Jagged Germany

Chapter 884: Vulnerable (seeking monthly ticket)

?? "Boom! Boom!"

??The capital ships of the German Navy's Mediterranean Fleet fired continuously, and heavy shells hit the fortress of Gibraltar one after another. Although, the fort is strong. However, in the case of being hit continuously, no matter how strong the fortress is, it can't hold it! What's more, the fortress of Gibraltar was built many years ago. There is already a big gap between the defense requirements at that time and the power of the main guns now.

?? "Boom!"

??A turret equipped with a 280mm fortress gun was hit continuously. A 380mm artillery shell directly penetrated the fort and exploded inside. In an instant, the entire fort was blown to pieces. The fortress guns were blown up and distorted. As for the Spanish soldiers in the fort, they were blown to pieces on the spot.

?? "My God! The men who guarded that fort are all dead. The German bombardment is so fierce that we can't stand it at all!"

?? "The German naval guns are all 380 mm. Our fortress can't resist it at all. If this continues, we will all die here!"

??As the power of the German naval guns gradually emerged, the fortresses in Gibraltar could not resist at all. One after another the forts were destroyed by the ferocious German naval guns. This demoralized the Spanish troops stationed at the fortress of Gibraltar. After all, the Spanish army is not elite in the first place. Under such circumstances, it is a strange thing to be able to hold on.

?? "Run away, if we continue to fight, we will all die at the hands of the Germans!"

"Gibraltar is occupied by the British, let them take it. The Germans want it, give it to them. It's of no use to us anyway. I don't know why we want to occupy it. It's not suicide. Is it?" an officer complained.

??In the critical situation on the battlefield, many Spanish soldiers fled directly.

?? When Major General Donald learned of this situation, he was even more furious.

?? "Bastard! How could they do this? Get them back!" Major General Donald ordered.

??The Spanish Army gave him an order to defend Gibraltar. Do not evacuate without receiving an order to evacuate. Otherwise, what awaits him will be a court-martial trial. Major General Donald didn't want his bright future to be ruined like this.

?? It's just that the Spanish soldiers were terrified. Even if they were suppressed by the officers, they didn't have much fighting spirit. Under such circumstances, can they be expected to continue to fight? Even if they were forced to stay, they would not be able to exert much combat power at all.

??The shelling of the German Navy's Mediterranean Fleet lasted only an hour, and the Gibraltar Fortress was almost destroyed.

?? "We have destroyed the Gibraltar fortress, and the engineers responsible for rebuilding it will probably have a very headache." Lieutenant General Mao Fu said with a smile.

"This is unavoidable. The fortress of Gibraltar is already outdated. After we took over, it naturally needs to be rebuilt according to our requirements. These fortresses are useless. Instead of waiting for the engineers to blow them up like this, we should destroy them. drop." Rear Admiral Raeder, chief of staff of the fleet, said with a smile.

?? Lieutenant General Mao Fu nodded: "That is indeed the truth! Let the marines land. Next, it is up to them."

?? "Order the main gun fire to start extending, light cruisers and destroyers approach, and provide fire support for the Marine Corps!" Lieutenant General Mao Fu ordered.

??The main artillery firepower of the fleet began to extend to the depth of Gibraltar. At the same time, the light cruisers and destroyers continued to drive towards the shore. Next, they will use small and medium-caliber naval guns to provide fire support to the Marine Corps. In order to facilitate the Marine Corps to win the next battle at the lowest cost.

??Major General Hans, commander of the 2nd Division of the Marine Corps, also issued an order to attack. The 4th Marine Regiment, aboard several hundred landing craft, rushed to the beaches of Gibraltar.

??Originally, Major General Hans had nothing to do with this battle. But because the Spaniard's head was caught in the door, he was ordered to come with the rest of the 2nd Marine Division. This made Major General Hans very satisfied. In his opinion, this is the credit that came automatically to his door!

??Hundreds of landing craft rushed to the beach, which still looked very spectacular. Although these landing craft are only two or three kilometers away from the beach, this distance is actually very dangerous. Once the Spaniards fire violently, they may cause a lot of damage to them.

?? "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

??The light cruisers and destroyers of the German Navy's Mediterranean Fleet began to pour shells. Although these small and medium-caliber naval guns are not as powerful as the main guns of battleships. However, with the Gibraltar Fortress already destroyed, these small-caliber naval guns were enough to kill the Spaniards.

?? "Quick, the Germans are landing. Get into position and hold them off!"

?? "Order the artillery to fire and sink the German landing craft. When they wash up on the beach, we're screwed!"

??A Spanish officer roared loudly, but a shell fell beside him. When the shell exploded, there was only a piece of minced meat left on the ground.

?? "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

??Dense artillery shells continued to fall on the positions of the Spanish army, blowing up their positions and tearing the Spanish soldiers to pieces.

?? "My God! The Germans are firing too hard."

??The Spaniards have not fought a war for more than ten years, especially as weapons and equipment become increasingly advanced, the Spanish army has no actual combat experience with these advanced equipment. When they encounter the most powerful German army in the world, it is natural to imagine what the consequences will be.

??The landing craft of the German Marine Corps washed up on the beach.

??Heavily armed soldiers jumped off the landing craft and lay down on the beach to shoot at the Spanish army.

?? "Mortar fire! Destroy the Spaniard's machine gun!"

?? A second lieutenant platoon leader ordered.

?? "Boom!"

??A mortar shell accurately hit a Spanish Army machine gun, blowing the machine gun into parts.

??At the same time, the German machine guns also started firing, making it impossible for the Spanish troops on a certain line of defense to raise their heads.

??As more and more German marines landed, the German army began to attack gradually.

??Although, the Spanish Army has an advantage in strength. However, they have already paid a lot of casualties under the fierce shelling of the German Navy's Mediterranean Fleet. Facing the attack of the German Marine Corps, it would be a ghost to be able to resist it.

?? In just half an hour, the 4th Regiment of the German Marine Corps contributed to the first-line positions of the Spanish army, and a large number of Spaniards fled to the north.
