1927, the German army has begun to increase its troop deployment on the Eastern Front.
While significantly reducing the number of troops on the Western Front, the German army deployed four armies on the Eastern Front in one go!
Although it is possible that the German army may still launch a surprise attack on Gaul in the west, it is easier to attack Poland and attack the Eastern Front!
After the outbreak of the Second German-Polish War, the German army attacked very quickly. After the outbreak of the war, the Third Army of East Prussia took the lead in starting from Königsberg and attacked the Polish capital of Warsaw to the south, directly threatening the capital of the Polish people and forcing them to shrink their forces to the capital.
The Fourth Army of Silesia started from Breslau and marched towards the Lodz area, cutting off the retreat of the Polish army’s left wing from the south.
At the same time, the Sixth Army in the Pomeranian region quickly sent troops to attack eastward, directly pointing to the Danze area, with the aim of cutting off the retreat of the Polish army’s right wing.
As for Guderian’s First Army, they set out from the forefront of the battle, that is, the Posen Province, and headed straight for Warsaw!
The battle started at 4:10 in the morning. The moment the war started, the German army dispatched 350 aircraft to bomb the frontier positions of the Polish army.
Their main bombing targets were important targets such as the Polish army’s barracks, ammunition depots and oil depots!
The number of aircraft in various countries in this era is far less than that during World War II. The German army is currently equipped with only about 1,200 aircraft, including 750 fighters, 350 attached bombers, 100 large bombers and 100 reconnaissance aircraft!
As for Poland, because their country’s industry is not developed, Poland’s air force is very weak. Their aircraft are basically World War I aircraft eliminated by the Sun Never Sets and Gaul. It has a history of eight or nine years. Not only are the models very old, but the maintenance of the aircraft itself is also very poor, and the combat effectiveness is very low!
Because of the limited number of aircraft, the German army’s first round of air raids did not target the airport in Poland. Instead, after bombing the oil depot, ammunition depot and military camp, the airport was listed as the target of the second round of air raids!
The first round of air raids was launched at 4:15 in the morning, and the second round of air raids was launched at 5:35.
At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and the Polish people on the front line had been alarmed.
Although they did not know that Hans had declared war on his country, the huge roar from the air still made them feel abnormal!
So, the Polish Air Force took off forcibly before dawn, left the airport, and flew into the sky to prepare to investigate the situation nearby!
The speed of aircraft in World War I was generally slow, and the fastest speed was only 180 kilometers per hour. This speed was simply a snail in front of World War II aircraft! At
5:42, the pilots of the Polish Air Force discovered a group of aircraft hidden in the clouds and swooped towards their own airport!
Realizing that something was wrong, they urgently notified the airport while bravely rushing towards the enemy above their heads.
This reckless behavior directly made them completely lose hope of escape!
General Goering, who personally led the team to command the operation, drove a brand new BF-109 fighter with his wingman, issued an order for free combat, and then swooped down on his prey!
When the silver wings of the B-109 emitted a touch of shining orange light under the rising sun, the Polish people realized that something was wrong!
“Oh my god, what is this thing and how can it be so fast?
“Watch out, Steve, they’re coming towards you!”
Da da da!
The swooping BF-109 had an unparalleled speed, and its superb power and excellent flight control system excited every cell in General Goering’s body!
After he pulled the trigger, he saw the enemy plane explode in the airspace in an instant, disintegrating into pieces!
He couldn’t help but let out a roar of anger! He finally found the feeling of fighting with the Allied Air Force in the sky!
It was so fucking refreshing!
Goering was so excited that he was not satisfied after shooting down an enemy plane. He quickly turned within a small radius like a show of skill, aimed at another plane again, rushed over, and hit the opponent’s soft belly from the side and rear. The scorching bullet directly penetrated the enemy plane’s fuel tank, causing the plane to burn into a fireball in the air before it could resist!
“Cool!”
“Come again!”
Goering, who was mad with red eyes, looked around for the next prey, but there were no planes of Borland in the sky!
All the planes were shot down by the Germans in the hunting operation just now!
He felt very happy, and the German fighter pilots said they felt very happy too!
So, under their beating like chopping melons and vegetables, the Borland air force turned into fireballs before they had time to resist, performing a wonderful show of meteor shower for the ground!
“”Well done, boys, I’m proud of you!”
Now that there was no prey, Goering’s mood began to calm down.
He praised the boys under his command and praised their wonderful performance just now.
At the same time, he gathered the formation and continued to perform the escort mission to protect his extremely precious large bombers!
The German large bomber is based on the B-29 bomber and is a large strategic bomber produced after targeted transformation.
Compared with the original B-29, the size of the German B-29 has been enlarged by one third, and the reserve of the aircraft’s fuel tank has been increased, allowing it to carry more fuel, and the size of the bomb bay in the cabin has been enlarged, allowing it to have a larger bomb load!
These improvements have enabled the improved version of the B-29 to have an ultra-long range of 7,500 kilometers and an ultra-large combat radius of 200 kilometers!
In addition, the bomb load of this aircraft has been increased from the original 9 tons to 12 tons!
In this era of 1927, the cost of this improvement is very expensive!
Originally in history, the US military’s The cost of a B-29 is about $650,000, which is about 1.3 million marks.
However, the cost of Hans’ B-29 at this time is close to 2 million marks, which is at least one-third more expensive than the US military’s B-29!
You get what you pay for. The performance of the aircraft has improved so much, and the size has become so much larger. If the price does not increase, it will be unreasonable!
As the most advanced fighter in the world at this time, the cost of the BF-109 that Goering sat on was only 120,000 marks, and a B-29 was almost equivalent to 16 fighters!
Such an expensive big guy, being shot down is equivalent to losing a squadron of fighters. No one can afford this price!
Moreover, the number of B-29s is limited. There are only 100 in Hans at present, so losing one is not only a financial loss, but also directly affects the combat effectiveness of Hans’s Air Force!
By then, even if all the fighters of the Polish people they shot down are added together, it will not be enough to compensate!
All 100B-29 bombers had been dispatched. After the fighter unit cleared the enemy’s air power, they easily locked on and dropped bombs on the target without any threat. The
Polish people swore that they had never suffered such a fierce bombing in their lives!
100B-29, each fully loaded with 12 tons of bombs, 1,200 tons, 5,000 50-pound bombs fell from the sky, blowing them all up!
This bombing is much more violent than the bombardment of artillery shells! The power of 500 bombs is greater than that of 280mm naval guns!
Moreover, the bombs all fell down at once, completing the carpet-like coverage in an instant. In just a few seconds, the artillery shells swept the ground clean! After the bombing, airports, oil depots, ammunition depots…all turned into a sea of fire!
The whole world realized at this moment: it turns out that the air force is so powerful!
