In the early morning of May 20, in the Highland No. 64 north of the Cohen Peninsula, 29 Fuk-xis of the Luftwaffe-X entered the battlefield by night low-altitude bombing, which was far beyond the expectations of British officers and soldiers. Regardless of the bombing accuracy, the formation of fighter jets whistling through the night sky alone was enough to hit the morale of the other party and boost the morale of their own troops.

Before the Fokker G-51 shining, Fokker-xi was the main fighter model of the Luftwaffe Air Force and was an important role in various military parades. They were active in many wars in the mid-to-late 1920s. Before the Fokker-G51 was put into service, Fokker-xi was not sold in the German industry, so it was always covered with a mysterious veil. Later, some of the members of the Allied camps and some neutral countries with good relations, so the outside world gained more knowledge about their performance.

After being squeezed out of the top spot by later generations, Folk-xi was still the model with the largest number of equipment in the German Air Force for a long time. In addition to continuing to perform conventional air combat missions, they also worked as part-time ground attack aircraft. This change has never been deliberately kept confidential to the outside world, but many people in the outside world are not optimistic about its cross-travel prospects and think it is a waste of nakedness. After all, with Folk-xi's performance and its proven stability on the battlefield, any country outside Germany can serve as the main force of air combat on the front line.

Two days before the war broke out, groups of Folk-xi took off from northern France and bombed important targets such as ports, airports, and transportation hubs in southern Britain with low altitude raids. They usually ran away when they were hit. Even if they were intercepted by enemy planes, they could deal with them with their own combat power, which made the British suffer. Only then did the world amazed at the former king's glory as the charm of the past...

The aviation troops of the Second German Empire usually adopt a three-three system, that is, each wing is under its jurisdiction, each wing consists of three squadrons, each fighter squadron is equipped with 16-20 fighter jets, and each bomber squadron is equipped with 8-12 fighter jets. Those quotations of the ace air wing who are considered elite usually have about five percent of the upward rise, but what really differentiates them from ordinary wings is first-class fighter configuration, excellent pilot teams and first-class air crews. The 11th Air Wing is not among the top ten ace air wings of the Luftwaffe, so it only has one troop equipped with the Folk G-51, and the remaining two brigades are still mainly equipped with the Folk-xi, and a small number of he-/25 combat reconnaissance aircraft that were in service at the same time.

When performing ground attack missions, each Folk-xi can carry eight 10 kilograms of fragmented bombs or a 100 kilogram high-explosion bomb. The usual practice is mixed-mounting, that is, some fighter jets hang four light bombs under each wing of the wings on both sides, and some fighter jets hang a heavy bomb under the belly of the aircraft. If it is a daytime bombing, most pilots will kill a reblade after dropping the bomb and use powerful airborne fire for low-altitude strafing. However, considering that the difficulty coefficient of night flight is much higher, it is already very good to throw the bombs over the enemy's head at one time. The strafing link is naturally skipped by the pilots.

On Height No. 64, pilots affiliated with the 11th Air Wing threw some bombs on the slope of the west side of Height No. 64, that is, the side where the coalition forces launched an attack, accidentally injured many coalition officers and soldiers. Many bombs crossed the top of the mountain and landed on the east slope, and some even deviated from the target area three or four hundred meters, but most of the bombs found the bombing area. After the bombing, the British positions on the top of the mountain fell into a sea of ​​fire.

The fighter planes on the side helped the team overnight. The coalition officers and soldiers who were blocked several times were indeed excited. They followed the few remaining combat vehicles and rushed up desperately, rushing through the bloody restricted area at the forefront of the British position at a bloody price. The battle situation finally reversed. Although the remaining British troops on the top of the mountain were still fighting unusually tenaciously, they could not stand the morale of the coalition officers and soldiers, bravely moving forward. The combination of bayonets and machine guns could not play with the "golden partner" with submachine guns and grenades. One after another, the trench fell into the hands of the coalition, and the British soldiers who abandoned their positions and even surrendered suddenly increased like snowballs.

At 3 a.m., the 64th Highland finally returned to the coalition forces.

When the main force of the 55th Infantry Division of the German Army was in charge of Height No. 64 with the Irish army, the 3rd Marine Division of the German Navy also fought fiercely with the British troops entrenching in Nafe Town with the support of the 55th Infantry Division. As many British ships were still hovering near the sea, the commander of the 3rd Marine Division asked his troops to adopt a strategy of rushing and attacking from the beginning. The two sides quickly fought in Nafe Town. The complex situation made the British ships afraid of throwing weapons and it was difficult to effectively support the combat operations of British ground troops. The coalition forces took the opportunity to give full play to their melee advantages and gradually expelled British troops from the town.

More than an hour before dawn, the British local troops, which had already suffered heavy casualties, no longer took the gamble and attacked wildly like the dawn the day before yesterday. As the height of Highland No. 64 and Nafe Town lost again, they realized that their efforts tonight would turn into a bubble, so they gradually stopped the offensive like the ebb and retreated one after another. When the dawn illuminated the earth, there were no British soldiers in groups in the fields.

After another thrilling night, the coalition officers and soldiers who landed on the Cohen Peninsula were relieved. Looking at the battlefield where corpses were everywhere, people had few winning smiles on their tired faces. A cigarette, a sip of water, and a greeting were the best comfort. The medical soldiers were busy treating the wounded, and the corpse collection team began to clean up the bodies of the dead. The officers patrol the positions back and forth, and captured British soldiers walked by from time to time. They were dejected, listless, with no hatred in their eyes, and more of a fear of the cruel war.

The surviving coalition soldiers were also in awe of the bloody battlefield. In order to block the enemy's attacks two or three times that of their own, the price they paid was very heavy, especially around midnight, the enemy's extremely powerful long-range heavy artillery caused devastating damage to some defensive positions and almost blasted the coalition defense line. In many defensive areas, the coalition sent all reserves, and some newly landed troops were incompatible and hurried to the front line... The battlefield crushed countless living lives like a meat grinder, bloody, bleak, and ruthless, but this is the survival of the fittest. Only the survival of the fittest can stimulate the infinite potential of human civilization.

Two consecutive nights of bloody battles were consumed, and countless manpower and material resources were lost. The rulers of the Kingdom of Great Britain had to welcome the sunrise of the new day with an extremely bitter mood. The soldiers on the front line and the people in the rear seemed to be in a lot of fog and could not find a way to get out of the predicament. The Allies won two miserable victories on the Cohen Peninsula. Some were proud and some were frustrated. The German Navy's longest general William Maschel belonged to the latter. His retreat saved the support fleet headed by the "Deferringer" and "Luzov" from bad luck, but gave the left wing of the landing troops to the British Navy. The coalition front

It almost collapsed because of this. The troops stationed in Nafe and Highland No. 64 were completely lost, and they paid a high price to regain it. These were directly related to Maschel's decision. For the sake of stabilizing the morale of the army, the German General Staff did not make any public comments or personnel punishments on the matter, but in private, there were many voices of reprimand and mocking. In a telegram sent to Maschel in private, German Marshal Hippel bluntly stated that "the glorious tradition of the German Navy disappeared this night", which shows how angry and disappointed he was.

William Maschel was not a reckless man. Under great pressure, he did not return overnight in a dawn. He led the coalition fleet with a full lineup to return to the Nafe Sea. Of course, the British Navy did not give him a chance to re-record. All British ships retreated into the Strait of Manai before dawn, either hid in the hidden harbor fjords everywhere, or returned to the heavily guarded port of Liverpool.

As the Irish Meteorological Department predicted, the British islands ushered in another sunny day. With the endless roar, thousands of coalition fighter jets flew to British airspace with a force of covering the sky and the sun. The bombs fell like raindrops to the military facilities on the coast of Britain and the strategic goals of the inland areas. Although the British Air Force was resisting tenaciously, it could no longer cover everything like the previous two days. Some relatively minor areas were left to guard by ground air defense forces. Without the effective support of the air force, the British army and local fleet were completely in a passive position, and the coalition was able to send additional troops to the Isle of Man and the Cohen Peninsula with extremely little resistance.

With the battle operations on the Isle of Man and the Cohen Peninsula achieved phased victory, the coalition forces quickly rolled out plans, and the 4th land warfare cluster, commanded by Irish local general Eric Maguire, landed on the island of Holy and Anglesey across the sea from the Cohen Peninsula.

In terms of geographical environment, Holly Island and Anglesey Island are more ideal offensive springboards than the Cohen Peninsula. The British team has been deployed here for a long time. According to the information obtained by the spy personnel, by the time the war broke out, the British army deployed more than 30,000 troops on Holly Island and Anglesey Island, and each beach had anti-landing obstacles. A warning position was built near the beachhead, and defense mobilized by towns and ports, and even deployed two powerful chariot troops. If the coalition forces initially chose these two islands as breakthrough points, there would be a fierce bloody battle, and forcibly landing on the Cohen Peninsula seemed extremely dangerous. Once they gained a foothold, the road ahead would be clear.
