Bombers can't fly fast with bombs, as long as the bombs are thrown, the speed of German bombers is not much slower than that of fighters, not to mention that they still have the cover of German fighters, and there is not much problem in escaping.

As soon as Schmidt chose to flee shamefully, the Allied planes immediately launched a pursuit, Schmidt retreated while resisting, and losses were inevitable, but then the Allied planes could not have dreamed that Schmidt was actually luring the Allied planes to the Paris airport and attracting their attention at the same time.

The high-altitude JU89 was covered by several BF110 heavy fighters, and then the cover of the clouds, successfully broke through to the sky above the large military airport in Paris and began to reduce the altitude, the anti-aircraft artillery fire arranged by the Allies at the airport actually did not shoot, and they saw the big guy in the air, and thought it was their own B29 strategic bomber.

When tons and tons of bombs "slammed" into the sky, the earth-shattering explosion of "boom ......" woke up these allied troops, and they hurriedly ran to the gun position and fired fiercely at JU89 in the air, but it was too late at this time.

JU89 carried ten tons of bombs, each bomb was 500 kilograms, and the Germans also used a delayed fuse, 500 kilograms of bombs, dropped from a height of 6,000 meters, can penetrate the one-meter-thick cement pavement of the airport runway, and then drill into the ground more than 10 meters before exploding violently.

Then such a 500-kilogram bomb can blow up a large crater about 25 meters deep and 100 meters wide, and a single bomb on a runway can completely blow it up. The large military airport in Paris has only four runways in total, and two JU89s carry more than enough 20 tons of bombs.

Even the tarmac. Oil depots, ammunition depots and other heavy places were patronized by such 500-kilogram bombs. At this time, the whole was completely plunged into a sea of fire, and more than a dozen B29s on the tarmac were all turned into various parts, and the flames from the explosion of the oil depot and ammunition depot rushed directly into the air for more than a thousand meters.

The guards of the airport would never have survived such a violent explosion. Paris airports are finished.

Other Allied airfields, also lured by German decoys, were successfully raided, and the Allies repaired more than a hundred airfields in France. Seventy percent was successfully blown up. Less than fifty airfields survived.

At the beginning of the air raids, the German army lost very large aircraft of various types, and in the first wave of sorties, the German army lost more than 1,000 aircraft of various types. Because the Allies have more than thirteen thousand. More than twice as many as German aircraft. But the Germans used this decoy tactic to make their Allied airfield assault very successful.

As soon as the final results were counted, Eisenhower was stunned, the first wave of air raids by the Germans. It blew up more than 3,000 bombers parked on the ground by the Allied forces, including more than 200 B29 strategic bombers of all Allied forces.

The loss of fighters was not large, only more than 1,000 aircraft, which was about the same as the losses of the German army. However, the Allied forces that have lost their bombers are like flies that have lost a wing, and countless other airfields have been blown up, and the range of activities of the Allied air force will be greatly limited.

Eisenhower hurriedly redeployed the intact planes to the remaining airfields in preparation for the second wave of German air raids.

But they waited left and right, but they did not see a single German plane flying over the Maginot Line. At this time, Li Mo was looking at the battle results statistics table and laughing! As long as the Allies lose the vast majority of their bombers, then they will not have much threat to the armored forces under their command, and their super blitzkrieg will go more smoothly.

Of course, the Allies, who had lost most of their bombers, could no longer carry out large-scale air raids on industrial facilities in Germany, and this was the crisis that Li Mo feared the most, and now it has finally passed, even if the Allies have this comprehensive national strength to replenish the bombers of the Allies in France at an extreme time.

It will take at least two or three months! After all, there are almost more than 20,000 nautical miles from the United States to Britain, which is a very long distance, and even if the United States is strong, it is impossible to have so many bomber stocks!

Limer's refusal to order the German air force to carry out a second air raid also gave Eisenhower a wrong judgment, making Eisenhower think that the German air force had suffered heavy losses and was not capable of fighting the Allied air force for attrition.

If the Germans really crushed all the Allied air forces, then Eisenhower would definitely leave the Patton Corps and escape, and if the Allies really pulled more than 2 million people to Britain, then these two hundred elite troops would be a sharp knife placed in the German unit anytime and anywhere, and they could stab Germany in the abdomen at any time.

Therefore, Li Mo definitely did not want Eisenhower to escape, in order to prevent Eisenhower from escaping, he could only continue to give the Allied Air Force a chance to live, although this would make the Luftwaffe pay more costs, but this price was very necessary for the entire strategy.

……

"Damn the Nazis...... Damn the little mongrel of the Krupp family...... Touching ......"

Eisenhower, who was originally polite, looked at the battle damage table in his hand, and was completely angry, just one day of fighting, the Allies lost more than 4,000 fighters, it turned out that Germany still had such a terrifying strength, which made Eisenhower begin to calm down in anger.

"Report, urgency message...... Nian ......"

"General Patton called, they were surrounded by more than two million German troops, and now the German army is already attacking the border between Belgium and France, the German army's intention is to completely encircle the 550,000 Allied troops in Belgium and the Netherlands, General Patton asked the commander-in-chief for immediate reinforcements."

"Ahh Go to the operational command room......"

It is impossible for Eisenhower to see death without help, and the tradition of the US military is also like this, even if only one soldier is trapped in the rear of the enemy, he will send rescue troops, not to mention that this is a 550,000-strong army, no matter how much Eisenhower wants to retreat, it is impossible, which is contrary to the tradition of the US military not to abandon its comrades and troops.

After Eisenhower's careful deliberation and his telegram communication with Roosevelt and Churchill, everyone agreed that every effort must be made to save the besieged 550,000 Allied troops, and as for the lost planes, the United States will immediately transfer them from the country by sea, and the United States will take out more than 3,000 planes of various types in its inventory at one time, and at the same time place orders for domestic factories, so that there will be no problem in producing 5,000 planes a month.

This is the comprehensive national strength, Germany can not be compared in any way, the comprehensive national strength of Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union is almost inexhaustible, inexhaustible, how can Germany's little territory and human resources fight with these three countries for a long time, can only establish absolute strategic superiority in an extreme period of time, and then force Britain and the United States to negotiate.
