"Asshole! Damn Germany people, open fire, let me sink them!" The captain of the Battleship number 'Ramillies' was furious. The behavior of 'Sachsen' number Battleship is a complete provocation to them!
The four-seat twin-mounted 381mm Main Gun numbered Battleship, 'Ramillies', began a fierce counterattack. However, because the gunner can only aim by himself. Therefore, the impact point of the artillery shell is very far away from the number 'Sachsen' number Battleship. The farthest point of impact was even five hundred meters away. Such bombardment made Royal Navy himself feel ashamed.
On the other hand, German Navy's 'Sachsen' number Battleship performed very well. Although it failed to hit the number 'Ramillies' Battleship, the impact point was not far away.
After receiving the order from John? Admiral Jellicoe, British Navy's 'determination' number Battleship and 'Royal Sovereign' number Battleship gave up on 'Baden' number The shelling of Battleship and 'Württemberg' number Battleship turned to fire on 'Sachsen' number Battleship, in an attempt to rescue the disadvantaged number 'Ramillies' number Battleship in this way.
"Order the 'Baden' and the 'Württemberg'. Continue to bombard the 'Resolution' and the 'Royal Sovereign', and use this rare opportunity to severely damage the Britain people!" Admiral Reinhard? Scheer ordered.
He did not change his previous strategy because of British Navy's tactics. After all, it is not that easy to hit British Navy's 'Determination' number and 'Royal Sovereign' number, and German Navy's 'Sachsen' number in a short time.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The battle between the two sides became more and more intense. Cannonballs continued to explode on the sea, revealing how tragic this naval battle was.
On the battle line of British Navy, the one who performed the most astonishingly was undoubtedly the 'Agincourt' number Battleship. This Battleship, originally built for Brazil, has up to 7 main gun turrets and a total of 14 305mm Main Gun. The installation of so many main turrets on the Battleship, which has a standard displacement of only more than 27,000 tons, certainly makes the Battleship have very powerful firepower. However, the price paid was unstable navigation and weak armor. Especially in terms of armor, the armor of Battleship of 'Agincourt' is not much thicker than that of Battlecruiser of British Navy. The thickest part of the waterline main armor belt is only 9 inches, or 228 mm, the turret armor is only 10 inches, or 254 mm, and the command tower's armor is 11 inches, or 280 mm. As for the deck armor, it is only 1 inch, as thin as a piece of paper. Once such a defense is hit, it will undoubtedly have only one result, and that is to be easily torn apart and cause heavy damage.
However, at least on the surface, 'Agincourt' number Battleship is undoubtedly full of vitality. 7 main turrets, firing continuously. Cannonballs continued to shoot towards German Navy's 'Regent Leopold', splashing water columns around it.
Although, the 'Regent Leopold' number Battleship only has three seats and a triple-unit 343mm Main Gun, which is a full 5 doors less than the 'Agincourt' number. But the 50 times caliber 343mm Main Gun is much more powerful than the 45 times caliber 305mm Main Gun. Especially when the armor of the 'Agincourt' Battleship is so weak, once it is hit by the 'Regent Leopold' Battleship, it will be enough to cause heavy damage to it.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The German Navy officers and soldiers aboard the 'Regent Leopold' number Battleship were not frightened by the powerful firepower of the 'Agincourt' number Battleship. They were still shooting in an orderly manner. After forming a straddle fire, the number 'Regent Leopold' Battleship had already turned into a salvo. It's just that I have never been able to get a hit.
However, many times good luck comes to people unexpectedly.
During this salvo of 'Regent Leopold', a shell hit the stern of the ship 'Agincourt' Battleship. You should know that three of the seven main gun turrets of the Battleship on the 'Agincourt' are deployed at the stern of the ship. The three main gun turrets at the stern of the ship are shaped like a pyramid, with the center high and the front and rear low. This allows these three main turrets to shoot in the same direction. However, deploying so many dense main guns poses a greater threat.
343mm Shell, under the influence of huge kinetic energy, has huge armor-piercing ability. Especially the armor of 'Agincourt' number Battleship was already very weak, and it was torn apart easily.
This shell hit the No. 6 main turret of the 'Agincourt', which is the main turret named Saturday (the seven main turrets of the 'Agincourt' and Battleship are named Monday to Sunday). The armor, which was only 254 mm thick, was torn apart as easily as paper in front of 343mm Shell.
After the shell penetrated the turret, it did not explode immediately. Instead, it continued downward and penetrated the fire door between the ammunition depot and the turret before exploding.
The explosion immediately detonated hundreds of artillery shells in the ammunition depot. What's even more terrible is that the three main gun turrets on the stern of the Battleship of the 'Agincourt' are next to each other, and the three ammunition depots are also close to each other. If the ammunition depot in the middle explodes, will the ammunition depots on both sides still survive? This just exploded.
The explosion of three ammunition depots was extremely powerful. The entire stern of the ship 'Agincourt' Battleship was blown up in the violent explosion. If you look down from the sky, you can see the 'Agincourt' number Battleship, as if it was bitten hard by a monster, directly biting off the stern of the ship.
Seawater poured into it crazily from the stern of the ship Battleship, 'Agincourt'. The Britain sailors on the battleship didn't even have time to do damage control and began to flee for their lives. They are not fools. They all know that after suffering such a heavy blow, the fate of the number 'Agincourt' Battleship has almost been decided. If you stay on the battleship any longer, you will be killed directly like those other unlucky ones.
British Navy's other officers and soldiers were also shocked by this situation. They really didn't expect that the number 'Agincourt' Battleship would be so fragile. Isn't it crazy that he was killed just by being hit by a cannonball?
John? Admiral Jellicoe and David? Vice Admiral Beatty also looked shocked. The battle has just started, are they going to lose one Capital Ships?
