Plymouth.
After a tense day of construction, an air base next to the port of Plymouth has begun to take shape.
Around the base, there are more than 20 anti-aircraft guns guarding the sky. At the same time, the main body of the base is the runway in the middle.
Use a roller to flatten the field directly, and then a special runway spliced with steel plates.
How to quickly build a forward base under war conditions is a topic for German technicians. It takes a week to lay it with concrete, while the German army advances very fast. In a week, the newly built runway may be useless.
Therefore, after careful research, German technicians have manufactured this kind of runway made of steel plate, which is called "PSP perforated steel plate runway".
This kind of steel plate is not a whole piece, but is spliced by countless small pieces.
Each steel plate is about 6mm thick. It is about 90cm long and 60cm wide and rectangular. The four sides of the rectangle have punched hooks or holes. The whole airport is connected with each other piece by piece by these hooks and holes.
In order to improve the strength of the steel plate, evenly distributed reinforcing ribs and reinforcing holes are punched on the steel plate, and the rib height is 10mm.
Therefore, the runway is not completely flat. There will be bumps from time to time when the aircraft taxis on the runway. However, at least it can quickly solve the problem of whether there is a problem or not!
After all, in order to prevent the British air force from taking off, they directly threw shrapnel at their air base. Germany can't sacrifice engineers to demine, which will become a restricted area in the future.
The base here is being built rapidly. At the same time, last night, the 27th combat aviation regiment of Germany's third aviation team transferred here. Their aircraft are all the same fw190, which is the flight force fully equipped with fw190 in the whole German air force. Almost all the others are mixed with BF109 and fw190.
At this time, just after dawn, the German air force, which transferred to the British mainland, began to go out.
Standing in front of his plane, Lieutenant Heinz Barr looked at the ground crew.
"Captain, the plane has been maintained. It is full of fuel and ammunition. It can take off at any time." The ground crew on one side said.
The ground crew came by boat. They bumped all the way at sea. When they got here, they didn't rest. They continued to fight and complete the maintenance of the aircraft. Now, each of them has red eyes.
"Hard work." Heinz said, stepped into his cockpit, closed the hatch cover and started the engine with the help of the ground service.
The front 1800 horsepower high thrust engine roared. After checking various instrument data, Heinz released the brake.
"Squadron 3, let's take off. From today on, the sky over Great Britain is our airspace!" Heinz shouted on the radio.
The plane began to fly forward, and the wheels bumped on the steel runway constantly. With the acceleration of speed, this bumping became the bumping of the whole aircraft. This is also the weakness of the steel runway. Fortunately, it is acceptable.
It's like sitting on a boat floating in the waves. Well, it's very comfortable.
Relying on the powerful engine, the speed quickly got up, gently pulled the pull rod, and Heinz took off.
Behind him, fw190 took off. Although there is no war report yet, it is obvious that the British will not be willing to lose. Today, a large-scale air battle will break out on the British island.
Although fw190 has a considerable range, it is still beneficial to deploy to the front-line base. For example, taking off from here and directly over Britain, they can stay in the sky here for more than three hours!
The nearby British air force base has been destroyed. The main pressure to be faced today is the main air defense force from District 11 in the East, that is, London.
The British will come!
Therefore, after taking off, they were patrolling northeast at an altitude of 5000 meters. When they flew above Exeter, a junker-290 bomber just flew in.
"Where is this bombing?" Heinz said to himself, looking at the bomber.
In the flying troops, they envy each other.
The bomber force envies the fighter force. The operation is natural and unrestrained. Moreover, the aircraft has good performance and can fly all kinds of difficult maneuvers.
The fighter forces also envy the leisurely nature of the bombers. When they wear oxygen masks and cruise in the air of 5000 meters, others drink drinks in the cockpit at an altitude of 8000 meters.
In particular, bombers such as junker-290 do not need to wear oxygen masks no matter how high they fly, and the cabin is quite wide. If they fly for a long time, they can even have a toilet.
Now, looking up at the bomber, Heinz is envious. Before taking off, Heinz had already gone to the toilet. During the three or four hour cruise in the sky, if he had an emergency, he could only hold it.
Now, when he looked up at the sky, he saw the belly of the bomber, the bomb cabin door opened and falling things inside.
It's not a bomb. It's a flyer?
Yes, it's a flyer!
The ink on it was not dry. It was 100000 leaflets printed overnight. Now, these leaflets fell from the sky and fell over Exeter.
When they found the bomber overhead, Bernard and others ran out quickly. They knew there was nothing they could do when they looked at each other's flying height.
It's too high. Their own light weapons can't beat each other down, and then these leaflets falling like snowflakes in the sky gradually fall down.
What's that?
Suddenly, a terrible idea came into his mind. Bernard shouted, "come on, wear a gas mask!"
Any veteran who has experienced World War I will still remember the poison gas war. At that time, there were huge casualties on both sides. Once the Pandora's box was opened, it was a disaster for mankind.
Even Hitler was temporarily blind in the gas war.
This world war is very different from the last one. The battle style of positional warfare has disappeared. The Germans have created a new tactic of Blitzkrieg. At the same time, poison gas has not been used again.
But veterans have intuition.
After midnight yesterday, the Germans retreated. Why didn't they fight? Are you waiting for a powerful weapon? For example, will something falling from the sky today release poison gas? Or some other germ weapon?
After wearing the gas mask like a pig's nose, the leaflets fell around them. Bernard took a leaflet with his hand wearing rubber gloves and looked through the glass lens of the gas mask.
At this time, the water vapor filled the air, and the lens of the gas mask was a little blurred. He looked at the leaflet carefully. Suddenly, he was so stunned that he took a breath of cold air. The whole gas mask was pasted on his face.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
