.In order to intercept the Ming army aircraft group, under the order of Joseph, the Holy Roman Empire Air Force dispatched 521 aircraft
"Falcon" type, forty-eight
Eagle and 219
"Albatross" fighter jet. original
The "Albatross" is no longer suitable for participating in large-scale air battles, because
"Falcon" style and
The total monthly output of "Eagle" fighter jets is only 240, which can only allow the former to continue to fight.
There were 1,758 Ming army fighter planes participating in the air raid on March 28.
There are 922 Hercules bombers,
There are three hundred and eight Black-footed Albatross, and
The number of "Flamingos" reached 528. If you let
"Black-footed albatross" only collects
"Albatross" words, then all
The "Flamingo" can be used to deal with those two enemy aircraft with advanced performance. In air combat, even if the Ming army's fighter planes were equipped with radios, they would not be able to assign tasks so clearly. What's more, air combat is fast and complex, and they can only adapt to the situation.
One thing is certain, that is, whether it is the opponent's old fighter or a new fighter, its maximum ceiling is lower than that of all combat aircraft of the Ming Army.
The previous two air battles were both near Prague. The Ming bombers had just dropped their bombs and were discovered by enemy planes before they could even raise their altitude.
now
The "Hercules" bomber flies at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, and the pilot wears an oxygen mask. Although the pilots of the Holy Roman Empire Air Force also have the same equipment, the overall performance is very different.
More importantly, if you climb rashly to an altitude close to the maximum ceiling, the engine power will be greatly reduced due to air intake.
If necessary,
The "Hercules" bomber can continue to climb to ensure its own safety. Except for those with poor fighting performance
In addition to the "Black-footed Albatross" responsible for protecting bomber formations, all
The "Flamingos" are all involved in mid-altitude air combat, and they are not afraid of close combat.
528vs788! The Holy Roman Empire Air Force has a numerical advantage of nearly one and a half times! However driving
The Ming army pilots of the "Flamingo" were not afraid because the performance of their vehicles was excellent enough.
So what if we are outnumbered? What to deal with is a group of stubborn and defeated generals! Since he came to seek death on his own initiative, it would just help them!
Seeing that the number of enemy aircraft facing them was much smaller than their own, the pilots of the Holy Roman Empire Air Force no longer worried.
Even if the Yellow-skinned Monkey fighter jet has excellent performance, it should not be able to withstand our own numerical advantage. As long as you seize the opportunity, you can definitely shoot them all down!
There is no need for hesitation and hesitation, the two engines are flying head-on, and there is no time for the pilot to think about anything else. As long as the ceiling of the fighter plane allows, then there is one tactic - hit whatever you catch!
After a knightly charge to the death,
The "Flamingo" used cannon and machine guns to directly shoot down nearly 300 enemy aircraft.
"Falcon" style and
The "Eagle" fighter jet was hampered by the 22mm cannon, and the stuck pilot couldn't help but curse.
This kind of junk weapon with substandard quality directly caused them to lose hundreds of battle results in one round, and also lost hundreds of fighter planes.
shot down
There are less than fifty "Flamingos", and the cavalry brigade on the ground has been notified before, asking them to help search for the parachuting pilot.
different from clumsy
After the "Black-footed Albatross" is dislocated, it must fly two to three hundred meters to complete the turn.
The turning radius of the "Flamingo" is very small, much smaller than
"Black-footed albatross" is nothing more than
The "Albatross" is just a little bigger, but it is completely within the range acceptable to pilots. From a practical point of view,
The turning radius of the "Flamingo" is the same as
The "Falcon" style is almost the same.
The Eagle twin-engine heavy fighter is smaller. This means that you are more mobile during combat and can more easily seize the position and opportunity to fire first.
Best for fighting
On the contrary, because the body structure of "Albatross" was too fragile, there was not much left after the first round.
If the strength of the machine body cannot be guaranteed, then there is no way to talk about other aspects, because weapons with extremely low battlefield survivability rates will basically not survive until the end...
The "Flamingo" does not need to worry about shells or bullets hitting the propeller when firing, because the airborne weapons are installed at the axis of the nose, similar to the P-39
The "Flying Snake" fighter plane is similar. If the weapon and propeller do not interfere with each other, it means that the pilot can pour ammunition at the target as he wishes as long as he gets the opportunity to fire.
And the experienced Ming army pilots soon knew
The "Eagle" is the least maneuverable fighter in the opponent's lineup, so they all use their maneuverability advantages to bite the opponent hard.
The "Flamingo" has a large ceiling, strong firepower, and good maneuverability. It immediately became an ideal weapon in combat.
The "Eagle"-style natural enemy nemesis makes the latter extremely uncomfortable.
The "Eagle" fighter jet is actually a weapon used to deal with Ming army bombers. However, the current height of the Ming army bomber formation makes
The "Eagle" style is out of reach. It is possible to fire while climbing, but if you do so, the twin-engine fighter jets you are dealing with will dive down and hit them head-on.
Forty-eight aircraft participated in the battle
"Eagle" Quilt
The "Flamingos" shot down twenty-one, and the remaining twenty-seven were killed while climbing and trying to sneak attack the belly of the Ming bomber.
The "Black-footed Albatross" was destroyed. In less than half an hour, the Holy Roman Empire air force fleet became a numerically disadvantaged party.
Of the 788 fighters that originally participated in the war, less than 100 remained, and in the end they had no choice but to flee for their lives in despair.
In this battle, including the forced landing there due to injuries and the forced return, the Ming army lost ninety-five fighter jets.
Fortunately, no bombers were lost, so the fighter force escorted them successfully. Due to the failure of the interception, Prague was attacked by nearly a thousand aircraft for the second time
Carpet bombing of “Hercules.” This news shocked Crown Prince Joseph and made him furious.
However, considering that the Imperial Space has done its best and nearly 700 fighters were lost in this battle, it is difficult for Joseph to get angry with them.
The responsibility for the air raid on Prague can only be blamed on the Russian troops who had previously been disadvantaged in fighting in the mountains!
The commander of this force was Nikolai, the grandson of Alexei I, who had previously returned to Leopold!
As the third tsar who submitted to the Holy Roman Empire, Nicholas only had a standing army of 10,000.
Most of the remaining serfs are temporarily mobilized serfs. How much combat effectiveness can you expect from them?
However, Crown Prince Joseph believed that this move was completely feasible, and firmly believed that every Russian was a born warrior.
Especially when facing the yellow-skinned monkey, it will arouse the instinctive fighting spirit! Of course, these were just big words to motivate the Russian troops, and Nikolay forgot them after hearing them.
Fortunately, Crown Prince Joseph is not a man of paper talks. He knows that the Russian troops are poorly trained and poorly equipped.
Simply prevent them from fighting in the field and directly station them in the Sudeten Mountains and the Western Carpathians. I plan to wait for a while and wait for an opportunity to seriously injure the yellow-skinned monkey who is trying to invade Bohemia.
However, planning is one thing, actual combat is another. Nicholas, who looked up to others, ordered all ministries to enter the mountains and focus on guarding various mountain passes, especially mountain roads.
Where the road passes through the mountain pass, it will be cut off, a large number of mines will be laid, and heavy troops will be deployed on the mountains on both sides.
Try to ambush the invading enemy and then seize their weapons and supplies to increase your own combat effectiveness. The idea was good, the tactics were correct, and there were no obvious omissions in the plan.
But the Russian troops faced the heavily armed Ming Dynasty King Division, who was not afraid of the opponent's small moves at all.
There are aerial gunships and helicopters in the sky, and armored bulldozers are on the ground clearing the way. You dig a trench and I'll fill it for you!
If you lay mine, I will detonate it for you! If you want to ambush me, I'll beat you into a hornet's nest first! In order to ensure a smooth breakthrough through the Sudeten Mountain Pass, the Ming Dynasty King's Division would let the mechanized infantry brigade clear the way.
This kind of combat unit not only has a large number of tanks, but also carries a large number of infantry. The mechanized infantry brigade itself is a heavily armed infantry brigade.
exist
Under the cover of fire from "air gunships" and helicopters, the infantry will storm the commanding heights on both sides of the mountain pass. But it will not cause excessive casualties. Before the official attack,
The "Black-footed Albatross" will drop cluster bombs! If the opponent can carry it, carry it. If he can't, he can only run away or die on the spot!
The hills on both sides of the mountain pass just located in the offensive corridor are usually attacked by hundreds of cluster bombs and petrol bombs.
After the bomb is dropped, the helicopter will fly at low altitude to search for suspicious targets. Once there is counterattack, flares will be dropped immediately.
After the aerial gunboat sees the location of the signal flare, it will immediately carry out circling strafing. At the same time, ground troops used heavy artillery and rocket launchers to cover the suspicious areas with fire.
Not to mention a tree on the top of the mountain, even a stone will be broken into several pieces by artillery shells, bullets, and bombs... The holes dug by the tenacious Russian troops will finally come in use.
After the yellow-skinned monkeys take over the surface, they can still fight in the tunnels. But after helicopters transported infantry to seize the top of the mountain, this trick became less effective.
The King of Ming Dynasty was the ancestor of counter-guerrilla warfare, and he had practiced underground warfare decades ago. How to deal with the enemies in the cave, the soldiers of the King's Division have everything at their fingertips.
I can't do anything else.
If "whack-a-mole" doesn't work, you can just demobilize and go farming. The task of the road-opening troops is to seize the mountain pass and ensure the smooth passage of the large forces.
As for clearing out the Rakshasa soldiers inside, that is a dispensable secondary task. Counterguerrillas are a waste of time, and coalition forces are just racing against time.
Therefore, the Ming army only needs to seize the mountain pass. As for the enemies in the nearby mountains, they can temporarily let them go.
For the Russian troops, the process and results of this blocking are unacceptable. Even if a brigade with a total of 10,000 people is arranged on both sides of the mountain pass, they will be responsible for stopping the yellow-skinned monkeys.
Unexpectedly, in the first hour of the war, facing the enemy's stormy attack, they would lose nearly 30% of their troops.
If an aerial bomb falls, a platoon of soldiers will be killed or injured. The consequences of the explosion of hundreds of aerial bombs can be imagined.
The most terrifying thing was the rockets fired by the yellow-skinned monkeys. Hundreds of them fell at the same time. The scene was like a rain of steel and fire.
One side of the mountain is washed away, and even the top of the mountain may be shortened by half a meter. After discovering the yellow-skinned monkey's attempt, the Russian troops near the battlefield began to continuously send reinforcements to the mountain pass.
They did not dare to act rashly during the day, so reinforcement operations could only be carried out at night, but it was extremely difficult to seize the mountain pass that had been occupied by the opponent.
The Ming army soldiers used machine guns to break all the trees blocking the view on the ridge, and the air force set fire to all the trees on both sides with gasoline bombs.
After the fire was extinguished, all that was left in the mountain pass area with dense vegetation were bare mountains, just like plucked poultry.
This trick is the same as using a Juehu net to fish - leaving no future troubles! The Rakshasa soldiers have begun to dig holes in the ground, and the Ming Dynasty Master no longer needs to be a gentleman.
As long as the slope is not too steep, tanks are driven up to make temporary bunkers to defend against sneak attacks by Rakshasa soldiers.
If the tank collapses an area when it drives up the mountain, it means that this trick really works. The sneak attacks launched by the Russian troops at night have been repeatedly frustrated by the joint stranglehold of machine guns and tank guns.
The battlefield was quiet during the day, and apart from the slowly passing coalition convoy, not a single Rakshasa soldier could be seen.
At night, both sides came and went, shouting and killing, and artillery fire. It was very lively.
In addition to deploying tanks on the top of the mountain, the Ming army also built a helicopter landing platform to facilitate the acquisition of supplies.
Hundreds of helicopters fly in and out of the mountain pass every day, on the one hand to transport supplies and the wounded, and on the other hand to search for targets.
This further strengthened the Ming army's control over the mountain pass and ensured the smooth implementation of the plan to attack Prague.
Just to recapture the mountain pass, Nicholas lost nearly 20,000 people. This was only the casualty of five days of fighting.
According to this casualty rate, all Russian troops can only hold on for a hundred days, which is just over three months.
The third army commanded by Lu Xuecheng was responsible for the siege of Prague. This army was very familiar with this road.
According to the words of Commander-in-Chief Zhang Huangyan: Your army is familiar with that area, don't let me down! The actual situation was also the same. It took the Third Army only three days to invade the hinterland of Bohemia.
Bohemia is surrounded by mountainous areas on the outside and plains on the inside, similar to the terrain of Sichuan. Once entering its hinterland, the flat terrain is very conducive to the deployment and advancement of armored forces.
After passing the mountain pass, the Third Army felt like a fish in water and quickly approached Prague, the important town of the Holy Roman Empire.
This time I can
"Revisiting the old place" naturally made the whole army extremely happy. Last time, Prague was besieged in May, but this time it was advanced to the end of March.
This means that before summer comes, everyone should have more than a month to attack the city. If the defenders in the city can still hold on until summer comes, Lu Xuecheng will be impressed!
It's a pity...the sky didn't work out as planned! On March 27, the Ming Air Force bombed Prague for the first time. The city had been bombed three times before April.
The only reason we were not bombed was that it rained all over Bohemia that day! However, Lu Xuecheng believed that even if the city was bombed fifteen times a month, the defenders might not be able to bear it!
