"Asshole! Report the damage!" Otto? Lieutenant General Schneewind almost jumped up.
"General, the side was hit, and a secondary gun was blown away, igniting a fire!" Two minutes later, a damage control personnel reported.
"Put out the fire quickly!" Otto? Lieutenant General Schneewinter ordered with a dark face.
At this juncture, being hit by Island Nation people is not good news. After the warship catches fire, it will inevitably be bombarded by the enemy more violently. Especially after the firelight guides the enemy, the accuracy of the enemy's bombardment will definitely be improved.
"From such a distance, Island Nation people can hit us. Their luck is too good, right?" Major General Abraham's face was also very ugly. You know, the fighting distance between the two sides is now more than 18 kilometers. If it were daytime, this distance might be just right. But this is at night! There is no Fire-control Radar for Island Nation Navy.
Otto? Lieutenant General Schneewind nodded. His face was very ugly, and he was obviously worried about the bad luck of the Island Nation people. You know, at this distance and with severely obstructed vision, the possibility of hitting German fleet is very, very low, almost the same as winning the jackpot. But Island Nation people actually hit German Navy's battleship, which is undoubtedly very speechless.
A large number of damage control personnel wearing gas masks and dragging water hoses rushed to the place where the fire broke out. They must put out the fire in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, this will make 'Blücher' number Battlecruiser a magnet for artillery shells.
In fact, the moment the Battlecruiser of the 'Blücher' ignited a fire, the bombardment of the four Battleships of the Island Nation Navy became more intense. The officers and soldiers of Island Nation Navy all thought that their luck had come. Therefore, the frequency of shelling has been accelerated.
"Haha! Amaterasu Omikami bless you! We have hit Germany! Order all ships to seize this opportunity and sink German warship!" Lieutenant General Takasu Shirō beamed. When his flagship was hit one after another, he was able to successfully counterattack, which undoubtedly boosted the morale of Island Nation Navy. After all, Island Nation Navy thinks that he is very powerful. His loss to German Navy in the last naval battle was a complete accident.
The generals of Island Nation Navy generally believe that the aircraft carrier team of German Navy is stronger than Island Nation Navy. However, on Capital Ship Squadron, Island Nation Navy is in the lead. But unfortunately, in the last naval battle, Capital Ship Squadron of Island Nation Navy was completely defeated and suffered heavy losses in front of the German Navy battleship formation.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The Capital Ships main guns of both sides were firing wildly, smashing heavy shells at the other side's warships, trying to destroy or sink the other side's warships in the shortest possible time. This made this naval battle even more intense.
The flagship of the Island Nation fleet, the 'Suruga' number, Battleship, and the German fleet flagship, the 'Blücher' number, Battlecruiser, have all become targets of attack. The cannonballs were all heading towards the two battleships. Even though these warships are all huge warships with a displacement of more than 40,000 tons, once they are hit, the consequences will be very serious. If it takes more and more shells, it will only be a matter of time before it is sunk.
Especially when both the 'Suruga' number Battleship and the 'Blücher' number Battlecruiser caught fire, it was even more dangerous.
Damage control personnel on both sides were working desperately to put out the fire, trying to put out the fire before it suffered a more serious blow.
Thanks to the efforts of damage control personnel, the fire was finally put out five minutes after the No. Blücher No. Battlecruiser was hit. Within these five minutes, the Island Nation fleet failed to hit the 'Blücher' number Battlecruiser again. This caused everyone in the Island Nation fleet to watch helplessly as the huge figure of the 'Blücher' number Battlecruiser disappeared into the darkness.
"Baga!" Seeing this situation, Lieutenant General Takasu Shirō was very angry, but mostly helpless.
Fortunately, the fire on the 'Suruga' No. Battleship was also put out, which made Lieutenant General Takasu Shirō breathe a sigh of relief. Otherwise, the Island Nation fleet would be even more at a disadvantage in this naval battle.
But even so, German fleet still occupies a great advantage. They have the artifact Fire-control Radar, so the chance of hitting is naturally much higher than that of German fleet.
At 1:55, German fleet once again hit the number 'Suruga' Battleship. A 380mm Shell launched from the Battlecruiser number 'SMS Lützow' hit the After Deck number Battleship number 'Suruga'. The shell hit the No. 5 main battery turret on the stern of the Battleship ship 'Suruga'. The 300mm turret armor could not withstand the 380mm Shell fired by the fifty times caliber main gun, and was easily torn apart.
The shell exploded inside the turret, overturning the entire turret. All the Island Nation sailors inside were killed. At the same time, the overturned turret also withstood the No. 4 main turret, causing the two main guns of this turret to be jacked up and unable to continue firing. This directly caused the 'Suruga' number Battleship to lose 40% of its firepower.
"Your Excellency Commander, the two main turrets on After Deck have been destroyed." Major General Suzuki Yoshio reported.
Lieutenant General Takasu Shirō looked very ugly. He knew that the Island Nation fleet might be at a disadvantage this time. It would be very difficult to defeat German fleet.
"Sir Commander, German fleet, maybe there is really a way to find the target and launch an attack at night." Major General Suzuki Yoshio said.
After the last naval battle, the Island Nation fleet had already made speculations in this regard. Otherwise, German fleet would never have such a high hit rate.
Lieutenant General Takasu Shirō nodded. "The scientific research institute speculates that this is the application of Radar technology by Germany people. They must be relying on the advanced Radar to have such a high hit rate."
Both of their faces were very ugly, but at the same time, they were very helpless. Who makes the technological strength gap between Island Nation and Germany so big? German Navy can already use Radar to guide the main gun and improve the hit rate. But Island Nation Navy is still working hard to improve the detection range of Radar. This makes it extremely difficult for them to defeat German fleet.
"No wonder the Germany people dare not build new Capital Ships and use those old battleships to deal with us! This may be their confidence!" Lieutenant General Takasu Shirō sighed.
