Chapter 738: The Lurking German Army

Next to these C-47 transport planes carrying Soviet paratroopers, British Royal Hurricane fighters and Spitfire fighters also cooperated with the Soviet Army's Il-2 attack aircraft group to escort the escort.

"Strange! We are so quiet below, our aviation forces of such a large size have reached the territory occupied by the Germans, why did they not make a sortie to intercept us? ”

"It's not like they didn't have radar detectors, or they didn't spot us!"

Clyde, a British pilot, said to another British pilot, Charles, using a radio communication device.

"Could it be that all the German troops were sent to Kharkov for bombing, and other areas for fighting? So they don't have extra planes left here in Leningrad? ”

"Or is it because it's night, so their air defense system is not very good and we are not detected?"

Charles of the British military pilot also responded with a puzzled face.

At the same time, he also concentrated his eyes and spirit on the surrounding airspace, in case the German anti-aircraft artillery group suddenly opened fire, or the German fighter group appeared.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he concentrated, he did not see the slightest trace of the German anti-aircraft artillery and fighter groups.

And while the two of them were talking, hundreds of Hurricane fighters and Spitfires were clustered around more than a hundred C-47 transport planes that took off from several large airfields in the rear of the Soviet army.

"Our transport aircraft group and fighter group are definitely very powerful in terms of size, and they have reached the best combat state in terms of personnel, morale and equipment, so we will definitely achieve an airborne victory this time and recapture all of Leningrad!"

On a C-47 transport plane, when all the paratroopers were ready, a Soviet commander cheered up the Soviet paratroopers.

"Ulla!"

All the Soviet paratroopers shouted in unison with great excitement.

"Good! Everyone gave me the readiness to parachute right away, and we went airborne before the German paratroopers and aviation units could detect and attack us! ”

Seeing that all the officers and soldiers were excited, the Soviet commander, who had just finished speaking to boost morale, shouted loudly.

"Ulla!"

All the paratroopers shouted loudly again.

"Good! Stand in place and skydive now! ”

"Quick! Hurry up! The paratroopers of the other transport planes have already begun to jump! ”

Then the Su commander also immediately roared loudly.

"Ulla!"

As soon as the words fell, all the Soviet paratroopers lined up and parachuted one after another.

In a few moments, the night sky was filled with hundreds of Soviet paratroopers.

At the moment when they parachuted, the German anti-aircraft artillery group was also immediately launched, and a fierce fire network was formed, and there were anti-aircraft machine guns constantly strafing the Soviet paratroopers who were in the air.

At the same time, 18 elite infantry divisions, including 3 armored divisions, more than 500 T-34 tanks, and a large number of machine guns and submachine guns, as well as anti-tank guns, were deployed in the area around Leningrad, especially in the periphery of the Soviet airborne army, as well as in the front-line area.

There are also a large number of special forces and commandos lurking in the woods, ready to intercept and kill those Soviet paratroopers who have successfully landed in the air.

"Our intelligence department's intelligence is really accurate this time! These Soviet troops really carried out airborne operations at this point in time! If we hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid they would have caught us off guard this time! ”

"That's right! However, the intelligence of our intelligence department is rarely so accurate! ”

"Yes! It is only after our FΓΌhrer took over and improved the intelligence agency that such efficient intelligence appeared! Otherwise, those SS and Gestapo, as well as those Wehrmacht intelligence officers, would not have sent back such good information so that we could ambush these airborne Soviet paratroopers! ”

"Hey! That's right! We are now able to intercept not only these Soviet paratroopers, but even their aircraft groups! ”

And looking at the night sky full of Soviet paratroopers, many officers and soldiers of the German infantry were talking about it.

Behind them, the high-ranking German officers had eagle-like eyes; Staring at the Soviet paratroopers in the sky, ready to seize the opportunity to kill.
