Chapter 1194: A Busy Night
At this time, the setting sun was spilling the last rays of afterglow on the base, and the fighters in the entire base were shrouded in a layer of gray light.
"Major Pokryshkin, welcome to Petersburg." After he jumped off the plane, the commander of the base, Colonel Alexander Golofanov, said to him: "You came so quickly. ”
After receiving the order, the 16th Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment was the first MiG-3 fighter unit to arrive, and at the same time, their ground crew, who had also boarded the train, would arrive here in the middle of the night, and when it was dawn tomorrow, they would go on a combat cruise near Petersburg.
The rest of the aviation regiments will arrive in Petersburg only tomorrow morning.
With the tiredness of the transition on his face, Pokryshkin said: "It is a great honor that we can fight side by side, and I hope that the ground crew can help us take off the auxiliary fuel tank first, fill us with fuel, and we will take off at any time." ”
Although the Germans said that they would not come until noon tomorrow, if they believed the promise of their opponents, they would definitely be laughed off, this is not the scene of a gentleman's duel a thousand years ago, in order to win, any means can be used.
Whenever there is an enemy, they must be dispatched immediately, even if they have just flown over and are exhausted.
"Captain, I really want to go now." Just as Pokryshkin was communicating with the commander of the base, his wingman Rechkalov also got off his plane, twisted his almost frozen head vigorously, and said to Pokryshkin.
Looking at his cold nose and swollen face, Pokryshkin was extremely big: "You didn't close the canopy again?" ”
In this day and age, all planes are no longer open-topped, but many pilots are reluctant to put a lid on their heads, which is simply a tradition.
And for the MiG-3, this is almost a lifesaver, this aircraft is flawed at the time of design, when flying at high altitude and high speed, its canopy cannot be opened.
That is to say, if there is a breakdown in this case, the pilot cannot parachute to escape, however, there is nothing to say, really in this case, it is not possible to parachute, at high speed, jump out and hit the vertical tail of the plane, and die even worse.
It's just that this argument is not accepted by all pilots, and many people open the cockpit canopy when they take off, and this way they fly over and freeze into dogs.
Hearing Pokryshkin's question, Rechkalov had no choice but to nod.
"How many times have I told you that when the canopy is open, the speed of the plane will be reduced, for us, speed is the magic weapon to win, don't always think about escape!" On the battlefield, it is absolutely true that those who are afraid of death will die the earliest, and only those who are not afraid of death can live for a long time.
Now, Rechkalov looked at the darkened base and said to Pokryshkin: "If it were on the battlefield, I wouldn't be thinking about running away, I would still be thinking about killing the enemy, captain, did you say that the Germans would come tonight?" ”
Looking at his eager subordinates, Pokryshkin was very emotional, in fact, he did not want the battle to come.
The bombers of the Germans left a deep impression on him, and those roaring F190 carved a deep imprint in his heart, for him, the Germans were a terrible enemy, he did not want to be enemies with each other, they were experienced, they fought everywhere, and most of their pilots came from aviation schools.
However, they don't have a choice, and that's their mission! In his vision, there would be a terrible battle tomorrow. And tonight, the harassment of the Germans will certainly not be less.
Darkness covers the land, and tonight, many are destined to be sleepless.
Latvia, border region.
A convoy is moving along the muddy road, Latvia is only a small country in the Baltic Sea, the economic strength is very poor, the domestic infrastructure is also quite poor, it was annexed by the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union did not give any benefits to Latvia, so that the people here can feel the warm embrace of the Soviets.
For them, there was no sense of identification with the Soviet Union at all, and in fact, even in later generations, when the Soviet edifice collapsed, it began with the three Baltic states.
The convoy was very secretive, they didn't turn on their headlights, and they relied entirely on night vision devices to move forward.
These vehicles, all of which were modified from Ford's four-axle-driven off-road trucks, had wide bodies, and the goods behind them were all shrouded in camouflage nets, and nothing could be seen, only the shape resembled cylinders.
In the convoy, there will be all kinds of combat vehicles, self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, and even one or two tanks, which is completely a mixed unit, so that people can't tell what kind of troops it is, in short, it is very mysterious.
This unit, even in Germany, was known to very few people, and the ordinary Wehrmacht had never heard of them, but only obeyed the orders of the Führer, and they were Unit 14 of the French SS.
They operated the V-2 missiles, and in their mouths, affectionately called the big carrots of Shirek.
In an 82-barrel car, SS Lieutenant General Hans Kamler, recuperating with his eyes closed, was ready to set off in two hours after receiving the task, maneuvering all the way from East Prussia to now, about to reach their destination.
The army was used for a thousand days, and it was said that they had only made one attack on Britain since they had been formed, and then they had died down again, as if they had never appeared.
Now, they are about to show their strength once again, making it impossible for the Soviets to resist.
Kammler couldn't sleep, his eyes were closed, but his mind was always on his mind.
Their current V-2 missile, the range is still too close, and now, under the leadership of Braun's group, the new V-4 missile is in full swing in a series of test flights.
In Libya, it is said that they once fired a range of 1,500 kilometers with the same accuracy as the current V-2 missile.
This is a second-class missile, which is more complicated to operate, but with a range of 1,500 kilometers, it sounds exciting. With this kind of missile, you can hit Moscow directly in East Prussia.
It's a pity that there has not been much progress in the miniaturization of thermobaric bombs, and their missiles can only carry conventional warheads, and if they can carry thermobaric bombs, it will be called powerful.
According to Führer Ciric's words, this is only the beginning of the missile, and Germany will build a larger missile, the largest, which can have a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, and hit directly on the other side of the ocean. At the same time, it is also possible to launch man-made aircraft into space, create a new era, and conquer space.
Kammler didn't have much of a sense of this plan, and in his eyes, what was the use of hitting into space? It's better to build more missiles to hit the United States. "Here we are." Just then, the car stopped.
Kammler pushed open the halfway door and walked down, it was a wood, not dense, and the stars could be seen twinkling in the sky overhead.
"Immediately unfold the equipment, calibrate the shooting elements, and there can be no deviation." Kammler said.
Their current main armament is the V-2 missile, and the circumferential error may reach an astonishing one kilometer, in addition to increasing the launch density and warhead power, they need to accurately determine their position, and if everything goes well, their error may only be 200 meters.
It was a busy night.
