Iron Germany

Chapter 769 Smoothing out (asking for a monthly ticket)

Off the coast of Margate, Germany's five 'Bavarian-class' battleships and five 'Deutschland-class' battleships are frantically pouring shells on the beach.

Whether it is the 380mm main gun of the "Bavarian-class" battleship or the 280mm main gun of the "Deutschland-class" battleship, it is a deadly threat to the fortifications built by the British Army. In front of the powerful main gun, these fortifications are like paper, and will be easily torn to pieces.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The three triple-mounted 380mm main guns of the "Bavaria" battleship, as well as other 150mm secondary guns and 120mm rapid-fire guns, were all firing crazily. After the dense shells exploded, the entire beach was shrouded in gunpowder smoke. Although, it is not clear how much damage was caused to the British. But the only thing that is certain is that the British definitely lost a lot. Even if the British Army retreated to the rear, those fortifications could not be moved away. Once these fortifications are destroyed, what will they use to resist the attack of the wolf-like German army?

"Good job, boys. Shoot out all the shells and tear those British to pieces!" The captain of the battleship 'Bavaria' stood on the deck, watching his own battleship violently bombard the British Army's defensive positions , very excited. What they are attacking now is the British Empire! When the British Empire shocked the world, they never thought that the British Empire would still have such a day.

"boom!"

A 380mm artillery shell fell into a trench. The shell exploded violently, and the tens of meters long trench collapsed in an instant in the explosion.

A machine gun fire point on a British position was hit, and the whole was blown up to the sky. Even the machine gun was blown into parts.

Under the heavy bombardment of the German navy, the British Army's defensive positions suffered great losses. The trenches were blown up, the firepower points were blown up, the barbed wire fences fell apart, and even the landmines buried on the beach were almost destroyed in the intensive explosions.

Of course, the heavy German shelling did not cause too much loss to the British Army. After the German Navy's warships appeared, the British soldiers had already evacuated from the beach, leaving only a handful of observers on the beach. However, the serious damage to the fortifications will cause the British Army to pay greater casualties in the next face of the German attack.

Not only the British positions at Margate were heavily attacked by the German navy, but the British positions at Dover and Folkestone were also heavily bombarded by the German navy. The defensive positions of the British Army were badly destroyed. Except for a very small number of fortifications that were located in the blind spots of shooting, the rest of the fortifications were almost destroyed.

British Army Continental Command is based in Canterbury. Ian Hamilton sits here himself. Canterbury is only ten kilometers from the beach. Therefore, when the gunfire came, it could be faintly heard here.

Admiral Ian Hamilton was drinking coffee when the shelling began. At that time, the coffee cup in his hand was not stable and fell to the ground all of a sudden. The spilled coffee stained his pants. However, Admiral Ian Hamilton didn't care that much anymore.

"What happened?" Admiral Ian Hamilton asked. Even though he already vaguely guessed what happened in his heart, he still wanted to confirm it.

"General, I just received a report that Margate, Dover and Folkestone were bombarded by a large number of German naval battleships at the same time. Our fortifications are being destroyed by the Germans with powerful naval guns!" The adjutant reported road.

"Damn it! Damn the Germans, has their attack finally started?" Admiral Ian Hamilton's face was very ugly. Although, he had expected such a day would come. But deep down in his heart, he still hoped that this day would come later. In this way, they can prepare more safely.

"Report to London that the German attack has begun. Next, the British Empire will undergo a cruel test. If it wins, the British Empire can continue to exist. If it fails, the British Empire will not There is no future," Ian Hamilton said.

"Yes, General." The adjutant immediately went to send a telegram.

"Come here, tell the generals on the front line to pay close attention to the movements of the Germans. Once the Germans launch an attack, they must find a way to resist the Germans, and they must not be able to complete the landing. Otherwise, we will It is almost impossible for the Germans to go to sea again!" Admiral Ian Hamilton ordered.

"Yes, General." A staff officer immediately went to convey the order.

Admiral Ian Hamilton knew that the Germans could not gain a foothold on British soil. Otherwise, they will have to pay a heavy price. The only way to defeat the Germans is to wipe them out on the beach.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The German navy is still firing fiercely, and the naval gunners are working hard to tear all the fortifications of the British Army they can see into pieces. Although, this consumes a lot of shells. But as long as those fortifications can be destroyed to clear the way for the Marines and Army who are about to land, it will be worth it.

While the German Navy bombarded heavily, the Luftwaffe joined in. Six hundred bombers flew to Margate, Dover and Folkestone, and bombed the British Army positions in these three places. One after another, aerial bombs were dropped from the bombers, destroying all the fortifications of the British Army on the ground.

"God! The Germans not only invested so many warships, but also dispatched a large number of planes. Are they trying to wipe out our fortifications? In that case, what can we do to stop the Germans from attacking?" !” A frontline general of the British Army watched all this in horror.

Not only the generals of the British Army, but even the ordinary soldiers knew that they might be in big trouble this time. Before the German army landed, they first used the navy's warships and aircraft to give them a big blow! Once they lose the protection of these fortifications, it is almost impossible for them to resist the attack of the German army.

The morale of the British army defending the beach began to decline under the shelling and bombing of the German army.
