Iron Germany

"Damn it! The 'Ki' sank, and now it's three to seven, and we are even more at a disadvantage!" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo's face was so gloomy that he could drip water. Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo almost couldn't accept it in just a few minutes from heaven to hell.

When they sank the battleship König of the German fleet, he once thought they were lucky and might be able to turn the situation around. However, the "Ki" was subsequently sunk, letting Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo know that they are still at a disadvantage now, and the disadvantage is becoming more and more obvious. If you want to defeat the German fleet, it may be even more difficult.

"General, the 'Tosa' is coming. The 'Mutsu', the 'Ise' and the 'Hyuga' are also speeding up. As long as they persist for a while, they will arrive. When the time comes, we will We can defeat the Germans!" said Colonel Fukushige.

Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo didn't say much, they have battleships coming quickly, but in the same way, isn't the German Navy also has reinforcements coming? Once the reinforcements of the German Navy arrive, they will have no chance of winning.

"Order all ships, gather firepower, and sink the first ship on the German battle line! This time, we must sink the opponent in the shortest possible time!" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo ordered.

"Hi, General." Colonel Fukushige nodded.

However, he knew it was very difficult. Now they can only gather the firepower of three battleships to attack the enemy, while the enemy can gather the firepower of seven battleships to attack them. They are completely at an absolute disadvantage.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The main guns of the three 'Ki-class' battleships were all firing crazily. One after another, the shells roared and smashed into the battleship "Great Kurführer" of the German fleet. Shells continued to fall around the battleship, splashing water jets into the sky. However, it seems dangerous. But in fact the hit rate is still not high. Fighting under the night sky, the line of sight is affected, and it is difficult to improve the hit rate.

"How far is the current combat distance?" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo then asked.

"General, the current engagement distance is 15 kilometers."

"Continue to close the distance! Close the distance to ten kilometers or even closer! This time, we are going to bayonet the Germans. Our 410mm main gun is enough to tear their warships apart at close range. Broken!" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo said with red eyes. He was obviously pushed to the limit, so he planned to do his best.

"Hey, General!" Colonel Fukudome Shigeru faithfully conveyed Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo's order.

It's just that shortening the combat distance is beneficial to the island fleet, but in the same way, the hit rate of the German fleet will also increase. After all, the German fleet is assisted by gun sight radar, and the closer the distance, the more accurate the data obtained.

Relying on its speed advantage, the island nation's fleet forcibly shortened the distance, making the battle even more tragic. The German fleet can only prevent the island fleet from occupying the T prefix as much as possible. Of course, because the German fleet still has seven capital ships, it is not afraid to fight the bayonet with the island fleet. They believe that even if they try their best, they will win in the end.

"The current combat distance has been shortened to less than 15 kilometers. If it is during the day, this is already the best strike distance. However, it is night, so the hit rate of the islanders is still not high. However, they still want to You need to get closer. Those guys really are crazy." Lieutenant General Theodor Burchardy said a little speechlessly.

The loss of a capital ship is nothing to the German fleet. They still firmly occupy the advantage of the battlefield.

"It's a pity that wars can't be won by being crazy! Our strength is much stronger than them. Therefore, even if we are crazy, we are not afraid of them!" Major General Felix said.

"Concentrate our firepower and try to sink another battleship of the Islanders in the shortest possible time! In that case, we will be able to secure the victory." Lieutenant General Theodore Burchardi said.

"General, don't worry, you will see it soon!" Major General Felix looked very confident.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The four "King-class" battleships and three "Derfflinger-class" battlecruisers of the German fleet violently poured shells on the "Owari" battleship. The shells fell like raindrops and hit the sea around the battleship 'Owari', splashing jets of water into the sky. Although the battleship 'Owari' is a huge battleship with a displacement of more than 40,000 tons, it is still like a small boat in a storm at this moment, and it may capsize at any time.

"boom!"

A 380mm artillery shell hit the battleship 'Owari', causing the superstructure of this huge battleship to start burning.

The firelight became the best guide, and the battleship 'Owari' at this moment was like a shell magnet, attracting a large number of shells.

Perhaps it was because the density of the shells was so high that the battleship 'Owari' was very likely to be hit. Almost every two rounds of salvo, a shell will hit the battleship 'Owari'. You must know that the main guns of the German fleet all use automatic loading machines, so that the main guns of the battleships can be increased to one shot per minute. Calculated in this way, the battleship 'Owari' will be hit by a shell every two minutes.

Despite the counterattack of the island nation's fleet, it hit the battleship "Great Kurführer" from time to time. However, in comparison, the shells that hit the battleship 'Grand Kurfürst' were much less than the shells that hit the battleship 'Owari'. So that under normal circumstances, if no miracle happened, the battleship 'Owari' would definitely be sunk before the battleship 'Great Kurführer'. After all, in terms of defense, the defense of the battleship 'Grand Kurfürst' is also superior.

The fierce battle lasted for 20 minutes, and the battleship 'Owari' had already fired a full 12 shells. The huge hull is already covered in cuts and bruises. Even, several injuries have posed a fatal threat.

There is no doubt that the battleship "Owari" has persisted until this time, and it is almost unable to persist.

Two minutes later, a 380mm artillery shell hit the 'Owari' again. This time, the shell penetrated the No. 5 main turret on the rear deck. What's more terrible is that at this moment, there are two 410mm shells and hundreds of kilograms of propellant in the barrel of the main turret. These shells and propellants all exploded. The violent explosion blasted a big hole in the stern of the battleship 'Owari'. Obviously, this battleship can no longer be kept.
