Chapter 2120： Fight for the weak three

It was this guy who sank a destroyer and a torpedo boat in close combat. The powerful firepower of this destroyer made people feel terrifying. If it weren’t for its own 4-inch gun, it could easily penetrate the opponent’s side. Lieutenant Brown even thought I ran into a light cruiser! But now everything is over, this guy is dead. The entire deck was covered by flames, and a complete superstructure could hardly be found. All three chimneys were destroyed, and only a pile of twisted scrap iron remained in the six gun positions above. The rear deck of the battleship was almost level with the waterline. All that remains for the British is to use torpedoes to send him into the sea.

"Although we are enemies, I have to say that these guys are the best and bravest fighters. Even though we are enemies, we have to show respect for their fighting. Therefore, I hope that if one day we meet According to their situation today, we can fight to the last minute." Lieutenant Brown said to his men.

The destroyer Goshawk gradually approached the target. When approaching 400 meters, it crossed the ship’s side and opened the torpedo port. However, at this moment something unexpected happened to the British. The dying destroyer suddenly began to accelerate. ! And quickly pointed the bow at the British destroyer that was approaching! When the German destroyer, which was nearly 100 meters long, crossed over, the distance between the two sides was less than 300 meters!

"Hurry up and release the torpedoes!" Two torpedoes on the Goshawk flew out of the launch tube. However, because of the rush, the torpedoes were fixed depth apart from the problem. The two torpedoes rushed through the lower part of the destroyer S123, and then in the UK. In the horrified eyes, the bow of the destroyer S123, like a long knife, slammed into the middle of the destroyer Goshawk. With the vibration of the hull and the sound of metal breaking, the bow of the destroyer S123 and the ship’s side of the Goshawk Under the violent impact, it became a pile of debris at the same time! Hundreds of thousands of tons of sea water poured into the two battleships along the torn cracks. A few minutes later, the two destroyers sank into the sea at the same time!

"Damn, I take back what I said before, this is a bunch of lunatics! The purpose of their battle is not to win but to kill the enemy!" Lieutenant Brown said angrily.

As for another German large destroyer, the performance of destroyer S119 did not humiliate the high seas fleet. After destroying two British torpedo boats, the destroyer engaged a British light cruiser for 25 minutes, until the German fleet temporarily escaped from Britain. During the pursuit of the battleship, the destroyer still bit the British light cruiser Budika. Although the destroyer S119 was not as powerful as the death of the S123, from a strategic point of view, the destroyer S119 did The contribution of the battle is the highest! It is because he pinned a light cruiser, so that the other warships of the 7th Lightning Strike Unit had the opportunity to buy more time for the main fleet of Earl Spey!

"It's a German destroyer!" Just as the Thomas Fleet was attacking Spey's fleet in an orderly manner, a lookout suddenly pointed to the German destroyers rushing out of the night in the distance. These destroyers released smoke before the charge. A black smoke screen obscured the lightning striker's figure. The British could only see a cloud of smoke rushing towards the main fleet, but could not tell where the opponent was! And these destroyers are the remaining destroyers and torpedo boats of the seventh lightning squad that just finished the lightning strike and are ready to return!

Even though they have all torpedo out, the British don’t know! In the face of this sudden lightning squad, Thomas could only look at the assassins hidden in the dark in disgust, and then sighed.

"Turn the fleet to the left by 2 compass points and avoid the German torpedo boats! Send a signal to Lieutenant Colonel Hall!! Kill me all these messy trash fish!" When Thomas gave this order, his heart was bleeding! The large reverse rotation of the fleet undoubtedly opened the distance with the German fleet, and the heading deviation caused by the turning made all the previous shooting data invalid! The British fleet needs to re-range and shoot! This will undoubtedly give the German main fleet breathing time!

The British main fleet chose to evade, and under the leadership of the Royalist light cruiser, more than double-digit light cruisers and destroyers rushed towards the German 7th Destroyer Squadron, and dozens of medium-caliber artillery guns on dozens of warships After five German destroyers fired a dense barrage, facing the shelling like a rolling wall of flame, the German destroyer squadron did not shrink back. They struggled to move through the explosion and the water column, drawing strips on the sea. Curved track.

A shell landed on the hull, and every attack was like a giant hitting with a heavy hammer. Shrapnel and flames flew around in the cabin, sweeping down the German naval officers and soldiers fighting like wheat. The flanks of the destroyer were beaten into honeycombs by shells from repeated hits. The high temperature generated by the British picric high-explosive bombs even ignited the metal parts. The destroyer S95, which was at the forefront, was first set on fire! This small destroyer with a displacement of more than 500 tons lasted less than 5 minutes and was broken into pieces by shells fired from multiple directions!

The fastest rush is The two destroyers tried to rush through the gap in the British fleet. At a distance of less than 400 meters, the two destroyers used artillery to kill a British destroyer and rushed. Arrived less than 3000 meters away from Thomas' flagship! At this time, two British light cruisers blocked the latter’s path, and finally faced the British light cruiser like a lion, and the German destroyer, which was at most two wolves, bravely rushed up!

After a burst of rapid artillery fire, the destroyer S97 finally rushed to a place less than 900 meters away from the battleship Bold! Under the attack of the secondary artillery array on the side of the Bold, S97 suffered three huge explosions in a row! The flames rising into the sky are tens of meters high! Subsequently, the falling fragments even smashed into the command tower of the Daring.

"Damn it! We are fighting a group of demons today!" Seeing the broken pieces floating on the sea, Thomas took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his head. Objectively speaking, the opponent’s lightning strikes are not fatal. Even if the opponent uses torpedoes, the success rate of attacking at this distance and position is still not high, but this kind of courage to fight to the death obviously affects Thomas’ judgment, and he is worried more and more. The more German destroyers will rush up, and the **** warships prepared before seem to be insufficient? So, after hesitating for ten seconds, Thomas once again ordered the fleet to turn left half a compass point!

The second one is more~~~! Please subscribe for a reward~~~!
