The two destroyers behind the house were captured from the British slipway in 194o. After later construction and improvement, they maintained their original appearance and performance, and were crowned as German destroyers in the naval battle of Narvik respectively. These "resurrected" warships were not the first time to participate in the German naval combat. In the blockade of northern Britain, they had brutally aimed their guns at their old owners. Fortunately, the cold war machine had no human soul and thinking.
The headache in this cold north is not only the weather, but also the strength of the fleet is far inferior to that of Britain, Germany and other countries. The Soviet navy has followed the thinking of the Russian war with low cost and high efficiency. They are the most reliable equipment. These weapons, which are mostly based on original contact technology and have amazing destructive power, are widely deployed on the Soviet coastline from Murmansk at the northernmost tip to the Pacific coast of the Gulf of Finland in Sevastopol, the Black Sea. They are the most loyal sentries, quietly and patiently guarding against every enemy who tries to invade!
In order to board the combat fleet in the following six fleet routes, 16 minesweepers with different models accompanied the "prinz eugen" battle formation. Some of them were built in English shipyards, some were branded with the imprint of the Dutch navy, and some were "original" German goods, which made the mine-sweeping tools with the same functional basis implement the marine industry ―― According to the conservative estimation of naval professional officers, it takes less than half a month to completely clean the mines in the waters near Murmansk, so it is a more realistic choice to open a safe passage for attacking ships!
The German bombers have been bombing the military targets around Murmansk for three days, bypassing the North Point and continuing eastward. The black coastline of Soviet Russia finally appeared in front of the fleet. The bombing of one by one caused the black smoke column to become a clearer navigation mark. Because the German navy blocked and controlled the allied forces in the entire East Atlantic and the United States and France did not participate in the war, they transported strategic materials to the Soviet Union through the Arctic route, which seemed to greatly weaken the unique position of the northern ice-free port in the Soviet strategic body. Neither that northern fleet of the Soviet Union nor the force responsible for defending Murmansk air force can effectively prevent the Germans from attacking a few warships moored in Murmansk, and even they slipped back to the White Sea after the first attack!
"It seems that our landing on the 6th will be very smooth … After landing on the 6th, should the soldiers go to Leningrad as if they were crossing the vast and barren Yuan Ye?"
Pointing to the topographic map hanging on the bulkhead, von Delapierre vice admiral gave Edward Dieter, a mountain soldier general who was traveling with the ship, a very realistic problem.
Dieter looked at the map with his hand behind his back. "The general doesn’t think this northern territory is like the skull of the Soviet Union, and Murmansk happens to be in the middle of the skull. Let’s knock a hammer here! Knock the Soviet skull to pieces! "
This strange metaphor doesn’t really say that von Delapierre touched himself. "Perhaps the biggest reason for occupying Murmansk is to transport goods from the north to Finland!" Looking at the railway line, you can always send materials to the Finnish border and then take the road to the hinterland! "
Dieter replied coldly, "the most common means of transportation on Finnish roads are donkey carts and sledges!" "
Feng Delapierre looked at the map stupefied. In reality, it is difficult to trudge through mountains.
Soon captain Luke came from the bridge. "Sir, the Russian coastline is already in our range. Do you want to send a seaplane for reconnaissance and calibration?"
Von Delapierre turned to look at the captain and looked at the odd Dieter "just carry out reconnaissance and ammunition … keep the support for 6 wars!" Oh, tell the ships to strengthen the anti-submarine alert. There are still some submarines in the Soviet Northern Fleet! "
Luke smiled contemptuously. "I heard that they have three or four ships that can sail normally all the year round!"
"Cough! If there is one, you have to be careful! I always feel that the Soviets will not give up resistance so easily! " Feng Delapierre very not easy to look forward to a chance to bear the battle fleet commander naturally dare not have a little slack.

“头盖骨、头盖骨……它也是整个脑袋最硬部分吧！”胸怀壮志山地兵将领独自嘟囔着
第章 祈神
“元帅听说我们已经在芬兰部署了雷达？”
在飞行中f2oo“秃鹰”机舱里6军一级将威廉亚当耐心细致地询问着每一个细节问题并且将它们深深印入脑海中好自己更好履行参谋长职挥
“确切说是赠送给芬兰人两部fu摸4o型6基雷达这也是柏林对芬兰参战一个奖励！”罗根回答道“目前这两部雷达都还没有完到位一号机按计划是周投入使――因重量限制其主要配件是由三架克52分别运送可其中一架在着6时意外滑出了跑道机组成员倒是受了一点轻伤机舱里装运设备箱却撞在了一起结果……”
这似乎是个大局小插曲亚当并没有表现出显感慨和惋惜他说“听说雷达对当前战起到了十分键正是因我们在这方面取得了技术领先才能够在东线挫败数倍于我们苏联军！”
Logan nodded. "At the time of the greatest disparity, our fighter enemy was one to four point four bombers, and one to nine. At that time, many people thought that we would lose the war!"
"When we successfully turned the situation around!" Adam, a general of the 6 th Army, said with deep confidence
"Considering that Finland and the Soviet Union have been bad for a long time, deploying radar in Finland is of great benefit to us … Anyway, we will not let Finns master this equipment technology for a long time to come, and they must rely on our personnel for maintenance and repair!"
When Logan said this, he looked calmly at the ground scenery outside the porthole, which means that the plane has ended its level flight and the front is Helsinki, the capital of Finland. Although Finland has not officially declared war on the Soviet Union, in view of the fact that Soviet troops are stationed in Tallinn more than 100 kilometers away, the German army has sent four bf11o heavy fighter Army Command planes to escort it, which has long been approved by the Finns.
"But after all, Finland is different from Romania or Norway. They have a strong …" Adam didn’t finish this sentence. The metal door of the cockpit cabin suddenly slammed and shocked almost everyone present. This is not the end of the flight. The co-pilot with rich experience didn’t take off his headphones and shouted nervously.
"Sir, there are more than a dozen suspects in the south that Soviet fighter planes are more than ten kilometers away. They are likely to arrive at the airport when we land!"
"What? How is this possible? "
Not only everyone in Logan’s cabin is amazed ―― it’s not surprising that the Soviet Union invaded Finland’s territory, but it’s a long time since they attacked Germany, and today they just appeared when the German flying formation arrived in Helsinki. I’m afraid it’s not a simple coincidence that can explain it!
The officers sitting in the right row of the cabin turned their heads and looked out at the first moment. Although Logan made the same movement consciously, his head was rapidly calculating that the most common Iraqi-16 fighter of the Soviet Union was a flight of more than ten kilometers, which was still two or three minutes. It was almost impossible for the original visual warning Finnish army to respond effectively in such a short time!
"Climb climb immediately! Command escort fighters to occupy tactical altitude! The airport asked them to send fighters immediately! " Logan’s big answer was only ten seconds before the co-pilot gave a warning, and the anxious face immediately disappeared from the cabin door.
The cabin door continues to be open at the co-pilot Li-line escort fighter airport for joint sound and clear entry into the cabin shape, which aggravates people’s nervousness.
The base-level engine room quickly tilted forward, and the flying weight of four BMW 323 engines reached 23 tons. The vulture tried its best to climb high, while the climbing ability of four accompanying bf11o was obviously even better. They easily "threw" this clumsy four-aircraft into the clouds.
After a while, the officers sitting in the right row of the cabin exclaimed, "Damn it, I really touched a Soviet fighter! I think it’s I16. They have … ten, eleven, twelve … sixteen, seventeen, ten … ten! Ten! "
"A dozen and a half!" Logan sneered, "They came prepared this time!"
The co-pilot struggled to turn around and shouted from behind the hatch, "Will the flight altitude be 45oo meters, sir?"
At this time, Logan’s right-hand man and expert in parachuting, Karen said sternly, "Let the plane descend to a height of 1000 meters and then parachute!" "
Although the situation was critical, Logan tried his best to remain calm. He immediately rejected Karen’s proposal, "Then none of us can live!" Keep climbing! Let the escort fighters see the opportunity to impact each other! "
Once again, the co-pilot’s face disappeared from sight, and Logan continued to calculate that the normal ceiling of the vulture was 6ooo meters, and the highest level flight time was 36o kilometers. Even injecting liquid nitrogen into the motive was not enough to make it win the flight competition. In order to survive until the German fighter plane took off from Finland airport, the only thing to rely on except the four escort bf11o was its own defense weapon-the early civilian vulture was naturally unarmed. After entering the German navy, this long-range patrol reconnaissance plane was equipped with a 20 mm machine gun and five 13 mm machine guns. The self-defense ability was relatively strong among various German military aircraft at that time. However, when Hans Rogen took charge of the military and presided over the production period of strategic bombers, the firepower and defense of these aircraft were greatly strengthened, and the technology of remote control machine gun tower imported from the Italian army was partially installed.
Because it often travels near the front line or in areas where enemy planes are present, this special plane belonging to the German Army Command is equipped with 10 machine guns/large-caliber machine guns, which eliminates the dead angle of middle defense to the maximum extent and presses steel plates to strengthen the cockpit, fuel tank and motive position. Compared with this special plane, the real strategic bomber is lacking in bomb quantity and range!
"Guys, get ready for battle!"
This voice shouted out that Logan, who led the paratroopers in wartime, couldn’t help but have a boiling passion. A navigator and four mechanical technicians and gunners were the professional five-person team responsible for operating the self-defense weapons of the aircraft. Except for the pilot and the pilot, they divided their energy to help defend Logan, so that the rest of the passengers and officers could be dispersed to various combat positions together ―― there is both the best place for aircraft defense and the most needed manpower replacement.
Two elderly military staff officers also rolled up their sleeves and went to the first-line engine room, and soon they were left with Logan, William Adam and Hannah, a woman with a full face of horror.
"Don’t be afraid of this difficult situation. We often encounter it at the front line and will soon turn to safety!" Rogan can embody chivalry effectively, but the German army commander can’t fly an airplane, and he can entrust his fate to loyal families after he has arranged it properly.
At this time, the co-pilot voice came from the front. "It’s close to the flight altitude limit. Sir, do you want to take special measures?"
"no! Fly flat around Helsinki! " Logan watched Hannah try to calmly drive the girl who had never experienced such a scene by herself.
With the direct support of the commander-in-chief, Hannah’s nervousness eased a little. She nodded slightly with gratitude and faith in her eyes, but when the cabin whimpered and roared, her whole person still shivered suddenly, and tears could hardly help pouring out of her eyes ―― although these passengers had already asked for courage and adaptability when they were selected, when the real crisis was in front of them, fear and nervousness were still unavoidable.
Through the porthole Logan, I saw those Messerschmitt heavy fighter pouncing on enemies with far more numbers like fierce hounds. Although I16 is an outdated light fighter, its flying time and maneuverability are still enough to suppress bf11o, an unsuccessful day fighter. To protect their masters, these "double hounds" obviously put their own safety at risk!
Approaching, half of the Soviet fighters separated, and the German escort fighters pestered several other fighters and rushed in without hindrance. In the closed engine room, the sound of machine guns and machine guns was clear and harsh, which made people laugh and cry. Except for performance tests and daily training, this special plane weapon had never really participated in the battle!
If there is, if Logan thinks that he must take one squadron bf1o9f to escort him, of course, it is more important to establish an effective radar early warning base in Finland as soon as possible. Even if the aircraft transportation can’t meet the requirements, the German Navy can send two transport submarines to help.
If, after all, it is assumed that in harsh shooting, Soviet fighter jets fired bullets unexpectedly, listening to the bullets hit the metal skin and hit the steel plate, Logan’s heart hung in the air-it seems to be the same mood when he parachuted on the battlefield for the first time!
