Chapter 173 Operation Storm

"Will we meet here be too eye-catching? Should we go into the command center to chat?"

While accompanying Admiral Arnold to patrol the pilots' pre-war work in the airport, Eisenhower looked at the soldiers staring at them intently, and then suggested to Admiral Arnold.

"Well! No, President Roosevelt attaches great importance to this 100-air bombing operation, and in order to wait for the arrival of our new fighter fleet, you have delayed the battle for one more day! So I'll just observe the pilots' pre-war situation here!"

Admiral Arnold shook his head and said.

"Since that's the case, I'll watch it with you! Actually, I'm very nervous about this combat operation! Because recently, the German aviation troops have always been able to elusively at the right time; at the right place, the right forces appear, and defeat our air force!"

"At the same time, they still don't know when they have a large number of new fw190a-6/r1 fighters, and they are also equipped with 21mmwfrgr21 rockets. These new fighters are very lethal to our fighter fleet! We have many fighter jets and bombers shot down by these new fighters!"

While accompanying Admiral Arnold, Eisenhower also told the troubles he encountered.

"I have heard your report on this matter, so this time I dispatched so many P-47 Thunderbolt fighters to President Roosevelt and the P-51 Mustang fighters to come to you for combat use."

"Originally, these new fighter jets were all arranged to kill the Japanese in the Pacific!"

Admiral Arnold replied calmly.

"Thank you and President Roosevelt! Otherwise, we may have a headache when dealing with those new German fighters!"

Eisenhower said gratefully.

"With the P-51 Mustang fighter fleet, you don't have to worry about the German fighter jets anymore. Europe's air supremacy will soon be ours!"

Admiral Arnold was confident.

"Well, I think so too, but it would be better for us to keep understanding the every move of the German army! Just like the motto in Sun Tzu's Art of War worshipped by Anderson and Hughes, who said that if you understand yourself and also understand the enemy, you can be invincible; if you only understand yourself and not the enemy, you only have half the chance of winning; if you don't understand yourself and don't understand the enemy, you have no chance of winning at all."

Eisenhower nodded.

"Well, you're right! How's the recent achievements of the "enemy target team" that Anderson and Hughes are both responsible?"

Admiral Arnold agreed.

"They have done a good job, whether it is the collection of information from the German air force, the selection of targets we are going to bomb, the grouping of areas, and the order of bombing are all very exciting!"

Eisenhower said in an admirational tone.

"That's good! It seems that I didn't promote the wrong person!"

Admiral Arnold responded with satisfaction.

After saying that, he focused his attention on the new P-51 Mustang fighter fleet, and at the same time, a sense of confidence and fighting spirit unknowingly surged in his heart.

Eisenhower no longer spoke, but also turned his attention to those P-51 Mustang fighter fleets.

At that moment, his uneasy mood recently finally relaxed completely.

Just the night before, he was very nervous about the performance of his bombing operations, whether the German air force would be dispatched in large quantities, and suddenly received combat orders to postpone the bombing.

He was worried all night about these troublesome things.

It was not until this morning that he saw General Arnold, the P-47 Thunderbolt Fighters and the P-51 Mustang Fighters that followed him; he showed his long-lost hearty laughter and his heartfelt happiness.

"We will definitely win tonight, and we will definitely capture Panteleria Island and increase the morale of our troops!"

After looking for a moment, Eisenhower inspired in his heart.

"I hope there will be no other unexpected things happening this time! Why do I feel something bad that comes to my mind!"

But soon, another unknown premonition came to his heart, making him murmur uneasy.

In fact, his premonition was accurate, although Chen Yanlong did not intend to send air forces to stop the large-scale bombing of British and American troops and attack Panteleria Island.

But it does not mean that he does not dispatch air forces and submarine forces to attack the British and American transport fleets.

Especially those transport fleets that went to Algiers to assemble and prepare for Sicily combat are the first targets for Chen Yanlong to take annihilation.

The NC-68 fleet is one of the primary targets of Chen Yanlong's secretly dispatching aviation troops tonight and conducting sneak attacks with submarine troops.

Because in addition to this fleet, there are five other fleets that Chen Yanlong is going to launch an important target for sneak attacks.

The aviation force responsible for this sudden attack was a flight team organized by the 5th Air Force and the pilots of the reserve.

There were about 300 aircraft dispatched, 100 of which were fw190a-6/r1 fighters, and 200 do-217k bombers.

These do-217k bomber groups are all loaded with HS293 air-ship missiles, and there are a lot of them.

The hs-293 ​​is the world's first air-ship missile to be put into actual combat, and it has sunk many British and American ships and ships at the end of World War II.

Although the German army now has a lot of these HS293 air-ship missiles, Chen Yanlong felt that their number was not large enough; so he not only ordered Sper to increase production, but also used the redemption system to redeem a lot.

And all the redeemable and all the HS293 air-ship missiles that the German army now owns are ready to be put into the immediate combat operation of sneak attacking the enemy's transport fleet.

Chen Yanlong also named this combat operation ‘Operation Storm’.
