"General, the No. 4 turret was completely destroyed. Fortunately, no greater damage was caused. However, we only have six main guns left!" The staff officer reported to Lieutenant General David Beatty.
"Damn it!" Lieutenant General David Betty cursed.
The current situation is very unfavorable to the battlecruiser 'Lion', which also shows that they have been suppressed in this battle. It is not that the quality of British naval officers and soldiers is not as good as that of the German navy, so this undoubtedly shows that the warships of the British navy are not as good as the Germans.
"How could the warships of the Germans be better than those of the Royal Navy? This is not scientific at all!" Lieutenant General David Betty roared in his heart.
For a long time, the British Navy has been leading the development trend of the world navy. This can be seen from the fact that the British Navy took the lead in building dreadnoughts. This also makes the generals of the British Navy think that their warships are the best and the most powerful. However, now that the battlecruiser "Lion" has been suppressed by warships of the same level of the German Navy, it is naturally difficult for them to believe it.
"Well done, boys! Keep up the good work, hit me hard, and sink the British warship!" Lieutenant General Spey's face was full of smiles. After destroying a main turret of the battlecruiser 'Lion', they had an even greater advantage in this battle.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The three triple-mounted 343mm main guns of the battlecruiser 'Moltke' continued to fire, constantly smashing shells at the battlecruiser 'Lion'. The shells fell around the battlecruiser 'Lion', splashing jets of water into the sky.
At the same time, although the battlecruiser 'Lion' has only three dual-mounted 343mm main guns left, they are still desperately launching a counterattack. Even if they are at a disadvantage now, the Royal Navy's indomitable combat style enables them to persevere even in adversity.
"We haven't lost yet, we're just temporarily at a disadvantage. As long as we're lucky enough to score hits in the next battle and hit the Germans hard, we'll be able to come back!" Lieutenant General David Betty secretly thought .
At the same time, Lieutenant General David Beatty also ordered the signal corps to continue sending telegrams to the Royal Princess and Queen Mary, telling them to come for reinforcements. He knew that with the battlecruiser "Lion" alone, it would be very difficult to defeat the battlecruiser "Moltke" of the German Navy, let alone sink it. Only by gathering more warships can it be possible to achieve this strategic goal.
"Boom!"
At 2:44 in the afternoon, the battlecruiser "Moltke" scored another hit in this round of salvo. A 343mm artillery shell hit the front deck of the battlecruiser 'Lion'. The weak front deck armor was directly pierced, and the shell exploded inside the battleship, igniting a raging fire.
The heroic British navy sailors, wearing gas masks, rushed to the fire, trying to put out the fire in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, if the fire is allowed to burn, it will only cause more damage to the battleship. It's just that the fire produced after the shell exploded is often highly poisonous, and even wearing a gas mask cannot ensure that no poisonous smoke is inhaled. Therefore, it is often difficult for the British sailors who participated in the fire fighting to come out alive after rushing into the fire. But even so, these British sailors were fearless and tried their best to put out the fire.
"****! Why are the Germans so accurate? Even more accurate than ours? Could it be that the quality of German naval officers and soldiers has surpassed that of the British Empire? How is this possible?" Such a result made David ? Lieutenant General Betty is unacceptable.
"Fight back, keep fighting back! Give those **** Germans some color!"
Being hit one after another, the morale of the British naval officers and soldiers on the battlecruiser "Lion" was greatly affected. However, even so, they were persistent and did not give up because of this.
"What about the 'Princess Royal' and the 'Queen Mary'? When will they arrive?" Lieutenant General David Betty asked. Now he is even more eager for reinforcements to arrive in time.
"General, they are on their way." Colonel Kevin replied.
Because the combat effectiveness of the German Navy's battlecruisers was underestimated, the battlecruiser "Lion" is now in a very dangerous situation. If the reinforcements can't arrive in time, the battlecruiser 'Lion', not to mention defeating the battlecruiser 'Moltke', even retreating completely, may become a big problem.
"God! I hope the 'Princess Royal' and the 'Queen Mary' will arrive in time!" Lieutenant General David Betty prayed secretly to God. At this time, even he, the commander, felt a little hopeless in his heart.
On the other side, the German sailors on the battlecruiser "Moltke" became more and more brave as they fought. After successive hits, their morale was boosted even more, and they saw the hope of victory.
"Boys, work harder, the glory of sinking the first British battleship will soon belong to us! Now, we must not let this glory that is about to be ours slip away like this!" Lieutenant General Spee face smile.
If they can sink a capital ship of the British Navy in this battle, then this will become the first capital ship of the British Navy to be sunk in this war. It will be a great honor.
The shelling of the battlecruiser 'Moltke' has become more violent. Shells kept falling on the battlecruiser 'Lion', making the battlecruiser 'Lion' dangerous, as if it might be hit again at any time.
"General, the battlecruiser 'Goeben' is calling. They found two battlecruisers of the British Navy coming here. There are still 20 minutes at most before they can enter the battlefield." A staff officer told Lieutenant General Spee reported.
Lieutenant Admiral Spee couldn't help but frowned. The British Navy had two more battlecruisers, which was not good news for them. If it is not done well, the cooked Masako will fly.
"Order the 'Goben' to entangle one of the British battlecruisers and send another one over. Even with one enemy and two, we may not be afraid of the British. Let the artillery positions hurry up, before the British Before our reinforcements arrive, sink or severely damage the British battlecruiser in front of you!" Lieutenant General Spee ordered.
"Yes, General."
Ten minutes later, the battlecruiser 'Royal Princess' of the British Navy arrived on the battlefield. As for the battlecruiser "Queen Mary", it was dragged by the battlecruiser "Goburn". But even so, the battlecruiser "Moltke" had to fight two against one.
