Iron Germany
Chapter 451 Burning and sinking (seeking a monthly ticket)
"Your Excellency, the battleship 'Ramilis' requests to retreat again!" On the battleship 'Revenge', the flagship of the Royal Navy, a staff officer reported to Admiral John Jellicoe.
Both Admiral John Jellicoe and Lieutenant General David Beatty have seen the tragedy of the battleship Ramiris. After being severely beaten by the battleship "Saxony" of the German Navy, the battleship "Ramilis" has been severely damaged. Of the only four dual-mounted 381mm main guns, only two can continue to fire. In addition, after the chimney was blown off, the battleship could no longer discharge the thick smoke, which also had a great impact on the speed of the battleship.
"Damn, how did this happen? What are the 'Determination' and the 'Sovereign' doing? Are they just watching the Germans attack the 'Ramilis'?" Lieutenant General David Betty scolded.
Of course, Lieutenant General David Betty said something like this, it is undoubtedly a bit wronged. In the battle just now, the battleship 'Determination' and the battleship 'Monarchy' also did their best. It's just that they are not as brave as the battleship 'Saxon', and they can easily hit the target.
The officers on the bridge all looked at Admiral John Jellicoe, as if they were waiting to see what choice he would make at this time.
Admiral John Jellicoe also hesitated.
"Let the battleship 'Ramilis' continue to fight, and do not retreat without an order." Admiral John Jellicoe ordered.
"Yes, General. However, isn't this too cruel for the battleship Ramiris?" Lieutenant General David Beatty couldn't help asking. After all, under such circumstances, Admiral John Jellicoe clearly wanted the battleship Ramiris to die! The lives of thousands of officers and soldiers of the Royal Navy on the battleship were not taken seriously.
"At the same time, give orders to the battleship 'Resolution' and the battleship 'Sovereign', requiring them to seize this opportunity to sink the German battleship!" Admiral John Jellicoe immediately issued the second order command.
Everyone immediately understood what Admiral John Jellicoe meant. What he meant was obvious, that is, even if the battleship 'Ramilis' died, it would be worthwhile to die. If you can seize this opportunity and sink the German battleship in one fell swoop, even if the battleship 'Ramilis' is sunk, it will undoubtedly be worth it.
However, such an order is a bit too cruel. Of course, from the perspective of Admiral John Jellicoe, there was no other way. Who made the performance of the German Navy so perverted that they were completely suppressed?
After Admiral John Jellicoe's order was issued, the officers and soldiers of the Royal Navy on the battleship 'Ramilis', no matter how dissatisfied they were, could only obey the order and stood on the battle line stubbornly, resisting Those shells fired by the battleship 'Sachsen' of the German Navy. But the battleship 'Resolution' and the battleship 'Sovereign' were unwilling to waste the opportunity that the battleship 'Ramilis' had won for them, so they went all out and fired at the battleship 'Saxon' at the maximum rate of fire. shooting.
However, they seem to have forgotten that the battleships "Baden" and "Württemberg" of the German Navy can also open fire on the battleships "Resolution" and "Sovereign" of the British Navy without any interference. The situation is still very unfavorable to the British Navy.
"Let all the turrets aim at one point. We have already severely damaged the British battleship. With a few more hits, we can send him to the bottom of the sea!" In the command tower of the battleship 'Saxon', Gonix Lonha Colonel Te gave the order excitedly.
For Colonel Gonix Longhardt and all the members of the battleship 'Saxon', as long as they can sink the battleship 'Ramilis', their adventure will undoubtedly be regarded as the greatest harvest.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The three triple-mounted 380mm main guns on the battleship 'Saxon' once again roared. Nine shells slammed into the battleship 'Ramilis' fiercely.
In this round of salvo, the battleship "Saxon" scored another hit. A 380mm artillery shell directly hit the conning tower of the battleship 'Ramilis'. Although it was protected by a 330mm thick armor, it still failed to withstand the 380mm shells, and the armor was directly torn apart.
The shell exploded inside the conning tower, killing all the officers including the captain. In the entire command tower, a piece of flesh and blood flew everywhere, as if they had entered Shura Hell.
The command organization was taken away in one pot, making the situation of the battleship 'Ramilis' even worse. After losing command, the battleship was in chaos.
And the battleship 'Saxon' seized this opportunity and continued to violently shell the battleship 'Ramilis'.
In the next few salvos, shells hit the battleship 'Ramilis' almost every time. Under such circumstances, even if the battleship "Ramilis" is a battleship with a full load displacement of more than 31,000 tons and a relatively weak defense, it can't resist it!
There were so many shots that the entire battleship began to burn. At the same time, the port side was also seriously flooded, and the hull had already begun to pour. In order to prevent the hull from capsizing and restore the balance of the hull, the acting captain issued an order to inject water to the starboard side, hoping to keep the battleship in this way.
But unfortunately, this not only failed to save the battleship 'Ramilis', but pushed it into the abyss of sinking.
After a large amount of seawater was injected into the hull, the buoyancy of the battleship 'Ramilis' was seriously insufficient, and the hull had already begun to sink. Until this time, the officers and soldiers of the British Royal Navy on the battleship 'Ramilis' realized the problem.
But at this time, they were already powerless to prevent the sinking of the battleship.
As a last resort, the acting captain immediately gave the order to abandon the ship. At this time, they had no time to consult Admiral John Jellicoe for advice.
But even so, hundreds of people still failed to evacuate the battleship 'Ramilis' in time, and sank into the icy North Sea together with the burning battleship.
The battleship 'Ramilis' was sunk, which directly caused the loss of one of the battleships that the Royal Navy relied on most. This undoubtedly made the situation of the Royal Navy even more difficult.
