Chapter 788： Air supremacy (seeking monthly ticket)

"General, our air raid today is very difficult. The four waves of fleets dispatched were all ambushed by the British Royal Air Force. So far, we have lost 28 fighter jets and 37 bombers. frame." A major general reported to Lieutenant General Zeckert. The sudden counterattack launched by the Royal Air Force caught the German Army Air Force by surprise.

Lieutenant General Zeckert frowned tightly, and the British would launch a counterattack at this time, which was completely beyond his expectations. After all, in the previous actions, the British kept silent and did not intend to fight back. Now, in just half a day, they have lost more than half of the air wing. Such a loss is undoubtedly unbearable for the German Army Air Force.

"What are the British doing? Don't they think they can confront us and want to compete with us for air supremacy?" Lieutenant General Zeckert said. Indeed, the strange behavior of the British surprised him very much.

"General, perhaps our previous bombing of the British Army caused heavy losses to the British. Therefore, the British Air Force can't sit still!" Another general said.

Lieutenant General Zeckert nodded, and indeed did not rule out this possibility. However, regardless of whether the British Air Force participates in combat or not, their intended combat objectives will not change in any way.

"Everyone, since the British want to compete with us for air supremacy, let's fight for air supremacy with them! The army's attack on Canterbury will soon begin. We must ensure that the The mastery of air supremacy in this piece of sky!" Lieutenant General Zeckert said.

Although, the Army Air Corps will soon become an independent service. However, at least at this stage they are still subordinate to the Army. For the requirements of the Army, the Army Air Force must fully support it. Otherwise, if there is a problem with the battle against Britain this time, the consequences will be unbearable to anyone. Maybe even Lieutenant General Zeckert, the new military commander who is about to become the commander of the Air Force, can't afford it. Therefore, everyone attaches great importance to this battle.

"Yes, General!" Everyone replied. Everyone is very clear that this battle is directly related to their personal fate. If the Army Air Corps performed well in this battle, they would all be promoted once the Air Force was established. If the performance is not good enough, then any accident may happen.

"General, according to the reports of the pilots, the British Air Force is equipped with a new type of fighter. The performance is very good, although it is slightly inferior to our F2 fighter. But overall, it is still a very good fighter. In air combat, we Many fighter jets were shot down by this type of British fighter jets!" The leader of the 3rd Fighter Wing reported.

"A new type of fighter jet? No wonder the British don't want to be a coward. It turns out that they are equipped with a new type of fighter jet, so they think they can fight us?" Lieutenant General Zeckert sneered.

With the strong support of Qin Tian, ​​Germany's aviation manufacturing industry has always been ahead of the world. This allowed German pilots to fly the most advanced aircraft and ravage pilots from other countries after the war broke out. However, other countries are catching up. But overall, there is still a big gap compared with Germany's advanced aircraft.

"General, even if the British are equipped with new fighter jets, they cannot be our opponents. After all, our F2 fighter jets still have a lot of advantages. In addition, the quality of our pilots is far stronger than that of the British. The reason for the heavy losses this time is that they were ambushed by the British. In the case of a sudden attack, our pilots were caught off guard. Otherwise, the British would never have occupied much Cheap!" said the captain of the 4th Bomber Wing.

Lieutenant General Zeckert nodded. He is also very confident in the combat effectiveness of the Army Air Force.

"I know that this failure was nothing more than an accident. However, it also reflected a lot of problems. Why are our pilots so careless? This is something that shouldn't happen on the battlefield. "Lieutenant General Zeckert said.

The other generals of the German Army Air Force were a little embarrassed. As Germany continued to gain victories in the war, the pilots of the Army Air Corps gradually developed a feeling of pride and complacency, as if they were number one in the world.

"General, we will urge the officers and soldiers below to prevent them from making such mistakes again!"

Lieutenant General Zeckert did not intend to continue to pursue this point, so he did not hold on to it.

"Everyone knows that His Majesty the Emperor has always attached great importance to the aviation team. Therefore, I think he should know that we have failed this time. If we can't quickly turn the tide of the battle and win, it will cause harm to His Majesty the Emperor. Everyone must be very clear about the bad impression." Lieutenant General Zeckert continued.

Suddenly, everyone's heart tightened. Although the emperor of the empire has just succeeded to the throne, his prestige in the country and the army is very high, and almost no one will oppose him. Once he has a bad impression of the aviation team, the consequences can be imagined. At that time, I am afraid that everyone's future will be affected.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Lieutenant General Zeckert knew that his goal of standing up had been achieved. He was transferred from the Army to the Army Air Force, which made the generals of the Army Air Force feel somewhat conflicted. In order to ensure the victory of the war, although the generals of these Army Air Forces will not trip him up. However, there will be certain problems. It is undoubtedly a good thing to be able to use this incident to beat these guys.

"Everyone, how can we gain air supremacy on the battlefield, do you have any suggestions for this?" Lieutenant General Zeckert asked.

"General, for now, there is only one way for us to gain air supremacy, and that is to destroy the British Air Force! Especially those advanced fighter jets of the British Air Force must be completely wiped out. After that, the British will no longer be able to compete with us in the sky." We have competed. The air supremacy of the British Isles will also belong to us!" said the captain of the 3rd Fighter Wing.

Lieutenant General Zeckert nodded, and he thought so too. However, how to implement it will require further discussion.
