The Third Reich: I Became Emperor

Marshal Dowding almost died after receiving the battle report. Of the first batch of 500 fighter planes, only about 20 returned, and the rest were all destroyed.

The key is that only a few pilots survived the parachute jump, which means that in one wave of attacks, the British army lost one tenth of the fighter planes they had accumulated in two years.

"Bastard, bastard, one tenth of the fighter planes are gone? Just like that? What do you do for a living?"

"Only shot down more than twenty German fighter planes?"

""Damn it! We actually lost nearly 500 fighter planes. Can anyone tell me why?" Marshal Dowding roared madly at the headquarters with a gloomy face.

Five hundred fighter planes are almost three air divisions, and they are gone. The loss is absolutely huge. You know, they were ambushing under the guidance of radar, preparing to catch the German army off guard.

As a result, the ambush failed, and they suffered heavy losses. This was hard for him to accept.

Even though they were at such a disadvantage two years ago, they had never suffered so much. This time, the loss of nearly 500 fighter planes really hurt him.

"Oh, God, are you really going to abandon us?"At the headquarters, there was only the sound of panting, and no one dared to say a word. Marshal Dowding sighed in pain, looking a little desperate.

""Your Excellency, according to the reports from the surviving pilots, the German army has a new type of fighter plane, which has a speed of at least over one thousand kilometers per hour. Our fighter planes cannot catch up at all and can only passively take the beating." Finally, an officer spoke.

Upon hearing this, Marshal Dowding gritted his teeth and said:"Is it the jet fighter called J-5?""

Marshal Dowding has long known that the German army was secretly researching jet fighters, but he did not expect the combat effectiveness to be so strong, which was completely beyond his expectations.

In fact, the Royal Air Force also has its own jet fighters, but the performance is not so stable, there are too many problems, and it is not suitable for large-scale combat, so it has not been brought out for display.

However, according to the intelligence sent back from the front line, even if their new jet fighters appear, they are of no use. Compared with the German jet fighters, the performance gap of their fighters is really too large.

"Marshal, the support planes from other airports have landed. Do we still want to continue the battle?"At this time, an officer came over and asked.

Hearing this, Marshal Dowding fell into deep thought. Although he had lost nearly 500 fighter planes in just ten minutes, the current situation was very dangerous. If he did not continue the battle, London would be completely destroyed.

"Continue to fight the enemy. This is a fateful battle. If you are destined to fail, you must face it bravely and accept your fate. Marshal Dowding said loudly.

""Yes! Your Excellency Marshal." Everyone answered in unison

………

At this time, the Il-28 gradually revealed its silvery white belly in the sky and began to lower its altitude.

"Prepare to drop bombs, follow the target, drop bombs immediately"

"Open the hatch!"

"The hatch is open!"

"Aim at the target and start dropping bombs"

"Got it, start dropping bombs."

As the bombardier pressed the switch, bombs suddenly poured out of the huge belly hatch, and the aircraft behind them were not to be outdone, dropping bombs one after another from the sky.

"Boom!"A violent explosion soon sounded, and the target that had been aimed at was immediately covered by thick smoke.

"Woo, save me!"

"I don’t want to die!"

"What kind of bomb is this?"

"Damn, why is it black fire?"

"Put out the fire quickly."

This time, most of the targets dropped by the Germans were important factories. In two years, the Germans still managed to get hold of many important targets in London. However, due to radar problems, their fighter planes were intercepted by British fighter planes every time they flew over.

However, this time it was different. Relying on the excellent performance of the J-5 jet fighters, they slaughtered British fighter planes crazily, so they had the opportunity to bomb the British arsenal.

The billowing flames, the black smoke rising into the sky, and the sudden rise in temperature alarmed everyone.

"Damn, what kind of bomb is this? Why is it so powerful? This is simply hell."

"I have never seen such a horrific scene in my lifetime. I will never forget it."

"This is really horrible."

"When did the German army develop such a terrifying bomb?"

"This is a life-and-death battle."

"The Germans are simply crazy."

It's a pity that no matter how much they cursed, it was useless. This was a war. There was no innocence, only victory and defeat.

On the ground, the British anti-aircraft artillery units kept firing. Unfortunately, their anti-aircraft guns only had a range of five or six kilometers and could not cause any damage to the Il-28 bomber at an altitude of ten thousand meters.
