Germans who tried to resist. Under their cover, the commandos quickly stormed the prison where the prisoners were imprisoned.

After another exchange of fire, several prisoner-looking men were rescued. Commando Leader John yelled at one of them, "Do you know where Lisa is?" ”

The man had been tortured to the point that he was barely human, and he had not yet fallen to the ground by two commandos. Unable to adapt to the bright light outside, he squinted his eyes and replied in a weak voice, "She was taken out late last night. Where it went, I don't know. ”

"Damn it!" John spat the ground. "Let's rush into the building and stay with an official to ask!"

"Captain, the scheduled time is only a few minutes."

"I know!" John said as he took out his gas mask and put it on his head, now the Gestapo office building is full of smoke, without this, to go in is to find death.

"Tom, Scotty, Robinson, Little K, you come in with me, the rest of the people stay on guard, we don't come out in 5 minutes, you retreat!"

With that, John led a few commandos into the office building through a hole blown by a rocket.

……

While the assault team was attacking the Gestapo headquarters, other attack aircraft were busy. Arthur and his wingman were tasked with taking out a 4-company anti-aircraft gun near the barracks, while the other two planes were tasked with taking out the other. There were only four anti-aircraft guns in the entire city, and the other two were too far away to affect anything at all. Knocking out these two anti-aircraft guns, the Germans in the entire barracks could only be ravaged by the attack aircraft of the 21st Attack Aircraft Wing.

In fact, Arthur once again showed his good luck. The personnel on duty at the German gun emplacements did not expect an air attack at all, and it was not until Arthur greeted them with rockets that they understood. But it was too late, and in the explosion of rockets, anti-aircraft guns flew into the sky along with fragments of German soldiers.

Immediately behind Arthur, eight P/A-38s loaded with bombs began to drop bombs on the German barracks from a height of less than 80 meters, and for a moment, the explosion sounded.
