When Andrei crawled out of the headquarters, while watching the Wehrmacht disguised as the Turkish Air Force leave, he also saw the mourning and devastation left behind by the bombing.

There was no time to count the losses of the troops after this bombardment, and at the moment Andrei was most fortunate for only two things. One is that the current Russian commanders do not pay much attention to defense, especially attacks that may come from the air, so the losses of almost every unit are large. In addition, the Army at this time was not very clear about how to reduce the casualties caused by air strikes in the field, especially the top brass in Moscow who actually decided what they wanted. So even if there will be such a big loss this time, one of the most important reasons is because Andrei and these commanders did not take any measures to deal with the air attack, but there is no need to worry about punishment from Moscow because of this—————— because those guys in Moscow do not understand at all, and naturally they do not understand Andrei's responsibility.

As for the second ...

Looking at the crater not far from the headquarters, as well as the wreckage and debris around the crater, while being annoyed, Andre also felt a little happy in his heart.

If the bomb is a little closer to the command just now, I am afraid that the entire command will be collapsed, or more troublesome, the people in the command will be directly shocked to death by the explosion of the bomb—————— this is not an impossible thing, you must know that although the bomb does not have a very high speed like an artillery shell, but because of the different ways of delivery, the bomb does not need a solid shell like a shell, nor does it need to propel or the like. The entire bomb can be used to contain explosives.

In war, the damage caused by a single 155mm shell is enormous. And a hundred-kilogram aerial bomb. It is definitely much more powerful than a 155mm caliber shell.

It is conceivable that if the bomb had been closer. Andrei may not be able to save his life.

——————————————————————————

After the bomber group left, the devastation on the ground was a true portrayal of the Russian position.

On the positions of the Russian army, which were originally quite neat, I don't know how many deep craters appeared. Many of the trenches dug by Russian soldiers have all but disappeared, replaced by craters blown up by aerial bombs. At the same time, a large amount of wreckage appeared around the crater.

Some are ordinary rifles, some are machine guns, and some are ......... Human...

This bombing brought a big psychological blow to the Russian army, after all, in the bombing just now, they can almost say that they did not bring much damage to the aircraft group in the sky. But what about themselves. The price paid can be described as enormous.

It is precisely because of this relationship that although the casualties of the Russian army were very large, the Russian soldiers, who were originally preparing to attack the Turkish positions again, stopped their operations without hurting the roots.

The most important thing for them at the moment was not to attack the Turkish positions on the opposite side, but to rescue those who had been wounded or buried in the bombardment.

Besides...

——————————————————————————

"Those damned Turks!"

In the headquarters of the Russian army, a large number of Russian generals, including Andrey, gathered together. The purpose was, of course, to discuss the bombing that had taken place not long ago, and one appeared to be in his 40s after the commanders of the various combat units had arrived at the headquarters. The general, who had a big beard on his face and a general's uniform on his body that looked stained with a lot of dust, said angrily.

While scolding, the general was still slapping his body, trying to clean the dust off his body.

It's just that there is too much dust on his body. He couldn't beat it cleanly, so after patting, he gave up.

It's not like he deliberately ran here to slap. It's a complete lack of time. After all, he was giving the order to treat the wounded when he received a call from the headquarters. Having completely no time to pack up my clothes, I had to run over.

In fact, at this moment, the other officers in the headquarters did not have the slightest opinion. One of the main reasons is because except for this soldier, the other soldiers are almost the same, and they all look disgraced, everyone is the same, so naturally there is no need for anyone to dislike whom.

On the other hand, after hearing the angry scolding of this general, the other generals also spoke.

However, while they were angrily cursing the Turks, they did not speak, and this time the chief of staff of the Russian army, Alechenev, spoke softly from the side.

"Is it really Turkish?!"

"Comrade Chief of Staff, what did you mean by what you just said?" Hearing Alechenev's words, Andrei, who had not spoken, hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

This time, Russia formed the troops going south in the style of the expeditionary force, and in the entire expeditionary force, the highest rank except for the commander of the expeditionary force was the chief of staff of the expeditionary force, Alechenev.

In other words, if Moscow has any instructions, intelligence, or orders, it is usually the first to get it, and the commander of the expeditionary force in front of him, must be the one in front of him.

Therefore, after hearing Alechenev's words, many people, including Andrei, thought that Alecheniv had received some instructions or information from the country.

However, looking at their appearance, Alechenev shook his head.

"Don't look at me with this, I don't get any information from the country. It's just that do you really think the Turks can do this kind of bombing like today? Saying this, Alechenev's expression was a little gloomy.

Because if the bombers are not Turkish, it means that other forces are involved in the war. This is not good news for either Soviet Russia or the expeditionary force, after all, the expeditionary force of Soviet Russia this time is only about 100,000 people, and the garrison of that force with ulterior motives in the Middle East has more than 100,000 people.

In terms of troops, the Russian army has absolutely no advantage. As for the equipment? In fact, many of the weapons and equipment in Soviet Russia were donated by the Wehrmacht. Alechnev, who was the chief of staff of the winning lottery, of course, could not have known. But this did not affect Alechnianv's awareness of the combat capabilities of the Wehrmacht.

And in the case that there is no superiority in troops and weapons and equipment, if Russia really has any advantages. That's the actual combat experience of soldiers.

Unlike other Russian troops that were just like ordinary militias, the expeditionary force led by Alecheniv this time was almost entirely the main force of the Russian army. The vast majority of these officers and soldiers joined the Russian Red Army after the October Revolution. Only a very small number of soldiers who were responsible for filling the vacancies were of workers' and peasants' background, so their combat effectiveness was extremely good.

And these soldiers had just ended the Russian Civil War, and they had won a great victory in it. Although some time has passed since the civil war, the actual combat experience of these units is not comparable to that of the Wehrmacht, which has always been fighting bandits in the Middle East.

After all, the scale is basically a guerrilla resistance group, and it is impossible to confront the Wehrmacht head-on. Therefore, the Middle East Defense Forces do have a lot of experience in suppressing bandits, but in terms of frontal combat, the experience is inevitably somewhat inadequate.

And this is exactly what the Russian army is good at.

But Russia is still a little further away from here. And there are no industrial facilities here. Therefore, if the Russian army wants to obtain supplies, especially weapons and ammunition, it can only wait until the transport troops take the long route to deliver the ammunition to the Russian army.

In contrast, the F-FDTL is significantly stronger.

In the case of three to one, no matter how you think about it, it is obvious that the Wehrmacht has a better chance of winning—————— of course, there is also the factor of morale, but the morale of the Russian army that has just been bombed will obviously not be much stronger.

And that's just one bombing by the IDF, if a few more times. Fear...

The consequences are unpredictable!

——————————————————————————

Hearing Alechenev's words, everyone else suddenly had a sudden feeling.

"That's right, the Turks were suddenly able to dispatch such a large aviation force, and there was something really wrong with it. After all, Turkish industry simply cannot make so many planes ...", said so. Another Russian general suddenly glanced at his colleagues around him. "Chinese?"

"Chinese..." Hearing these three words, the headquarters suddenly fell silent.

At the moment, there is no doubt about it. The most likely to be suspected are the Chinese, and the most likely to do so are the Chinese.

And...

"If the Turks really have such strength. So why didn't the Turks take it out when we broke through before, but only took out the aviation at this time? It's so weird..."

"It's just that it's not certain yet. Are those planes Chinese, or did the Chinese sell those planes to the Turks and let the Turks fly them ...

Hearing Alecheniv's words, Vladimir, the commander of the Russian army, who had been silent, suddenly spoke. "Not so long ago, our anti-aircraft fire should have shot down some planes, right? Did any troops be sent to look for it? ”

Hearing Vladimir's words, the other Russian generals were shocked, because this was indeed a good solution. And just now it is true that some planes were shot down, and if these planes can be found, and the pilots inside can be found, then it is natural to be able to distinguish whether these planes were sold by the Chinese to the Turks, or the result of the Chinese after a makeover ...

However, hearing Vladimir's words, a Russian officer who had not spoken all this time said in silence. "I'm sorry, but our air defense forces are still too inexperienced in this area, so they didn't shoot down many Chinese planes. And most of the downed planes crashed near the Turks, and since it was the time of the bombing, there was no way for us to send a search force over, and when the bombing was over, the recovered planes were believed to have been..."At this point, after a moment of silence, the officer added again. "In addition, after some of the planes were shot down, soldiers discovered that pilots had jumped out of those planes."

"Parachute?" Hearing this, Vladimir on the side frowned.

"That's right!"

——————————————————————————

After all, the Russians are not dirt buns, and of course they can't be unaware of the parachute. After all, parachutes have a long history. The earliest words can even be traced back to the time of Shun.

This Shun. It's the one of the Five Emperors.

Sima Qian wrote in his writings: "The Blind Man still wants to kill him, so that Shun is smeared." He set fire to the house from below. Shun Nai went down with two hats, and went, so that he would not die. The story he recounts is that in ancient times, there was a man named Shun, who once went up to the top of the granary, and Shun lit a fire from below, and Shun jumped from above with two hats and was not burned to death. This is the earliest record of the application of the principle of parachutes.

Legend has it that it was around 1306 AD. During the enthronement ceremony of one of the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty, such a program was performed in the court. Acrobats use giant paper umbrellas to leap down from high walls. Due to the use of the principle of air resistance, the artist landed safely and soundly, which can be said to be the earliest practice of skydiving.

The 1944 Japanese book "Falling Umbrella" describes this incident, in which it says: "French missionaries returning from Peking found the following documents: the large paper umbrella made by an acrobat during the emperor's accession ceremony in 1306. Jump off the high wall and show it to the minister. ”

In the Middle Ages, there were also records of parachute-like tools, and in 1178 there was a record of an Islamist jumping from a tower, but the unfortunate man was seriously injured and died. Year 1485. Leonardo da Vinci sketched a parachute in Milan and designed the initial image of the parachute.

In the thirties of the 18th century, with the advent of balloons. In order to ensure the safety of people in the air, parachutes on the acrobatic field began to enter the aviation field. After the advent of the aircraft. In order to save the lives of the flight personnel in the event of a plane crash, the parachute has been further improved. In 1911, a parachute appeared that could fold and wrap the parachute and place it in the engine room, suitable for use by flight personnel, and this kind of parachute began to be equipped with bomber crews in 1914.

Yan Shao can be said to be the person who attaches the most importance to the Air Force in this era, after all, what the Air Force is in later generations, I am afraid that no one in this era knows better than Yan Shao. It is precisely because of this relationship that China now has one of the largest air forces in the world, and the development of the air force is also very much in line with the 'historical process'.

Unlike later generations, Germany and Soviet Russia, for one reason or another, did not think at all during World War II of developing bombers capable of directly bombing enemy territory—————— even if they had such technology.

Only Britain and the United States built a considerable number of long-range bombers, such as the American B-17, B-24 and the very famous B-29, as well as the British Lancaster bombers, and so on.

It is conceivable that if Germany at that time had a considerable number of strategic bombers, it would have been able to bomb Soviet Russian industry near the Ural Mountains. As a result, it is difficult to say whether the Russians will be able to hold out.

There was also the United Kingdom, although there were already missiles like the V-2 at that time, but the hit rate of this thing was too low, so although it was an epoch-making product, its practical value was not high. But if a considerable number of strategic bombers can be equipped, then it is not impossible to sink even the British Isles—————— well, this seems to be an exaggeration.

But if the British Isles can be razed to the ground, then at least some things will change.

——————————————————————————

In any case, it is precisely because he understands the role of the Air Force that Yan Shao deliberately plans the key development models for the Air Force. For example, the most important fighter in air combat. And fighters are divided into two kinds, one is ordinary, advocating maneuver and firepower, and the other is high-altitude and high-speed—————— of course, even if it is high in this era, it may not be able to go anywhere, but it is just a kind of pre-research on interceptors, so that when the enemy's strategic bombers and high-altitude reconnaissance planes are put into service, the national defense air force can immediately come up with interceptors that are more powerful than the other side.

Let's use an analogy, why did Russia in later generations develop interceptors like the MiG-25.

One of the reasons was that the United States was developing a more powerful bomber at that time, so the Russians had to develop an interceptor. But the other, but also the most important, reason is that the U-2.

The U-2 name must be known. However, this kind of high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, which had been in service since the 50s, was a kind of aircraft that brought them the greatest humiliation for the Russians at that time. Because at that time, there were hardly any Russian planes capable of threatening such reconnaissance aircraft. It wasn't until 1960 that the Russians shot down a surface-to-air missile.

So far. The Americans reduced the U-2's reconnaissance of Russia, but this does not mean that the reconnaissance has stopped, it has only decreased, and when the interview with the SR-71 is more intensified, it will naturally be hehe.

However, on the other hand, in the period when the U-2 was at its most unscrupulous, if the Russians had known early on that the Americans would develop such a high-altitude reconnaissance plane, and had developed the MiG-25 or an interceptor with similar performance, would the U-2 still be so rampant?

Obviously impossible!

It's just Russia of that period. It is completely impossible to know that this kind of thing happened, but Yan Shao is different, Yan Shao knows very well that high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft are not a rare thing in later generations. If it wants to prevent the Empire from spying on itself, then China cannot do without it. Of course, reconnaissance aircraft are similar.

Therefore, Yan Shao set up a project for a high-altitude and high-speed interceptor or reconnaissance plane as early as possible, so that even if there were really enemy reconnaissance planes coming over in the future. China, which has long been at the forefront of the world, can also turn China into a black hole, so that all hostile enemy aircraft will not return!

Anyway, for reconnaissance aircraft, the biggest weapon is high altitude and high speed. Let the opponent not be able to catch himself, and the actual combat performance is actually poor. And as long as there is an interceptor that can reach the same distance as it, then the other side can almost be said to be a lamb to the slaughter.

Of course, you can also say that there were not so strong reconnaissance aircraft in this era. If it does, it will be more than 30 years from now. But in addition to reconnaissance aircraft, such interceptors can also be used against enemy bombers.

Think of Germany and Japan in later generations. If they had a fighter that could threaten the B-29, would they have been bombed so badly?

In the event of a conflict with an enemy country in the future. Then, if the enemy country has a bomber similar to the B-29, the interceptor of the Wehrmacht Air Force can easily deal with the enemy's strategic bomber—————— considering that the opponent's fighter may not be able to fly so high. These interceptors are almost unsafe.

This is the bloody lesson, so the importance of developing an interceptor is inevitable.

It is precisely because of this relationship that when developing this kind of aircraft, Yan Shao has always put high-altitude and high-speed and high firepower in the first place, compared with it, the maneuverability emphasized by ordinary fighters has not been emphasized in this kind of aircraft—————— it is high-altitude and high-speed, and it is too difficult to have high maneuverability, think about the MiG-25 of later generations, it is almost a straight flight.

Naturally, this will also cause a certain amount of waste of resources, but considering China's relatively abundant finances during this period, Yan Shao can proudly say that he wasted it.

——————————————————————————

In addition to fighters and interceptors, there are reconnaissance aircraft.

In this era when there are no satellites or other reconnaissance systems, the so-called reconnaissance means are actually just those kinds, and the reconnaissance plane is definitely the most effective one.

Imagine how invincible it would have been if China had developed the U-2 a few years earlier than the United States and the SR-71 a few years earlier than the United States. And this is not impossible, provided that Yan Shao can occupy a good position in this era of rapid development of aviation technology.

And what Yan Shao is doing right now is such a thing...

In addition to reconnaissance aircraft, there are many other projects, such as bombers.

Bombers are mainly divided into four categories, one is the ordinary light bomber, which is mainly used for ordinary front-line support, and then there is the long-range bomber, which is mainly used for strategic bombing, that is, to bomb the enemy's cities and industrial bases, and of course, to strike at ground forces in peacetime.

In addition, there are dive bombers, which pose a great threat to the ground. As well as attack aircraft, which are also used to position enemy ground forces. Most of these aircraft belong to the army aviation, after all, the air force is mainly used for strategic offensive and territorial air defense. Like a general front-line ground support mission, this kind of can be completely handed over to the army aviation—————— after all, the helicopter technology of this era has not yet been put into practical use...

Then there is the transport aircraft, which is also a key development.

After all, there are too many uses for transport aircraft in later generations, not only for loading, but also for temporary bombers, and for paratroopers. In addition, it can be converted into an AWACS aircraft, an anti-submarine aircraft, a gunboat ...

It can be said that it is very versatile, and when it comes to rapid response, it is possible to transport troops to their destination in a very short time with a large transport aircraft. If equipped with a sufficiently large transport aircraft, it is possible to transport even a certain number of armored vehicles and tanks and the like ...

One can imagine how useful this kind of weaponry is.

And these, with the support of Yan Shao, are almost all developing rapidly. It can even be said that after years of development and huge investment by the national government, China has become a member of the first echelon of aviation technology, and it is still the first one...

————————————————————————————

Although the Russians do not have evidence that the bombers were piloted by Chinese, there are still some Russians who think that it is very likely that China sold those planes to the Turks, and then the Turks flew them—————— of course, this also runs into a problem, that is, where did the Turks get so many pilots?

After all, this is not an infantry, although it is relatively simple to fly an aircraft in this era. But not everyone has the ability to fly an airplane...

In any case, the Russians have reached a consensus on at least one thing, that is, there must be Chinese behind this matter.

At the same time, Vladimir also believes that since the Chinese can come once, then naturally they can also come a second, third or fourth time. So while ordering the troops to strengthen their air defense capabilities on the spot, the Russians also sent a telegram to Moscow, describing the situation in detail, and hoping that Moscow would also send aviation units to support it...

Vladimir was not mistaken, and the next day, the Wehrmacht again bombed the positions of the Russian troops. Although the losses of the Russian army were much smaller than the day before, after some preparation this time, they still suffered heavy losses.

Naturally, the Russian government did not refuse the demands of the front-line troops, but while agreeing to them, the Russian government also issued the strongest protest against the Nationalist government!

In the face of the protests of the Russians, the Communist government continued to bomb the bombers while quietly transferring these bombers to the Turks. Create the feeling that these bombers were sold to the Turks by the Commune government, and that the Turks were the ones who flew them.

Naturally, the problem of pilots in this process must be solved, but although Turkey does not have it, does the United Kingdom and the United States have it~ (To be continued......
