"If they were targeting Ellesmere Bridge, the problem would be easier. It's just over 7km in a straight line from us and it's our artillery coverage area.

As long as they dare to come, we can blow them back into the river. ' said an Anmore officer.

"It's not that simple, the enemy knows the defenses around Ellesmere like the back of the hand. And they have air support, although they don't have many fighters, but they have cost us quite a lot.

Our artillery units are temporarily immobilized. Once exposed, it will be bombed by the Orumi Federal Army.

Our anti-aircraft weapons are limited and relatively backward. We can deal with gunships, but not enough against fixed-wing fighters. "Lin Rui shook his head.

"Bombing?" The Anmore officers talked for a while.

"Yes, they will definitely launch air strikes before crossing the river. The only thing we can rely on is the current air defense facilities of the fortress defense circle." The actuary replied,

"However, the U.S. side promised to use their resources to provide early warning. Once the Oromi Federal Army fighter jets take off, they will issue an early warning, giving us time to prepare."

"Just to provide early warning, can't they provide some air defense equipment?" asked an Orumi federal officer.

"Unfortunately, Yankees are like this." The actuary shook his head, "They want to intervene, but they don't want to intervene too deeply.

Advanced air defense systems, including advanced radar systems, and missile systems. They can't give us. Being able to give us early warning is the limit of what they can offer. "

They were still in a meeting, and there was already a lot of chaos outside.

"Air defense alarm! Air defense alarm! Enemy fleet!" The guard officer on duty rushed into the conference room and loudly reminded the officers around him.

The soldiers outside had hurriedly sounded the air defense siren set up beside them, and the shrill sound of the machine reverberated over Ellesmere.

The soldiers of Anmore ran desperately to the anti-aircraft weapons with camouflage nets.

And in the sky far away from them, multiple Oromi Federation bombers were still flying above the clouds. Just looking at the number of these planes is enough to make the hairs of the Oromi Federation officers stand on end.

At least five or six bombers, the Soviet version of the Il-28, flew above the clouds towards Ellesmere.

This bomber, very old, is something from the 1950s. The Il-28 can be said to be an aircraft that combines the technical characteristics of the old and new eras. In the early 1950s, both advanced jet engines were adopted, while the aerodynamic layout of the propeller engines was retained. Therefore, this type is inevitably limited, which affects long-term service.

However, the Il-28 has been exported to 22 countries, but most of them have been retired and are only occasionally seen in the Middle East and Africa.

The Oromi Federal Army is equipped with the Il-28U, which was originally used as a trainer. But after modification, the second cockpit was changed to pilot and bombardier. The lower part is the bombing radome. An internal bomb bay is located in the middle of the fuselage.

The tail of the aircraft is a movable manual self-defense turret, which can seat a shooter and a communicator. Torpedoes and rockets can be hung under the wings, and auxiliary fuel tanks can be hung on the wingtips.

Although simple, it can be regarded as a fighter with bombing ability.

"Damn! They are coming! Everyone hurry up and get into the bunker! Quick!" When Lin Rui saw some Orumi Federal Army planes in the binoculars starting to descend, he immediately determined the bombing target of the enemy planes.

Because it was so sudden, even the soldiers on the air guard in Anmore didn't see the enemy clearly, and these bombers had already begun to descend and prepare to drop bombs.

"Hide!" Several officers shouted loudly to several Anmore soldiers who were stunned there.

"Enemy air attack! Anti-aircraft guns are ready to open fire!" On the edge of the base, an anti-aircraft gun commander shouted loudly, pointing to the sky.

His men are using the fastest speed to point the muzzle of an anti-aircraft gun to the sky.

For the other several anti-aircraft artillery pieces, the soldiers helped to tear off the camouflage nets on the cannons. The unique hissing sound of the dive bombers in the sky had already begun to destroy the eardrums of the Anmore soldiers on the ground.

"Om...woo..." With a long neigh, an Il-28 bomber elegantly rushed down almost vertically from the sky.

Its nose is aimed at the target it wants to attack, and the precise sight is adjusted, and the target to be bombed has been circled in the center.

The Anmore pilot in the cabin gently adjusted his joystick to keep this old but still powerful aircraft in a rapidly descending posture.

"Tutu! Tutu!" On the ground, Anmore's anti-aircraft gun took the lead in kicking off the battle. Amidst the sound of the air defense siren, an anti-aircraft gun began to play.

It's a pity that a fighter jet rushed down to cover its comrades, and it used the cannon on its nose to suppress the roar of the anti-aircraft gun.

It quickly locked on the anti-aircraft gun on the ground, and kept firing shells from the cannon.

A shell hit the ground, and then sputtered a cloud of white smoke. The direction of the nose of the bomber of the Anmore Army was quite stable, so the locked cannon and the shells almost all knocked near the anti-aircraft gun.

The bunker sandbags were blown away by the cannons, and the barrels were knocked down by the shells. Most of the anti-aircraft gun shooters on the ground have now become corpses, lying cold on the gun emplacements.

At this time, the first dive Il-28 bomber had already dropped the aerial bomb it was carrying on the target on the ground.

The plane's goal was to attack other anti-aircraft artillery, directly paralyzing the Anmor army's ability to intercept.

It did its job well, the bomb exploded on Anmore's anti-aircraft artillery position, blasting a huge circular crater all at once.

Although it is an old-fashioned bomber, as long as no one interferes, the bombing hit rate of these bombers is quite high.

Because the impact of the bomb was too great, many of the camouflage nets covered by the equipment were thrown off.

One bomber after another rushed down from the sky, bringing death gracefully to the Anmor army on the ground.

In just a few minutes, the air defense of Anmor's army was completely paralyzed, because some escorting fighter jets could not bear the loneliness, and also joined the sequence of attacking the ground.

And the ferocious anti-aircraft artillery fire on the ground just now was slaughtered by the Orumi Federal Air Force a few minutes later.

Then, Anmore's multiple positions were attacked one by one.

Several Anmore army positions close to the front were heavily attacked by bombers, and they were already caught in a sea of ​​fire.

The headquarters where Lin Rui and others were located was also attacked by bombs. Two bombs blew up the building they were in. If it wasn't for the evacuation in time, the officers participating in the meeting might have been killed there.

It is a pity that the people were evacuated, and the documents, maps, and even radio equipment were not brought out in time.

There were even several Anmore sergeants who died in the building collapsed by the bomb because of the late evacuation.
