It was 6:30 in the morning on April 41, 1940, and the sun never set on the southeastern coast of the Empire, off the coast of New Rodney.

The two H battleships and two P-class battleships of the Third Reich have already crossed the hull and are ready to open fire.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, the time has come!"A general reported.

Admiral Albrecht, Chief of Naval Staff of the Third Reich, nodded:"Order all ships to prepare to fire! Within half an hour, the coastal defenses of the Empire on which the sun never sets must be destroyed. Then, provide covering fire for the landing force!"

"Yes, Your Excellency, Chief of Staff!"The general replied.

According to the intelligence obtained, the fortifications built by the Sun Never Sets Empire in New Rodney are not strong and can even be described as perfunctory. Under such circumstances, the Third Reich Navy will destroy this place. It is not difficult to build fortifications.

Next, it is the performance of the Marine Corps.

The 1st Marine Division will be responsible for this beach landing. After the 1st Marine Division successfully gained a foothold on the beach, the Third Reich The 1st Army Group will land here. After that, the 4th Army Group, 1st Armored Group Army, 5th Army Group and 7th Army Group will all land here. It can be said that the main force of Army Group D of the Third Reich Army, They will all land here. In this area, they will defeat the 3rd Regiment of the Imperial Army where the Sun Never Sets in one fell swoop, and follow up with reinforcements. This will attract other main forces of the Imperial Army where the Sun Never Sets to rush to this area. Prepare for other troops in the area. The landings at Eastbourne and Margate created favorable conditions.

Two minutes later, the battleship Hindenburg took the lead and began the bombardment.

"boom! boom! boom!"

The three triple-mounted 50 times caliber 410mm main guns of the battleship Hindenburg roared loudly. The shells weighing more than one ton roared and hit the coast.

More than ten seconds later, a violent The explosion sounded on the coast.

This time it was an attack on land targets, so the battleship Hindenburg almost all used high-explosive bombs. The high-explosive bombs weighing more than one ton exploded with great power. Even on the beach On the beach, the impact force was weakened by the sand. But it still left large craters with a diameter of 20 to 30 meters on the beach.

"boom! boom! boom!"

The battleship Ludendorff, the battleship Prussia and the battleship Saxony also started bombarding one after another. Large-caliber shells hit the beach hard.

"boom! boom! boom!"

Continuous violent explosions resounded on the beach. The fortifications built by the Imperial Army were destroyed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Those fortresses that had cut corners were simply filled with large-caliber heavy artillery shells, and were easily blown up. Destroyed.

Immediately afterwards, the cruisers and destroyers also joined in and began to fire violently with 210-meter naval guns, 150-millimeter naval guns and 105-millimeter guns and dump bombs on the beach. For a time, the sun never set on the beach. The defensive position was almost completely shrouded in fire and smoke.

The fortress was destroyed, the trenches were blown down, and one firepower point after another was blown directly into the sky.

As for the anti-gun holes, they were even unable to withstand these large-caliber All the naval guns and shells that were affected were blown up one after another. Many soldiers of the Imperial Army, where the sun never sets, were directly buried alive inside.

"Oh, God! Damn the Germans, are they planning to use large-caliber naval guns to bury us all here?"Lieutenant General Philip's face was very ugly.

Although the defensive positions they built were cut corners and perfunctory.

But in his opinion, even the solid defenses built with care could not withstand these large-caliber naval gun shells. Right. This is simply not something that human power can contend with!

"All Royal Navy. If the Royal Navy had not lost the battle and been defeated by these Germans, the German navy would not have been able to launch an attack on our homeland."Rear Admiral William said.

Lieutenant General Philip nodded repeatedly, looking deeply convinced.

The Royal Navy is known as the foundation of the empire on which the sun never sets, and it takes the lion's share of military expenditures every year. However, its performance in this war is not as good as How much better their army is. In fact, they still need to rely on the army to save the Empire on which the sun never sets. This naturally makes them worried.

"General, I'm afraid the shore defenses can't hold up at all! It won't take long before it will be destroyed by the Third Reich's navy. What's more, with those battleships there, it is impossible for our troops deployed on the coast to survive the fierce bombardment of the Third Reich Navy. Rather than doing this, it would be better to abandon the coast and retreat to the second-line position. In this case, unnecessary casualties may be avoided."Major General William suggested.

Lieutenant General Philip shook his head:"If we abandon the coast, the troops of the Third Reich will land easily. At that time, we will be even more unable to withstand their attack. And those guys from the Army Department will definitely not let me go."

"Order the troops on the front line to hold their positions!"Lieutenant General Philip gave the order with a dark face.

"Yes, General!"Major General William nodded.

Although they knew very well that if the troops on the front line were to hold on to their positions, they would really die. However

, neither Major General Philip nor Major General William cared about those ordinary soldiers at all. casualties. What they care about is not to let themselves be implicated. That is the most important thing.

"boom! boom! boom!"

The bombardment of the Third Reich Navy continues. Several capital ships and a large number of cruisers and destroyers are all firing wildly, as if these shells are free of charge at all.

For those soldiers of the Empire on the beach, the sun never sets For them, these shellings were life-threatening.

Their positions were destroyed, and no bones of their comrades were left.

For them, this battlefield was as tragic as hell.

Many people's will almost collapsed, thinking To escape from the battlefield.

However, the order they received was to stick to their position and not to retreat without permission. This was undoubtedly asking them to die!

"boom! boom!"

On the battleship Hindenburg, Admiral Albrecht held up his telescope and watched the navy's gun show.

Such a violent bombardment gave him a pleasant feeling.

"I wonder if those Anglo-Saxons could survive our heavy bombardment. I guess it shouldn't be possible. In this case, it will be much easier for the Marine Corps to land."General Albrecht murmured._To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
