Rear Admiral Benjamin, commander of the 2nd Battleship Detachment of the British Navy, commanded three 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships. What made him depressed www.biquge.info was that his 2nd battleship detachment originally had five powerful battleships. But now, there are only three left.

"Damn the Germans, if it weren't for their despicable and shameless sneak attack, our battleships 'War Weyer' and 'Warrior' would not have been badly damaged." Major General Benjamin gritted his teeth at the thought of this. This has reduced the power he commands by 40 percent! Otherwise, in this naval battle, their chances of victory will be much greater.

"General, Your Excellency the Chief of Staff ordered us to rush to the battlefield as soon as possible, they were suppressed by the Germans." A communications officer reported.

Rear Admiral Benjamin couldn't help frowning: "The battle has just begun, and the battle cruiser detachment can't hold on?" The Germans seem to be even stronger than we think! ”

"Order the ships, speed up." Major General Benjamin ordered.

Now that the battlecruisers are in trouble, they have to hurry up to the battlefield. If the battlecruiser formations were defeated, or if the losses were too great, they would not be able to accomplish the intended operational objectives.

Three 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships began to accelerate to the battlefield. It's just that because their previous mission was to attack the flank and rear of the 1st battle cruiser detachment of the German Navy, they had to go around in a big circle. This makes them in the reception of Davy? After Lieutenant General Betty's telegram, it took almost an hour to reach the battlefield. Of course, in the opinion of Major General Benjamin, David? The battle cruiser detachment led by Vice Admiral Betty should have no problem holding out for an hour.

Rear Admiral Benjamin believed that once his fleet arrived on the battlefield, the situation would be reversed. He still has a lot of confidence in the 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleship. Its 381 mm guns were powerful enough to penetrate the armor of the German Navy's battle cruisers.

What Major General Benjamin didn't know, though, was that they weren't the only ones who had reinforcements. The 1st Battlecruiser Detachment of the German Navy also had reinforcements. Six battle cruisers of the 2nd Battleship Detachment of the German Navy were also on their way to the battlefield.

Vice Admiral Hipper, when they had sunk the British Navy's battlecruiser Invincible, also sent a telegram to Vice Admiral Spee, asking him to rush to the battlefield as soon as possible. Of course, Lieutenant General Hipper was not asking for help, but hoped that Lieutenant General Shipper would arrive in time to block the retreat of the British. In this way, they will be able to eat all these battlecruisers of the British in one fell swoop.

Vice Admiral Hippert feared that if they sank more British battlecruisers, the British would flee in disarray. In that case, it will not be conducive to their further expansion of the results.

Vice Admiral Hipper believed that once the 2nd Battle Cruiser Detachment arrived, it would be no problem to encircle and annihilate the Japanese Battle Cruiser Detachment.

"Boom!"

The battlecruiser "Queen Mary" of the British Navy hit the "Prince Frederick" of the German Navy. The 343 mm gun made a direct hit on the No. 1 main turret of the 'Prince Frederick'.

"Hooray, well done!"

David? Lieutenant General Betty happened to see this scene and couldn't help but cheer.

"God bless the British Empire! Take out the battleships of the Germans. The other officers on the battlecruiser Tiger also cheered.

Soon, though, their smiles all froze on their faces.

Because, when the smoke cleared, the German Navy's battlecruiser "Prince Frederick" was completely unharmed.

"Damn, what's going on? How is it possible that our shells did not penetrate the turrets of the battleships of the Germans? A British naval officer exclaimed.

"Oh God! How does this work? ”

David? The expression on Lieutenant General Betty's face also became gloomy. Even if their shells hit their targets, they could not do any damage. In this case, there is no way for them to continue fighting! It won't be long before their ships are sunk one after the other.

When the 'Prince Frederick' was hit, Vice Admiral Hippert was also shocked. This is their main battleship, and if it is severely damaged or even sunk because of this, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Although, the top brass of the German Navy knew that in a decisive battle with the British Navy, they would certainly not lose a single battleship. However, in order to deal with other potential enemies, the German Navy still hoped to lose as few warships as possible. In that way, the German Navy would be able to maintain its strength against other enemies.

"General, the No. 1 turret of the 'Prince Frederick' was hit, but it was not penetrated. But the huge explosion still shook the gunner inside to death. An officer reported to Lieutenant General Hipper.

Only then did Lieutenant General Hipper relent.

Immediately after, ten minutes later, the German Navy's 'von? Morality? Together, HMS Tann and HMS Leopold sank HMS Indomitable, a battlecruiser of the British Royal Navy, bringing the British Navy's losses to two.

Of course, this is also because the 'Indomitable' battlecruiser is also one of the 'Invincible-class' battlecruisers, and its defense is too bad. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been sunk so easily.

Two battle cruisers were sunk one after another, giving the German Navy the advantage of the 1st battle cruiser formation even greater. Vice Admiral Hipper even ordered three 'Blucher-class' battlecruisers to besiege the British Navy's 'New Zealand' battlecruiser in an effort to further extend their lead.

"Oh God! General Benjamin: How long will it take for them to arrive? We're going to run out of it! "David? Lieutenant General Betty was very anxious.

The strength of the German navy made him even more worried about the future.

Just, David? Lieutenant General Betty soon knew that the reinforcements he was expecting would not come at all.

The 2nd Battleship Detachment of the British Navy, on its way to the battlefield, encountered the 2nd Battlecruiser Detachment of the German Navy. Without saying a word, Vice Admiral Spee immediately ordered the 2nd Battlecruiser Detachment to launch a siege on the 2nd Battleship Detachment of the British Navy. With six battlecruisers against the British three battleships, this was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity.
