Jagged Germany

  British Navy's 2nd Battleship Squadron, Rear Admiral Benjamin is watching the sinking of the battleship 'Barham' in a daze. It is not easy for this battleship to persist until now.

  During the battle just now, the battleship 'Barham' was hit again. A 380mm artillery shell and a 343mm artillery shell hit the 'Barham' at the same time.

  A shell hit the stern of the ship, blowing up the steering gear of the battleship 'Barham' and causing the battleship to be seriously flooded. Another shell tore through the underwater armor of the battleship 'Barham'. Although, the underwater armor with a thickness of 330mm is very strong. However, the 380mm shell still tore it apart directly. After the shell exploded, a big hole was blown directly below the waterline of the battleship 'Barham'. Sea water poured into the battleship 'Barham' frantically, and the damage control personnel didn't even have a chance to plug the loophole. Even when they tried to close the watertight door, they failed.

  In the end, the battleship 'Barham' capsized on the sea due to excessive water intake. Then, the entire hull quickly sank into the sea.

   "Damn it, the 'Barham' was sunk, which one is it going to be next? Is it the 'Malayan', or our flagship 'Queen Elizabeth'?" Rear Admiral Benjamin thought secretly. For victory, he has almost completely lost confidence.

  At this time, the main fleet of the British Navy is heading south quickly. Hundreds of warships are laid out on the sea, looking mighty and majestic.

   However, on the battleship 'Revenge', Admiral John Jellicoe, commander of the British Navy's Grand Fleet, kept frowning.

   "General, General Betty reports that the 'Queen Mary' has been sunk." A communications officer reported.

   "I see!" Admiral John Jellicoe replied blankly.

  In the entire command tower, the atmosphere was about to freeze. Once again the Royal Navy lost a battlecruiser, which left them with just two. Lieutenant General David Beatty only relied on the remaining two battlecruisers, and it was undoubtedly very, very difficult to resist the siege of the six German battlecruisers. Maybe, soon they will hear bad news again.

   Sure enough, a few minutes later, the communications officer went on to report the military situation to General John Jellicoe.

   "General, General Benjamin reports that the battleship 'Barham' was sunk."

  Admiral John Jellicoe's face at this moment is so gloomy that it seems that water can drip out. Once again, they lost a battlecruiser and a battleship, making them lose a full five capital ships before confronting the main force of the German navy. This is already a very powerful force for the Royal Navy.

  The officers in the command tower are even more afraid to vent their anger now, for fear of offending Admiral John Jellicoe.

   "How long will it take us to get to the battlefield?" Admiral John Jellicoe asked.

   "General, according to the current speed, we will arrive at the battlefield in about half an hour." A staff officer reported.

   "Half an hour? Order the ships and prepare for battle. After arriving on the battlefield, launch an attack immediately. This time, we must make the Germans pay for their blood!" Admiral John Jellicoe ordered.

  The heavy loss made him almost fall into madness. The only thing he thought about was to sink the warships of the German Navy and avenge those warships that were sunk.

   However, John? General Jellicoe also know that it is very difficult.

   On the battlefield, the fierce battle is still going on. The six battleships of the German Navy's 1st Battlecruiser Squadron besieged the remaining two battlecruisers of the British Navy's Battlecruiser Squadron.

   Shells continued to fall around the battlecruiser 'Tiger' and the battlecruiser 'Royal Princess', splashing jets of water into the sky. The water splashed down, even soaking the deck of the battleship.

  The British sailors on the battleship were even more nervous. Many people even turned pale with fright. There is no doubt that they have a very good understanding of the current situation. I also know that if the battle goes wrong and they don't pay attention, they may follow in the footsteps of those sunk warships.

   "Boom!"

  Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering explosion.

  I saw the battlecruiser 'Royal Princess' completely shrouded in flames and gunpowder smoke.

   "What's going on?" David? Betty Lieutenant General asked.

   "General, the main turret of the 'Royal Princess' was hit. It seems that the ammunition depot was detonated." An officer reported with a pale face.

   Lieutenant General David Betty closed his eyes in pain. After suffering such a blow, it didn't take much thinking to know that the battlecruiser 'Royal Princess' was hopeless.

   Indeed, the battlecruiser 'Royal Princess', whose bow was almost blown to pieces, sank into the sea in less than two minutes.

  This left the British Navy's battlecruiser unit with only one battlecruiser left. Moreover, it was still under the siege of the battlecruiser detachment of the German Navy. How long they can persist depends on God's will.

   "Good job! Besiege the remaining British battlecruiser 'Tiger' and sink all their battlecruisers!" Lieutenant General Hipper excitedly ordered.

  If all the battlecruisers of the British Navy can be destroyed, this is also a huge victory.

   It's just that Lieutenant General Hipper's goal has not been achieved. Because, just as the battlecruiser "Tiger" was under siege and was at stake, the main fleet of the British Navy arrived.

   "Fire!"

   Following Admiral John Jellicoe's order, the six 'Revenge Class' battleships immediately launched shelling.

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

   A series of 381mm artillery shells, accompanied by a roaring roar, slammed into the battleships of the German Navy's 1st Battlecruiser Squadron under the angry eyes of the British naval officers and soldiers.

   Lieutenant General Hipper hesitated a little, but gave the order to retreat. After all, preserving one's own strength is the most important thing. He didn't want to take his battleship into it just to sink the battlecruiser 'Tiger'. In that case, it would be too uneconomical.

"Inform Your Excellency the Commander and the 2nd Battlecruiser Squadron that the main force of the British has appeared. Especially General Spee, let them seize the opportunity to kill the British 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleship." Hipper The lieutenant general ordered.
