Imperial Overlord

The bombing of Britain is definitely not an attack that ends with one attack, but a matter of bombing countless times. Li Le knew this, and of course Goering knew it very well.

And since the information that Li Le knows can only be used once, it is necessary to destroy these places that Li Le knows as soon as possible, so that the British lose their ability to fight.

So, in the afternoon of the same day, when Churchill was still ordering a review of all relevant personnel, the German bomber force once again visited the southern part of England.

This time, more things were destroyed, because the British air defense network had inexplicably collapsed in the morning.

In just an hour, British bomber production fell again by 10 percent, while fighter production fell by half.

In another time and space, after the British Air War began, the United Kingdom produced a total of more than 460 fighter jets in August. These newly produced Spitfires and Hurricanes caused considerable losses to the Luftwaffe.

But this time, the Luftwaffe reduced the production capacity of British aircraft to half of what it was before, all of a sudden relieved its pressure.

At the same time, ME-109 fighter jets with bombs attacked a British field airfield in a surprise attack, blowing up 50 camouflaged Hurricane fighter jets parked there.

The tactics used in this sneak attack were originally the last resort tactics used by the Luftwaffe at the end of August.

Now, under the arrangement of Li Le, it is actively used in order to annihilate the British local fighter force in the whole of August.

Li Le's tactic is very simple, that is, to concentrate superior forces and gather all the fighter units within the range of the British 11th Air Force.

Including the airport and the radar station, including the aircraft manufacturing factory and other factories, Li Le did not intend to waste his troops and time. He wanted to paralyze the British war industry capability in the most direct way.

Compared with the battle objectives that the Luftwaffe has repeatedly changed and the scattered combat power, all Li Le can do is to clench his fists and implement a principle!

In the Rennes region of France, a group of German ground crews are loading 240kg bombs on the HE-111 bomber at the Luftwaffe base.

Although the design idea of ​​HE-111 is a bit outdated, after all, it has already served a huge number, and it can only be used at this time.

The better JU-88 bomber is more popular with front-line Air Force bomber pilots at this time, but after all, there are still many HE-111s to perform missions.

"This bombing mission doesn't look very ordinary." A ground staff sighed to the people around him while hanging bombs weighing 240 kilograms into the bomb bay of the aircraft with a bomb-hung machine road.

Different from the way that the aircraft mounts bombs now, in the bomb bay of the HE-111 bomber, the aerial bombs are hung upside down into the bomb bay. When the bombs are dropped, these bombs with their heads turned upward have to turn their direction in the sky, which is quite different. .

Because the HE-111 bomber was developed from a civilian model, this bomber also has portholes, but they are covered with skins.

However, the internal structure is still preserved. The main reason for this is to simplify the production process and use the original production line as much as possible.

"Isn't that true? I heard that all 40 HE-111 bombers in the base are going to take off. Except for the raid in the morning, this time dispatching so many bombers must also be a big target." A ground service soldier nodded in agreement: "No I know where it's going to be bad luck again, so many aerial bombs."

The commander of the Air Force bomber unit next to him is identifying the bombing target that his unit needs to attack from the photos brought back by the long-range reconnaissance plane.

The bombers taking off this time are going to bomb Rochester, destroying a suburban airport hidden in the city.

The Fuhrer believed that there was a British fighter unit hidden there, with at least 50 aircraft.

The aerial photos were the same as the previous bombing targets, and there were almost no discoveries. Everything looks normal there, not even suspicious details.

But this time, the pilots of the bomber unit that took off are full of confidence, because the news just fed back is very exciting.

This time, the British hardly took off any fighter jets to intercept them. The German attacking force was in a no-man's land and easily destroyed more factories.

It seems that the British early warning system has been effectively destroyed, and the Führer's attack on the radar station is very effective.

The marked location of the airport is very detailed, and after careful identification, it can indeed hide the next small field airport.

This time, the German aircraft took off to attack this target, and even the nearby water plant and power plant in Rochester.

This is done to paralyze the city, so that the British can't get electricity in the small hidden factories nearby, and paralyze the production of these small handicraft workshops.

German reconnaissance aircraft can bring back reconnaissance photos at very high altitudes, but these photos are not easy to identify and can only provide a rough terrain analysis.

Because of the detailed coordinate information of the Fuhrer, the Luftwaffe did not have to take the risk of confirming the targets to be attacked. They only needed to obey the order to destroy the place destroyed by the Fuhrer.

"Dropping bombs at an altitude of 6,000 meters and using carpet bombing tactics, our bombs may miss the target by a few hundred meters, but coverage can still be guaranteed." A bombardier of a bomber was discussing the imminent attack with the commander.

As he said, he drew a width with his hand: "After aiming at the target, it is best to ensure the height of the aircraft, the precise height of the sight is determined, and when bombs are dropped at this height, more than half of the bombs can be guaranteed to hit the target. "

"It doesn't need to be so complicated. In addition to our 40 FE-111s, there are bombers taking off from other airports, at least 80 or more!" His commander said with a relaxed expression.

I heard that the British had given up taking off fighter jets to intercept them. In this case, the mission of bombing the United Kingdom is not as dangerous as it sounds.

From another point of view, modern bombing tactics do seem to shorten the enemy's reaction time. Without radar to provide early warning, it is indeed not easy to coordinate air defense operations.

The commander coughed and continued: "You guys! You just need to drop bombs to attack the target normally! Don't be nervous!"

The commander finally comforted everyone and said, "The bombing should be in a dense formation, and try to ensure the accuracy of the attack, understand?"

"Sir, do we really know all the important targets of the British?" a young bomber machine gunner asked curiously.

His words aroused everyone's sympathy, and several people nodded their heads and asked, "Why does it feel mysterious, does the Führer really know everything?"

"The specific scale can only be known by people at the level of Marshal Kesselring." The commander answered everyone's questions with a smile.

"I only know that the bombers at the four nearby airports have to take off and perform missions. If you calculate this, let's say there are at least 167 bombers?" The commander didn't know the exact size, but when he went to the combat mission deployment meeting He saw the commanders of several nearby airports, so he knew that the size of the German air force dispatched this time was quite large.

"But these bombers don't seem to be going to attack a target. I heard that the guys next door are on a mission with us to bomb Rochester!" .

"That's a lot." Several captains said as they walked towards their planes.

Some HE-111 bombers have already started the two huge engines on the engine wings, and for a time, the entire airport is full of mechanical roars.

The pilot pressed the throat communicator, reported his fuel quantity over and over again, checked the fuel tank pressure and confirmed that the communication was smooth.

"Tower! This is No. 1. Everything is normal! Can you hear my voice?" UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

"No. 1, I can clearly hear your voice. Everything is normal. Your take-off sequence is ranked first. Please taxi to the standby runway." various commands.

In the sky, the JU-88 bombers taking off from behind had already flown over their heads, and the sky was densely covered like a swarm of bees.

Obviously they also have their own attack missions, and from this day to this time, the Luftwaffe has taken off a record 1,100 sorties.

Whether bombers or **** fighters, Luftwaffe pilots dominated the skies of southern England, at least for this time.

On the ground, HE-111 bombers with huge oval wings began to glide one by one.

Soon, the first plane took off on the long runway, followed by the second and the third.

In the end, all 40 bombers at this airport took off successfully, forming a rather spectacular formation in the sky.

"I wish you good luck!" Inside the ground control tower, the officer held the intercom and blessed his subordinates.

Possibly, these German pilots do not need the blessing of good luck at this moment. On the contrary, there are many people who need this blessing near the target they are going to bomb.

Above the sky, another German bomber unit that took off from the field airfield not far away joined this bomber formation.

The targets they want to attack are the same. In order to ensure the destruction of the targets, Li Le prepared double the amount of bombs for the scattered targets in the UK.

These planes formed their own formation not far away and began to fly towards the target in a mighty manner.
