Chapter 729: A Song of Blood and Fire 1
As the first rays of sunlight rose from the horizon, it was already a busy scene on the Eagle's Nest airfield, with a whole 2 squadrons of 48 K-4 bombers neatly lined up on the tarmac, dozens of cars and hundreds of ground crews equipping these warhawks with terrifying talons!
Rows of 12.7mm machine gun rounds were fed into the magazines in the lower part of the machine gun. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The INFO ground crew sent the carts dedicated to the bombs under the wings of the planes, and then used jacks to lift the bombs and connect them to the pylons, and the refueling trucks went to the middle and rear of the planes, using fuel pipes to feed hundreds of kilograms of fuel into the bodies of these new era masters.
Once the armament and fuel have been refueled and the crew is on board, a towing squad tows the huge war machines to the end of the runway and begins to line up for takeoff. Bombers were staggered in the take-off area, and with the roar of the engines, the huge wooden propellers began to rotate rapidly, and the roar of nearly 100 aero engines when they started was as terrifying as thunder. The Bavarian warhawks are finally proving their worth on the battlefield.
At the same time, at the rear of the battlefield, a K09 long-range cannon has been put in place, and the range of up to 22km is enough for them to suppress more than 80% of the Russian artillery. Huge annular artillery bunkers have been repaired, and a gun has been placed in the center of the bunker, protected by a 2-metre-high civil engineering breastop, and a trench directly behind the gun emplacement, which leads to another annular bunker not far away, in which a large number of shells are hoarded.
The thick 150mm heavy barrel gun had been raised high, and the guncrew was sitting on the final preparations for the battle, and they now took some of the ammunition out of the ammunition stacking point in the rear, then set the shell signal, and placed the shells on the conveyor directly behind the gun.
And not far from the front line, a large number of 210mm heavy howitzers were deployed, they were the most powerful heavy hammers in the Bavarian Legion, 100kg heavy grenades were simply devastating for infantry and fragile fortifications in the wilderness, "a shell goes down, and then it can be used as a fishpond by pouring water into it." Although this statement is an exaggeration, the powerful power of the 210mm heavy gun is also undoubted, and at this moment, as many as 16 210mm heavy guns and a large number of 150mm heavy howitzers have been deployed to the front line. Their task was to smash to smithereens the defenses that the Russians had just built not far away.
Armored Mike is also making the final preparations, this time he is not alone, in addition to the Lancer battle group, there is another battle group called the Dragon Slayer, their coat of arms is a samurai armed with a heavy sword and a dragon, so he was given such a nickname. Although this battle group has not been established for a long time, it does lead the team with armored Mike's old opponent, firefighter captain Lienhardt.
In previous exercises, Panzer Mike played the attacking side. Hart, on the other hand, plays the defensive side, and the opponent's various tricks and strange but effective defensive deployments cause endless troubles for Mike. If it weren't for the fact that the real PK couldn't beat this strong man from the Bavarian countryside, Mike swore that he would beat him once when he saw her!
The two armored battle groups have been strengthened again, they have an extra battalion of infantry units, and they have more vehicles for logistics and transport, and after the heavy artillery and bombers open the way forward, they will launch an unprecedented attack! Concentrate all your forces to break through the Russian heavy army group in front of you!
"Solid Iron King Eight! Follow Lao Tzu and eat ashes! "Armored Mike sent out a telegram in a rather mischievous manner.
"Be careful not to get your front teeth broken, cowards who won't attack!" Soon Lieutenant Colonel Hart called back.
Behind the two armoured battle groups were three regiments of cavalry, but a considerable number of these cavalrymen had already been transferred to vehicles, and they would be thrown into battle as infantry in battle, but based on previous combat experience, the armored clusters and motorized infantry in front would solve the problem, and they would just have to ...... on the road.
Behind the assault division, there were 1 rapid division and 1 ordinary division. After the assault division has broken the opponent to pieces, these follow-up units will be responsible for encircling and clearing up. He then continued to follow in the footsteps of the Panzer Vanguard and attack in depth. Their goal was to completely knock out the front of the Russian army group!
When there was still a day left before the time of the general attack of the Russians, the Bavarian army had already attacked, and the roaring death in the air was the prince's first gift to the Russians!
"What sound?" A busy Russian artilleryman suddenly put down his shovel and looked up, and following the direction of the sound, he saw a small black dot appear in the sky, and a burst of buzzing echoed in his ears.
Soon, though, he went back to work amid the officer's leashes and curses, so that not many people paid attention to these things before the Grim Reaper attacked!
"Oh God! It's such a big plane, I thought it was an airship! "When the bomber unit flew over the heads of the Russians from a distance of 1,000 meters, the Russian troops who saw it were first very surprised by such a miraculous device, but when they saw something like a bomb under the wing and the long barrel sticking out of the front of the fuselage, they knew that this was the deadly Grim Reaper!
The bomber forces did not embarrass the infantry in these trenches, how could their precious fuel and bombs be wasted on this garbage? The heavy artillery positions behind were their main target, and after reaching the bombed airspace, the K-4 bomber formation lowered the target further, flew over from a height of 300 meters or even 150 meters, and then dropped a lethal bomb!
A 50kg or 100kg bomb roared down from the sky, the Russians' artillery position defense was relatively limited, most of the artillery was almost placed on the flat ground, the flames and smoke columns produced after the explosion of a bomb quickly covered the position, in a cloud of gunpowder smoke and continuous explosions, rows of artillery were quickly reduced to a pile of scrap metal.
After the first wave of bombs was dropped, the machine guns carried by the K-4 bombers began to slaughter the convoys and horse teams behind the artillery positions, and the fiery snakes danced wildly on the ground as the planes moved, and just a few incendiary bombs could reduce a cart to ashes. The neighing and struggling of the horses, as well as the scattered crowd of people, caused chaos in the rear. Bombers flew over the sky like the embodiment of death and fear, clearing one position before moving on to the next.
