Chapter 2050: Assault in depth three
"I never thought that these wooden racks with an engine could be so majestic." A Junker officer looked at the K8 bomber flying in the air and exclaimed, as a traditional Junker nobleman, especially a military nobleman. , He is somewhat hostile to all non-army stuff, but now he has to admit that these new things can help the German army on the ground do a lot!
"It's a German bomber! Oh my God, how can they have so many bombers!" At the same time, the French have a terrible look! When the German bomber group flew over like a dark cloud covering the sky and the sun, the French sky had no cover! Hundreds of German fighter jets have been deployed around, forming a defensive shield over the battlefield. All Allied aircrafts who want to break through this shield to threaten bombers will have to pay a very high price! And now? The attack by the German bombers was unscrupulous!
"Let's fly over the Frenchman's head! I want to lift off the Frenchman's hat!" A German pilot said arrogantly as he looked at the French ant-like army on the ground, and he did exactly that. With the exception of some anti-aircraft guns, there is almost no effective anti-aircraft attack. This wave of German air strikes is very arrogant! Most of the bombers actually flew through 200 meters in the air, and then dropped the bombs horizontally. The preferred targets were naturally artillery positions in the rear, transportation hubs, and troops and vehicles moving on the highway.
Before the bombers dropped the tons of bombs, the French army on the ground was baptized by a pouring rain of bombs! Hundreds of machine guns on hundreds of bombers swept through the air with the plane, and tens of thousands of bullets fell from the air like raindrops. In an instant, they defeated the hordes of replenishment soldiers, bringing a carriage and The truck reached the burning box. The incendiary bomb fired by the large-caliber machine gun ignited everything it touched like a flame spirit flying in the air! The most unexpected thing is that a group of bombers flying above the French armored forces destroyed several tanks with machine guns!
"We flew through a bush, and I suddenly found the French tanks hidden in the bushes. They seemed to be Renault light tanks. They were very close to me. They seemed to be only 300 meters away in a straight line. I subconsciously took the double The 12.7MM machine gun was aimed at the opponent, and then the trigger was pulled. However, unexpectedly, a series of incendiary bombs directly hit the middle and rear of one of the tanks. I should have hit the engine compartment behind. The upper heat dissipation cover! The aluminum powder in the ammunition ignited the engine compartment of this tank, and besides me, several tanks were killed by other comrades!" A German machine gunner recalled the situation at that time.
Because of the successful destruction of the armored target with a machine gun this time, the Luftwaffe then began to study the possibility of using small-caliber or medium-caliber anti-tank guns on the aircraft to completely destroy the tank. Of course this is something to say, let’s leave it alone! These Renault tanks are just desserts before meals. The real feast is coming soon!
"It's the French heavy artillery position! I saw it! It's the GPF194MM heavy cannon! I saw this thing at a trophy exhibition! It's so beautiful. Look at the thick barrels that are full Mechanically beautiful chassis!" said a German pilot pointing to a GPF194MM heavy cannon battalion spread out in the open area ahead! At least 12 heavy cannons lined up in a wide position, and not far behind them were piles of ammunition and transport vehicles!
The French, of course, considered that such an important position might be subject to air strikes. When the German fleet approached, the antiaircraft artillery modified with 75MM rapid-fire guns deployed on the periphery began to fire into the air. However, the muzzle velocity of the 75 rapid-fire guns of this era It is still too low, and the rotation is not flexible, which results in the actual air efficiency of this weapon is not as good as the 2-pound machine gun. As a result, the Germans did not pay attention to them. The machine guns on the side of the bomber and the lower part of the body were suppressed, and dozens of bombers still flew to the French heavy artillery position!
Dozens of tons of bombs fell from less than 150 meters in the air, and huge plumes of smoke rose into the air. Flame and gun smoke instantly covered the entire position. A 194MM heavy cannon was directly hit by a 150KG high-explosive bomb. 80KG explosives directly exploded the steel behemoth weighing more than 20 tons into parts. The other artillery was affected even if it was not hit directly.
As long as a 150KG bomb falls within 10 meters of the artillery radius, the shock wave generated by this bomb can cause fatal damage to some fragile parts of the gun mount and the artillery chassis. As for the Frenchman next to it? A bomb with a radius of up to 50 meters can completely shred all the flesh and blood creatures exposed in front of it! You know, the shell charge of a 155MM heavy howitzer is only about 6KG!
As the fleet moved, tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs fell one after another, leaving a road full of flames and smoke on the ground~www.wuxiaspot.com~, and the end of this road was stacked behind the artillery position. Ammunition! And when a series of bombs fell on the ammunition stacking site and nearby vehicles, the entire artillery position was blown into the sky by a violent explosion!
A powerful shock wave quickly swept across an area of tens of thousands of square meters, and even the K6 bomber flying in the air was constantly trembling by the strong updraft! A visible white wave swept over everything on the ground, and the violent explosion could feel the vibration of the earth even 2 kilometers away!
"It is estimated that nearly a hundred tons of shells have exploded." A French officer said afterwards.
"Remember, the next time you bomb the bombing site, the plane will fly higher!" The captain said to the pilot looking at the scars on the body.
But no matter what, this important pillar of the French army's firepower is so finished. However, in other places, both the Saint Diamond 220MM heavy artillery and the ordinary military and division 155MM heavy artillery suffered heavy damage in this sudden air attack, and some of them moved faster and avoided the bombing, but did not dare to show their heads. They just wreaked havoc. In a few minutes, the French army's long-range firepower suddenly weakened a lot, and at this time, the German Panzer Corps, after a short rest, rushed up again!
In the next battle, the Germans witnessed the final conscience and bloodliness of the French Legion! In a situation that was already at stake, Gallieni invested all his armor! Under the attack of the German bombers, the armored spearhead rushed up against the Germans!
