Iron Germany
Chapter 606 Retreat
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The rumble of guns on the sea was like thunder. The shells kept falling into the sea, and the violent explosions splashed water jets into the sky, as if the sea area had already boiled.
The fierce battle between the German fleet and the British fleet has reached a climax. The attacks from both sides were very violent. It can be said that life and death have been gambled.
The British navy naturally wanted to defeat the German navy in order to get revenge, and then reverse the situation of this war so that Britain won, or it would not lose so badly. The German Navy also wanted to defend the fruits of victory that were about to be obtained, and did not want this war to fall short.
In the northwest of the island of Ireland, a huge fleet is sailing southwest. This fleet is very large in scale, with more than 20 capital ships. Their nationalities can be easily distinguished from the flags hoisted by these warships. These warships all came from the kingdoms of Great Britain, France and Italy.
The flagship is the battleship HMS Revenge of the British Navy. Although it was almost sunk in the last decisive battle with the German Navy. But with better luck, he escaped the pursuit of the German navy and returned to Scapa Flow. Afterwards, the British Navy mobilized a large amount of resources and worked overtime for repairs. Finally, at the beginning of this decisive battle, let it recover its combat effectiveness.
Admiral John Jellicoe, Lieutenant General David Beatty, Admiral Lame and Admiral Paul were all on the bridge of the battleship 'Revenge'. They are all at the top of the United Fleet. In order to coordinate and command the fleet, both sides did their best this time.
"General Martin and the Germans have already fought each other. With their strength, it shouldn't be a problem to eliminate the three German battlecruisers. I think the Germans should be in a hurry at this time. A large number of battleships are on their way. We can take advantage of this opportunity to eat up the German main fleet bit by bit, and then defeat the Germans in the final decisive battle!" Admiral John Jellicoe said with a smile. It was as if everything was already under his control.
"General Martin and the others have 12 battleships, and it is no problem to deal with the three German battlecruisers. If we can also eliminate the remaining nine German battlecruisers in the ensuing battle .Then, we will definitely win this battle!" Admiral Lame said excitedly.
As a French admiral, France is now on the verge of life and death. If the Combined Fleet can defeat the German Navy, it will be able to bring France back from the brink of death.
"General Martin's chances of winning are indeed very high. However, if the Germans escape, it may not be easy to sink them." Lieutenant General David Betty said with some concern. After all, the speed of a battlecruiser is much faster than that of a battleship.
Admiral John Jellicoe nodded: "General Martin will definitely outflank. I hope he can win! May God bless the Allies!"
"God bless the Allies!" Everyone prayed to God.
The fierce battle is still going on, and the new tactics adopted by the German Navy seem to have worked wonders.
The battlecruiser 'Leopold' successfully hit the battleship 'Arkansas' of the British fleet. The "Arkansas" battleship is the second ship of the "Wyoming class" battleship, and its defense is the same as that of the "Wyoming". Its armor is too weak, and it cannot withstand the 305mm shells fired by the main gun of fifty times the caliber.
The shell hit the bow of the battleship 'Arkansas' and knocked off the No. 2 main turret. At the same time, the No. 2 main turret that was lifted off hit the No. 1 main turret, which severely damaged the No. 1 main turret and could no longer fire. Such a loss directly cost the battleship 'Arkansas' half of its firepower.
"Damn it!" Lieutenant General Martin couldn't help cursing secretly when he saw such a situation. They obviously had an absolute advantage, and they beat the battleship "Blücher" of the German Navy into danger. But the German navy seems to have received special favor from God. The shells that kept falling could never hit, as if they were frying fish, wasting these shells in vain.
"God! Why can't you hit the German warship?" Lieutenant General Martin was very anxious.
The officers were silent, and they didn't know how to explain to Lieutenant General Martin.
"Where is the 2nd Battleship Squadron?" Lieutenant General Martin asked.
Since it has been too late to hit the battleships of the German Navy, Lieutenant General Martin can only pin his hopes on the second battleship squadron. If the six battleships of the 2nd Battleship Division can join the battlefield, this will give them a greater advantage. Lieutenant General Martin believed that by that time, they would be able to sink all three of the German Navy's battlecruisers.
"General, the second battleship detachment is about to arrive. There are at most ten minutes before they can join the battle."
"Very well, send a telegram to the 2nd Battleship Squadron and ask them to seize the T prefix. Then, fire me hard, and make sure to sink the German battlecruisers!" Lieutenant General Martin ordered.
"Yes, General."
The battlecruiser "Blücher" of the German Navy, this battlecruiser has become a shell magnet. The four battleships of the British fleet fired wildly at it. A large number of falling shells may hit at any time. This made the German naval officers and soldiers on the battleship very nervous.
"General, General Spee told them that he is leading the main force of the break-off fleet to go south quickly, and asked us to go north immediately to join him." An officer reported.
Rear Admiral Lübeck hesitated for a moment, then gave an order to speed up and break away from contact with the British fleet.
"Damn the British, after we join the main force, we will settle accounts with them! Order the fleet to advance at full speed and prepare to evacuate!" Major General Lübeck ordered.
If they continue to fight hard, their chances of winning are really slim. At that time, if you are lucky, you may be able to sink one or two warships in the British fleet. But at the same time, the three of their battlecruisers may all have to be silent here. In that case, it would be too uneconomical. When they merge with the main force of the break-off fleet and assemble 12 battlecruisers, they will have enough strength to confront the British fleet, and even gain an advantage. After all, the 'Blücher-class' battlecruiser is the first of the twelve battlecruisers of the German Navy's four tiers, and it is also the tier with the worst comprehensive combat power. Level one tough.
