In the naval battles before World War 2, what if the battle with the opposing fleet could not overwhelm the opponent in the battle with the opposing armour? Then you can only use a torpedo Bo, although there are still very few thermodynamic torpedoes in this era, and everyone is still using less reliable compressed air dynamic torpedoes, but after having a gyroscope, the problem of walking in a straight line is solved. Although the range is still very close, and the hope is relatively slim, it is better than sitting back!

However, choosing lightning strikes is also a science, if Shelly takes the fleet up at this time, it is very likely that the opponent will be hit back directly by a random cannon, or dodge. After all, the torpedo range at this time generally does not exceed 4 figures. To be able to hit is not only to have skill, but also to look at luck.

Rumble! With a loud bang, a huge fireball erupted from the battle sequence of the US and Russian fleets, and then a large amount of high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor gushed out from the breach, forming a thick white mist. Columns of smoke and debris were thrown into the air tens of meters in a huge explosion. Even with the warships in front of them and the thick smoke, Magifen and Shelly were the first to notice the situation in the distance.

"There was a battleship that was heavily damaged, probably the Rurik, and its power system should have been destroyed." An American officer said as he looked at the battleship in the distance, which was still exploding. Perhaps to corroborate what the officer said, a battleship began to slowly break away from the battle column, and a 227KG shell successfully penetrated the armor protection of Rurik's side chord, and caused an explosion in the boiler compartment, which directly damaged a quarter of the boiler of the Rurik, and the speed dropped sharply, and the large amount of steam that had just been spewed out of the breach was caused by the leakage of steam in the power compartment. In order not to collide with the battleship behind and to save itself, the Rurik hung out the flag and temporarily withdrew from the battle.

"! Finished! At the first moment, such a sentence popped out of Shelly's head, the most vulnerable link in the US and Russian fleets has finally collapsed, so who will the Asama deal with now? Did you help the battleship Yashima in front knock out Brooklyn or help the Yakumo in the back kill Bayan? But no matter how you choose, it is almost certain that it will end quickly under the fierce artillery fire of two Japanese 10,000-ton armored cruisers. After a moment's hesitation, the Asama aimed its gun at the Brooklyn, which was in front.

When asked after the war why Heihachiro Togo focused his attack on the Brooklyn instead of the Bayan in the back, the future Japanese naval god replied: "Because the Yashima is too weak, it needs support, and Brooklyn is not so strong, so it is natural to destroy the easy ones first!" "Togo's decision is very right, and it is because of his choice that the collapse of the American and Russian fleets has accelerated!

"How's the powertrain now?" Essen looked at the fire area on the deck that was gradually being extinguished and asked in a deep voice, the outcome of this battle was already doomed, the American and Russian fleets had lost, but Essen did not want to sit still, at least to withdraw as many warships as possible from here. At this time, the speed of the two sides was only about 14 knots, after all, the two sides were engaged in an artillery battle, and the speed was too fast to be accurate. Although the Rurik was badly damaged and lost a lot of power, there was still a chance for a ship that could have run more than 19 knots and run 14 knots after repairs, but he didn't want to go back to his original position, because he knew that going back at this time would have no effect.

"If I still go back to the original battleline, not to mention the confusion caused to the formation, for the Japanese fleet, the Asama just turned the muzzle and took more than twenty minutes to knock the Rurik out of the battle column again, this is already the best result, maybe after going back, Rurik will not even have a chance to withdraw from the battle! Doing so can only sacrifice this battleship in vain! After the war, Essen explained his intentions for his actions.

"The report of the boiler compartment said that the power line can be repaired in 15 minutes, and the speed can reach 15 knots, but it will not be long." The deputy captain reported.

"Okay, 15 verses is enough. Time is not a big problem either, all crew members are ordered to wear life jackets, and we are about to have the most glorious moment of Rurik's life! Essen ordered. At this point, a bold plan appeared in Essen's mind.

For the next ten minutes, the armored cruiser Rurik tried to communicate with the Olympia while saving itself, and a moment later, the Olympia communicated with the other ships. And with the ever-changing flag, a bold and adventurous plan is gradually formed!

Half an hour later, the battered Rurik barely recovered to a level where it could continue fighting, and some smoke and water vapor still came out of the large hole in the power compartment from time to time. However, the battleship was finally able to return to 15 knots, and then it began to accelerate and try to return to the battle, but unexpectedly, the Rurik did not intend to return to its original position, but rushed directly towards the gap between the New York and the Olympia! And before that, under the deliberate control of the Americans, the gap between the two battleships was enough for the passage of the battleship, which is more than 120 meters long!

"What is this?" When he saw a huge figure spraying thick smoke through the American fleet, the captain of the Izumo, Shimamura Suo, was suddenly frightened! The battleship rushed towards the Japanese fleet almost in a desperate manner, and at this time it was limited by the speed of the fleet, and the speed of all Japanese warships was below 14 knots, and the acceleration of the battleship was not like driving a car, and it was left as soon as you stepped on the accelerator. And at this time, the trajectory of this battleship is exactly between the Izumo and the Kasuga behind!

"Is this going to be impacted?" Subconsciously, Shimamura ordered the battleship to be ready to evade at any time, and aimed all the ship's guns at this desperate Russian cruiser! The distance between the two sides quickly approached, and soon it was only about 1,800 meters, and at this time the Rurik finally began its last fight! At this time, the fire of the non-combating side of the Russian armored cruiser was still well preserved, and a full 8 6-inch guns were aimed at the tail of the Izumo, while the guns on the other side were aimed at the Kasuga, who was also dodging in a hurry!

In an instant, Rurik's artillery let out a roar of rage, and a dense barrage of shells swept across the two Japanese battleships. And Shelly, who seized the opportunity, immediately launched a charge against the Japanese protective cruiser formation with 5 battleships of the protective cruiser formation! The distance between the two sides quickly narrowed, and at a distance of about 1,500 meters, a group of warriors with sharp blades shot frantically at each other! This is the only chance for the Americans!
