Chapter 1171: Reduce the encirclement


After the first round of firing of the 305mm coastal defense gun, it was known that there was a huge problem with the firing table. Now, the artillery is also under urgent discussion within the huge gun bay of the shore defense gun.
"We definitely can't hit according to this firing table. We have to make adjustments." An old gunner said: "But we can't use the previous firing table. The interior of the artillery has changed. I suggest that we try. Adjust the shooting, reduce the gauge by five hundred to see how much the distance is reduced."
The shooting of artillery fire is a complicated mechanics problem. It is definitely not a simple oblique throwing motion like when calculating high school physics problems. Air resistance, and even the rotation of the earth, will have an impact.
It doesn't matter when the range is small, the larger the range, the smaller the accumulated error.
At the same time, firing range and elevation angle are definitely not proportional. In short, it is very complicated. Now, the old gunner’s plan is to gradually adjust. After several shots, the error can be found and then improved. This is what artillery often likes. made.
"No, we don't have time. I suggest that the gauge should be reduced by six hundred, and we will shoot again."
Just as they discussed repeatedly, the shells of the three guns were reloaded again, and the commander in the shore defense gun frowned and said: "The gauge is reduced by five hundred and five, and the three guns are put together!"
There is indeed no time. The Germans have a larger caliber than their naval guns, so they won’t give them time to adjust a little bit. In naval battles, it’s actually faster than anyone’s rate of fire, in the same time. Call as many shells as possible to the opponent, and as long as one hits, it will succeed.
"Boom!" At this moment, a huge explosion sounded near the shore defense gun. In the huge vibration, the concrete above the head was rustling dust.
No, the Germans have already begun to attack.
"Boom, boom, boom!" There was no time to hesitate the shore defense artillery here. The three guns fired together, and huge black smoke came out from the muzzle. Thousands of tons of concrete fortifications were all fired. Trembling.
"Boom!" At this moment, the opponent's action was actually faster. After adjusting the firing of the first test shell, the second round of volleys unexpectedly came out. The 380mm armor-piercing projectile hit the front of the turret of this coastal defense gun, ripped a hole, and got into the turret.
This shore defense gun has a total of eight floors from the top to the bottom. It is simply a solid underground fortification. Now, the armor-piercing projectile has exploded violently on the concrete fortification on the second floor.
The armor-piercing shells of tanks are non-charged, and they are completely killed by kinetic energy. The armor-piercing shells of naval guns are different. The armor-piercing shells and grenade are just different in charge.
A huge explosion sounded from the entire gun position. Before the gunpowder fired by the shells had dissipated, a new round of gunpowder smoke evaporated, but in this round of gunpowder smoke, the entire shore defense gun was destroyed.
This is the last 305mm coastal defense gun.
At this time, there are still several 203 mm coastal defense guns remaining.
At this time, they all began to counterattack, but their position was marked by the German Navy. The German Navy did not know how many simulated attacks. Now, the naval guns on the two battleships continue to attack these shore defenses. The artillery bombarded, one after another, one after another, the shore defense guns were destroyed in a violent explosion.
The shelling lasted for half an hour.
During this half an hour, the remaining warships of the Baltic Fleet were only there to watch. They were desperate, the waterway was blocked, and they had no determination to break through the German encirclement.
And now, after the large-caliber coastal defense artillery was destroyed, they also ushered in their doomsday.
During the firing, the "Scharnhorst" was also gradually advancing, and the main guns were constantly roaring. On both sides of the superstructure, double-mounted 150mm secondary guns were also ready at this time. Prepared for battle.
The 380mm main gun is quite powerful in shooting, but this large-caliber naval gun has a barrel life of only a few hundred rounds. If they are used to strike a warship of several thousand tons, it is definitely not worthwhile. Now, this task falls on the secondary gun.
"Attention, aim at the Dezezinski-class frigate ahead and fire!" As the order on the bridge was issued, the secondary gun on one side also fired violently.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Unlike the main gun, the secondary gun has a very fast rate of fire, which can reach 15 rounds per minute. In the case of a double-mounted one, 30 rounds can be fired in that minute.
With good training, they can fire at the maximum rate of fire in the first few minutes.
The barrel of the gun kept emitting flames, and one by one 150mm shells flew towards the Dezezinski-class frigate ten kilometers away.
At this time, the frigate on the opposite side ~EbookFREE.me~ was also thinking about fighting back, but it was a pity that its turret had not turned around, it was hit by at least four 150mm shells, and black smoke came out of the hull. , It has been injured.
At the last juncture, the remaining warships of the Soviet Baltic Fleet wanted to fight against the beasts. They were blocked in the channel. They gradually gathered together, and outside of them was a shrinking encirclement.
A "Narvik" destroyer, at full power, charged towards the Soviet fleet, its bow, with a 150mm main gun, quickly projected shells over it.
This type of destroyer, considered as the main German general destroyer, was produced in the British shipyard to strengthen the German navy. In normal times, it is unknown. Now, in the mission of encircling the Soviet Baltic Fleet, it is the first It showed his power once.
The battleship has a huge hull and poor maneuverability, while the destroyer is much more flexible. Just now because of the threat of shore defense guns, it did not dare to get too close, and now it is finally unnecessary.
This destroyer numbered Z23 was moving forward fast, and under the bombardment of its main artillery, a Soviet frigate was beaten into smoke.
Seeing the majestic appearance of this destroyer, the other destroyers and frigates in the fleet also rushed forward.
Soldiers who do not want to be generals are not good soldiers, and captains who do not want to control advanced warships are not good sailors. How can they be promoted? Of course, it depends on combat exploits. As long as you accumulate enough combat exploits, you will have the opportunity to operate cruisers and even battleships.
The German fleet, like a group of hungry wolves, rushed fiercely towards the crowded Soviet fleet. The destruction of the Baltic Fleet is no longer in suspense. ()
