Chapter 1465: Blood and Fire Hell One

Chapter 1465 Blood and fire **** (1)

The Edgar ushered in its end first! With another salvo from the battleship Tegerhof, two 350MM shells roared towards the target. When the fifth shell hit this poor cruiser, everything was doomed! It will eventually return its soul to the sea!

With a loud noise, this shell easily knocked open the armor belt of the front ammunition depot of the Edgar! The six-inch armor belt once again proved its fragility. Accompanied by the sound of collapse and metal breaking, the shell flew straight to the ammunition depot and ignited dozens of tons of shells and propellant!

boom! Almost everyone on the battlefield was shocked by this blow! The entire battleship seemed to jump up violently under the action of huge explosive force! The huge hull seems to have left the water! From the point where it was shot, the warship was directly blown into two pieces by the shells it had stored! The small part in front was directly blown up. And most of the hull at the back also fell heavily on the sea!

A large amount of seawater poured in from the breach, and the rear part of the warship quickly tilted forward. Under its own weight and water intake, the slender stern was gradually lifted, and people who were closer could even be seen idling. Propeller. Because of its own weight, the back of the battleship broke again, and the hull behind it sank into the sea in less than 1 minute.

As the flagship, the Ernest was also seriously injured by the Prince Eugen. The power system has completely stopped, and raging fires are burning up and down and drifting on the sea. Count Luknar believed that this hulk was no longer worth wasting precious shells, and the two destroyers quickly approached and used two torpedoes to solve the opponent cleanly at a distance of less than 500 meters. And just as the armored cruiser sank to the bottom of the sea amidst the fire and explosions, in the distance, the main fleet under the command of Earl Spey also began to shell Herezos Port!

"The barracks, warehouses and equipment of the Anglo-French allied forces are almost full of the entire port!" This is the first feeling a seaplane pilot had when he flew over the port of Herezos! The entire port is an annular belt-shaped area. In this area, more than a dozen ships of various kinds are parked at berths. Even in the middle of the night, the shore is still a busy scene, and the cranes orderly unload the houses on the ships. And then load it into the waiting car next to it. More than four-digit personnel are racing against time to load and unload goods.

Close to the port is the French military barracks constructed with tents or other temporary buildings. The white tents are very conspicuous even at night under the shining of lights and moonlight. The military camps that stretch for several kilometers are close to the periphery of the port. The small town itself was also requisitioned by the French, and this small town with a population of only over 3,000 could not accommodate the Entente personnel more than ten times the population of the town.

It is estimated that in the entire town, except for some people who stayed to serve the British and French forces, most of them have left this place of right and wrong. Following the lights, the seaplane pilot could see the horse-drawn carriages and cars neatly parked in the open area of ​​the town, as well as the people who appeared on the road from time to time. There are so many goals that the pilot can't determine where to fight better at the first time!

"Our reconnaissance aircraft found a large number of barracks on the shore, the number even far exceeds the number of French. Many of them are newly constructed." On the flagship Sultan Suleiman I, an officer watched Said embarrassedly at the barracks marked on the sand table.

There is no doubt that many of these things are false targets. Although Britain and France believe that the German Navy is not out to make trouble for itself, the Bavarian Air Force may still visit here. Therefore, they also set up a large number of false targets using a large number of cheap tents and the like, just waiting for you to blow up!

"Then attack the port first, then the vehicles and warehouses! At least the ships in the port are real targets!" Earl Spey said after a brief hesitation.

The remaining 2 Super Dreadnought and 3 Former Dreadnought in the entire fleet soon arrived less than 10 kilometers from the port! The former Dreadnought warship aimed at the ships in the port, while the 2 Super Dreadnought aimed at the port settings, warehouses, parking lots and other targets!

The battle in the distance has made the French wary, but unfortunately, the Earl’s fleet came too fast. Almost at the same time that the Earl of Luknar and the French fleet were fighting, the Earl of Spey’s fleet began to attack the port!

"Fire at full speed! Erase this port from the map!" With the firing order issued, after a few months of silence, the two Turkish battleships were once again fully fired!

boom! The sound of thunder came from the sea outside the port, and the fire from dozens of large-caliber artillery lights instantly illuminated the sea around the fleet. Looking from the port, a sun suddenly appeared on the sea in the distance. general! One by one dark red fireballs rose into the sky, and then flew to this poor port at the limit speed that the naked eye can observe!

"God, what happened!" A Frenchman who was in the town saw the earthquake-like vibrations and skyrocketing fire from the port, his expression was full of despair! Because he knew that tonight, a batch of artillery and ammunition was being loaded and unloaded. It was suddenly attacked at this time. The result was undoubtedly devastating!

A bomb weighing more than 600 KG landed on a building in the port~lightnovelpub.net~ The huge power of the shell directly blew up this three-story building, and there were more than 70 people who had not had time to transfer directly. It turned into a pile of ruins together with the building, and after another shell fell on the ground, it left a huge crater with a depth of more than 2 meters and a diameter of several tens of meters. The massacre is all! The power of the powerful naval gun is fully demonstrated at this moment!

The ships in the port were not spared either, or they were the first to suffer! Three former fearless ships swept the entire berth from north to south. A 4,000-ton transport ship was the first victim. A 12-inch high-explosive bomb landed on the ship’s horizontal deck and opened 2 floors in Ease. After the deck, it exploded in the lower part of the hull! The explosion of dozens of kilograms of high explosive not only destroyed a large number of cabins, but also penetrated the single-layer bottom of the hull. A large amount of sea water poured into the ship along the large and small gaps in less than 2 minutes. , This warship was seated and sank to the bottom of the sea!

The fast transport ship Marseille, with a displacement of up to 8,000 tons and carrying a large amount of ammunition and artillery, tried to escape from the berth, but how could the Germans make it so? The quasi-dreadnought Ferdinand first aimed at this big target, and four 12-inch artillery fired five rounds in less than three minutes.
