Chapter 481: Bad omen

In fact, the battle in naval battles depends on technology and luck.
You must know that the sea was originally swaying. Under the current waves, the ship swayed more severely. The slightest error was thousands of miles. The naval gun shot the shells more than ten nautical miles away, even if it was accurate, the moment the gun popped out of the chamber, If the ship swayed, it must have gone wrong.
Until later generations, with the bistable system, no matter how the warship shakes, the muzzle will never move, and the entire turret will be stable. This will work. Now there is no such method.
Therefore, although the opponent is aiming at himself, he may not be able to hit!
Can you retreat at this time? Of course not! The captain of the Cornwall gritted his teeth and gave orders to his men: "Ready to shoot!"
The Cornwall is just an ordinary cruiser with weak armor, but its firepower is not weak. It has 8 MkⅧ 203 mm guns, which are divided into 4 MkI twin turrets. The maximum range exceeds 28 kilometers.
If you deal with a battleship, its firepower may not be fierce enough to tear the opponent's turret armor, but it is absolutely no problem with the Deutsche, because the Deutsche is also weak in armor protection.
The Cornwall’s naval gun was also spinning fast, but before they turned around, they saw the opponent’s gun and roared again!
From the outside, it is a large number of British warships chasing and beating a German warship. However, the German warship is not at a disadvantage. Now it is the German warship attacking!
The 283 mm naval gun on the Deutsche Bahn has a very fast rate of fire, reaching 3 rounds per minute!
After all, Germany was a defeated country in World War I. Even in World War I, the German Navy did not surpass Britain in number, and for a long time after World War I, Germany did not have a single warship.
Germany cannot make up for the difference in quantity. Therefore, it can only adopt another method. The quantity is not enough and the quality is small. A German warship can fight several British warships!
Now, the German Navy is relying on the performance of its naval guns to compete with the British Navy.
On heads-up, it is a Deutsche, single-handedly against the main force of the British fleet, and on the group frame, it is a group of British navy fighting a Deutsche.
The Deutsche Vessel, the more courageous the war!
After the first hit, before the British fleet had reacted, the second salvo of the Deutsche Vessel had already begun!
"Boom, boom!" The two naval guns did not fire synchronously. The tails were a little slower. The six 283mm naval guns once again sent German revenge to the British navy!
"Zuo Man Ruo!" The captain of the Cornwall shouted loudly. There is no artillery radar yet, and he relies solely on personal experience to avoid the enemy's attack.
The Cornwall’s 10,000-ton hull formed an arc on the sea. At this time, a wave came, and the wave even covered the capital of the ship. If it happened to be a huge wave coming from the right. If it does, the hull can even be overthrown.
This arc was carried out quite successfully. You can see the opponent's shells passing over your head, falling to the position you just turned, splashing into the water, and smashing a few meters of water.
"Crack!" At this moment, there was a loud noise above the head, and an armor-piercing projectile passed over the mast and directly broke the mast.
Above the mast, the Pozi navy flag, which has been hunting in the wind, fell down along with the broken mast, hit the bridge below, and floated in front of everyone.
The falling of the flag is definitely a bad omen. This is a tradition of maritime powers for hundreds of years.
On the bridge of the Cornwall, everyone's expressions changed.
"Boom!" At this moment, there was a sudden violent explosion from the bottom of the Cornwall. Following the explosion, the entire hull shook tremendously.
"Torpedo, it's a torpedo, there is a German submarine near us!" the captain yelled.
He guessed completely correct, but unfortunately it was too late.
If it is normal, it may be nothing to get caught with a torpedo, just carry it off, but now it is in a big storm! The structure of the hull is damaged, and it will be completely destroyed in the beating of the waves!
He guessed perfectly well.
With the sound of the explosion, the ship made a creaking sound, and then, a terrifying scream came from the lower level.
"No, our hull is split!"
"Hurry up, let's not sink with the ship!"
One torpedo, the Cornwall was abolished. In addition to the cause of the waves, it was also related to the torpedo. This is the most advanced torpedo in Germany, the most powerful torpedo, the G7U hydrogen peroxide torpedo code-named T11!
The torpedo was launched by the U-47 submarine. After it separated from the Deutsche Bahn, it continued to operate in this area. When the British main fleet was discovered, Prien was ecstatic.
As a submarine soldier, killing the enemy's warship is their most hopeful record. In contrast, hitting civilian ships is really boring.
Prien didn't do it right away. After all, the British Navy had too many warships and he wanted to do it secretly, like now.
When the artillery shells of the naval gun flew by, the hydrogen peroxide torpedo was also killed at a high speed of 48 knots ~EbookFREE.me~, and successfully killed the Cornwall. From the outside, Cornwall The number was destroyed by the Deutsche Bahn.
His submarine has not yet been exposed, as long as it is not exposed, there is the possibility of continuing to attack the enemy.
This, of course, did not scare the British Navy. They were also well-trained. Just after the second salvo of the Deutsche Bahn, the counterattack from the British Navy had arrived.
Of course, the British fleet would not watch the Deutsche flank continue to show off, they also opened fire quickly!
"boom!"
The Queen Elizabeth and Barham of the Queen Elizabeth class, as well as the Nelson of the Nelson class, and the R-class battleship "Sovereign" have completed the reloading of their main guns, aimed at them, and started a salvo.
"Nelson"’s main gun is 406 mm, while the other ships are 381 mm main guns. However, because they are pursuing, only the main gun at the bow can be used.
Even so, the firepower is extremely powerful, dozens of large-caliber naval gun shells flew to the Deutsche Deutsche, if only one of the Deutsche Deutsche was caught, it would not die or be seriously injured.
"Target, starboard, Southampton-class light cruiser!" On the bridge, Colonel Stanger was not afraid of the flying artillery shells, and he continued to give combat orders.
Pick up those that can be beaten first!
