Chapter 1351 The Naval Guns Have Long Been Hungry and Thirsty

The Soviets did not take the bait!

It is not so easy to bomb the ground from the air, and it is not the era when there is a global positioning system in the future. As long as you know the coordinates of the other party accurately, you can bomb. In this era, you must find it visually.

It is not difficult to hide the target. Historically, the Soviets even hid the Kremlin. German bombers flew over many times, but they couldn’t find it.

Even a target like the Kremlin can be hidden, let alone a coastal defense artillery position. After careful camouflage, it is impossible to find it from the sky.

Even if the German pilots used the method of strafing the ground, they did not force them out. In short, they were not fooled, and even the anti-aircraft guns were not strafed in the air, and they were not exposed at all.

This presents a problem for the Germans.

"Commander, we can only force their coastal defense guns to fire if we get close and bombard them with naval guns." Fredberg continued to remonstrate: "Now, we can only rely on our warships, especially our Stuttgart. No., the armor is thick, don't care about the opponent's 305mm guns, and when our warships pass by, they will definitely fire."

I have wanted to fight a vigorous naval battle for a long time, but unfortunately, apart from training, I have not let go of the guns in actual combat. How can this make Fredberg reconciled?

He is waiting for an opportunity, he is fighting for an opportunity.

Marshall nodded: "Yeah, it seems that without moving our main battleship, we can't induce the other party to fire, in that case..."

Fredberg looked at Marshal with expectant eyes, but followed, disappointed again.

"Order the Count of Cavour, lead the Italian fleet, and go to the fortress of Sebastor," Marshall said.

Why is it good for them again? Immediately, Fredberg was extremely disappointed, and he was about to turn against Marshall on the spot, but he suppressed it. Of course, he knew that the arrangement of Marshall was better.

Last time I asked the Italian army to intercept several Soviet warships, but none of them stopped them. These guys are too weak to be used as the main force at all, but we have to dig out their value, right? In this case, it would be good for them to lure the enemy!

When they lure the enemy, it must be their own Stukas who can go down to attack. After so many days of tossing, their naval guns have not had a chance to fire?

"General, it's okay for us to fire outside the opponent's range, right? If you don't agree, I will leapfrog to Berlin and ask Führer Cyric for instructions. You intend to suppress us." Fredberg also In the military, the report of leapfrog is a taboo, but he has no scruples to use it as a tool to threaten Machar.

We can't finish this battle, and we haven't done anything, can we?

When speaking, Fredberg stood up and straightened his waist. At this moment, he did not hesitate to offend someone several ranks higher than himself in front of him.

What the hell, if you don't fight me, I won't be convinced!

He was already ready how Mashaer answered him with angry words, who knows, Mashaer actually smiled: "Okay, then at the farthest distance, um, sixty nautical miles, three salvos, why? Sample?"

Hearing the word sixty nautical miles, Fredberg was instantly disappointed.

Fredberg wants to fire outside the opponent's range, so that he can completely guarantee his own safety. The opponent's 305mm naval gun has a maximum range of about 30 kilometers. In fact, in order to take care of the accuracy of the hit, generally Neither will fire from twenty kilometers away.

Therefore, he intends to fire at the opponent's 20 kilometers away, so that with the telescope, he can see the spectacular scene of his own firing, and at the same time, it is also convenient for the gunner to correct the ballistics and strive to use his own naval guns to directly hit theirs. Coastal defense artillery, hit the opponent's turret martyrdom, that scene is called spectacular.

But now, Machar actually made him sixty nautical miles away, sixty nautical miles away, and he couldn't see anything! They are just a few puffs of black smoke rising from the sea, and then, there is no more.

If it is an ordinary 460 naval gun with a limit range of more than 40 kilometers, Germany can maintain a fairly high accuracy at this distance by relying on the spirit of excellence and outstanding craftsmanship.

In this era, no one would have thought that the range of naval guns would be as high as hundreds of nautical miles, but for Germany, this was not a big problem.

This is the rocket extended-range projectile. At the beginning, on the Graff, the 283 mm naval gun fired its own shells for hundreds of nautical miles, successfully deterring American transport ships.

On the Stuttgart, of course, there are also such rocket-extended-range bombs. There is no problem in hitting 100 nautical miles, but the effect is much worse, because the warhead of the rocket-extended-range bomb contains a large amount of solid rocket fuel. , the quality of the warhead is continuously reduced in flight, and there is no normal armor-piercing projectile that is enjoyable to play.

Not to mention sixty nautical miles. This is also because the distance between our side and the opponent's fortress is only sixty nautical miles. If it is further away, Mashaer will definitely say a larger distance.

"Five salvos, let's fire first." Fredberg still compromised, he can only fight for a while now. He was waiting for Mashaer to disagree, but in the end, Mashaer just said lightly: "Okay, I promise you."

Immediately, Fredberg was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he had been tricked by Machar again. Although the shooting of his naval guns would waste the life of the precious naval guns, it was also a demonstration to the Soviets. a means.

Now that Machar has agreed, he is not ambiguous at all: "Attention, turret 1, turret 2, turret 3, maximum charge, extended-range ammunition, target, sixty nautical miles away, Sespo Fortress No. 1 Gorky in the Er Fortress, show me your skills! The school shooting plane, take off immediately!"

Now he doesn't need to move at all, as long as he is here, he can fire directly!

As for the Italian warships, it would take at least an hour to get close to the range of the Soviets' coastal defense guns.

In the bridge, Fredberg issued battle orders one by one. He didn't pay any attention to Machar, who was on the side. What are you afraid of? Machar made it clear just now and agreed to fire first, don't think that he Always being toyed with!

Following his orders, the entire warship began to move, entering the most exciting moment before the battle.
