Chapter 1224

"Boom!" The British battleship Nelson is ready to fire on the German battleships, while the German Navy battleship fleet is now left with the strength to persevere, The fire return became scattered and slow, and the whole fleet lost the spirit that battleships should have in the decisive battle.

With the British cannonball hitting the bridge of the battleship Marshal Ryder, the flagship communication of the German battleship fleet was interrupted for a time. The Belarusian battleship that followed caught fire and exploded, and some parts even splashed onto the Ukrainian battleship.

Fortunately, the German Navy's main battleship, marshal Reidel, was still firing back. One by one, 380mm main gun shells flew to the British Navy's battleship fleet. Finally, one of the shells fired by these guns hit the smoking battleship "villain", which once again caused damage to the British battleship.

Marshal Reidel was standing on the bridge of the aircraft carrier Empire, looking at the news of the wounded battleship Reidel sent by the officers in the telegraph room. It was hard to see the extreme expression on his face. It was a battleship named after him. When that battleship was in service, he was once famous for its name.

This name reflects the trust of the head of state, and also represents his personal prestige in the Navy. But now, this battleship was hit by the enemy, and it was seriously injured, which made Randall feel shameless and even very upset.

He looked at lutjans around him and suddenly asked, "general lutjans, let the aircraft carrier troops take off to attack the aircraft group as soon as possible! I order you to sink the flanking fleet as soon as possible! You can't let the other side get closer to you any more! "

"Yes! Marshal! The carrier plane has been loaded and is in the process of taking off the formation... In a few minutes, they will be able to fly to the British sub fleet and sink those damned British battleships! " If he knew what to explain, he was not in the mood to listen to it, so lutjans didn't say any other nonsense. He just said that the carrier plane had started to take off.

Now, all fools know that it is impossible to win this naval battle by relying on the battleship troops. In order to recover the losses, we have to continue to take off the aircraft on the carrier and attack the British naval fleet. So lutjans ordered the planes to take off as soon as possible to carry out the first round of assault on the Royal Navy sub fleet led by the battleship villain and the battleship Nelson.

Just when the German Navy was in a hurry to take off the carrier based aircraft to recover the decline in the battle of battleships, a good news came from the main fleet of the British navy: the aircraft carrier Ark Royal lost the possibility of rescue because of the explosion. The aircraft carrier sank slowly in the fire, with loud explosions from time to time.

What lutjans and the German Navy still don't know is that because the explosion came too suddenly and too quickly, few people on the Royal ark survived, including general Dudley pound, commander in chief of the British Royal Navy and commander in chief of the Allied Atlantic Fleet. After a year's hard support for the Royal Navy in Canada, this cautious British veteran drew an end to the hegemony of the entire Royal Navy fleet with sacrifice in this naval battle.

All the commanders, including the captain of the Royal ark, were not spared in the huge explosion that collapsed half the bridge and blew up a section of the chimney. Dazed general Dudley pound didn't even leave his last words, but with the explosion he became a general who had been killed.

The British Royal Navy Fleet, which lost its commander, had to send a telegram to general connerson, who had successfully raided, and handed over the command of the whole battlefield to the captain of the traitor: "unfortunately, general Dudley pound has died... Now you will take over the command of the battlefield, and our fleet will maintain its current route until we receive a new mission, Keep going for the German fleet on the high seas

After seeing the telegram, connerson had no time to refuse. He can only reply to each other, with a very concise tone: "received!" Then he gave his first order after taking over all the ships of the Royal Navy: "continue to advance towards the German Navy, and surround and annihilate the remaining German ships with artillery."

Under this order, the British Navy continued to move closer to the German Navy, and at the place where the battleships exchanged fire, the two fleets continued to bombard each other without any intention of retreating. British Navy battleships began to concentrate their artillery, all the guns are aimed at the middle of the German Navy line has been on fire in Belarus.

This is a way of fighting in naval warfare. First, the wounded warship of the other side is completely sunk, and the personnel of the other side is reduced and the formation is broken with the fastest speed. In this way, the morale of the other side can be hit and the forces of the other side can be reduced as much as possible. The Royal Navy has used this tactic more than once to defeat the superior enemy.

In China, there is an old saying that it is better to break one finger than to hurt ten fingers, which is also the truth. Therefore, the Belarusian battleship, which had lost its combat capability, was hit by another round of shells before it could be repaired. The round hit the thickest part of the armor and destroyed the main gun turret in the bow.

The huge explosion completely destroyed the turret. There were only two barrels of the three cannons left, and the remaining two seemed to have no soul. There was no movement on the deck. With this hit, the Belarusian battleship also completely lost its combat capability, and the whole ship began to tilt slightly“ Abandon the ship The captain of the Belarusian battleship has not had much courage to continue fighting until now. He knew that the only reason his warships were still floating at sea was because the water had not yet reached a certain amount. In terms of combat capability, his warship is no different from sinking. He once sent a telegram to his flagship, Admiral Ryder, asking the commander Bastian to give him permission to abandon the ship. But before the telegram was answered, the flagship's bridge was hit by a shell fired by the British navy. Up to now, he has not been able to wait for the answer he wants. He can only make his own decisions and give orders to all personnel to abandon the ship and escape. After the order was given, with the explosion and fire, the sailors on the Belarusian battleship began to jump away from their battleships, and the soldiers on the other side began to put down the lifeboats on the ship with cranes. There were cries for help and cries everywhere. When the German army did not abandon the ship, another round of shells landed near the Belarusian, killing many soldiers and hitting the sinking battleship“ FireStarter! FireStarter! The Belarusian is finished. Are we going to be the next Belarusian? " On the bridge of the Ukrainian battleship, the commander desperately urged his men to fire shells as soon as possible to drive the incoming Royal Navy battleship. He just got the notice from the main fleet. Not far behind the German battleship fleet, the wounded British battleship Queen Elizabeth and Ramirez are coming as fast as they can. Obviously, the other side has already made dumplings for the German battleship fleet. Now it seems that at least the German battleship fleet is in danger at this moment“ Field marshal Ryder is calling! General Bastian has resumed communication! " A naval officer ran to his boss with a message. When he heard that his commander was safe and communication was restored, the bridge of the Ukrainian battleship cheered. At least they don't have to fight alone without command. This is a rare piece of good news for the inexperienced German Navy. With the recovery of communication, the German battleship fleet began to perk up. The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, which made up for the lack of shooting training of the German Navy to a certain extent. Then the German battleship marshal Reidel launched a salvo fire again, and hit the British battleship villain in front. The two sides started to fight against each other. The shells hit the hull, and the explosion and fire kept rolling. At the same time, the two battleships emitted thick smoke, as if the pieces of purgatory were scattered on the sea. On the other side, however, the Nelson battleship rolled over the Ukrainian battleship. Six cannons fired almost at the same time, and two shells hit the side of the Ukrainian battleship. All of a sudden, the two main turrets of the Ukrainian battleship were dumb, which made general Bastian anxious and did not know what to do. The fighting didn't last long, but it was as long as half a century for commander Bastian and commander connerson. Every time they opened fire, they were very nervous. At least they hoped that their attack would create a miracle and turn the situation of the whole naval battle around. Unfortunately, in the end, it's not the German battleships or the British battleships that turn the tide of naval warfare around... It's the carrier based aircraft units of the German Navy that take off in an emergency. Although the speed of the German carrier fleet's take-off aircraft was slower because of the need to meet the returning wave 5 attack aircraft group, these carrier based aircraft were killed on the battlefield before the German battleships were completely destroyed“ Wuwu... "When Stuka flew over the top of the German Navy battleship with the roaring engine, Bastian almost burst into tears. He really didn't want to continue the naval battle any more!
