"Whoo! Whoo!"


    Sharp and piercing whistles sounded above the heads of the German army. As veterans who have experienced the baptism of war, these soldiers naturally know what this means. However, this whistling sound was very sharp, as if it was going to pierce a person''s eardrum. This caused quite a few soldiers to change their faces drastically.


    "God! What''s going on? How could the British have such arge-caliber cannon?" A German officer said with a look of horror.


    "Boom!"


    There was a violent explosion, and the whole ground seemed to be shaking. Bricks, rubble, and dust, under the influence of the shock wave, sshed all around.


    A shellnds on a dpidated street. After the explosion, half the street was blown up. Many German soldiers who were on this street were all blown to death.


    "No, this is definitely not the army''s cannon, but the navy''s naval gun. Only the navy''srge-caliber main gun has such great power!"


    "Damn, did the British use the navy? How could they be so shameless?"


    The field artillery of the German army is very powerful. But the caliber is only 150mm. This is already thergest caliber cannon that can apany infantry inbat. Although when attacking the Liege Fortress, the German army used arger caliber siege cannon. But that kind of cannon is too heavy, and it is not suitable for apanying infantrybat at all.


    Now, the British actually directly investedrge-caliber naval guns in the Battle of Le Havre. It is conceivable how powerful this will be.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    On the sea, 21 former dreadnoughts and 13 armored cruisers of the British Navy are firing fiercely. Among those former dreadnoughts, except for the two "fast-ss" battleships equipped with 254mm main guns, the remaining 19 former dreadnoughts were equipped with twin 305mm main guns. In addition, these pre-dreadnought ships are also equipped with arge number of secondary guns. Although the caliber of the secondary guns is different, most of them are 152mm, 190mm or 233mm. For the infantry, these secondary guns alone are not something the Army''s artillery can fight.


    The 13 armored cruisers of the British Navy, the ''Minotaur-ss'' and the ''Warrior-ss'' are equipped with 233mm main guns. Among them, the ''Minotaur ss'' is equipped with two twin 233mm main guns and ten 190mm secondary guns. The "Warrior ss" is equipped with three dual-mounted 233mm main guns and four 190mm secondary guns. The "Devonshire-ss" armored cruiser is equipped with two twin 190mm main guns and six 152mm secondary guns.


    Now, these former dreadnoughts and armored cruisers of the British Navy are frantically pouring shells at the position of the German army on the coast ording to the coordinates provided by the British Expeditionary Force. Each shell is arge-caliber heavy artillerypared to the army. This naturally put the attacking German army in the midst of devastating shelling by the British navy.


    "Boom! Boom!"


    Two consecutive 305mm shells hit a street corner. Entire street corners were leveled. A German infantry toon hiding in this corner was blown to pieces on the spot. On the ground, only huge craters were left. After that, there is nothing.


    The German army attacking Le Havre suffered extremely heavy losses under the fierce naval gunfire of the British Navy. Even, they are the bravest soldiers. However, looking at one''s own troops, under the fierce shelling of the enemy, they were torn to pieces at once. This kind of feeling is enough to make people''s willpletely copse.


    "Damn, retreat! Retreat immediately! Despicable British, they actually used naval guns!" A German officer ordered loudly.


    Although, there is no order from themand yet. However, I can''t care about anything else. If they continue to persist, they will only suffer greater losses.


    As soon as the order was issued, a 233mm artillery shell fell from the sky, directly blowing up the German officer and several surrounding German soldiers to pieces. The stumps and broken arms were all gone, and all that was left were pieces of minced meat.


    When the violent explosion sounded, even the German headquarters far away from the front line could hear it clearly. Admiral Crook and Lieutenant General Ludendorff suddenly changed their expressions.


    "What''s going on? What is this voice?" Admiral Crook frowned.


    "Large caliber cannon! A veryrge caliber cannon. It is very likely to be the main naval gun of the British!" Lieutenant General Ludendorff''s face was even more livid.


    Lieutenant General Ludendorff recognized the sound on the spot. However, this made him feel a trembling from the bottom of his heart. In front of the navy''srge-caliber main guns, anyone would probably have such a performance.


    "Damn it, did the British use the navy? Isn''t their fleet almost beaten by our navy? Why is it still here?" Admiral Crook became anxious.


    Now, the German infantry are still under the ravages of the Britishrge-caliber naval guns!


    "General, you can''t wait any longer. Order the troops on the front line to retreat immediately! Now, I can''t care about continuing to attack. As much as I can withdraw." Lieutenant General Ludendorff ordered.


    "Okay, order the troops to retreat immediately. In addition, contact the air force and let them take off the reconnaissance ne to see what''s going on!" Admiral Crook ordered.


    "Yes, General." Lieutenant General Ludendorff nodded.


    When the order to retreat was issued, the German soldiers who entered Le Havre and were ravaged by the terrible naval guns of the British Navy retreated in a hurry. But even so, they have lost too many troops under the fierce shelling of the British navy. Many people even had expressions of horror on their faces. Obviously, what happened just now was like being in **** to them. This is a serious devastation to their spirit and will.


    These soldiers, without a good recovery, may not be able to go to the battlefield again.


    The bombardment of the British navy did not stop because of the retreat of the German infantry. Under the guidance of the artillery officers of the British Expeditionary Force, they also shelled the German artillery positions.


    Large-caliber naval guns are not only powerful. It also has a very long range. Even the German artillery positions are far away from the coast. But it is also within the range of the main guns of the British Navy.


    Under the shelling of the British Navy''s main guns, the German Army''s artillery positions suffered heavy losses during the shelling. So much so that these artillerymen had to withdraw from the front line. It is safe to retreat until it is out of the range of the main guns of the British Navy.
