Jagged Germany

  Rear Admiral Gentaro Yamashita left the battlefield on the destroyer Hayate. In order to escape for their lives, the speed of the destroyer 'Hailstorm' was increased to 30 knots. The German fleet didn't care about the escape of a destroyer of the island navy, so naturally it didn't know that the chief of staff of the United Fleet had escaped.

  The German expeditionary fleet is more concerned about getting rid of all these warships of the island navy. Only in this way can they win a complete victory.

   "General, the three 'King Kong-class' battlecruisers of the islanders can't escape, and we will win this time!" Major General Maofu smiled.

   "Yes! Good job. Seize this opportunity and sink these three 'King Kong-class' battlecruisers." Lieutenant General Spee ordered.

   "Yes, General. Of course, such a good opportunity cannot be let go." Major General Maofu replied.

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  The eight battlecruisers of the German Expeditionary Fleet continued to fire, smashing the dense rain of bullets at the three "King Kong-class" battlecruisers of the island navy. The three 'King Kong-class' battlecruisers have become their priority targets.

   "Boom!"

  A shell fired by the battlecruiser 'Mackenson' hit the battlecruiser 'King Kong'. This shell hit the side of the battlecruiser 'King Kong' and blew up a 152mm secondary gun. If the shell moved down a few meters, it would be enough to cause greater damage to the battlecruiser 'King Kong'.

   Immediately afterwards, the battlecruiser 'Frederick Karl' also hit the battlecruiser 'King Kong'. A 380mm artillery shell hit the No. 4 main turret on the rear deck of the battlecruiser 'King Kong'. The armor of the main turret of the 'King Kong-class' battleship is only 230 mm. Such armor is undoubtedly very fragile. Especially in front of the large-caliber naval guns of the battlecruisers of the German Navy, it was no different from paper, and was easily torn apart.

  After the shell penetrated the turret armor, it exploded inside the turret. The huge power overturned the entire turret.

  At the same time, the No. 3 main turret was also involved, making the main turret lose its ability to turn. This immediately caused the battlecruiser 'King Kong' to lose half of its firepower. This is undoubtedly very deadly in a fierce battle.

   Fortunately, the shells in the barrel have been fired at this moment, and the gun has not yet been lifted up. Otherwise, it would be enough to cause more damage to the battlecruiser 'King Kong'.

  After losing the ability to counterattack, the battlecruiser "King Kong" has almost become a lamb to be slaughtered, and was left to be ravaged by the three "Makensen-class" battlecruisers of the German Navy.

  Two minutes later, the battlecruiser 'Mackenson' hit the battlecruiser 'King Kong' again. This time, two shells scored a hit.

  A shell blew a large hole in the front deck of the battlecruiser "King Kong" and caused a fire at the same time.

  Another shell hit the side of the battlecruiser 'King Kong', opening a big hole near the waterline. The battlecruiser 'King Kong' has only 203 mm of waterline armor, which is completely indistinguishable from paper.

  The damage control personnel on the battlecruiser 'King Kong' immediately plugged the leak. But unfortunately, too much seawater poured into the battleship. In addition, the loophole is too big to be blocked at all. In the absence of a solution, the damage control personnel had to close the watertight compartment. But even so, the hull of the battlecruiser 'King Kong' tilted to a certain extent, and its speed was once again affected.

  In the next few minutes, the battlecruiser 'King Kong' was hit again. The three "Mackenson-class" battlecruisers of the German Navy all dropped shells on the "King Kong" battlecruiser one after another, further causing more damage to it.

Under such circumstances, the injury of the battlecruiser 'King Kong' became more and more serious. The battleship sank further.

   When there was really no other way, the captain of the battlecruiser 'King Kong' had to order the abandonment of the battleship. However, due to the limited number of lifeboats, most of the people still failed to escape and sank into the sea together with the battleship.

  The sinking of the battlecruiser 'King Kong' once again dealt a heavy blow to the navy of the island country. This is especially true when the situation of the battlecruisers "Hiei" and "Kirishima" is also very difficult. Deducting these three battlecruisers, the remaining eleven capital ships of the island nation's navy are simply vulnerable, and the German expeditionary fleet can easily deal with them all.

   Not long after the battlecruiser 'King Kong' was sunk, the battlecruiser 'Kirishima' followed in his footsteps. Although there were only two German battlecruisers attacking the battlecruiser "Kirishima". However, the luck of the battlecruiser "Kirishima" was even worse.

  A 343mm artillery shell penetrated the ammunition depot of the stern main turret of the "Kirishima" battlecruiser, causing more than a hundred shells in the ammunition depot to explode. The violent explosion shattered the stern of the battlecruiser 'Kirishima'. This caused the battlecruiser "Kirishima" to sink into the sea in just two minutes. Of the more than 2,000 officers and soldiers on the battleship, except for a very small number of people, all of them sank into the sea together with the battleship.

  The "Hiei" battlecruiser fell into the siege of three "Derfflinger-class" battlecruisers and three "Makensen-class" battlecruisers. Back and forth, more than fifteen 380mm shells hit the hapless battlecruiser. Such an injury was completely fatal to the battlecruiser 'Hiei'.

   "Your Excellency, Commander, the 'Kongo', 'Hiei' and 'Kirishima' have been sunk one after another!" A staff officer reported to General Ijuin Goro.

   "I see, order all ships to fight to the death for the glory of the empire!" Admiral Ijuin Goro gave the order expressionlessly.

  However, from his slightly trembling body, it is obvious how uncomfortable he is now. The 'King Kong-class' battlecruisers are the most powerful warships of the Japanese navy. These battlecruisers purchased from the United Kingdom represent the ambition of the Japanese navy. But now, these battlecruisers have all been sunk. This seems to mean that the island navy has no future.

   With the defeat in this naval battle, Admiral Ijuin Goro knew that he could not escape, so he could only fight to the end.
