Chapter 105 Arriving in Ludwigshafen(2/4)
Accompanied by fire and explosions.
Gu Ji ran into the air-raid shelter, which was very deep inside. Old-fashioned tungsten light bulbs fixed with barbed wire were hung on the cement walls on both sides.
Parked on the innermost side is a black twin-propeller aircraft, which is exactly what Felix said was the Heinkel He-111 medium bomber.
The entire aircraft is 16.4 meters long, has a wingspan of 22.6 meters, and has two free-fall bombs hanging underneath. Of course, the most special thing is its "nose".
The He-111's cabin is completely transparent, composed of aviation glass and alloy keels, which not only provides pilots and bombardiers with excellent visibility, but also reduces drag.
There is no machine turret suppression.
The Fog Army soldiers outside the air-raid shelter once again surrounded them from the mountain forest. One of the soldiers raised a signal gun and fired a red flare into the air.
Gu Ji turned around and fired a few shots, then quickly got into the cockpit.
The He-111 bomber can carry 5 people, namely driver, navigator, bombardier, front gunner, and rear gunner.
Because the aircraft cabin is completely transparent, including the bottom, it is also glass.
Gu Ji felt a little uncomfortable when he sat on it for the first time, but he quickly found the machine gun button in the cabin and suddenly pulled the trigger.
Da da da……
The MG-131 machine gun with a diameter of 13 mm is simply a crushing force for an individual soldier. The bullets penetrated the soldier's abdomen the moment they fired, without any obstruction.
Felix finished checking all the buttons and looked back at Gu Ji.
"This medium-sized bomber generally requires the co-operation of a navigator to fly it. You can open the flaps for me, and 10 degrees is enough."
"OK."
Gu Ji happened to secretly learn how to operate an airplane.
Unexpectedly, this classic World War II level has unexpected rewards. Not only do you learn to control a tank turret, but you can also learn to fly an airplane.
After opening the flaps, Felix began to slowly advance the throttle with one hand. When the plane started to take off, the other hand controlled the rudder to keep it straight.
As the plane gradually accelerated, it quickly rushed out of the air-raid shelter.
Through the radio, Gu Ji could clearly see Eugen's excited shouting in the machine gun room, "Go to hell! You shameless Fog Country pariahs!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of machine gun fire rang out from the fuselage.
The soldiers of the Fog Army in the open space were dodging while making a final counterattack. Bullets hit the bomber's fuselage, making a crackling sound.
"Sit tight!"
Seeing that the speed was about the same, Felix began to gently pull the flight controller backwards, maintaining the climb rate, and the nose of the aircraft began to rise upward. The fuselage rubbed the olive grove below and rose into the sky like an increasing function curve.
"Woohoo~"
"We are finally saved haha..."
Leer was just immersed in the excitement of escaping and laughed happily, but soon, everyone saw the battle situation of Astani again through the transparent observation window.
The coastal troops were almost defeated by the Fog Eagle coalition, and the armored troops of the Fog Army could be seen everywhere in the Rutana volcano jungle. A large number of tanks were traveling in the mountains and forests, gradually surrounding Yastani and attacking Messina.
.
Eugen gritted his teeth and said.
"Lieutenant, let's fly over the Fog Army armored forces and bomb these untouchables!"
"But we don't have any bombardiers here."
Luka was sitting next to Gu Ji.
Bombers are different from tanks. In addition to considering the parabola angle, bombers also need to consider flight speed, altitude, wind direction interference, etc., which is much more complicated than the former.
"Damn it!"
Eugen had no choice but to slap the handle of the machine gun hard, pull the trigger, and fire downwards from mid-air, intending to vent his unwilling anger.
But he didn't wait for a few seconds to shoot.
Whoosh… clang!
Several gusts of wind suddenly struck, and there was a crisp sound from the wing.
"It's the anti-aircraft machine gun of the Fog Army!"
Gu Ji judged from the tracer bullets that it was fired from the ground, "Eugen, Sergeant Leer, increase the firepower to suppress it. Felix, speed up and leave here immediately!"
Upon hearing this, Felix immediately pushed the throttle lever to the full limit and continued to increase the flight altitude. At this time, the pointer of the vertical speed indicator began to shake, but it could not reach the top.
"The plane is carrying too much weight."
"Then throw it all away."
Luca decisively pressed the bomb release button, the bottom hatch opened, and all the thousands of kilograms of bombs carried in the cabin were released at once.
Along with dozens of round objects falling into the mountain forest.
Delay for half a second.
Rumble——!
Like an earthquake, the entire green jungle instantly turned into a sea of fire, like a long dragon. A large amount of steaming heat waves even swept high into the sky and roared through the fuselage.
Although I don’t know if the Fog Army armored troops were bombed.
But the expressions of Luca and others were still very excited.
really.
Explosion is a man's romance.
After all, it wasn’t my home that was bombed.
After the bomber reached an altitude of 4,600 meters, Felix turned on the cruise mode. Looking from a high altitude, the east coast of Nannan Island in the Mediterranean Sea was red, as if a corner of a soldering iron had been burned red.
"I can't believe we made it out of this hell alive."
Felix couldn't help but sigh at this time, and then as if he remembered something, he turned to look at Gu Ji, "Thanks to Brother You, which army are you from and what's your name?"
"29th Armored Division, Hermann."
"29th Division? I thought you were from the Brandenburg Force of the General Staff Intelligence Bureau. Your combat command skills are really good. I once encountered an attack by Gomande troops from the Fog Country while performing a mission in Vichy Gaul.
Speaking from personal experience, you are even more resilient than them."
Felix was not shy about his praise.
The Brandenburg and Gomand units he mentioned were the prototypes of modern special forces.
The former made great achievements in the Polish campaign in 1939 and the Western European campaign in 1940 due to his excellent special operations skills. Unfortunately, the Hans Army Corps expressed disdain for this "sneaky" combat method, and was later changed.
Return to the front and fight.
The latter is quite different.
The Gormand Force is a new combat force that was personally ordered by Prime Minister Churchill of the Fog Kingdom. It was originally intended to launch continuous attacks on the areas occupied by the Hans Army. Because of its surprising results, it was later transformed into the world's first special force to perform tasks independently.
This is the predecessor of the famous SAS special forces of the Fog Country, known as the "originator" of modern special forces.
But Gu Ji also knew that after Mosnelli stepped down today.
In order to rescue his "partner" from prison, Luchter reorganized an Orningborg commando based on the framework of the Brandenburg force.
It was also from this period.
The concept of "special operations" is gradually being taken seriously by countries around the world, such as the Japanese Kamikaze Agents, Zhentian Agents, Eagle Country Rangers, Chairman Xia's Special Guards, etc. Even CQB has become very popular and has become a later military force.
Required police training subjects.
Luca on the side remained silent.
But when he lowered his eyes, his pupils were always watching Gu Ji's expression.
It looked like he was suspicious.
This is normal. After all, Luca is the SS beside Lechter, and he has naturally seen a lot of the world. If grabbing the tank before was a sudden thought, then the raid on the air-raid shelter just now was definitely done only with special military training.
Some performance.
It just so happens that this is World War II.
Gu Ji still couldn't lift out the tiger skin of "Code Name: 7472".
So he thought for a moment and said, "I once trained with Chief Kosl for a period of time."
"Oh? You actually know him?"
Luka raised his eyebrows and suddenly asked.
Gu Ji was not surprised, but nodded as if nothing had happened.
Otto Kossl, known as the most dangerous man in Europe, was the captain of the special forces of the Hans-Waffen SS in World War II and the commander of the special forces of Orningborg. He was once ordered to carry out the mission of rescuing Mosnelli and has extremely rich knowledge.
special operations experience.
Before being transferred, he had served in the 1st "Rif Lechter" Division, so Luca, who was in the same unit, had naturally heard of him.
Hearing the familiar name, Luka seemed to think of his dead subordinates again, and his expression became a little silent.
To be continued...
