Jagged Germany

  The "Nagato" battleship is the first powerful battleship built by the Japanese navy after the last World War with a main gun with a caliber of up to 410 mm. When it was completed, the displacement was as high as 33,000 tons. However, three years ago, this battleship underwent a large-scale modification, not only adding a large number of anti-aircraft weapons, but also further thickening the armor, causing the displacement to soar to more than 43,000 tons.

  The powerful defense combined with the powerful main gun made the battleship 'Nagato' a first-class capital ship in the world.

  However, the captain of the battleship 'Nagato', Colonel Tokunaga, is about to go crazy.

   Cannonballs are falling around the battleship 'Nagato', and the jet of water splashed from the sea almost drenches the entire battleship. Although they have been modified and their defense has been greatly enhanced, if they are hit by these large-caliber main gun shells, they will still be severely damaged or even sunk. What's worse, the enemy launched an attack, but they didn't even know where the enemy was. This feeling was about to drive him crazy.

   "Baga! Where did the Germans hide? Where are they?" Dazuo Tokunaga cursed.

   This is also to blame for the bad luck of Dazuo Tokunaga, who made their position at the forefront of the entire fleet, which made them the first attack target of the battleship formation of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet. Five "King-class" battleships and three "Derfflinger-class" battlecruisers are all focusing their fire on it. In each round of salvo, as many as 72 armor-piercing projectiles weighing one ton were dropped. This kind of firepower is undoubtedly very fierce.

"Master Tokunaga, calm down. The German battleship is very far away from them, and it is not so easy for them to hit us!" Lieutenant General Koga Mineichi, commander of the 3rd Battleship Team of the United Fleet, learned After the status of Lieutenant General Tokunaga, he deliberately used a radio call to remind him. As one of the four battleships of the 3rd Main Fleet, Lieutenant General Koga Mine didn't want the combat power of the battleship 'Nagato' to be damaged so quickly.

   "Hi, General!" Colonel Tokunagai quickly replied. At the same time, he gradually calmed down.

   "Sir, the flagship ordered us to form a battle line and prepare for battle!" said the staff officer.

   "Follow the flagship's order!" Colonel Tokunagai ordered. At the same time, he also breathed a sigh of relief. After forming the battle line, the battleship 'Nagato' should not be at the forefront. In this way, they may not be besieged by the Germans again. After all, in the main fleet, there are several battleships that are stronger than the battleship 'Nagato'.

   "Hi, sir!"

  Under the surprise attack of the German navy, the main fleet of the island navy was shocked. But then the main fleet of the United Fleet, which calmed down, immediately began to prepare for the battle.

   Under the command of Vice Admiral Yoshida Zengo, 12 capital ships will form a battle line. The four battleships of the 3rd Battleship Squadron were in front of the line of battle, the four battleships of the 1st Battleship Squadron were in the middle, and the four battleships of the 4th Battleship Squadron were in the rear.

  Although Lieutenant Admiral Koga Mineichi, the commander of the 3rd Battleship Squadron, had some complaints about this, he did not show it on the battlefield. After all, this is an urgent battle. If he dares to disobey the order, Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo will definitely not let him go. It might even be possible to use him as a scapegoat. Therefore, even if you are dissatisfied, you can only endure it temporarily.

  The battleship 'Nagato' began to turn, trying to join other capital ships and join the battle line. Their position should be the third in the battle line.

  However, it is a pity that the battleship "Nagato" seemed to have bad luck. It not only became the first attack target of the battleship formation of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet, but also became the first target to be hit.

  A 380mm shell hit the side of the battleship Nagato hard. The 305mm side armor was easily torn apart, leaving a big hole. A 140mm secondary gun was also destroyed, causing a raging fire.

   When the battleship 'Nagato' was being refitted, although its defenses were strengthened. However, the waterline armor and side armor have not been thickened, and are still 305mm. The deck armor and turret armor were thickened to be able to deal with attacks from enemy aircraft.

   "Quickly put out the fire!" Colonel Tokunagai shouted loudly.

  If the fires cannot be extinguished, this makes them the best targets under the night sky. However, at this moment, the capital ship of the German Navy is still 28 kilometers away, almost out of sight, and the soaring flames cannot be seen.

The radar waves emitted by the artillery sighting radar continuously scan the battleship 'Nagato', and then transmit the data to each main turret, so that these main turrets can be readjusted after each shot to ensure that the impact point is far from 'Nagato' The battleship HMS was getting closer and finally hit the target.

   Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo couldn't help feeling tense after witnessing the battleship 'Nagato' being hit.

"Damn it, why are those old warships of the Germans so powerful? Even the 'Ki-class' battleships are absolutely impossible to hit the target at such a distance. Those old battleships that have been in service for more than 20 years , but has such an ability, it is really unbelievable!" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo was completely shocked. This result was completely beyond his expectation. Originally, he thought that even in a confrontation with the main fleet of the German Navy, they could easily win. However, the current facts gave him a slap in the face.

   "Boom!"

  A violent explosion erupted on the battleship 'Nagato', and the flames almost enveloped the entire bow of the ship. A 380mm artillery shell penetrated the bow armor of the battleship "Nagato", exploded inside the battleship, and caused a fire at the same time.

   In the following, shells hit the battleship 'Nagato' almost every minute.

  Although these attacks were not fatal, they made the battleship 'Nagato' very embarrassed, and the entire superstructure even burned, as if it were a huge torch under the night sky. Many sailors on the battleship had already been killed during the battle. Almost everyone believed that if this continued, the battleship 'Nagato' would be sunk soon.

  The old warships of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet showed unbelievably powerful combat power at the beginning of this duel.
