Jagged Germany

Chapter 1371: destroy

  Now Europe is still the center of the world. It is not only the center of economy and culture, but also the center of science and technology. Although the last world war caused blood to flow across the European continent, countless people died in the war, and countless cities were destroyed.

  However, after Germany dominated the entire European continent, it was able to integrate the strength of the European continent. The outstanding talents of the mainland are all playing for Germany. This has enabled Germany's technological strength to be further improved. Especially after more than 20 years of development, German technology has developed by leaps and bounds. In particular, the existence of the cheating device of the German Emperor Qin Tian saved the German scientists from taking a lot of detours. Especially in the field of military industry, it has far surpassed other countries.

  Although the island country began to make continuous progress after the Meiji Restoration. However, because of their poor background, they were unable to catch up with Europe even after decades of hard work. And this is also well reflected in the war.

  Now, facing the German fleet, the island nation's fleet has a deep sense of powerlessness. It's not that they are greedy for life and afraid of death, or that their quality is worse than that of the German Navy. It is really lost in other places!

"Order the fleet to turn further and close the distance with the Germans! From a long distance, it is impossible for us to hit them. If we compete with them for the long-range hit rate, there is only a dead end. Only continue to close the distance, Only by bayoneting the Germans will we be able to win!" Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro ordered.

   "Hi, Your Excellency Commander!" Major General Suzuki Yoshio replied.

   "In addition, let our lightning strike formation be prepared. After the distance is shortened, if the Germans are not prepared, then launch a lightning strike!" Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro said viciously.

   "Hi, Your Excellency Commander." Major General Suzuki Yoshio nodded.

  Although, in terms of capital ships, they are not the opponents of the German fleet due to the advanced technological strength of the German Navy. However, in other aspects, the navy of the island country also has considerable advantages. If you are lucky, you also have the chance to come back.

  At least, the generals of the island navy are still very confident in their spear torpedoes. Among the capital ships equipped by countries around the world, none of them can withstand the spear torpedo. Even if it is a "Yamato-class" battleship, once it is hit by a spear torpedo, it will not die.

  The 533mm heavy-duty torpedoes equipped by European and American countries have a warhead charge of only 370 kg. The charge of the spear torpedo warhead is as high as 490 kg. Moreover, this is only the Type 93 torpedo Type 1. And the Type 93 torpedo 2 they are developing, by shortening the voyage and increasing the charge, the charge of the warhead has been increased to a frantic 780 kg. Once it hits the target, the consequences will be even more unimaginable.

  In order to reverse the situation and regain the disadvantage. The island fleet kept turning, trying to shorten the distance from the German fleet. However, every move of the island nation's fleet was completely seen by the German fleet through radar. The several capital ships of the German fleet are all battlecruisers with extremely high speeds. Except for the two "Kii-class" battleships of the island nation fleet, which have a speed advantage when facing the two "Derfflinger-class" battlecruisers of the German fleet, the other two battleships are completely at a disadvantage.

   After all, the speed of the fleet depends on the slowest warship in the fleet.

  The German fleet is also speeding up and changing its course in a targeted manner at any time. This made the German fleet not necessarily able to seize a very favorable combat position, but it was able to control the combat distance to more than 15 kilometers. It is simply impossible for the island fleet to shorten the combat distance.

   Time passed little by little, and the battle became more intense. The artillerymen on both sides are trying their best to fire, trying to sink the enemy's warship. However, the difficulty of sinking a huge capital ship in a night battle is undoubtedly conceivable.

   "Boom!"

   At 2:08, the German fleet hit the battleship 'Suruga' again. A 380mm artillery shell fired from the battlecruiser "Von der Tann" slammed into the midship of the battleship "Suruga".

   This shell penetrated the armor of the superstructure of the battleship before it exploded. Not only did it blow up the superstructure of the battleship 'Suruga' to pieces, it also caused a raging fire.

   "Very good, this time the warship of the Minister of the Islands must be ordered!" Lieutenant General Otto Schneewendt ordered.

   Almost an hour has passed since the battle broke out. Although they have hit the enemy ship many times, they have never been able to sink it. This made the officers and soldiers of the German fleet almost lose confidence.

  The fire blazed on the battleship 'Suruga', illuminating the entire hull. Even if the German fleet is fifteen kilometers apart, they can clearly see them. This also further improved the hit rate of the German fleet.

  Several battlecruisers of the German fleet are seizing this opportunity, frantically firing at the battleship 'Suruga', trying to sink it.

  For a while, the sound of cannons rumbled on the sea, and bullets rained down. Several warships of the German army opened fire crazily, smashing heavy shells one by one towards the battleship 'Suruga' fiercely.

   Shells fell like raindrops around the battleship 'Suruga', splashing high water columns.

   Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro's face was frighteningly dark. Being hit one after another made him feel very bad. He even had a premonition that the battleship 'Suruga' might not be able to escape this time.

   "Your Excellency, Commander, do we want to transfer to the battleship 'Omi' behind?" Rear Admiral Suzuki Yoshio asked in a low voice. Obviously, Major General Suzuki Yoshio also felt that the battleship 'Suruga' might not last long.

   Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro gave Major General Suzuki Yoshio a vicious look.

   "Are you asking me to be a coward who runs away? Even if I get sunk, I will never run away!" Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro said righteously.

   "Hi, Your Excellency, Commander!" Major General Suzuki Yoshio had no choice but to reply.

   "Boom! Boom!"

  Suddenly, two consecutive violent explosions sounded on the battleship 'Suruga'.

  The complexions of Lieutenant General Takasu Shiro and Major General Suzuki Yoshio suddenly turned pale. From the vibration of the hull just now, they could clearly feel that the battleship 'Suruga' might really be destroyed this time.
