Even the battleship with the strongest armor protection cannot be exhaustive, let alone this pocket version, although even if the superstructure is completely destroyed, it will not cause the warship to sink, but if it is seriously injured, it will have a huge impact on the speed of the warship, and this pocket battleship with the main mission of breaking diplomatic relations in the ocean once it loses the maximum speed of 29 knots, it is easy for the Royal Navy to clean it up, although there are few new battleships with high speed in the country, but there are many old battleships with slower speeds

After changing the combat strategy, the British fleet really achieved certain results, and the superstructure was heavily bombarded by the "Graff. The pocket battleship Admiral Spee suffered more than 100 casualties, and its speed began to decline. But the three British warships were already wounded, and naturally they could not withstand the "Graff. The heavy bombardment of 6 large-caliber main guns and 8 secondary guns on the pocket battleship "Admiral Spee", the most wounded and flagship "Exeter" sank first into the sea in the 11th minute after the battle began

After the sinking of the flagship, the remaining two British light cruisers lost their unified command, and although these two light cruisers are considered big guys in their class, they are still only light cruisers after all, and after the continuous hits of the 280mm D-type shells specially designed for their characteristics, the "Ajax" and "Achilles" light cruisers soon followed in the footsteps of the flagship.

Unlike his subordinates, who cheered for victory, Captain Langesdorff's brow tightened, and the battle was unexpectedly won, and it was a 3-0 victory. But "Graff. The superstructure of the pocket battleship Admiral Spee was also severely damaged, with only two of the eight secondary guns remaining available, more than 200 officers and men were killed and wounded, and some posts even had to keep the wounded on their jobs. What's worse is that "Graff. The maximum speed of the "Admiral Spee" dropped to 24 knots, and it can be said that although the British lost three cruisers, their purpose was basically achieved

While deeply impressed by the courage and sacrifice of his British counterpart, Captain Langesdorff, who knew the danger, could no longer care about his gentlemanly demeanor, and hurriedly ordered to leave the battlefield immediately, but within a few days. The speed of the "Graff. The "Admiral Spee" was again overtaken by a fleet of British.

After a fierce battle. The British warship was forced to retreat with one sinking and two wounded, and the one that was seriously injured on the way could not be saved and sank to the bottom of the sea. The pocket battleship "Admiral Spee" had already lost half of its diesel engines, and its maximum speed had dropped to less than 18 knots. That is to say. Even if you run into the old battleships of the British. "Graff. The pocket battleship "Admiral Spee" will not be able to escape

Whatever they were afraid of came to them, and within a few days, a large fleet led by the battleship HMS Malaya (Queen Elizabeth class) of the British Royal Navy caught up with them. In order to save shells, and in order to find out the jishu secrets on the pocket battleship, the British sent a telegram demanding that "Graff. "Admiral Spee" immediately surrendered.

The German officers and sailors on the ship knew that armor, shells, and radars must not fall into the hands of the British, and Captain Langesdorff, who had just been promoted to rear admiral by Berlin, naturally knew better, but in order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, he still decided to accept the persuasion of the British, but it was only the people on the warship who surrendered, and the warship would sink with him in this sea far from his homeland

At this time, a young officer on the ship jumped out to object, "We can still fight, weishenme wants to surrender?" And what about battleships? Our C-type shells have super armor-piercing capabilities, and as long as the distance is shortened to within 20,000 meters, the armor of the battleship can be pierced! ”

Captain Langesdorff looked at the officer named Hank with some disgust, Hank was a fanatical Nazi, and he was very different from his traditional naval officer in all aspects, and now seeing Hank jump out and dance his teeth and claws like a clown, Captain Langesdorff snorted coldly, "Even if it can penetrate the armor of the enemy ship, but how powerful can it be with a mere 280mm caliber, how can it be possible to sink such a large battleship?" And our warship will be finished as long as it is hit by a 15-inch shell from an enemy ship, not to mention that the enemy has a total of 7 warships, and he will not win in any case, weishenme wants everyone to die in vain? ”

Hank stiffened his neck and shouted, "As long as we can kill and injure even one British, our sacrifice will not be in vain!" As long as we can consume even one shell of the British, our sacrifice will not be in vain! Even if we all die, as long as our comrades-in-arms can achieve the victory of Zuihou, our sacrifice will not be in vain! ”

"Y-Where do you still look like a naval officer?" , the angry Captain Langesdorff pointed at Hank and reprimanded.

"The Chinese's navy is as dirty as the army, but they can defeat the strong with the weak, so that the British dare not send large warships to the Far East; And you, your graceful and personable Rear Admiral, are now thinking of surrendering! I would rather die without grace, in a pool of blood and mud like my comrades in the army, and even the corpse is unrecognizable after the war, rather than surrender in a clean line like the old-timers of the First World War! Hank undaunted, bull said.

Listening to Hank talk about the Chinese Navy, Rear Admiral Langesdorf's original expression of disdain and disgust finally changed significantly, they orthodox German Navy has always been difficult to understand how the Chinese Navy has such a little strength, how to fight the invincible British Royal Navy, but now Hank, who has been to China as an instructor, seems to say the root of their strength, soldiers are willing to sacrifice everything for their country, not only their lives, but even the most important honor for soldiers, It's unimaginable

"All ready to fight!" Rear Admiral Langesdorff finally decided to leave behind his most cherished military honor and sacrifice everything for Germany. And once he had abandoned his principles, the experienced admiral was clearly more cunning than his men, and he had come up with a trick that was completely out of character with the Germans, who had always been stereotyped and the tradition of honor in Western navies, and who had been deceived (to be continued...... to be continued)
