Beiyang 1917

July 1918oo, 7

In the press release distributed to the media by the Volga Federal Government, it strongly protested that the Luftwaffe stationed in Ukraine violated the airspace of the Volga Federation, and demanded that the Ukrainian Autonomous Government take all responsibility for this!In the news battle report of the Allied Forces Command on the Eastern Front, it was announced that the 728th night coalition air force repelled the invaders who violated the Volga Federation airspace, shot down and injured more than 14 enemy aircraft, and the coalition air force lost 7 aircraft. "", the whole text is hand-typed

Whether it's the press release of the Volga Federal Government or the battle report of the Eastern Allied Forces Command of the Allied Powers, at the end they all declared sternly that the aggressors will definitely pay the price!

In fact, the number of enemy planes shot down by the coalition air force in less than an hour of fierce air battle that night was only half of that of the Germans. The result was 15:8, and the coalition forces won. The wing leader didn't sink or be frightened by this. In his opinion, the fokkerdii of his fighter squadron in the night battle were all white painted targets, which was too obvious, and this was the first thing to suffer. ""Look at the latest chapter

Secondly, neither the squadron leader Bruno Ruzel of the 26th Fighter Squadron nor Goering himself underestimated the firepower threat of the SE5 of the coalition air force after it was replaced with the Browning 127 large-caliber aviation machine gun, and who knows This group of rookies in the coalition air force can hold the trigger and fire from 800 meters away?

As for the flying skills and driving level of the Chinese pilots of the coalition air force, Goering and Ruzel's evaluations are average, but the opponent's firepower is indeed very strong when they adopt dense formation combat, and SE5 itself is an aircraft with different performances in all aspects. Fighter who lost to fokkerdiii.

Of course, it’s true that the Chinese pilots were lucky. Damn, it’s a rookie if you fire the first shot from 500 meters away. Even the aces of the German army may not be able to do it, but the opponent’s tactics are advanced. But it was dull, always gathering formations, and missed many opportunities for single-plane attacks to shoot down the opponent. In the eyes of several German aces, the coalition air force was not invulnerable.

So early the next morning, Goering, the captain of the German 1st Fighter Wing, informed the German 10th Army Headquarters in Kiev and the German Front Enemy Headquarters in Kharkov about the battle situation and losses of the previous night. On the one hand, he asked the Berlin Air Force Command for reinforcements and supplementary aircraft and pilots.

At the same time, Herman William Göring used his powers as the captain of the regiment to mobilize all fighter squadrons on the north bank of the Dnieper River early in the morning on July 7, and temporarily moved to Krakow, south of Kharkov. The Snora field airport is concentrated, and it is located between Kharkov and Dnepropetrovsk, and it can advance and retreat freely.

戈林先后调集了第1战斗机联队的第4、第6、第10、第11、第28等5个战斗机中队一共80架fokkerdiidr型战机集中到了克拉斯诺拉野战机场，加上联队部和第26中队的5架，一共85架战机，决定对伏尔加联邦境内的联军航空队展开大编队作战和报复。

At the same time, Grindo kept an eye out, and through his personal relationship in the Hermann von François headquarters, he temporarily borrowed two anti-aircraft artillery battalions in charge of Kharkov's air defense and moved them to Kharkov. The field airfield to the south and the anti-aircraft artillery battalion that originally protected the field airfield formed an air defense firepower network.

Last night, Lieutenant Ruzel's 26th Fighter Squadron and Goering's unit were almost wiped out, except for the leader of the 4 teams and Goering's successful return flight. 14 planes and 13 ace pilots were lost. Such a tragedy Goering felt that the result of the battle was a disgrace to the entire German 1st Fighter Wing, and it was also a shame to Hermann William Goering. The debt was paid in blood, and the honor lost on the battlefield can only be recovered from the battlefield!

At this time, the domestic press in Germany is still unknown to the Ukrainian front on the Eastern Front. The famous German Ace Flying Wing suffered such a tragic blow and casualties, but the German Air Force Command in Berlin was surprised when it received the report. Of course, this is far from the time to reprimand Herman William Goering, the new captain.

In the middle of the night on July 7th, the Berlin Air Force Command gave Goering an order to learn from the lesson and restore the situation as soon as possible. Before the Allied Powers made a big fuss and publicized the victory of the 28 air battle, they had to use decisive actions to give the Allied Forces from the battlefield. The air team saved the honor of the Luftwaffe with a fatal blow!Redeem the honor of the von Richthofen Fighter Wing.

At the same time, the German Army Air Corps Command in Berlin ordered that the second batch of 2 fokkerdiii, which were the latest off-line from the Fokker aircraft factory, be transported to Ukraine by rail and train as soon as possible to refit and supplement the 64st fighter wing. The other fighter wings transferred second-line leave pilots from two squadrons to urgently supplement Ukraine's No. 1 Fighter Wing.

In Herman William Goering's view, the rookies of the coalition forces will definitely not be as lucky as they were last night in the daytime battle. Under the clear sky, the white paint of their fighters is more concealed than the opponent's. As for the opponent's long-distance fire, Goering also has a way to deal with it, that is, let the ace pilot of the German army take advantage of the flight technology, take advantage of the fokkerdiii's light as a swallow, climb fast, and have a small turning radius, and use maneuvering aerobatics to counter the opponent's firepower Peaceful flying speed.

On the side of the coalition forces, the boys of the aviation team are of course gratifying for their victory in the first battle, but whether it is Wang Geng at the coalition headquarters in Samara, or Huang Jingbo, the commander of the air force at the frontline air force headquarters in Tsaritsin, The major general is fully psychologically prepared for the Luftwaffe's retaliatory action the next day.

Of course, casualties are inevitable in wars. In Wang Geng's view, it is a huge victory for the Chinese pilots of the Allied Air Force to achieve a 1:1 battle loss ratio. With one month of intensive training and nearly half a year of on-the-job training, the actual experience of real air combat is almost blank, and it is more about the exercises and training of the usual combat subjects.
