"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The three 380mm Main Guns of the Battleship number 'Bavaria' were aiming at the Light Cruiser of the British Navy and opened fire violently. However, although the power of the 380mm heavy gun is amazing, it is still very difficult to hit the Light Cruiser at an altitude of 30 knots. However, 'Bavaria-class' Battleship, in addition to possessing 380mm Main Gun, is also equipped with 150mm Secondary Gun and 88mm Quick-firing Gun. These secondary guns and rapid-fire guns pose a fatal threat to the British Navy light battleship.

Admiral Reinhard? Scheer stood on the bridge, using binoculars to observe the British Navy light battleships that were rushing towards them at high speed. In front of the huge Battleship, these light warships are like wild dogs in front of a lion. However, the Heavy Torpedo launched by these light warships poses a fatal threat to the Capital Ships of German Navy. Therefore, they need to sink these British Navy light battleships before they launch Torpedo. In this case, there will no longer be any threats.

"Boom! Boom!"

The shells hit British Navy and Light Cruiser hard, but they all missed the target and hit the sea. However, General Reinhard? Scheer was not in a hurry at all. He knew that when Britain's Light Cruiser got closer, the hit rate would be further improved. At that time, it will be easy to hit the target.

Sure enough, when this British Navy and Light Cruiser rushed to a distance of almost eight kilometers from the 'Bavaria' Battleship, it was hit repeatedly. Although some 150mm Shell and 88mm artillery shells hit the target, the Light Cruiser was still set on fire.

But even so, this British Navy and Light Cruiser continue to charge. It was as if such injuries could not stop their actions at all.

Two minutes later, the Light Cruiser of the British Navy shook violently, as if it had been hit hard with a heavy hammer by a Colossus. The entire bow of the ship was suddenly torn apart.

A 380mm Shell from the ship number Bavaria, Battleship, scored a hit. Just this one shell blew the bow of the Light Cruiser to pieces. A large amount of seawater immediately poured into the Light Cruiser, causing the Light Cruiser to quickly sink into the sea.

After getting rid of the Light Cruiser of the British Navy, the Light Cruiser of the 'Bavaria' did not make any stop, and directly aimed at the Light Cruiser of the other British Navy, as if it had just swatted a fly to death, and there was nothing worth making a fuss about.

Indeed, in front of the huge "Bavaria" Battleship, those thousands of tons of Light Cruiser, British Navy, and smaller destroyers are like flies. If they are swatted to death, they will be swatted to death. There is nothing worth cherishing. Even though there are hundreds of Royal Navy officers and soldiers on board this Light Cruiser. Their life and death seemed to be unimportant at all.

The battle was very fierce. British Navy's lightweight Battleship launched a crazy attack in order to close the distance to less than two kilometers. And Capital Ships of German Navy, in order to stop the Britain people, is also launching a crazy bombardment. The dense shells fell so densely that it almost made the entire sea boil.

"Come on! Go faster. We'll be within Torpedo's shooting range soon." A British Army Captain officer shouted loudly. The speed of the British destroyer under his command has increased to 34 knots. Moreover, the speed is still being further improved.

Although, the displacement of this destroyer is only more than a thousand tons. However, it rushed towards German Navy's 'Mackensen' number Battlecruiser like an arrow from a string. As long as they can rush within two kilometers of the 'Mackensen' number Battlecruiser, they can launch Torpedo. 533mm Heavy Torpedo is enough to cause fatal damage to German Navy's 'Mackensen' number Battlecruiser.

However, just one minute later, the Light Cruiser broke into two pieces. A 380mm Shell directly broke its keel.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

German Navy's Light Cruiser and destroyers were also attacking with 150mm Main Gun and 105mm Main Gun, setting off a fire with British Navy's Light Cruiser and destroyers that were trying to launch a lightning strike on German Navy's battle line.

Similarly, those Light Cruiser and destroyers of British Navy are also fighting back. Although they have to rush within two kilometers before they can launch a lightning strike. But this does not mean that they will be beaten passively until then. Their main guns can also pose a fatal threat to German Navy, Light Cruiser and destroyers. What's more, after destroying these Light Cruiser and destroyers, it will be easier to launch an attack on German Navy's Capital Ships.

The battles between light warships are often the most brutal. Because the defenses of these light warships are very weak, once they are hit, they will often cause greater damage.

A British Navy destroyer, after a narrow escape, finally rushed within two kilometers of the German Navy's 'Caesar' Battleship.

Four 533mm Heavy Torpedo were launched immediately. These Torpedo, with a speed of more than thirty knots, shot towards the "Caesar" Battleship crazily.

The 'Caesar' Battleship immediately began to accelerate to evade. Although, the underwater armor of the 'Caesar' Battleship is very thick. But only a fool would be stupid enough to use Battleship to resist Torpedo. Especially Heavy Torpedo, that is simply seeking death. Commander of the 'Caesar' number Battleship is certainly not a fool.

However, the Torpedo launched by the British destroyer were distributed in a fan shape. The "Caesar" Battleship was able to evade the other three, but there was one that it could not avoid. As a last resort, the captain of the "Caesar" Battleship had to order the warship to prepare for lightning strikes. At the same time, pray to God, and pray that the underwater armor of the "Caesar" Battleship can withstand this Torpedo.

However, at this time, a German Navy destroyer bravely stood in front of the 'Caesar' Battleship, using its weak body to protect the 'Caesar' Battleship.

"Boom!"

A violent explosion sounded, and the destroyer was hit and blown into two pieces. However, the 'Caesar' Battleship was safe and sound.

"Asshole, sink the Britain destroyer for me!" the captain of the 'Caesar' Battleship ordered.

The destroyer British Navy was hit by a 343mm Shell fired by the "Caesar" Battleship when it was turning, and was directly sunk.
