The violent explosion of artillery shells woke up Admiral Isakov and others. They put on their military uniforms and hurried to the command tower to ask what happened.
"Comrade Commander, shelling, we were shelled by the Germany's large-caliber Naval Gun! Their Capital Ships is near us!" A Russian army staff officer said with a pale face.
"What? How is it possible?" General Orlov exclaimed.
You know, their destroyers and Light Cruiser are distributed around Capital Ships, searching within 20 kilometers nearby to ensure that they encounter German fleet that has not yet been discovered. But now, they were bombarded by German fleet, which meant that Capital Ships of the Germany people launched a bombardment twenty kilometers away from them.
"Comrade Political Commissar, the peripheral Light Cruiser have been identified. The Germany people are at least thirty kilometers south of us!" Another staff officer reported.
"What? Thirty kilometers away? How is that possible?" Chief of Staff General Viktorov looked in disbelief. This is almost beyond their knowledge.
Although, the range of 410mm Main Gun is more than thirty kilometers. However, no country can hit the target at such a long distance. That is definitely not possible with the current technical conditions.
Admiral Isakov's face became very ugly. He suddenly realized that even if they wanted to fight German Navy, they seemed unable to do so.
After their whereabouts were discovered by German fleet, Admiral Isakov knew that they could not escape this time. Therefore, I came to fight German fleet with the determination to die. The purpose is to make German fleet pay a heavy price even if he destroys them. After all, in a night battle, the distance between the two sides will be further shortened. In this case, the performance gap between battleships will be minimized. However, now it seems that this is completely wishful thinking on his part.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The shell exploded on the sea, sending up a high column of water.
Although, under the bombardment of German fleet, no Buru warship was hit. However, the impact point is getting closer and closer. This is definitely not good news for the Buru fleet. Because this means that Germany's Capital Ships is really capable of finding targets at ultra-long distances and launching attacks on them.
"Comrade Commander, what should we do now?" General Orlov asked.
Other Bolshevik Navy executives also looked at Admiral Isakov, waiting for his answer.
"Order the fleet to continue heading south at full speed. Try to close the distance with Germany people!" Admiral Isakov ordered.
Even at such a long distance, Germany's Capital Ships can hit so accurately. This means that if they cannot close the distance, they will always be passively beaten. When the time comes, the Germany people can take advantage of this and eliminate them all bit by bit.
Orlov General was hesitant 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 Germany people will pursue us. What's more, the Germany people's aircraft carrier must be nearby. Once dawn, they will definitely take off Carrier-based aircraft to attack us. By then, we will definitely die!"
Orlov Admiral looked very ugly, but he said nothing. He also knew that Admiral Isakov was telling the truth. German fleet actually has such incredible abilities. They are undoubtedly in danger this time.
The other Russia navy executives also looked ugly. Everyone knows that this time, their lives may have entered a countdown. Maybe not long after, they all have to go see Ulyanov.
On German fleet's flagship 'Caesar' Battleship, the Radar soldiers are using Fire-control Radar to determine the position of the Buru fleet, and then report the data to each turret for them to launch an attack.
German fleet's four ships, 'Kaiser-class' and Battleship, are now aiming at Bolshevik Navy's flagship 'Buru', concentrating firepower to increase the hit rate. After all, even with the assistance of Fire-control Radar, the hit rate will not be too high. After all, the performance of Radar in this era cannot be compared with that of later generations.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
German Navy's Capital Ships, kept firing. One after another, the shells roared and hit the number 'Buru' Battleship. For a time, cannonballs continued to fall around the Battleship number 'Buru', splashing water columns into the sky.
The Bolshevik Navy executives on the 'Buru' number Battleship all looked pale. The shells that fell down one after another could endanger their lives at any time.
"Comrade Commander, Germany people are very fast. Even if we drive at full speed, we can't close the distance between us!"
Admiral Isakov nodded. Now Capital Ships of German fleet has a huge advantage in long distance. Under such circumstances, the Buru fleet would naturally not be given the opportunity to close the distance.
But it's a pity that even if they know the Germany people's plans, they have no way to deal with it.
"Boom!"
A 410mm ground planer hit the side of the Battleship number 'Buru'. 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 cover up the panic in his heart. After all, they were hit by Naval Gun from German Navy, which 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 of German fleet's four 'Kaiser-class' Battleship became more accurate. The impact points of the bullets were getting closer and closer, which made the Russian generals on the Battleship Buru turn pale.
This feeling of watching yourself approach death step by step will undoubtedly make you collapse.
Admiral Isakov was also on the verge of tears. This was definitely not the decisive battle with Germany he had expected. Although he has known for a long time, even if they fight German fleet, they have no chance of winning. However, he hopes to lead the Buru fleet to die bravely, and to be killed after a fierce battle with German fleet. In this case, German fleet can more or less pay a certain amount of losses. At the same time, they can also die more heroically. But now, they are destined to die in frustration.
