The Third Reich

Chapter 200: Shelling Barcelona

"On the night of April 13th, our German navy was attacked by an unknown fleet in the Mediterranean. Forced in self-defense, we rose up to resist and destroyed the other two warships." On the early morning of April 14th, Radio Berlin announced A righteous statement: "We strongly condemn this shameless behavior. Any action that provokes our navy will have to pay a price!"

"We warn some people not to challenge our bottom line! Don't try to expand the dispute, so that there will be no good results!"

There was still some fog in the Mediterranean in the early morning. On the coast defense position of Barcelona, ??the artillery of the Republican Army rubbed their eyes. It was another day!

They crawled out of their camp, washed their faces, brushed their teeth, and prepared to eat breakfast for the day.

For them, the riots that took place in the west are very remote, that is, last year, in a military coup here, **** clashes occurred and only some soldiers died.

Since then, it has been very quiet here.

Spain already has a strong fleet, and it has almost no maritime conflicts with nearby countries. It is mainly a feud with France and borders on land.

Therefore, Spain’s coastal defense force is already a World War II force, and their equipment is only the old 155mm coastal defense gun.

The daily task, watching the sunrise and sunset, until they are discharged, this is the mission of their artillery.

But today, everything has changed.

A soldier squatting on the turret, brushing his teeth with a toothbrush, suddenly stood up and looked at the sea in the distance.

There was a continuous flow of foam from his mouth, and there was an incredible in his eyes.

There, the two warships were moving, and they were far away. Only the outlines could be seen. However, the other side did not emit a particularly thick black smoke, just a faint blue smoke. What kind of warship is that? Why have you never seen it before?

So, with a toothbrush in his mouth, he placed his eyes on the telescope on the side, and adjusted the focal length of the telescope with a foamy hand. Soon, the clear outline of the two warships appeared in the telescope. .

At this moment, the opponent was turning left, exposing the side of the ship hull to the view of the shore defense gun position. In an instant, the soldier shook his heart.

How does this warship look like a German-class German? Continue to adjust the focus. Now, I finally see that the German flag is hung on the opponent's mast!

"Attention, it is the Germans who are coming up!" He shouted loudly: "Hurry up, raise the alarm!"

It is a pity that the alarm hasn't been sounded. Black smoke came out of the muzzle of the two German warships opposite, and the other side had already opened fire!

Fire!

Two German-class, sideways, two 283 mm naval guns, all turned around, six gun barrels, they opened fire violently against the shore defense position here!

This 283 mm naval gun can have a maximum range of 40 kilometers! Now, 20 kilometers away from the shore defense artillery, it is already out of the range of the opponent's artillery fire!

The scene of the salvo of naval guns is a different kind of sight in the daytime.

Amid the deafening sound of the artillery, a white flame emerged from the muzzle. This flame rapidly expanded and expanded, turning into a fireball with a diameter of tens of meters!

The edge of the fireball turned yellow, and the color from the inside to the outside was so gorgeous!

The surrounding sea water was stirred by this fireball and turned violently, forming waves that spread from the inside to the outside!

After a few seconds, the flame began to dissipate slowly, and then, black smoke filled.

This black smoke is bigger than the fireball just now! It spread out quickly and enveloped the nearby sea!

When all the naval guns fired together, you could even see the huge hull, which was forced to retreat by half a meter from the side under the powerful recoil!

This is the salvo of naval guns! If you don't think about it in the design, firing from the side can even capsize the warship!

Two warships, twelve 283mm high explosive grenades, flew to the artillery position here!

The toothbrush in his mouth had been thrown aside, and the soldier of the Spanish Republican Army who had discovered the enemy was throwing a girl quickly and running towards the bunker behind.

How can a weak body compare with the shells of a naval gun?

Unfortunately, no matter how fast he ran, he couldn't fly as fast as a cannonball!

When the shells roared and flew, this kind of sound will make people feel great fear in their hearts!

He turned his head back and saw the cannonball, which had already hit the fort behind him with a surging momentum!

"Boom!" The high-explosive bomb exploded violently, the concrete turret was blown up, the 155mm shore defense gun tilted to the side, and countless fragments were flying around. Among these fragments~www.novelhall.com~ he felt To the body, it was lifted.

The ground was getting higher and higher from him. The moment he lost consciousness, he saw that it turned into a sea of ??fire everywhere!

Shelling Barcelona!

In order to retaliate for the Spanish Republican Army's sneak attack on German warships, Germany launched a crazy revenge!

Yes, the two sides did not declare war. Without declaring war, they dared to sneak attack on German warships. If they did, they would have to pay the price!

The Spaniards attacked the Italian warships and threw a few bombs, but the Italian farts were not released. Therefore, they thought that as long as they said it was an accidental bombing, they could do nothing.

Unfortunately, Germany, not Italy!

The Germans destroyed the bombers they attacked and killed the warships of the Spanish Republican Army. This was not enough. They moved to the northern coastline and bombarded Barcelona on the opposite side!

Barcelona, ??located in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, bordering the Mediterranean, is the second largest city in Spain, the capital of the Autonomous Region of Catalonia, and the capital of the Province of Barcelona.

As a port city in Catalonia, in addition to being a tourist attraction and a world-famous historical and cultural city, it is also Spain's most important trade, industrial and financial base. The Port of Barcelona is also the largest port on the Mediterranean coast.

Almost all of the materials used by the Soviet Union to support Spain were transferred here!

Now the German Navy has shelled here!

The whole world is watching here.

And at this critical moment, as the planner of this operation, Cyric came secretly to a military camp.

"General Cyric, welcome to the Northern Army." A tall Spanish general greeted Cyric as soon as he got out of the car.

"General Mora, come uninvited, and I hope you don't take offense." Cyric said.
