Chapter 2256： Final Battle Three

(Page 1/1)

The final result is naturally needless to say. This shell ignited the remaining shells and propellant in the magazine at the bottom of the No. 3 turret. The explosion was so violent that the powerful shock wave directly tore the battleship in half! However, this is not over yet, the detonation of the No. 3 ammunition depot also ignited the ammunition in the No. 4 turret ammunition! As a result, the second half of Invincible's hull was directly protruded from the sea to a height of several meters, and then exploded into fragments in the sky! In the end, the first half of Invincible's hull plunged into the sea like a broken sword. The entire process of sinking was less than 45 seconds! And this battleship also became the second capital ship to be wiped out in this naval battle!

From the firing of the first shell to the sinking of the Invincible, it took only 5 minutes, and as it was besieged by four Bavarian-class battleships, the Prince of Wales also came to the end of life. Countless shells were on this poor warship. The body exploded, and the entire hull was hit like a honeycomb!

"At the last moment of the Prince of Wales, it was shrouded in flames all over its body. Even if we were close to 12 kilometers and adjusted the rangefinder magnification to 40 times, it was still difficult to observe its waterline. , We once gave the British a chance to surrender, but he refused, and was very unwilling to go. He wounded one of our destroyers with a secondary artillery, so in the end, we decided to perfect this opponent and send this guy with a hot shell. To the bottom of the sea!" said the fire control officer on the battleship Brunswick after the war.

In the end, no one knew how many shells were hit by the Prince of Wales, and no one knew how many rounds each warship hit the opponent. Lieutenant General Schmidt regarded this result as the result of the entire fleet, and the Prince of Wales left. He was very calm. There was no explosion like an ammunition storehouse. He just slowly sank to the bottom of the sea with flames all over his body. At the moment of capsizing, the bow was still raised high, and the bottom of the ship could even be seen on the approaching destroyer. Attached barnacles and other algae. It struggled and wailed like an unyielding giant, and finally sank to the bottom of the sea with unwillingness and regret.

"Let the destroyer search for the persons who fell into the water, our mission is completed." Lieutenant General Schmidt said.

At the same time, in another battlefield, Su Xiong is leading his fleet to pursue the Malaya and Tiger battlecruisers!

"The British have some good luck." Su Xiong frowned as he watched the storm brewing in the distance where the sea and the sky meet. The British had good luck. They happened to be close to a storm zone when they retreated. , Even if they are far apart, you can feel the violent storms in the storm zone. Obviously, if the British fleet enters this area before the German fleet catches up, then the hunt will fail for the Germans, so Su Xiong decided to make a final effort before the British fleet withdrew!

"The fleet disbands the formation, and each battleship finds its best attack position! Choose the battleship behind to attack!" Su Xiong ordered.

In this short pursuit, the German water bomb once again played an important role. A 350MM shell fired from 16 kilometers away entered the water at a distance of 15 meters from the Tiger, and rushed to the vulnerable Tiger. Under the underwater defense system, after ten seconds, a loud noise suddenly rang from the left string of the Tiger battlecruiser, and the steam from the breach along with the flames clearly told everyone where the gun hit! After this 350MM shell successfully destroyed 8 boilers, the speed of the Tiger battlecruiser dropped further, and eventually fell below 15 knots!

"Send the Malaya to tell them that our warship is no longer able to operate, let him leave."

"Tell all the crew to prepare to abandon the ship. Then use the international signal to tell the Germans of our decision." At the final moment, the battlecruiser Tiger also stopped struggling. The British on board signaled the abandonment, and the Germans also Quite tacitly stopped the attack, the opponent has actually surrendered, and the battle has ended.

"Your Excellency Lieutenant, what about the Malaya?" an officer asked.

"Forget it, let them go." Su Xiong thought for a while and said. However, at this moment, the telegram from Earl Spey made the naval battle a twist in the final stage! Just as Earl Spey was pursuing War exhaustion and Warrior, Thomas, who had already left, suddenly took the Queen Elizabeth and Fury and fired a carbine!

"Unexpectedly, at the end, the British would want to take a bite back. If it weren't for your Highness's order, I would never let you go." Looking at the two British fast battleships that appeared in the distance, Earl Spey sneered. Although it looks like 4V3, Piaget did not feel much pressure. Thomas just wanted to let the Germans retreat, and the intention to fight was not high. In the previous match, the Earl could clearly feel that the war exhaustion and the Warrior have lost their combat effectiveness. There are only three main guns left on the Warrior. , And the war exhaustion seems to have 5 main guns available, but the accuracy is a bit poor. Piaget concluded that the fire control system may have been damaged.

"Send the Tegerhof and Prince Eugen to deal with the two new warships, and the Joint Force will work harder to keep one!" Earl Spey ordered So, with the rumble of cannons, the 7 battleships of the two sides once again fought together!

However, in this relatively fair engagement, the German Navy felt the combat effectiveness of Britain’s latest Fury. Although the latter had been fighting for too long, it was obvious when the Prince Eugen fought against Fury. To the strength of the partner!

"Damn it, it didn't penetrate!" Count Luknar frowned dissatisfiedly. At a distance of 14 kilometers, the Prinz Eugen made another hit, and a 350mm shell accurately hit the rage. On the sidestring armor of the number, the angle of this shell hit was very good, almost directly on the British hull, and the effect of the heading angle was almost negligible. If it was the Queen’s 330MM vertical armor belt, it should be able to penetrate . Then after a flash, no shells penetrated the armor, which made Luknar quite uncomfortable.

"How many times is this already?" the earl said to the men next to him.

"In the previous battle, we hit at least 5 shells from the other side. Two of them hit the turret and there was no sign of penetration. The other two hits on the main armor belt of the hull and did not confirm that they bounced. There were 3 suspected hits, 2 of which also hit the main belt, and there was no sign of breakdown." The officer next to him said.
