Chapter 808

"Descent height! Turn on the parachute indicator and let the people behind prepare to parachute In the cockpit, a German pilot said loudly to his co pilot.

The co pilot next to him immediately nodded, then reached out and pulled a switch on his head from the off position to the on position. The plane is constantly bumping. Outside the bright driving glass, you can see dense German planes flying in the sky.

In addition to training, they rarely perform airborne missions in broad daylight. Generally, in order to reduce the casualties of paratroopers, they fly at night most of the time. This time, for the first time, they adopted a bold airborne during the day, which was quite unexpected.

However, from the beginning, it was very surprising - for example, in broad daylight, they flew over the actual control line of the Soviet and German armies, and then they did not encounter large-scale shelling. It was really puzzling.

"Ready to jump!" See the light has been green, the aircraft cabin waiting for this moment German paratrooper battalion commander borol loudly remind his men. They are now the world's most powerful paratroopers, with the world's richest airborne experience and ground combat experience.

At night, they could all gather together in the shortest time, let alone in such a bright day. The cabin door was opened by borol's hand, and the cold wind poured into the cabin from the outside. All the people couldn't help but squint their eyes, and the shouts of checking the parachute equipment came one after another.

"All right! Gentlemen! No matter what happened last night, now it's our turn to play Borol took a look at his men, and did not deliberately raise his voice. After that, he patted Donna on the shoulder and hung his parachute hook on a bar inside the cabin.

"Damanhur!" When they jumped out of the cabin, borol yelled out the slogan of paratroopers, which was the most sad place for them, and also the place where they experienced the test of fire and became airborne demons. Now this place is their faith, the iron will they long to inherit.

Then he saw the whole sky, and saw countless people like him who jumped out of the plane and were pulled by parachutes and hung in the air. What made him even more excited was that he saw a huge glider carrying a paratrooper chariot rushing down in a distant place. This kind of spectacular scene is really hard to see at ordinary times.

Two escorting fw-190d fighter planes dived at top speed and fired fiercely at a Soviet antiaircraft gun which was firing. The dense shells made the antiaircraft gun position white smoke, and finally the white smoke dispersed. There had become a pile of scrap iron and lying corpses.

What shocked borol even more was that a new type of helicopter was hovering around the battlefield. It might be too much to say that it was a new type, because it was an improved Odin helicopter. However, this kind of helicopter had more powerful firepower than Odin, with rocket launchers on both sides, two large caliber machine guns on the nose and heavy machine guns on the side. The whole plane is like a gunboat flying up, pouring ammunition everywhere over the battlefield.

These planes are evading all around. It seems that they have just swept the whole area. Now the German Paratroopers are parachuting, so they are evading for safety, but they still leave a few hovering over the woods.

It seems that the suppression of the ground is mainly due to the contributions of these planes. In order to ensure that the paratroopers will not have too many casualties in the process of parachuting, the German army really spent a lot of money this time. It not only used the special forces, but also produced a set of classic special forces assault tactics from later generations.

Just hidden on the ground, the German special forces indicated the attack target with colored smoke bombs. First, stuka-2 attack aircraft carried out a large-scale attack, and then used helicopters to eliminate the target. The whole process led to the loss of 14 stuka-2 attack aircraft and the downfall of 17 helicopters, The Soviet anti-aircraft gun positions and garrison sites near the German airborne area were basically eliminated.

If the German special forces responsible for clearing the Soviet anti-aircraft gun positions had not killed some large caliber anti-aircraft gun positions last night, today's German air strikes and attacks would have paid a heavier price.

In order to speed up the paratroopers' airborne delivery, the German army used a large number of gliders, including some big guys who could carry 30 soldiers. These gliders were launched on the battlefield before the paratroopers, and now they have established defensive positions on the ground. General stutton, the paratrooper commander, wanted to make the battlefield more chaotic, because he felt that his soldiers were better adapted to the chaotic fighting situation than the enemy, so he used the same trick he used in Holland and Belgium.

He dropped a large number of dummies with incendiary devices and dropped them out of the battlefield. These airborne dummies had the same effect as they had in those days. They created a lot of confusion and made the Soviets overestimate the scale of the airborne. At one time, there were rumors in the Soviet Union that the German army had occupied Stalingrad and burned almost half of the Caucasus.

The extremely chaotic scene also caused a lot of trouble for the German army. Two paratroopers just hit the propeller of a helicopter because of the wind direction. The cruel picture scared all the paratroopers who saw this scene. A plane crashed and seven people died. The incident led the German army to ban the use of helicopters in the parachute area, and Stuart even submitted a detailed description of the incident.

The German army was in chaos because of the cooperation of multiple arms, and the Soviet army was also in chaos because of all kinds of artificial chaos. They did not know what the German army was doing. Because of the communication confusion and mutual suspicion, they did not even get the exact report on the scale of German Paratroopers. Many barracks and reserve assembly areas in the rear were destroyed by special forces guided attack planes and helicopters, and the rest were hard to organize, but collapsed again under the attack of German Paratroopers. These "temporary workers" of the Red Army in the rear of the Soviet Union, who can still delay the attack of some German Paratroopers by issuing an alarm, are just deceiving themselves to expect them to do something under such circumstances. These Soviet second-line troops finally began to fight back, only to find that German Paratroopers were everywhere, the telephone lines were cut off, and the radio channels were full of reports from German troops. The main forces have already attacked each other and are in a mess. They have no ability to control the paratroopers behind them. The German armored forces in the front have begun to gather. Everyone knows what will happen next. It is a question that all the Soviet commanders on the front line want to know who did harm to them. But now they bombarded each other, and no one believed each other's explanation. Some people saw the 166 division artillery shelling the 160 division positions first, and then the 160 division artillery began to fight back. Some people heard that the 160 division sent people to attack the ammunition supply base, which led to a serious explosion there. Now there are different versions, and no one knows what the truth is like. The 160th division asked for help from the friendly forces on the other side, saying that the soldiers of the 166th division attacked the ammunition supply base, and they wanted to recapture it, but the other side bombed it. Then their positions were attacked and shelled by the 166 division. As a result, the friendly forces were suspicious. They sent someone to have a look and found that the 166 division was attacking the defensive position of the 160 division. The 166 division contacted the friendly forces on the other side and informed the 160 division about the bombing of the armory and shelling of the friendly forces. Then he took the same people to the position to have a look at the scene and obtained the support of the friendly forces. So the scale of the civil war on the Soviet front began to expand to the point that the German army could not believe it. In some areas, tanks were even used to attack their allies like the German army. Soon rokosovsky received two completely different reports from the front-line forces. One was about the defection of the 166 division, and the other was about the defection of the 160 division. As soon as rokosowski saw these two telegrams, he knew that his peripheral defense was completely finished. It didn't take a second for the Soviet general to see the German plan. To put it bluntly, no one defected or defected at all. It was the German who did everything. If as expected, the German used a small team to insert into the middle of the two forces, first fired on one side, and then fired on the other side, so the two forces began to fight inexplicably. In fact, things were similar to what he had expected, but the way the German army used was more complicated and fanciful. The main purpose of the German army was to paralyze the Soviet anti-aircraft gun defense network, so a special unit attacked the main position of the Soviet anti-aircraft gun and occupied it. In the process of occupation, they found a hidden Soviet ammunition depot, so they moved their hands directly. As a result, they were found by a guard patrol of the 160th division in the process of operation, and the two sides immediately launched a fierce battle. The German army had no choice but to blow up the ammunition depot, which directly caused the idea of the 166 division not far away. So another interpenetrating force, who was responsible for causing internal strife in the Soviet army, inadvertently connected the whole thing. They were only responsible for making trouble between the two Soviet forces, but they did not expect to successfully complete the task, and expanded the incident to the exaggeration of the two armies' fighting. As for the first round of 122 mm howitzers that landed on the Soviet positions, they were the weapons captured by the German forces, and they were only a small means to frame each othe
