() The airport and the port of Valletta are the enemy's key defensive areas. A large number of anti-aircraft firepower and troops have been deployed in these two places. In addition, [-] kilometers around the airport and Valletta, the enemy guarding the island has set up a large number of traps. A large number of weapons and troops are hidden.

Zhang Jun received such crucial information, and quickly determined the airborne location. Zhang Jun chose to land on a flat ground 36 kilometers away from the Malta Island Airport. The location is on the east side of Malta Island. In terms of distance, there is no distance at all.Zhang Jun's No. 75 tank is equipped with a long 75 gun. Although the recoil force is a bit larger, the weight of the No. [-] tank of more than ten tons is completely manageable.Of all the tanks in the UK now, none of the models can resist the German Chang [-] tank gun.

另外根据德国国防军的战果统计，上次克里特岛之战中，英国海军4艘巡洋舰、6艘驱逐舰、护卫舰3艘、扫雷舰1艘、鱼雷艇2艘、登陆艇19艘和2艘汽艇被击沉，1艘航母、3艘战列舰、6艘巡洋舰和8艘驱逐舰被击伤。希腊海军1艘装甲舰、12艘驱逐舰和10艘快艇被击沉，还损失了75%的商船。

Although the German Wehrmacht paratroopers lost a lot in the last Battle of Crete, the British Navy also paid a lot of losses in order to rescue and retreat the troops on the island. It can be said that the British Mediterranean Fleet lost one-third of its strength. One-third of the force needs to be repaired to restore its combat power. At this time, the British naval power that can be used on the island of Malta is only one-third of the strength of the British Mediterranean Fleet. Zhang Jun only needs to occupy the airport on the island of Malta, and the ju87 dive bomber , Enough for those British fleets without aircraft carriers to suffer a big loss.As for the British Gibraltar fleet, it was too far from the island of Malta to be of much help at all.

Zhang Jun still sent a telegram to Mussolini. Mussolini gritted his teeth and sent two cruisers and four destroyers. It's better than the army, and it doesn't make a lot of fools.

On January 1940, 1, according to the analysis of the German weather forecast, the weather in the next week would be sunny, so this day was the day when the German SS parachuted into the island of Malta. After more than ten days of preparation in the early stage, Zhang Jun took what he could think of I thought of everything, and Rommel, who couldn't think of it, added.

In addition, Zhang Jun also took advantage of the time when the German Wehrmacht did not pay much attention to paratroopers, and sent some outstanding commanders who participated in the airborne in Crete to the paratrooper division of the SS. I just want to use them as elite infantry. Isn't this a waste? How could Zhang Jun let this happen.

At 26:5 am on the 30th, the sky was only a little bit bright, and the sun was still below the horizon. Zhang Jun began to use all the airports in Greece and Crete to start the third large-scale parachuting in Germany. One armored paratrooper division and two paratrooper divisions were used. The first wave was the first armored paratrooper division, the second SS, and the third paratrooper division was the second wave of airborne. They set off half an hour later than the first wave, etc. After the [-]st Armored Paratrooper Division occupied a safe parachute point, they airborne, and half an hour was enough for them to take down the parachute point.

The commander of the paratroopers, Milu, is now the commander of the armored regiment of the 5st Panzer Parachute Division of the SS. He really doesn't have much experience in commanding tanks, but don't worry, the invincible commander has already sent him a team. Well-known deputy captain Porter.Randolph, Randolph is the No.100 famous German tanker in history, destroying more than [-] enemy tanks.

Last night, Milu asked all the tankers to drive the No. 29 tank into the cabin of the b-[-], and prepared all the parachutes. The fuel in these airborne tanks must be exhausted, and the ammunition must be removed. Now Germany Airborne tanks are still unable to airborne with full combat weight. If these tanks catch fire or cause ammunition to explode due to collision during the airborne process, wouldn't it be a pile of scrap iron that was dropped by air.

In order to solve the problem that the tank may be robbed by the enemy because there is no ammunition or fuel in the airborne, Milu put an airborne squad in each b-29, and the members of this tank are also on this tank, and a base The supplies are also on this b-29. They are airborne separately from the tanks. After the b-29 drops the No. 200 tank, the supplies are airdropped immediately, and finally the personnel parachute. This parachute is much better than the previous ones. It can control the direction of landing. After these people have trained during this period, they are still sure to land [-] meters around the tank.

When three red flares rose in the sky, the b-29s on the airport above Crete began to roar, hundreds of b-29s began to slide slowly towards the runway, and then slowly accelerated, faster and faster .Numerous huge bodies of b-29 soared into the air, and the powerful airflow rolled over, and the commanders on the ground were almost unable to stand still.

After hundreds of b-29s took off, they began to form in the air. Because they were airborne, the b-29s used a tight formation, so that the personnel and equipment might not be too scattered when they were airborne. The distance between them is still two to 29 meters away. This distance is very dangerous for the b-300, and it is a test of the pilot's ability, but these b-29 pilots can all choose German elite pilots, and they can also fly The b-29 has been around for more than two years, and there is still no problem with this level of difficulty.

As the plane took off, there was a buzzing in my ears.Gradually, the sound became quieter, and the plane flew higher and higher, and the flight became more stable.Looking down from the window, the white clouds in the sky are rolling in various poses.Some are like snow maidens, some are like little white rabbits, and some are like mushrooms... Under the golden sunlight, the white clouds seem to be covered with a golden veil, which makes them more beautiful.

Milu finally waited for the plane to take off, and when the plane roared towards the blue sky, he was very excited.For so many years, the goal he had been longing for had been realized, and the real paratrooper combat was about to be realized.The plane pierced through the clouds and fog, and flew to the cruising altitude in a short while.Looking at the clouds in the sky is really beautiful, some are quietly like cotton, and some are like a group of dancing girls, but the plane doesn't seem to be moving, only the sound of the motor is roaring. The b-29 has reached 8000 meters and is cruising at an altitude of [-] meters. At this time, the sky in the atmosphere is blue and blue, and the white clouds are slowly passing away.Milu truly experienced the various forms of white clouds and the infinite mysteries of nature, which felt very wonderful.

"Buzz...buzz..."

The four huge propeller engines of the B-29 roared powerfully, carrying the 810st Armored Paratrooper Division and flew towards the island of Malta. Crete is 29 kilometers away from the island of Malta, which is no distance at all for the B-29. The -1 only needs to carry half of the fuel, and it can easily fly back and forth.The flight time is just over [-] hour.

……

Lieutenant General Freiberg has now become the commander-in-chief of the island defense forces on Malta Island. Last time, Freiberg was a major general last time. Because of his excellent performance in Crete, he soon He was promoted to a rank of one rank, which made Freiberg very elated, but Freiberg still did not dare to be careless in the defense of the island of Malta.

Freiberg used his own troops to set up two defense areas and two trap areas.The first priority of defense is the port of Valletta, and the second defense area is the airport on the island of Malta. There is a reason why Freiberg regards the port of Valletta as the first priority of defense. There are two reasons why Freiberg Decided to focus on Valletta defensively.

First, according to British intelligence analysis, the Italian navy is frequently mobilized and has great intentions to attack the island of Malta. Valletta is the source of supplies for the island of Malta. It can also be said that the port of Valletta is the life channel of the defenders on the island. Not too much.

Second, the geographical location of the island of Malta determines that the island of Malta is only 300 kilometers away from Sicily, Italy, and [-] kilometers away from Africa. The Italian navy is still quite powerful, and Freiberg dare not abandon the port of Valletta. As long as the Italian navy occupies the port of Valletta, Italy can continuously send troops to the island, so the defenders on the island will be dead.

A garrison force of almost 2 people was arranged in Freiberg, Port of Valletta, and a division of troops was deployed in Freiberg around the airport, about 1.2 people, and more than 2 people were in Freiberg at the airport. In the two relatively flat places around the port of Valletta, two large traps were set up, and Freiberg thought about waiting for the German paratroopers to throw themselves into the net.

It's a pity that the two traps set by Freiberg are only less than 36 kilometers away from the airport and the port of Valletta. Zhang Jun chose to parachute [-] kilometers away from the airport on the island of Malta, and waited for Freiberg to find out. After the SS parachute landed, even if they came immediately, it would be too late. As long as the tanks of the SS paratroopers were ready, I don't know how the British gentlemen and soldiers in Freiberg would behave.

Although Milu is the head of the regiment, there is no special treatment on this plane. He also needs to be airborne like ordinary soldiers. Even the commander of the paratroopers is no different. In the last battle of Crete, there was a member of the National Defense Forces. The commander of the paratrooper division was killed.

"Dudu...dudu..."

"We are already over the island of Malta and we will be lowering altitude soon."

"Bang bang... bang bang..."

Countless shells exploded under the b-29. It is a pity that the british anti-aircraft guns cannot reach the b-29. It was shot down, but the parachute location of the b-29 was not where the British deployed anti-aircraft firepower. Zhang Jun would rather choose a longer distance to ensure the safety of the b-29. It seems that he did the right thing.

Soon the b-29 flew over the British anti-aircraft artillery position, and the fireworks that bloomed wantonly in the air gradually faded away. A few minutes later, the green indicator in the Milou cabin flashed:

"Dududu...dududu..."

At this time, the b-29 is close to 500 meters from the ground. After many tests by Milu and others, the No. [-] tank should land intact. This height is the most ideal... (to be continued.)
