Chapter 235 Bloody Battle in Baku

Because Germany's "Six Master" aircraft has an overwhelming advantage, the United States has produced the p59 two years ahead of schedule. The United States naturally has this technical reserve and hastily started the research and development of jet aircraft. Eight months is a short period of time. In eight months, significant progress has been made, which is a very remarkable scientific and technological research and development capability.

"Okay, okay, General Marshall, you must urge them to speed up the production of the prototype, produce the prototype as soon as possible, and then test the flight, we need this jet, otherwise the skies of our US military will be dominated by Germany in the future, this is our It cannot be tolerated, so I will leave everything to General Marshall, and you will give whatever the research and development company needs."

"Okay, Mr. President."

……

Prime Minister's Office in London:

Churchill also received a report on the development of jet aircraft, and Britain also successfully developed a jet fighter named "Meteor", which made Churchill ecstatic, and quickly summoned Frank Whittle, Frank Whittle He is the inventor of the British jet engine.

Even the German jet engine was developed on the basis of Frank Whittle's research.

In the 20s, Royal Air Force mechanical engineer Frank Whittle designed a jet fighter with a speed of 30 miles per hour (about 500 kilometers) and applied for a patent.However, when Whittle presented plans to build jet fighters to the RAF, he was told that the plan was "totally impractical", and the head of the RAF was unwilling to invest a penny in the project.This meant that Frank Whittle was forced to advertise his patent internationally in the hope of finding a private investor to invest in the invention.But the document fell into German hands.Germany used Whittle's blueprints to develop the German jet fighter program

Whittle allowed his patent documents not to be kept secret.A few months later the document reached Berlin, Germany.Assigned to numerous aviation agencies.That document intrigued German engineers to develop their own jet aircraft.

As early as 8, eight years before the outbreak of World War II, Whittle proposed the idea of ​​making jet aircraft to his boss, Dr. AA Griffiths, a senior engineer of the Royal Air Force, but was rejected by Griffiths. Denied it on the spot.Whittle, confident in his invention and unwilling to be shelved, disseminated his patent internationally in order to find a private investor or investors to invest in it.Crucial details of the jet's patent were published in its entirety, obtained by Germany's aerodynamic research institute.And send the file to Hans von O'Hain.

With the help of this design drawing, O'Hain successfully developed the Messerschmitt me-262 jet fighter, which was put into mass production in 1944.Whittle finally relied on two businessmen, and Britain's first jet fighter was put into service in 1944.But Goley claimed that O'Hain's German jet fighter would never have taken to the skies without Whittle's patented invention.You know, jet planes fly much faster than propeller planes, and they fly higher, as high as 33000 to 49000 feet (about 1 to 1.5 meters).

It was generally believed that the Germans independently invented the jet engine, but this view was wrong.

Now because of the appearance of Zhang Jun.Zhang Junyi provided a little shape, so he could only omit the step of blowing the hole.The jet engine is the most important thing. In fact, German scientists borrowed from the research and design of British scientist Frank Whittle.Facts are facts and cannot be tampered with, but German research is "the blue out of the blue is better than the blue".

Churchill and Montgomery carefully discussed the production and development of the "Meteor". They meant that a lot of money and technological power must be invested to mass-produce the "Meteor" jet fighter as soon as possible.

Germany's "Six Lords", America's p59, and Britain's "Meteor" have brought the whole world into the era of jet aircraft a few years earlier. Zhang Jun originally thought that his jet fighter's technological advantages would last for two years, but unfortunately, from 39 In just over a year since the appearance of "Six Lords", Britain, France and the United States have developed their own jet fighters. Of course, it is not yet known how effective their jet fighters are. At least these three countries have already known to the importance of jet aircraft, and has taken a strong step in the development of jet aircraft.

Because of German tanks, the United States and the Soviet Union are still researching large-caliber anti-tank guns. Although the Soviet Union did not have the ability to produce jet aircraft, the research and development of Soviet artillery and tanks is not behind at all, especially the mass production of T34. The accelerated research and development of the IS series tanks have all advanced by leaps and bounds.

……

On May 1940, 5, the Battle of Baku kicked off again. As soon as the battle started this time, Zhang Jun asked Hartman to divide the air force into three parts, and continuously bombed the positions of the Soviet army. The first is to build the Soviet airport. Zhang Jun doesn’t want his artillery to be attacked once. The second task is to clear the way for the tanks. The ju21 dive bomber has two 87 kg bombs. All the fortifications are scum.

Hartman suffered a big loss last time, but this time he was determined to get back on the field. The overwhelming fleet flew over the Soviet positions, dropping a bomb or two from time to time. What kind of fortification can withstand the 500-kilogram level? bomb?Only reinforced concrete fortifications with a thickness of more than two meters are possible, but Zhukov is unable to build so many permanent fortifications in the field.

And the German artillery poured countless shells onto the Soviet positions. Numerous soaring explosions shattered the first line of defense of the Soviets in an instant. The minimum caliber of these cannons was 120mm. The trenches dug on the defense line are useless. A single shell can blow up a large section, and the people in the trenches have absolutely no hope of being alive.

In this attack, Zhukov did not send planes to attack the German SS. The main reason is that Zhukov has no planes to send. Although Zhukov has no planes to support him, it does not mean that Zhukov has no trump card. Zhukov still has a trump card. Zhukov is already in Germany A feast was arranged along the possible route of the SS attack.

"Boom...boom..."

The shelling of the SS army lasted for 10 minutes and then stopped. Zhang Jun didn't want to waste ammunition. The first two Soviet lines of defense really didn't need heavy shelling. It cannot be used indiscriminately, it must be used in key places.

For this attack, Zhang Jun mobilized nine armored divisions for the attack. Behind the armored divisions were ten infantry divisions. The nine armored divisions were divided into three assault groups, each with three tank divisions, and each assault group had three tank divisions. For the first time, use one tank division to attack, one tank division to follow, and one tank division to maintain. The frontal width of each tank division's attack is 2-5 kilometers wide.

When three red signal flares rose in the sky, the SS tanks began to attack. Each armored assault group was about ten kilometers apart. Needless to say, the Soviet cannon fodder on the first line of defense, the SS tanks and armored vehicles directly It was crushed, and there was basically no resistance. The cannons of the SS had already dissipated the cannon fodder.

Of course Zhukov knew the strength of the artillery and tanks of the SS Army. The front lines of defense were all cannon fodder troops. These troops did not have many heavy weapons. The most they had were anti-tank grenades and explosive kits.

Fritz was downgraded last time because of greed, and now he is only the rank of sergeant squad leader, but Zhang Jun still let Fritz continue to serve as the commander of the "Reaper of Souls" armored regiment, and today Fritz was assigned to the front line again , Fritz led 150 tanks and the same number of armored vehicles. Behind them were two other tank regiments following up. Their task was to replace the "Reaper of Death" armored regiment after a certain distance. Sickle" armored regiment, behind the armored regiment assault group is a full five infantry divisions.

This following infantry division occupied the position where the armored assault group broke through, completely tearing apart the defensive front of the Soviet army.

"Boom...Boom..."

"Reporting to the head of the regiment, the first line of defense of the Soviet army has been destroyed by artillery, and there is no resistance. Please give instructions."

Fritz thought for a while, then picked up the microphone in front of him, and began to report the situation to his superiors. After receiving the order to continue the attack, Fritz didn't hesitate, and quickly ordered his tanks to fire at the Soviet army's attack. The second line of defense was crushed away. Now Fritz is more careful. During the attack, he did not forget to contact the air force above him. Colonel Weiss is the "nanny" of Fritz and his armored assault group. ".

When Fritz contacted Colonel Weiss, Weiss told Fritz directly that the Soviet troops in the two lines of defense in front were not very strong, and Colonel Weiss told Fritz to throw off his arms and charge.

Since the threat from the Soviet army was not great, Fritz of course wanted to throw his shoulders away, but Fritz, who was carrying punishment on his back, dared not be arrogant, otherwise his acting commander would be removed.

"All tanks maintain formation and continue to attack and move forward."

Soon Fritz and the others rushed to the front of the Soviet army's second line of defense. Fritz adjusted his formation and prepared for the assault.

Navici is an authentic Georgian farmer. He usually lives in a collective farm. Originally, the grain harvest is abundant, but every year the grain has to be transported out in large quantities. As a result, Navici and his farm cannot eat enough. There are people who starve to death, but no one dares to resist. Even if they say something wrong, they may face execution.

Suddenly the war broke out, Naweiqi was forcibly drawn into the army, and Naweiqi was assigned to the second line of defense. The soldiers here were all peasants who had just joined the army in a hurry, and only the field discipline personnel led by the political commissar were veterans. People are fierce, as long as anyone dares to escape, they will be executed immediately by the political commissar... (to be continued...)
