The paratroopers and aviation were commanded by Kesselring. The airborne landing was supported by 900 transport planes commanded by Lieutenant General Gabrinz of the 5th Air Division and 250 B-29s under the personal command of Kesselring, the B-29 could be used for bombing and airborne landing, which was arranged by Kesselring himself, and the vast majority of the 5th Air Force was Junker-52 transport aircraft, as well as a small number of Junker-90 and Folk-200 large transport aircraft, which were responsible for transporting airborne troops. The airports of Stader, Schleswig and Euttesen in northern Germany are the departure airports for the parachutes.

November 9, 1939, 5 a.m.; At 30 minutes, there was only a halo of light below the horizon in the sky, reflecting the early morning sky as a white cloud with egg yolk on the edge.

At the general headquarters of the Weisel exercise, Zhang Jun was leisurely drinking Longjing tea, while looking at the huge battle deduction map, the campaign plan was issued, and how to implement it, Zhang Jun did not plan to interfere, but when there was an unexpected situation in the battle situation, Zhang Jun needed to deal with it urgently. As for coordinating ammunition and fuel, these are completely the tasks of the operational staff officer, and Zhang Jun at this time can be a bodhisattva, and when he has time, he can find Rommel, who is comparing and drawing on the map, to gossip a few words.

Rommel didn't have Zhang Jun's leisurely state of mind, he came to the map early, and listened to the preparations reported by the troops.

The Air Force command was at Ystad Airport, and Kesselring was very busy listening to the reports of the various flight divisions:

"The 1st Division of the Aviation Division is ready."

"The 2nd Division of the Aviation Division is ready."

"The 3rd Division of the Aviation Division is ready."

Kesselring took the microphone and took a deep breath before shouting with a loud voice:

"All take off"

The German airborne troops launched airborne assaults at four airfields in Denmark and Norway in three routes at the same time, and the first German air commando flew directly to the military and civilian airfields on both sides of Aalborg, Denmark and the Waldingburg Bridge.

At 5:30 a.m., 300 Junkers transport planes of the 1st Aviation Division (the code name of the transport aviation regiment transporting the Airborne Forces) took off from Yutaisen Airport and flew towards Denmark with the 1st Airborne Division.

After the 1st Air Division took off, it was quickly organized into three groups of 100 planes in the air, each with the first group flying to the military airfield on the east side of Aalborg, Denmark, and the second group flying to the civilian airfield on the west side of Aalborg, Denmark.

Milou was a regimental commander of the 1st Parachute Division, and their mission was to parachute into the military airfield in Aalborg, which, according to intelligence, had about a large group of Danish fighters and a battalion of Danish infantry guards, basically a regiment against a battalion.

The German paratroopers had the advantage of the surprise attack, and they were all the best of the best, with an extremely tenacious will to fight, and extremely high fighting qualities, while the Danish army, although it had a geographical advantage, was 6 in the morning; At 30 o'clock, I haven't gotten up yet! Because Denmark is geographically located in the north, the dawn time is a little late, so their soldiers are all at 7; 30 gather for morning exercises. They still got up, and the German paratroopers fell from the sky.

"Buzz...... Buzz ......"

The 100 transport planes of the first group flew into Denmark in a neat formation, and the altitude of these transport planes was about 6,000 meters, and if there was a large group, the ground could still hear the sound, and the buzzing roar would also cause a slight vibration in the air.

"Flying into Danish airspace, everyone should pay attention to immobilizing their bodies to prevent Danish shelling."

As soon as the first group flew into Danish airspace, it began to report that if Denmark discovered these invading German planes, it was likely to attack them with anti-aircraft guns on a large scale, and the planes would be jolted in the explosion of anti-aircraft shells, and if the occupants in the cabin did not fix their bodies, they were likely to be injured.

If a transport plane is unfortunately hit by an anti-aircraft gun, the German paratroopers inside will only be killed by the earth-flying plane, and if the volley explodes, it will disappear in an instant, if the transport plane is broken wings, the transport plane will be planted directly to the ground, and the paratroopers in the plane will fall into a pile in front of the fuselage, in this case there is no way to parachute, only when the plane can still glide, it is possible to jump out of the cabin, it seems that the paratroopers are also an extremely dangerous branch of the army.

It is very fortunate that the Danish side did not fire a cannon at the transport plane in the air, Milu and they secretly congratulated themselves on their luck in the plane, they did not know the real situation of the Danish army, the whole Denmark is only two infantry divisions of 30,000 people, and the capital Copenhagen alone used 15,000 people, in addition to the personnel at those border checkpoints, it can be said that the anti-aircraft guns of the entire country of Denmark will not exceed one battalion, and the German planes can basically fly over Denmark, and there is no need to worry too much about the Danish anti-aircraft guns.

At 6:30 a.m., the morning glow had already appeared in the east, and countless golden lights pierced the clouds on the edge of the sky, and it seemed that it was another day with good weather.

"Buzz...... Buzz ......"

Milou's group flew over the Aalborg military airfield, and the voice of the fleet commander was heard from the cabin:

"Warriors, we have flown over the target, and now we are preparing to parachute, 1, 2, 3...... 9. All begin to parachute, bless you, warriors of Germany, the Führer awaits the news of your victory. ”

"Toot toot toot...... Toot Toot ......"

The airborne lights in the cabin of the plane Milou were flying in began to flicker and a pleasant beep sound, and Milou, like the rest of the soldiers, checked his equipment once again to see if anything was missing.

Zhang Jun's requirements for these paratroopers are very special, requiring all paratroopers to carry the necessary paratroopers to parachute, of course, this requirement is not a big deal for German paratroopers, Milu they have also trained. Under normal circumstances, paratroopers are paratroopers parachuted separately from people and weapons, and after the paratroopers land, they go to find their own weapon airborne capsule, and then take the weapons before assembling.

It is very appropriate to parachute in the wilderness, and the chance of being injured by the paratroopers is also small, but this time it is parachuted into the enemy's airfield, and there is no time to find the airborne weapons cabin, and there is not much time to assemble, basically as soon as they land, they begin to attack the nearest target. In this way, the airport can be taken in the shortest time, with the most sudden and fierce attack, and with the least casualties. This time we parachuted into the enemy's airfield, obviously we can't be airborne separately with any weapons, and we must be airborne with our personal weapons in order to launch a surprise attack in the most effective way, and the few minutes after the airborne landing are extremely crucial, and every minute must not be delayed.

"Bump"

A pilot opened the door of the plane, and a cold wind poured into the cabin, and the cold wind raged in the cabin, but all the paratroopers did not have any fearful eyes, but were a little excited, these paratroopers were the first to participate in the actual battle.

"Start skydiving, quick, fast."

"Flutter...... Flutter ......"

Milu jumped out of the cabin for the third time, countless parachutes bloomed gorgeously in the air, and slowly landed to the ground, the paratroopers at this time were very vulnerable, and any gun could attack the paratroopers who were landing, just like a hunter hitting birds in the air, not to mention these "birdmen" in the air.

Most of the Danish soldiers at the Aalborg military airfield were still asleep, and there were only a few sentries on duty, who did not sound the alarm or shoot at the air, but only looked at the countless German paratroopers who landed one after another in amazement, dementedly, and like a fool. Those Danish sentinels, who just watched the German paratroopers land, without reacting, were completely stunned.

As soon as Milou landed, he beckoned his companions not far away:

"Quick, assemble quickly, attack nearby."

There were about twenty or thirty German paratroopers who landed around Milu, and at this time, it didn't matter whether it was a crew or not, whoever had a high rank would obey whomever commanded, and Milu's rank of lieutenant colonel was undoubtedly the highest. Milou saw that there were about twenty or thirty people gathered around him, and he was ready to attack, so he did not hesitate, and shouted behind him:

"Go, follow me, let's attack the tower."

And the sentry of the Danish tower just watched Milou rush to his side blankly, and several black holes pointed their guns at his head, and the sentry of the tower woke up like a dream, this is a war, this is not a drill, in this case, he had to raise his hand obediently.

The German lightning raid was very successful, and it can be said that it captured the Aalborg military airfield without firing a single shot, and the Danish defenders, who were sleeping soundly, were all captured in the bed. It's not that the German ** team is so elite that the Danish defenders don't dare to shoot, but the Danish army couldn't imagine that Germany would start a war so suddenly, and there was no notice from above, even if someone watched the German paratroopers land, they didn't dare to shoot and kill people rashly under the circumstances of this unclear situation. What if it's a drill? Isn't the man who fired the shot going to be court-martialed? Those Danish soldiers were not sure that this was the time of war, and they still would not shoot indiscriminately, and when they were still entangled and confused, the muzzles of the German paratroopers were already aimed at his head.

The 1st Parachute Regiment of Milou occupied the military airfield in Aalborg without blood, not a single shot was fired, not a single person was killed, only during the airborne landing several paratroopers hung on branches and were slightly wounded.

The German lightning attack was so sudden that not only the Danish soldiers did not react, but even the Danish top brass did not react to it.

Zhang Jun still continued to drink tea leisurely, when the hands of the clock were just pointing to 7, two telegrams were sent to Zhang Jun's hands, Zhang Jun quickly read the two telegrams, the content of which was very simple:

"The 1st Regiment of the 1st Division of the Paratroopers, completely occupied the Aalborg military airfield, the airfield facilities are intact."

"The 2nd Regiment of the 1st Division of the Paratroopers, completely occupied the Aalborg civilian airfield, the airfield facilities are intact."
