Chapter 1753: Shelling on the Other Shore (Add. 2)

Gotthob is the capital and largest city on the island of Greenland, and this city built on the seashore also has a large number of beaches, in winter, the beach is directly covered by ice, and in summer, as the ice melts, the beach is exposed.

On this beach, the island's guards built all kinds of facilities to block the landing, such as pillboxes and artillery positions on the edge of the city, and even many batteries disguised as seaside villas, although there are no particularly large coastal defense guns, the caliber of more than 200 mm is zero, and there are only more than 100 mm of shore defense guns, which is also a great harm to the landing force.

For all these reasons, they did not lay mines, and when the war was over, it would be extremely difficult to remove them, and after a winter, the bottom would become frozen, and no one knew when they would be dug up.

Although there were no mines, they made a large number of obstacles that slowed down the landing: barbed wire, anti-tank repulsors made of steel bars, demon cubes with hollow triangular pyramids, anti-tank trenches for armored vehicles, "dragon's teeth" type obstacles, and wooden stakes on the beach with blades that could cut through the landing craft......

At the same time, for fear of being assisted by a large number of paratroopers, they also planted wooden stakes vertically in the open space a little further away from the coastal beachhead, which would definitely be a death zone if the paratroopers came down.

These measures were well built, and now two infantry divisions of the 2nd Army are guarding here, along with a part of the Greenland native volunteers, preparing to resist the German invasion.

It's just that the first round of shelling made them feel that the end was coming.

"Boom!" As the shells of the huge 330 mm battleship's naval guns fell, the moment it made contact with the ground, the fierce fire began to spread from the center to all sides, and the orange-yellow light represented absolute death.

The light was rapidly spreading in all directions, black smoke rising from above, and a powerful shockwave rushed towards all directions.

The huge anti-tank rejection, the various obstacles, at this moment, were immediately shaken away, the one at the center of the explosion was immediately incinerated, and the one a little farther away was lifted away, like leaves in a storm.

The huge shock wave was also shaking everyone's body, and in the fortifications not far behind, several soldiers had a fishy breath in their throats, and then, with a whoop, spit out blood.

The sound of the explosion irritated the eardrums, and many people only heard the sound of this explosion, and then, all kinds of sounds could not be heard, and the world seemed to be silent for an instant.

They were deafened.

The 330-mm high-explosive bomb was already so powerful, and when the smoke cleared, a crater with a diameter of 10 meters appeared at the point of impact, the dust was flying, and the earth was trembling.

The battleship's guns attacked the ground so cruelly!

This is only a 330 mm naval gun, if it is a 460 naval gun of the Hindenburg class, the scene of shooting is even more magnificent.

Everyone felt fear, and at this moment, the earth was trembling and burning, as if it were a place of death, and they were so close to death that it seemed that the next moment it would be their turn.

Not far from Gotthob, the Green Valley military port.

More than a dozen patrol ships of the Greenland Coast Guard are docked in the harbor, with a maximum displacement of less than 1,000 tons, and in the harbor, Thomas, the captain of the Greenland Coast Guard, is anxiously looking at his signal corps.

"What's going on? Can't reach the Governor yet? Thomas asked.

All of them had to fight, bravely fighting to defend Greenland, but now, just as the battle had begun, they suddenly lost news of their superiors.

It's as if they're all gone.

Gotthob's headquarters was taken out, all the high-ranking officials were taken away, the news did not spread, only the troops in charge of the pursuit knew, but unfortunately this force was eliminated by helicopters outside the city, and the rest did not go back, in this era without the Internet, the news spread very slowly.

"We couldn't get in touch, we couldn't find the governor, we couldn't find the American generals, we couldn't find the American consuls, we couldn't find anything."

Hearing this, Thomas slammed his fist on the table: "These soft-boned guys have been talking all day long about living and dying with Greenland, but now, when the danger really comes, they all run away!" ”

Thomas was disappointed.

"So what do we do?" The subordinate asked.

"Although we are the Coast Guard, we also want to protect our islands, and now, I order all our Coast Guard patrol ships to set off and attack the enemy!"

Using some 1,000-ton boats to attack a battleship force of tens of thousands of tons is definitely a brain drain, and now, Thomas also knows that his side will face the end of annihilation, but he is not afraid.

The enemy is attacking him, and if he can't protect his territory, then why are he wearing this uniform?

Get ready to sail!

The ignition of a heavy oil boiler is very laborious and requires the use of diesel fuel to support combustion, so if it is stopped for a short time, the boiler will maintain a minimum level of combustion, and when needed, the fire power will be increased.

At the same time, the water in the boiler is always under pressure, and as long as the power of the boiler is increased, it can be dispatched.

With Thomas's order, puffs of black smoke came out of the patrol ships and heavy oil boilers, and they began to burn at an accelerated pace. The violent combustion in the boiler allowed the steam to begin to regain pressure, the steam turbine started, and the warship was about to leave the port!

"It was discovered that the warship of the Greenland Coast Guard began to set sail with fire and was preparing to go to sea." At this time, in the sky, on a reconnaissance plane, the pilot immediately reported by radio.

Yesterday's sea and air battle seemed to completely cripple the Americans, and today, the entire fleet flew dozens of carrier-based planes to look for the enemy in all directions, only to find that the Americans did not dare to take to the skies to fight.

In this way, air supremacy completely fell into the hands of the German fleet, and a plane was responsible for reconnoitring the port here, and it turned out that these weak patrol ships wanted to be dispatched?

Isn't this looking for death?

As the radio waves were transmitted back to the fleet, a group of HS129 carrier-based attack planes quickly rose from the deck and pounced fiercely.

If these Greenland patrol ships obediently stay in the harbor and don't come out, then they can be kept until after the war, and continue to patrol the neighborhood or something, and if they plan to come out to make trouble, then let them know the end of the mantis arm as a car.
