Through some mathematical calculations, Diana roughly determined the location of the German airport. She reported the coordinates to the headquarters. Based on the data provided, Yang Mingzhi made a compass on the regional map on June 17.
The circle also outlines an airplane pattern.
Of course, this female soldier's behavior also proved her good mathematical ability. This surprised Yang Mingzhi. She was no longer just an excellent telegraph operator. This kind of person is really the best to serve in the technical arms.
correct!
Therefore, the area where Gomel City is located has become the focus of radar, and the radar antenna has more time to focus on this city.
On June 18, the daily work of the radar soldiers began after dawn. The girls walked out of the tent, rubbed their sleepy eyes, and turned on the radar skillfully. While it was still dark, the firemen who got up earlier began to
Ignite the boiler and prepare for the radar to start.
During the first shift, the girls did not notice anything unusual. When the second shift came after six o'clock, the pressure on the girls increased in vain.
If yesterday's operation time of the German reconnaissance plane was not an exception, then it is likely that the enemy plane will be discovered at this time in the future. Liu Hongxiu devoted herself to intense work, hoping to make new achievements again. However, she concentrated on monitoring for half an hour, and nothing unusual happened.
None of it happened.
It was Sorkina who took her turn. Seeing her comrades retreating, the female soldier couldn't help but make a judgment - the Germans should not come to investigate again today.
Sorkina relaxed a little, but the abnormality happened at this moment!
She suddenly heard a noise and quickly adjusted the direction of the radar antenna. Isn't that where Gomel is?!
Sorkina couldn't sit still immediately. She took off her earphones, pushed open the door of the listening room, and shouted: "I heard the noise again! It's from the direction of Gomel! It's an enemy plane! It feels worse than yesterday.
strong!"
"Oh my God! Are the Germans crazy?" After muttering a few words, Diana immediately took action.
In this way, at 6:30 in the morning, Yang Mingzhi's sweet dream was interrupted again by the intruding guards.
"What's going on? Did my order yesterday go in vain? What's the emergency?!"
"I'm sorry! Comrade Commander! It's the Germans, and their plane is coming again!"
"What? It's really awesome!"
Everything was just like yesterday, Yang Mingzhi issued the evacuation order again, the loudspeaker in Blacksmith Village sounded the air raid siren again, and the village chief Kavitsky shouted at the top of his lungs.
The enemy was indeed coming, but most villagers thought it was a reconnaissance plane. Based on this mentality, their actions obviously slowed down.
Yang Mingzhi was not so relaxed. He quickly changed his clothes and rushed directly to the headquarters. However, just five minutes after he arrived at the headquarters, Diana reported shocking news.
This is not a so-called reconnaissance aircraft, but a group of fighter jets that form a V-shaped formation! The group has a larger reflective surface, which is reflected in the noise that is deafening! This is deafening in many senses. In order to protect her ears, Sorkina
No longer daring to wear headphones, people outdoors directly saw the black shadow in the sky like a flock of geese!
From the time of the report to the arrival of the enemy plane at Homnich, less than ten minutes had passed! This situation made Yang Mingzhi, who had just woken up and was still a little confused, suddenly wake up.
The radar picked up the whereabouts of the enemy planes when they took off. They arrived at Homnich in such a short time. They must be combat planes. What were they going to do? Yang Mingzhi had already guessed it.
In addition to ordering the radar to continue observing, Yang Mingzhi directly called the mine in plain language.
"Order! Mine garrison, all personnel! Everyone enter the forest to avoid air attacks! No one is allowed to fire on enemy planes and maintain absolute silence."
Yang Mingzhi repeated the order three times in one breath, and emphasized that anyone who disobeyed the order would be shot directly.
Fomin and Yevlov arrived a little later. They learned that this was the enemy's air raid force, and they were like cats with fried hair. They were even more surprised by Yang Mingzhi's "non-resistance" order, especially Yevlov.
The husband shouted in confusion.
"It's unbelievable that the enemy wants to attack us with an air attack. Isn't this the moment when our anti-aircraft machine guns show their power?"
Yang Mingzhi really didn't want to talk to his close comrades, so he could only pat his chest and say confidently: "Look, everyone! The Germans are finally going to take the trap we have laid! In this battle, we don't have to waste bullets, but can get a lot of them."
of dynamite!”
Yevlov knew everything. He knew what the old man was talking about, but he still had doubts.
The current blacksmith village completed the smoke control in a very short period of time, especially when the loudspeaker stopped the alarm and announced that the German army had dispatched a large number of fighter planes to launch air strikes, and the evacuation of the villagers also accelerated.
The entire blacksmith village is hidden in the forest, and important targets are covered by big trees. Because there is not a trace of smoke rising into the sky, the entire village seems to have disappeared!
This was not the target of the German attack, so Paul personally led the army straight to the mine.
Soon, Yang Mingzhi, who was in the dense forest, heard the roar in the air. Through the gaps in the leaves, he raised his binoculars to look for the sound and saw the German fighter planes forming a formation.
“Oops, it’s actually FW190!”
This kind of aircraft was obviously different from the BF109 commonly used by the German army. Yang Mingzhi not only identified it, but the high-power military telescope also made him notice the German weapon-aerial bombs.
After seeing it at a glance, Yang Mingzhi burst into laughter.
"Hey! Belekov, what are you laughing at?!" Yevlov asked as if he was mentally retarded.
"Shouldn't I laugh excitedly? We don't have guns or cannons. The enemy made them for us! They really gave them to us as gifts. How should I send a telegram to my superiors later! For example, tell them that the Germans generously gave our troops
A ton of TNT? The Germans want us to have these explosives to blow them up?!"
"Huh? Are you sure they are a mine explosion?"
"Yes! Now we should prepare manpower to pull out the dumb bombs stuck in the mud! If they are soaked for a long time, those TNT will not be useful!"
Yang Mingzhi was very sure that the Germans had taken the bait, but the Germans knew nothing about the trap.
Paul was full of enthusiasm because he was almost reaching the target. He used the airborne radio to order all his wingmen: "Gentlemen, the target is ahead. Turn on the bomb safety and prepare for dive bombing! Be careful not to waste bombs!"
The FW190 cruised at a high speed of 500 km/h. After it was about to reach the target, the pilots adjusted the throttle valves to reduce the speed to 300 km/h.
This aircraft inherited the glorious tradition of the German aircraft manufacturing industry, that is, the wings are very rigid. It is precisely because of this that the jet ME262 that was later put into service broke the sound barrier for the first time in a dive.
These seven FW190 sorties can also carry out dive bombing, because this is currently the most accurate bombing method. The German army did not develop early precision guided bombs. They can only rely on their own superb technology. It has to be said that these are part of the first
The flying skills of the German aircraft of the 4th Air Force were indeed impeccable.
They were like speeding descents, swooping towards the huge Soviet barracks with a violent whistling sound, and dropped shameful bombs one after another.
At this point in the battle, something strange happened!
"Go to hell, you Russians!" Paul shouted discriminatory slogans and dropped the bomb, then quickly leveled the fighter planes.
There should be a violent explosion in his ears, and he could see a huge mushroom cloud rising from the ground through the porthole.
However, nothing happened! It was as if he didn't drop the bomb at all!
