"Very good, we finally killed Britain and one Battleship. Over at 1st Battle Line, we have already killed two Britain and two Battleship. We don't want to fall too far behind them! In that case, everyone's faces will not look good." Vice Admiral Hipper said with a smile.
"General, we have sunk the 'North Dakota', and soon we can sink more Britain's Battleship," the officer said. He seemed confident of winning.
In fact, every German Navy officer and soldier believed that they would win this battle.
"Americans's 'Nevada' number Battleship has really strong defense. Our 343mm Main Gun was not able to penetrate their turret armor. This is really a shame!" Vice Admiral Hipper said helplessly.
Otherwise, that shot alone would be enough to make Battleship pay an extremely heavy price for 'Nevada'.
"General, the armor of Americans's 'Nevada-class' Battleship is very thick, especially the turret armor which is more than 400 millimeters thick. It is a typical hard bone. It is very difficult to break it off!" the officer said.
Vice Admiral Hipper nodded. "Ask Admiral Spee when they can arrive. 380mm Main Gun of 'Mackensen-class' and 'Derfflinger class' may be able to crack Americans's turtle shell."
"If we fight at a distance of 10,000 meters, the 380mm Main Gun with fifty times the caliber should be able to armor the turret of the United States warship. There won't be much of a problem!" the officer said.
At this moment, Vice Admiral Spee is leading the 11 Battlecruiser ships of German Navy. Once they arrive, their occupation will be even more detrimental to Combined Fleet. Although the defense of Battlecruiser is slightly worse than that of Battleship, it is still very powerful. And the firepower is very powerful, which will make Combined Fleet lose this war, and it is very likely that it will be wiped out.
On British Navy's flagship 'Vengeance' number Battleship, the faces of John? Admiral Jellicoe and David? Vice Admiral Beatty are all very ugly. As time goes by, the numerical advantage of Combined Fleet over Capital Ships is being lost step by step. This made both of them feel that victory was slipping away from them.
"General, Admiral Martin reported that they have lost one Battleship. Almost all other warships have been suppressed by the Germany people. The situation is very unfavorable to us!" David? Vice Admiral Beatty said.
John? Admiral Jellicoe nodded. "It seems that we still take it too much for granted. Otherwise, this battle will not be fought like this. The strength of the Germany people is too strong. Even if we gather all the forces we can muster, we will not be able to defeat them.
John? Admiral Jellicoe's words were full of frustration and despair. This time, they have mobilized all the forces they can muster. If you can't defeat German Navy this time, then there will never be a chance to defeat German Navy again in the future. John? Admiral Jellicoe knows that British Empire will completely sink because of their failure. Even though they tried their best, they still couldn't stop it.
David? Vice Admiral Beatty opened his mouth, wanting to comfort John? Admiral Jellicoe, but he suddenly didn't know how to speak. Because, what John? Admiral Jellicoe said are all facts. The current situation is indeed too critical for them.
"Boom! boom!"
Violent explosions sounded, and the battle at the rear of the battle line became even more intense. Five German Navy battleships faced off against two German Navy battleships, and the two sides were evenly matched. This made French very ashamed, and also made John? Admiral Jellicoe and others very angry. If French Navy's performance could be better, maybe the current situation would be different. However, talking about this now is obviously of no use.
German Navy's 'King Albert' number Battleship once again achieved a hit. Two 343mm Shell hit the number 'Normandy' Battleship. A shell penetrated the waterline armor on the side of the 'Normandy'. Although the waterline armor of the 'Normandy' Battleship is 300 mm thick, it is still not able to withstand the 343mm Shell fired by the fifty times caliber main gun.
The more fatal damage came from the boiler room. A shell exploded directly in the boiler room after penetrating the armor. The violent explosion destroyed all the boilers in the boiler room. A large amount of high-temperature steam leaked out, killing the sailors inside. At the same time, the damage to the boiler room caused Battleship to lose power and its speed became slower and slower.
You know, in a naval battle, the damage caused by the explosion of the boiler room is second only to the explosion of the ammunition depot. 'Normandy' number Battleship was severely injured in an instant.
"Damn it, let's leave the 'Normandy' immediately and go to the 'Flanders' to continue commanding the battle! "Admiral Lame made a decision immediately. The number 'Flanders' has not been attacked, so it is safer.
German Navy's 'King Albert' number Battleship seized this opportunity and opened fire frantically at 'Normandy' number Battleship, hoping to sink it.
Before Admiral Lame had time to return to the 'Flanders' number Battleship, the 'Normandy' number Battleship was hit continuously. After losing its speed, the Battleship is no different from a dead fish floating on the sea. German Navy's 'King Albert' number Battleship can hit him easily.
"Boom! boom! boom! "Violent explosions continued to sound on the 'Normandy' Battleship, and the injuries of the Battleship were also getting worse.
Within five minutes, 'Normandy' No. Battleship took eight shells. This is undoubtedly a fatal injury to the 'Normandy' number Battleship.
Soon, the 'Normandy' number Battleship suffered serious damage, and the hull suffered great trauma. The entire battleship has been riddled with holes, and only one of the four main gun turrets can continue to fire. Others were destroyed. Seawater is also pouring into the battleship from the hole. Even the damage control personnel were in despair over such serious injuries.
This caused the number 'Normandy', Battleship, to sink into the sea quickly.
French Navy Now, there are only 4 Battleship left. Of all the battleships on Combined Fleet 1st Battle Line, there are only 12 left. This number is the same as 1st Battle Line of German Navy. However, in terms of combat effectiveness, 1st Battle Line, who was jointly attacked, was completely suppressed.
