The sky was still clear after the most ferocious artillery fire since the Sicily landings, but the British and American air forces were unhindered in carrying out indiscriminate large-scale bombardments with the support of naval artillery groups and American artillery groups that had already landed, and repeatedly bombarded the entire Sicily.

The old German and Italian headquarters built on Sicily, as well as various communications offices, military installations, munitions storage sites and other buildings, were bombed by the British and American air forces, and were bombed into a sea of fire and ruins.

The Sicilian inhabitants of the island, as well as some Italian soldiers holding white flags and preparing to surrender, were hiding in panic in various air-raid shelters or air-raid buildings on the island, shivering, praying that the British and American air raids would pass quickly.

Of course, there are also those powerful naval artillery bombardments, and I hope that they will stop soon.

However, the British and American air forces and their huge fleet did not seem to have any intention of stopping the bombing immediately, especially after they had carried out a large-scale bombing for almost three days, and still did not see how many German troops were bombed by them to counterattack, or suffered casualties.

For this reason, these pilots of the British and American air forces became even more angry, and wanted to bomb the whole of Sicily into scum and sink into the sea.

"What the hell is going on? Why have we bombed for so many days, so many aerial bombs, but on the islands except those Sicilian civilians and those Italian troops who are of little use; Why haven't we seen many German troops appear! ”

"These German troops are like a dream bubble, can they all be invisible?"

"Or maybe we all blew it up, we don't know yet! But I didn't see how many corpses there were! ”

U.S. pilot Stephen Amer was flying his B-17 bomber to bomb and talk to David Nut, a pilot next to him.

"Maybe the Germans have already abandoned Sicily! All of them have been evacuated to mainland Italy! Isn't the battle of Cassino and Gustav already underway? ”

"I think the reason for this will be greater, or the whole of Sicily would have been bombed by us for several days and nights; The German army, neither the aviation army nor the anti-aircraft artillery unit, has ever appeared once, and even the army has only seen a company or so of troops! ”

David Nat also replied in confusion.

Because he and his pilot Stephen Amer followed a large number of British and American bomber groups, and carried out carpet-like bombardment on the whole of Sicily for three days and three nights, but they did not find many German shadows, let alone how many German soldiers were killed by them.

For the German company he had just said he had seen was also extremely scattered throughout Sicily, and it was quickly evading their bombardment.

"Then why are we bombing this place now? Is it a waste of aviation bombs? ”

"Since there are no more German troops in Sicily, why not just hand over the task of capturing Sicily to those armies? Aren't they all seven seven eight eight already landed? ”

Pilot Stephen Amer was very upset and exasperated.

"We are just ordinary bomber pilots, just follow the orders of our superiors for combat operations, why are you so nervous and anxious?"

"Actually, I don't want to meet those German air forces so quickly, because their fighter groups and bomber groups are more advanced and powerful than ours!"

"The performance of our aircraft is not at the level of the other side at all, so we have no advantage at all in fighting in front of those new aircraft groups of the German army!"

"Even if we let us win more and less, I believe that our aviation forces will definitely pay a heavy price, and even before the German aviation force has been completely annihilated, it has already been severely damaged or annihilated by them!"

David Nat retorted disagreeing.

"Humph! When have you been so cowardly, if I could run into those German planes now, then I would definitely shoot them all down and let them be human again! ”

"Hey! Nat! Don't forget, I'm an ace pilot! ”

"Those aces of the German army, I am not afraid at all!"

"What if they were given more advanced planes? I am confident in my flying prowess and combat prowess! ”

When pilot Stephen Amer heard this, he immediately retorted confidently.

When David Nat heard this, he smiled helplessly.

"Please be careful! The enemy's air corps, which was spotted in the direction of 8 o'clock, was flying at high speed at a target distance of 2800; All aircraft groups immediately entered a state of combat counterattack and maintained a high degree of vigilance! ”

But just then, the two of them suddenly heard a radio command from their flight captain.

David Nut and pilot Stephen Amer immediately glanced at each other, and the two immediately nervously piloted their B-17 bombers, ready to follow the group in defensive and counterattack operations.
