Daming 1805

In May of the third year of Ankang, a small town next to a corner in the lower reaches of the Magdalena River was under military control by the Xintianfu Huangzhuang Army.

A small number of armed immigrants from the Ming Dynasty were hired to repair the wharf and build a cement concrete "square".

All other ethnic groups were sent to Panama to repair the Canal.

Because it involved military missions and confidential testing projects, the Ming army did not explain to the workers what it was doing.

So the Ming immigrants who worked here called it "the square".

It is also inconvenient for the army to casually talk about repairing the airport, so they simply followed the workers and called this place a square.

So the town's name became Square Town.

As for the original name, the people who originally lived here seem to call it Barrancabermeja.

This name is too convoluted for Daming people.

Under normal circumstances, if there is no popular code name or official name for the final Ming name of such a place, one or two syllables will be taken and transliterated into Chinese characters for use.

Rebels like Bolivar and Martin Sun are also unable to build large factories by themselves.

The weapons in their hands were basically obtained from the Spanish and Portuguese colonial armies.

In the end, a total of [-] aircraft were prepared at the two airfields.

But as time passed, Bolivar and his subordinates slowly became restless again.

They have no way to communicate with the outside world, and there are no coal mines in the area.

Half of the wall of the turret collapsed, and three of the companions and officers inside ran out, and were paralyzed not far away just like myself, panting.

In the next month, a large number of inland ships began to travel up the Cement River to Square Town.

Because Ming's troops stopped attacking.

In the key town that guards the uphill road on both sides of the canyon where Boliwa City is located, the guards have the highest level of security.

Not far away, there were a few people who seemed to be human too, but lay motionless on the ground, not sure if they were dead or alive.

Now 160 attack aircraft, [-] fighter jets, and [-] aircraft were mixed and divided into two parts.

These aircraft include existing aircraft transferred from other airports, as well as assembled products trial-produced by the new Tianfu Daming Aviation Factory.

Bolivar thought afterwards that the condition was too simple.

However, the functional design has been updated three times, and three engines have been replaced simultaneously.

Twenty twin-engine fighter jets were also accompanied by one-ton bombs.

"For example, mobilizing more artillery, and even building a dedicated railway...

Let yourself live and this war is over.

As a result, this conventional fire extinguishing method was completely useless, and the fire on my body continued to burn without being affected at all.

There is also a twin-row inline twelve-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that is also being tested.

Two years ago, the latest fighter Zhu Jingyuan saw used a single-row nine-cylinder radial [-]-horsepower engine.

There are soldiers and officers running around, and people who are sitting or lying down.

As long as it is a normal decision maker, it should not reject this condition.

And these few sounds were just the beginning, successive explosions sounded from far and near.

They have a genuine fear of this flying machine.

The twin-engine fighters were responsible for covering the bombers.

At the same time, the name of the river, the Magdalena River, is also confusing.

They have not maintained their rule here for long, and they do not have enough experience to build a large number of stone houses.

In the hazy vision of severe pain and heat, the soldiers found that the entire barracks had turned into a sea of ​​flames.

"what……"

Bolivar said in disbelief:
"You mean, Daming may have rejected our conditions?
"Our conditions are low enough, why should they refuse?"

Forty single-engine fighter jets are on the road with [-] kilograms of bombs mounted.

With the substantial increase in speed and the synchronous reduction in fuel consumption, the maximum range has also exceeded [-] kilometers, and the combat radius has reached [-] kilometers at the same time.

If a code name that everyone is used to is formed, then the original name will be completely useless.

Bolivar and his subordinates were discussing, and a communications soldier ran into the meeting room quickly:
"Your Majesty, the barracks on both sides of the canyon entrance have been attacked, and they are flying machines."

"Is it Da Ming's attack? It can only be Da Ming's attack, but why? Why!"

In June, planes began to come over and land on the square.

Bolivar's expression was extremely unbelievable, and he turned to look at his companions and subordinates around him.

In the past month, the atmosphere in Bolivar City was quite relaxed.

So the soldiers in the barracks ran into the yard when they heard the explosion.

The industrial foundation of Xintianfu in Nanyinzhou was not good, and the industrial foundation of the Spanish and Portuguese colonies was even worse.

The types of fighter jets currently used by the Army and Navy are still in the form that Zhu Jingyuan presided over the design.

The soldiers spread out on the ground looked up subconsciously and found that several planes had dropped several relatively large bombs.

Before the soldier understood what was happening, he was already on fire.

As a result, at this moment, there were a few more strange whistling sounds.

The update rate of the design version of the latest flying machine is calculated on a monthly basis.

Bolivar regretted it for a while.

After the power was increased to more than [-] horsepower, this airframe was already suitable for high-speed flight, and its maximum flight speed directly soared to [-] kilometers per hour.

The probability of being crushed in a house is far greater than the probability of lying down on an open field.

The bandit suppression troops were already planning to mobilize planes to deal with it, but Zhu Jingyuan's plan directly expanded the scale of the operation.

That was actually the latest incendiary bomb brought by a new plane from Ming Dynasty.

As for the people in the blockhouse, I don't know how many are left.

Daming currently produces, or even produced in the past, all kinds of small aircraft are basically gathered.

Among the veterans who returned to Bolivar City from other regions, many of them had seen Ming's planes.

Attacking Boliva City along the valley will be suppressed by the gun towers on the platform.

Relatively nimble fighter jets lead the way, and attack aircraft follow closely behind in formation.

Not long after the soldiers in charge of going to the barracks ran out of the gun tower, they heard ear-piercing whistles.

The twin-engine medium bomber, which has already started mass production, is the absolute main force of this bombing mission.

Including the officers in the gun tower, as well as the officers in the barracks below.

At the same time, the development of a double-row eighteen-cylinder radial engine has officially started.
It is estimated that the power will start directly at [-] horsepower, and it is even expected to exceed [-] horsepower.

Daming thought for too long.

The soldier turned over cautiously, panting heavily, and looked back at the gun tower where he was before.

Recently, cement and concrete materials have been transported here, so everyone simply called this river the Cement River.

However, in this battle, the enemy's air combat capabilities are almost nonexistent, so fighter jets are not the main force.

The soldiers lay on the ground, not daring to move, and waited for an unknown amount of time before the sound of the explosion finally subsided.

According to the observation of the cloud situation, tomorrow is expected to be a rare sunny day in the Medellin area.

A violent shock wave came, and the soldier fell directly to the ground.

Bolivar thumped in his heart, and stood up directly:

The momentum of the army's attack against the bandits was suppressed by these highland artillery towers.

Already replacing [-]-horsepower engines in batches.

There are not many people on the two terraces, but there are several towns in key locations.

Miranda shook her head:
"I can't think of a reason, but I can't think of a more credible possibility..."

In addition to the plane, there is also the napalm bomb that has just been successfully developed according to Zhu Jingyuan's request.

The main combat aircraft deployed in Square Town are small single-engine attack aircraft using the same engine.

Bolivar felt that the reason why Daming stopped attacking might be that the higher-ups were considering the conditions they proposed.

Bolivar resumed his clean and decent attire, sat in his seat, and discussed with Miranda and his staff.

The guards on duty in the gun tower immediately widened their eyes in horror when they saw the plane appearing.

The guard sounded the alarm in a panic, and at the same time dispatched someone to report to the officer.

After forming a fleet, they fly to the area where Bolivar City (Medellin) is located.

The soldier let out a heart-piercing scream, and instinctively rolled on the ground, trying to put out the fire on his body.

People who were bathed in flames were screaming and struggling everywhere.

Along the highlands on both sides of the canyon, attack in groups from west to east.

Fortunately, in the past, there were not many of these flying machines, and each time they appeared, there were at most a dozen or even a few.

If the infantry fires their guns collectively, or fires upwards with small-caliber artillery, it can also force the planes not to approach.

According to Combat Li Yuquan, if there is always enough ammunition and fuel supply, these planes are enough to completely wipe Bolivar City from the map.

Because I can't do anything with them, I can only be beaten passively on the ground and run away with my head in my arms.

Almost all the buildings have been bombed and more than half of them are now collapsed.

Enduring severe pain, the soldier jumped up and tried to find water to put out the fire.

Bolivar City is located in the canyon, and there are two flat platforms on the north and south sides of the canyon.

When being bombed by planes, you have to run outside the building. This is the survival experience of Yinzhou white ghosts and rogues.

As a result, the shock wave of the explosion this time was not violent, but it burst out a particularly raging flame.

In addition, under Miranda's suggestion, Bolivar cleverly used an ultimatum to propose negotiation conditions.

Build "squares" and "big sheds" here.

Eighty twin-engine medium bombers, each capable of carrying two tons of bombs.

"So... there is another possibility that Da Ming is planning a larger-scale attack...

In this mountain, it is difficult for infantry to break through the protection of these places when it is difficult to transport heavy weapons up.

Small, fast-flying fighter jets are also loaded with bombs, traveling alongside smaller, slower attack aircraft.

Most of the houses they live in are brick and tile structures, which are prone to collapse when bombed.

"Or did Martin Sun make a big mess?"

A Type 190 fighter similar to FW-[-]D and Sea Fury.

Bolivar built a barracks and a large number of gun towers, condescendingly protecting the canyon where Bolivar City is located.

In the city of Boliva.

If there are only a few planes, if you go directly to kill people running outside, it will be difficult to cause substantial casualties.

Combat planes on the two battlefields, whose distances were doubled, took off one after another at the same time.

160 attack aircraft, each capable of carrying [-] kilograms of bombs.

Then there was a deafening explosion.

On May 23, the third year of Ankang, all preparations for battle were ready.

A leg leaked from under the collapsed wall, seemingly hitting a person.

All the flames showed no sign of going out.

However, instead of going directly to Bolivar City, they first rushed to the terraces on the north sides of Bolivar City.

Miranda said with a rather serious expression:
"If there is a problem within Daming or even Xintianfu, they should be more active in promoting peace talks with us.

So after the combat command reported to Zhu Jingyuan, it officially launched the strategic bombing mission.

And the officers and soldiers also specifically reminded them not to go out and talk nonsense, so they continued to call Square Town.

At the same time, various large and medium-sized aircraft gathered at the coastal Cartagena City Airport.

"Could it be that there is something wrong with the mainland of Ming Dynasty... or the core area of ​​Xintianfu?

"Or... more planes?"

…………

After Zhu Jingyuan recovered his memory and designed a relatively reasonable aircraft, Daming's aviation industry has been developing rapidly.

Workers finally know what the squares are for, but it seems a bit late to change the name to Airport Town.

It took almost 10 minutes for the two fleets to enter the combat area.

The burning thing seemed to be some kind of fat, which stuck directly to his body.

The plane will not kill many people directly, it is mainly used to suppress the artillery positions.

However, fighter jets can also serve as bombing missions. In addition to the first mission, in order to prevent various possible situations, the proportion of fighter jets was not further reduced.

But this time, the guards didn't count all of a sudden, exactly how many planes appeared in the sky!

On the [-]th day of May, the third year of Ankang, the latest plane dispatched from Daming's local factory also arrived in Square Town.

Eight four-engine large bombers, each capable of carrying four tons of bombs.

Zhu Jingyuan was going to try strategic bombing, but the relevant military command and engineering personnel seemed to want to concentrate on trying all the aircraft.

The small aircraft airport is more than two hundred kilometers away from the battlefield.

The soldier trembled and looked back to other places, and found that the entire barracks had become a mess.

There is also a four-engine large bomber that has just completed the experiment, and was also sent to participate in the first actual combat verification.

The ratio of bombers to fighters is four to one, and the ratio of fighters can be lower depending on the enemy's air combat and air defense capabilities.

However, at this time, the enemy not only has no fighter jets, but also has weak ability to air, so only a very small proportion is arranged.

The soldiers immediately fell to the ground again, ready to face a new round of shock waves.

Because fixed-wing aircraft are not helicopters, it is difficult to point and kill people on the ground.

There was no news at all for half a month.

Miranda didn't answer Bolivar's question, because he couldn't figure it out at all, so he looked at the communication soldier:
"What about the details? How many planes did Ming come to? How's the situation at the scene? What's the loss?"

The communications soldier shook his head:
"I don't have any more details. Both places only reported that the Daming plane was spotted and attacked, and the communication was cut off.

"After that, no matter how you call, there is no response. Both sides are the same. The suspicion has been broken..."

Miranda and everyone else looked incredible.

The front line was not subjected to air raids before, but there was basically no complete communication interruption.
