Chapter 586 Contest


    Shulka began to implement the deception n on the second night.


    The reason why I did this the next night is mainly because such a trick of confusing the real with the fake needs enough "false" to allow the "true" to fish in troubled waters.


    Otherwise, if the German fuel, ammunition, and fighter nes are avable enough to destroy all the Sovietnding ships, no matter whether they are fake or many, or block them on the east coast, then the Soviet army will not be able to defeat the enemy no matter how they y. .


    So Shulka waited patiently, and Shulka didn''t start the first step n until more than 200nding ships from the Navy joined the team.


    That is, the first batch of more than 300 fakending ships were thrown into the Volga River.


    The 300 fakending ships were divided into five batches, each with a maximum size of 60 ships. ording to the n, there were three transportation lines in the north and two transportation lines in the south.


    In fact, these falsendings cannot run back and forth between the east and west banks, because they are not amphibious like amphibiousnding ships.


    So, thending boats on each shipping line are divided into two parts... bisected by the sandbar and then go back and forth in their respective waters.


    To add to the deception, somending craft were also made on the sandbar, and soldiers from the 33rd Guards Rifle Division even fitted old wheels to it.


    But of course they can''t move on the sandbar, they can only be pushed by soldiers.


    If the Germans were onnd, these scams would be easy to spot.


    But it is night and the German army is in the air. More importantly, once an enemy ne dives, the soldiers pushing thending ship will of course disperse and hide, so it is really not easy for the German pilots to find anything.


    Colonel Fred of the German Army is full of confidence in carrying out the mission.


    In fact, Paulus opened a celebratory Yan for Colonel Fred and his men in the early hours of the same day.


    Although it was a celebration, in fact, Colonel Fred could only invite a limited number of officers, and the other pilots each added a piece of ham and a little honey.


    Paulus drank red wine, then knocked on the ss with a spoon, and when everyone was quiet, he got up and said: "Gentlemen, first of all, wee toe! I think it is not only me who wees you, but also all of us. Warriors who fought at Stalingrad!"


    Everyoneughed.


    They could understand what Paulus meant... The main reason why the German army could not attack Stalingrad for a long time was that it could notpletely block the supply of Stalingrad, but Fred''s night air regimentpletely changed this situation.


    "You may not know what this means!" Paulus continued, raising his ss to Colonel Fred, "but I know...you have filled the gaps in our nights, so that we can go from night to day. Air blockade of Russian transport lines! We doubted this, but... Colonel Fred and his pilots proved it with their courage and flying skills: they made only two attacks, and let the The Russians have given up on transport! Know what that means? Stalingrad is ours!"


    Speaking of Paulus raising his ss, his subordinates also raised their sses to congratte each other.


    Then Paulus changed the subject and said, "However, Colonel Fred, we must not be too careless! I think you have heard of ''Breakout Heroes''!"


    "No, I haven''t heard of him!" Colonel Fred replied with a teasing expression: "Our air force only needs to care about the enemy''s pilots!"


    The surrounding officers couldn''t helpughing.


    This sentence shows that Colonel Fred has actually heard of "Breakout Heroes", but he didn''t take him to heart, because... pilots don''t need to take infantry to heart.


    This is true in some ways, as there seems to be no intersection between pilots and infantry.


    If anything, it was the pilots pouring bombs and bullets on the infantry on the ground who were trying to bring down the aircraft with anti-aircraft fire.


    And this struggle often ends in a disastrous defeat for the infantry.


    However, what Fred didn''t know was that he and the "Breakout Hero" were actuallypeting secretly.


    Paulus nodded and said, "Maybe you are right, he should be the one I need to worry about!"


    "Now you don''t have to worry about him, General!" Colonel Fred raised his ss.


    If it is said that Colonel Fred was still cautious just after arriving in Stalingrad, the two attacksst night that easily cut off the Russian army''s transportation line made him a little underestimated.


    This is not surprising, because Colonel Fred knows: after the two attacks, the Russian army dare not carry out normal transportation, which proves that the Russian army either has no effective way to deal with night fighters, or there are not enough amphibiousnding ships.


    Or both.


    As Colonel Fred reported to Paulus: "They can''t stop us, we always have air superiority! Also, there''s no cover on the Volga. Night bombing is difficult, but we''re veterans of nightbat... as long as they If you dare to transport, it is impossible to escape our interception!"


    Colonel Fred is right.


    At this time, there were already five night air regiments in Germany.


    Therger the serial number, theter it waspiled, and of course the lessbat experience.


    The 3rd Night Aviation Regiment was formed before the outbreak of the Soviet-German Warst year, and it has been nearly a year now.


    Many pilots in this aviation regiment are veterans with richbat experience and then undergo several months of nightbat training... The German night fighter pilot training is very demanding, because it often requires pilots to detect enemy aircraft with only a little light or moonlight And shoot it down, and at the same time, you must always worry about whether it will hit the ground. In addition, you must be able to quickly distinguish the enemy from the outline of the model in the dark, and so on.


    (Note: Nightbat often relies on the target to block the background light source and show the outline for identification. For example, if you look from bottom to top, it is the outline reflected by the moonlight, and if you look from top to bottom, it is the light)


    On this basis, Fred thought it would be easier to attack ship targets on the ground.


    What it needs to pay attention to is the enemy''s anti-aircraft firepower and the distance between the fusge and the ground.


    Fred has great confidence in his subordinates.


    Therefore, on the second night, when Fred received a report from the reconnaissance ne that he found arge number of Russian transport ships, Colonel Fred immediately jumped out of his chair excitedly.


    "It''s time for us to show up, guys!" Colonel Fred said. "It seems that the Russians have amnesia. They have forgotten what we taught themst night! Now, let''s remind them!"
