Base command, central kotlin island.

Although the main force of the Baltic Fleet has been transferred to Tallinn, after all, kalonstad is still the most important traffic artery of the Soviet Union and an important base of the Navy.

Now in the base is rear admiral panteleyev. He heard the rumble on the beach outside. At this time, his face was quite ugly.

"Where are our fighters? Take off our fighters at once! " Panteleyev said, "the German Navy dares to hit our door."

Without such bullying, it's a shame that the other party's bomber came to his own door.

As the red flag Baltic Fleet, it is the largest fleet of the Soviet Union. In addition to various ships, it also has a powerful naval aviation force, with more than 300 fighters and nearly 200 bombers.

Now, the German air force is rampant and bombing their fleet. At this time, their fighters need to take off and go to expel them.

Major general panteleyev took office only two days ago. He had only literal data. Now, Colonel Petrov was quite helpless when he heard his words.

"We can't move any planes now."

"Why?"

"In order to defend Petersburg, marshal voroshinov mobilized all our airmen." Said Colonel Petrov.

When the Germans launched the war, they wiped out the air force in the west of the Soviet Union to the airport almost in an instant. After that, the German air force was almost active over the whole battlefield.

The Soviet Union caught up. They woke up from the hasty confrontation, and the huge state machine immediately started to mobilize weapons everywhere.

In the Soviet northern military region, field marshal voroshinov came in person. Stalin assigned him the task of protecting Petersburg, a sacred city, from German damage.

Therefore, voroshinov did his duty and transferred weapons and equipment from everywhere. For the time being, the naval aviation in the Baltic Sea seemed empty. Therefore, he simply transferred the naval aviation back to protect Petersburg.

The apparent reason is that the naval aviation base was also bombed. A new field base was built in Petersburg and the air force was mobilized first.

Therefore, after the war, under the German air raid, the Baltic naval airmen with less than 100 fighters were transferred to Petersburg.

In terms of distance, it's not far. The base here is only dozens of kilometers away from Petersburg, but it has involved cross service mobilization. After applying one by one, the Germans had already run away.

It must be too late to mobilize the air force now.

"Commander, no, our battleship Mara was sunk by the Germans!" Just then, the amazing news reached the headquarters.

"Our October Revolution battleship is sinking."

"Our No. 3 Coast Guard gun was destroyed."

One by one, intelligence was constantly reported. Panjieliev painfully covered his head and watched the collapse of the Baltic Fleet, but they could only watch and could not make any counterattack!

For the Baltic Fleet of the Soviet Union, this day was unforgettable.

Stuka bombers are raging in a small number. If the Baltic Fleet sends out even five fighters, they can expel them.

However, they did not. Their fleet was devastated by Stuka bombers, and their shore artillery positions were also bombed by Germany.

The anti-aircraft guns fired fiercely into the sky, as if to release their resentment, but it was useless. The German bombers seemed to hide. When their fire stopped, the Stuka bombers suddenly didn't know where to drill out and dive down towards the shore gun position.

On the sea, the rest of the warships are in a state of six gods and no masters.

The Baltic Sea has a huge scale. In terms of quantity, it has 2 battleships, 2 cruisers, 21 destroyers, 7 frigates and so on. Now, it is almost the main force of the whole fleet.

Two battleships have been attacked on the channel. They blocked the channel so that other warships outside could not pass through.

What's more, the admiral of the fleet is on the Mara. Because the Mara was sunk so fast, they don't know the life and death of the Admiral until now.

Without command, they were almost in a mess.

Originally, the cruiser Kirov followed the Mara. This cruiser is the latest cruiser that has been in service for 38 years, and this cruiser, as well as other destroyers and frigates in the fleet, are almost evidence of Soviet German friendship.

This warship with a displacement of 8000 tons is the largest warship built by the Soviet Naval Shipyard. The Soviet Union had no such experience. Fortunately, there is a close relationship between Germany and the Soviet Union, so this warship was almost designed by German engineers.

Other dezezinsky class frigates and Tashkent class destroyers in the fleet were built directly by the Germans. The Soviet Union only needed to barter with mineral resources, and this cruiser was built by the Soviets themselves with the help of Germany.

A few years ago, the relationship between the Soviet Navy and the German Navy was still very good. The two sides even held joint exercises in the North Sea. Unexpectedly, now the Germans have set up artillery against the Soviet Union.

On the bridge, Captain Alexandrov didn't know what it was like. Just after the two battleships were destroyed, the dive bombers almost came to him.

This warship was originally designed with the help of the Germans. The Germans are well aware of the weaknesses in air defense. If the other party swoops down, their own side will not be spared. Who would have thought that they turned around to fight shore artillery? Why?

"Alarm, German fleet found!" Just then, the lookout post on the mast suddenly shouted that a German fleet appeared on the sea in the distance!

Alexandrov turned his head, looked at the distance with his telescope, and immediately opened his mouth. The gun barrel was high, but it was a 380mm naval gun! In an instant, he recognized each other's model.

"Come on, get close to our shore, come on!" At this time, he already knew why the other party wanted to hit their shore guns, but now they had little choice but to rely on the protection of shore guns.
