"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The battleship "Bavaria" of the German Navy, was the first to fire. Three triple 380mm guns of 50 times the caliber smashed shells weighing up to one ton at the flagship battleship 'Revenge' of the Combined Fleet.

The other German warships also opened fire.

For a while, the cannon roared on the sea, and one after another, under the action of huge kinetic energy, smashed into the enemy's battleship. The shells fell into the sea, splashing huge columns of water. The water splashed down and crackled, as if the entire sea was boiling.

In another battleground, the 2nd Battleline of the German Navy and the 2nd Battleline of the Combined Fleet, an exchange of fire also began. 11 battleships of the German Navy against the 11 battleships purchased by the British from the United States. The battleship Arkansas was sunk by German naval carrier-based aircraft, so only 11 remained.

Although, the number is the same on both sides. However, judging by the performance of the warships, there is no doubt that the German Navy will have an advantage. The British Navy's two 'Nevada-class' battleships and two 'New York-class' battleships were armed with 356mm guns, while the rest of the ships were armed with 305mm guns. The three 'Kaiser-class' battleships and four 'Helgoland-class' battleships of the German Navy were armed with 343 mm guns. Only four 'Nassau-class' battleships were armed with 305 mm guns. The German Navy's 50-caliber 343-mm guns are not weaker than the US Navy's 45-caliber 356-mm guns, and even have stronger armor-piercing capabilities.

Among the remaining battleships of the British Navy, except for the 'Wyoming-class' battleships, which were armed with 305 mm guns of 50 times the calibre, the rest were equipped with 305 mm guns of 45 times the calibre. The four 'Nassau-class' battleships of the German Navy were all equipped with 305mm guns of 50 times the caliber.

In terms of defense, the defense of the 'Nevada-class' battleships is indeed very strong. But the defense of those battleships of the German Navy was not weak either. It's just that, with the exception of the 'Nevada-class' battleships, the rest of the battleships are not very well defended.

Therefore, in terms of performance in all aspects, the performance of the German Navy is undoubtedly better. It also has a greater advantage in naval battles.

Of course, this did not mean that the German Navy would win the naval battle. After all, there are too many factors that determine the victory or defeat of the sea. Occupancy performance is just one of them.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

At a distance of 13,000 kilometers, the battleships of both sides opened heavy fire. One after another, the cannonballs whistled and smashed into the opposing battleship. The cannon rumbled, as if it were thunder.

The battle cruiser formation of the German Navy was still making a detour. 11 battle cruisers, forming a long battle line. Their speed has been increased to 25 knots.

"General, the main fleet is already fighting with the British. His Excellency the Commander ordered us, in cooperation with the 2nd Front, to give priority to the destruction of those battleships that the British had purchased from the United States! "The staff officer reported to Doau.

Lieutenant General Spee nodded: "The British didn't run away, and they dared to fight us." Obviously, they thought they could crush our main force before we arrived. Don't really know John? Where did General Jericho get his confidence. ”

"How long do we have to get to the battlefield?" Lieutenant General Spee asked.

"General, at the present rate, it is expected that in an hour or so, he will be able to appear exactly in front of the 2nd line of the British. If the timing is right, we can even grab the T-prefix. The officer said.

"Very well, then do it! An hour later, cooperate with General Hipper to take out those American warships. Then he rushed to cooperate with His Excellency the Commander, and disposed of all the remaining warships of the British, French, and Italians. In this battle, it must not be possible to let the British leave with a single capital ship. You'll have to sink them all! Lieutenant General Spee said.

If they can sink all the capital ships of the Combined Fleet in this battle, then they will solve all the problems once and for all. The German Navy will truly dominate the world, and even if all the navies of the rest of the world are combined, they will not be an opponent of the German Navy. The German Navy will be far stronger than it was when the Royal Navy of the British Empire dominated the world.

Of course, Vice Admiral Spee is very confident in winning this naval battle. The German Navy had an absolute superiority not only in the number of capital ships. In terms of the performance of the warship, it is also the capital ship of the German Navy that has the advantage. What's more, the German Navy also has aircraft carriers to help in the war. It won't be long before carrier-based aircraft will be able to continue their attacks. When the time comes, it will be enough for the combined fleet to pay an even greater price again.

In Vice Admiral Spee's view, this operation of the Combined Fleet was simply a death sentence. It was a fool's folly for them to send so many naval officers and men to their deaths for the slightest hope of victory.

The battle was almost at its climax from the start, and neither side was willing to let go of this rare opportunity and wanted to win. So, they are all trying their best to defeat the enemy.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Around the battleship 'King Albert', a high column of water was constantly splashing. Three 'Normandy-class' battleships of the French Navy were firing heavily on them. The 'Normandy-class' battleships were armed with four triple 45-caliber 340 mm guns, although their performance was far inferior to the German Navy's 50 times caliber 343 mm guns. But the victory lies in the large number of main guns. The three 'Normandy-class' battleships were 36 340 mm guns. It was four times the main gun of the battleship King Albert.

The battleship 'Regent Louitpold' was much less stressful. The battleship "Brittany" was armed with five twin 45-caliber 305 mm guns. Although the battleship had six 45-caliber 305 mm guns, only five of them were capable of firing on the same side. The French Navy's 45 times caliber 305 mm guns were difficult to tear through the armor of the battleship "Louitpold Regent", but the 50 times caliber 343 mm guns of the battleship "Louitpold Regent" could easily tear through the armor of the French Navy's battleships.

Of course, because of the siege, the battleships "King Albert" and "Regent Louitpold" were in danger. But in reality, they are just as capable of inflicting fatal blows on the enemy.
