Soon, the bomber group crossed the English Channel and entered the Dutch coastline.

Colonel Roy poked his head and looked down, not knowing whether it was the clouds or the smoke from the battle below, and there was nothing to see.

"Very good!" Roy said to himself: "Then the German anti-aircraft guns won't see us, but it's best not to do this when we arrive in Ruhr, otherwise we can only lower the height and identify the bombing target!"

Colonel Roy was worried about the German FLAK40 128MM caliber heavy anti-aircraft gun, whose firing height ranged from 10,000 to 14,000 meters, and was specially designed for high-altitude bombers.

However, the Allies basically did not take this anti-aircraft gun seriously.

The reason is very simple. Anti-aircraft guns will never be an effective method to deal with aircraft. It inevitably has several fatal flaws:

First of all, the bigger the anti-aircraft gun, the more obvious the target.

For example, the FLAK40 heavy anti-aircraft gun has a gun barrel of 7.8 meters, and the base and rear loading system are 9.13 meters, which is as high as several floors... This is undoubtedly a nightmare when the German army has no air supremacy. The bombers and fighters escorted by the Allied forces can easily discover them and destroy them.

Secondly, anti-aircraft guns are difficult to deploy in the right places.

Ground anti-aircraft guns are always slow units, especially heavy anti-aircraft guns, with a total weight of 12 tons. Such a stupid guy cannot maneuver according to the route and direction of the enemy aircraft. They can only stay in a certain position and "wait for the rabbit".

This defense method is negative. Unless the Germans can put a circle of heavy anti-aircraft guns on the entire line of defense, it will be difficult to pose a threat to a group of flexible, maneuverable bombers who can choose their own direction of breakthrough.

Despite this, Colonel Roy was still worried that if there were several German heavy anti-aircraft gun positions on the side, he happened to have them.

But now it seems that I can feel relieved, because even if there are heavy high-body cannons below, their gunners can only see a gray sky.

At least one point Colonel Roy is right, and what he needs to worry about is not the large caliber heavy anti-aircraft gun.

The bomber group continued to approach the target. Soon, the sky gradually became clearer. You could vaguely see the buildings below with a telescope, and the further you went, the clearer the target seemed.

One pilot sighed: "Col. You want whatever you want!"

"Today is our lucky day, guys!" said Colonel Roy.

The pilot laughed happily at the same time. Nothing is more fortunate than hearing the word "lucky" on the battlefield.

But they soon found out that they were wrong...

Because at this moment, a flying object with a long tail flew over in front of everyone's eyes with a "whim".

"Enemy situation, enemy situation!" Colonel Roy shouted: "Be ready for battle!"

"God, what is that?"

"I don't know, it's too fast to see what it is?"

"It didn't hit us, right?"

...

Roy quickly changed his position and raised his telescope toward another observation hole, and then he found that the "thing" was turning in horror.

"I doubt it!" said Colonel Roy: "It's not a shell, because it's turning, and it's flying towards us again!"

"Oh my God? Is that a plane?" The pilot responded tremblingly: "This is impossible. I have never seen a plane so fast! And if it was an airplane, why didn't it fire..."

"I don't know, Adam!" Colonel Roy was a little disgusted with his subordinates' fears: "Shut up your mouth and focus on flying the plane, do you understand?"

"Yes, sir!" Adam replied, but his eyes couldn't help but look around.

Generally, people who are pilots should have better psychological qualities than ordinary people, but as mentioned before, there are too many types of aircraft in the US military, especially in mass production for war, so many pilots do not meet the standards.

For example, Adam, who was just a farmer who was spraying pesticides in a small plane before training.

Adam once protested:

"I've only driven the AT400, sir! I don't think I'm suitable for flying a bomber!"

The AT400 is an early model of the American Agricultural and Forestry aircraft. Its characteristics are low technological content, easy driving, and large load capacity. Although it has the disadvantages of slow speed, this is not only not a disadvantage but an advantage for the agricultural and forestry aircraft, because only in this way can the driver have more reaction time.

"Have you sprayed pesticides?" asked the instructor.

"Of course, sir!" Adam replied, "I've worked for two years!"

"Very good, Adam!" The instructor raised his eyebrows: "Then you are already an experienced bomber pilot, because you have been flying the plane again and again in the past two years!"

Adam couldn't help but speak in silence.

The instructor continued: "Now, you have to do nothing more than replace pesticides with bombs and throw them onto the enemy!"

The instructor patted Adam on the shoulder: "Do it well, I'll take good care of you!"

With a "boom", a ball of flame emerged from a bomber beside him. The shock wave generated by the explosion made the bomber driven by Adam tremble.

Adam looked in horror as the bomber dragged black smoke and made a hoarse whistle like an old man on the verge of death.

"Sir!" Adam couldn't help but scream again: "It hit the 'naughty kid', it hit it..."

"I saw it, Adam!" Colonel Roy replied impatiently, grabbed the phone and ordered: "All units, find the enemy's unknown air defense equipment, be prepared for the response!"

"But...sir!" The puzzled voice of other officers came from the walkie-talkie: "How should we deal with it?"

Roy couldn't answer this question because he didn't know either.

Adam said next to him: "I hope they only have one of these things!"

But before he finished speaking, there were "swoosh" below, with long tail flying at high speeds, at least a dozen.

Colonel Roy looked at Adam helplessly and said, "I told you to shut up, Adam!"

At this time, Qin Chuan was watching the sky with a completely asymmetrical battle with a telescope below...

ME163 flew into the air one by one, and then hit the target accurately.

The bombers, called "air fortresses", have turned into targets at this time. Some of them were hit and the wings fell out of balance, some caught fire in the air and exploded, and some were even directly blown up in the air and disintegrated into several pieces and fell from the air.

The German soldiers cheered loudly, and they were bombed by the US B17 for many years and had no choice. At this time, seeing that B17 was beaten so embarrassed, they all felt a thrill of breath.
