Thick smoke billowed out from the chimney of the number 'Königsberg' Light Cruiser. Under the pressure of high-temperature steam, Steam Turbine began to operate rapidly, and the speed of the battleship suddenly began to increase continuously.
A few minutes later, the speed of the 'Königsberg' Light Cruiser increased to more than thirty knots. On land, a speed of thirty knots may be nothing at all. However, for a warship in the ocean, a speed of thirty knots is undoubtedly very fast.
In particular, the target number Light Cruiser, number 'Königsberg', is rushing towards at this moment. It is the flagship number 'Nevada' of American fleet, number Battleship. Such a move made American fleet even more nervous.
"General, the Germany people are rapidly approaching us." Panic, a US military staff officer, shouted.
"What's going on? What do those Germany people want to do?" Admiral Fletcher also exclaimed.
"Damn it, are they trying to hit us?" said a US military officer.
Admiral Fletcher was stunned, and he subconsciously wanted to order the fire to sink the 'Königsberg' number Light Cruiser. However, the words were already on his lips, but he swallowed them back. Of course, with the strength of American fleet, it can easily sink the 'Königsberg' number Light Cruiser and tear it into pieces. However, if they dare to open fire, it will inevitably trigger a war between the United States and the United States.
"Sir, what should we do now? German warship is getting closer to us and it is already very dangerous!"
"Warn them to stop advancing immediately. Otherwise, we will open fire!" Admiral Fletcher ordered with a livid face.
However, 'Königsberg' number Light Cruiser completely ignored American fleet's warning. The battleship rushed towards Battleship, the flagship of American fleet, 'Nevada' at a speed of up to 32 knots.
"General, Germany people are ignoring us!"
"Crazy! Are those Germany people a bunch of lunatics? Don't they know that if they dare to hit our Battleship, that will be an act of war?" Admiral Fletcher shouted loudly. In his eyes, every one of the German Navy officers and soldiers on the German Navy's 'Königsberg' number Light Cruiser has become a lunatic. However, it is that kind of lunatic who is undoubtedly the most terrifying.
"Sir, should we fire at them. At this distance, the possibility of us hitting them is very high. As long as one main gun shell hits, it can be severely damaged or even sunk. Our crisis will be relieved." An officer suggested.
"Idiot! If we open fire, then a war will break out between us and Germany. No one can bear such consequences." Admiral Fletcher said with a cold face. Of course he wanted to issue an order to sink the Light Cruiser ship German Navy. However, the consequences were not something he could bear. Therefore, he could only suppress the anger in his heart.
"Sir, what should we do? Are we just going to watch the Germany people crash into us? With the size and speed of the Germany people's ship, it is certainly impossible to sink us. However, it can also cause us serious damage."
"Order other destroyers and cruisers to escort us. If necessary, we can ram German warship." Admiral Fletcher issued the order.
Since German Navy wants to hit their flagship, they can naturally use the same method to fight back.
However, American fleet's reaction was still a little slow. After the speed of the 'Königsberg' Light Cruiser has been completely increased, the Light Cruiser and destroyers of the American Navy that have not yet completed the speed increase cannot intercept the 'Königsberg' Light Cruiser at all. On the contrary, he was avoided.
"Hans, very good, well done. You are definitely the best navigator among Imperial Navy." On the bridge of the Light Cruiser Königsberg, Lieutenant Colonel Erich Raeder laughed.
"Of course, my dream is to drive a battleship like a speedboat. If one day I can become the Navigation Captain of Battleship, that would be great!" Major Navigation Captain Hans said with a smile on his face.
"Hans, I promise, you will have a chance. One day I will become the captain of Battleship, and I will definitely let you be my captain!" Lieutenant Colonel Erich Raeder said with great solemnity.
As time passed, the number 'Königsberg', number Light Cruiser, was getting closer and closer to the number 'Nevada', number Battleship. They had successfully thrown away the US warships that came to intercept them, and aimed the bow of the ship at the weak middle part of the Battleship of the 'Nevada'.
"God! Those Germany people are really crazy, they really dare to bump into us!"
"Idiot, turn quickly, don't let Germany people hit you." Admiral Fletcher shouted loudly. For American Navy, every Battleship is an extremely valuable combat capability. If they are hit hard, their combat power will be severely damaged.
"Very well, all positions, please pay attention. We are about to collide with Americans's battleship. Everyone, hold on to the handrails and don't be thrown out." Lieutenant Colonel Erich Raeder ordered.
For a moment, the German Navy soldiers on board the Light Cruiser number Königsberg were each holding tightly on something that could fix their bodies to avoid being thrown out by the strong inertia during impact. When a battleship is sailing at high speed, once it is thrown out, it will definitely mean vulgarity.
"Damn it, prepare for collision!" Admiral Fletcher couldn't get rid of German Navy's 'Königsberg' number Light Cruiser, so he had to prepare for collision with a livid face.
Now, he can only pray that the powerful defense of 'Nevada' number Battleship can withstand the impact of German Navy's Light Cruiser.
"Boom!"
"Crunch!"
Under everyone's gaze, the 'Königsberg' Light Cruiser hit the midships of the 'Nevada' Battleship hard. Although, the armor of the 'Nevada' Battleship is very thick, and the armor in the middle part of the ship is also 343 mm thick. However, under the cutting of the sharp bow of the 'Königsberg' Light Cruiser, the armor was still torn apart, making a sound that made people's teeth hurt.
However, the 'Königsberg' Light Cruiser is, after all, just a medium-sized warship with a displacement of only over 5,000 tons. After colliding with a Battleship with a displacement of up to 30,000 tons, the consequences can be imagined. The entire bow of the battleship was almost destroyed. Of course, exchanging one's own serious injuries for the serious injuries of Battleship's ship, American Navy, is undoubtedly a very cost-effective deal.
