Chapter 1183

The violent shell explosion woke up Admiral Isakov and others. They put on their military uniforms and hurried to the command tower to ask what happened.

"Comrade Commander, bombardment, we were bombarded by the Germans' large-caliber naval guns! Their capital ship is near us!" A Russian staff officer said with a pale face.

"What? How is it possible?" Admiral Orlov exclaimed.

You know, their destroyers and light cruisers are distributed around the capital ship, searching within 20 kilometers nearby to ensure that they encounter something that the German fleet has not discovered. But now, they were bombarded by the German fleet, which meant that the German capital ship launched bombardment 20 kilometers away from them.

"Comrade Political Commissar, the outer light cruisers have been identified, and the Germans are at least 30 kilometers south of us!" Another staff officer reported.

"What? Thirty kilometers away? How is that possible?" Chief of Staff General Viktorov looked disbelieving. This is almost beyond their cognition.

Although, the range of the 410mm main gun is more than 30 kilometers. However, it is impossible for any country to hit the target at such a long distance. That is definitely not what the existing technical conditions can achieve.

Admiral Isakov's face became very ugly. He suddenly realized that even if they wanted to fight the German navy, it seemed impossible.

After the whereabouts were discovered by the German fleet, Admiral Isakov knew that they could not escape this time. Therefore, I came to fight the German fleet with the will to die. The purpose is to make the German fleet pay a heavy price even if it destroys them. After all, in night battles, the distance between the two sides will be further shortened. In this case, the performance gap between the battleships will be minimized. However, it now appears that this is entirely his wishful thinking.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The shell exploded on the sea, splashing a high column of water.

Although, under the shelling of the German fleet, no Russian battleship was hit. However, the point of impact was getting closer and closer. This is definitely not good news for the Russian fleet. Because this means that the German capital ship is really capable of finding targets at a very long distance and launching attacks on them.

"Comrade Commander, what should we do now?" Admiral Orlov asked.

The other high-ranking officials of the Russian Navy also looked at Admiral Isakov, waiting for his answer.

"Command the fleet to continue heading south at full speed. Try to get closer to the Germans!" Admiral Isakov ordered.

Although at such a long distance, the German capital ships can hit so accurately. This also means that if they cannot close the distance, they will always be passively beaten. At that time, the Germans can take advantage of this advantage and wipe them out bit by bit.

Admiral Orlov hesitated to speak.

Admiral Isakov understood what he meant, so he said: "It is impossible for us to escape now. Even if we turn around and retreat immediately, the Germans will pursue us. What's more, the German aircraft carrier It must be nearby. Once dawn, they will definitely take off carrier-based aircraft to attack us. At that time, we will definitely die!"

Admiral Orlov's face was very ugly, but he still didn't say anything. He also knew that Admiral Isakov was telling the truth. The German fleet actually has such an ability against the sky, and they are undoubtedly in danger this time.

The other high-ranking Russian navy officers also had ugly expressions on their faces. Everyone knows that this time, their lives may have entered the countdown. Maybe it won't be long before they all have to go see Ulyanov.

On the battleship Kaiser, the flagship of the German fleet, the radar soldiers are looking at the radar to determine the position of the Russian fleet, and then report the data to the turrets, and they will launch the attack.

The four "Caesar-class" battleships of the German fleet are all aiming at the flagship "Bu Russia" of the Russian Navy at this moment, and increase the hit rate by concentrating their firepower. After all, even with the assistance of the artillery sighting radar, the hit rate would not be too high. After all, the radar performance of this era cannot be compared with that of later generations.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The capital ship of the German Navy, constantly firing. One after another, the shells roared and smashed towards the battleship 'Bu'. For a while, shells continued to fall around the battleship 'Bu', splashing jets of water into the sky.

The senior officials of the Russian Navy on the battleship "Bu Russia" all looked pale. The dropped shells could endanger their lives at any time.

"Comrade Commander, the Germans are very fast. Even if we drive at full speed, we can't close the distance with them!"

Admiral Isakov nodded. Now the capital ship of the German fleet has a huge advantage in long distances. Under such circumstances, naturally the Bu-Russian fleet will not be given the opportunity to get closer.

But it is a pity that even if they knew the Germans' plans, they had no way to deal with it.

"Boom!"

A 410mm bomb hit the ground and hit the side of the battleship "Bu Russia". A 150mm secondary gun was blown up on the spot, and several artillerymen were also killed.

"Damn it!" Many Russian generals cursed. As if to use this to cover up the panic in my heart. After all, being hit by the naval guns of the German Navy means that more shells will hit them in the future. In that case, the consequences will undoubtedly be more serious.

After the first shell hit, the subsequent shelling by the four "Kaesar-class" battleships of the German fleet became more accurate. The impact points were getting closer one by one, which made the faces of the Russian generals on the battleship 'Bu Russia' pale.

This feeling of watching oneself approaching death step by step will undoubtedly make people collapse.

Admiral Isakov also felt a little bit like crying, this is definitely not the decisive battle he expected with the Germans. Although he has known for a long time, even in a decisive battle with the German fleet, they have no chance of winning at all. However, he hopes to lead the Russian fleet to die bravely, and to be killed after a fierce battle with the German fleet. In this case, the German fleet can more or less pay a certain loss. At the same time, they can also die more heroically. But now, they are destined to die aggrieved.
