"Boom" A flame rose again from the May Square in front of the pink Rose Palace, and a large column of smoke was thrown into the sky with gravel, dirt or other things, and then sprinkled heavily on the ground, completely covering a nearby 88 anti-aircraft gun, and the gunners were all gray-faced, and the smell of gunpowder was all over their bodies, if it wasn't for the American bomb that fell a little far, a few of them might have died heroically.
The New Asbanian gunners, who had almost lost their lives, were not intimidated, and without even brushing the smoke and dust off their bodies, they once again threw themselves into the battle with all their might.
One by one, 88 fixed-height fuse shells purchased from Germany were stuffed into the breech, and then the fuse was pulled, and under the thrust of gunpowder deflagration, the shells burst out and rushed up to an altitude of five or six thousand meters, exploding in the air between the seemingly very dense group of American bombers, and exploding a dense mass of "fireworks" in the air.
But few American planes were shot and crashed But the fire and machine groups, which looked very dense from the ground, became scattered and sparse at an altitude of more than six thousand meters.
The sky was so wide that the artillery fire and planes scattered all at once.
The radio proximity fuse shells fired by the Luftwaffe's anti-aircraft artillery units posed some threat.
However, because there was no fire control radar to help with aiming, the power of these German anti-aircraft guns was not fully utilized.
However, the extremely fast surface-to-air missiles that occasionally rise from the ground are often able to shoot down the huge B17 and B24 bombers.
It's a very good day, and both the visually controlled Rhine Daughter missile and the Waterfall missile using a variety of guidance methods can achieve good results.
The Luftwaffe and Navy now have a total of five surface-to-air missile batteries deployed in Buenos Aires, with a total of 20 launchers capable of firing at least 60 missiles per hour.
According to the hit rate of 2030, it will always be able to take out a dozen or twenty American bombers.
However, this loss is really nothing for the American bomber group that almost obscures the sky from the sky.
The bombardment continued, and hundreds of tons of bombs and napalm were dropped, screeching and falling to the ground, and the muffled sound of bomb explosions resounded throughout the city, and gray-white flames mixed with gunpowder smoke and suffocating heat flew away in the sun.
"Mr.
President, I just received a report from the air defense command of the southern region that the Americans dropped a large amount of napalm" A new Asbanian Army officer in a colonel's uniform scurries into the president's temporary office in the basement of the Rose Palace, where he sees Federal President Juan Perón still talking to Evita Duvalt, who is stunningly beautiful but annoying.
The latter is the Secretary of the Ministry of Labor of the Government of the New Federation of Asbania.
It doesn't seem to be a big official, but it's powerful.
This is because the Minister of Labor of the New Federation of Asbania is Juan Perón himself, and this ministry is also the key to the realization of the so-called "social justice of the New Federation of Asbania", and it is also the most powerful ministry in the government of the New Federation of Asbania Unlike the American imagination, where the head of the army relied on soldiers with guns to maintain his dictatorship, Peron came to power through a military coup, but his current basis is not the army, but the working people of New Asbania.
It turned out that under the influence of his mistress Evita Duvalt, Juan Perón did some things that he could not believe in the politics of South American countries after taking power, and he actually gradually fulfilled the promise he made to the people when he seized it For example, land reform aimed at land ownership for the tiller, real raising of wages for the working class, use of state funds to build housing for workers, and nationalization of foreign American investment in New Asbania.
Under this series of measures to buy people's hearts, not only the original Argentine people at the bottom of the country have greatly increased their favorability towards Peron, but even the other two subjects of the federation, Chile and Uruguay, have begun to regard Perón as their father of the nation.
So neither the night air raids of the Americans on Buenos Aires nor the offensive on Chile shook Juan Peron's rule in New Asbania.
But today's air raids on Buenos Aires seem to have taken a bit of a makeover Although hidden in the basement of the presidential palace, Juanperon could sense the scale of the American air raids by the constant falling dust from the ceiling and the dull thud of the roar.
What worries Juan Peron even more is that these American bombers dropped not only ordinary bombs, but also napalm that can cause fires, which may not pose much of a threat to the rich areas with very empty buildings, but they are deadly to the slums with dense shantytowns.
A few petrol bombs could set an entire neighbourhood on fire, and the southern part of the city of Buenos Aires, which had just been hit by napalm, was full of shantytowns where the poor gathered.
It is clear that the Americans had done their homework before the bombing, and they knew exactly where to drop the terrible napalm in order to do the most harm to the inhabitants of Buenos Aires.
"What Americans dropped napalm on the Flores region" Evita Duwalt stood up suddenly, a pair of beautiful eyes erupted with anger and a few crystal tears, the pink fist was also clenched, and her voice trembled a little, "How can they treat those innocent people like this, I lived there, there are many children and old people there" "How's it going there?"
said Juanperon, frowning tightly.
"Mr.
President, it's very bad that the fire is so big that it can't be controlled at all, and I'm afraid that a large number of slum ghettos will be burned down."
"It's so serious," Perón sighed, although the poor people of Buenos Aires now support him so much that the pro-American elites dare not use street politics against him, but it is not known whether the hearts of the poor who died in the air raids and lost their homes will change as a result, which is really unpredictable "Juan," Evita reminded, "we must rush to the Flores area as soon as the bombing is over to comfort the people there."
The Ministry of Labor has long prepared relief materials and organized doctors to carry out rescue at any time. ” Peron nodded, pleased with the efficiency of his secretary.
"Evita, you go first."
Peron furrowed his brows and said, "I'll go and meet with General Falkenhorst and General Canaris later, and now I must urge them to send more fighters to defend Buenos Aires, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."
On the Atlantic coast, near the port of Buenos Aires, smoke filled the air, and artillery fire into the sky was more numerous and more intense than elsewhere in the city.
After the bombing of the Buenos Aires military port, the German antiaircraft artillery unit took over the air defense of this area, deployed a large number of 128 antiaircraft guns that could fire radio proximity fuses, and also set up several missile firing positions, and even the number of anti-aircraft balloons was more than in other places.
And the Buenos Aires slum, which is being attacked by napalm, is near the port area, the fire is spreading everywhere, many new Asbanian Argentines are crying and fleeing from their homes, most of them are old people, women and children, they ran to the heavily guarded port area, some people are placed in strong basements, many solid buildings in the port area have basements, there are still the home port of the original Argentine Navy, there are many fortresses and anti-artillery facilities belonging to the navy, They can all be used as anti-aircraft bunkers, but there are others who refuse to enter the bunkers at all, and just look at their homes that have turned into a sea of fire and cry.
Because their families are still there, there is a lot of bad luck Generals Falkenhorst and Canaris also did not drill dugouts, and their headquarters were located in a former Argentine naval coastal defense battery.
This battery, a product of the South American naval competition of the early 20th century, was so strong that it could withstand the bombardment of the 356 main guns of the Chilean Admiral Latorre-class battleships, and now the high-explosive shells dropped by the Americans naturally can't help it.
The two German generals stood at an observation hole facing the city and looked out, looking at the city that had been flooded by the fire.
"God, where the hell did these Argentines offend the Yankees," said Falkenhorst, "and the Yankees sent so many bombers." ” Although warned by the intelligence services for a long time, Falkenhorst was still not convinced that there would be hundreds to a thousand planes to bomb Buenos Aires.
"It's a sign of weakness," Canaris said, shaking his head, "that the Americans didn't dare to do anything with Europe, and they didn't dare to attack Santiago, and Canaris didn't know that the Americans were preparing to storm there, and only dared to take the unarmed poor Argentines while Kennedy and Hess met to negotiate."
This shows that the Americans, eager for peace, are unwilling to offer sincere conditions and can only intimidate us with such massacres of civilians. ” "Will it work?"
asked Falkenhorst, "will Argentina delay Perón because of this?"
Canaris snorted, "Maybe, maybe not."
But we certainly have a way to maintain Peron's regime, and now that the whole of Europe is behind Peron, the pro-American faction in Argentina has no choice. ” t1706231537:
