Chapter 1724： Aviation interception

The Americans dare not send their navy over. If the American navy comes over, it will definitely be bombarded by Germany. Therefore, the only thing the Americans can intercept is to use their aviation.

In the last time the Americans had a naval battle on Midway, it was revealed that they also had guided bombs, which were a kind of secret weapon, but the German Navy was absolutely not afraid.

It is impossible for their planes to fly into the air of one's own aircraft carrier formation, and they will be intercepted by a large number of fighters if they are 100 nautical miles away from their own formation.

The Americans must have prepared a large number of fighters and bombers. Instead of worrying about their attacks at any time, it is better to pass by now and attract them.

If you get to the waters of Greenland, if the opponent's air force is not dispatched, then one's own side will take off and blow up the military base in Greenland.

There must be many secret aviation bases in nearby Canada. Now the United States is as cunning as the Soviet Union. Before taking off the fighter planes, they could not find their base.

In those known aviation bases, there are only a few patrol planes, which are not their main force at all.

Canada, Labrador Peninsula. Goose Bay, Newfoundland, 14 kilometers northwest of Hape Valley, Goose Bay Air Force Base.

A few years ago, in accordance with the "base-for-warship" agreement between the United States and Britain, the U.S. military traded 50 old destroyers from World War I for some important British overseas bases, including the Goose Bay Air Force Base.

During the German invasion of the Soviet Union, the base here began to be used, and the runway on the airport was widened enough to take off B-29 class aircraft.

Now, from the outside, this base has only a few maritime patrol planes. However, in the forest not far from the base, a new runway has long been built.

"Hey, Roy, what are you thinking?" Although it was summer, the temperature in the forest was only about ten degrees Celsius. Wearing a flight jacket, it just didn't feel cold.

Leaning on a big tree with his back, looking at the white clouds floating in the sky above his head, flying squadron leader Roy heard a voice in his ear.

He turned his head, it was his comrade-in-arms, Cross, a new friend he met after changing to F4U.

Cross was very young, just like his former best friend Alcatel. For some reason, Alcatel appeared before Roy's eyes.

Roy has always remembered that when he was an instructor in the Soviet Union and piloting a P-39, he suddenly encountered a fleet of German fighters. Was that terrifying genius pilot Roy?

That action is too familiar.

Who would have thought that the former comrades-in-arms will now meet on the battlefield.

"Nothing." Roy said.

"The higher-level intelligence has come down. The German fleet has already been dispatched. I don't know when our orders will come down." Cross said lightly, turning his head to look at the fighter planes hidden in the woods.

The F-4U, the most advanced fighter like the P-51, can not only be used as a fighter jet, but also can carry two 1,000-pound bombs. If the ground crew starts to hang the bombs, it means they should set off.

This will be a tragic battle, I don't know how many people will die there.

Looking at his own fighter, Roy's heart is full of confidence. In the past, only the P-39 was too backward in performance and could not compete with the German fighters. Thinking of the thrilling time, Roy was very emotional. , If you had F4U at the time, it would definitely not be the result.

He believes in his own technology.

"Rumble, rumbling." At this moment, the sound of an engine rang in the distance.

A maritime reconnaissance plane took off from the Gusbeh base and flew towards the east sea. It seemed that the German navy was already approaching.

"Cross, your love, in a few days to give birth?" Roy asked Cross.

War is a heavy topic. People in peaceful areas can be treated as after-hours topics, while those who really enter war want to talk about life and family.

"There's still another week." Cross said, "I hope I'm a son, he's already named, he's grown up, and he will fly like me."

Cross and Roy continued to chat.

Suddenly, the sound of the assembly in the base rang.

Following the sound, both of them stood up and ran to the pilot preparation room, where there was a small conference room. It seemed that the combat order was about to be issued.

"The German fleet has been assembled in the Atlantic Ocean. Our aviation base on Greenland has taken off a maritime patrol plane to investigate the specific position of the German fleet. UU reading is now issuing specific operations. Mission." The flight captain's face was very serious: "The first squadron is responsible for cover, the second and third squadrons, mount bombs, dive attacks, and focus on the German aircraft carrier. God bless us!

F4U is a versatile fighter, which can either seize air superiority and attack. Now, they are going to attack the German aircraft carrier!

It is conceivable that a large number of German aircraft carriers will come surging like a tide. To attack the German aircraft carriers, they need to take great risks, but they have no choice.

"There may be ten or so brothers who will act with us. This battle is related to the national fortune of the United States. If the Germans occupy Greenland, they will land in Canada at any time and threaten the United States."

Needless to say, everyone is also very clear in their hearts that to defend the United States, we must start with the defense of Greenland.

Although at the White House meeting, the fatal blow was set when the Germans returned home, if the Germans swaggered over without any interception, this would make the Germans suspicious.

Necessary interception is needed, and for the troops they are sent out, the outcome seems to be doomed.

Many times, knowing that they are dead, they must fight. This is their sacred mission. At the beginning, they risked their lives and went to bomb the island nation's mainland, and they have become a well-known hero in the United States.

And now, they are all like this, knowing that the German aircraft carrier formation is very strong, they must bravely bomb!

There was some mood swings on Cross's face. He seemed to have a premonition. At the same time, beside him, Roy's expression was very natural.

Roy has escaped several times. He believes that the **** of luck will always look after him. He can only be full of fighting spirit.
