Chapter 2106: assassin

"Don't worry, we will find the right opportunity, one hit will kill!" Brigadier General Neelpi said after taking a look at the armored cruiser unit struggling in the distance.

As the commander of the British light cruiser squadron who had participated in the tragic Battle of the Doge Sandbar, Brigadier General Neelpi remembered the ferocity of the German fleet that year, and even left a considerable psychological shadow, with more than 1 dozen. The British Dreadnoughts and Super Dreadnoughts were thrown into this battle. As a result, more than half a dozen battleships were lost. The British naval fast fleet that fought in World War I collapsed. In fact, the British light cruiser squadrons suffered even more losses. It rushed towards the opponent like a moth throwing fire, and was beaten up and down in ten to twenty minutes. Therefore, Brigadier General Neelpi has only one principle now, being cautious, cautious, and cautious. !

　　 But this kind of caution does not mean fear of war! When the armored cruiser unit was attacked, Brigadier General Nerpi, who was still hiding in the night, began to assess the situation on the battlefield. When he saw the muzzle flames fired by two Mainz-class armored cruisers, the Brigadier General realized that this was the main German fleet! And define it as the dreadnought class! Although the assessment has been biased, the overall result is not too different. Anyway, if the British light cruiser wants to go up at this time, it is estimated to be knocked to death.

　　 Originally, the equipment of Brigadier General Neelpi entered from the non-engagement side and then launched a lightning strike. After all, after all the main guns of the Dreadnought were aimed at the armored cruiser, the opposite side had only secondary guns. At this time, the British light cruiser could take advantage of the German fleet's main guns to turn around, and withstand the firepower of the secondary artillery to force a wave of torpedoes. However, Earl Spey’s caution frustrated Nerpi's plan. There were always destroyers on the non-belligerent side to protect his flanks, which made Brigadier General Nerpi’s attack uncomfortable.

　　 So Brigadier General Neelpi, who has been dangling at sea after the war, finally decided to launch an attack from the end of the German fleet! Because the number of German fleet frigates is limited, there is almost no fleet behind, and the last two ships are light cruisers, which are easier to deal with! The disadvantage is also obvious. If a torpedo is used for a tail chase attack, the effective range is very close, and the attack surface is very small. After hesitating a bit, Brigadier General Neelpi sent a signal requesting the cooperation of the two destroyer detachments.

　　At this time, the light cruiser Pillau, the rearmost light cruiser of the German cruiser squadron, was scanning the back with the searchlights on the stern and the rear mast. Even though the German fleet has a huge advantage now, it still does not relax its vigilance.

　　 "There is something!" When a beam of light swept across the sea, a shadow quickly crossed the area covered by the beam of light. Suddenly, the German officers and soldiers responsible for the rear guard on the entire battleship immediately acted! The two 88MM guns at the stern began to release flares to the rear of the fleet, and at the same time, the signaller also reported to the colleagues in front that he had encountered the enemy in the rear! The torpedo boats and destroyers that were originally on the non-engaging side are also preparing to turn to seal the gap behind!

　　 However, the British have the first mover advantage after all! The 3 destroyers quickly approached the target, braving the intensive artillery fire from the rear, and then shot at least 8 torpedoes from a distance of one meter! The gray-black torpedo was pushed into the water by high-pressure air. After reaching the specified depth, the engine started. A trail of white bubbles ejected from the back of the torpedo. Eight torpedoes rushed towards the distant Germany at a speed of more than 40 knots. Corvette!

"Leave the formation! Avoid immediately!" With the order, the rudder of the light cruiser Pilau was hit to the maximum in an instant. The roar of the steam turbine pushed the warship to avoid the intrusive lightning strike. The huge bow was almost on the sea. Moving up, because the steering was too fast, the entire warship tilted to a certain extent. However, the effect of seemingly violent lightning strikes is very general, because at this time, the speed of the German light cruiser is about 25 knots, and the 40-knot torpedo attack from the tail, minus the speed of the light cruiser, only 15 knots. So, if nothing else, the Pillau can easily avoid this wave of lightning strikes!

　　 However, just after the Pillow gave way to the last torpedo from the stern, the warship has turned by nearly 80 degrees! The speed was also greatly reduced due to the emergency steering, dropping from the original 25 knots to about 18 knots! And at this time, the four light cruisers of Brigadier General Neelpi came over! At this time, the side projection of the huge hull of the Pillow was just within the torpedo attack range of the British light cruiser squadron!

"Kill him!" Brigadier General Neelpi said excitedly, looking at the Pillow, which was covered by the searchlight lantern not far away. For nearly half an hour of tolerance and the attack of the destroyer squadron, the British light cruiser squadron found a one-shot killer. opportunity!

Four British light cruisers rushed up at a speed of more than 23 knots, and more than 15 6-inch guns were madly tilting towards the Pillow~www.wuxiaspot.com~ 6-inch high explosive bombs exceeding 2 tons per minute Roaring and flying at a distance of less than 3,000 meters, it shot at the opponent. Under the huge firepower advantage, the entire Pirau was covered by fire and explosion. The explosion of shells, the shattering of the hull and the sound of flame burning were like death. Whispers. The **** of death wandering over the battlefield is ready to take in the new sacrifices on the war altar!

　　Pilau was struggling in the rain of bullets. Although the heavy armor belt kept his core area safe, the out-of-control fire still made the warship stagger. However, the British did not intend to just let this poor warship go, use superior firepower as a cover, and then quickly get close to the opponent and use torpedoes to solve the problem. Brigadier General Neelpi had already thought about it, fast in and out.

"Release the torpedo!" With the order of the lightning strike, the light cruiser Champion and the second Caster accelerated again and kept the course parallel to the Pillau. When the two sides got together 800 meters, The two three-unit torpedo tubes on the two light cruisers quickly aimed at the German light cruiser not far away. After binding the shots, 6 torpedoes flew out of the tube in turn and rushed towards the distant German light cruiser. Pilau!

"Hit!" Less than 2 minutes after the torpedo was launched, a thick water column rose from the side of the Pillow, and this German light cruiser with a displacement of more than 5,000 tons seemed to be held up by a pair of big hands. The entire battleship seemed to jump up sharply, and then sank! A huge fireball penetrated the middle deck of the ship, and billowing smoke and water vapor quickly filled the entire battleship.
