Third Reich: I took over power

The reason why the Imperial Royal Navy has been able to dominate the world's oceans for hundreds of years is not only that they have been leading the development trend of the world's navies in terms of battleship design, but also more. The quality of their naval officers and soldiers has improved.

Even when faced with the battlecruiser Barbarossa of the Third Reich Navy, the two heavy cruisers and one light cruiser of the Royal Navy still acted very bravely and were not intimidated.

"boom! boom! boom!"

The main gun was roaring, and the shells roared and smashed into the opponent's warship.

The shells fell into the sea and splashed high water columns. The whole sea seemed to be boiling.

"boom!"

A 203 mm shell hit hard on the waterline armor of the battlecruiser Barbarossa.

But unfortunately, the 358 mm thick waterline armor easily withstood the shell. The shell It didn't penetrate the waterline armor at all, so naturally it couldn't cause any damage to the battlecruiser Barbarossa.

"Damn it! Are we really dealing with a battlecruiser of the Third Reich? How come a battlecruiser has such thick armor?"The captain of the Kent cursed.

You know, the armor of the battlecruisers of the Empire on which the sun never sets is very weak. Take the armor of the Brave-class battlecruiser as an example, the waterline armor is only 76 mm, and the deck The armor is only 38 mm, the front armor of the main turret is only 229 mm, and the front armor of the command tower is only 254 meters.

This is undoubtedly a typical case of thin skin and big stuff, let alone the large-caliber main gun of a battleship, even if it is a heavy The 203mm main gun of the cruiser and even the 150mm main gun of the light cruiser can also pose a fatal threat to it.

I have to admit that the sailors of the Royal Navy are of high quality and their artillery level is very good. At least the current third The Imperial Navy sailors are still unable to compare with them in this regard.

However, the Third Reich is at the forefront of the world in the manufacture of large-scale optical instruments. This makes the warships and tanks of the Third Reich world-class. The best sighting system and fire control system in the world.

This makes up for the lack of personal ability of the sailors to a large extent. In naval battles, it is even more comparable to the Royal Navy. The heavy cruiser Kent is also The main attack target of the battlecruiser Barbarossa. Three triple-mounted 50 times caliber 380mm guns, all aimed at the heavy cruiser Kent and fired.

After several rounds of test firings, the battlecruiser Barbarossa successfully formed a straddle formation.

The battlecruiser Barbarossa scored a hit in just the second round of concentrated fire.

A 380mm shell hit the rear deck of the heavy cruiser Kent hard. On.

Only 38 mm of deck armor was cut open at once.

The shell exploded inside the battleship, causing extreme damage to the heavy cruiser Kent. Even one of the drive shafts was blown off. causing the Kent's speed to drop immediately.

"Great, one more hit and the Kent is doomed! Colonel Fulkes smiled.

Sure enough, two minutes later, the battlecruiser Barbasa hit the heavy cruiser Kent again.

In this round of salvo, two 380mm shells were fired. A hit.

A shell hit the waterline armor of the Kent, easily penetrated the waterline armor, and blasted a big hole, so that seawater poured into the ship crazily.

Another shell , hit the command tower of the Kent. Although the armor of the command tower was 254 mm thick, it was still unable to withstand the 380-meter shell. The gun exploded inside the command tower, killing all the officers, including the captain.

This This caused the Kent to fall into command chaos, and also greatly affected the damage control, so that it was not possible to save the battleship with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons in time.

Soon, the Kent heavy cruiser capsized due to excessive water intrusion on the sea

"Well done, next target, the heavy cruiser Kangaroo Country!"Colonel Fulkes cheered loudly.

Although during this process, the battlecruiser Barbarossa also suffered a lot of artillery shells, including 203 mm shells and 152 mm shells. But for the rough and thick Barbarossa As far as the battlecruiser is concerned, it did not cause much substantial damage.

When the three triple-mounted 50 times caliber 380 mm main guns of the battlecruiser Barbarossa turned to fire on the heavy cruiser Kangaroo Country, this ship The heavy cruiser soon followed in the footsteps of the Kent.

In just fifteen minutes of fighting, the heavy cruiser Kangaroo Country took five 80mm shells. For a heavy cruiser with a displacement of only 10,000 tons, It was undoubtedly fatal.

The deadliest shell hit the No. 1 main battery turret on the front deck of the heavy cruiser Kangaroo Country. The shell penetrated the gun mount and then cut into the ammunition magazine. After the explosion, it detonated the ammunition magazine Those 203mm artillery shells stored inside were so powerful that they directly blew the entire front half of the heavy cruiser Kangaroo Country to pieces. In less than two minutes, the battleship sank into the sea.

"Oh, God! The Kent and Kangaroo Country were both finished. Let the Liverpool and Manchester and the two destroyers retreat immediately!"Rear Admiral Roderick gave the order with a livid face.

The battlecruiser Barbarossa showed off its might and easily eliminated their two heavy cruisers. If the fight continues, it may not take long. Then The two light cruisers will also be killed. This is already a huge loss for them.

After receiving the retreat order, the Liverpool and the Manchester immediately turned to escape. At this moment, the Manchester was fighting with the Cassel light cruiser. During the battle with the cruiser, it also took some 150mm shells and suffered serious injuries.

"Sir, the Royal Navy has escaped, shall we pursue it?"Lieutenant Colonel Sanger looked a little regretful.

"No, we have taken advantage of the two Royal Navy heavy cruisers. Colonel Fulkes shook his head.

"However, we can do something big!"A smile suddenly appeared on Colonel Fulkes' face.

"Do something big?"Lieutenant Colonel Sanger was a little confused.

"The Schlieffen and Wallenstein were not far away. After nightfall, a seaplane was sent to send a telegram asking them to join us. At dawn tomorrow, we may be able to gather three battlecruisers to attack the three Valiant-class battlecruisers of the Royal Navy and eat them in one bite!"Colonel Fulkes said.

Lieutenant Colonel Sanger's eyes suddenly lit up._Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
