The naval artillery played a huge effect, completely smashing the defense of the protrusion, Scheer sat in the headquarters, and was steadily receiving the news from all directions, but the other side of the Entente, but it was overwhelmed, this one prominently, in the Entente protection system of the status is quite high, but most of the generals of the Entente did not think that this place would be attacked, it was too far away, and there were two places, the troops were relatively concentrated, and the distance from the shore was more than 3 kilometers, they thought that where would be attacked, Unexpectedly, they guessed completely wrong, and Scheer chose to be 10 kilometers away, instead of choosing the other two places where there were more people and more concentrated materials.

After the attack fell to this location, many generals of the Entente could be considered to understand that the High Seas Fleet had no intention of going anywhere else from the beginning to the end, and the only goal was here, even if they had already discovered the target, there was nothing to be done, where was the absolutely important area, it was impossible to retreat, and now they could only wait to assess where the losses were.

Nearly 50,000 shells, half of which were more than 11 inches. Most of these shells hit the air, did not hit the vital places of the defensive line, and did not even cause much damage, but there were also some of them in this vital part, and in this not very large area of the defensive line, at least 120 battalion-level anti-artillery holes were destroyed, and the degree of destruction of the defensive line was as high as more than 10%.

Don't underestimate this 10%, you know, in Bordeaux's multi-layered battlefield, there are 6 million troops stationed, but the division-level units are close to 400 so, even in this area, there are also 40 divisions of troops, 10% of the losses are considerable, the most terrible thing is that the attack is the most solid defense line, but also the most fierce defense point, here is the focus of defense, but also the fulcrum of the defense line, once this is attacked, the entire defense line is weakened.

50,000 rounds of naval guns, of which more than 4 percent are 11-inch naval guns, as well as a large number of 15-inch naval guns, this level of attack, for the 20 square kilometers of protrusion, it is a nightmare, a total of 40 divisions, 170 regiments, almost more than 700 battalions, 120 battalions have been dealt a relatively devastating blow, the most critical gains and losses, including a few large-caliber naval guns, but also hit several assembly sites, these assembly sites are the existence of regimental reserves, in terms of large-caliber artillery attacks, A shell coming in is enough to kill or even hundreds of people around, and this is not an ordinary casualty.

This part of the regimental reserve is at least 5 kilometers away from the frontal battlefield, plus the front parts of the two sides, the isolation zone, even the longest-range army artillery, can not hit here, for them, if the German army does not attack in an all-round way, it is more to feel the atmosphere of the battlefield, increase the psychological exercise, after all, this is very close to the front line. But this is a naval gun, as long as the position of the opponent's defense line is roughly fixed, a random beating, the final hit rate does not exceed 30%, but the lethality is very amazing, one of the regimental level, plus the wounded, logistics personnel, a total of more than 1,400 people, in the same large anti-artillery hole, this anti-artillery hole was hit by an armor-piercing shell, penetrating 4 meters thick soil, smashing the reinforced concrete structure and wooden city above, the shell with a powerful shock wave, penetrated to at least 4 meters deep undergroundThe shock wave killed all the people within 20 meters around the shell, and the kinetic energy of the rapid penetration, coupled with the shredded steel bars and wood, caused a wider range of casualties, and the two shells caused a total of more than 700 deaths, and at least 300 people were seriously injured and more than 100 people were slightly injured, basically everyone was injured.

Tens of thousands of rounds of large-caliber artillery, mixed with a small number of high-explosive shells, armor-piercing shells and infantry anti-personnel shells, caused 50,000 damage to this prominent area, if it is just like this, it is nothing, the Bordeaux front, the limit of 200,000 casualties a day, there have been, especially when launching group charges and large-scale battles, their casualties are very terrible, but concentrated in this area, it is enough to affect the defense of this area, especially the 10% casualty ratio of the defensive line, A huge gap must have been torn open.

The German fleet and the army were closely connected, with the help of radio, they could report the situation in a short time, just when the front line troops of the Entente were still a little anxious about being attacked, the German army began to attack, less than 20 square kilometers, suffered a devastating blow, and before it could react, the 250,000 German troops on the front launched a charge, concentrated the artillery fire of 50 divisions, and ploughed this area again, and the fortifications that had just been destroyed were almost destroyed. Receiving further blows, and suppressing the resistance from this side with superior artillery fire, when 250,000 men swarmed up, there were only sporadic counterfires on this side, which allowed this part of the German army to rush into the defensive line, and the Germans spent much less than expected, completed the occupation of the defensive line, and continued to attack in depth.

The front line has been a mess, it stands to reason that the Entente must support there, the loss of 50,000, 250,000 against 500,000, the Entente army still occupies a considerable upper hand, but one side is still gaining momentum, taking advantage of the premise of artillery attack, continue to attack, the other side is beaten a little confused, passive resistance, soon, was broken through the position by the German army, 500,000 people are a little precarious.

50,000 people, that's nothing, 500,000 people, this is the entire Bordeaux front, one-tenth of the troops, no one can ignore it. On the Bordeaux front, all aspects of the arrangement are in place, between the front line and the rear, the telephone line is deeply buried, the deepest is almost 7 meters below, under normal circumstances, it is difficult to interrupt, the emergency calls one after another, the front line commander also saw the bad situation, is preparing to send reinforcements, at this critical moment, the high seas fleet still did not stop attacking, they took advantage of this pass, continue to attack, this time, is not a concentrated attack, but a casual fight, as long as in the rear of the attack just now, The area that can be covered by artillery fire is covered in this way, although it is said that the hit rate is not high for more than 15 kilometers, but the deterrent effect is huge.

After all, just 20 square kilometers of concentrated attack, directly let the troops in which area received a near-devastating blow, and the homeopathic German army also began to attack, soon that area will be in danger, someone must be supported, this is normal on the battlefield in Bordeaux, but most of the time is the Entente attack, and the German guard, once Germany turns up to attack, the sharp offensive, enough to penetrate the Allied defense line, in this way, the Entente will often rely on the support of the rear, Fight against this attack.

Now, this tacit understanding has been broken, that place is exactly in the most vulnerable range of naval guns, no more than 10 kilometers from the coastline, that is to say, the battleship's naval guns only have a range of 13 kilometers, which is a lot farther than 10 kilometers, but it has not reached the limit of 15 kilometers, and the most important thing is that after an hour and a half of attack, these gunners are familiar with these places, after all, they are fixed targets, and they are not still at sea, and the relative speed is unpredictable, Elite gunners can almost rely on their senses to attack some slightly more precise targets, which to some extent directly hits the path of the back, and the direct effect is that the front line also collapses.

It was attacked by naval artillery intensively, disrupting the planned front-line troops, and encountered a concentrated attack by the German army, Germany's artillery superiority and firepower superiority are not a joke, the Entente countries that have been beaten enough barely supported a line of defense, and when this line of defense is in a precarious position, it is hoped that the support behind it, if there is no follow-up support at this moment, this part will not be able to withstand for long.

The war ended only 40 minutes after it began, and when the fierce resistance of the first line of defense was destroyed by the heavy firepower of Germany, this part of the Allied army had no way to form a stronger defensive line, and some of the defenders surrendered and some of the defenders were scattered.

Fortunately, at this time, there is a protruding place, there are not many support points around, if it is an arc defense line, once this line is opened a gap, the entire Bordeaux defense line will be in danger, and it is not an empty word to retreat two or three lines.

Outside the city of Bordeaux, under a high ground, this is the temporary command, the previous command is in the city of Bordeaux, but in the face of the threat of the high seas fleet, they must move outside the range of the high seas fleet, here is 25 kilometers away from the sea, this distance, even if it is the emperor level of China, don't want to fight so far, the emperor level of Germany is even more impossible, just settle down, and get this bad news, which makes the commanders of the Entente depressed, 400,000 is nothing, It can only be regarded as a conventional loss, the key is that next, at this time, the artillery fire of the high seas fleet has not stopped.

Because in the second wave, when attacking the entire Bordeaux area, Scheer found that in the direction of his attack, there was a riot in the forces of the Entente, although this riot was very slight, if you don't pay attention, you can't see it at all, but this is a rare opportunity, from the beginning to the present, the attack of the battleships has lasted for more than 2 hours, and the entire high seas fleet is quite tired, but under the impetus of the possibility of victory, the high seas fleet mustered up the courage to continue the attack, frantically attacking to those rioted places, Strive to further increase the unrest, a place with 6 million troops, a place where the Allies are a military stronghold, and once the unrest spreads, Germany will reap unimaginable benefits.
