The Third Reich

The four-engine Pei-8 bomber has appeared from the horizon.

It was certainly not here to bomb the oil field. At this time, in the cabin of the Pei-8 bomber, there were densely packed soldiers. The expressions on their faces were serious and their will was extremely firm.

In history, the Soviet Union was the first country to have airborne troops. At that time, during a military parade in Moscow, airborne troops landed from the sky and shocked the entire Western world. At that time, the P-8 bombers were used.

There was a crisis in the Baku oil field, and it was snatched by a group of Iranians!

The Supreme Command made emergency arrangements. In addition to ordering Huo Mingke to risk his death, he also mobilized the airborne troops.

The biggest advantage of airborne troops is their high mobility. At this time, no matter what ground troops are mobilized, it is too late. They can only rush to the Baku oil field from the air.

As the most important source of energy for the Soviets, they deployed an entire army and airborne the Fourth Army.

This army governs the 8th, 9th and 214th Brigade, with about 10,000 people. For the smooth operation of this operation, they were under the direct command of Major General Glazunov, the commander of the airborne troops. Their task was to parachute onto the oil field and kill the enemy here!

Although the Soviet Union established an airborne army-sized force, they lacked enough large transport aircraft. Up to now, the Soviet Union could not produce any large transport aircraft. Only the unreliable PE-8 was used as the main force for their transportation.

It is not enough to rely on the -8 alone. Coupled with a large number of Li-2 transport aircraft, it can only transport one brigade one battalion at a time.

Now, inside the transport plane is the 2nd Battalion of the 8th Brigade of the Paratroopers, with a total of 638 people.

The Li-2 transport aircraft can only transport 25 soldiers at a time, while the Pe-8 bomber can only carry 23 soldiers. In an emergency, the Soviet Air Force can mobilize dozens of aircraft, which is already the largest. Working hard.

Why is the 4-engine Pe-8 bomber not as many as the two-engine Li-2 transport aircraft? Just look at their status.

Vlasov, the commander of the 2nd Battalion, was the first to climb out of the bomber.

When they took off, they were sitting in the bomb bay below. Now, they need to slowly climb from the bomb bay to the connected turret at the back.

When coming out of the back turret, Vlasov felt a wind blow on his head, and the Pe-8 bomber was already flying smoothly.

He followed the fuselage, climbed forward, climbed forward, and climbed to the front wing.

Behind him, a famous paratrooper followed him doing the same moves, as if playing acrobatics in the air.

They had to do this because the Pe-8 is a bomber.

The best way to skydive is on a transport plane with the door open at the tail. As long as people jump out, they will run backward under the action of air resistance and fly downward under the action of gravity, which is completely safe.

However, there is no hatch in the rear of the Pei-8. In order to parachute on the Pei-8, the paratroopers have explored the most incredible technique, which is to slide down the wing!

At this time, the speed of the Pei-8 bomber was not very fast, only more than 200 kilometers per hour, which created the best opportunity for paratroopers. A famous paratrooper climbed onto the wing, like an acrobatic team.

"The parachute drop begins!"

In the strong wind, Vlasov sat up. When he got up, he slid towards the rear end of the wing under the blow of the wind. He put his hands on his chest, ready to posture, and the speed increased. The sooner you follow, you fall off the wing.

He closed his eyes, not wanting to see the rear wing rushing towards his face, as if he could cut him open, only opened his eyes when he counted to three.

Get out of the plane normally!

He pulled the rope of the parachute. When the parachute was opened, his whole body was pulled and successfully opened the parachute!

Above his head, the paratrooper, who was doing the same movements as him, slid towards the rear end of the wing.

A paratrooper had an incorrect posture. As a result, he rolled a few times and fell down!

He struggled hard in the air, balancing his body, but his body was still rolling, and as the falling height became lower and lower, he couldn't help it anymore and pulled the umbrella rope.

The parachute did not open. After the parachute rope was pulled out, it entangled him, and he fell down like a big rock.

He jumped down later, but was the first to land. Seeing this companion, everyone felt heavy.

Paratroopers are the most dangerous. They have death targets during training.

This is the first Pei-8. When it started to fall, the other planes that followed also began to parachute. Compared to the Pei-8, the Li-2 parachuting was much easier.

The side door of the cabin opened, and the paratroopers clasped their arms and jumped down.

On the landing field, densely packed parachutes appeared constantly.

Of course they would not jump directly over the oil field. In that case, the ground defenders could kill them by shooting their rifles at their parachutes.

The landing site is still some distance away from the oil field! After they land, they must quickly gather the formation into a battle formation and advance towards the oil field.

When they landed, the transport plane would return and transport other troops one after another. Their entire 8th Brigade needed to airborne more than 2500 people, and they needed three rounds of transport planes, and the entire army was parachuted over. , I’m afraid that one day is not enough.

They are orderly parachuting the Iranian army on the side of ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, of course they will not wait to see them complete the assembly!

"Quickly, go and kill them!" Reinhardt said: "Where is our plane? Why hasn't it arrived yet?"

As expected, they have to persist until dawn, because after dawn, the air force will arrive, provide them with additional fire support, and insist on the arrival of ground troops.

But who knows that the Soviets have airdropped troops before their own air force has arrived. The Soviets' response is really quick!

In the night's battle, five or six infantry fighting vehicles were lost. Now, the remaining infantry fighting vehicles are immediately started and moved towards the paratrooper's landing field!

The advantage of paratroopers is mobility, and the disadvantage of paratroopers is the ability to regroup. Paratroopers are quite dangerous when they land. Paratroopers are very fragile from landing to assembly.

In particular, paratroopers cannot carry heavy weapons. With only light weapons, they cannot fight against wheeled infantry fighting vehicles at all. However, Iran’s elite troops are holding submachine guns in their hands, with fierce firepower.
