Two Siam-class battleships, six Mexican-class battleships, and two Yamato-class battleships, with a total tonnage of more than 450,000 tons, although they are no longer the main combat units of the Datang Navy, they are still the ultimate symbol of the Datang Navy in the minds of many people.

Time flies, and the battleships of the Datang Navy in this world war actually only played a role in luring the enemy into the early stage, and now doing the finishing touches. The combat power of these warships is not expected, and each battleship itself requires thousands of naval officers and sailors to operate, so this naval battle is destined to become a unique chapter of the battleships of the Tang Navy.

These battleships did not need to form any battle line at all, because they would not exchange firepower with the other side to shell, in fact, their combat was relatively easy, that is, when the German Navy's battleships were already incapacitated, they used their own main guns with extremely sophisticated fire control, to send these German battleships to the bottom of the sea.

After all, at this time, it was most economical to do such finishing work with the main guns of a battleship. Large-caliber artillery shells are less than one percent of the cost of an anti-ship missile, which is a super cost-effective thing.

The 460 mm main guns of the Yamato-class battleships were also the first cry on the battlefield. The two super battleships, the Yamato and the Korea, picked on the German battleships Marens Leader and Germanic Ambition as their respective opponents. In fact, even if the two German battleships were in good condition, they would not be the opponents of the Yamato-class battleships, with a displacement of as much as 20,000 tons, and the caliber of the main guns was far behind that of the Yamato-class, not to mention that the Yamato-class was also equipped with various advanced and complex avionics equipment, which could make its combat a leap.

Precision fire control is actually very effective in improving warships such as battleships, and the first shelling of the Yamato-class is not a school shot at all, but a direct attack on the enemy ship. Nine highly accurate heavy shells fired directly at the Marnes Leader, seven of which hit directly, and only two of them missed.

The hit of the seven guns directly caused the already battered Marnes Leader to completely sink into a state of sinking, but by the time the Marnes Leader sank, the commander of the German naval fleet, Haier Lansing, had already transferred from this flagship to other ships.

Haier Lansing no longer had the courage to fight again, and in fact, the most German sailors did now was not to fight back, but to save their lives. They are desperately trying to manage the damage in an attempt to stop the sinking of their warship, and on the other hand, they are rescuing their comrades who have fallen overboard, only that they may soon have to join the ranks of survival themselves.

Haier Lansing gritted his teeth and made the last decision to command the operation today, and it can even be said that the first substantive decision was to raise the white flag and surrender to the Tang Navy.

In fact, from the beginning of the anti-ship missile attack, Haierlansing had already understood that this battle was a battle with a predestined outcome, and the German Navy had no means to turn defeat into victory, and the British, the allies on whom the Germans had high hopes at the beginning, did not know where at this time at all.

The Datang Navy did not lose a single warship or aircraft from beginning to end, but it was able to completely destroy the German naval fleet, Haier Lansing couldn't help but laugh at himself when he thought of this. The father of the nation who called the shots in Hamburg didn't know what a stupid decision he had made. Choosing to turn against his big brother, he joined the camp of the Europeans and led Germany into a war. Most of everything that Germany has accumulated since its independence has been given by the Tang people. It cannot be said that the Germans did not fight for it themselves, but without the Dons, Germany would not exist.

And now, with the destruction of the German Grand Fleet, although Germany can still continue to deal with the Tang Army on land, how long it can maneuver, Haier Lansing is very pessimistic. Datang has not yet exerted its full strength, assuming that the Datang Army, like the Navy and Air Force, has a huge number of secret weapons, then there is little need for this war to continue.

However, it doesn't matter what Haier Lansing thinks about himself, he will become a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty and will not be able to return to Germany until the end of the war, and what Germany was like at that time, Haier Lansing didn't dare to think.

When the Germans were in a hurry to find the white flag, the battleships of the Datang Navy, and even some other cruisers and frigates, were bombarding these German battleships with their main guns, and at this time, the German battleships were not free to attack any of the Datang Navy warships, and the attack was a simple one-sided attack.

The German battleships were where the fire was concentrated, and the two Marens Leader-class battleships with a displacement of 50,000 tons had basically sunk most of the ships under the water after eating more than 20 rounds of the main guns of the Datang battleships. The Datang warships continued to look for other targets, and most of the German heavy cruisers were also damaged in the previous missile attacks, and at this time, they were also unable to parry the heavy shelling of the Datang Navy, and some ships were sunk one after another.

When the Tang saw the white flag on the burning German battleship, they still stopped the shelling very well. The Datang Navy sent a message, asking all German sailors to get off the ship and wait in lifeboats. If there were not enough lifeboats, the Datang Navy would send small boats to detain German officers and soldiers.

Lin Huansheng also did not consider the possibility that this was a fraudulent surrender by the Germans, because there would be no benefit in the slightest from fraudulent surrender, once they acted rashly, the Tang Navy could easily tear them apart and turn the battleship into a pile of scrap metal that was about to sink to the bottom of the sea.

More than 13,000 German naval officers and men were killed or wounded, more than 800 wounded, and the remaining 15,000 German naval officers and men, including the fleet commander Haierlansing, were taken prisoner.

The Tang people had no interest in receiving the German ships that had been beaten to tatters by themselves, so after all the people on board were withdrawn, several battleships of the Tang Navy sank all these German naval ships that could still float and sent them to the bottom of the sea.

This scene was witnessed by many German officers and soldiers, and some of them showed deep sorrow, after all, this huge fleet, which had been painstakingly built by the Germans, was now destroyed in one fell swoop; Others are completely insensitive, fighting with the Datang Navy is really one of the most dangerous things a person encounters in life, and it is already great luck to be able to get away with saving a life.

After completely defeating the German decisive fleet, the Tang Navy could not be relaxed, because they would have to face a much stronger opponent in terms of scale and strength, the British Royal Navy. However, in Lin Huansheng's plan, the Fourth Task Force is no longer the main combat force facing the British Royal Navy next. (To be continued.) )
