Episode 66 Bloody Setting Sun(2/2)
Soon, the black spots gradually increased in number and size, becoming a large area. At the same time, the roaring in the sky became deafening.
The air raid siren blared loudly, and everyone dropped their shovels and threw themselves on the ground.
Fifty or sixty dive bombers, as well as fifty or sixty fighter jets, hundreds of aircraft roared down and blocked the sky.
The anti-tank guns, infantry guns, and mortars on the forward positions were quickly tied with red ribbons one by one. The number of dead soldiers on the ground became increasingly dense. The defensive position just formed by the Red Division was in chaos again.
Like a big ant nest.
Hundreds of planes only dealt with one division. An air attack of this intensity had never been seen since the beginning of the exercise. Rommel obviously wanted to fully demonstrate the power of air supremacy in front of the Empress, and also wanted to make the fight as entertaining as possible.
For this reason, he almost emptied all the aircraft on other battlefields and only retained the number of reconnaissance-level aircraft.
But having said that, this method of concentrating troops to attack a small area is also one of the essences of blitz warfare.
At the same time as the air strike was going on, countless bright spots appeared swaying on the east side of the earth. At the same time, the flashes of artillery fire began to flash one after another.
Under the bloody setting sun and the gradually darkening sky, those countless bright spots looked extremely dazzling.
After a few minutes, those hundreds of bright spots turned into bright car lights, and at the same time, the figures of tanks and armored vehicles also appeared behind them. Tank guns and machine guns continued to spit out tongues of flame, and the car lights shook like countless heads.
The glaring monster rushed over with a roar.
The ground trembled, and amid the roar of the plane overhead, another sound came clearly.
Countless shrill things were screaming in the world. That sound sounded very familiar to the Red Army officers and soldiers. It was a scream that made their hearts beat with fear.
Air defense alert.
However, it seemed like countless air defense sirens were screaming, accompanied by the trembling of the ground beneath their feet, the roar of aircraft overhead, and those tank lights surrounding them from all sides...
This is just like volcanic eruptions, major earthquakes, typhoons, floods, and tsunamis. People who are surrounded do not want anything else but to escape and escape from it all.
This kind of horror is like a nightmare.
…
Rommel once again used his creativity. He ordered all tanks and armored vehicles to turn on their lights in the bloody setting sun, and at the same time, they were equipped with hand-cranked air defense sirens, and they sounded the sirens as they moved forward.
