Chapter 2329 "That's not IL 2"

"We didn't call for air support. Where did they come from? Who called them here?"

The flames of death poured down from the sky, and the blazing rain of fire burned on the battlefield filled with war.

A sudden roaring air raid disrupted everything. Malashenko and his party, who began to enter the shooting position and fired fiercely at the German tanks, were completely stunned. I didn’t even understand at first whether the roar of the engine overhead was our own or the opponent’s. It wasn’t until I opened the turret hatch above my head and glanced at the sky that I saw the shining red star on the wing that I confirmed the identity of the friendly force. .

"Stop talking nonsense, take out the flag and put it on the roof of the car quickly!"

Malashenko did not have time to marvel like Iushkin. How to prevent the damage of this air strike from causing damage to friendly forces is the top priority right now.

Iushkin, who had not thought of this for a while, was excited when he heard Malashenko's order. Without saying a word, he immediately picked up the air defense identification flag placed in the storage box on the side, and was about to climb out of the turret and head towards Roof bunk.

Malashenko, who was holding the radio transmitter in his hand, was not idle either. He had not yet had time to help Iushkin lay the flag outside the turret. There were more important orders that had to be issued quickly.

"Alfa Commando, avoid the air raid area! Stay away from those fascists! Planes and bombs in the sky are not very discerning, so avoid them immediately!"

The flanking detachment, which attempted to carry out a roundabout flank attack under Malashenko's order, forcing the German armored forces to be unable to concentrate all combat forces, has now moved at high speed to a position very close to the side and rear of the German tank, approaching within one kilometer. With just one click of the accelerator, you can launch an assault against the German enemy in front of you.

One kilometer is a long distance on the ground, but in the sky, it is the distance that the pilot can measure with his index finger and thumb while sitting in the cockpit.

These days, there is no identification friend or foe device that can emit electronic signals. Pilots rely solely on their naked eyes to judge and aim air strike targets, and they can attack whoever they want.

The distance further forward is very dangerous. If you get too close to those Germans, Malashenko can say with confidence that his troops will be bombed. You can't distinguish the huge Stalin tanks in the sky. Who is who with the King Tiger tank?

In the past, there have been countless incidents where other friendly forces suffered accidental damage from air attacks because they were too close to the Germans, and were even chased and beaten by aviation. As a division commander, Malashenko certainly knows these negative teaching materials and has asked his troops to study them. Now faced with this situation, he must naturally try his best to avoid possible accidental damage from air strikes.

Whether it is ordering the Alpha Commando to make a roundabout attack from behind to evade and retreat, or asking Iushkin to put a large air defense identification flag on the roof of his command vehicle, the purpose of all this is just for the Red Army aviation. Iron bombs, don't throw them on the heads of the Red Army tank soldiers and blow them up yourself.

Iushkin, who went to lay out the air defense identification flag outside the turret, was very agile. In a few seconds, he spread the hammer-and-sickle red flag on the top of the turret, fastened it to the radio antenna and the machine gun mount on the roof, and rushed to the horse-drawn carriage. Schenko had returned to the car before he put down the radio.

"Done! What now? Reverse!?"

Amid Iushkin's gasping words, he raised his head again and glanced at the commander's periscope in front of him. Malashenko, who had no intention of doing so, continued to speak.

"It's not necessary. We are far enough away from the air raid zone. The first few vehicles that entered the battle zone are already retreating. Those people in the sky have good eyesight and have no intention of attacking us."

The well-prepared emergency air defense and evasion measures did not come in handy. To Malashenko's surprise, the pilots in the sky had very good eyesight and did not mistake the friendly tank targets for Germans. They bombed them all at once and sent them to the sky. This model also looks quite bright.

"Am I being blinded? I always feel like there's something different about those IL-2s?"

The Germans who had been bombarded indiscriminately had no ability or time to fight the enemy ground troops. This gave the Red Army tank soldiers who also had to avoid risks and stay away from the air raid area to prevent accidental damage, a good " It’s an opportunity to “eat melon and watch a show”, and it’s absolutely safe.

For example, Iushkin now stuck half of his head out of the car, looked at the red star war eagles flying up and down in the sky, and asked questions. He leaned on the commander's seat and took advantage of the air raid break to quickly Malashenko, who lit a cigarette for himself to relieve his addiction, answered casually.

"That's not the Il-2, it's the latest Il-10, a new upgraded model of the Il-2. It's faster, more powerful, and more accurate and deadly than the old Il-2. It's enough to give those fascists a hard time. "

As Malashenko said, the Il-10, as the direct and orthodox successor of the Il-2, is currently killing the German tanks on the ground with all kinds of weapons.

The 132mm heavy-duty aviation rocket roared out from under the wing and headed straight towards the Tianling cover of the German tank on a high-angle diving trajectory.

The 250-kilogram aerial bombs fell one after another. In order to ensure the hit rate, they even dropped multiple bombs at once. As long as they could kill or paralyze a King Tiger, they would win.

At first glance, these ground air strikes led by a group of veterans quickly yielded results. The rich experience in air strikes combined with cutting-edge weapons and equipment naturally dealt a considerable blow to the German army.

The German tanks destroyed by the air raids were burning one after another. It was not possible to confirm the exact number of destroyed tanks for a while, but it was visible to the naked eye that a vehicle had been destroyed and was on fire. The German armored soldiers were forced to choose Abandon the car and escape.

However, the direct descendants of the "Black Death" in the sky would not let them go so easily.

The huge sword of the war sickle raised high was like a guillotine, falling heavily on the backs of these German armored soldiers who had abandoned their vehicles and escaped, leaving no one alive.

Dong dong dong dong dong——

The ferocious firepower of the 23mm aerial cannon can easily tear into pieces any flesh and blood body in its path.

The crimson tracer barrage was like two long whips of blood grinding flesh and blood. Wherever they struck and waved, there was a patch of crimson rotten blood, rotten flesh and ferocious bones scattered all over the ground. The only thing filling the air was The smell of death.

"These Germans are finished. Today is the end of the 502nd Battalion. Counting, there are more than 20 Il-10s in the sky. It is more than enough to lift these fascist bastards away."
