On the morning of July 5, before dawn, German Air Force's airports on the front line were already busy. The airport was brightly lit, and ground crews were refueling the plane and adding ammunition. The pilots were receiving combat briefings.
This time, Imperial Air Force's target will be Chelyabinsk. Since Russia dares to refuse Germany's conditions, then Germany must take measures to make Russians surrender. There is no faster and more effective way than force.
"Everyone knows that our mission this time is to drop bombs on Chelyabinsk and raze the city to the ground! Russian Air Force doesn't have many fighter planes left, so it doesn't pose much of a threat to us. Our escort fighters will also do their best to ensure the safety of Bomber. So, don't worry," said Wing Commander of Bomber Wing.
Whether you are going from the Moscow front line or from the Yuzefgrad front line to Chelyabinsk, there is a distance of thousands of kilometers. German Air Force's BF-109 fighter jets and FW-190 fighter jets are unable to escort the Bomber troops due to range issues. Therefore, we can only rely on the BF-110 long-range fighter of the strategic Bomber force.
Fortunately, Russian Air Force has been almost consumed in the previous battle. Therefore, German Air Force only needs to dispatch a small number of fighter jets, which is enough to provide safe protection for the Bomber group.
German Air Force's strategic Bomber force has a total of 8 aviation groups. During the war against Russia, four strategic aviation clusters were deployed at Eastern Front for a long time to carry out strategic strikes against Russia. Originally, after the defeat of Russia, these aviation groups could be transferred to the west. But now, I didn't expect that Russians would refuse Germany's conditions. This also gave Germany Strategic Air Force another chance to take action.
At 6 a. m., the first H-21 heavy-duty Bomber took off from the airport. Subsequently, other H-21 heavy Bomber and H-11 medium Bomber also took off. The last one to take off was the BF-110 fighter jet serving as an escort.
This time, all four strategic aviation clusters of the German Air Force strategic force participated in this attack. Eight long-range BF-110 Fighter Wing, protecting four H-11 medium Bomber Wing and eight H-21 heavy Bomber Wing, flew to Chelyabinsk from various airports. Moreover, these BF-110 long-range fighters also carry bombs or rockets to assist bombing.
The mission Germany Strategic Air Force received was to blow Chelyabinsk into ruins in one fell swoop during this bombing.
The huge fleet gradually merged in the sky, forming an extremely large fleet. The rising sun jumped out of the horizon, spreading its light across the earth. However, when the huge German Air Force fleet appeared in the sky, it blocked the sun's rays.
When people on the ground saw German Air Force's huge fleet of aircraft that covered the sky and the sun, they were all stunned. Some people who believe in Christianity even thought it was a miracle and kept praying to God.
"God! The Air Force has so many Bombers. This time Russians is miserable!" A German military officer raised his head and looked at the huge fleet of aircraft and said with a smile. He was completely gloating about his misfortune.
"What is the Air Force doing? Do they want to raze that Russia city to the ground?"
"Who knows? But it should be Chelyabinsk. Who dared Russians to refuse our conditions? Isn't this asking for death?"
The officers and soldiers of German military are happy to see the Air Force dispatch a large fleet of aircraft to bomb Russians. If the Air Force's bombing can make Russians surrender, that would undoubtedly be the best. In this case, there would be no need for them to launch an attack.
Germany Berlin, Department of the Air Force. Marshal Air Force Minister Albert? Field Marshal Kesselring and Edward? Milch listened to the report of General Air Force Chief of Staff Hu Ge? Spee le.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency. By 6:40, all four strategic aviation groups of the Empire Strategic Air Force have taken off. 8 Long-Range Fighter Wing, 960 BF-110 fighter jets, 4 medium-sized Bomber Wing, 480 H-1 1 medium Bomber. 8 heavy Bomber Wing, 960 H-21 heavy Bomber, all took off. It is expected that the fleet will arrive over Chelyabinsk in another two hours." General Hugo Spee reported.
"480 H-11 medium Bomber and 960 H-21 heavy Bomber, the bombs they carry are enough to blow Chelyabinsk into rubble, right?" Albert Field Marshal Kesselring said.
"Your Majesty, that's about it. It's not realistic to blow up all the buildings in Chelyabinsk with this round of bombing. However, there is no problem in destroying most of the city. If necessary, you can add another round of bombing. That's almost it." Marshal Edward? Milch said. As the leader of Strategic Air Force, Marshal Edward? Milch is very satisfied with the power of Strategic Air Force. You know, the current Strategic Air Force has 8 aviation clusters, including 16 Long-Range Fighter Wing, with 1920 BF-110 long-range fighter jets and 8 medium-sized Bomber Wing, with 960 H-11 medium Bomber, 16 heavy Bomber Wing, with 1920 H-21 heavy Bomber.
Moreover, German Air Force is also developing the H-31 heavy-duty Bomber with stronger performance and larger bomb load. At present, this heavy-duty Bomber has begun small batch production and is being refitted for the troops.
The more advanced and powerful H-41 heavy-duty Bomber is also under intense development. The equipment troops are not far away.
"Well! Whether we need to carry out supplementary bombing, let's first look at the results of this bombing and Russians's reaction. If Russians surrenders, there will be no need to waste fuel and bombs. If they are ignorant, then launch a second round of bombing." Albert Field Marshal Kesselring said.
Marshal Edward? Milch nodded. He knew that the purpose of this operation was to force Russians to surrender and accept Germany's conditions.
"Will our Bomber group be intercepted by Russian Air Force? Will the loss be too great?" Albert Field Marshal Kesselring asked.
"Russian Air Force doesn't have many fighters left. Besides, the air combat performance of our BF-110 long-range fighter is also very good, which is enough to deal with the interception of Russians." Marshal Edward? Milch said.
Albert? Field Marshal Kesselring was relieved.
As time passed, the huge fleet of aircraft dispatched by Germany Strategic Air Force got closer and closer to Chelyabinsk. The news of German Air Force's dispatch was also learned by the leaders of Russian Provisional Government.
