Chapter 2170: Bloodfire Bayou III
"The artillery is ready!" When the heavy shells and propellant packs were sent into the barrel one by one, after the huge breech block was slowly closed, the thick and long barrel gradually raised. Groups of artillery machines hovered over the target, and the thunder of the doomsday had been gestated for a long time, and the catastrophe from the sky would completely flood the British city at the mouth of the Hull River!
"Fire!" Along with the firing order, countless fireballs rose into the sky in the German fleet battle line that was several kilometers long! The roar of hundreds of artillery pieces was deafening like a tsunami. Looking from the air, the estuary area was covered by a flash of fire, and the water surface instantly turned into a sea of flames.
Numerous red spots of light jumped up from the sea. Draw arcs in the air that herald death! Like the legendary sword of Damocles, like a meteorite flying out of **** with sulfur and destructive aura, in the first round of salvo, hundreds of shells roared towards each other's targets! After the fire, a cloud of gunpowder smoke filled the sky over the fleet, and huge artillery began to descend to the loading position for reloading. And when the second round of shooting is ready, the shells of the first round of attack have not yet fallen!
A few dozen seconds later, hundreds of shells fell in the designated area. Accompanied by loud noises like landslides, the British factories, ports, and power stations heard violent explosions. Orange flames rose from the target area, and the flames and shock waves from the explosion swept all objects encountered, whether it was buildings, machinery, personnel or anything else, torn to pieces by these violent storms, from the air. Looking at it, you can see a crimson spot of light falling on the ground, and then, with a dazzling flash, an impact ring mixed with flames, dust and smoke spreads quickly around, like a blooming death. Flowers generally turn the area covered by them into ruins!
"The shells have dropped well and can continue to attack!" With the message from the frontal aircraft, the German fleet quickly entered the effective firing phase, and all warships tilted their firepower at almost maximum speed! The artillery of the Bavarian-class battleship fired at a rate of 2.3 rounds per minute or more, and the 350MM artillery could reach a rate of fire of three rounds per minute! In every minute, hundreds of large-caliber artillery shells over hundreds of tons of steel and explosives fly out of the muzzle, and then fall into the British towns!
The continuous shooting swept through all the target areas like a steel storm, and the Germans attacked like a rice transplanter, completely blowing up an inch of land! After the bombardment by the Germans, the entire land was blown up like the surface of the moon. The originally scattered factories turned into piles of rubble. In some places, there were even inches of floating soil. The Germans planned to destroy the estuary area. The British goal of the United Kingdom, like a thunderbolt, kept coming, and the rain of fire made everyone feel deep fear in their hearts!
lies in Ruprecht’s unusual "reputation". The British finally evacuated the civilians in these towns honestly, while some of the left-behind personnel watched the destruction of the cities in the non-attack areas designated by Germany (such as churches and hospitals).
"The Germans are here, as they said in their leaflets, the entire high seas fleet has come to the British offshore, they put cannons on our foreheads, just like we did. In my place. You can clearly see the fire and smoke of the German fleet shooting in the estuary area. The German bombardment was as violent as a volcanic eruption, and the indestructible flame frenzy washed everything on the ground, like karma from hell. The German bombardment target distance I was a long distance away, but I could clearly feel the vibration of the earth. Dust fell on the walls, the windows made a horrible sound, and the power plant in the distance turned into a ruin within ten minutes. , And then the Germans quickly aimed their muzzle at another target, a machinery factory not far from the power plant. Their attacks were as precise as machinery. The entire high seas fleet was performing its mission step by step like a destruction machine." The latter British left-behind officer described the scene like this.
"We have seen the German fleet, they are destroying our city!" The British were not indifferent. Even though Jericho’s fleet would not appear here, the British still sent some fleets to see if it is today. There are opportunities. A group of O-400 bombers first appeared in the southwest of the battlefield.
"The Germans have too many fighter jets, we are going to die now!" An experienced captain looked at the German fighter group hovering over the high seas fleet turning pale.
"We can wait for the arrival of the cover fleet," said the bomber next to him.
"Hehe." The captain didn't say anything, because he knew that even if he waited a while, the fleet of Royal Air Forces that could reach here was still not enough to break through the opponent's interception! Don’t forget ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Every German battleship carries at least 4 planes or seaplanes!
Maybe they really wanted to fight, maybe to maintain the final dignity of the British Empire. In the end, after repeated hesitation, the British fleet that had been patrolling the periphery finally decided to act. They started like knights rushing to the dragon. Called a tragic charge, but it turns out that most fairy tales are deceptive, and this attack is doomed to be a tragedy!
"Your Highness, the British plane is here." Scheer said to the crown prince with some concern. "I don't know whether the air force can guarantee the safety of the fleet. If they attack the fourth battleship detachment that enters the river mouth, it will be very difficult for the capital ships to evade the narrow river mouth."
"We should trust the air force." Ruprecht said with a smile after taking a look at the telegram in his hand. He accumulated over a long time but gathered 200 planes. Now there are more than 300 German fighter jets on his head. Under these circumstances, if the British fleet can be penetrated into a system, then Halder should be ready to retire!
While the sound of artillery on the sea was still roaring, the fighting in the air began. The British fleet rushed to the German fleet like moths on fire. The fighters in front madly attacked the defense line of the German fleet. The combat effectiveness of the British Air Force after the second hemorrhage is really not flattering. Even when fighting over the British homeland, the British exchange ratio is still terrible.
