Boom! Boom! Boom! In the Dover Strait, five Bavaria-class battleships, five Kaiser class battleships, five Deutschland-class battleships, and five Braunschweig-class battleships of the German Navy were bombarding Canterbury with 380mm Main Guns and 280mm main guns.
Although the Deutschland-class battleships and Braunschweig-class battleships were armed only with 280mm main guns, their power was limited. But striking Canterbury more than ten kilometers away posed no problem at all. They could still inflict tremendous casualties on the British troops stationed there. As for the 380mm Main Guns of the Bavaria-class battleships and Kaiser class battleships, there was even less need to mention them. Their maximum range exceeded twenty kilometers, enough to bring all of Canterbury and its surroundings within their reach. The 380mm Main Guns were also vastly more powerful.
In addition, the five Wittelsbach-class battleships, five Kaiser Frederick III-class battleships, and four Brandenburg-class battleships that had originally provided fire support to the 3rd Army Corps and the 3rd Marine Division joined in as well. After the British troops retreated to Maidstone, they had moved far beyond the maximum range of these pre-dreadnoughts' main guns. Thus, they could only shift their targets. It so happened that the main force of the British Southeast War Zone was concentrated in Canterbury, and the German military needed powerful artillery fire to strike them and inflict even greater casualties.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The unceasing explosions rang out across Canterbury. The German Navy warships were firing High-Explosive Shells. Every shell that exploded left behind a huge crater in the ground. Buildings and animals within the blast radius paid a grievous price.
Boom!
A 380mm Shell struck a British bomb shelter. The powerful shell directly blasted the shelter into collapse, burying more than a hundred British soldiers inside. The British soldiers outside hurriedly began digging, hoping to rescue
