Jagged Germany: Chapter 1213 Air strike power 19th update
"Report, the fleet has been bombed and is returning!" A general entered the office and reported to Marshal Albert Kesselring and Marshal Edward Milch.
Since the departure of the fleet, the two of them have been waiting for the results in the office. After all, this was the first round of strategic bombing launched by the Luftwaffe. They are all very much looking forward to the results of this strategic bombing. Whether the expected results can be achieved, how much will be lost, will the gains outweigh the losses, and so on.
"Has the target been destroyed?" Marshal Edward Milch asked.
"The Russian aircraft factory in Kazan has been destroyed. Most of the Kazan city area has become a ruin. After assessment, the targets there have been completely destroyed. The Russians have been unable to reuse the aircraft in a short period of time." The factory is gone," said the general.
Marshal Albert Kesselring nodded with satisfaction: "In this case, if the Russian Yak-1 fighter wants to enter service, I am afraid that it will have to be postponed for a while. And we can use this time to continue Launch a strategic bombing campaign against Burundi and Russia to attack their industrial strength and weaken their war potential."
The Russian Yak-1 fighter is the only fighter that can pose a threat to Germany's strategic bombers. The ceilings of other fighter jets are all below 9,000 meters, and they cannot threaten the German heavy bomber fleet at an altitude of 10,000 meters. In this case, the risk factor is undoubtedly much lower when conducting strategic bombing.
"How about our loss?" Marshal Albert Kesselring then asked.
"Your Excellency Marshal, in this round of bombing, we lost seven H-11 heavy bombers and two H-21 heavy bombers, as well as 12 BF-110 fighter jets. In addition, during the battle, our **** fighter jets also shot down More than 300 P-40 fighter jets from the Russians." The general continued.
"Although the loss is not small, the result is greater. This time the strategic bombing was a complete success!" Marshal Albert Kesselring said.
"Yes, Your Excellency. With the loss of nine heavy bombers and 12 long-range fighters, the Russian aircraft factory was destroyed, and more than 300 fighters were also eliminated. This exchange ratio is already very good. said Marshal Edward Milch.
Not to mention, after this round of bombing, Bu Russia's latest Yak-1 fighter jet will have to be postponed, and the benefits arising from this will undoubtedly be very large.
"Let the pilots take a good rest and continue to launch strategic bombings against Bu Russia tomorrow. Try to use our strategic bombers to weaken the war potential of Bu Russia to the lowest point. In this way, we will defeat them more easily!" Al Field Marshal Bert Kesselring said.
Since strategic bombing can achieve such great results at the smallest cost. Then, strategic bombing will naturally continue. The more severely the industrial strength of Bu Russia is destroyed, the more beneficial it will be for Germany to defeat Bu Russia.
"Marshal Milch, let's go to the palace. His Majesty the Emperor must be waiting for our news." Marshal Albert Kesselring smiled. The Luftwaffe was established too late, and there were no impressive records. This makes them always at a disadvantage among the three major military services of land, sea and air. But this time, the Luftwaffe seems to have found a way to use their great strength. In this battle, they will rely on this tactic to attack the enemy and gain more military exploits.
Marshal Edward Milch nodded repeatedly, and after arranging other matters, he and Marshal Albert Kesselring drove to the Imperial Palace to meet Kaiser Qin Tian.
"Marshals, it seems that the strategic bombing has succeeded!" Qin Tian saw Marshals Albert Kesselring and Marshal Edward Milch walking into his office with smiles on their faces, and he already guessed the result. .
"Yes, Your Majesty. We have completely destroyed the Bu Russia factory in Kazan, and half of Kazan City has been blown up. In addition, the escorting fighter jets also shot down more than 300 P-40 fighter jets. This battle , We have won a complete victory!" Marshal Albert Kesselring said.
"Very good, this is a very good start." Qin Tian nodded in satisfaction.
The German Air Force has finally developed into a strategic air force. Relying on this powerful air force, the possibility of Germany defeating those powerful enemies in this battle is undoubtedly higher. At least it will not make its homeland a place for strategic bombing by the Americans like Germany in another time and space. The outcome of the war will be changed once again.
"What about our losses?" Qin Tian asked.
"Nine heavy bombers were lost, including seven H-11 heavy bombers and two H-21 heavy bombers, all of which were shot down by ground anti-aircraft fire during the bombing. In addition, the escorting BF-110 fighter jets lost 12." Marshal Edward Milch said,
Qin Tian nodded, compared to the results obtained, such a loss is indeed not that big. Therefore, it can be seen that Germany's strategic bombing is undoubtedly very cost-effective.
"Do your best to rescue those pilots!" Qin Tian said.
On that day, Qin Tian also knew that those pilots were probably close to death. Bu Russia, who suffered heavy losses, will definitely vent his anger on those pilots. In this cruel war, the so-called "Geneva Convention" and human rights have no effect at all.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Albert Kesselring and Marshal Edward Milch nodded.
"I will let the intelligence department find a way to help the Air Force rescue those pilots." Qin Tian continued.
But even so, Marshal Albert Kesselring and Edward Milch did not have much hope for this report. After all, the place where they were shot down was far away from the combat zone and belonged to the hinterland of Bu Russia. Not even special forces can penetrate that far.
"The strategic bombing of Bu Russia will continue. Until we completely destroy Bu Russia!" Qin Tian said.
As long as the Luftwaffe's strategic bombing can continue to destroy Russian factories, especially those military industrial enterprises, Germany's advantages in the war will become greater and greater. In this way, Germany will be able to defeat Bu Russia at a lower cost in the next war and win the victory in the European battlefield.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Albert Kesselring and Marshal Edward Milch replied.
The next day, the German Air Force once again dispatched thousands of heavy bombers to destroy Nizhny Novgorod.
From here on, German strategic bombing will continue as long as the weather permits.
