Chapter 274: Forbes Airport

When Captain Wagner's plane landed, Hansen was taken aback by the heavy anti-aircraft artillery fire from the ground. All 38 Messerschmitt-110 planes ran out of gas, and three of them had one engine damaged each. Hansen understood at this time that his brigade would have to risk a forced landing at Fornebe Airport. He gave the order to Lieutenant Lunt by radio:

"Your squadron is ready to land first, and we'll take cover."

Lieutenant Lent's plane turned to the left and began to land. At this moment, a puff of black smoke was emitted from his right wing, the engine was broken, and the propeller stopped turning. Due to the long runway at Fornebe Airport, the aircraft had to be grounded immediately close to the runway head.

But it is very difficult to accomplish this task with only one engine. At a distance of 100 meters from the head of the runway, the plane dropped too low, so Lunt turned the throttle to the maximum, turned to the right with the left engine, and barely entered the landing.

Lieutenant Colonel Hansen had been watching Lieutenant Lunt land, and they crossed the airfield in the direction of the runway, suppressing the Norwegians who were firing from concrete positions. Despite this, the machine-gun bullets chased the sliding plane, sending dust flying around it. Suddenly, Hansen saw a "Junker Mom" plane landing side by side with Lunt. It turned out that when Colonel Wagner's plane entered Forneb Airport, the pilot of his plane was killed by Danish anti-aircraft fire, and after circling for a week, he had to be forced to land by his successor co-pilot.

The "Junker Aunt" plane landed on the second runway. If the "Junker Aunt" and the Messerschmitt-110 aircraft collide at the intersection of the two runways, the airport will not work. Thankfully, the Messerschmitt-110 landed quickly and passed the intersection before the bulky Junkers.

But Lunt was unable to bring the plane to a stop, and the plane slammed into the slope. Then Hansen's plane began to make a forced landing, his right engine was also damaged, and white oil smoke was spewed from the exhaust pipe. A few meters above the head of the runway, he retracted the gasoline door, gently pulled back the steering stick, and then grounded.

Hansen's planes sped right next to the two burning Fighter planes and were out of range of Norwegian machine-gun fire. Hansen saw that Lunt's plane was clearing the runway for him, indicating that Lent had no accident. Strangely, the machine guns that were firing heavily at them were silent at this time.

It turned out that the Norwegian commander stationed in Foneb, unable to withstand the heavy fire of the German fighters, ordered the fighter planes to choose their own landing airfield and not to land in Foneb. As a result, only one fighter was left intact, the rest were damaged or abandoned due to lack of fuel.

When the German planes landed at the Forneb airport, the Norwegian commander had ordered all the defenders to evacuate the airfield, and after the German planes forced the landing, the Norwegian defenders knew that they had no way to defend the airfield, so they had to give the order to retreat. By the time Hansen landed, the Norwegian defenders had returned to Akershus Fortress with ground maintenance crews. Then the anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns stopped firing, and the defense of the Fornebu airfield collapsed like this.

As soon as Hansen jumped out of the plane, he directed the fighters who landed next to disperse to the northern edge of the airfield, so that the machine guns on the plane could freely control the forest area. In this way, a company of German paratroopers and German fighter pilots occupied the Forneb airfield.

After a 30-minute delay, the "Junker Aunt" plane, which had fallen behind in the middle of the first attack wave, also landed at Forneb Airport. At 9:17, all the "Junker aunts" landed. They slid all the way to the Norwegian light anti-aircraft artillery position. The infantry leisurely stepped out of the planes and moved their hands and feet, Forbnet Airport was completely naked in the hands of the German army, and it was not easy for the Norwegian army or the Anglo-French forces to retake Forbnet Airport, which gave Germany a springboard for a direct attack on the Norwegian capital.

In the British Ministry of Defense, an intelligence officer reads a message to Churchill:

"Honor, Mr. Churchill, Prime Minister, according to a telegram from the advance detachment of the Home Fleet, that the Germans had completely occupied the field of Forbune in the Norwegian capital at 9 o'clock on 9 November, I hereby order the marines of the British advance detachment to land immediately in Oslo, the capital of Norway, and to garrison there, to prevent the Germans from immediately capturing the Norwegian capital.

Commander of the Home Fleet Charles? Forbes

1939.4.9”

"Bumper ...... Fuck it, Hitler, damn scoundrel, bumper ......"

Churchill yelled at the intelligence officer with a splash of foam, and his large pipe kept banging on his desk.

"And that kid from the German army, Li Mo, oh my God!! Open your hazy sleepy eyes!! Why don't you punish the next two damn devils, scum, what a seed. I really don't know if the belt of the * son is not tightly tied, but these two miscellaneous pieces pop out to harm the British Empire, and the prostitute * customer didn't control the gun under him, aren't you pit Uncle I. ”

Churchill cursed viciously, and could only say that this dead fat man was of low character, and the gentleman on the surface was all fucking pretending. Besides, do you need to tie your belt? Of course not, the prostitute can control the gun under him, and it is not called a prostitute.

"Immediately send a telegram to the Marine Brigade of the advance fleet to land immediately in Oslo, the capital of Norway, and all of them to change into Norwegian uniforms, and immediately and immediately carry out the order, and order the Marine Brigade to hold on to the Norwegian capital."

"Yes"

……

The Forben airfield did not meet the Norwegian counterattack, but waited for the German Embassy in Norway's Army and Air Force attache, Captain Spreer, who had come to meet the airborne troops, and when he saw this, he immediately ordered the crew to send a report to his own country that the Forneb airfield had been controlled. As the airborne plan had been disrupted, the airborne troops were dispersed and landed at various airfields, and the combat units were airlifted to the Fornebu airfield only three hours later than the original.

The German Navy's fleet carrying land forces was blocked in the Oslo Fjord in the morning, mainly because the British advance fleet and the Norwegian navy joined forces to fight the German fleet, and anyway, Britain had now declared war on Germany during the Polish campaign, and both sides could attack each other's ships with impunity.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

Countless shells shuttled through the air, large-caliber naval guns smashed into the water, and the German high seas fleet and the British advance force were slightly stronger, but with those Norwegian destroyers and torpedo boats stirring up the situation, the battle situation became confusing.

As a result, in the melee, the flagship heavy cruiser "Blucher" was sunk by Norwegian shells and torpedoes at 7:23, and Admiral Rutte was wounded.

At this time, the German carrier-based forces were blocked by Norwegian warships and shore guns outside the port of Oslo, and they were still unable to dock...... R1152
