Chapter 87 The Second Battle of Midway Island (8)

The US military has actually made careful preparations for the upcoming attack on the German army:

First, disperse the huge fleet, especially the large number of strategic transport aircraft without any combat effectiveness, evacuated all back to Venezuela or the Caribbean, and other combat aircraft will also be deployed;

Second, some night fighter jets equipped with radar were prepared for intercepting, allowing the radar station to strengthen surveillance and prevent the German army from frequently playing this trick at night assault axis;

Third, the fully prepared anti-aircraft artillery troops were ready to use all the artillery fire to welcome the arrival of the enemy's air strikes.

But the Germans who did not play according to common sense suddenly changed their routine and directly used a meteor to open the way. The first missile exploded at the port terminal, and then missiles flew down one after another.

Only then did the senior US military leaders come back to their senses and know that these are not meteors that are pleasing to the eye, but are rockets that are used by the Germans in London, which are breathtaking and unpredictable.

The 1-ton explosive warhead of the v2+ missile is actually equivalent to a heavy bomb or Yamato 46o naval artillery shell (just more than combat force), but the momentum is far better than that of the aforementioned two. This earth-shaking and terrifying momentum is no longer the same as the above-mentioned Mach 8 falls farther than the landing degree of the bomb or shell, and the destructive power caused by it is also far more than that of the bomb or shell. Unlike ordinary bombs or shells, people on the ground do not know what the target they are going to hit before the missile falls. Military camps, ports, docks, airports, fortifications, residential areas, open spaces, hills and even forests may not be able to control where they fly.

But overall, one-third of these 72 v2s caused damage, especially one was impartial and hit a fuel bank at the airport. Not only did the explosions in a chain of explosions, but also formed a huge mushroom cloud.

A missile hit a radar station directly outside the meter away. The huge explosion force and shock wave washed away the radar station together with all the staff members like playing cards, and then left a large pit with a diameter of more than 100 meters on the ground.

This sudden meteor shower caused the ideological confusion between Brazilians and ordinary American soldiers, shouting that the doomsday trial was seized and fled. This was not the tragic end of that night. On the contrary, it only kicked off the saturation attack of the German army.

Soon the radar station reported to its superiors that a large number of aircraft were coming quickly, with a length of up to 7 oo kilometers per hour. The night combat interceptors and other attack aircraft that had been prepared were taken off immediately. The former was to deal with the enemy, and the latter was to avoid being destroyed by the enemy on the ground.

The fighter pilots responsible for interception saw a scene that they would never forget for life: flames were sprayed at the tails of one small plane after another, and rushed towards them with a 7-oo kilometers per hour telling. The brave American pilot tried to intercept the head-on, but it was shocked that the opponent was not afraid of the fighter using 7mm bullets to intercept and shoot, and even "disdained" the evasion movement. He rushed in like this. Only a very few lucky people hit the warhead of the V3 missile with a 2m Sispano cannon, and then the opposite side turned into a ball of explosive shock wave mixed with various debris.

The anti-aircraft gunners on the ground fired desperately at these targets in a daze, but only achieved few results.

On that day, the German army fired a total of 192 V3 cruise missiles in two batches, reaching nearly 92% of the above El Salvador targets. The rest did not know where they flew. Three were successfully intercepted by US aircraft, six of them were hit by anti-aircraft artillery on the ground, and the rest fell and detonated successfully. Since the two submarines in the port provided the last section of relay guidance and corrected the flight error of these missiles, their hit rate was much higher than that of V2. Although the damage power and momentum of a single piece were not as good as that of V2, the number was more, the distribution was more uniform, and the various were widespread, causing great panic.

It was not until the sky began to brighten that their "long-awaited" German attack group arrived late.

But after all the troubles at night, both physically, energy, defense and reaction abilities were at a low point, and they were caught off guard by the German army.

Ozawa pulled out four main aircraft carriers in one breath, a total of 251 attack aircraft aircraft, the other four escort aircraft carriers took off 1OO multiple fighter jets to escort the remaining fleet, and 12 Ar-452s were responsible for photo shooting functions, preparing to go deep into the war zone to shoot masterpieces formed by missiles.

This time, the b-319 and do-412 began to imitate the air force, carrying m rockets. When they saw the intercepting US aircraft, they just called rockets, or lowered the altitude to go to the ground to strafuse, while the ju-198s carried three 25o kilogram bombs to carry out bombing missions.

At 7:45 in the morning, under the three saturation attacks of the German v2+ missiles, v3 missiles and aircraft carrier attack groups, the entire El Salvador fell into chaos. The German army paralyzed nearly all the airports of El Salvador with the loss of 50,000 marks of missiles worth 50,000 marks. It shot down or destroyed the remaining US aircraft in the air or on the ground, directly stifling the counterattack capabilities of the US Air 6.

At the same time, the battleship troops that had advanced rapidly from last night approached the port. By 8 o'clock in the morning, they were less than 2 oo kilometers away from the port. In more than three hours, the 38m-level shells were about to fall.

At 1 o'clock, the US military, who came back to his senses, pieced together an attack group of 1oo aircraft to attack the German fleet. The target of the officers who led the team was the German aircraft carrier formation, but when they saw five majestic battleships standing close to the air defense cruisers and Hedgehog-class destroyers, they were all sweating down and immediately turned around to attack the German battleships. However, they were ruthlessly intercepted by German fighters covering the air. Apart from eating a few near-lost bombs and a few 1ooo-pound bombs, the battleships were completely unscathed. However, the Porcupine-class air defense cruisers and Hedgehog-class destroyers that accompanied the advance were each blown and sunk, but the results of the US military were limited to this. They were shot down more than 6o aircraft by German fighter pilots who were slaughtering.

"What, do you say the German main fleet is shelling El Salvador? Our army suffered heavy losses and was forced to retreat?" At noon, George Patton, who received the emergency telegram, was shocked. "Didn't El Salvador have nearly 7oo planes? Why not attack this fleet? Are their bombs used as toys?"

"The enemy attacked our army unexpectedly with a large number of rockets last night, causing great chaos. Then this morning was attacked by German attack aircraft, with great losses. Air 6 did organize an air strike against the German fleet, but the results were not great. Instead, it lost more than 7o aircraft. Then under the German shelling and the second aircraft carrier-based aircraft attack, we lost nearly 2o aircraft... Now there are less than 1o aircraft available in the entire El Salvador, and they are all at the rear field airport. There is a lack of fuel, bombs and other facilities, and it is basically impossible to fight."

"Bastard! 6 Airlines are all a bunch of food!" Patton slammed his fist on the table, "Called for reinforcements from the Recife Air Force, and there were at least 4oo-5oo aircraft there."

"I have called and it is said that air strikes will be organized as soon as possible, but I feel the results are effective. They are more than 70 kilometers away from El Salvador."

"Can General Hewitt send Naval Air Force to help?" Patton asked Roosevelt Jr. "We have at least 17o planes in our hands."

"I asked him, and he said it was useless. Most of the aircraft on this batch of escort aircraft carriers were F6F fighters. As long as there were less than 2O SBDs, the pilots were also very unskilled. The level of attack on ships and ground was very poor. The only thing they could do was defense!"

"well……"

"Now I'm still thinking about how to defend Guru Port. I think General Hewitt is uneasy and worried."

After the TF48 formation went south to South Africa, Hewitt, who had returned early, brought nearly 20,000 people to the Roosevelt attack group. In the end, Patton insisted on landing 6 in Port Segulu. Hewitt could not resist him and agreed.

Judging from the situation at that time, it is a good move to board the 6th in Port Seguru. Because the place is nearly 0 kilometers away from the Brazilian German army and more than 4 kilometers away from El Salvador, it can attack and retreat and defend. In addition, Patton not only has a powerful armored cluster, but also has fighter cover provided by the six escort aircraft carriers and the 6-aircraft protection of El Salvador in the rear.

According to Patton's idea at the time, if the German reinforcements dared to attack Seguru Port, he would fight a defensive battle: the escort aircraft carrier provides combat air defense, and the El Salvador 6 Aircraft provided air cover. With his troops, he could not defend here, but after one night, all the situation changed.

Hewitt's trouble was that his fleet was going to leave and return to the local area to continue carrying, but because the German main fleet headed south, in order to prevent the collision from falling into the middle, he had to stay in the Port of Saiguru to wait. The result was better now. El Salvador in the north was taken down. Now the fleet only has a large group of transport ships, destroyers and weak escort aircraft carriers. How can it deal with the German main fleet like a wolf?

Shoken, who led his troops to the Victoria-Linjaris line, received an urgent telegram: "Marson Rommel ordered us not to be afraid of the emptiness behind us, and to attack the US troops in Port Saiguru with all their might, and he will fill in the defense line."

"good!"

"Martyr Rommel and Marshal Mashar came together to send a telegram, asking us to command the troops to attack and eliminate the US fleet entrenched in Port Saiguru!"

Crank was shocked: "I am in Argentina. The fleet is covered in scars and cannot fight at all. How could it be that it is possible to go to Seguru? Even if the fleet is intact, it will not be able to get there."

Hinz smiled apologetically: "Sorry, I didn't make it clear. The two marshals meant to let Rio's carrier-based aircraft attack!"

"This is no problem. Let the Air Force command with full authority. I will not control it for the remote control!"

Rommel waited for Crank's words. He had actually notified Embraer to prepare for attack, but Gauss reminded him that although HNA evolved from the Air Force, it was the navy after all, and it was inappropriate to bypass Crank, so he had this telegram for inquiries.

In the morning, Mashal gave the Salvador front-line battle report to Rommel, who immediately keenly captured the murderous intent trained by countless enemy troops in France, Poland, North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, and Iceland.

"Tank, assault!"
