Berlin, Luftwaffe Command.

Originally, Richthofen was in the wolf's den, where there was also his office, and even fully performed the functions of the Air Force command.

But after discovering the bomber forces of the Soviets, he returned to Berlin.

If the Soviets want to launch an air attack, then Berlin is definitely the first choice, he has to stay in Berlin, so that he can be on the front line to command, and at the same time, it is also a kind of confidence in him, with him, the Soviets will not succeed in bombing!

He will let all the Soviets' bombing come to naught!

Richthofen was quite confident, and now Germany had ten night fighter squadrons, which were on the French coastline and around Britain to guard against cross-sea attacks by the Americans, to protect the capital near Berlin, and to defend against Soviet bombardment in Belarus and Ukraine.

If the Soviets were to come from the east, they would definitely be the first to be spotted by the night fighter units they had deployed on the Eastern Front, and then beat them up at night.

Now, Richthofen is strategizing, even if the other side breaks through the defenses and runs into the sky over Berlin to spread wilderness, the night fighter units near Berlin, and the dense anti-aircraft artillery of Berlin, will teach the other side to behave.

The most effective thing is that Germany has completed the integration of fire control radar and anti-aircraft artillery, and now that Germany's electronic technology is advancing rapidly, they have begun to equip anti-aircraft artillery with fire control radar.

When the radar finds the target, the calculation of the shooting elements, and then the anti-aircraft artillery can fire at the sky, compared with the previous mode of using searchlights and anti-aircraft guns, the progress is great, and the shooting is more ferocious, if the other side dares to fly over, you will know that the sky of Berlin is impregnable.

Richthofen was confident, but when an urgent report from Finland came, he was a little confused.

Germany did not have a large radar station in Finland, after all, Finland was not the point at all, and like other servant countries, it played the role of soy sauce. The bombers of the Soviets will not run to bomb, and even if they do, they will not bring any losses to the Reich.

Therefore, Finland did not detect the Soviet bombers flying over, but they listened to suspicious radio communications, and when the contents of the radio communications were deciphered, Richthofen only felt strange.

Bomber swarms of the Soviets, entered Finnish airspace?

In everyone's mind, the Soviet bombers should have come from the east, and even Richthofen was no exception.

The Soviets flew from east to west, flying over Finland, what was there to bomb them? Is it to bomb the mines of Sweden? Even if you don't use the Swedish mines, the mountains of ore you have stored are enough to last for several years.

It shouldn't be.

At this time, Richthofen was strange, his eyes were looking at the large-scale map hanging on the wall, and he could not think of the Soviets' intentions.

Moreover, without the scanning of the radar, there would be no specific data on the target, it is not known how many there are, the course is not known.

Richthofen looked at his watch, and it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

"Keep an eye on them." So saying, Richthofen put on his military coat and walked to a marching bed propped up beside him, intending to squint for a while, he was too tired.

From the point of view of common sense, Finland is too far away from Germany, and it is impossible for the other side to come around in such a circle.

Maybe it's just one or two small planes of the Soviets' Ry-2, secretly transporting something to the resistance behind enemy lines, and this kind of action can be handed over to those local troops, which are not under the jurisdiction of their own air force, otherwise the air force will die of exhaustion.

After all, night fighters are only suitable for intercepting high-altitude bombers, and if a small plane is flying close to the ground, then the radar of a night fighter cannot detect it at all.

As a result, Richthofen ignored this information.

In the sky, the bomber formation continued to fly south, they flew through Finnish airspace, crossed the Baltic Sea and entered Poland.

At this point, there was no Poland anymore.

When Germany and the Soviet Union partitioned Poland together, there was no Poland as a country, Germany had direct jurisdiction over Poland in the west, and while the war of invasion of the Soviet Union was won, the original inhabitants of Poland began to move to Belarus and Ukraine in the east, and the remaining lands belonged to the German people.

Therefore, it is also part of German territory, and on the northern coastline, scattered field radars are distributed.

Yes, after discovering that the Soviets had introduced new bombers, the German Air Force increased the number of ground-based air defense radars, although many large radars could not be deployed, there were still some field radars mounted on off-road trucks, and their search range was generally not far, which was a supplementary role.

At this time, on a radar car, several radar soldiers were looking at the radar screen, and the power generation car not far away rumbled, which was destined to be a boring night.

Suddenly, several bright spots appeared on the screen, and when they saw the bright spots, the radar soldier instantly exclaimed: "Look, what is that?" ”

Dense bright spots, appearing on their screens, flew from the north, quickly flew in the direction of the south, because the radar had a limited range, so in total, it did not appear on the screen for a long time.

"It's a flying unit, maybe our troops are training." One of the radar soldiers couldn't help but say: "Flying from the direction of Finland, it could also be a transport plane." ”

If they had been negligent a little longer, perhaps the alarm would have passed, but a radar soldier who had just enlisted in the army was very serious: "We do not have this fleet in today's flight announcement, and besides, it is nighttime, and the other side is a large group of planes. ”

He looked at the notices issued every day, and there were no reports of the fleet he had just encountered, and behind them, within 200 kilometers, there were almost no air defense radars.

Germany's deployment is also a typical tightening on the outside and loose on the inside, after all, resources are limited, and it is impossible to closely monitor all the airspace with radar, even in the future.

"Report it." When the squad leader came over, he heard this analysis and immediately made a decision.

An unknown flying unit, numbering more than ten, from the Baltic direction, flew over the Polish coastline and is flying in depth!

The news, reported at the level of the report, soon reached the headquarters in Berlin, and when Richthofen was woken up, he felt his eyelids jumping.

It is even more suspicious if it is linked to radio intelligence in the skies over Finland half an hour ago, this is the same flight formation!

"Their goal is not Berlin." Richthofen said that now he can already determine that this is a Soviet bomber formation, although he does not know how he flew to Finland and then south, but now he can conclude that the other side must be Soviet.

They had come to bomb the German mainland, and the terrible thing was that they had already flown over land, and they actually flew south from the direction of Finland, and as a result, they perfectly avoided the night fighter units that they had arranged!

So what is their goal?
