Third Reich: I took over power

The air battle was very fierce. More than 3,000 fighter planes from both sides fought fiercely over the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Cabot Strait, almost covering the entire sky.

The battle was very fierce, and fighter planes were shot down almost every moment.

The fighter planes that fell from the sky fell to the sea like firebirds, splashing water columns.

Although the fleets dispatched by the Eagle Country Army Air Force and the Sun Never Sets Empire Air Force are larger. However, they were at a disadvantage in this air battle. The loss of fighter aircraft was much larger than that of the Third Reich's air force and naval carrier-based aircraft forces.

Moreover, their planned battle plan also ended in failure.

The Eagle Army Air Force originally planned to dispatch a large number of bombers to destroy the Third Reich's airport on New Zealand Island and erase the Third Reich Air Force's foothold on New Zealand Island, thereby creating a way to regain New Zealand Island. Chance.

But unfortunately, it still fell short in the end.

At least, this time the operation ended in failure.

The fierce air battle lasted for more than an hour before it ended. Both sides suffered heavy losses and had to withdraw their troops.

The losses of the Eagle Army Air Force were very heavy. In terms of fighter jets, more than 500 P-47 fighter jets and P-5.1 fighter jets were shot down. In terms of bombing, the losses were even more staggering. Over four hundred B17s, B-24s, heavy bombers, and B-25 medium bombers were shot down.

The Royal Air Force of the Sun Never Sets Empire also suffered considerable losses. Of the more than two hundred Spitfire fighter jets that participated in the battle, less than half escaped alive. Hundreds of Lancaster heavy bombers also suffered staggering losses, with most of them shot down.

So many fighter planes were lost, but the results achieved were relatively small.

The 1st Air Group of the Third Reich Air Force lost more than two hundred fighters. Mainly the losses of FW-190 fighters, TA, and -152 fighters were much smaller. , and the carrier-based aircraft force of the Third Reich Navy also lost hundreds of carrier-based fighter jets.

As for the airport on New Zealand Island, there was almost no damage. It does not affect the takeoff and landing of aircraft.

When both sides received the damage report of this large-scale air battle, the leaders of both sides had serious expressions.

"In just one day, we lost more than 300 aircraft? If the losses continue at this intensity, wouldn't tens of thousands of combat aircraft be lost in a month?"Hess's expression was solemn.

Although the Third Reich's air force and naval carrier-based aircraft units had strong financial resources, they could not afford such losses!

"Your Majesty, the loss is indeed very heavy. However, our losses are great, and the losses of the Eagle Sauce Country and the Sun Never Sets Empire are even greater than ours. In the air battle, we shot at least 600 fighter jets. In addition, five hundred bombers were shot down by us."Air Force Commander Marshal Milch said.

Hess nodded. If this continues, the damage to the Third Reich will be much smaller. Moreover, it can continue to persist.

"In this case, that is wrong. The losses of the Eagle Country and the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets were greater than ours. So, we have taken advantage of it a lot. This aerial consumption to continue. I want to see how many fighter planes and pilots come from the Eagle Kingdom and the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets to compete with us!" Hess said

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Marshal Milch replied.

The losses of the Third Reich are much smaller, so they can continue this air battle.

Anyway, the Eagle Country and the Sun Never Sets Empire, which have suffered greater losses, will inevitably be unable to hold on first.

"The 1st Air Force Air Group suffered a lot this time and must make up for it immediately. Yingjiang Country has suffered such a big loss this time and will definitely not let it go."Hess reminded

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Marshal Mirchi nodded.

He also knew very well that although the Eagle Army Air Force lost a lot of fighter planes this time, compared to the huge size of the Eagle Army Air Force, such a small loss was simply insignificant..

Next, the Eagle Army Air Force, which has suffered such a heavy loss, will definitely not give up and will continue to launch attacks. This will undoubtedly be a great test for the 1st Air Force Group of the Third Reich Air Force. After all

, although the 1st Air Group can fight, their number of fighters is too small, only 600. If the consumed fighters are not replenished for a long time, this will undoubtedly greatly weaken their combat effectiveness and make them There is an opportunity for the Chinese Army Air Force to take advantage of

"In addition, more engineers were sent to New Zealand to build an airport. The construction of regular airports takes a little longer, and some field airports can be built first for emergencies. Our fighter jets all have the ability to take off from field airports." Hess went on to say

"Yes, Your Excellency, I will arrange it."Marshal Milch replied.

The current battle of the Third Reich Air Force on the New Island is mainly anti-aircraft operations. It is completely possible to build large-scale field airports to station fighter planes. And for the mainland of the Eagle Country and the Maple Leaf Country, The bombing can only be carried out after the Third Reich Air Force has completely ensured the safety of Neufenland Island. Therefore, there is no need to send bombers to Neufenland Island for the time being.

In addition to the need for the Air Force's 1st Air Force to replenish its strength, the Navy's carrier-based The fleet also suffered a lot of losses and needs to be replenished. Moreover, the navy is more urgent to replenish its strength. They must guard against the attack of the Eagle Navy.

Fortunately, the Third Reich Navy has always trained a large number of carrier-based aircraft pilots. , which can replenish the battle losses on the front line at any time. Navy aircraft can also fly to New Fenlan Island via the Azores Islands. Then, they can be transferred from New Fenlan Island to the aircraft carrier to land. In this case, the Third Reich Air Force Although it needs to cross the entire Atlantic Ocean to replenish the naval carrier-based aircraft force, it is not very difficult. At the same time, it is also very convenient and fast.

When the Third Reich replenishes the losses on the front line and prepares for the next air battle.

Eagle Sauce After receiving the battle damage report, the commander of the Army Air Force, General Henry Arnold, felt as if his heart was bleeding.

"Oh, God! Lost so many fighter planes in one day? If this continues, the entire Army Air Force will not be able to hold on for long! Can this air battle continue?"Admiral Henry Arnold couldn't help but have doubts about this tactic.

Originally, the Eagle Country hoped to use the weak air force sent by the Third Reich to New Island to destroy them in one fell swoop and seize air supremacy. We were ready to land on New Island.

But now it seems that the air power of the Third Reich is not only not weak, but also very strong!

This makes this air battle become an air war of attrition. The Eagle Country is in the air battle Among them, you can’t take advantage of it at all!_To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel APP!··
