A fierce air battle broke out suddenly. An hour later, the Soviet army was shot down and destroyed more than 500 Il-2 attack aircraft, while the German army lost only 18 SumiG-15s and F-86 Sabre fighters.

Shortly after the battle began, the German Ar-234 jet bomber, the Me262 jet fighter, and the Ta152 fighter group also joined various air combat battlefields and fought desperately with various types of Soviet aircraft.

For such a huge loss, the commanders of the Soviet Aviation Department were bleeding and in pain.

So they could only give orders to temporarily evacuate their air force and make adjustments to prepare for the second round of attacks.

However, the German army immediately dispatched a large number of Ar-234 jet bombers to pursue the Soviet army in life and death; and bombed the Soviet troops, military facilities, and military camp deployments in the Dnieper River area.

For those who were originally going to destroy the German anti-aircraft artillery and their fighter fleets, they completely avoided air supremacy and paved the way for the large-scale counterattack of the Soviet army. Who knew that now, they were killed by the German army in turn and did not leave any armor, retreating step by step, losing troops and losing their generals.

At the same time, the German army also launched the most fierce counterattack randomly, with machine guns firing violently, and artillery groups rumbling over the fire; grenades were flying everywhere, and the counterattacks of mortars, anti-tank guns, and rocket launchers were also densely affected; unwilling to be outdone, smashing on the Soviet positions like a storm, harvesting the lives of one Soviet army after another.

On the Soviet position, a large number of Soviet soldiers were killed or injured every second and every minute.

The ammunition and weapons and equipment they survived were either plundered by the large Ukrainian troops who assisted the German army in fighting, or were reclaimed by the surplus of their own troops and used to fight against Germany.

As the army's infantry and artillery groups were in full swing, the tank groups and armor groups of Germany and the Soviet Union were also fighting fiercely, with heavy casualties.

Tanks after tanks were discarded on the battlefield, with flames or thick smoke, or they were destroyed on the ground and turned into a pile of scrap iron.

This battle was followed by the elite troops of SS, such as the First Armored Division, SS SS Skeleton Armored Division, SS Fifth "Viking" Armored Division, SS Sixth "Northern" Mountain Division, and SS, etc., which successfully airdropped the C-47 and the C-5 transport fleet onto the battlefield, and began to enter the most intense battle and the most tragic fight.

However, the SS troops were extremely powerful. One division could defeat two to three divisions of the Soviet army. The top leaders of the Soviet army were shocked and stared at them in disbelief. They kept asking about the battle situation on the front line to prove the truth.

But no matter what, the Soviet army, which was coming in a fierce manner, changed after the SS and German aviation troops intervened, and retreated step by step, and even almost lost all the occupied areas of the Dnieper River they had just occupied.

The German army took less than 2 hours to drive most of the Soviet army away from most of the Dnieper River, allowing the German army to regain control of the Dnieper River area.

In this fierce and fierce battle, the bravery and desperate style of the Ukrainian troops were shocked and shocked the eyes of the German and Soviet troops, because they did not expect that the Ukrainians would fight to the death, and they were so fierce. They were no less tragic than the most elite troops of the two major powers.

Of course, it is also because of these that they have gained great benefits and interests, and they hope to become a large army formed by the Ukrainians in an independent country and fight against the Soviet army to make the German army successful in counterattack and regain the initiative on the verge of losing the Dnieper River.

"How could this happen! How could the Ukrainians suddenly be so strong, and they were so full of their efforts to assist the Germans in the battle?"

"What benefits did the Germans give to them? Aren't the Germans cruel to them in normal times? Why did the changes suddenly happen, and I don't know!"

After the news that the Soviet army was suddenly successfully counterattacked by the German army and almost lost all the areas of the Dnieper River that they had finally occupied, Comrade Stalin was furious and roared deafeningly in the Kremlin in Moscow.

Many people were silent about his anger and roar, afraid that the murder would suddenly fall from the sky to them, causing them to die, or even know how to die.

Because Comrade Stalin's blood-cleaning has always had an irremovable shadow on them, and it has been in their minds for a long time.

"No matter what the price is paid, we will never hide the Germans from the few remaining controlled areas of the Dnieper River! In addition, we will send our air force to fight against the German new fighter fleets; since our performance is not as good as theirs, we will use the number to kill them. I don't believe that their pilots will have more than us!"

Then Comrade Stalin issued a new combat order in anger.

All Soviet air commanders were bitter about Stalin's orders, because such orders were to fight against the German army to consume their vitality until the pilots on both sides were exhausted.

The Soviet army commanders, especially Marshal Zhukov, shook his head helplessly, sighed deeply, then remained silent, and more calmly commanded the evacuated Soviet troops to engage in defensive battles against the German army and quickly built defensive positions, delaying and fighting against the increasingly fierce attacks of the German and Ukrainian troops.

"I really didn't expect that these Germans would have so many new weapons and equipment to fight us. Even the troops used airborne operations, which was becoming increasingly difficult to deal with! It seems that if we do not have new weapons and equipment to resist these advanced weapons and equipment of the Germans, I'm afraid the future direction of this Eastern Front War will become increasingly unpredictable!"

After the Soviet army began to gradually resist the desperate counterattack of the German and Ukrainian troops, Marshal Zhukov stared at the scene in front of him, with thick smoke rolling, and war-torn tanks and armored cars turned into scrap iron one by one and were thrown aside. He felt an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness in his heart, which instantly surged into his heart, making him worry involuntarily.

Unfortunately, the other Soviet generals and commanders did not take his concerns seriously; because they were all panic by Comrade Stalin's anger and were trying to resist the German offensive without allowing the entire Dnieper River to be fully occupied by the German army.

However, the area of ​​the Dnieper River that they can control now is only a few small towns; such a small territory is of little use at all.

Because the Soviet air supremacy in the Dnieper River has been gradually seized by the German air force.

In other words, the German army can dispatch a large number of bombers anytime and anywhere to carry out 24-hour bombing attacks on the Soviet army and artillery units. Without air supremacy, the Soviet army will become a living target for bombing, which will easily cause heavy casualties.

When the Dnieper River was gradually fully controlled by the German army, it was inside Buckingham Palace, London, England.

King George VI of England also held the information from his hands with a serious expression.

Because the German army has been conducting large-scale V2 rocket missile attacks and large-scale air strikes on major British cities in recent times, which has seriously injured 38,000 people and killed 12,000 thousand people.

There were even more than 10,000 V2 and V1 rocket missiles, which crossed the British fighter fleet and intercepted balloons; they had already bombed the anti-aircraft gun nets and bombed to the center of London, causing many areas in London to be destroyed.

"This is a severe test of life and death. All the citizens of London and even the people of Britain are undergoing a huge test of war!"

When King George VI read the terrible casualties report, he also looked solemn and muttered to himself uneasy.

"If we and the US military have a way to destroy the German army's 'rocket launcher coast' in northwestern France and other places, then we can temporarily avoid the attacks of these German rocket missiles!"
