"Asshole! Damn the Germans, fire and sink them!" The captain of the battleship 'Ramilis' was furious. The behavior of the battleship 'Saxon' is completely provocative to them!
The four twin 381mm main guns of the battleship 'Ramilis' began to fight back violently. However, because the gunner can only aim by himself. Therefore, the impact point of the shell is very far away from the battleship 'Saxon'. The farthest point of impact was even five hundred meters away. Such shelling made the Royal Navy itself feel ashamed.
In contrast, the battleship "Sachsen" of the German Navy performed very well. Although it failed to hit the battleship 'Ramilis', the impact point was not far away.
After receiving the order from Admiral John Jellicoe, the battleships 'Resolution' and 'Sovereign' of the British Navy gave up the bombardment of the battleships 'Baden' and 'Württemberg' and turned to Fired on the battleship 'Saxon' in an attempt to rescue the battleship 'Ramilis' which was at a disadvantage.
"Order the 'Baden' and 'Württemberg'. Continue to bombard the 'Resolution' and the 'Sovereign', and take advantage of this rare opportunity to severely damage the British!" Admiral Reinhard Scheer ordered.
He did not change the previously set strategy because of the tactics of the British Navy. After all, it is not so easy for the British Navy's "Resolution" and "Sovereignty" to hit the German Navy's "Sachsen" in a short period of time.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The battle between the two sides became more and more intense. Shells exploded continuously on the sea surface, revealing to people how tragic this naval battle was.
On the battle line of the British Navy, the most amazing performance is undoubtedly the battleship 'Agincourt'. This battleship originally built for Brazil has as many as seven main turrets, with a total of 14 305mm main guns. On a battleship with a standard displacement of only more than 27,000 tons, the installation of so many main turrets certainly makes this battleship have very powerful firepower. However, the price paid is unstable navigation and weak armor. Especially in terms of armor, the armor of the battleship 'Agincourt' is not much thicker than that of the battlecruisers of the British Navy. The armor of the waterline main armor belt is only 9 inches, or 228 mm, at its thickest point, the armor of the turret is only 10 inches, or 254 mm, and the armor of the conning tower is 11 inches, or 280 mm. As for the deck armor, it is only 1 inch, as thin as a piece of paper. Once this kind of defense is hit, there is no doubt that there is only one result, which is to be easily torn apart, and then cause heavy damage.
However, at least on the surface, the battleship 'Agincourt' is undoubtedly full of vitality. 7 main turrets, firing continuously. Cannonballs were continuously fired at the German Navy's "Prince Regent Luitpold", splashing jets of water around it.
Although, the battleship 'Louitpold Regent' has only three triple-mounted 343mm main guns, which is 5 fewer than the 'Agincourt'. But the 343mm main gun with 50 times the caliber is much more powerful than the 305mm main gun with 45 times the caliber. Especially when the armor of the battleship 'Agincourt' is so weak, once it is hit by the battleship 'Louitpold Regent', it will be enough to cause serious damage to it.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The German naval officers and soldiers on the battleship 'Prince Regent' Louistpold were not frightened by the powerful firepower of the battleship 'Agincourt', they were still firing methodically. After forming a straddle long ago, the battleship "Prince Regent of Luitpold" has already switched to a salvo. However, it has never been able to get a hit.
However, many times good luck comes inadvertently.
During the salvo of the "Louis Polde Regent", a shell hit the stern of the battleship "Agincourt". You know, three of the seven main turrets of the "Agincourt" battleship are deployed on the stern. The three main turrets at the stern are in the shape of a pyramid, high in the middle and low in the front and back. This allows the three main turrets to shoot in the same direction. However, the deployment of so many dense main guns poses a greater threat.
The 343mm shell has a huge armor-piercing ability under the action of huge kinetic energy. In particular, the armor of the battleship 'Agincourt' was already very weak, and it was easily torn apart.
This shell hit the No. 6 main turret of the 'Agincourt', which is the main turret named Saturday (the 7 main turrets of the battleship 'Agincourt', named Monday to Saturday). Sunday). The armor with a thickness of only 254 mm was easily torn apart in front of the 343 mm shells like paper.
After the shell penetrated the turret, it did not explode immediately, but continued downward, piercing the fire door between the ammunition depot and the turret, and then exploded.
The explosion immediately detonated hundreds of shells in the ammunition depot. What's more terrible is that the three main turrets on the stern of the "Agincourt" battleship are next to each other, and the three ammunition depots are also next to each other. The ammunition depot in the middle exploded, can the ammunition depots on both sides survive? It just exploded.
The detonation of the three ammunition depots is extremely powerful. The entire stern of the battleship 'Agincourt' was destroyed in a violent explosion. If you look down from the sky, you can see the battleship 'Agincourt', as if it was bitten by a monster, and the stern of the ship was directly bitten off.
Sea water poured into it frantically from the stern of the battleship 'Agincourt'. The British sailors on the battleship began to scatter for their lives before they even had time to control the damage. None of them were fools, and they all knew that after suffering such heavy damage, the fate of the battleship 'Agincourt' had almost been decided. If they stay on the battleship again, they will be killed directly like the other unlucky ones.
Other officers and soldiers of the British Navy were also shocked by this situation. They really did not expect that the battleship 'Agincourt' would be so fragile. Isn't it crazy to be killed by just being hit by a cannonball?
General John Jellicoe and Lieutenant General David Beatty also looked shocked. The battle has just begun, are they going to lose a capital ship?
