The quality of the French railway guns was very poor, and there were often accidents of explosions, but the Germans lacked all kinds of weapons, so they could only be carefully left for use.

The Gustav cannon developed by the Germans themselves is now similar to a mascot, who has the leisure to wait for that giant beast to arrive at the front line?

The specially laid railway was to stretch from Romania to Crimea, and by the time Gustav's cannon reached Sevastopol, the Soviet defenders inside might have starved to death......

Therefore, those railway guns that could not be used without special railways and did not need to change the width of the rails were the favorite railway guns of the German army.

Affected by this, the heaviest artillery in the hands of Army Group D, in addition to the Karl mortar gun, was only the strange French railway gun.

As one of the few heavy support artillery pieces in the army with a caliber of more than 300 mm, the French train gun itself also belongs to the kind of disposable consumables that will be missing one if one is used badly.

However, these behemoths did become the most reliable companions of the German soldiers on the Crimean Peninsula.

These French soldiers, who did not have time to fire a single shot of the super artillery in the war on the Western Front, rejuvenated their second youth here.

Watching these terrifying ultimate weapons shoot out thick smoke and fire that obscure the sky, all the German soldiers who operated these guns were glad that these giant guns did not really fire at the Germans during the battle on the Western Front.

It was possible to unload the ammunition from the ammunition supply wagons with improvised cranes, and then it took a lot of effort from soldiers to get the huge shells into the chambers.

Most of the work was carried out by Romanian and Italian soldiers, after all, these guns were more or less at risk of being borechambered.

The Romanians and Italians, however, did not mind this, because in their opinion the casualty rate of artillery borechambering was much lower than that of front-line infantry.

These artillerymen come to the front line to serve for about a year, and then they can get a certificate of military service in their home country and are eligible to retire and return home.

You can serve in the second-line artillery, and then obtain the qualification for retirement, which can be said to be a more attractive state of service among civilians, and the German artillery is also willing to hand over the terrible weapon of the French train gun, which can explode at any time, to these foreign regiments.

The Foreign Legion was called the Foreign Legion because, unlike the Italian Expeditionary Force and the Romanian Expeditionary Force, they were directly placed under the command of the German Army, and the management and supply were also under the German Army Group D.

The foreign regiments worked hard to reload the shells and then left the standby cannon under the command of the German officers.

With an order, the huge cannon once again erupted with dazzling fire, and a huge projectile weighing almost 400 kilograms rushed towards the distant target.

Artillery, which is almost the most accurate means of long-range strike in this era, will fly 20 kilometers with a precision flight of a few meters and an error of up to ten meters, and fall on the position where the observation post needs it to land.

With a deafening explosion, the entire target area shook and the dust flew up with the tremors, filling a radius of one kilometer with a choking smell.

There was a large circular crater in the ground, which was faintly hot in the slightly hot air at the end of September.

The shell exploded next to a reinforced concrete machine-gun bunker, shattering the concrete walls on the sides of the bunker and shattering the hard roof.

Then, the machine-gun bunker stopped spewing tongues of fire and made no more noise. But on this position, there are dozens of strong machine-gun bunkers like this.

The Sevastopol Fortress Group is the strongest fortress built by the Soviets, and it is also the largest, strongest and most expensive fortress complex in the world.

Except for the Soviet Union, no country would build such a fortress at any cost, and simply fill an entire mountain with cement and steel bars.

Who would have thought that a perverted country would use standards beyond the times to build a fortress that cannot be conquered?

Vasilevsky did not know what kind of state the marshals who had previously chosen to commit suicide or die in battle were.

Are those marshals like he is now, huddled in the corners of the solid basement, with dim and flickering lights, waiting for the last moment?

A few hours earlier, the news of the German occupation of Kerch had been delivered to his desk - the Crimean Peninsula, and now he was the only fortress that belonged to the Soviet Union.

Even, on the surface, most of the fortress had belonged to Germany - all that was left for him was a large number of underground buildings and a few remaining surface defensive positions.

I started yesterday and have been playing until now. At this moment, the German soldiers were less than 1 km away from the main position of the Soviet defensive fortress of Sevastopol.

Although the less than 1-kilometer road was covered with pillboxes and mines, and there were trenches and camouflaged anti-tank gun positions, this still did not give Vasilevsky a moment of peace of mind.

Because, the positions that were lost before were also full of barbed wire and mines, and they were also full of pillboxes and trenches - but they were all lost, and they were all lost in less than a few hours.

The artillery support of the battleships made all the Soviet insistence and counterattacks pale in comparison, and it was only a matter of time before the Crimea finally fell.

What is depressing is that this time will not be very long - the reason why Moscow can hold out for more than two months is because there are nearly a million Soviet troops in Moscow's encirclement.

And Sevastopol, there are only 30,000 or 50,000 soldiers at full capacity, and this number is also a major reason why Vasilevsky could not hold out for a long time.
