From the point of view of the situation, because of the bold and decisive actions of Admiral Georgesleg, the entire Italian-Austrian fleet fell into passivity, but in the eyes of Count Spee and Tycho and others, all this was nothing more than a fantasy, and the French could only overdraw almost all their strength in exchange for the sinking of one battleship and the heavy loss of one, while the strength of the French fleet was quickly depleted in this exchange. In terms of total tonnage, the French fleet was no less than the Ito-Austrian fleet. Both sides have their own advantages, the French fleet's chance of victory lies in using auxiliary warships to destroy the opponent's capital ships, because whether it is a patrol or a former dreadnought, these warships are relatively easy to lose, while the Italian-Austrian fleet must resist the crazy wave of the French, and hold on, using the advantage of the capital ships can slowly kill the French fleet, and if it can't be carried, then it's all over!

From now on, it seems that the French have achieved their goal, but by this time, Tycho has keenly sensed that the other party's attack has begun to weaken! It is true that the dreadnought fleet of Italy and Austria is on the verge of collapse, but is the French fleet all tailed? Apparently not! In addition to two Dandong-class battleships. The remaining 4 Dreadnoughts were also seriously injured, and the French Dreadnoughts who fired at the Dante-class No. 3 ship were actually out of disadvantage, not because of the firepower, and the armor could not resist the Dante-class battleships with the change of gun. As for the patrol? The 3 French cruisers that were pitted against the 6 French armored cruisers of the PISA type did not actually take advantage of it. Of course, the Garibaldi in the back was killed by the French and abandoned .......

"When all the miscellaneous fish is cleaned up, it is still us who will decide the outcome of the war!" When an Italian officer made a proposal to retreat. Tycho pointed to the battleship beneath his feet! At this time, the battle is no longer simply a battle of strength, but also a contest of wills! The French bet that Austria-Hungary would not be able to withstand huge losses and withdraw from the battle, and what about Tycho? I really don't have much confidence in the Austro-Hungarian fleet! Now Tycho's heart is beating a drum. Austria-Hungary was hostile to the Italians, and Italy didn't want to trap Austria-Hungary?

"The Austrian fleet will fight to the last moment!" Just then, an intelligence officer sent a telegram to Tycho. Although the above words were brief, they made Tycho feel a long-lost tacit understanding, and he believed that it was definitely not the Haldi who sent it, but the Count Spee standing behind him, and this was not only the reason why the Count of Spee was on his side at the most critical moment. It was also because he felt that the Count of Spee had also affirmed his thoughts, that is, the French fleet had reached the end of its power. When they reach their peak, they will be greeted by an endless abyss. When the Italian-Austrian fleet decided to continue fighting, if the French gave up the Lone Pull at this time and led the team to evacuate, the final result would be the loss of two dreadnoughts in exchange for the sinking of one dreadnought of the other side and heavy damage, although it was lost. But it can only be regarded as a small defeat. The main force remains.

And at this critical moment, Georges Legge seemed to be a little hesitant, or a little ambitious, when he saw that the Austro-Hungarian fleet was heavily damaged, and then looked at the French fleet that had almost broken through the dreadnought fleet in front of Italy, he decided to continue the battle! Tycho wanted to finish the battle, so why wasn't George Leger? And now he sees an "opportunity". Although this opportunity may be nothing more than a phantom.

Now that the Austro-Hungarian fleet continues to fight, Tycho can now draw 3 super-dreadnoughts to attack those annoying ex-dreadnoughts. The French are almost there, and now there are only 6 ships that can be hit. He drew out 7 warships to shoot at the opponent's dreadnoughts, and then commanded three super dreadnoughts to quickly clean up the French quasi-dreadnoughts, then he successfully locked the victory. It may seem tough, but the dawn is coming!

"Target 8500 meters, salvo begins!" The Caraccino slowly turned its four turrets, he had given up on the attack on the Lone, the little things of the French had annoyed it, and Tycho now wanted to give the ships that were behind the times a taste of the Italian Navy's highest-end combat power! The long-term engagement has exhausted the Italian-Austrian dreadnought fleet, many warships have been unable to keep up with the formation, or the wounded have been unable to continue the battle, the fleet responsible for interception has been beaten to the ground, and when Tycho pulled out the three super dreadnoughts, there is no longer a need for auxiliary warships to delay time, and now the French dreadnoughts will face the most terrifying blow!

"Damn, they're targeting us!" The flat fire of the 14-inch guns shocked the French former dreadnought, which had just repelled the Italian and Austrian dreadnoughts! At this time, they were greeted not by the Italian fleet, but by the opponent's more than 20 14-inch guns, 8 less than 10, the distance in front is the best distance for the high-speed light bullets fired by the 14-inch guns, the trajectory is very straight, the distance is close, and the disadvantage of poor storage speed is also covered. Whether it is the Dandong-class quasi-dreadnought 11-inch armor or the 8-inch armor of the French armored cruiser, there is almost no difference in the face of the attack of 14-inch heavy guns, and there is no negotiation to penetrate it!

A slightly higher French battleship, the Just, was attacked by the Caraccino at the first time, and in this salvo Caraccino actually hit 4 shots! 40% hit rate in one salvo! Almost instantly, 4 huge fireballs exploded on the hull, and the shock wave generated by the explosion swept across the hull, and streams of water vapor and smoke and flames poured out from the breach, and the battleship, which was already seriously injured, quickly tilted after being shot by concentrated fire! In particular, the front of the hull, the bow armor belt, which had been blown into a sieve by various artillery, was once again hit by 2 shells.

"POOR FELLOW, HIS BOW IS ALMOST TWISTED BY A PAIR OF LARGE HANDS, THE BOW COMPARTMENT MUST BE COMPLETELY BROKEN, THE FORWARD TURRET IS ALMOST UNDER THE WATER, AND THE TWO AMIDSHIPS 240MM TURRETS ARE ALSO UNABLE TO SHOOT BECAUSE OF THE ANGLE. What's even more tragic is that its servos seem to have a problem, although it has not yet sunk, but the result of the sinking cannot be changed. ”

And the destruction of the Justice is just the beginning, and the 3 super dreadnoughts that are free to attack three French quasi-dreadnought warships are simply a replica of the naval battle of the Hulk beating toddlers in the 1st war version! Don't say that after a long battle, the French fleet has already suffered heavy casualties, even if nothing happens, you can't beat the super dreadnought! It's only ten minutes! The French fleet that had beaten the dreadnought fleet in front of Italy and Austria just now collapsed under the attack of three super dreadnoughts!

The Liberty and the Constitution quickly followed in the footsteps of the Justice, and in just a few minutes, the Liberty was paralyzed, and then the Constitution was also killed because a 14-inch cannon pierced the gun mount and ignited the shells and propellants in the dressing room, and slowly sank to the bottom of the sea under a huge mushroom cloud, 3 of the 6 French dreadnoughts were knocked out in an instant, and the armored cruiser was also knocked out 2 by the Italian-Austrian dreadnoughts that came back, and the situation on the battlefield was turned over in a very short time, A total of 12 former dreadnought battleships and mounted cruisers plus the battle ahead, 7 have already been lost! Among them, there were only 3 former dreadnought battleships left, and only 2 were mounted cruisers, and all of them were seriously wounded.

One might ask, what was George-Leger's fleet doing when the three Caracionot-class super-dreadnoughts were violently beating the French fleet? Could it be that the strongest fleets are playing soy sauce? George Legge swore that he and his fleet really did their best! They are now resisting the attack of the remaining 7 Italian dreadnoughts! Although the Taghoff was heavily damaged, the remaining 3 super dreadnoughts and 3 Cavour-type dreadnoughts were still pouring bullets on the French fleet, and the Lone Pull was almost abolished with all its main gun firepower, and in fact, there were only 6 French dreadnoughts left that were still fighting power! And the situation of the 2 Dandong-type dreadnoughts is also very worrying! After all, the Dandong type can't beat the Cavour-type battleship that catches it right!

"It's time to go!" Looking at the explosions and flames that continued to sound in the distance, the last trace of luck in George Leger's heart disappeared with the collapse of the former dreadnought fleet. The time that the former dreadnought fleet can only be exchanged for can only be calculated in minutes. Even if you count the last wave of torpedo boats and destroyers, I'm afraid there won't be much time,

"Prepare to transfer the crew on the Lone, we abandon the Lone, and the fleet will evacuate at full speed." George Legge ordered. At this time, his decision was very decisive, that is, to give up all bottles and cans and leave here. However, is it a little late to leave at this time?

The French dreadnought fleet collapsed faster than Georges Legge expected, and in the face of the Italian fleet that had returned its guns to aim at him, Georges Legge finally felt the danger of destruction! And after gritting his teeth and sending the last auxiliary fleet - the destroyer and torpedo boat brigades of the French Navy. George Legge ordered the fleet to release smoke and evacuate at full speed!

"Just follow them, it's not a vast ocean, it's a narrow Mediterranean bath." Tycho looked at the French fleet spewing smoke like a squid, and he knew that he had won in the end, the only difference was that he might win more or less! The courage of the French was vividly displayed in an existential situation, and they took on almost all the firepower of the Italian-Austrian fleet! Hundreds of guns of various calibers spewed a rain of bullets swept in like a storm, and more than a dozen destroyers and torpedo boats moved forward on the sea covered with water columns.

From time to time, there were several loud noises, which were due to the explosion caused by the detonation of the torpedo, and most of the French destroyers did not even have the last wail when they were killed, and they were directly smashed to pieces by various shells, or sank to the bottom of the sea because of the serious flooding. Destroyers are not protected by armor, and even a near-miss of a medium-caliber gun can cause hull damage and water ingress. Soon, a whole destroyer fleet disappeared from the sequence of battles of the French Navy!
