Chapter 876: The most threatening wave of counterattacks

"Even if our friendly forces are in desperation, it does not mean that my fleet can be easily risked. Naval warfare has always required decisive force intervention. And I think that we did not have this before we merged with General Hood’s fleet. This kind of power.” After the war, someone found such a record in the battle log, and this made Lieutenant General Jeram one of the focal points of post-war controversy.

Major General Hood took the Invincible, Indomitable, Tireless, and Indomitable four battlecruisers and finally caught up with Lieutenant General Jeram’s fleet and expressed his willingness to accept the command of the Lieutenant General. At this time, there are 8 battleships in hand, 4 of which are super fearless Jeram finally thinks he has the capital of a war, 8 battleships! 40 13.5-inch cannons and 32 12-inch cannons, although you can’t penetrate your opponents, you can drown you with cannonballs!

"We are in front, and General Hood's fleet is behind. Two warships attacked one warship. When entering the battlefield, the formation expanded from a two-row formation to a battle line. Keep the distance between the ships. Our armor is not reliable!" Jie Lieutenant General Ram’s command was quickly transmitted to the entire fleet via radio and semaphores. At this time, the British reinforcement fleet was sailing against the coast. Coupled with the Victorian gray paint of the warship itself, the ship’s shadow was hidden in the background.

The formation of the two-row voyage shortened the length of the fleet as much as possible, and reduced the probability of being discovered at a long distance. The British tried their best to hide themselves. At this time, the battleship Saxony and the battleship Bavaria were concentrating their firepower on the Warrior, preparing to sink the queen with massive artillery shells. The Baden is wrapping the wound. The other four battleships are fighting two Moore Fleet and Tiger, one after another.

Lieutenant General Jeram chose a very good timing! At this time, the battle had been going on for about 2 hours, and both sides had consumed a lot in the constant pursuit. The situation of the 7 German battleships was far from the peak. The decline in speed and ammunition reserves are both staggering. At this time, Jeram's 8 battleships were in place! The British finally fought back the most threatening wave of this battle!

"The fleet is on the battle line!" The rangefinder of the battleship George V at the head of the fleet can clearly see the battleship Saxony in the distance. At this time, the Germans did not seem to notice the arrival of the British fleet. , The turret and rangefinder of the Saxony still aimed at the Warrior in the distance.

General Hood’s four battlecruisers slowed down further, and the four George V-class Super Intrepids began to accelerate and pass and began to turn. When the last battleship of this class, the Erin, tried before Hood’s flagship Invincible, Invincible quickly followed up, and the eight warships formed a complete battle line, and the distance between them was slightly adjusted.

"Ready to fight!" When the signal flag was raised, the British eight warships adjusted their targets for the last time. George V and Aas aimed their muzzles at Saxony, then Centurion and Erin The muzzle was aimed at Bavaria, the Invincible and Invincible aimed the muzzle at Baden, and the last indomitable and tireless aimed the muzzle at Württemberg. As for the three warships behind? I have been ignored for the time being. There is no way. The angle is not good. The British can't hit their opponents, and the opponents can't concentrate their firepower on the British. What's more, these 3 warships and 4 British warships on the opposite side can be taken care of, Jeram thought.

"Fire!" The battleship George V in the queue spouted five long tongues of fire, followed by Aas, Centurion, Erin... In a very short period of time, the British fleet fired nearly a hundred shells. A series of fireballs and smoke rose from the sea. Dozens of tons of shells roared and flew to the distant German fleet. The shells were produced when they passed through the air at high speed. The screaming noise came after the first wave of shells fell into the water.

In an instant, dozens of water columns as high as tens of meters obscured the front of the German fleet!

The British fleet fired without interference. If it weren't for the course of the two sides to be almost opposite, and the rate of speed change was somewhat large, such an attack environment could be almost perfect! Moreover, two warships attacked one warship. A total of 16 to 20 large-caliber artillery guns were tilted towards a target. Every minute, at least 10 tons of shells fell. Thinking about the scene in front of you, it makes people feel terrible!

"Put the smoke and evade immediately!" When the British's third round of shells had not fallen, the Saxon, who had realized that his situation was very critical, first began to release the smoke, and then Scheer made a decisive choice to avoid immediately. The German fleet is in a two-line battle, with opponents on the left and starboard sides, and judging from the fierce firepower of the opponent, Scheer even thought that he had hit the main force of the large fleet! At this moment, Scheer really intends to let go!

"The Great British Fleet is at least 2 hours away from us. This is definitely not a Great Fleet. Adjust and kill them!" The prince stood up and said solemnly, looking at the rising water column on the sea in the distance~www .wuxiaspot.com~ Until now, the battle has just begun!

Twenty minutes ago, the submarine force once again reported the position of the British fleet. They were still more than 100 kilometers away from the battlefield. This distance and position were completely consistent with the route of the British fleet estimated by the German naval staff. And as long as the big fleet is not there, the prince thinks he can deal with the situation at hand!

"Even if it is a big g with three attacks and three defenses? Our combat effectiveness is a roaring bear!" The prince didn't know why such a sentence suddenly popped out in his heart... The George V-class super fearless death smashing ability is stronger than that of the lion and tiger. 10 artillery cannon to 8 artillery, the firepower is 25% higher. 12-inch armor belt vs. 9-inch armor belt, it's not too much to say that it is three defenses against one defense, right? If you talk about speed, Betty’s Lions and Tigers are a big g with zero offense and zero defense, and Jeram’s fleet is equivalent to a violent big g with three offenses and three defenses. Although the Bavarians are not as scary as the tauren in ar3, they are at least at the level of Growling Bear! Of course, the premise is to complete the adjustment of the formation first.

The Betty fleet on the other side seemed to see the hope of victory. They began to shoot at the German ship with all the remaining artillery, but at this moment, all the main guns that can be used together were not enough! And the 7 main guns of 4 different warships fired? This tm can damage Mao! As for the attack on the other side, the German fleet ignored the scattered water jets that fell far around it. If it could hit the target, the British could buy a lottery ticket.
