"God bless the British Empire! The final victory must belong to the British Empire! "The officers and men of the British Navy cheered when they saw the battleship 'East Prussia' sunk. Among them, Davy, who had been abused by the German Navy before. Lieutenant General Betty cheered with great cheer. He was devastated by the almost total annihilation of the British Navy's battle cruiser squadron. If the Home Fleet can avenge him, perhaps in the event of a great victory, the Admiralty will not hold him accountable.

The German Navy, on the other hand, was silent. The sinking of the battleship 'East Prussia' further widened the gap between the German Navy and the British Navy, which would have a very negative impact on the battle commanded by the German Navy. After the battleship "Hercules" sank the battleship "East Prussia", he began to cooperate with the "Giant" to besiege the "Rhine", which made the situation of the "Rhine" greatly unfavorable.

"General, the 'East Prussia' has sunk, and half of the 845 officers and men on board have been killed!" A communications officer paid a letter to Reinhardt. Admiral Scheer reported.

"How was the 'East Prussia' sunk?" Reinhart. Admiral Scheer asked. The "East Prussia" battleship is one of the four "Helgolan-class" battleships built by China, and it is based on the "Qin-class" battleships of the Chinese Navy. If it weren't for the fact that it was impossible for China to deliberately frame Germany, Reinhardt . Admiral Schell would have thought that the Chinese shipyards had cut corners in the construction of the East Prussia.

"General, a near-miss bullet tore through the underwater armor of the 'East Prussia'. As a result, the 'East Prussia' was flooded too much and sank into the sea! "The communications officer reported. These were all reported by a light cruiser next to the 'East Prussia'.

"I see, order the ships to intensify the offensive and avenge the 'East Prussia'!" Reinhart. Admiral Scheer said. The threat of a near-miss is far greater than being actually hit. The battleship 'East Prussia' was sunk because of a near-miss, which is also understandable, and it can only be said that the battleship 'East Prussia' was too unlucky. Other than that, there is no other explanation.

At 7:15 p.m., the battleship "Württemberg" was considered to have avenged the battleship "East Prussia". In this round of volleys. The battleship 'Agincot' of the British Navy was hit by a 381-mm armor-piercing projectile. The shell hit the bridge, and the commander of the armor that pierced the bridge killed all the British naval officers inside. And, two minutes later, during the shelling, the battleship "Aginkot" was again hit by the battleship "Württemberg". This time, the battleship "Württemberg" seemed to be blessed by God. Two of the eight shells hit the battleship 'Aginkot', and both hit the stern. A shell blew off the stern of the Aginkot, and even the steering gear was blown up. The other tore open the underwater armor at the stern. When the battleships of the British Navy were built, the watertight compartments were not paid much attention to by the German Navy, which caused the sea water to pour into the command from the stern of the ship, and the damage management personnel on the battleship 'Aginkot' could not do anything about it. The captain had to give the order to abandon the ship. Command for a few minutes. The battleship sank to the bottom of the sea. Compared to the battleship 'East Prussia', the British Navy's 'Iron Duke-class' battleship was sunk, and the losses were undoubtedly much greater.

At 7:16 p.m., the battleship 'Rhineland' of the German Navy was hit. After the main gun was destroyed. At the same time, the British Navy's 'Magnificent' was heavily damaged and had to withdraw from the battle.

As night drew on, the naval battle became more intense. Both the German fleet and the British fleet. They all want to defeat each other before night comes, lest night fall. Will let the other person escape because of the impact on their line of sight.

At 7:18, the battleship "Thuringia" of the German Navy was sunk, and an armor-piercing shell blew up the front main gun of the "Thuringia". Fatally, there were two 305-mm armor-piercing shells and hundreds of kilograms of propellant in the front main gun. A martyrdom command broke out, and the fire spread to the ammunition depot under the turret. As a result, dozens of shells in the ammunition depot were detonated. In a violent explosion, the first half of the Thuringian was completely blown up and sank to the bottom of the sea in less than twenty seconds.

At 7:19, the battleship 'Bremen' of the German Navy was heavily damaged and had to withdraw from the battle line and return to Germany for repairs under the protection of two destroyers. The German fleet was hit one after another, which boosted the morale of the British Navy. But then, the British Navy realized what was going on and it went viral.

At 7:20, the battleship "Avantgarde" of the British Navy was sunk, and an armor-piercing shell pierced the armor near the waterline of the battleship "Avantgarde", blowing a large hole. There was nothing the damage could be done, and it wasn't long before the battleship capsized on the sea, leaving a huge swirling socket. Let the other battleships behind the battle line dodge one after another, causing confusion in the battle line.

Two minutes into the command, the British Navy's battleship 'Collingwood' was hit, and the boiler compartment was hit by shells, causing steam leaks in several boilers. The hot steam leaked out and killed dozens of British sailors in the boiler room. At the same time, the speed of the battleship 'Avant-garde' plummeted. Although the battleship was not fatally hit, it could no longer continue to fight with the battle line when its speed fell. John. Admiral Jericho then ordered the battleship to return to its shipyard on the British mainland for repairs.

At the end of the battle line of the German Navy, there were several battle cruisers. In a duel with the battleships of the British Navy, they were at a complete disadvantage. Although, they participated in the decisive battle and shared the pressure on the battleships in front, but at the same time put themselves in a dangerous situation. The armor of the battlecruiser was simply not able to withstand the main artillery shells of the battleship, and once it was hit, it often suffered a wound in the eye, had to withdraw from the battle, or even was directly sunk. The speed advantage of the battlecruiser could not be brought into play at this moment.

At 7:25 a.m., the German Navy's battle cruiser Moltke was heavily damaged and had to withdraw from the battle. Only a minute later, the battlecruiser 'Lützov' was sunk. The aircraft, which had played a significant role in the previous battlecruiser duel, was hit by two 305mm shots. One hit the bow of the battlecruiser "Lützov" and blew a large hole in the deck of the bow, and the other hit the waterline of the amidships, directly killing the "Lützov". However, the counterattack of the battlecruiser "Lützov" before his death also caused heavy damage to the battleship "Reckless" of the British Navy and had to withdraw from the battle.

The duel between the capital ships of the German fleet and the British fleet has been going on for almost an hour now. However, there is not much difference in the losses paid by the two sides. Two battleships of the German Navy were sunk, one was heavily damaged, one more was sunk, one was heavily damaged, and five capital ships were lost. In the British Navy, two battleships were sunk and three battleships were heavily damaged. The losses on both sides were roughly equal, except that in reality the losses of the German Navy were slightly greater. After all, the battleship can continue to be put into use after being repaired, and the battleship after the sinking can be completely lost.

But even then, the commander of the Home Fleet of the British Navy, John Brown. Admiral Jericho is still not satisfied with the current situation of the war. Although Germany still had four powerful 'Bavarian-class' battleships, the British Navy had a numerical advantage. But the British Navy was still unable to gain an advantage, but was faintly suppressed. If this continues, it will be impossible to defeat the German Navy.

"How long before the Sixth Battlefleet can join the battlefield?" On the battleship 'Iron Duke', John . Admiral Jericho asked.

"General, Vice Admiral Root has called that the Sixth Battlefleet is about to arrive on the battlefield. Lieutenant General Root asked if they would rush back to join the battle line? The communications officer replied.

"Yes, let the 6th Battlefleet join the battle line from behind and give priority to striking at the battleships at the rear of the battle line of the German fleet!" John. Admiral Jericho thought about it for a moment, and then gave the order. Although several 'Iron Duke-class' battleships were in danger under the blows of the German Navy's 'Bavaria-class' battleships, they seemed to be able to hold out. The most powerful 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships could be used against several battlecruisers and battleships behind the German Navy's battle line.

When the five 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships of the British Navy appeared on the battlefield, the German Navy was completely stunned. The 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleship's hull, which is no smaller than that of the 'Bavaria-class' battleship, and the thick barrels of the main guns, all show the formidable power of this battleship. Most of the officers and men of the British Navy were also unaware that the 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships were already in service. However, when they saw the 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships flying the British Navy flag joining the command of the battle line, they immediately cheered. With the addition of these five powerful battleships, it can undoubtedly fundamentally change the current battlefield situation, so that the British Navy once again occupies an absolute advantage. And the German Navy, on the contrary, was at a disadvantage of Yanzhòng!
