Before the battlecruiser "Royal Princess" arrived on the battlefield, the battlecruiser "Lion" received another shot. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info However, luck is better and not fatal.

Seeing the arrival of the battlecruiser HMS Royal Princess, it made Davy? Lieutenant General Betty's heart that had been hanging was finally put back in her stomach. If the Royal Princess doesn't arrive in time, they will be sunk sooner or later. After all, luck can't always be so good. Once hit, there is a risk of being directly sunk.

"Let the 'Royal Princess' join us in besieging the Germans. This time, we must sink the Germans! "David? Lieutenant General Betty gritted his teeth and gave the order. The battlecruiser Lion was so embarrassed in the previous battle that it was almost sunk. This is a great shame for him.

"Yes, General." Colonel Kevin personally gave the order.

The arrival of the battlecruiser HMS Royal Princess instantly changed the situation on the battlefield. With the strength of the battlecruiser Moltke, it was not a problem at all to suppress the British battlecruiser Lion. However, with the addition of a 'Royal Princess', the situation is different. No matter how you say it, it is difficult to beat four hands with two fists.

"Order all gun emplacements, ignore the British reinforcements first, concentrate firepower, and sink the battle cruiser 'Lion'." Lieutenant General Spee gave the order. In such a situation, they would only be able to regain the initiative by sinking a British naval battlecruiser first.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The three 50-caliber 343-mm guns of the battlecruiser Moltke continued to fire fiercely. The rate of fire is actually a little higher than before. This made the shells that fell around the battlecruiser Lion even more dense.

David? Lieutenant General Betty also guessed Lieutenant General Spee's intentions. However, he was not afraid. After all, it is not so easy to sink a huge battlecruiser. Now they have reversed the situation. Once the Royal Princess joins in, victory will be within reach.

"Open fire and attack the German battleship!" The captain of the battlecruiser 'Royal Princess' gave the order. Seeing that the battlecruiser "Lion" was beaten in a mess, the British naval officers and sailors of the battlecruiser "Royal Princess" also put away their contempt.

The battlecruiser "Royal Princess" and the battlecruiser "Lion" are ships of the same class, and all performance indicators are the same as that of the "Lion" battlecruiser. If these two battle cruisers were to face the 'Moltke' battlecruiser one-on-one, they would certainly not be opponents. However, the combination of the two immediately put the battlecruiser 'Moltke' at a disadvantage.

"Boom! Rumble! ”

Shells continued to explode around the battlecruiser Moltke, splashing columns of water into the sky. The sea water fell from the sky and soaked the hull of the battlecruiser Moltke.

"Boom!"

A violent explosion sounded, and the battlecruiser Moltke was shaken, and many of the sailors on the battleship fell because they did not stand firm. Even Lieutenant General Shi Pei, who was directing the battle in the command tower, couldn't help but fall and eat.

"Report the loss!" Getting up from the deck, Lieutenant General Spee asked for the first time, regardless of his embarrassment. He knew that the tremor just now must have been caused by the battleship being hit. In his heart, he prayed to God that he would not be hit. Otherwise, it's all over.

"General, the No. 1 main turret was hit. However, the shells of the British did not penetrate our turret armor and exploded outside the turret. But the gunners in the turret were all shocked to death. ”

Lieutenant General Shi Pei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this. Although, a group of gunners was killed, which, of course, was a large loss. But it's better than having the turret armor pierced and the entire turret destroyed! In fact, if it caused a martyrdom, the entire battlecruiser would be destroyed.

"Let the spare gunner immediately enter the turret to fight, and restore the design as quickly as possible!" Lieutenant General Spee ordered.

"Hooray! Long live the British Empire! Long live the Royal Navy! ”

When the No. 1 main turret of the battlecruiser Moltke was hit, the British sailors on the battlecruiser Lion and the royal princess couldn't help but cheer. They have been suppressed for too long, and now they are finally seeing a turnaround.

However, when the smoke cleared and the intact main turret of the battlecruiser Moltke No. 1 was revealed, they were all dumbfounded.

"Son of a bitch, what the hell is going on? The defense of the Germans, was it so strong? "David? Lieutenant General Betty, I can't help but scold my mother. Originally, he thought that he could seriously damage the battlecruiser "Moltke". However, now it seems that he is simply thinking too much.

Meanwhile, David? Vice Admiral Betty also had some uneasiness in his heart, the German Navy's battle cruisers were so strong in defense, at least much stronger than the British Navy. Doesn't that show that the defenses of the battleships of the German Navy were also stronger? In this case, in the future decisive battle, the British Navy may suffer a loss. After all, you can't penetrate the enemy's defenses, but the enemy can easily penetrate your own defenses, which is simply a passive beating!

At 3:04, bad luck struck. The battlecruiser Moltke fired a crucial shot in this salvo.

A 343-mm shell hit the port side of the battlecruiser 'Lion'. The shell easily pierced the waterline armor, which was only 229 mm thick, blowing it out of a large hole.

The sea water rushed into the battleship, causing it to tilt gradually.

Even if the sailors of the "Lion" battlecruiser closed the watertight door as soon as possible, they still could not prevent the "Lion" battlecruiser from tilting and sinking further.

After determining that the battlecruiser 'Lion' was already sunk, Davy? Lieutenant General Betty immediately rushed to the battlecruiser 'Royal Princess' in a transport boat and continued to direct the battle.

However, when the "Lion" battlecruiser was no longer able to return to the sky, and the German Navy's "Moltke" battlecruiser fiercely chased after it, Davy? Lieutenant General Betty was timid, and he gave the order to retreat. He was afraid that if he continued to fight, even the battlecruiser "Royal Princess" would follow in the footsteps of the battlecruiser "Lion".

The battlecruiser "Queen Mary", which was entangled with the battlecruiser "Goburn", also received the order to retreat and accelerated its withdrawal from the battlefield.
