Comrade, your ingredients are too complicated.

Chapter 307 Carpet bombing?Let's leave it to their native land

With the hissing roar of the officers and the louder and louder the roar of the aircraft, the devils of the cavalry group subconsciously made various evasive actions.

Among them, the most proficient is naturally the tank No.70 regiment. They belonged to the 23rd Division of the Kwantung Army before they were transferred to the Mongolian Army, and they had the experience of fighting the entire battle of Nomenhan.

The bombing intensity of the Maozi back then was no worse than it is now.

"Scatter quickly! All tank squadrons focus on evasion! Don't have superfluous thoughts!"

"Baga! What are the infantry doing! Do you want to compare the speed with the plane? Where are the machine guns? Hurry up and set up the light and heavy machine guns! The enemy's fighter plane is flying very low! Dodge and attack me at the same time!"

"Contact the headquarters and let the Army Aviation send fighter jets to support it!"

Obviously, these devils who were not sent to Siberia to dig potatoes still had a few brushes.

Facing the sudden air attack, more than 50 light and medium tanks moved south and north immediately under the command of their regiment captain.

The trucks in charge of logistics transport were heading east and west, and they tried to disperse the troops to minimize losses.

The situation of the infantry is relatively miserable. There are almost no natural bunkers on the Great Plains.They could only crawl to avoid and wait for an opportunity to counterattack, and a set of movements was so skillful that it made people want to laugh.

Escort fighter group, pilot aircraft.

Comrades who have studied physics know one thing, that is, horizontal bombing is no less difficult than dive bombing.

There are many items that need to be calculated throughout the operation process, including aircraft airspeed, ground speed, drift angle, wind speed, flight altitude, average falling speed of bombs and many other parameters.

In film and television works, the behavior of flying directly above the target before dropping the bomb is pure nonsense, and it is not even as reliable as pressing the button in the game to enter the bombardier's aiming view.

Blenheim is a twin-engine fighter that first flew in 1935. Its bombing device is just a very simple optical sight. The bombing accuracy depends on the personal experience and feeling of the bomber.

When the entire escort formation was about to reach the sky above the devils, Captain Wang Hai said with a communication device:

"Get into the battle position! Fang Ziyi! Let's give the enemy some color!"

As the bombardier, Fang Ziyi didn't talk nonsense. He carefully checked the airspeed indicator and altitude indicator.Then he pulled the lever expressionlessly to open the bomb bay, and began to observe the situation on the ground through the sight.

A few seconds later, he first dropped two 227 kg aerial bombs.

At the same time, the fighter jets whose weight has suddenly decreased have a tendency to rise in height.Captain Wang Hai quickly stabilized his flying posture, for fear of affecting the accuracy of his teammates' bombing.

After the two big babies got out of the cabin, there were eight small 20-kilogram melons, and the whole plane kept throwing bombs like a hen laying eggs.

After seeing the pilot plane in action, the rest of the crew dropped their bombs together.

A full 240 aerial bombs, with the scream of death, covered the evacuation route of the tank No. 70 regiment from south to north.

The 227 kg aerial bomb is a classic model of the First Air Division. Even if it explodes around the Type [-] medium tank, it can paralyze the tank. If it is a little closer, it can even directly restore the enemy to the state of parts.

Although 20 kg is a junior in aerial bombs, the charge coefficient of even small aerial bombs is outrageous.Using it to deal with Type [-] light tanks and Type [-] medium tanks has a sense of anti-aircraft guns shooting mosquitoes.

"Boom boom boom!"

One after another, the aerial bombs landed on the route of No. 70 Regiment [-], and the powerful shock waves would overturn the devil's industrial garbage from time to time.

A certain Type [-] light tank that was so lucky even claimed the title of warrior for receiving aerial bombs from the turret.

The horizontal bombing technique of the First Air Division is indeed very immature, and some crews even only bombed the enemy with the first bomb.

However, the number of aerial bombs was quite a lot, and many devils were torn into pieces near the bombing point, and the body parts were mixed with the soil in the Suiyuan area.

In the face of justice from heaven, the little days have long forgotten the orders of their own captains.

counterattack?It's good to be alive, now they only hate their parents for giving them two legs.

Looking at the destroyed tank below, Fang Ziyi nodded in satisfaction.It was the first time for the army to carry out horizontal bombing in actual combat, and it was barely qualified to achieve such a record.

"Captain Wang, does this attack count as the carpet bombing Director Huang mentioned?"

"In the past, one of our planes could carry at most two aerial bombs. Even in the most intense battle of Zhongtiaoshan, we never dropped two hundred bombs at a time."

Hearing what his team members said, Captain Wang Hai smiled and shook his head.

Although the entire formation has just dropped 240 aerial bombs, the overall weight is less than ten tons, which is far from the level of carpet bombing.

"That's where it is. Ten tons of aerial bombs are barely enough in the Asian battlefield, but they are definitely not enough in Europe."

"When we have the opportunity to attack the enemy's homeland in the future, we will have hundreds of Lancaster bombers and drop thousands of tons to be qualified. The target of carpet bombing is densely populated or industrial areas, so bombing a few broken tanks is nothing."

It seemed that there was some resentment in his heart. When he said this, Captain Wang Hai specially adjusted Blenheim to a shallow dive posture, and then used the four aviation machine guns under the belly of the aircraft to sweep at the devils on the ground.

"Attention all crews, attention all crews!"

"The task of clearing the aerial bombs is over, don't fall in love with the battle and leave the battlefield immediately! I will continue to serve as the pilot for the next trip."

······
"Damn the Eighth Route Army! I will never stop with you!"

Looking at the howling plain, Kawasaki Zentaro clenched his fist tightly, he didn't even realize that his nails had pierced his palm.

Since the main target of the First Air Division was the tank No.70 regiment, the casualties of the cavalry No.14 regiment were not serious, and only more than 200 soldiers died in the air strike.

However, such battle damage is completely unacceptable to the old devil of noble origin.

We said before that the original cavalry group consisted of two units, the First Cavalry Brigade and the Fourth Cavalry Brigade, both of which also adopted the establishment of two wings.

In the Battle of Zhongtiaoshan, the Fourth Cavalry Brigade was almost wiped out on the Eastern Front.The First Air Division licked the ground for the first time, and killed one and a half regiments of cavalry.

Counting the losses just now, half of the cavalry group fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army Air Force.

For a devil like Kawasaki Zentaro who values ​​honor more than his life, the hatred of the Kongyi Division has surpassed that of the 35th Army in the Eighth War Zone.

"Communications! Go and see if First Commander Chunxiu is broken, and by the way, ask how many tanks they have left that can be used normally."

"In this kind of place, you can still meet the air force of the Eighth Route Army. The opponent is probably there to escort their airborne troops! Now that we go back in despair, Lieutenant General Xiyuan will definitely not spare us."

"If we can get rid of that airborne force, we will be guilty and meritorious! If I don't take revenge, I will not be human!"
