Seeing that Messerschmitt quickly dispersed in all directions, Zhou Zhihan ordered the 30 fighter jets not to continue chasing, shrink the lineup, and first form a Lufber circle defensive formation for stability. Don't fall into the Germans' trick of diverting the tiger away from the mountain. After chasing the enemy, they will be surrounded by the enemy. .
Upon hearing the order, all fighter jets immediately retracted to defend, forming a three-dimensional Lufber circle defense formation to guard the sky above the beach.
Zhou Zhihan knew that the plan of the Royal Air Force Headquarters to frighten the German army could no longer be implemented. The Luftwaffe's southward operation of "Paula" might be false information, or the German army did not send most of its troops south to carry out "Paula" operation.
At present, we can only change the combat plan, from active attack to active defense.
Zhou Zhihan now only hopes that the Allied ships on the sea can send this news back to the country, and the Royal Air Force headquarters quickly sends fighter jets to assist.
Thinking of letting the pilots of 303 and 304 who were not on combat missions drink and have a party last night, Zhou Zhihan felt that he was not mature enough.
"Woo..."
The Stuka bombers of the Luftwaffe screamed and appeared from the sky one after another. They changed their previous combat plan of mainly bombing the Allied forces on the beach, and attacked the withdrawing ships and the rows of Allied soldiers extending from the shore to the deep water area.
Immediately afterwards, more than forty Destroyer Bf 110s flying behind the Stuka bombers appeared above the Stuka to provide close fire support.
These Destroyers are equipped with bombs on their bellies and wings. They can launch bombings on the ground and sea, and can also provide fire support for the Reapers in the air.
Above the Destroyer were the Mei-style Bf 109 fighter jets of the 51st and 52nd Squadrons of the JG52 Wing. One by one, their yellow noses appeared from high altitude, looking down at the earth. They were extremely proud, and the cold muzzles were in the rising sky. The sun was full of murderous intent, and their appearance immediately caused the German fighter-bomber force to present a three-dimensional offensive formation.
With the strong support of Destroyer and Emily, the Death Stuka began to adjust and prepare to drop bombs. These bombers have ten mounting points on their belly, each of which can mount a 50-kilogram bomb.
Once more than a hundred Reapers are allowed to drop bombs calmly, the ships in this area of the sea will be destroyed.
Zhou Zhihan took a breath of air. Adolf Garand was really powerful. In a short period of time, he raised the combat strength of the German Air Force to a higher level and formed a three-dimensional combat lineup. With the God of Death as the fulcrum, he launched a frenzy against allied ships. Indiscriminate bombing, the Bf 110 Destroyer provided close fire support for the Reaper, Messerschmitt implemented high-altitude interception, and the aerial trinity combat strike was initially formed.
Obviously, all the Allied pilots had never seen this kind of trinity combat system, and they were all shocked. They didn't know how to crack it when they saw it for the first time. Now they can only wait for the commander-in-chief to make a response.
Zhou Zhihan was at a loss what to do about this. The powerful German Air Force was not comparable to that of the Japanese Air Force. The sudden appearance of this almost era-defining lineup caught him off guard.
What's more, the number of Luftwaffe fighters is more than three times that of the British army. The trinity's lineup is huge and very deep and flexible. It provides fire support to each other at low, medium and high altitudes. If you make a slight mistake in your own response method, you may not be able to defeat the 80 Allied forces. An elite may be wiped out.
Zhou Zhihan didn't notice that his forehead was sweating. He looked into the distance with piercing eyes, and his heart moved. This meant that Adolf Galland must be commanding from a high altitude.
Find Adolf Galand, shoot him down, and disintegrate the aerial trinity strike formation he invented.
Zhou Zhihan looked around for Adolf Galland, but there were too many enemy planes coming from all directions, and he would not be able to find Mustache for a while.
"Bang bang bang..."
At this time, the British fleet also discovered the incoming German bombers. The anti-aircraft guns on the escorting warships immediately fired into the air with intensive defensive firepower. The clouds of smoke from the exploding shells burst into fireworks around the Death bomber, dazzling in the sky.
"Tu tu tu tu..."
Around the beach, Allied anti-aircraft gun positions also fired intensively, bursting into flames in the air.
Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the 23 Messerschmitts that had just scattered and fled immediately launched a counterattack, attacking the 30 Spitfires and Hurricanes that formed the Lufber circle defensive formation.
Immediately afterwards, the Messerschmitts of the 51st Squadron and the 52nd Squadron came from the air and immediately launched fire suppression on the Allied anti-aircraft gun positions and the ship's anti-aircraft artillery. Wherever their cannons touched, they would definitely trigger fire. If there is a bloody storm, especially the soldiers lining up in the sea waiting to board the ship, a Messerschmitt dive will leave a long blood wave hundreds of meters away on the sea.
The soldiers waiting to board the ship were numb. They had hope of living if they could board the ship. Those who stayed would either become dead corpses or become prisoners of the Germans and become the walking dead.
After successfully suppressing the ground artillery fire, the 51st and 52nd Squadrons detached more than a dozen fighter jets to assist the first 23 Messerschmitts to attack the 30 Spitfires and Hurricanes.
Zhou Zhihan watched the battle below from high in the sky, constantly looking for countermeasures in his mind.
30 Royal Fighters were in a bitter battle.
Five kilometers away, the 9th and 21st squadrons of the JG52 wing were standing still. The personnel of these two squadrons were dissatisfied with only 20 fighter planes. However, they had been standing still. As mobile units, they were ready to support various battlefields at any time.
Suddenly, the two squadrons of the JG51 wing were divided into two places, one on the left and one on the right to outflank the beach. It was obvious that the German commander knew that the Royal Air Force must have a reserve force that did not show up. These two squadrons just took the retreat and forced the British to attack. Jun showed off all his wealth.
Ten kilometers away, the 60 fighter jets of the Condor Legion were also hovering at high altitudes, standing still. Adolf Garland should be among them, and he never showed up.
Zhou Zhihan's back was almost soaked with sweat. The German Air Force had more than one hundred Reaper Stukas, more than forty Bf110 Destroyers, plus more than one hundred and forty invincible Bf 109 Messerschmitts. Let his eighty fighter jets fight.
"Fighters 1-15 broke away from the Lufber circle defensive formation and went to attack the German Stuka bombers. Remember that you are just feinting. We just want to attract the Messerschmitts in the air to come down and expose the destroyers.
Then No. 41-50 fighters dived from the air to attack the Destroyers, quickly shooting down several Bf 110 Destroyers and destroying their fire support for the Stuka bombers.
The 51st and 52nd Germans will definitely besiege the 41st-50th fighters. You should immediately form a Lufber circle defensive formation, only defending but not attacking.
In this way, our ground anti-aircraft fire can be released to pose a threat to the Stuka bombers. Our purpose is to attract one of the 9th and 21st squadrons of the JG52 Wing in the air.
When Fighters No. 41-50 were besieged, Fighters No. 51-60 immediately appeared and attacked the Death God Stuka with all their strength, drawing down another squadron of the JG52 Wing.
You have 50 fighter jets here and must fight to the death until I find a way to find the enemy's commander and shoot him down to break this three-dimensional offensive formation.
The remaining 30 fighter jets are still ambushing in the air. They are not allowed to act rashly without my order, because our biggest opponent, the Vulture Legion, is not far away.
I judge that when they think all our troops are exhausted, they will kill them from high altitude. "
"yes!"
Several squadron leaders responded immediately.
All the pilots did not know the seriousness of the situation until now. They did not expect that there were nearly a hundred Messerschmitts hidden in the sky that could almost be seen at a glance. It was really incredible.
