Brest City is nothing more than a medium-sized city with more than 100,000 people. But its location is so important that the Brest Fortress, the strongest fortress on the Russian border, was built here.

Construction of the Brest Fortress began in 1833 and was expanded several times to form a large fortification. It consists of four separate islets separated by the Bug River and an artificial canal. The central castle is located in the center of the entire fortified area, it is a circular enclosed type, 18 li long, and the brick wall is 2 meters thick. To the southwest of the central citadel is the Terespil Fortress, directly south is the Volyn Fortress, and to the north there is the Kobrin Fortress as a barrier. The forts were surrounded by rivers and were connected by bridges.

The Volyn and Terespol fortresses were the main barriers of the Brest Fortress, of which the Terespol Fortress was built on the banks of the Bug River, which included many churches and monasteries of the old Tsarist era, which were an important part of the fortifications of the entire fortress. The Kobrin Fortress in the north is the former Old Brest City, which is densely populated with streets and many fortified buildings built of early stone.

The most important fortifications of the fortress were built on the outer side of the central island fortress, a ring of fortified barracks of about two kilometers with walls two meters thick and about five hundred turrets, which could provide the necessary food and ammunition for 12,000 men. In the center of the central fortress stands the Cathedral of St. Nicholas, designed by the famous architect Gurimími, which began in 1856 and took 23 years to complete, making it not only the tallest building in the central fortress, but also an exceptionally strong fire support point.

Now the fort is crammed with a large number of war supplies and replenishment troops, and is a lively transit station.

Wounded soldiers from the front, equipment and ammunition waiting to be sent to the front, replenishment of troops, and infantry transferred from the rear were all crammed into the large fortress with a capacity of 12,000 men. Here, in order to prepare for the Polish counter-attack, sufficient anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were deployed. The anti-aircraft fire network they form can be said to provide enough air protection for the fortress.

Thus, although the Soviet Red Army lost part of the occupied part of the city under the counterattack of the Poles at the front, life was busy but still safe in the rear. In such a case, negligence was quite common among the defenders of the newly formed Brest Fortress. In particular, one of the fortresses was the base of the "air carrier", where in addition to more powerful anti-aircraft firepower, there were more combat aircraft.

This is where the "Thunder International" "Russian Imperial Guard" needs to overcome.

Ultra-low-altitude flight is not something that every pilot can do. If it weren't for the hazy hours before dawn that could draw a silhouette of those tall mountains and tree canopies, then I am afraid that the aircraft group would have been swallowed up by these mountains and trees when they approached the enemy's battle line.

Facing the growing sky in the north, approaching the enemy front, the altitude of the group decreased. In order to maintain the suddenness of the attack, the entire fleet no longer had any three-dimensional formation. If you look from the air, you will see that they are lined up in a long line of almost exactly the same height.

Underneath the fleet is the wide, mirror-like water of the Bug River. In the light of dawn reflected by it, the figure of the fighter plane slid forward in the river.

This was another Manstein ingenuity.

The river gives direction to the fleet, and the glitter of the river at night makes it much less dangerous for the group to fly. Such a flight was not a serious test for a good pilot in the first assault, at least not in the light of the Red Count Richthofen.

The air currents on the surface of the river supported the "Flying Blades", and the "Flying Blades" of the "Red Hunting Team" continued to rise and fall with these air currents.

200 kilometers per hour is not a strong challenge for the 260 kilometers per hour speed of the "Flying Blade". In less than an hour's flight, the strong Brest Fortress on the Bug River was in sight in the eyes of the pilots.

Successfully using a small trick to get rid of the brother's leader, Red Count Richthofen broke the radio silence and loudly began the final mobilization before the battle on the plane.

"Who are we, brethren?"

In the headset, the pilots' neat answers were heard.

"We are eagles, we dominate the skies!"

Listening to their answers, the Red Count Richthofen grinned in satisfaction, and then his pre-war mobilization with a unique taste.

"Who is our enemy?"

"Our enemies are respectable adversaries, and we must deal with them carefully!"

"God said, how to survive in the sky?"

"Maintaining our speed, accurate shooting and prudence are the virtues we always uphold!"

After saying the prayer that they had heard from an unknown "Bible", the pilots actually took the trouble to draw a cross on their chests together and ended their pre-war prayer with "Amen."

With the cry of the Red Count Richthofen, the fighters of the "Red Hunting Squad" quickly climbed high. As we know, as the trump card of air supremacy, they all use the real "Flying Edge", which is strongly different from the foreign trade version of the "Flying Edge" piloted by other pilots.

As they climbed, the engine made a strange roar in the wee hours of the morning. The defensive sirens of the Brest Fortress also sounded at the right time.

In the sky, more than 200 foreign trade versions of "Flying Dysprosium" belonging to the "Thunder International" brigade (fuselage of different materials, 4 127 mm machine guns) took advantage of the darkness before dawn to pounce here. In order to follow-up the attack, they must destroy the opponent's air and air defenses.

It is obvious that with a relatively large number of anti-aircraft fire in Brest, they could suffer considerable losses!

As the dawn gradually came, the war began!

In the sound of the siren, whether it was the officers who lived in the building or the soldiers in the tents, they looked at the sky with doubts on their faces. After all, in the early hours of the morning, in the rear so far from the front line, they would be subjected to a surprise attack that they probably never expected.

Faced with the stubborn resistance of the Polish troops on the Warsaw side, the Soviet Red Army transferred almost every available combat aircraft to field airfields on the front. This also reflects why the Chinese Federation originally intended to provide the Polish army with so many "Sabre" fighters on credit before the war. Probably, another purpose was to make the Soviet Red Army, in the face of air pressure, have to throw every combat aircraft in their hands into the front-line air combat.

The command apparatus of the Soviet Red Army also did not arrange any excessive vigilance in this direction. In their minds, in the face of the Polish army surrounded, here was their rightful rear.

The Soviet Red Army, which had never fought against the "Chinese Federation" or the "Thunder International", did not know that their opponents tended to avoid their attacks and target vital points on their supply lines.

Having been baptized by the Second World War, the military strategists of all countries now fully understand that destroying the other side's military machine in war is no longer the goal, and because of the changes in the depth of modern warfare, the countries whose military and economic potential are first destroyed will lose the victory of the war. If this strategic theory is applied here, then attacking the enemy's supply base and completely putting the other side in the disadvantageous situation of lack of supplies is the fundamental means of achieving tactical victory.

Soldiers of the Soviet Red Army rushed into battle, and they were horrified to find. Before the armor on their anti-aircraft guns had even been unfastened, the roar of more aircraft engines could be heard in the sky, and they began to dive down.

At the same time, the foreign trade version of the "Flying Blade", which attacked the airfield, also began to dive.

As an attack wave, destroying the "Sabre" fighters on the airfield that were on the air defense alert and were planning to take off urgently was their most important task. Secondly, there are the anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine-gun positions that are nervous in the siren and are operated by the gunners. Another task is to ensure that the "tadpole planes" loaded on those "air carriers" will not trouble their own ground forces in the subsequent ground attack operations.

Here, we can't help but wonder if Manstein had such confidence in the combat capabilities of a squadron of the Thunder International Flying Corps. Or maybe Cai Ye has been studying in the United States for a long time, and he has some inadequacy in grasping the details of this battle. Otherwise, why would they prepare so much for the attack wave, and there are hardly enough troops to complete the task.

We know that the "Thunder International" air power is similar in number to the number of the Chinese Federal Flying Corps. All of them are 6 aircraft squads, 6 squads and 66 squadrons. Since it is not difficult for us to calculate, the number of planes in the attack was only 216. Could it be that this light firepower swarm, which uses rockets and machine guns, can destroy so many targets?
