"Fire!"


    On the battleship ''Montana'', the gship of the U.S. Navy''s battleship formation, Admiral Haspen Kimmel personally gave the order to fire.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    The four triple-mounted 50-caliber 410mm main guns on the battleship ''Montana'' began to roar.


    Orange mes shone at the muzzle, and shells whizzed one after another towards the German base in Ponta Delgada.


    After the "Montana" battleship opened fire, the remaining four "Montana-ss" battleships also started firing.


    For a time, five "Montana-ss" battleships, with 60 410mm main guns, frantically poured shells into the base of Ponta Delgada. With such powerful artillery fire, it only takes one hour to blow up the German base in Ponta Delgada into ruins.


    The heavy cruisers, light cruisers, and destroyers apanying the five "Montana-ss" battleships also started firing.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    The shells fell on the airport in Ponta Delgada, blowing out huge craters. The hangar was also hit by shells, and some fighter nes that hadn''t had time to be transferred to the underground hangar or cave were blown to pieces. Even some buildings on the airport were inevitably destroyed. In front of the 410mm main gun of the naval battleship, everything looks so fragile, like paper.


    "Damn, the Americans are reallying. Fight back! Kill them!" The German basemander issued an order.


    After receiving the order, he stayed in the fortress by the sea, waiting for the arrival of the Americans.


    "Boom! Boom!"


    This fortress deployed two triple-mounted 50-caliber 410mm coastal defense guns, four triple-mounted 50-caliber 380mm coastal defense guns, and many small and medium-caliber coastal defense guns. After being attacked by the US fleet, these coastal defense guns all began to fight back.


    "General, the Germans actually built a fort here." Major General Kevill looked shocked.


    "Hmph! What if there is a fortress? They don''t have manyrge-caliber coastal defense guns. With our firepower, they are enough to destroy them!" Admiral Hasben Kimmel said nonchntly.


    Indeed, the powerful artillery fire of the five ''Montana-ss'' battleships is enough to submerge the German fortress here. Although the defense of the fortress is amazing, if it is hit continuously, no matter how strong the fortress is, it will be destroyed.


    When the US Navy''s 1st battleship formation began to attack, the 2nd battleship formation also began to attack the base in Santa Cruz, and the 3rd battleship formation also began to attack the base in Dafarang. The six "Baltimore-ss" heavy cruisers of the 1st heavy cruiser formation also began to attack the German base on Corvo Ind.


    It''s just that these fleets were also fired back by the German fortress artillery. A fierce artillery battle broke out between the two sides.


    "General, the American attack has already begun. They only have four battleships attacking Dafa, and only six battleships attacking Santa Cruz." Antic Fleet Chief of Staff George Friedberg The lieutenant general had a smile on his face.


    "Very well, it seems that our arrangement is considered a sess. This time, the Americans must pay a heavy price!" Admiral Rolf Karls had a smile on his face.


    The eight capital ships of the Antic Fleet of the German Navy rushed towards Dafarang, and the eight ships besieged four ships, which still had a considerable advantage. The 15 capital ships of the Home Fleet and the Mediterranean Fleet are heading for Santa Cruz and will arrive there soon. 15 to 6, the German fleet still upies an absolute advantage.


    Even if the other five capital ships of the U.S. fleet rushed immediately after hearing the news, it would probably be toote. By the time they arrived, the capital ship formation of the US fleet had already paid a heavy price.


    "Our submarines and torpedo boats shouldunch an attack after calcting the time! It would be great if they can eliminate some of the capital ships of the US fleet." Admiral Rolf Karls said.


    "General, submarines and torpedo boats are ready. They will choose their own time to attack. When fighting at night, our submarines and torpedo boats are easier tounch a surprise attack. Once hit by a heavy torpedo, it is considered an American. The new-style battleships we have now won’t be able to eat and walk around.” Lieutenant General George Friedberg said.


    Admiral Rolf Karls nodded, this is a trap they carefully set for the Americans. Now the Americans have fallen into the trap unknowingly, and it is time for them to harvest their prey.


    "Boom!"


    A 410mm artillery shell hit the German Navy''s fortress in Ponta Delgada. However, in the face of the thick fortress, the armor-piercing projectiles were not able to prate it. But the violent explosion shook the artillery of the German Navy inside to the ground.


    Although the fortress of the German Navy fought back fiercely, the hit rate was very low when fighting at night. Coastal fortresses are not equipped with artillery radar. In addition, the warships of the US Navy are still on the move, and it is even more difficult to hit them.


    "Huh! The Germans are just wasting shells in vain. Soon, we will destroy them!" Admiral Hasben Kimmel looked confident.


    Although the German Navy actually built a coastal defense fort here, it was somewhat beyond their expectations. However, these coastal defense fortresses generally did not cause them much trouble.


    But what Admiral Hasben Kimmel didn''t know was that real trouble was about to begin.


    In the bay a few kilometers away from Ponta Delgada, torpedo boats tore off their camouge. These torpedo boats have already started and started to sail out of the bay and rush towards the battlefield.


    The torpedo boat with dozens of tons can reach a speed of 40 knots under the power of a powerful diesel engine. Coupled with the 533mm heavy torpedo, it is undoubtedly an extremely powerful threat. This is especially true when fighting back at night.


    In addition, under the surface of the sea, one after another, German submarines also extended their periscopes and began to observe their surroundings. And start to move slowly, adjust the position, and strive to enter the bestunch position.


    "What it is?"


    The sea search radar on the battleship ''Montana'' discovered the target that was attacking them at high speed from the coast.


    "What? A German warship?" The officer in charge of the radar also frowned.


    "Could it be a torpedo boat?" A soldier asked suspiciously.


    "Torpedo boat? Bastard, call the police immediately!" The officer shouted loudly.
