Chapter 1125: Continuation

Chapter 1125

"Damn it, I didn't expect that the first hit was actually made by the Germans." Major General Moore scolded, but he was not worried that under the huge advantage, the Germans would eventually fall into the dust. And as expected, when the Mokki accurately slammed the second shell on the bow of the New Zealand, a 15-inch shell also hit the Mokki's bow! A big hole was made in the bow armor belt that was 4 inches thick!

And then, the British fleet's hit rate that completed fire coordination began to rise sharply. In less than 3 minutes, three more shells fell on the target. Except for a 12-inch shell that was bounced off by the armor, another shell pushed a piece of armor belt back by about 8 inches! A crack more than 2 meters long was left. The last shell landed on the No. 3 turret of the Mochi, exploding a 350MM barrel into two sections.

Counterattack and Australia alternately fired a round of shells at Moqi. As for the Tiger? In the history of this cargo, from the Dogger Sandbank to the Jutland naval battle, there was almost no hit except for killing the fish, and this plane is still like this. This is definitely not to blame for the equipment. It can only be said that the personnel on the Tiger are really. Too scary.... As for the New Zealand, it temporarily withdrew from the battle to extinguish the fire. In Moore's view, anyway, three warships are enough to knock off the opponent, so why take the risk?

"Let's release the smoke screen, let's avoid it first." Lefetsov commanded watching the flames rising on his back deck. Now he can be described as very relaxed. The Hipper fleet is only 50 kilometers away from the battlefield at most, and it has an engagement distance of 20 kilometers away. Up to about 20 kilometers left. At this time, the warships of the two sides are heading east. Although the time of rendezvous will be extended, as long as they can hold on for another 45 minutes, the Hipper fleet must return! Judging from the current situation, your own smoking can can be used for another 30 minutes... At this time, unless there is a British submarine underwater, and then directly hits more than 3 mines, otherwise, Mao Qi can basically guarantee to go home...

However, the current situation is still more than enough to go in. At this time, it may be more difficult to keep a British battleship. On the one hand, the British are very careful. Once the two first-generation battlecruisers are beaten, they will immediately retreat. Unless a shot goes into the ammunition depot, the Mochi will have no chance. Another reason is that two other Queen-class battleships are also coming here quickly. Maybe an hour later, the two sides will be 5 on 6 situations. On paper, the German fleet must have the upper hand, but if the British wanted to leave, it is estimated that Hipper would not be able to chase after him...

However, what Lefetsov couldn't think of was that the time he went home was unexpectedly advanced! It's not that Hipper's speed really soared to more than 28 knots, which shortened the confluence time, but because the seaplane carrier carried by the Moore fleet discovered the Hipper fleet coming in the distance!

"God, what did I see?!" Lieutenant Herbert, who was flying a Havilland seaplane, looked at the four huge warships in the distance and said in surprise! "Damn! Aren't all the German warships in the naval port? How come out four of them! My God! That's Bavaria! Three Bavarian-class battleships! We're going to be done!" The telegrapher in the back seat Some shaking sent the news to Major General Moore.

"I XXX! How did Jericho get it?! Let the German fleet slip out?!" Major General Moore exploded, if he felt a little bit of a dog before. So now he feels a little bit of a dog (Japanese). He couldn't think of it. Although there are some twists and turns in the present, the battle that will always be won has evolved into this way. If it were not for the seaplane to provide detection, it would be extremely possible for the opponent to fight back!

"Your Excellency Commander, is it possible that the Germans disguised themselves with a merchant ship?" an officer said unwillingly.

"Absolutely impossible!" Major General Moore said decisively. If the information is correct, the other party's speed is around 26 knots. Even the current cruise ship can run at this speed not much, and three ships can be taken out at once! Does Germany have 3 cruise ships that are similar in size to Bavaria and can run at a high speed of 26 knots? Certainly not! What's more, the so-called camouflage ship is, at most, getting the superstructure and fooling around at a long distance. After the seaplane approaches, it can be judged from the ship type and speed quickly. Therefore, Major General Moore’s judgment is that there may be disguised Xibei cargo in the port, but here, these three ships must be real!

"Fuck! Quickly evacuate and get beaten up. We will join the Warrior and the Prestige!" In the Thunder-Surbrus campaign, he saw the British fleet being slaughtered by the Bavarians. The lower limit is still on the issue of retreating. Very low. In his opinion, it is still too late to walk. After all, the distance between the two sides is 40 kilometers. Although the average speed of the other side is faster, it will be 8 hours later to smooth this distance, and 8 hours. When it gets dark, the German fleet will certainly not find itself.

"I'm sending a telegram to Jericho to ask him what the **** is going on!" Major General Moore didn't even use the honorific name and said directly. What Major General Moore did was the safest way. After joining the two queens, he would definitely have more confidence. If luck is better, if the other four queens can come, it is fine to fight back. Of course, if Hipper chooses to withdraw afterwards, then today's battle is really over.

"Colon Lefetsov said in the telegram that their warship was not seriously damaged~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and asked if we should continue fighting." A staff officer asked with a telegram from the Mochi.

"Forget it, our task is just to take the Mochi home, let's go!" Taking a look at the general direction of the British fleet, Hipper suppressed the urge to catch up and ordered the fleet to join Mochi immediately. , And then withdrew from the Skagerrak Strait to the German mainland.

The current situation is that both sides have scruples. The Moor fleet in front of them is definitely not able to beat the Hipper fleet. If you add two queens, it is not too much, 6V5? The three Bavarian-class ships are one grade better than the three queens. It is also very easy for Mochi and Cedric to hit New Zealand and Australia. What? You say tiger number? This product can't be output, just ignore it.

But Hipper doesn't know the position of the other four queens, and the opponents are all fast battleships. If you want to catch up, you should prepare to run a marathon. If there are four more queens, Hipper won’t be able to walk around, and now the large fleet is still in the North Sea. It’s hard to say how they will react after receiving this news, so after weighing them, Hipper decided to accept as soon as he saw it...
