Imperial Overlord

: 1118 Bombing the Crimea

The explosion crushed the explosion and spread in the Sevastopol area. The Soviet plane was blown up on the ground before it took off.

​​

The ju-88 bombers that attacked the airport were all low-altitude bombers. The bombs dropped by these planes were more accurate than the ju-118.

​​

Before the Soviet army could recover, the airport was submerged in explosions and flames.

​​

The German planes overwhelmed the sky and caught the Soviet defenders off guard. Although the anti-aircraft guns still responded, in the face of the German bombing, the counterattack was as weak as a moan.

​​

In the Soviet barracks in the underground bunker, the Soviet soldiers are urgently gathering. They have underground passages to enter the combat area, but who would have expected the attack to come from above?

​​

According to the specifications of the fortifications built in Sevastopol, this level of bombardment could not damage the solid fortifications at all.

​​

But since the German army has kicked off a large-scale bombing today, it will definitely not be as simple as the bombing at this level.

​​

"Assemble! Assemble! Enter the bunker! Prepare to fight!" With the sound of the broadcast in the underground bunker, the Soviet soldiers ran fast in the tunnel with their weapons in hand.

​​

"The navy left in the middle of the night last night, doesn't it mean that the German fleet could kill here this afternoon?" An officer buckled his helmet in confusion and asked the officer beside him.

​​

Beside him was a commander of the garrison infantry regiment, who also put on a steel helmet at this time, and replied impatiently, "Who knows! There is no accurate news!"

​​

In order not to affect the morale of the army, the top Soviet leaders are also concealing the bad news of various defeats on the front line. Therefore, all the garrison officers in the Sevastopol theater can only rely on hearing and hearing to grasp the dynamics of some front lines.

​​

Last night, the Soviet Black Sea Fleet left in a hurry, and only then did the news reach the coastal defense forces: the German navy had entered the Black Sea, and they had to be on alert early the next morning to prevent the German army from attacking from the sea.

​​

However, the day just dawned, no matter how you calculated it, the German fleet would never arrive in Sevastopol at this time! After all, it was a fleet, and the speed of movement could not exceed 20 knots. To reach the Crimean Peninsula, it would be afternoon anyway.

​​

Who would have thought that before the fleet on the sea arrived, the German planes were dispatched first. And this dispatch is on the scale of three or four hundred.

​​

"What about the intercepted fighter jets? Did they take off successfully?" Feeling the ground shaking under his feet, General Vasilevsky, the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Sevastopol garrison, asked himself with a frown. Subordinate Road.

​​

Originally, as Stalin's chief of staff, Vasilevsky had been working as abbot in Moscow.

​​

But because Stalin went south, he was transferred to Stalingrad, where the abbot worked. Then after Stalin decided to go south to Stalingrad, he went to Kyiv and had been helping Zhukov guard the front line.

​​

As Kyiv moved closer to the front, his job was taken over by the more defensive General Govorov.

​​

Instead of ordering him to return to Stalingrad, Stalin found him a good place in Sevastopol on the Crimean Peninsula.

​​

When Zhukov and Vatutin were fighting to go to Sevastopol in Kharkiv, they didn't know that Chief of Staff Vasilevsky was already there.

​​

After General Gorshkov led the Black Sea Fleet to leave Sevastopol, all the naval soldiers left by Crimea were handed over to General Kuznetsov.

​​

Therefore, the current Crimea can be described as a gathering of famous generals. The Soviet commander lineup here is actually very luxurious.

​​

"General! The Air Force can't get in touch... I don't know how many enemy planes are bombing, and I don't know how many of our planes have taken off and intercepted." Beside Vasilevsky, an officer answered.

​​

Their headquarters are dozens of meters deep underground, which can be said to be very safe. But the vibrations caused by the bombing by the Germans can still be felt, and the dull sound of the explosions makes people palpitate.

​​

"Contact the Air Force as soon as possible. We need to know the number of enemies and their movements before we can continue the fight..." Vasilevsky said this, and walked out with people.

​​

Through the not-so-narrow corridor, he came to the upper underground bunker. There are more personnel here, and there are some warehouses for storing food and ammunition.

​​

"The port was bombed, and the enemy in the city threw a lot of incendiary bombs. It was a new type of bomb, and it burned very badly..." An officer put down the receiver in the telephone room and shouted to the statistics officer in the distance.

​​

After he finished shouting, he saw that Vasilevsky walked in with people, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking. The bombing came so suddenly, it caught everyone off guard.

​​

"The enemy threw incendiary bombs. We have several underground bunkers that we can't get in touch with. The signal troopers have been dispatched and are confirming these bunkers." An officer saw Vasilevsky walk in~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Loud reporting.

​​

"The enemy's bombing didn't target the fortress?" Vasilevsky confirmed while walking to the front of the map.

​​

"Yes, according to the feedback from the observation post at the upper level, the enemy's aircraft did not target the fort, nor did it target the main body of the fortress..." The officer replied: "Perhaps, they didn't know exactly what our fortress was. position."

​​

"Don't think of the enemy as a fool!" Vasilevsky coldly interrupted his subordinate's guess and said, "Do you know that the German reconnaissance planes come to the Crimea several times a day?"

​​

The modified ju-118 and ju-88 reconnaissance planes used by the German military visited the Crimean Peninsula every day, taking various photos and comparing them.

​​

As for the location of the Crimean fortress, the Fuhrer's "shadow intelligence agency" has long given a relatively accurate description of the Germans' understanding of the fortifications on the Crimean Peninsula, which is much deeper than what the Soviets had guessed.

​​

"They are bombing the airfield at a key point! Paving the way for the fleet to arrive in the afternoon!" Without much guessing, Vasilevsky guessed the operational purpose of the Luftwaffe.

​​

As long as the air force takes down the Soviet airfields, wouldn't the German fleet go wherever they want? Not to mention running rampant on the Black Sea, you can also lay siege to Sevastopol at your leisure!

​​

"If I'm not mistaken, the field airfields on the Crimean Peninsula may have been lost!" Vasilevsky said bitterly: "Don't count on air dominance!"
