Atlantic, Azores.
This place, which was originally developed by Goldman Sachs as a tourist island, has now completely deviated from its original design intention!
Since the German army occupied it, it has been completely turned into a military base by the German army!
A large number of ships loaded with various weapons and supplies from all over Europe set out from Europe, arrived at the Azores, assembled here, and then prepared to go to North America under the escort of the German Navy.
In addition, a large number of German soldiers coming down from the European battlefield have also been transported to the island, while strengthening the defense of the Azores, preparing to use it as a springboard to land on the mainland of Eagle Sauce!
However, if you enter the inland of the Azores to check, you will find that all this is nothing!
In the inland area of the Azores, several large airports appeared in the center of the island as if they suddenly emerged from the ground overnight!
These airports were planned as early as after Vanelk bought the Azores. However, in order not to arouse the suspicion of the Eagle Sauce people, especially the Eagle Sauce military, these places were not directly built into airports. Instead, the land here was leveled in the name of cargo distribution warehouses, and then paved with cement and asphalt.
If that were the case, it would seem that there would be no problem.
However, after the land in these places was leveled, warehouses were not built, but the characteristics of open land were maintained, which made it possible for the German army to land on the shore and only need to mark the runway, and then build hangars, towers and other buildings next to it to operate!
This was obviously designed by the German army a long time ago. Although there is no airport on the Azores in name, there is actually a large airport for aircraft takeoff and landing!
At this moment, a large number of planes flying from mainland Europe are busy taking off and landing at the airport on the island.
Because it was built as a distribution center for cargo, this airport has a large area. There are currently more than 100 -29 strategic bombers parked on the apron of the airport. In addition, a large number of heavy transport aircraft are still landing on the island.
At this time, more than 200 large aircraft have been assembled on the island!
If someone could look down at the airport from the air at this time, they would be shocked by the densely packed aircraft on the airport! However
, if the Eagle Sauce really has spies here, I am afraid that they will be shocked by more than just this one thing! What is even more shocking is that Mainz, the head of the Third Reich, is now on the island!
“Are you all ready?”
Mainz, who came to the airport to inspect the situation, asked General Goering.
Behind Mainz, many famous generals of the empire were here. This time, France would personally fight in the battlefield, so the headquarters was set up in the Azores. Everyone worked as Model’s staff to give advice to Model and support him in his battle in the Eagle Sauce homeland!
Goering felt the gazes of his colleagues, which made him feel great pressure.
However, he knew the weight of this battle. This can be said to be the battle with the most disparity in troop strength and the greatest risk that the Third Reich has fought so far!
This battle is related to the fate of the empire. , so it is hard for everyone not to care!
The colleagues in the army are far away in the ocean, so they cannot go to the battlefield to support friendly forces in person. The comrades in the navy have already fought side by side with the army in North America, so the only one they can count on is their air force!
However, at such a long distance, the air force can only participate in the war with limited manpower. Most of the fighters and attack aircraft are useless because of their short legs.
The only ones that can be used are a few bombers and transport planes!
And these planes are the biggest variable in this battle that no one expected, and they are also the biggest reliance of the German army!
“100 bombers and 200 transport planes are ready, and a light armored division ready for airdrop is also ready and can set off at any time!”
Model’s troops are insufficient, which is currently the biggest obstacle restricting the German army’s actions in the Eagle Sauce.
The difference in the strength of the enemy and ours is too great, which makes it difficult for the German army to annihilate the enemy on a large scale.
This situation cannot be changed in the short term, so Mainz plans to find another way. In the case that Model’s troops cannot be increased on a large scale, he will use air transport to bypass the Eagle Sauce navy and quickly airlift a light armored division to the Eagle Sauce mainland from the air, further increasing the size of the armored forces in Model’s hands, thereby further expanding the German army’s advantage in armored forces!
Model is good at defense, and strengthening his The strength of the armored forces at his disposal allows him to use all the infantry for defense and all the armored forces for offense. In this way, the power of Model’s flexible defense tactics will be multiplied, and the threat to the U.S. military will become even greater!
Fortunately, the Eagle Sauce gave some opportunities and did not start the war immediately when the German army just landed. Otherwise, the German army might not have enough time to repair the airport on the Azores and prepare for air transport.
At this time, with the completion of the airport in the Azores, German aircraft can use this place as a transit station and depart from here to North America.
Although the aircraft bound for North America cannot return due to the flight distance, however, At this time, Florida was under the control of the German army. They could land at the airport in Florida. Several large cities in southern Florida had airports. After Model arrived in Florida, he immediately mobilized the German immigrants to speed up the construction of airports.
These airports were sufficient to meet the combat needs of the more than 300 German aircraft. When they flew over North America, after completing air transport and bombing, they would land directly at the airport in Florida. After refueling here, they could immediately return to the Azores to continue the next mission!
At the beginning, Model’s expeditionary fleet carried more than 300,000 troops and a large amount of weapons and equipment as well as In addition to combat supplies, there is also a lot of aviation kerosene.
These aviation kerosene are prepared for this operation. With these fuels, the German army can carry out this operation. Otherwise, with the distance between the Azores and the Eagle Sauce, any German aircraft does not have such a long combat radius, and can only sigh in despair!
Of course, this method of transferring twice is still very troublesome and inefficient!
When the conditions of the Florida airport improve in the future, and a large amount of weapons, ammunition, fuel and other supplies are transported there, these German aircraft can stay directly in the Eagle Sauce to fight, and there is no need for such trouble!
