A 305-mm shell fired from the battlecruiser "Blucher" blew a large hole in the bow of the battleship "Sovereign". Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoBecause the battleship Monarch used its main firepower against the Seydlitz, the Blücher attacked almost without any interference. Under this kind of calm attack, it naturally makes the hit rate have a higher guarantee.

This shell did not cause much damage to the battleship Sovereign. However, there is still a certain impact on the blow to morale.

The three battleships, located behind the battle line of the British Navy, were undoubtedly the most dangerous. Each of their battleships had to face the siege of two German naval battlecruisers. Even if the 'Blucher-class' battlecruisers were armed with 305 mm guns. However, the combination of a 50-caliber main gun and cap-piercing shells was enough to penetrate the armor of the British Navy's Orion-class battleships.

Less than twenty minutes into the battle, a number of battleships of the Royal Navy were hit. Although, it's not a big injury. But the battle has only just begun. If the German Navy's warships continue to hit them, sooner or later they will be inflicted heavy losses. At that time, the losses of the Royal Navy may be large.

Although, the officers and men of the Royal Navy, are also trying to open fire. But their hit rate was significantly lower than that of the German Navy. And, again, did not inflict much damage on the warships of the German Navy. On the one hand, of course, because the battlecruisers of the German Navy were very well defended. But on the other hand, it is because of the problems of the British Navy's shells themselves.

As time passed, the situation became more and more unfavorable for the British Navy. John? Admiral Jericho and David? Lieutenant General Betty's face became more and more ugly.

"Your Excellency, Commander, no matter what, it shouldn't be too much of a problem to hold on for an hour." David? Lieutenant General Betty said. Of course, he was just comforting.

John? Admiral Jericho nodded, not saying anything more. In his heart, he is also very nervous at the moment.

"Boom! Rumble! ”

At this time, the battleship "Thor", which was located at the end of the battle line, was hit again. A shell fired from the battlecruiser "Leopold" hit the side of the battleship "Thor". The waterline armor was torn open, and seawater began to pour frantically into the battleship.

It was at this time that the German Navy's von? Morality? The battlecruiser Tann' also hit the battleship "Thor".

In the following few minutes, the battlecruiser 'Leopold' and the 'von?' Morality? The battlecruiser Tann joined forces to hit the battleship "Thor" more than ten times, blowing up the battleship to the ground.

Eventually, the battleship "Thor" quickly sank into the sea because of too much water.

After sinking the battleship Thor, 'von? Morality? The battlecruiser Tann and Leopold joined the siege of the British Navy's battleship Sovereign. The battleship Sovereign, which had been besieged by four battle cruisers, was in even more danger.

"Your Excellency, the Commander has sunk the Thor, which was sunk by the Germans. The Sovereign' was besieged by four German battle cruisers and was in danger. "A staff officer to John? Admiral Jericho reported.

But alas, John? Admiral Jericho was also helpless about it. The only thing they could do was wait for it to get dark and then evacuate under the cover of night. There is no other way. As for how many battleships would be sunk by the German Navy during this waiting process, Johan? Admiral Jericho didn't know either. Perhaps, we can pray to God that they will suffer less!

"Order the ships and keep fighting!" John? Admiral Jericho ordered with a cold face.

The battleship 'Sovereign' was besieged by the German Navy and held out for only five minutes before being sunk. In the heat of battle, the battleship was hit by at least 15 shells in five minutes. Even this huge battleship with a displacement of 25,000 tons can't bear it! In the violent explosion, the battleship 'Sovereign' was almost torn to pieces before sinking into the sea. Almost all of the more than 700 British naval officers and sailors on board the battleship sank into the sea with the battleship, and none of them survived.

After the battleship "Sovereign" was sunk, it was the turn of the battleship "Orion". The battleship was even more unlucky, being directly besieged by six battlecruisers. Its fate can be imagined.

By the time the battleship Orion was sunk, the battleship Lützov of the German Navy had already seriously damaged the battleship George V of the British Navy. This battleship, which had been lucky enough to survive the last mid-Atlantic naval battle, was not so lucky this time.

The other battlecruisers that arrived later directly laid siege to the battleship "King George V". Soon, the battleship was also sunk.

As a result, the British Navy was left with only four 'Vengeance-class' battleships still struggling to support it. However, they are still being suppressed. Now, other warships of the German Navy have eliminated the battleship "King George V" and the three battleships of the "Orion class". Then, what awaits them is undoubtedly besieged.

Although, there is not much time left until dark. However, the besieged British Navy still paid a great price.

The battleship 'Royal Oak' was silent during the siege because of too much water.

The battleship 'Sovereign' was even more unlucky, and in the fierce battle, a 380 mm shell penetrated the ammunition magazine of the rear main gun. When the shells in the ammunition depot were detonated, the entire stern of the ship was blown up. Eventually, the battleship Sovereign sank into the icy North Sea with its stern facing down and bow facing upward.

The British Navy's battleships 'Revenge' and 'Resolve' were also heavily damaged in the shelling. However, its speed was not affected in any way. They held out until dark, and then, taking advantage of the cover of night, escaped the pursuit of the German navy.

This naval battle also came to an end. A whole day of naval battles ended with the victory of the German Navy.
