The first attack by the Luftwaffe's strategic bomber force undoubtedly showed extremely strong attack power. Kazan, an important industrial city, was almost destroyed. The aircraft factory, which was a key target of the Luftwaffe, was completely destroyed. This has directly dealt a great blow to the aircraft production capacity of the Russian Air Force.

When the Luftwaffe bomber group finished dropping bombs and swaggered away, only the Russians on the ground were left to clean up the mess with a heavy heart. They knew that the Luftwaffe bombing caused them huge losses. But what they don't know is that this is just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, the Luftwaffe's strategic bomber units, which had tasted the sweetness, would continue to attack the big cities in Russia, destroying all the factories in these cities, further attacking the war potential of the Buenos and Russia, so that they could not hold on in the next war.

Modern wars are fought with comprehensive national strength. Industrial strength is undoubtedly the most important part of comprehensive national strength. Once the industry is destroyed, it will be impossible for the Burussians to hold out in the middle of the war. Even if they still had tens of millions of troops, but there were no bullets, no shells, not even guns, what would they do to fend off the Germans? You can't really let the soldiers fight the Germans armed to the teeth with their bare hands! In that case, the Buenos and Russia will not last long in the war at all, and will soon be completely defeated.

Even if the Americans do not sit idly by and watch Russia's defeat, they will continue to provide support to Russia. But unfortunately, the capacity of the Trans-Siberian Railway simply cannot meet the consumption of tens of millions of Russian troops.

The Kremlin, Joseph's office. After deciding that the target of the Luftwaffe bombing was not Moscow, Joseph left the dugout. However, his face was still very ugly. Because he knew that since the Germans could bomb the hinterland cities of Burussia, it meant that they could bomb Moscow at any time if the Germans wanted to, which was like a sword hanging over their heads, which could fall at any time. This feeling made Joseph a little worried. He didn't want to be hit by a German air raid even if he was still asleep. In that case, the consequences will undoubtedly be very serious.

At half past ten in the morning, Shaposhnikov entered Joseph's office with Colonel-General Astachhov and Colonel-General Zavoronkov.

"Comrade Joseph, the air raids of the Germans are over." Shaposhnikov reported.

Joseph put down the document in his hand and glanced at Shaposhnikov and the others. This look made the three of them feel a piercing coldness, and they could feel the suppressed anger in Joseph's heart. If it breaks out, they're all going to suffer.

"How's the situation in Kazan?" Joseph asked in a cold tone.

"Comrade Joseph, Kazan was bombed by more than a thousand heavy bombers of the Germans, and most of the city was destroyed by the Germans. Our aircraft factory in Kazan was also completely destroyed. Those Yak-1 fighters, which had just begun to be assembled, were all destroyed! Admiral Astakhov reported.

"Bastard!" Joseph couldn't help but scold. Although he had expected this to be the result a long time ago, after hearing that the loss was so great, he still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

Shaposhnikov and the others were suddenly silent and did not say a word.

"Is there any way to protect against the bombing of the Germans?" Joseph asked.

"Comrade Joseph, we may be able to get the Americans to support our radars. If there was a radar, it would be possible to detect the German fleet first, and then be prepared. Colonel-General Zavoronkov said.

"Radar? I will put the People's Commissariat of Foreign Affairs in touch with the Americans. Was it possible to avoid bombing by the Germans with radar? Joseph then asked.

"Comrade Joseph, I'm afraid this is very difficult. We simply do not have a way to intercept the bomber groups of the Germans at the moment. The German bomber groups flew at altitudes of up to tens of thousands of meters, and the fighters we are now equipping, neither the P-40 fighters supported by the Americans nor our own I-16 fighters, could fly to such altitudes. Unless the Yak-1 fighters can enter service, they cannot be intercepted. In addition, the Germans equipped these bombers with escort fighters. The performance of these fighters is very advanced, and we have lost more than 300 P-40 fighters in previous battles. It can be seen that these P-40 fighters were simply vulnerable in front of the German escort fighters. Admiral Astakhov said.

Joseph's face couldn't help but be even more ugly, he read the report and knew that the P-40 fighter was a little more advanced than the I-16 fighter of the Russian Air Force. But even the P-40 fighters were vulnerable, apparently not to mention the I-16 fighters. Even if he flew into the sky to fight, it was estimated that he would only be tortured and killed by the Germans.

"When will our Yak-1 fighter be able to enter service if it is reorganized into production?" Joseph asked.

"Comrade Joseph, it is necessary to re-produce the corresponding parts, as well as other preparatory work, which is estimated to take more than half a year!" Colonel-General Zavoronkov said.

Previously, in order to speed up the production of aircraft, they deliberately placed the parts factory of the Yak-1 fighter around the assembly plant, but no one thought that this would be convenient for the Luftwaffe and serve them in a pot.

"Half a year? No, it's too long. Three months, I need to see our Yak-1 fighters flying in the sky in three months, fighting the Germans! Joseph gave the order unreasonably.

Admirals Astakhov and Zavoronkov knew that this task was very difficult to accomplish. However, in the face of Joseph's strength, they had no choice but to accept it.

"Comrade Joseph, the mass bombardment of the Germans has begun, and I fear that their bombardment will continue. When the time comes, many of our factories will probably be bombed by their heavy bombers. This will be very detrimental to our next war. Shaposhnikov said.

"Is there any way to deal with it?" Joseph asked.

"At the moment, we are afraid that we will have to continue to move the factory east. Migrated east of the Ural Mountains to Yekaterinburg and Chelyabinsk to go. In this way, it may be possible to escape the bombardment of the Germans. ”

Although Joseph felt very aggrieved to run away in this way, he had no choice but to accept this suggestion when there was no other way.
