Chapter 711: Heavy Casualties

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

One after another, large-caliber naval artillery shells, under the action of huge kinetic energy, smashed into Shizuoka. An earth-shattering explosion sounded in the city of Shizuoka. The powerful power of large-caliber artillery shells is directly and vividly revealed.

Because of the attack on the city, the German expeditionary fleet was specially replenished with a batch of high-explosive bombs during the supply last night. The houses in the island countries are all made of wood, and high-explosive shells can play the most role.

"Boom!"

A 380-mm shell hit a courtyard, and the shock wave spread in all directions, directly leveling the entire courtyard. The people who lived in this courtyard were killed cleanly.

"Run! The Germans opened fire. ”

The islanders in Shizuoka Castle are scattered and want to escape from here. But how can a person's legs outrun a cannonball?

In the narrow streets, countless islanders are crowding out of the city. A cannonball fell from the sky. After the explosion, a large area has been emptied. Broken pieces of flesh and blood were everywhere. There was a huge crater left in the street. Those who were lucky not to die groaned in pain on the ground.

"Damn the Germans, they're slaughtering civilians! Quick, report to Tokyo, we are under shelling by the Germans, there are heavy casualties, ask for reinforcements! A magistrate commanded in a loud voice.

However, even if it is reported to Tokyo, it is clear that it will not be able to change the current situation in Shizuoka. By the time rescue arrives in Tokyo, Shizuoka will probably be in ruins. What's more, Tokyo may not have the courage to come to their rescue.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

On the sea, the nine battleships of the German expeditionary fleet lined up and opened fire fiercely, smashing shells into Shizuoka one after another, destroying life there and blowing the city into ruins.

Vice Admiral Spee stood on the bridge of the battlecruiser "Mackenson" and watched all this with a telescope. Although it is too far away to see clearly. However, he could clearly see that the whole city was turning into ruins little by little.

"Order all the light cruisers to join the attack. We need to destroy this place in the shortest possible time. Then, move on to the next objective! Lieutenant General Spee ordered.

"Yes, General." Major General Maugf faithfully carried out Lieutenant General Spee's orders.

Eight light cruisers, having received the order, immediately went out less than five kilometers from the coast and opened heavy fire on Shizuoka with naval guns. Although, the guns of these light cruisers were all 150 mm. However, for a city with predominantly wooden buildings, it can still be devastating.

After eight light cruisers joined in the shooting, the speed at which Shizuoka was destroyed really increased a lot.

"Oh God! We're destroying a city with our own hands, and it's a wonderful feeling! ”

"Kill so many people, God will let us go to hell."

"No, we'll go to heaven. Because, the people of the island country can't be counted as people at all, they are as thin as monkeys. Besides, it was the islanders who provoked the empire first. This time, the Empire is nothing more than a passive counterattack. ”

The sailors of the German expeditionary fleet, while joking, opened fire. You can feel that they have little to be ashamed of.

The island countries seized Southeast Asia, which made the people in Germany very angry, and the soldiers of the army were even more eager to kill all the island people. It is precisely because of this that they did not resist the orders given by Lieutenant General Shi Pei at all.

At this moment, Shizuoka has become like hell. Houses have been blown up or are burning. The streets are densely covered with large and small craters. Stumps and broken arms can be seen everywhere.

The islanders are fleeing the city. However, from time to time, shells exploded in the crowd, taking away the lives of each other.

"Boom!"

A 380-mm shell landed on the road out of the castle west of Shizuoka. At this moment, this road is already crowded with islanders who are ready to flee the city. The power of the 380-mm shell is undoubtedly very impressive. At least hundreds of islanders lost their lives and countless others were injured in the explosion of this shell.

"Amaterasu! Come and save us! What sin have we created to suffer such suffering? An old man knelt on the ground and cried. His wife, son, daughter-in-law and grandson all died in the explosion. Even he himself lost both legs. There was no one to treat him, he could only feel his own life, as the blood kept flowing out.

It was undoubtedly a day of suffering for the islanders living in Shizuoka. The whole city burned in the explosion.

German shells set the wooden houses on fire. To make matters worse, the sea breeze was so strong that the flames were flying everywhere. Soon it was as if the whole city was on fire. Many islanders who did not have time to flee the city were buried in the fire and burned to ashes.

The shelling of the German expeditionary fleet lasted a full two hours before it ended. When they stopped shelling, Shizuoka was like a torch burning.

The ashes rushed into the sky with the air current, obscuring the sky and even blocking the sun's rays.

"Let's go, let's go to the next city." Lieutenant General Shi Pei coldly gave the order.

He knew that Shizuoka was finished. He didn't know how many islanders had died in their shelling. But he knew that there would be many, many more. However, he did not regret giving such an order. Who made it impossible for the islanders to control their ambitions and dare to touch the colonies of the Empire? So, they have to pay for it.

Of course, Lieutenant General Shi Pei's heart is not calm. However, his good psychological quality did not allow all this to be shown.

"Yes, General!" Major General Maofu gave the order with an ugly face. Although he told himself over and over again that those island people deserved to die. However, there is still something unnatural in my heart.

After receiving the order, the fleet evacuated Shizuoka and moved on to the next target. Next on the list of targets for Lieutenant General Spee's attack was Hamamatsu in southern Shizuoka, which is only a few dozen kilometers away. The German expeditionary fleet traveled from Shizuoka to Hamamatsu in just two hours. Lieutenant General Spee planned to destroy Hamamatsu in two hours before moving on to the next target. The third target is Nagoya.

As long as the island's navy does not leave the port and fights the German expeditionary fleet, they will continue to fight. Until all the coastal cities of the island nation are completely destroyed.
