Chapter 512: Encirclement and Annihilation (II)

While Schmidt gave an urgent order, he quickly pulled up his own landline, the BF110, and the rest of the battles were under Schmidt's urgent order. They also quickly pulled up their own planes, and those bombers full of ammunition were miserable.

In just two minutes, six of the thirty-six bombers were shot down. The planes were either blown up in volleys or plunged headlong into the ground with a scream.

The entire fleet was in shock for the rest of its life, and Schmidt, who had just been regrouping, received an urgent report from the lead plane:

"A group of enemy planes was discovered, and the number was extremely large, about two hundred."

The two JU89s at an altitude of 10,000 meters are still flying according to the established route, while the group below is at an altitude of about 6,000 meters, and the general flight altitude of fighters at this time is only eight or nine thousand meters, and it is difficult to fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters, and the planes of the Allied and German forces are the same.

For example, the P40 fighter of the United States has an absolute ceiling of only 9,327 meters, and the German BF109 is the same, with a ceiling of only more than 9,000 meters, which is also the reason why the Allied B29 strategic bombers in history did not suffer much loss when they bombed the German mainland.

So a fighter with an altitude of just over 9,000 meters cannot attack a strategic bomber at an altitude of 10,000 meters? Yes, it is to use the roller coaster effect, to put it simply, the fighter first climbs to a height of 1,000 meters, and when it dives to an altitude of 7,000 meters, it must be a dive with full horsepower, and then gradually pull up the plane, and the fighter will fly to gain huge inertia and rush to an altitude of 10,000 meters, at this time the fighter can attack the bomber at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

This method is feasible, but the fighter jet that uses inertia to rush to an altitude of 10,000 meters. Because the air is so thin that it can't get enough lift continuously, his altitude will gradually decrease, even if the plane is at full power, and it will only stop lowering when it reaches the absolute ceiling.

But the German heavy fighter BF110 has a ceiling of 11,000 meters, which is several hundred meters higher than the flight altitude of the B29. This time, there are eight BF110s in Schmidt's fleet, and Schmidt will not let these planes go to war. Their mission was to protect the JU89 strategic bombers hidden at high altitudes. The JU89 is so valuable that there are now more than 150 of them in the whole of Germany.

"Understand, the BF110 combat group immediately climbed to an altitude of 10,000 meters, and your task is to protect the JU89 strategic bomber. No matter how brutal the battle is below. Don't forget your duty. Other aircraft, immediately meet the enemy. ”

The "buzzing ......" aircraft engines rang out, and Schmidt led the entire fleet. The Allied aircraft group rushed head-on, and only the more fiercely the two sides fought, the less chance the Allies had to spot the JU89 strategic bombers at high altitude.

"Click...... Woohoo......"

In an instant, the two groups met, and both sides opened fire in unison, and at this time everyone was flying in relative parity, and even if they had a flying advantage, it was difficult to give full play.

Countless ammunition shuttled through the air, and the screaming sound of "whooshing" was terrifying, and soon several planes at the head were emitting thick smoke and fell headlong, some Allied and German, and the first one was damaged by each other.

When the Allied and German fighters thought about it wrongly, the bombers protected by the Germans were exposed, and some of these Allied planes directly attacked the bombers flying in formation, while the other half of the Allied planes immediately made an emergency turn to intercept the German fighters that turned back.

The German bombers are very bulky, and the protection force is not very strong, they simply do not have the B29 which kind of hedgehog-like anti-aircraft weapons, fortunately, the German bombers are in close formation, or have some self-defense capabilities, but under the belly is their weakness, because the German bombers have no air defense towers under the belly.

This is also the main reason for the great losses of German bombers in history, and the self-defense firepower of German bombers is generally weak.

At this time, the German bombers were basically surrounded by forty or fifty Allied fighters;

"Click...... Woowoo woo ......"

In a short period of time, the Allied planes dropped six German bombers, some of them rolled in smoke, and some of them were blown up in volleys, but fortunately, the Germans were strictly disciplined, and the remaining bombers did not run around, but desperately resisted, while urgently approaching their own fighter group.

The fighter group led by Schmidt quickly turned the nose and went away at the Allied troops who attacked their bombers, and the other half of the Allied planes that also turned around certainly could not let Schmidt get his wish, and hurriedly came to intercept them.

Schmidt had no choice but to divide half of his fighters to entangle with these Allied planes, and the other half to fight immediately against the Allied fighters who attacked his own bombers.

At this moment, the whole sky was filled with planes flying up and down, and the sound of "whirring" wind, "clicking" machine guns, and "whining" planes were intertwined. The German BF109 and FW190 were still better than the Allied fighters in terms of performance, but Schmidt they had the task of protecting the bombers and did not dare to fly the bombers too far away.

This makes the strength of both sides about the same, and they can only brutally fight bayonets in the air, and there is another most important problem, that is, the quality of the pilots, the German pilots are all veteran pilots who have been on the battlefield for a long time, and although the pilots of the Allied forces are well trained, they have not participated in several actual battles, and they are basically rookie pilots.

In just twenty minutes of fighting, the Allies lost more than 80 of their 200 fighters, and the Germans also lost more than 50. The Allies didn't dare to entangle, they didn't have much ammunition, so they had to retreat, Schmidt's situation was not much better, the ammunition consumption was extremely serious, and some fighters had already run out of ammunition they carried, so they could only choose to return.

Excluding the planes returning home and those shot down, Schmidt's fleet had just over 70 planes left, more than 10 bombers, and more than 50 fighters.

Although Schmidt only had this plane left, he still could not return, and his mission was to blow up the military airfield in Paris, and the JU89 on their head was the focus, and their planes were just a cover to attract enemy fire.

At this time, Schmidt's fleet still had twenty minutes to fly from Paris, but they had just flown more than ten minutes and were approaching Paris when the Allied fleet appeared again, this time with two 200 planes, and it seemed that they wanted to completely eat Schmidt's entire fleet.

The fierce air battle started in an instant, and these were almost four or five Allied troops surrounding a German plane, and the disadvantage can be imagined, but all the German planes suddenly made a big turn at this time, turned around and began to flee, and at the same time all the bombers opened their magazines and bombed them indiscriminately.
