Airship crews have always responded with a nonchalant attitude toward aircraft attacks.

"They're just flimsy little birds!"

The evaluation of the airship crews was not unreasonable in this era when the aviation age had just begun.

In terms of defensive firepower, there are six twin-mounted machine guns on the airship. In terms of sturdiness, an airship using a duralumin frame is much stronger than an aircraft using linen and wiring.

Especially before the emergence of tracer incendiary bombs and armor-piercing bombs, machine gun fire was not a big threat to the airship. The most damage was just the air leakage causing the airship to drop.

Although before dispatching today, they received a notification from the engineers of the German flying team, informing them that the Allied Powers used a chain of bullets mixed with armor-piercing bombs and tracer incendiary bombs. According to analysis, it may cause huge damage to the airship.

Although this made the airship crews somewhat worried, and the experience of the airship that attacked Paris last time was the most worrying. However, the parachutes distributed as a whole this time gave the airship crews a lot of peace of mind.

The advantages of spaceships over bombers in terms of their ability to attack solid targets on the ground are self-evident. Not only are they easier to aim as they can move forward slowly, but the power of dropping two hundred kilogram bombs at high altitudes is definitely not a small load.

Yes, the power of small bombs on bombers is comparable.

The German army also achieved great success in the use of airships.

For example, in the Battle of Liege Fortress in Belgium in 1914, if there were no spaceships with huge bomb loads to destroy the huge cannons in the Liege fortification area, and the ground forces at that time had simply relied on the ground forces at that time, then the victory of Liege Fortress in Belgium would have been very difficult.

It's an impossible thing.

Therefore, the large-scale airships equipped by the German army have always been something that the Allied Powers feared. It was not until the last airship that attacked Paris was shot down by a plane that the Allied Powers air forces were surprised to discover that due to the use of "standard aviation bomb belts",

This gave them the ability to shoot down German airships in the air.

It was also the result of the last battle that prompted the Allied Powers to dispatch large-scale air power this time to intercept the German bombing formation.

Therefore, these Allied aircraft, which were not fast and had poor maneuverability, did not cause the crews on the airships to worry too much. After all, the six parallel machine guns on each airship were a nightmare for almost all Allied pilots who came to attack.

But this time, they felt that they had encountered a madman.

Frank Luke, who was following Tang Yunyang, silently prayed to God in his heart.

"God save me, the plane will disintegrate if it dives like this... He is a madman..."

The aircraft at that time were nothing more than a linen-painted skin. Apart from the steel frame, there was nothing trustworthy about the rest of the aircraft.

The situation in front of me was that Madman Tang, who was flying in front, seemed to have a goal only to complete the task, and it seemed that everything else was not considered by him.

Therefore, he dived at an extreme angle, and the engine power was turned to the maximum. The fire flow caused by the bullets sprayed from the nose of the plane really made people think that he was going to clear the bullets on his plane at once.

As the two "Newburg 11"s dived down almost vertically from the sky quickly, almost like lightning, the figures of the two airships of the German bombing formation became larger and larger.

The two men, each aiming at the target, fired almost at the same time. Long orange flames sprayed out from their noses when the machine guns were fired.

In the sky, there was an eye-catching sound of sharp engines and almost continuous machine gun fire. Almost all pilots knew that this would only sound when an aircraft attacked an airship.

Those fighting around the airship, whether they were the pilots of the "Newport 11" or the "Fokker E.III", all abandoned what they were doing and flew away like a flock of sparrows facing a goshawk.

Regardless of the model, except for the metal frame, which is made of wires, steel wires and linen, it is impossible for them to withstand the huge impact of an airship explosion at such a close distance.

The crew on the airship, who had not been too worried until now, looked at the planes, both their own and the enemy's, that were escaping in all directions, and this made them realize that some kind of danger was coming.

The long sound of machine gun fire came from far to near, and a string of bullets flew into the airbag of the airship. Just like a table knife piercing into the smooth cheese, the combination of armor-piercing bullets and tracer incendiary bombs is indeed lethal to the airship.

Super powerful.

The armor-piercing bullet penetrated the armor-protected hydrogen air bag, causing the hydrogen gas contained within it to leak out. The flames at the tail of the dark red ammunition belt ignited the mixture of air, hydrogen and air in the air bag.

"boom……"

First, the airship attacked by Tang Yunyang made a huge explosion. The "rumbling" sound echoed in the sky, shaking the eardrums of almost every pilot.

Red flames burst out in the low-hanging clouds. The huge heat caused the surrounding clouds to form water ripple-like patterns, expanding outward.

These impacts caught up with the bombers that were not far away and were protected by the self-defense firepower of the airship. These bombers, which were equally loaded but seemed weak, were blown away by the shock wave like ships in a storm, and the entire aircraft violently turned to the side.

Faced with this situation, the bombers knew that their fragile wingspans could not withstand such a movement and the pressure it would put on the wings. They made a cross on their chests one by one, and somersaulted down towards the aircraft.

.

Sure enough, the long wingspan of the bomber could not withstand the tearing force caused by the impact, and they broke apart.

"boom……"

This was another airship attacked by Frank Luke. It also exploded violently, and flames engulfed every inch of its bulkhead, revealing its skeletons that were blackened by the flames.

"Mission completed..."

This was something that the members of Lafitte's team, who had been on the disadvantaged side of the German aviation raids, could not imagine. Under such circumstances, they were able to complete the mission, which caused them to fall one by one toward the two burning people.

The big fireball made a cheering sound.

But the current situation of the two madman-like pilots who created these "miracles" was not good. The scorching air also impacted their weak aircraft.

Although the light "Newburg 11" has been strengthened during modification by Mike Prince Company, this kind of impact is still not something their aircraft can withstand.

The two "Newburg 11"s spun and fell apart in two directions.

This incident was something that neither the bombers, who were trying to protect the bombers whose main force in the bombing formation was destroyed and the shock wave completely scattered, nor the Allied pilots who were busy attacking bombers whose self-defense capabilities were extremely poor, did not notice.
