Chapter 1427: Just act together
"The Soviets are exploiting the Volga-Ural oil fields on a large scale, and our reconnaissance this time found that at least 30 oil wells are being drilled, and we can also see that there are new refineries in the vicinity." The pictures taken by the aerial camera were quickly cleaned up, and when they got the pictures, everyone was excited.
"Well, it looks like it's really good now, we're going on a massive bombing campaign!" Rommel, as the person in charge of this operation, was in a very good mood: "I think that we will not only bomb these oil fields, but other factories near the Ural Mountains, but we will also bomb them on a large scale and efficiently. ”
This reconnaissance flew all the way to photograph not only the oil fields, but also many newly built factories near the Ural Mountains.
As Germany continued to advance, the Soviet Union took full advantage of the vast territory of its territory and began to systematically transfer some factories to the rear, and with the help of the United States, these factories also began to be built, which was also a windfall.
Hearing Rommel's words, Colonel Helmtpole, the head of the bombing force this time, couldn't help frowning: "Marshal, we only came with twenty Junkers-290s this time, and if we want to bomb so many targets, I'm afraid we won't have enough at once." ”
This is not to worry about being intercepted by the opponent's aircraft during the second bombing, after all, the Junkers-290 has an altitude advantage, and the Soviet Union's high-altitude fighters are not enough to protect Moscow, so they cannot be mobilized in time.
The main reason is that the target to be bombed is the oil field, and after the first bombing, the oil field will definitely be full of fire, billowing smoke will rise, and the target will be completely covered, causing great trouble to the second bombing, and it is not easy to aim at the target.
They had to blow up the oil fields all at once, and they wouldn't be able to separate planes to blow up other factories.
Rommel nodded: "Yes, it seems that in order to complete this mission, we can only use what kind of weapon to destroy the entire city." ”
Hearing Rommel's words, everyone's faces were filled with excitement: "Marshal, what kind of weapons require strict approval, if you go and ask for instructions, maybe we can still get them." ”
The specific reason, no one knows, is it because it is too precious, or is it to prevent leaks? In short, after the bombing of Petersburg, they did not use this weapon again.
It can be seen that in the eyes of Führer Ciric, this weapon is used as a strategic weapon.
The bombing of oil fields can be regarded as a strategic consideration.
From a tactical point of view, to blow up an oil field, if you use ordinary bombers, there are at least three or so Junkers-290, and you can only blow up with precision-guided munitions, if you use that kind of weapon, one is enough, enough to destroy an oil field, and by that terrible shock wave, you can collapse all the oil wells and kill all the oil workers.
Rommel's request soon reached the wolf's den, where preparations were being made for a new battle.
"The Soviets quickly deployed a defensive line behind Smolensk, and they would never have thought that an armored group of our Central Route Army had already moved south and rushed straight to Kyiv!"
Since Ciric began to command Germany, every battle has been extremely exciting, and this time, the southward movement of the Central Route Army is even more of a big deal.
When Smolensk was taken, almost everyone would have thought that the Germans' goal was to attack Moscow, and as a result, half of the powerful Central Route Army had been divided, and the 4,000 tanks of the 2nd Panzer Group in the south, and hundreds of thousands of powerful troops, had already rolled south.
At this time, the command of the Soviets was still in chaos, they did not discover their new plan, and when the second armored group arrived in Kyiv, it was the end of the millions of defenders in Kyiv!
"Now, the Central Route Army is moving south at the highest speed, and it is expected that the day after tomorrow, they will be able to appear in the east of Kyiv, and Timoshenko thinks that relying on the Dnieper River can stop us, but he does not know that this will not work for us at all." Keitel said he had great admiration for Ciric's conducting skills.
Ciric nodded: "Yes, as long as the defenders of Kiev are eaten, the Soviets will know that in front of our huge army, the Soviets have no possibility of resistance at all, and for them, surrender is the best option!" ”
"The Führer Shirek, Marshal Rommel, called with a request to use thermobaric bombs to deliver a blow to the oil base in the Urals." Just then, Rommel's telegram arrived.
Thermobaric bomb!
All along, Ciric has been very cautious about the use of this weapon, one of the important reasons is that he is afraid of leaking secrets, once the Soviets and Americans master this weapon, for Germany, it will be a big trouble, it is good to talk during the day, come at night, throw a few such bombs, German cities will be in great danger.
Therefore, it cannot be used unless it is necessary.
After the bazooka incident, Ciric's thinking has also begun to slowly change, and now, he is no longer so scruples about the use of new weapons.
Moreover, the time is just right, blowing up their oil fields, leaving the Soviets facing a shortage of oil, and they will not be able to cope with their own encirclement of Kyiv.
Since you want to blow it up, it's better to blow it up!
"Yes." "In the past few days, after letting them take off with high intensity and blow up the oil field, the nearby factories, as well as oil refineries, oil storage tanks, etc., have been blown up for me!" ”
In this era, the Soviets had almost no strategic oil reserves, basically producing as much as they wanted, and blowing it up at once would stop all the heavy equipment of the Soviets.
If this is the case, it is not enough to bomb the Volga-Ural oil fields, think of a report by Rommel the other day, where Shirek continued: "Let our Libyan base transport the latest high-speed vehicles to Iran and help Iran cross the Caspian Sea, and now it is time for the Iranians to do the same, and the Turks must not be allowed to bleed all the time!" ”
Now, as the German-occupied zone continues to expand, the status of the Libyan base has become less and less, but the level of secrecy is still the highest, and the development there is the most powerful.
Among them, it also includes a newly developed high-speed vehicle, with the help of these tools, they can send their vanguard troops up, now the guards on the side of the Baku oil field are quite empty, a small number of vanguard troops, can control the oil field, their main task is not to fight, but to prevent the oil field employees from destroying the oil field, a large number of troops can also follow up.
If you want to move their oil fields, just move them together, in this era, there is no oil, look how the Soviets still fight against their own armored forces!
