The sun has set in the west, a fiery sunset in the west, and the whole sea is dyed red by the sun.

The sea is sparkling and full of fiery red colors, on the one hand, because of the sun's rays, and on the other hand, blood.

One by one, the battleships were sunk, and the German naval guns fired more and more fiercely, and as the distance gradually approached, the accuracy became higher and higher, and later, as soon as the artillery fire passed, a Soviet battleship was sunk.

Countless sailors jumped from the ship, they swam towards the port of Kronstadt, and until now, the Germans have adhered to the honor of soldiers, and they did not shoot at the Soviet sailors on the sea.

Because there is no need.

The sea is cold, and in such waters, the cold will kill them, and they must swim quickly to shore to have a chance of survival.

Trive paddled with both hands, and he was so clever that he took most of his clothes off when he dived.

Swimming in clothes will never keep warm, when the clothes are covered with water, the clothes will sink and sink into the water, which is the biggest threat to swimmers.

He did not look back, and at this time, the German battleships were two or three nautical miles away from them, and some small German battleships were even only one nautical mile from their shore.

The shore artillery positions on the shore were destroyed, and at this time, the entire Soviet harbor was a dead silence, as if under the bombardment of German artillery, not a single mouth was left alive.

Suddenly, behind him, there was a rumbling sound, not the roar of a steam engine, but more like the low roar of a marine diesel engine.

He turned his head to look back, and the shape of the bow of the ship was peculiar, and it looked as if it was still raised upward.

Landing ships, landing ships of the Germans, targets of the Germans, actually to occupy here!

Compared to history, the German Navy is not only much larger in size, but also has a wide range of types, in addition to naval aviation, it also has marines.

In addition to sinking the Soviets' Baltic Fleet, they had another task, which was to capture Kronstadt, an important military port, and occupy the entire island of Kotling.

Originally, the whole fleet sailed together, but because the landing ships were slow, they lagged behind when the battleships came at full speed.

Fortunately, I still caught up.

The German Marines have not been established for a long time, and they are almost even more backward than the naval aviation, but they have shown their unique value in previous conflicts, such as landing in France and Britain, and the Marines are active, and their size has long been expanded to more than ten divisions.

And now, along with the formation, came the 6th Marine Regiment, the commander of the regiment, Reinhardt Haldegen, a good Marine who has now grown to the rank of regimental commander, who is also the commander of this landing in Kronstadt.

In the cabin of the landing ship, there was a smell of diesel. The Panther 2 tanks were neatly arranged in the cabin, and at this time, their engines were already rumbling and starting to start.

There was a slight vibration from the hull, and the beach had been successfully rushed, and the hatch in front of it was open, and there was a bright light in front of him.

"Go, start, strike!" Reinhardt shouted loudly, and his command car, taking the lead, drove out of the cabin.

This kind of landing ship can change the water level in the ballast water tank, let the bow of the ship, and then rush directly to the beach, after which, the equipment inside can be directly driven out.

This method of landing was quite efficient, and now, on the laxly defended beachhead, there were no Soviet soldiers coming out to block it.

This is a naval base, and it is a naval base that has almost been abandoned, the equipment here has been moved forward, and only the shore defense artillery troops are guarding here, and in the shelling just now, under the bombardment of the Stuka bombers, the coastal defense artillery has lost its combat capability.

The combat effectiveness of the Red Navy is amazing, in history, they have become an army, and they still fought well, but that was a premise, that is, an excellent commander.

The Red Navy became a howling monster under the leadership of Kuznetsov, and now, they are all rabbits.

"Quick, quick, advance to the city and capture the headquarters of the naval base in Kronstadt." Reinhardt continued to shout, urging his troops to move quickly.

Tanks and infantry fighting vehicles were moving rapidly towards the city of Kronstadt.

At this time, the sky was slowly darkening, and it only took two hours for the flags of sickles and hammers to fall on the base headquarters building in the city, and the banner of the iron cross fluttered high.

Kronstadt fortress, fallen.

When the news reached Moscow, the people in the base camp who were still tirelessly following the situation at the front were stunned.

Stalin's hand, raising the smoke pot, put it down again.

All this time, despite the constant deterioration of the situation at the front, Stalin never gave up, for him nothing could defeat him. But now, the fall of this fortress gave Stalin a sense of foreboding.

The Baltic Fleet was actually annihilated at home, and the Soviets, can they hold out to the end?

If the belief in victory is lost, then many terrible things will arise, such as surrender, and Stalin was convinced of this.

As commander-in-chief, Stalin had to see further, and at the same time, there were those present who were as discerning as Stalin.

For example, Khrushchev.

Penetrating into people's hearts, grasping people's weaknesses, and doing what they liked, was the reason why Khrushchev was able to stand here, and now, Khrushchev once again made up for Stalin's worries.

"Comrade Stalin, I suggest that we organize an air raid on Berlin, the capital of Germany." Khrushchev said: "We want to let the flames of war reach the land of the Germans, let them know that their capital is not safe either, and make them tremble in the air raids." ”

Khrushchev paused and continued: "It's like the United States has launched an air raid on the island nation. ”

Stalin's eyes lit up.

The islanders attacked Pearl Harbor and made the whole United States shrouded in the sadness of defeat, and at this time, the Americans organized a bombing of the island mainland with their crippled fleet, which greatly encouraged people.

Now, if Berlin is bombed once, it is vital for the Soviets, and this will greatly encourage the people!
