But the destroyers were different, and in the night environment, the effective range of the guns was significantly reduced. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info And if there is no range advantage, the greatest advantage of artillery over torpedoes is also ....... In addition, the destroyer is inherently very small and fast, which makes it easy to hide and sneak attack. Knowing that the opponent has a large number of destroyers, the number of his own side is relatively small. and rushing headlong in the direction where there may be a large number of destroyers on the other side, that is almost looking for death! Instead of facing torpedoes, it is better to face naval guns!

The Allied fleet quickly carried out the count's order, and the three battleships began to accelerate their turn, at this time, after a period of preparation, the air pressure generated in the boiler room was sufficient, the output of the steam turbines began to rise in a straight line, and the speed of the three battleships had increased from the initial 12 knots to about 17 knots, which was basically the same as the main French fleet. If nothing else, you can quickly get rid of your opponent.

And at this time, the French naturally let go of the German fleet like this, and a certain German battleship thought so too! The tide of battle inadvertently changed, and Vice Admiral Lebris frowned slightly when he saw that the German fleet was preparing to withdraw in the opposite direction, still under the light of the fire.

The Germans seem to have seen through his plan, if they wait for the fast battleships to turn to finish, then the armored cruisers they left behind will be in the rear of the other side, and the speed of the armored cruisers is not comparable to those new fast battleships! At that point, the best thing for the French would be to watch each other disappear from the night.

And the worst result was that the German fleet, after a circle in the shadows, came back to ....... If that's the case, the offensive and defensive momentum will completely change, and your 2 Dreadnoughts and 2 quasi-quasi-Dreadnoughts can't beat other people's 3 fast battleships! Plus 3 cruisers won't work! To make a more figurative analogy, the other party is an agile black panther, and he is a wolf, this wolf temporarily suppressed the opponent through a sneak attack through careful planning, but if the other party eases up, maybe he can kill this wolf in one bite! So at this critical moment, when the German fleet was almost about to escape, Lebris decisively played the last trump card - the armored cruiser was pasty, the torpedo boat was struggling, and the capital ship was suppressed from a distance!

Just when the Germans quickly turned around and were about to shake off the encirclement and interception of the French fleet, three slender figures suddenly rushed out of the dark night, looking at the huge figures in the telescope that were no less than the length of the capital ship, the hearts of Count Si Pei and the others were immediately pinched!

The speed of the three French battleships was so fast, led by the Gambida during the second French armored cruiser detachment, followed by the two armored cruisers Hugo and Ferry, these 13,000-ton battleships were like sharp carbines in the hands of knights, directly picking up the destroyer defenses on the periphery of the German fleet. DOZENS OF 138MM OR 164MM GUNS ON THE SIDE LOCKED ON THE DESTROYERS WHO TRIED TO STOP THEM LIKE THE EYES OF DEMONS IN THE NIGHT, AND A BURST OF FIRE ERUPTED FROM THE MUZZLES, AND THE DENSE SHELLS FORMED A DEATH ZONE AROUND THE FRENCH ARMORED CRUISERS, AND THE TWO GERMAN DESTROYERS WHO COULD NOT EVADE WERE TORN TO PIECES BY THE FURIOUS FIRE IN A FEW MINUTES! Two large fireworks were set off in the night.

And behind these armored knights, a small group of destroyers followed closely behind, rushing through the holes torn by the armored cruisers! These fierce and vicious creatures with sharp blades and pit vipers resisted the German fleet in the distance, which was speeding up and preparing to withdraw! At this moment, the Frenchman played the most threatening counterattack of the night!

"Keep accelerating! Attack the torpedo boats with all the secondary guns, level the main guns and knock out those cruisers! Colonel Mekdol, the captain of the Sultan Osman I, first ordered, looking at the destroyer that was sailing fast several kilometers away, as light as a flying fish, and as deadly as a poisonous snake, the colonel felt a drop of cold sweat rolling down his head, the other side was a bit outnumbered, and it was too close!

THE NIMBLE 88MM ANTI-LIGHTNING CANNON WAS THE FIRST TO AIM AT THE TARGET, AND MORE THAN A DOZEN GUNS FIRED A SERIES OF SHELLS AT THE ERRATIC FIGURE IN THE DISTANCE, RUSHING TOWARDS THE TARGET LIKE A FLYING LOCUST. Together, these guns and machine guns weaved a tight net of fire around the battleship! Columns of water rushed to the sky, and the French destroyer detachment launched an attack formation in a fan-shaped diagonal package towards the German fleet, and this time, the French played all their cards! A whole detachment of two destroyers stabbed at the target like a demon's dagger!

At this moment, whether it is Count Spee or the generals under him, they are really afraid, 12 destroyers, if they are in full fire, it is 40 to 50 torpedoes! At this time, the other German battleships could not control so much, all the battleships were fired at full power, and even the main guns were used to deal with these deadly vipers!

At this critical juncture, the adaptability of the Allied fleet was vividly demonstrated at this moment! The spacing between the battleships quickly widened, and at the same time each unfolded in the opposite direction! And the rest of the destroyers also divided into two teams, one rushed towards the flank of the French destroyer that was lightning striked, while the other team blocked the French armored cruiser with its thin body!

THE SITUATION ON THE BATTLEFIELD BECAME EXTREMELY CHAOTIC IN AN INSTANT, THE FRENCH DESTROYER PLUNGED HEADLONG INTO THE FIRE NET OF THE GERMAN BATTLESHIP, AN UNLUCKY DESTROYER WAS DIRECTLY HIT BY A 350MM MAIN GUN SHELL, THE ENTIRE HULL WAS DIRECTLY REACHED IN TWO SECTIONS, UNDER THE HUGE IMPACT, THE SLENDER BOW LIKE A LONG KNIFE WAS RAISED HIGH, AND THEN IT SANK INTO THE WATER, NEVER FLOATED AGAIN, HALF A CIGARETTE EFFORT, A DESTROYER OF MORE THAN 800 TONS DISAPPEARED.

THE OTHER DESTROYER WAS DIRECTLY "TAKEN CARE OF" BY 3 150MM GUNS AND 2 88MM ANTI-MINE GUNS BECAUSE OF ITS LOCATION. Raindrops of shells fell on the hull of the ship, like a mischievous child tearing down building blocks, and the explosion of the destroyer peeled off the parts on it in large chunks, and gradually turned into a pile of scrap metal in the fire and explosion, and even so, the destroyer still fired two torpedoes at the German battleship when half of the hull was already submerged!

The two sides fired frantically at close range, like countless fireflies flashing in the night. The light of the artillery and the flames of the shell explosion made the nearby sea brighter than daylight. At this moment, double
