Chapter 705: Bombing (1)

Hellfire, a name that seems to have been used up in later generations, at least as far as Yan Shao knows, there will be American air-to-ground missiles in later generations, stand-alone games and monster NPCs in online games or something―――――― by the way, I heard that there is a kind of mouse pad that is also called this name?

Although this name has been used rotten in later generations, this name also contains Yan Shao's ardent expectations for this kind of bomber...

Incidentally, the Hellfire was just the code name for this bomber, and its real designation was H-19, as it was only finalized in '19.

And this first bomber in service with the army aviation unit can also be called the essence of China's aviation industry. After all, even the first heavy bomber produced by the Russians had a payload of only 600 kilograms, and even in the case of overloading, it was only 7 or 800 kilograms.

As for the H-19, it is not overloaded, and the bomb load can also reach 1 ton, and 1.2 tons is almost easy if it is overloaded. If you reduce the crew of three machine guns, which are not particularly necessary, you can even increase the payload to the point of 1.5 tons, and if you reduce the fuel in the mailbox or something...

2 tons, not necessarily impossible.

Of course, in that case, the range of the bomber will definitely be affected, but if it is a short-range bombing, this is not much of a problem.

And it is precisely because of this proud performance that the pilots of the Army Aviation Force are full of superiority over those Russians.

Seriously, the Wehrmacht during this period. The Army has the most contact with France, after all, most of the young generals in the Wehrmacht have studied in France, and many have even served in foreign legions. Naturally, the French influence is very deep.

And then there's Germany.

It is not surprising who called the German Army the best in the world, such a powerful army was naturally the object of study for the Wehrmacht at that time.

As for the navy, unlike the Franco-German army, the navy is simple. It's the UK, of course, technically more or less learned from Germany

But whether it's the army or the navy. Because of their respective heritages, they all have a natural sense of superiority over Russia. After all, Russia in this era has a feeling of being a 'barbarian' in the eyes of other countries. In addition, Russia's performance in the European war was really bad, and now Russia is almost torn apart. It's no surprise that those pilots' watches xiΓ n ...

Although they flew in the sky. But at present, after all, there is no separate air force, as a branch of the army subordinate, their thinking will naturally be the same as the army―――――― in addition, after the appearance of bombers, Yan Shao also once thought about whether to set up a separate air force, after all, after having bombers, the status of the aviation force is no longer as insignificant as in the past, and can even play a vital role.

Of course. To be honest, Russia is really not as 'barbaric' as it seems. After all, there are still some good things about Russian culture, especially in terms of songs, such as military songs. Naturally, that was almost a decade or even twenty years later...

――――――――――――――――――――

Although the pilots of the army aviation looked very disdainful of those people in the white army, the people of the white army knew very well that these orientals were all their lifesavers, so even if the attitude of the army aviation was not very polite, the officers led by them still did not get angry, but sent some good wine from their private collection with a shy face.

Let's say, vodka...

Basically, anyone who has been here knows very well how cold the winter is in Russia, and these pilots have lived in the Urals for a while, so they have naturally experienced a similar winter.

And for Russians, and indeed many northerners, one of the best ways to warm up is to drink alcohol, spirits. Generally speaking, it is difficult for soldiers not to drink, especially in such a cold climate, and it is precisely because of this that in the Ural Military District, the sales of spirits have always been very good, and as the most famous alcohol in Russia, vodka, these pilots are obviously no strangers ...

In this group of pilots, there are a few people who like this spirit very much.

It has to be said that these Russian officers did not waste their knowledge, but they did get some good things, at least the few bottles of vodka they brought were definitely good wine.

Therefore, after seeing these bottles of wine, several army aviation officers, who were still a little impatient, became strangely kinder.

And this can be regarded as opening the door to communication between the two sides...

"If you have any questions, you can ask..."Pouring such a small cup for each other, Wang Yuqing, the army aviation officer led by him, said with a smile.

When I first got off the plane, I may not have a good face, but since I have been on the wine table, I will naturally be...

"That..."After looking at the other party's face and thinking that there was no problem, Proyev asked softly. I just want to ask, why didn't your army show its banner? If your army can show its banner to support us, I believe that those bandit troops on the outskirts of Ufa will also be much more fearful..."

"Yes," moved a small bench and sat next to Proyev, his companion whispered. At the moment, your army is still waiting here for fuel, waiting for follow-up assistance, but at the moment Ufa is fighting fiercely on all fronts, at this time, if your army can open its banner and give a warning to the bandit army, even if your army can't make any actual moves at the airport at the moment, it can still give strong support to the Ufa side..."

Hearing Proyev and them ask this question, Wang Yuqing, who was holding the wine glass in his hand, frowned slightly, and only spoke after half a sound. "Is this the ......... To be honest, I don't know how the country thinks about it, I can only say that what the country orders, we can only do, but before we came, the superiors had already instructed that if we were captured by Soviet Russia, we would tell Soviet Russia that we were all retired pilots from the Wehrmacht, just mercenaries, and that every act had nothing to do with the Chinese government..."

Speaking of this, Wang Yuqing and his companion glanced at each other.

When it first started. They still don't quite understand what the government means, after all, they have already intervened in the war, and they are still doing something in secret. But when I came here. They more or less reacted.

Maybe...

Maybe it's because the government doesn't plan to turn the other cheek with Soviet Russia, so they will make this kind of behavior to cover their ears and steal the bell...

In this case, even if China has dealt a substantial blow to Soviet Russia, at least it will still be able to pass on face. This behavior is probably no different from the behavior of the Soviet Air Force in the Korean War in the later generations.

Of course, their opponents are not Americans, but the actual results are good. At least knowing that the pilots were all Russians. Instead of making a statement, the US government tried to hide the truth for Soviet Russia.

Because the United States is also well aware that this truth is made public if it is made public. This is not necessarily good for the United States.

The same is true for now...

On the other hand, Proyev and they were not stupid after all, and they quickly understood the meaning of Wang Yuqing's words.

Obviously, China has sent troops to help. But in fact, they were not willing to turn against Soviet Russia. Perhaps this confirms the speculations of some within the White Army. That is, China has always felt that the survival of Soviet Russia is more beneficial to China than the White Army...

Thinking of this, Proyev's faces were a little heavy, but Wang Yuqing and the others on the other side were drinking happily and didn't pay any attention to this qiΔ“.

――――――――――――――――――――

The bomber group had just arrived, and it was impossible for them to immediately carry out a combat mission, so after arriving at the airport, Wang Yuqing and the others did not leave immediately. Instead, a lot of preparation was done at the airport first.

For example, with more professional experience, he directed the Russians to re-expand the airfield. At the same time, several conning towers were built near the airport. At the same time, there are several important things―――――― oil depots, ammunition depots, and warehouses for repairs.

It can be said that without these three things, the bomber group that had just arrived at the airfield would not have been able to move at all.

And the current Russian government alone is obviously unable to meet Wang Yuqing's needs.

You know, it's not just their bomber group that came over this time, there are two other positions, and there is also a fighter group, which is specially used for escort.

It is not surprising, after all, at this time, Soviet Russia has more than 60 aviation detachments, if a few are transferred over, specifically for the bomber group of the army aviation, then these essences of China's aviation industry will suffer―――――― yes, they are indeed equipped with a large number of machine guns on each aircraft, but in fact, in air combat, bombers are still inferior to fighters after all, otherwise, what do you want fighters for, it is better to use them all as bombers.

And you can carry out bombing missions, and you can also carry out air combat missions ...

Having said that, later generations really got it according to this idea, and the last thing they got was the 'fighter-bomber'. A military aircraft that can be used both as a fighter and as a bomber.

It's just that this kind of aircraft was gradually eliminated later, because later, whether it was a light fighter or a heavy fighter, it usually had some ground bombing functions, which belonged to one aircraft with multiple types and was multi-functional, which was equivalent to robbing them of the deal. On the other hand, the fighter-bomber, after all, is still too modest, and it is inevitable that it will be eliminated...

This time, in order to aid Kolchak, Cai Ye sent all the elite of the army aviation in the military region, especially the bombers, which can almost be called pouring out―――――― at this time the H-19 is not very proficient in equipment, after all, this type of bomber is not particularly mature in Yan Shao's eyes, only taking into account the special environment of the Ural Military District and Yekaterinburg, so Cai Ye was equipped with more than 100 planes, and this time, Cai Ye sent out more than 100 planes...

――――――――――――――――――――

Although the Russian government could not meet Wang Yuqing's needs, fortunately, Cai Ye had not counted on them, so just four or five days after they had arrived at the airport, a large number of trucks appeared in the airport's field of vision.

The trucks were loaded with ammunition, fuel, and replacement parts for the bomber formations.

But...

Somewhat intriguing, despite the soldiers driving the truck. All of them look like yellow people, but the military uniforms they wear and the paint of the trucks are all in the style of the Russian army...

See this scene. Both Proyev and Wang Yuqing were slightly stunned. But soon they understood the intentions behind this...

Obviously, the Chinese government is not willing to let Soviet Russia know that it is involved in this matter, at least, it still wants to maintain the face, so it is not surprising that it will do this kind of thing to cover up its ears and steal the bell, after all, it is in this land. I don't know how many people in Soviet Russia there are, if you don't do a little disguise, I'm afraid that in the blink of an eye, Soviet Russia will get relevant information.

In Yekaterinburg, Cai Ye was even convinced. The Soviet Union and Russia already knew the relevant information, but it was only because of many concerns, so it did not take action.

But...

"As long as they're not willing to tear their faces, that's fine..."

So to speak. Cai Ye looked out the window of the office.

Stayed here for a long time. Cai Yi has become more and more fond of the style of this city―――――― it would be better if the fort not far from the headquarters could always block the sunlight.

"Maybe I should think about it, and there's an office problem..."

Although Cai Ye is not the kind of person who investigates the details of life, if he can, he still hopes that his office can be exposed to more sunlight...

Almost as Cai Ye was considering changing offices, in Beijing, Yan Shao was also asking Katerina's question.

"Luo Wenying's safety, there won't be any problems..."

"Don't worry. No..."Seeing that Yan Shao was a little nervous about Luo Wenying's safety, the corners of Katerina's mouth curled slightly. After getting along for a long time, Caterina deeply understood that Yan Shao was a standard heterosexual. So I didn't pay much attention to this nervousness. "Director Luo has been active in Moscow for so long, if he can't even figure out some way out, then he deserves to die..."

Although the words are cold, they are also true.

Listening to Katerina's words, Yan Shao smiled bitterly.

Of course, Yan Shao knew that what Katerina said was the truth, after all, as the director of the Special Affairs Bureau, if he had been active in Moscow for so long and had not been able to move out of a retreat, then even if he died, he would not be able to complain about others, not to mention that it was already a dangerous job in Moscow.

It's just that Luo Wenying has followed him for many years after all, and he is his old subordinate, and he is a person who misses his old feelings, so he is naturally very worried about Luo Wenying's current situation.

You must know that in order to help Kolchak retreat this time, Cai Ye used more than 100 bombers and the same number of fighters, and in the face of this kind of air attack, what kind of reaction Soviet Russia would make, this is something that no one can predict.

If it's a total break...

The first to be used for surgery was definitely Luo Wenying and them.

Of course, at present, Soviet Russia's needs for China are definitely much higher than China's needs for Soviet Russia. However, Yan Shao did not dare to use common sense to predict such an organization as Soviet Russia, so I am afraid that even God does not know what the final result will be.

And what Yan Shao can do right now is to inform Luo Wenying of the situation in advance and let him prepare as soon as possible, instead of not doing anything yet, it has already been solved by Soviet Russia...

――――――――――――――――――――

After a long period of preparation, the fuel, ammunition and other supplies for the army aviation have been unlucky, on the other hand, those pilots who are also part-time pilots have also done a good job of inspecting and maintaining their aircraft, and it seems that they are all ready.

It's just Kolchak that is missing...

This time, their task was very simple, that is, to bomb the pursuing Soviet Russia indiscriminately during the withdrawal of Kolchak's troops from Ufa, lest they bite Kolchak tightly and make it impossible for him to withdraw into the Urals...

On the other hand, looking at the telegram that had just come from Beijing, Luo Wenying's face also showed a trace of solemnity.

Although there were many contradictions between China and Soviet Russia in the past, if this incident came out......... No one knows what the final reaction of Soviet Russia will be, maybe a total rupture ...

However, he could not complain about the domestic decision, after all, the current financial pressure on the government was very high, and he had heard a little about Kolchak's gold. If such a large amount of gold can be obtained, for the national government, I dare not say that it can solve the government's deficit problem, or at least alleviate some ...

After a long period of preparation, those Russians who were willing to chase Kolchak, under the leadership of a small number of white troops and Kolchak, gradually left the capital of the former Russian Provisional Government, Ufa, which had begun to be invaded by the war...

And in the middle of the crowd is a mysterious train, which is filled with loaded white soldiers...

On the other hand, it seemed that Kolchak's movements were perceived, and the Soviet offensive on the outskirts of Ufa suddenly became fierce. It's just that under the stubborn resistance of the White Army, it is difficult to make any progress...

As a last resort, the generals who commanded the Soviet army had no choice but to ask for reinforcements from the rear, so that when they dealt with the White Army in Ufa, the new reinforcements could bypass the White Army in Ufa and directly intercept the evacuated Kolchak and his party...

At the same time, after a series of preparations, the young pilots of the army aviation cluster located at the four airfields around Ufa boarded their beloved cars and took off from the airfields one by one under the command of the control towers...

Their destination is Ufa... (To be continued......)
