When the German fleet came under pressure, the entire Red Flag Baltic fleet was stunned.
The bombers in the sky are terrible, but the number of bombers is insufficient. If the Germans fly in dozens of bombers, they can destroy all of their fleet.
But now, it can be counted with one hand. The sporadic bombers are all going to deal with large targets, and they can't even see small targets.
On the side of the formation, a Tashkent-class destroyer immediately sprinted to full force, trying to squeeze toward the narrow channel.
The Tashkent-class destroyer is also evidence of the friendship between Germany and the Soviet Union, because this class of destroyer was completely built by the Germans, and the Soviet Union used agricultural products and iron ore in exchange for it from Germany.
The performance of this destroyer is quite excellent. German-made warships are more refined than those made by the Soviet Union itself. Due to the excellent engine performance, this warship can reach a high speed of 42 knots.
Originally it was behind the fleet. Now, after running at full power, it quickly moved forward, surpassing a fleet of warships, crowded into the channel in the bell mouth, and passed by the sinking Mara.
The German warship is here, and only through the channel can it be absolutely safe. It is impossible for the Germans to pass through here quickly. The waterway here is the passage of life and death.
Anyway, there is no commander of the fleet now, and it is not a violation of the rules for them to run away like this.
Thick black smoke came out from the chimney at the top, and the Tashkent-class destroyer moved quickly toward the channel, causing dissatisfaction from the surrounding ships.
”No, stop, you idiot!” On the Kirov cruiser, Captain Aleksandrov shouted loudly: ”The waterway is only 20 meters deep. You will hit the sinking Mara! ”
As an experienced cruiser captain, Aleksandrov knew that the purpose of the German attack was to block the waterway. What he did not expect was that there were people on his side to aggravate the chaos.
The water depth of the channel is insufficient, and the Mara has sunk, but if you look closely, you can find that the Mara has almost never passed. If you start it at this time, it will be like hitting a reef. Number.
”No, we will go from the side.” The Tashkent-class captain said: ”Right rudder one, we go around.”
”Boom!” At this moment, a heavy impact sounded, and the bow of the ship had hit the rear propeller of the Mara.
The Mara was sunk in two stages, the tail bulged, and the propeller was almost at a depth of about one meter. Now, the bow of the ship hits at a speed of more than 40 knots, and it can’t hold the blow. A big hole was broken.
Just when I was in a hurry to escape, the German fleet had already started the first round of shooting. No one saw it. In the sky above my head, the ship-borne water plane flew over. Undertake the task of artillery shooting.
”Scharnhorst”, this is an outstanding warship that once sank the British aircraft carrier in a naval battle, but now it is completing another mission to destroy the Soviet Baltic fleet.
On the bridge, Captain Claude had joy in his eyes, looking at the Soviet warship in the distance.
”Target, the Soviet cruiser right in front, after the test fire, two rounds of volleys.” The command issued by Captain Claude was quite detailed.
Before becoming the captain, he was the gun commander of this warship. He was most familiar with how to control the cannon of the warship. Now they are heading towards the Soviet warship, 15 nautical miles away.
