Chapter 667： Sky Reaper One (1/2)
”What about the Prussian airship? These things are a bit annoying.” Baron Schmidt asked.
”Let’s take a look. Anyway, we are not in a hurry to attack. My plan is to bomb for three days first, and then see the results.” There is a week for the exercise period. Don’t worry, bomb slowly. Prince Ruprecht, who was a champion of the air force theory before crossing, has high expectations for the air force.
”By the way, how is the flight route arranged?” the prince asked.
”The reconnaissance opportunity without weapons passes about 3 kilometers near the viewing platform, while the bomber group carrying bombs will pass 6 kilometers away, but you can rest assured that the colors of the bombers are eye-catching enough, and they are still flying in formation. It must be good,” Harrell said, patting his chest.
”That's good.” The prince nodded and said.
”The exercise has started for about an hour, and there is no sign of action by the ground units on both sides. The Prussian regiment began to raise observation balloons and airships began to enter the field. There seems to be no movement from Bavaria. However, it was only half an hour ago. , Bavaria’s airfield is said to have heard a roar like thunder.” Prince Albert is responsible for briefing all the high-level people of the Allied powers who are watching the battle.
In fact, the prince’s preparation for the air force was still unsuccessful. The 3,000 meters was still a bit farther for a single-engine two-seater reconnaissance plane, and only a small number of people saw it, and because the flight was relatively low, the background was not very good. Except for a few people to see, the small plane soon disappeared in the woods of the hilly area. Then, at this historic moment, there is not even a picture...
”The fifth area is a suspected heavy howitzer company, and the seventh area is determined to be a long-range artillery. Their convoy is too large. The third and second areas should be the opposing material storage points, and two artillery units are advancing along Highway 3. ...” The reconnaissance aircraft codenamed Eagle Eye 1 dutifully reported everything to the rear command via telegram. Soon Colonel Harrell completed the formulation of the attack plan.
”First kill the long-range artillery in the seventh area. Their threat is too great. Then the heavy howitzer in the fifth area will separate a team to attack the supplies in the second area. Then when they come back, they will hit the target driving in on Highway 3. If nothing happens, it will be over at 11 o'clock in the morning. Then there will be a reconnaissance plane in charge of counting the results.” Colonel Harrell said.
”Let's do this. Is our makeshift plane ready for landing?” Ruprecht asked.
”No problem. We have leveled out a piece of land, with additional gasoline reserves and simple maintenance equipment.” Harrell said.
”Let's start! Remember, we set a world record today!” Ruprecht said with a smile. ”Black Hawks attack!”
