"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
German Navy's nine Battlecruiser are pouring cannonballs on Island Nation Navy's Armored Cruiser. These arrogant Armored Cruiser now seem like weak quails, with no resistance at all and can only be slaughtered by German Navy.
"Boom!"
A 343mm Shell launched from the 'Moltke' number Battlecruiser hit the 'Asama' number Armored Cruiser of the Island Nation Navy. This Armored Cruiser, which has been in service for 16 years and has a displacement of more than 9,700 tons, seems so vulnerable in front of the huge Battlecruiser. The shell hit the bow main gun turret of the "Asama" Armored Cruiser.
The 152 mm thick main turret armor was no different from paper and was easily torn apart by 343mm Shell. The shell exploded inside the turret, destroying the entire turret. As for the gunner in the turret, he was blown to pieces immediately.
Although the shells in the turret had been fired, there was no fire, so no further damage was caused to the Armored Cruiser. But after Armored Cruiser, which only had two main turrets in total, lost one main turret, its firepower was immediately reduced by half!
"Baga! The Germany people are still closing the distance. Now our distance has been shortened to five thousand meters. If this continues, our battleship will probably be penetrated by the Germany people's Battlecruiser!" Captain Yoshioka Hansaku, the captain of the Armored Cruiser of the Asama, looked helpless. It's not that they don't work hard, but the strength gap between the two sides is too big! This gap is enough to make every Island Nation Navy officer and soldier feel desperate.
However, Yoshioka Hansaku Colonel's helplessness did not last long. Two minutes later, the 'Moltke' number Battlecruiser hit the 'Asama' number Armored Cruiser again. A shell penetrated the armor of the command tower, killing all the officers including Colonel Yoshioka Hansaku.
Subsequently, a shell penetrated the side of the "Asama" Armored Cruiser, blowing a big hole. In the end, the "Asama" Armored Cruiser also followed the footsteps of the "Izumo" Armored Cruiser and sank due to too much water.
The 'Tokiwa' number Armored Cruiser was even more tragic, and was attacked by German Navy. 'SMS Lützow' number Battlecruiser and 'Seydlitz' number Battlecruiser's Encirclement Offensive.
343mm Shell exploded one after another around it, splashing high water columns, making the Armored Cruiser, with a displacement of more than 9,700 tons, like a small boat in a storm, with the possibility of capsizing at any time.
Moreover, artillery shells continued to hit it, leaving it full of holes. The superstructure even burned like a torch. Under the two German Navy, Battlecruiser and Encirclement Offensive, it is really a miracle that the 'Tokiwa' Armored Cruiser can persist. But unfortunately, such a miracle will never happen.
Soon after the "Asama" Armored Cruiser sank, the "Tokiwa" Armored Cruiser sank into the sea. Of the more than five hundred sailors on the battleship, except for a handful of people, no one managed to escape.
Three Armored Cruisers sank in succession, and other Armored Cruisers were also in danger, which put great pressure on Island Nation Navys. If they continue to think of ways to change the situation, their losses will further rise.
"Boom! Boom!"
Among the shells fired by the Battlecruiser number 'Kongo', two 356mm Shell hit the Battlecruiser number 'Mackensen'. A shell hit the stern main battery turret of the 'Mackensen' Battlecruiser. But unfortunately, the shells still failed to tear through the thick turret armor and exploded outside.
Although, the huge impact knocked out the gunners inside. However, it did not cause more harm.
Another shell hit the side of the Battlecruiser 'Kongo', blowing up a 150mm Secondary Gun and killing several sailors.
Hitting two shells at once made Admiral Ijūin Gorō and Rear Admiral Yamashita Gentarō cheer. However, when they discovered that neither of the two shells caused much damage to the 'Mackensen' number Battlecruiser, they suddenly felt desperate.
However, being hit this time also made Vice Admiral Spee and Rear Admiral Mauff feel nervous and a little worried.
"Order the fleet to speed up and get rid of the battle line of the Island Nation people. Go around in front of their Armored Cruiser, seize Crossing the T, and launch a further attack on the Armored Cruiser of the Island Nation people." Vice Admiral Spee ordered.
"Yes, General!" Rear Admiral Mauff nodded. He knew that Vice Admiral Spee issued such an order in order to preserve his own strength as much as possible.
German Navy's battle line began to accelerate. The maximum speed of these Battlecruiser is above 25 knots. This allows them to easily increase the speed to more than 20 knots. The battle line of Island Nation Navy has done its best to maintain a speed of 16 or 7 knots. Once German Expeditionary Fleet's battle line speed increased, they could only watch the other side leave.
"Damn it, what did the Germany people want to do? They actually sped away!" Rear Admiral Yamashita Gentarō looked ugly. He didn't think German Expeditionary Fleet's battle line wanted to escape.
"They want to use their speed to get rid of us, and then deal with our Armored Cruiser!" Admiral Ijūin Gorō's face turned pale.
However, they knew German Navy's intentions, but they had no way to deal with it. Even those Island Nation Navy and Armored Cruiser had a maximum speed of just over twenty knots when they were built. After more than ten years of service, even with maintenance and repairs, it can still maintain a speed of 17 or 18 knots at most. In front of German Navy and Battlecruiser, this speed is simply not enough!
Half an hour later, the battle line of German Navy seized Crossing the T and began to fire concentrated fire at Armored Cruiser of Island Nation Navy.
The first one to be attacked was the Kasuga number Armored Cruiser. Even though this Armored Cruiser has been scarred, it is still persisting. However, during the intensive firing of German Navy's battle line, the Armored Cruiser was hit by more than ten shells in just two minutes. This is undoubtedly a fatal injury to Armored Cruiser, which has a displacement of only more than 7,000 tons.
The "Kasuga" Armored Cruiser was almost turned into pieces during the explosion, and then sank into the sea.
Immediately afterwards, the number 'Nisshin', the number 'Iwate', the number 'Azuma' and the number 'Yagumo' were not able to escape. They were torn into pieces under the terrifying firepower of German Expeditionary Fleet.
