Chapter 801 This is the order that Eisenhower gave me not to act rashly

Anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns have always been the main air defense weapons and equipment of the German army, and they were also developed and produced by Hitler to deal with air strikes by the British and American Allied forces.

In 1944, the British and American air force was shot down by the German anti-aircraft gun group, and there were about 7,000 bombers, and there were about 30,000 of them injured for repair or fallen aircraft.

Because the 88mm caliber anti-aircraft gun used by the German army at that time could launch grenades weighing about 20 pounds into high altitudes, and in less than 10 seconds it could be blown into about 2,000 pieces of debris, hitting all British and American aircraft within 200 meters.

However, although these anti-aircraft guns have such good combat power, if they want to hit and destroy a heavy British and American bomber, such as the B-17, B-25, and B-29, they will need to fire about 20,000 rounds before they can be shot down.

Therefore, at that time, the German anti-aircraft artillery group and the air defense personnel deployed on various air defense fronts were as high as about 2 million.

However, these are the original historical situation, and the German army does not have so many anti-aircraft guns now, because Chen Yanlong used missiles to replace these anti-aircraft gun groups to conduct airspace and air defense operations in major German cities.

Moreover, in order to more easily detect the arrival of the British and American air force, Chen Yanlong deployed a large number of new radars, including day and night radars.

Moreover, at night, a large number of searchlights, glow bombs and flares were deployed for air defense lighting.

Because the British bomber group prefers night bombing, while the US prefers day bombing.

Because for the British and American troops, or for the Germans, whoever can seize air supremacy will have an incalculable air superiority, and can save the lives of thousands of pilots, and reduce the casualties of many army officers and soldiers.

At least it can bombard a large number of enemy military equipment and facilities, as well as important enemy-behind buildings such as weapon and equipment manufacturing factories, so as to reduce the enemy's weapons and equipment, and reduce the factories that manufacture weapons and equipment, and even have no guarantee of food and people's lives.

However, because the new fighter jets and bombers exchanged by Chen Yanlong have caused a lot of casualties to the British and American Air Force, the British and American Air Force is also very troubled by this.

Just like this time when these people were determined to fight to the death and fight to the advanced German aircraft with their numerical advantage, they also prepared various electronic interference technical measures to deal with the detection and search of German fire control radars, as well as the emergence of German aircraft.

However, their first round of bombing was very smooth and successful. They did not encounter any interception or counterattack by German aircraft, nor did they encounter any attacks from German air defense anti-aircraft guns or air defense weapons and equipment.

These British and American pilots of HNA and Land Airlines who completed the first round of bombing missions were puzzled.

Why was the entire Sicily bombed by them everywhere in seas of fire, ruins and terrifying bomb craters? But there was no German plane appearing or German air defense weapons and equipment appearing on the entire island, and even no figure was found, just as if the entire Sicily was an isolated island without people.

"What exactly happened on Sicily that we couldn't expect?"

"Investigate it now! I want to know what happened?"

"Why did we bomb so fiercely, but we didn't notice any reactions from the German and Italian troops, and even the residents on the island did not react at all?"

But Montgomery, who had calmed down, immediately frowned deeply, and felt uneasy in his heart and gave an order.

"I have sent personnel to investigate, and Commander Eisenhower has already known about this, and we are also asking us not to act rashly for the time being!"

And Bertram Ramsey, who came to Montgomery again, was also a little worried.

"So should our airborne army conduct airborne operations immediately?"

Upon hearing this, Montgomery asked with a deep frown again.

"Yes! And it also requires Patton and our amphibious landing forces to land and fight immediately!"

Bertram Ramsey conveyed Eisenhower truthfully.

“…”

"This is the order Eisenhower gave me not to act rashly?"

After hearing this, Montgomery's face was suddenly covered in darkness and couldn't help but thrust into the corner of her mouth.

"Yes!"

Bertram Ramsey also smiled bitterly.

Then the two of them fell into an awkward atmosphere, but in the end Montgomery shook his head speechlessly and then executed the order.

Although he didn't like this command very much, he also felt that this command might be the best way to detect the causes of the abnormal silence of Sicily under the current circumstances.
