Chapter 492

"Damn it! Kill that Matilda!"Captain Erich cursed.

The other two hunting groups were ready to open fire.

"call out! call out!"

Two anti-tank rocket launchers opened fire almost at the same time.

Two rockets shot at the only surviving Matilda infantry tank from both sides.

"boom! boom!"

The explosion sounded, and the armor on the left and right sides of the Matilda infantry tank was penetrated. Fist-sized bullet holes were left in its armor. The crew members inside were massacred immediately..

Several Matilda infantry tanks were destroyed, which made the situation of the airborne troops of the Third Reich much better.

Although the attack of the Imperial Army was fierce, the intense firepower of the airborne troops of the Third Reich The blow had no other effect except leaving corpses on the ground in front of the position. The fierce battle continued until dawn.

The officers and soldiers of the 1st Company of the 2nd Paratroopers Regiment of the Third Reich, although they succeeded Withstand the attack of the Imperial Army where the sun never sets. Moreover, it caused great casualties to the enemy. However, its own losses were also not small. There were originally more than a hundred troops, but only a few dozen were left by daybreak. people. The losses were almost half.

At this time, several fighters appeared in the sky.

A squadron of four BF-109 fighters and a squadron of four Stuka dive bombers from the Third Reich Air Force rushed to the battlefield.

"Sir, the Air Force fighter planes are coming, we are saved!"

"Ha ha! Blow up those sons of bitches!"

The airborne troops of the Third Reich shouted one after another. They had been frustrated all night!

Although their combat effectiveness was very strong, under the siege of the enemy's superior force, they had no choice. Not only did they rush Not going out, but at the same time being suppressed.

Now, the Air Force's fighter planes are coming, and they can naturally teach those Imperial Army troops that the sun never sets.

"Bastard, a fighter plane of the Third Reich. Anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were set up!"

"boom! boom!"

The sun never sets on the Empire's air defense weapons before they were ready, the Third Reich's Air Force fighter planes took the lead in launching an attack.

Four BF-109 fighter jets took the lead in passing over the ground.

Aerial bombs hung under the wings were dropped.

"boom! boom!"

Aerial bombs exploded, and many soldiers who never set the sun were killed.

"Da da da!"

Immediately afterwards, these fighter jets began to fire violently from the air.

A large number of the Empires where the sun never sets were beaten into honeycombs by the bullets of the powerful aviation machine guns, and were even beaten to pieces.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The anti-aircraft firepower on the ground finally started shooting, trying to shoot down the Third Reich aircraft in the sky.

However, this attracted an attack from the Third Reich Air Force fighter planes.

"Woo! Woo!"

The dive bombers began to attack, accompanied by a sharp and piercing roar, almost diving downward at an angle of 90 degrees.

At a height of several hundred meters above the ground, they dropped bombs.

The heavy aerial bombs hit them at almost a vertical angle. On the air defense position of the Empire where the sun never sets

"boom!"

A violent explosion sounded, and the entire anti-aircraft position was destroyed. The anti-aircraft guns were blown into parts. As for the anti-aircraft soldiers, they were even blown into pieces. Four

BF-109 fighter jets and four Under the attack of Stuka dive bombers, the Sun Never Sets Reich Army suffered heavy losses, and the encirclement and suppression of the Third Reich's airborne troops naturally gave up without a fight.

In order to provide support to the airborne troops, the Third Reich Air Force At one time, two wings of fighter jets and one wing of dive bombers were dispatched.

With the fire support of the Air Force, the crisis for the airborne troops was almost resolved.

Although during the battle, the losses of these airborne troops were not small.

However, compared to the results they achieved, these losses were negligible.

The two airborne regiments had less than 5,000 troops. In one night of fighting, more than one-third were lost.

However, they were The number of casualties suffered by the Army of the Empire that was destroyed by the Sun Never Sets was more than fifteen times.

Moreover, these airborne troops also destroyed many artillery positions of the Empire by which the Sun Never Sets, and took away many of their material warehouses. Highways and Many bridges were also blown up, including a railway bridge.

Once the Third Reich made a massive landing and the sun never set, the Imperial Army could not withstand it. Subsequent reinforcements would not be easy to carry out.

The Army of the Third Reich can use this time to defeat the defense forces of the Empire on which the sun never sets, and gain a foothold in the Empire on which the sun never sets. Then, more and more troops of the Third Reich will successfully land and attack the Empire on which the sun never sets. Launch an attack in the hinterland.

When the attention of the Imperial Army is attracted here, the Army of the Third Reich will also land in Eastbourne and Margate. By then, the pressure on them to land will be less.The defense line deployed by the Empire on the southeast coast will be completely torn apart by the Third Reich Army.

Early on the morning of the 4th, Hess, the ruler of the Third Reich, listened to the report of Air Force Commander Marshal Milch on the airborne operations.

"Your Excellency, our two airborne regiments were engaged in battle yesterday evening. Good results were achieved along the southeastern coast of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. However, our two airborne regiments were also encircled and suppressed by more than ten times the superior force of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. Troop losses were very high. Preliminary estimates put the loss at one-third. Now, the Air Force has dispatched a large number of fighter planes to bomb the Imperial Army and provide air support for the airborne troops. The airborne troops will not truly complete their mission until the Army successfully lands."Marshal Milch reported.

Hess nodded. The losses of the airborne troops were indeed very large, even greater than those of the troops responsible for landing on the beach.

However, the results of the airborne troops were indeed amazing. They are worthy of being among the elite troops. elite.

But what worries Hess is that the airborne troops suffered such heavy losses in just one battle. After this battle is over, the two airborne regiments may not have many troops left at all.

"Let the two airborne regiments prepare and wait until the army successfully lands and establishes a foothold before withdrawing to rest. They are all treasures, and they cannot all be lost like this." Hess said

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor! Marshal Milch replied

"Your Excellency, the airborne force currently only has five regiments, and we plan to further expand the size of the airborne force."Marshal Milch continued.

Hess thought for a moment, then nodded:"Expand to ten regiments! Because of technology and weapons and equipment, the use of airborne troops still has many disadvantages. It’s almost enough to expand it to ten groups for the time being."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Marshal Mirchi is already very satisfied with this._To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
