Chapter 82: The Battle at Sea (Part II)
To tell the truth, although Shen Lang had predicted the sinking of Hood, watching a huge ship of more than 40,000 tons was caused by a big explosion, it quickly broke off and sank to the bottom of the sea, and the huge hull brought a huge whirlpool, which would make all the people who fell into the water within the range unable to escape and be dragged into the icy seabed.
The desperate faces of the sailors were clearly visible in the good sight of the ship man, and their shouts could be heard.
Pathetic?
It's pathetic!
But who will pity the Oriental Pearl of later generations?
The flagship of the Home Fleet, the symbol of the Royal Navy for twenty years, although it is not BIG7, but it is far more famous than the Nelson and the Rodney, and it is still like Shen Lang's own time and space, which was sunk by the Bismarck, what a beautiful landscape!
Princess Audrey stood beside Shen Lang, inexplicably feeling a little cold, she glanced at the ship man timidly, and found that his face was as heavy as water, and his expression was terrifyingly cold.
A small hand grabbed Shen Lang's right hand, "Lieutenant General Huo Lan is a good man, I still remember seeing him at the ball, he is a real gentleman, a nobleman." We're going to win, aren't we? ”
Shen Lang was silent.
In fact, he can save the Hood, as long as he gives full play to the full combat effectiveness of the Prince of Wales, attracts German fire, and shifts the target of the fire from the Hood to his side, anyway, this naval battle does not exist in the original timeline, so it doesn't matter how I mess around, does it?
Oh, why!
All I have to do is help you with your prestige, my princess!
Once again, he entered Audrey's body.
The whole fleet broadcast: "I am Audrey Ross, the second in line to the throne of the House of Windsor, my ship is now taking over as the flagship, and I will lead the charge, above!" ”
The captains of the ships all looked at each other, and some of them were even angry.
"It's so messy, even if it's a princess, how can she take over the command?"
"Even if Lieutenant General Huo Lan dies in battle, according to the sequence, the one who takes over as commander should not be a 10-year-old girl!"
"What is Richie doing with this faint soul, does he want to go court-martialed after the war?"
Suddenly, the British ships flew wildly, questioning, arguing, and dissuading...... At this moment, the Royal Navy is undoubtedly facing a desperate situation of total collapse under Shen Lang's manipulation.
To add insult to injury, the German fleet was the first to be spotted by the destroyers, and the attack wave of more than 300 aircraft stunned everyone.
"I'll just say...... I'll just say...... This is too close to the coast, we are within the attack range of land-based aircraft! We will all be sinners of the Empire! "Captain Ritchie's face was pale, and it only took a few minutes for the fleet to descend on the fleet, and with only a few dozen Spitfires in the sky, it was impossible to stop the Germans' attack!
"There's nothing to be afraid of anymore, do you want to be kicked in the ass by the Germans and sink to the bottom of the sea, or do you want to charge with me and fight to the death with Lütjens?" Shen Lang controlled Princess Audrey to send the last wave of telegrams, and then stopped caring about the fleet, he believed that with the pride of the navy at this time, since Her Royal Highness the princess launched a decisive attack, even if those people behind him decided to retreat the ship, now facing the attack of the aircraft, there is no point in doing so.
Even if it can run 70 knots, the equivalent speed on land is only 130 kilometers per hour, which cannot be compared with airplanes at all, which is also the fundamental reason why the battleship era has come to an end and the aircraft carrier era has landed on the Blue Star!
"Full speed ahead, engine overload!" Princess Audrey pushed Richie away and took the captain's seat, ignoring Mr. Colonel's look of disbelief, she decisively grabbed power, and succeeded.
This depends on the accumulation of the previous three years, so that she still has a certain prestige in the fleet.
"But ......" the chief engineer complied with the princess's orders, but his eyebrows and nose were furrowed, and common sense told him that the consequence of this was that in a few minutes, the engine would burst, and the whole battleship would be paralyzed on the sea, which would become a feast for German warships and planes.
"Attention, port salvo, target Bismarck, sink her for me, avenge Hood!"
The Prince of Wales, who had suddenly picked up speed, showed her fangs, originally at the back of the battle line, in just 10 minutes, she surpassed the Nelson sisters and the George V, and the speed of 41 knots made her faster than the most advanced destroyers in the fleets of both sides.
Rumble!
9 15-inch naval guns, derived from Italian VV sauce. She is nicknamed a drug cannon because this naval gun has a caliber of 380 mm, and its power is directly compared to the Yamato-class Type 94 460 mm cannon, which is similar to the 406 mm naval gun of the Iowa class.
So, Bismarck sauce, don't look at your 380 can get rid of Hood sauce in seconds, it is the soul possession of the mustache, in terms of probability, it is purely the blind cat that catches the dead mouse, and then let Lütjans do it again a hundred times, maybe it is impossible to reproduce this result!
Shen Lang's armor belt that had been opened with a great deal of strength was really sharp, and the first salvo of the Prince achieved a cross-fire, which immediately shocked Lu Teyans into a cold sweat, and then the commander of the Führer's high sea fleet immediately ordered the Tirpitz, Scharnhorst, and Gneisenau to set fire to the Prince of Wales together.
A scene that made the Germans desperate happened, of course, the rain of bullets formed by the four battleships could still hit this extremely fast battleship, but unfortunately, except for a few shots that pierced the superstructure, all the shells that hit the side side, turret and deck were bounced off!
Seeing that Her Royal Highness the Princess launched the "Pig Rush", as Shen Lang expected, the two battle cruisers of the Prestige and the Counterattack were extremely brave, pulling extremely fast and trying to rush ahead of the Prince, and the Nelson sisters in the back were also red-eyed, even if they couldn't run fast, they still tried to support with naval guns.
The cruisers decisively moved closer to the Prince, because the planes in the sky were coming!
"We hit her!" The Prince controlled by Shen Lang actually did not rely on the calculations of the officers and soldiers of the radar room and the surveying and mapping room, nor did it require the so-called skilled control of the artillery crew.
You must know that although the main gun of the Bismarck is not very powerful, 3 rounds a minute can already be regarded as a large-caliber rapid-fire gun.
"Woo-boom!" The Germans were stunned by the fact that the guns of the naval guns were flying in the air like the whistle of a train, and the Germans were stunned by the accuracy of three of the nine shots, Bismarck's No. 1 turret was pierced, the turret was almost torn off by a huge explosion, and the wreckage also affected the firing range of the No. 2 turret.
"How is it possible, how deep is her penetrating power!" Lütjans struggled to stand up with his military hat on his hat, and the explosion shook the entire battleship violently, and the bridge staggered.
