The sudden attack suddenly made the British and French airship troops at a loss. They pursued the German army and were about to wipe out the other side's airship troops. As long as the German airship troops were annihilated, the entire French sky belonged to them. They could calmly support the ground and gradually erode the German territory. However, things went against their wishes, and the sudden attack directly left the advantages they had gained before.

As far as I see, at least more than 30 airships are sinking, almost twice as much as before the Germans shot down. The most important thing is that the attack comes from the ground. Compared with the airships, the attack on the ground is more sustainable. It seems to be a machine gun, but no one knows what harms them so much.

I can't figure out how the troops on the ground attacked them, but the commander of the airship was very clear that at this moment, he had to leave here. With one encounter, he lost more than 30 airships, and nearly a hundred of them were under attack. If the machine gun bullets were fired at all, a large amount of metal could tilt every second.

At this time, the weakness of the airship was shown. If it were replaced by an aircraft, use the extra force to suddenly increase the speed and quickly escape from the unfavorable situation. However, the airship has a strong attack power on the ground and is too slow, with a speed of only 60 kilometers per hour. Even if it is flying at full speed, it is about 1 kilometer per minute. Their location is concentrated in the most comfortable area of ​​the anti-aircraft machine gun range. Even if you want to run, it will take time to leave the range of the anti-aircraft machine gun position, at least for more than 3 minutes. However, it is not easy to accelerate the airship that is concentrated together. In 3 minutes, it is almost a nightmare.

The metal storm was raging, and the airship commander had to order the airship to escape in all directions. It has to be said that only by scattering and escaping from all directions can one stay away from the airship position.

Every minute, the airships fell, in just 3 minutes. For British and French airships, it was a mileage of blood and fire. They didn't realize that their airships had spread out and the German airships that had already spread out. They began to gather slowly and bypassed them 5 kilometers away.

Machine gun positions, because machine guns have no eyes, if a German airship enters the machine gun positions, it will be shot down without any difference. According to training, it must be at least 2 kilometers away. For German airships, the lead has been obtained, and there may be dozens or even hundreds of those that have been confirmed to be shot down. The gap between the two sides has been completely smoothed out. Most of the remaining airships are injured. This is the best opportunity, even if you fight for everything, you must completely take down the opponent.

The airship lowered its height and was very difficult to rise again. For this battle, the German airship prepared some helium cylinders to replenish some airbags, but the speed was too slow and the fighter was fleeting. They threw down a large amount of stuff that was pressed down, and some of the personal items were also taken down the rope. Each of them cleaned up about 1,500 kilograms of things. In addition, in a few minutes, helium was constantly replenished. The altitude of the airship slowly rose from about 600 meters to 1,000 meters, which was higher than the height of the other airship.

Mark also knew that this was a tragic battle, especially Britain and France did not invest all its members, and there were about 200 ships still on a high place, overlooking the battlefield. Although he was a little out of touch, it was about 3 kilometers away from the battlefield, but for them who were fully sprinting, it was only two or three minutes.

Therefore, some airships remained at an altitude of 1,000 meters, and the other part was about 200. They had to keep rising. Perhaps, when the remaining airships of the other side arrived, they still did not rise to the same height, but they also had to move forward bravely and entangle them.

This is a choice to burn the boat. Mark knew that even if he had the help of anti-aircraft machine gun positions, it would be very cruel for the airship troops and he had to hold the danger of being disabled. But at this moment, he had no choice. He had to seize this opportunity and kill all the opponent. Otherwise, there would be huge twists and turns in the battle of Paris.

In 5 minutes, a full 5 minutes, in the danger and barrage, the British and French forces left the other side's positions desperately, some moved forward and some moved backward. In short, they could ensure safety.

In the end, the statistics were that in the 5-minute attack, a total of 189 airships that fell to a height of 1,000 meters were shot down, and about 100 were hit hard. Although they were not shot down, they lost their power and could not leave the area of ​​the machine gun position. These almost 300 airships were destined to be shot down.

The remaining airships were also injured, with no more than 150 of them completely unharmed. They hurriedly escaped the position. When they thought they were lucky enough to escape, they encountered a head-on attack from Germany and had an absolute advantage, with about 450 to 480.

It seems that the number of both sides has been pulled down to the same level, but everyone knows that this is unequal. The remaining 200 British and French ships did not make the right choice at the most critical moment, and did not rush over to pick up their airships at the first time, but avoided them far away, fearing that some machine gun positions would appear.

Later, when the German airships rushed towards the British and French airships, these airships woke up as dreams and rushed towards the German airships. But in these few minutes, the 200 airships that Germany faced them had risen to the same height as them, 1,500 meters, and even kept rising. They were only in a panic as they woke up, but it was too late, and they were most likely to have the upper hand because their surprise and negligence disappeared, and the next was a real battle.

If the airship was not attacked by the anti-aircraft machine gun, it was evenly matched, then the airship that had just taken off the anti-aircraft machine gun and was still in a scattered state can only be the targets of being pursued by the Germans, 250 ships against 280 ships, and even had a certain advantage in number, but 100 ships were injured in one kind of injuries, which was scared by the British and French coalition forces.

At the beginning, the British and French coalition forces would not be afraid, even if they were replaced by the British and French coalition forces 250 to 280, they would not be afraid. However, the number advantage may not necessarily fail. In air combat, there is a bullet to solve a airship. Both sides are equipped with large-caliber machine cannons, and before they are shot, there may be anything.

Now, unknown underground artillery fire has caused at least 250 airships to be shot down, which is a blow. God knows if there are anything similar below. The soldiers understood almost immediately that this should be a machine gun. I don’t know why it can be shot so high. But for a country, as long as it goes all out, it can be made, and as much as it thinks.

If it is based on the country, will the woods below be arranged in the woods below? Is it a complete conspiracy to attract them to attack? The scattered airships are based on this premise that they do not turn around and attack, but run away in a panic way.

Britain and France underestimated the difficulty of this anti-aircraft machine gun, but at this moment, for soldiers, the first intuition was that this had lost the opportunity. In order to avoid the 12 machine gun positions, they fled in a hurry, and there were about 280 airships. However, there were less than 50 people who really got together, divided into more than 50 different teams. This was fatal for this stop and also announced their end.

The German army could openly carry out annihilation with more attacks and less attacks, just like what had been done over the North Sea, Britain and France could only escape in panic. After a slight asymmetric pursuit, Germany ended the world's largest air battle with an extremely huge advantage.

In the two battle situations, except for the results of anti-aircraft machine guns, 200 vs. 200, the fight was 108:180, and less than 20 airships left fled in panic. Basically, the shooting down ratio of 3:5 was relatively normal. Another battle group, with a ratio of 250:280, was 65:220, which was almost three times the difference. In the entire air battle, the Germans lost a total of 192 airships, but the British lost a relatively large amount, 715. After this battle, only 65 airships finally fled back to Paris, and the rest were shot down to the north of Paris.

The world's first large-scale strategic air battle ended in just 2 hours, creating a history of air combat and even human combat history. Germany not only achieved a strong shooting-down ratio, but also had extremely asymmetrical damage. More than 2,700 people were killed in the battle and 10,800 were captured, while its own damage was only more than 600.

The reason why so many shots are shot down is that the number of casualties is extremely small compared to the number of shot down is that the airship is not an airplane. Its specific gravity is lighter than the air. Even if it is broken through the airbag, loses its buoyancy and begins to fall, it will not fall sharply and will slowly descend, only at an altitude of 800 meters. When it is underground, it will be killed in a very small way. Most of them are directly hit by the opponent's bullet during the battle and injured and killed.

However, this air battle showed a huge problem. The entire war zone was within the control area of ​​the German Army. When the airship landed, it was not in the air. The troops on the ground had long passed. The airship soldiers who were already tilted around had no other way except surrender, and there were even many airships that were injured and captured.

The Germans suffered huge losses, but most airships can be repaired. As long as the skeleton is not completely destroyed, the airbags and helium are ready-made, including more than 200 German ships and more than 700 British and French ships. The future repair may be around 60%. Now, Germany’s real losses are only personnel, and other losses are not only minimal, but also make up for the previous losses. (~^~)
