Chapter 1374 Bombing the Gulf of Riga 2

"It's the Tempest. I can't remember it wrong. It went to lay mines with the Soldier. At that time, one of them was killed by our destroyer. Now there is still one left!"

"Look, there is another one, and the back of this guy is full of mines! God, if they throw these things into the sea, it will be enough for the navy guys to do!" After a brief exchange, a group of German pilots began Launched an attack on three mine-laying ships parked in the berth. Unfortunately, the bombs they carried this time were not very effective.

The Russian soldiers on the battleship obviously discovered the god of death coming from the sky, and they began to ignite the boiler in a hurry to avoid it. However, do you think that the battleship is like a car, just insert the key and step on the accelerator and you can leave? ! What are you thinking! Others ran onto the ship and tried to operate machine guns and artillery to fight back.

Accompanied by a sound like tearing cloth and a low roar mixed in it, the 12.7MM machine gun and 20MM machine gun fired at the Russians instantly doubting their lives. Dense shells fell like raindrops, leaving horrific bullet holes in the teak deck and hull partitions. From time to time, some red and fishy "dye" was smeared on the battleship!

The huge figure whizzed past the target, and then dropped a 750KG bomb. The bomb landed less than 10 meters next to the minelayer. After impacting with the water, the fuse was activated, and a huge blast followed quickly. Water columns spurted up from under the hull, and even the entire mine-laying ship seemed to be lifted a little higher by a pair of big hands! With the violent impact, the underwater part of the battleship was riddled with holes in an instant. It sank to the bottom of the water in just a few seconds.

The other two bombers launched an attack on the second USS Soldier. The intensive firing of more than a dozen machine guns and machine guns formed a cross fire net that covered the vicinity of the target! Then, before the two bombers dropped their bombs, a series of 20MM armor-piercing incendiary bombs hit the mines densely stored behind the mine-laying ship... It's just a layer of iron, how can it block the attack of a 20MM gun? As a result, a series of explosions instantly tore the unlucky mine-laying ship into pieces. A huge fireball rose from the sea and unambiguously dragged another mine-laying ship next to it into the flames and storm of death. middle.......

"Oh God, we destroyed three ships with one bomb..." A German pilot fell into deep thinking. The result of the battle just now made him doubt his life... And in line with the "professional ethics" of being a bomber pilot. The bombs you brought out must not be brought back. As a result, the other two bombers found Fort No. 41 and used two 750KG armor-piercing rounds to blow the two 6-inch guns and dozens of officers and soldiers from various countries near the fort into pieces.

At the same time, another 12 bombers flew to the port of Riga. In the port, they discovered a group of Russian transport ships that were unloading and preparing to leave, as well as three destroyers and the cruiser Bayan docked next to it!

"Which one should be fried first?" When faced with fish or meat,

The German pilots were also temporarily confused. By that time, they quickly understood the situation. The defense situation in the Gulf of Riga was based on external demand but domestic demand. The main forts are deployed on the outer islands and peninsulas. The defense strength of the Port of Riga is very low. The only defense force is 1 cruiser and 3 destroyers... At present, they are neatly moored in the berth of the port. At this time, who will be bombed if not you? ! Anyway, the light cruiser detachment of the German Navy will come in soon. Can't we just guide them to bombard the Gulf of Riga again? Just pull out the nails in the Port of Riga first!

The red team roared past first. Because they would be responsible for the reconnaissance and guidance work of the German Navy, they did not carry much ammunition. Each aircraft only had one 500KG bomb. As always, it is an arrogant ultra-low altitude pass. In this eastern front with almost no anti-aircraft firepower, as long as you don't hit any bottles and cans, there is no threat at low altitude. If you don't see some higher altitudes nearby, building, the elites of the red team dared to lower the bombing height to less than 50 meters!

Almost on top of the Russian warship, three 500KG high-explosive bombs fell, and one of them hit the target! A bomb landed dangling in the middle of the cruiser Bayan. With a loud noise, more than 300 kilograms of picric acid explosives directly blew away all three decks of the cruiser, which had a displacement of less than 7,000 tons! The huge energy generated by the explosion directly blew the two chimneys at the front and rear into pieces, and sheets of flame began to spread on the surface of the battleship. A large amount of air poured into the hole that was blown, making the battleship's situation even worse. Coupled with the sneak attack, a considerable number of personnel were not on board. The Russians who failed to contain the fire at the first time may have completely lost the battleship!

(What? What did you say the Russians did? A German pilot pointed to the Russian sailors running away on the shore in the distance and said, these guys are helping to unload the cargo.)

Another bomb landed next to a destroyer. The German pilot who threw the bomb was sure that it missed, but this did not prevent the near-missing bomb from shattering the underwater part of the destroyer not far away 20 meters away. There was no way , more than 300 kilograms of picric acid explosives, God will kill God if he blocks it, and Buddha will kill Buddha if he blocks Buddha! Then, before the aftermath of the explosion dissipated, the several-hundred-ton destroyer capsized and sank in the berth.

The last bomb landed a little sideways, but I have to say that the performance of this bomb was not bad, because it landed in the crowd next to the berth, and with a loud noise, at least three digits of people died directly or indirectly. In addition to the explosive power, the bomb also blew up several wooden houses nearby.

The remaining bombers performed equally well. In just ten minutes, 12 bombers successfully dropped 6 tons of bombs into the Gulf of Riga port. Four transport ships were unable to dodge and were directly hit or affected. A cargo station next to the port was also hit by a bomb, and it was visually estimated that dozens of tons of grain or other flammable items were directly ignited.

Subsequently, in addition to the red team that performed guidance and reconnaissance missions, the remaining 12 bombers began to use machine guns and cannons to happily hit the Russians on the ground. However, in general, such a gap is not good for the hardware facilities in the port. The loss is not very big. The loss of the fleet was not large, there were at least 20 civilian ships in the port. What makes the Russians most heartbroken is that the fleet stationed in the Gulf of Riga is completely finished. The only cruiser was probably down. There is only one destroyer left that can fight. What the Russians didn't expect was that shortly after the air attack was carried out, a German light cruiser came in!
