Jagged Germany

"Your Excellency, the speed of our battleship is too slow. The maximum speed of the 'Revenge-class' battleship is only a little over 23 knots. In this case, it is impossible to escape the pursuit of the Germans. Your Excellency, please go down." The battlecruiser "Tiger". Although the battlecruiser "Tiger" suffered some injuries during the battle, they were all minor injuries. The speed of the battleship was not affected in any way. Only the battlecruiser "Tiger" , it is possible to escape." Lieutenant General David Betty persuaded.

   The speed of the battlecruiser 'Tiger' is as high as 27.5 knots. Such a speed is no slower than that of a cruiser. At the same time, the powerful firepower also ensures its own safety. If you take the battlecruiser "Tiger", the possibility of getting rid of the pursuit of the German Navy is undoubtedly much greater.

Admiral John Jellicoe shook his head: "General Betty, we lost this battle. Someone must be responsible for this. I will stay and command the fleet to continue fighting. Go to the battlecruiser 'Tiger', Report the course of this battle to His Excellency the Prime Minister and His Excellency the Secretary of the Navy!"

"Your Excellency, the failure this time is not due to us, but because the enemy is too powerful. This is not your responsibility, and you don't have to take all the responsibility on yourself. I believe, Your Excellency the Prime Minister and His Excellency Churchill will definitely understand." Lieutenant General David Betty persuaded.

  However, John? General Jellicoe shook his head. He has made up his mind to take responsibility for the failure of this naval battle. Or rather, he wanted to be buried for the defeat of the Royal Navy. Therefore, he intends to fight to the end. In addition, he didn't want to go back to the UK to see the UK admit defeat, surrender to Germany, or the entire British Isles fell into the flames of war.

   Lieutenant General David Beatty saw that he could not convince General John Jellicoe, so he had no choice but to stop wasting his efforts. Compared with Admiral John Jellicoe, Lieutenant General David Beatty paid more attention to his own life. Therefore, he chose to board the battlecruiser 'Tiger' in a transportation boat. The battlecruiser 'Tiger' began to increase its speed, increasing its speed to 25 knots, and quickly headed towards the British mainland. Of course, it may depend on God's will whether he can return to the British mainland safely.

  The remaining warships of the British Navy desperately wanted to escape. The German Navy launched a pursuit of them, trying to keep all the warships of the British Navy.

  The warships of the German Navy all use a combination of fuel-fired boilers and steam turbines, which makes the warships of the German Navy generally have an advantage in speed. The 2nd battle line led by Lieutenant General Hipper and the battlecruiser formation led by Lieutenant General Spee are still working together to strangle the remaining eight American battleships led by Lieutenant General Martin. After all these American battleships are eliminated, they will start their pursuit. After all, you have to get rid of the trapped enemies at any time, and then plot other enemies. Only in this way can you be safe.

  Admiral Reinhardt Scheer led the first battle line to pursue the remaining six battleships of the British Navy. As for the French and Italians who fled first, no one paid attention to them for the time being. In this naval battle, the weakness of the French and Italians was also vividly displayed. Even if the four battleships of the French and the two battleships of the Italians escaped, they would not pose any threat to the German Navy. Anyway, this naval battle failed, and neither the French nor Italy would have any illusions about war anymore. This will undoubtedly make them make the final choice. Judging from the current situation, the possibility of France and Italy surrendering will be very high.

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

   Cannonballs exploded around the battleship "New York", and jets of water splashed up on the sea surface, just like whales spitting water.

  The three "Mackenson-class" battlecruisers of the German Navy are besieging it. Among the remaining American battleships on the battlefield, only the "New York-class" battleships are equipped with 356mm main guns, and the others are equipped with 305mm main guns. Therefore, these two "New York-class" battleships have also received the attention of the German Navy. Three "Makensen-class" battleships besieged the "New York" battleship, and three "Derfflinger-class" battleships besieged the "Texas" battleship to ensure that these two battleships were resolved.

  The other battleships and battlecruisers launched an attack on the remaining American battleships.

   "Damn it! How could it be like this?" Lieutenant General Martin seemed a little unacceptable to the sudden change in the battle situation. Although, the British Navy has gradually been at a disadvantage before. However, after the battlecruiser formation of the German Navy arrived, they were directly powerless to fight back. The powerful United Fleet fell apart immediately. This kind of failure came too fast and too suddenly.

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  The five twin-mounted 356mm main guns of the battleship 'New York' are also fighting back frantically. Heavy shells slammed hard at the battlecruiser "Mackensen", the flagship of the battlecruiser formation of the German Navy. However, the shells also fell into the sea, and no results were achieved.

   "Boom!"

  Suddenly, the battleship 'New York' shook violently, and Lieutenant General Martin's face suddenly turned pale.

   "Damn, we were hit!" Lieutenant General Martin couldn't help cursing.

  A 380mm artillery shell fired from the battleship "Mackensen" of the German Navy hit the side of the battleship "New York". Where it hits, it's just above the waterline.

  The defense of the "New York-class" battleship is much weaker than that of the "Nevada-class" battleship. The thickness of the waterline armor is only 305mm. This is like paper in front of the 380mm shells.

   After the shell tore through the armor, it exploded, directly blasting a big hole in the hull of the battleship 'New York'.

  However, the only thing to be thankful for is that the big hole is probably located above the waterline, tens of centimeters away from the waterline. If the place where the shell hit was moved down by a few tens of centimeters, it would have caused fatal damage to the battleship 'New York'.

  During the siege of the German navy, despite being at a disadvantage, the British navy still showed an extremely tenacious will to fight. They fought back frantically, like a trapped beast, wanting to pull on the German Navy's warship to back them up before they were sunk.
