MTL - Jagged Germany-Chapter 1683 larger scale

   On the morning of December 1, at dawn, the German army launched an offensive on Cape Breton Island.

  The German 1st Armored Division, 11th Mechanized Infantry Division and 12th Mechanized Infantry Division, which have already landed, have become the main force. Three divisions of the Marine Corps also participated in the attack. At the same time, other units of the German 1st Army were also hurrying to land.

  Although the British Army suffered heavy losses in yesterday's battle. But then, they still tried to resist. Near Sydney, the British army has assembled more than four infantry divisions and one armored division, intending to defend Sydney. In addition, the British army is also drawing troops from the Nova Scotia Peninsula to urgently reinforce Cape Breton Island. The U.S. Army is also accelerating the dispatch of troops northward so that it can stop the German attack, and even severely damaged the German army on Cape Breton Island in one fell swoop, driving the German army into the sea.

  In the sky, the 1st Aviation Group of the Luftwaffe dispatched dozens of fighter jets and hundreds of ground attack aircraft to cover the army's attack. On the aircraft carriers of the three major fleets of the German Navy at sea, the decks are also full of fighter jets ready to take off. As soon as the US Army Air Forces and RAF fighters appeared, they would immediately take off to meet them.

  At the same time, the German mainland also began to send fighter planes to reinforce the front line. It's just that, to reinforce Newfoundland from Germany, it needs to pass through Norway and Iceland before landing on Newfoundland. This way, plus the time for the pilot to rest and refuel, it will take at least seven or eight hours.

   On the ground, the German offensive was very fierce. In particular, the 1st Armored Division, the "Tiger" heavy tank and the "Black Panther" medium tank, completely crushed the M3 light tank equipped by the British army, as well as the M3 Lee medium tank and M4 medium tank. As for the M26 heavy tank, the British army has relatively few equipment. However, even the M26 heavy tank is far behind the German "Tiger" tank in terms of performance, at most it can rival the German "Black Panther" tank.

  The German 1st Armored Division even equipped a heavy tank battalion composed of "King Tiger" heavy tanks. The "Tiger King" heavy tank in this time and space is even more powerful, and the tank gun has been replaced with a 105mm tank gun. There is no tank in the world that can withstand the "King Tiger" heavy tank.

  This made the German Army's attack on Cape Breton Island so overwhelming that the British Army not only couldn't resist it, but also suffered heavy losses.

  Admiral Wavell, Commander of the British Army's Cape Breton Island Garrison, kept requesting reinforcements. He hoped that the British Army could send more reinforcements to Cape Breton Island, especially armored and anti-tank troops. In addition, he desperately hopes to prevent the German Air Force from bombing them. The German air force and the armored forces fought together, and the British army was completely unable to parry. If this continues, they will probably be defeated soon.

  At 8 o'clock in the morning, the US Army Air Forces and the Royal Air Force once again entered the battle.

  The U.S. Army Air Force dispatched a total of five hundred P-47 fighter jets and P-51 fighter jets this time, and the Royal Air Force also dispatched all the remaining two hundred fighter jets to the front line.

  After the air search radar found the incoming enemy, the German Air Force and Navy immediately began to take off fighter planes to meet the enemy. The fighter jets of the German Air Force's 1st Aviation Group in Newfoundland all took off to meet. The German Navy also took off 42 fighter squadrons to meet.

   It's just that the German Air Force and Navy have tried their best. But in terms of quantity, they are still at a disadvantage. What they can rely on is probably the advantages in the performance of fighter jets and the quality of pilots.

   This air battle is even more intense. More than a thousand fighter jets from both sides fought over Cape Breton Island. Fighter planes have been shot down continuously, not only American and British fighter planes, but also German fighter planes. It's just that the number of German fighter planes lost is far less than that of British fighter planes and American fighter planes.

  However, as more U.S. and British fighters entered the battlefield, the German Air Force and Navy carrier-based aircraft units gradually fell into a disadvantage. When the F4U fighter jets of the U.S. Navy and the Royal Navy entered the battlefield, the U.S. Army and the British Army had a great advantage in the number of fighter jets. Even if the German army is superior in quality. But quantitative changes will eventually lead to qualitative changes.

"God! Are the Americans and British crazy? The number of fighter planes they have put into the battlefield has exceeded 1,000. This is already twice as many as ours." Admiral Ulrich Grauert received After the report, his face was very ugly.

   "Do we still have fighter jets to take off?" Marshal Bromberg's face was livid. The Americans and the British obviously wanted to crush the German Air Force and Navy in one fell swoop through numerical superiority. Once the German army loses air supremacy, the battle on Cape Breton Island may become more difficult.

"Your Excellency Marshal, all the fighter jets of the Air Force have already taken off. Although there are more than 100 fighter jets in the Navy, they need to stay for air defense. In case the Americans launch dive bombers and torpedo attack planes to attack our fleet, They can also intercept," said Admiral Ulrich Gerauert.

   Marshal Bromberg nodded. Although the navy fleet was cruising at sea, it was erratic. But their specific locations have not been leaked, and no one is sure. Therefore, the navy must be more cautious.

   "Let our pilots do their best." Marshal Bromberg said.

"Yes, Marshal. Don't dare, don't worry, Marshal. Our reinforcements will arrive this afternoon. It is not so easy for the Americans and British to defeat us. Our reinforcements will continue to arrive. Yes. The Air Force will speed up the expansion of the airport and the construction of a new airport. Next, we will deploy more fighter planes in Newfoundland. It is absolutely impossible for the Americans and the British to seize air supremacy!" Ulley Admiral C. Grout said.

   "Yes!" Marshal Bromberg nodded. He knew that fighting the Americans and the British for consumption in this way would certainly cause them heavy losses. But again, the Americans and the British will lose a lot. The size of the Luftwaffe and Navy carrier-based aircraft forces is still sufficient to compete with the Americans and British. It is impossible for them to seize air supremacy. At the end of the fight, it will soon be revealed who is unable to hold on first.

   "Let the army speed up the attack, we are running out of time!" Marshal Bromberg then issued an order.
