Chapter 552： Naval artillery bombarded the port

♂!

The 406mm naval gun, using the strong charge mode, can fire a grenade, and it can hit a full fifty kilometers away!

At this distance, the gunner of the naval gun has no effect, because he can't see the opposite side, nor can he aim.

On land, you can aim and shoot with predetermined shooting elements, but now, you need a seaplane!

The ar196 water reconnaissance aircraft can not only help warships to detect the water surface in advance, determine whether the nearby seas are safe, and discover enemy warships in advance. It also has another task, which is to fire artillery!

For example, now, it wants to guide its own naval guns to attack a military camp in the port!

At this moment, on the back seat of the water reconnaissance aircraft, the observer Ike was busy nervously. There was an aeronautical chart in front of him. He was constantly using the ruler to make maps, marking them on the aeronautical charts, and at the same time , Constantly looking down.

"091 direction, elevation angle of 31 degrees 43 minutes and 2 seconds, request a test shot." Ike shouted over the radio.

Even if he calculated accurately in advance, he couldn't make his own warship hit all of a sudden, so let's test fire one.

"Boom!" Following his call, the Bismarck here, the middle naval gun of the bow, fired violently. On the muzzle, a huge grenade flew out in a ball of flames.

Ike stared closely at the trajectory of the grenade, watching the grenade, passing through the sky, and at the end of a beautiful arc pointing to the target barracks.

"Boom!" Almost a minute later, this shell, which flew at a speed of 820 meters per second, landed with a bang, exploding a huge pit on the ground.

"The bearing is correct, one kilometer away from the target, raise the elevation angle by 1 degree and 2 minutes. All the naval guns fired." Ike continued to shout.

This shot gave him a lot of confidence, and next time, he will definitely hit all!

"Boom, boom!" This time, a volley of nine naval guns roared across the sea. It seemed that even the sea was trembling. The black smoke enveloped the entire battleship. Nine 406 mm high-explosive grenades flew. To the barracks opposite.

At this time, the barracks were in a panic.

When they found a cannonball flying from the opposite side, they subconsciously just got down, but this way, they can only die faster!

"Boom!" A 406 mm grenade accurately hit the barracks. When this grenade exploded on the ground, it directly exploded a large pit several meters deep, and the explosion made the ground violently shake.

The soldier stuck on the ground instantly felt his front chest was slapped fiercely, as if his belly touched the surface of the water when diving, no, even worse!

There was a tumbling in his stomach, and then, blood came out from the corners of his mouth, and he had been shocked to his internal organs.

The 406 mm high-explosive grenade, every landing, brings the feeling of the end of the world, you know, every shell weighs more than one ton!

How does it feel when a ton of warhead hits the ground?

And one salvo is nine such warheads!

A shell hit a small three-story building. Almost instantly, the small building collapsed. Before it exploded, it was directly destroyed by the kinetic energy of the impact. Then, amid the huge explosion, The whole small building is all torn apart!

This is the power of large-caliber naval guns. In history, Hitler has always been keen on super cannons. For this reason, the power of this cannon is frenzied. It can be said that if the Maginot Line is near the sea, the 406 mm naval gun would still be the same. Able to blast off Maginot’s line of defense, as well as a frontal attack, there is no need to elaborate other plans to attack France.

When a salvo of 406 mm naval guns passed, the barracks here became ruins and lost the value of existence!

On the reconnaissance plane in the sky, the observer Ike continued to use radio communication: "Turn to the right for 1 degree, 13 minutes and 6 seconds, raise the elevation angle by 3 minutes, the target, the coastal defense fortifications near the barracks."

Following his call, the naval gun on the Bismarck battleship slowly turned its angle, and then, a new salvo began again, accurately blasting the shore defenses here into rubble.

Except for the Bismarck, other warships above the 10,000-ton level are pouring their firepower toward the shore.

Fighting is always deadly.

The whole Brest was crowded with people preparing to flee, and now, German artillery fire will inevitably injure some civilians.

It's not good to stay at home, waiting to accept the leadership of the great German, only knowing that running around, being injured, or being bombed is their own life.

A huge function of battleships is to use their guns to attack shores!

After this operation, Germany trumpeted the outstanding contribution of the battleship in this landing operation. The carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier was far less efficient than the battleship, and the battleship’s giant guns were still dominating the ocean and using the sea to dominate the land. The key is.

Moreover, Germany has publicized its own series of battleship construction plans and even plans to use 800mm naval guns with more than 80,000 tons.

These, of course, are fooling the Western world, especially the US.

While Germany continues to promote the advantages of battleships, it has begun to build a large number of aircraft carriers, using the French industry it has acquired to increase the construction of aircraft carriers, and at the same time start construction of several aircraft carriers.

Of course, these are all things to do.

Now, the warships were pouring their own gunfire, and in the naval base on the shore, the commander of the base was terrified. Hearing the noise outside, he contacted the suburbs of Brest. After all, there is the chief of staff of the entire navy there. In this case, only the chief of staff of the navy can command.

The port of Brest was bombed by the German fleet. The German battleships approached the shore and continued to bombard the port!

When receiving the news, Darlang had already realized that the situation was not good. He has stepped down from the front line and returned to his command post.

In the morning, the Germans only dispatched bombers to bomb the military installations in Brest. This is acceptable to Darren. After all, they carried out airborne operations here. Their bombing was to relieve those airborne troops. pressure.

Therefore, Darlan did not care about the German bombing, he only had to concentrate his strength to strangle the landing German paratroopers.

But now, the Germans have even come up with battleships, which is very bad.

This shows that the Germans have new intentions!

Is it? Darren thought of a possibility, and immediately denied it in his heart. Impossible, impossible, how could these Germans act like that?

"Report, the 48th Division was ordered to come and support." At this moment, a voice rang out.
