"Perhaps, we have been silent for too long, so long that people forget that we exist!" Standing in an open space, an officer in a general's uniform looked at his subordinates with his hands behind his back and said.

His adjutant smiled, and then replied: "The Führer has lifted the ban on us and announced that it is ready to carry out combat missions. ”

"Excellent! I think, good! The general nodded, looked at the dark clouds that had dispersed overhead, and said: "Since the Soviets have forgotten us, let's remind them who is the master of this war!" ”

"Order, the strategic bomber units of the Imperial Air Force formed by the Führer and the Marshal to carry out strategic bombing missions against Moscow, it's time to show our strength!" After the general finished speaking, he walked to the building in the distance.

It was a German strategic air base built near the city of Minsk, which covered a huge area and was home to at least 100 German strategic bombers.

These Flying Fortresses, which were copied from the American B-17 strategic bombers with only a slight modification, were simply the new weapons of mass destruction in the hands of the Luftwaffe.

When Goering saw the formation of this air force, he confidently said to his subordinate Field Marshal Kesselring: "I can destroy one city at a time!" ”

In the direction close to the front line, the Luftwaffe assembled a full 300 JU-118 strategic bombers, which could deliver thousands of tons of bombs at a time, which even the United States does not have now.

The Luftwaffe, which had been depressed for a long time, took off the first round of bombers and carried out a ground bombing mission just after the sun was clear.

The first batch of more than 400 Stuka dive bombers, as well as more than 200 escort F-190D fighters, became a nightmare for the Soviet army.

The Soviet ground forces, which began to counterattack in the rain, soon fell apart and turned into an embarrassing retreat.

Fortunately, Rokossovsky's main forces had retreated to Tula, otherwise the elite south of Moscow might have faced a catastrophe.

Now, the field airfields near the front line are still busy, and the ground crews on the runway are busy hanging bombs for the JU-88 bombers in preparation for a new round of bombing of enemy positions.

After three days of rest, the Luftwaffe was full of energy, enjoyed the movie and wine, and the soldiers were full of fighting spirit and confidence!

Originally, the Soviet Air Force on the Eastern Front was weaker than the British Air Force, and it was simply vulnerable to the blows of the German ace pilots.

In this case, who wants to rest? Everyone wants to shoot down a few more enemy planes so that they can get the seniority badge of a super ace pilot as soon as possible.

The Führer stipulated that an ace pilot who shot down 100 enemy aircraft could receive the title of Super Ace. Such a pilot could wear a red medal in honor of Richthofen, a legendary pilot of the First World War.

Many pilots have already received this medal, because Soviet pilots on the Eastern Front often blindly take off to fight back, and then are shot down by German planes.

You know, both tactically, in terms of flight skills, and in the performance of aircraft, the Soviet Air Force was completely at a disadvantage.

So attacking these Soviet pilots, the German ace pilots don't even need too many tactics, as long as they cut in at high speed and break the opponent's formation, they can shoot down these panicked rookies like hunting.

The losses of Soviet pilots were very heavy, and after the start of the war, the main air force was wiped out seven or eight times out of ten.

So the Soviet pilots who are now taking off to meet the Luftwaffe are some real novices who have just learned to fly and do not have much combat effectiveness.

If it was placed in the air battle with Britain, the pilots would want to take a break, because the battle was often tense and fierce.

Even knowing the weakness of the British Air Force's Spitfires, it was not easy to shoot down these British pilots.

Dowding cherished his pilots very much, and if it weren't for the fact that they were disrupted by the shadows and lost their sense of proportion in battles such as the cross-sea attack on the port of Brest, the losses of the British elite pilots were actually not huge.

But the nightmare of the British pilots is over, and now it is a good time to hunt Soviet pilots!

The entire battlefield was full of cruising and patrolling German fighters, and the sky ruled by the Iron Cross, only the Iron Cross could fly!

Over the farms, over the trenches, hordes of F-190D fighters whizzed by, often striking targets they saw with their small bombs.

It was a nightmare for the Soviet ground forces, who were often confronted with German fighters with dive-strafing fire with impunity to the extreme.

Who said that the Soviet Air Force had thousands of fighters on the front line, but most of them were extremely backward I-16 fighters?

"Uh......h Bump Bump Bump! "After intense preparation, the first engine spun rapidly, followed by the second, then the third, and finally the fourth propeller to the point where it was impossible to see.

The huge wings moved slowly on the runway, and the newly trained co-pilots repeated the captain's orders over and over again.

They will learn the art of formation in flight, learn how to take off, land and fly in this aircraft - they will become the new captain in the future, and command and fly their own JU-118 strategic bomber!

Because the plane is too big, the vibration transmitted from the engine rotation to the fuselage is no longer obvious. This also has something to do with the weight of the bomb on board, the current JU-118 bomber, but it is a behemoth of more than ten tons!

Inside its spacious fuselage, which allows pilots to crawl inside, has an oversized bomb bay that is now filled with bombs, every single one!

These bombs were to be dropped into the city of Moscow, in order to reduce the loss of aircraft, this time the bomber formation used high-altitude bombing, bombing altitude of more than 8,000 meters!

At this height, few anti-aircraft guns could fire. Even Germany itself had only a small number of 128 mm caliber anti-aircraft guns that could hit even higher.

The famous 88 mm caliber cannon, which was equipped with the largest number of guns, although the firing height was sufficient, the interceptable area became smaller and smaller as the firing height increased, so that the defensive area was seriously reduced.

In the real historical time and space, the German army, equipped with tens of thousands of anti-aircraft guns, still appeared to be undermanned in the face of Allied bombing, which is the reason.

This time, the Luftwaffe's strategic bomber unit almost poured out, with the aim of making the Soviet defenders in Moscow feel the despair they should have felt a long time ago!

Under the bright sun, one after another JU-118 bombers began to take off, carrying countless bombs, and flew into the distance......

There's a little later, so you can watch it tomorrow morning!
