"Ben Bao was hit!" Lieutenant Admiral Duff said with some worry as the front of the battleship Ben Bao, which was in front of him, soared into the sky in the distance. Just half a minute ago, a 15-inch shell accurately landed on the No. 2 main turret of Benbow. How can the only 12-inch armor block the 870 kg 15-inch armor-piercing shell? As a result, this turret with more than 60 Royal Navy officers and soldiers died very simply!

　　 The huge shell left a huge perforation on the forehead of the turret. Two long 343MM guns fell on the deck, billowing thick smoke and flames gushing out from the turret's opening. Groups of British naval officers and soldiers tried to extinguish the flames that were spreading around, but at this time the second disaster came!

　　 is also a 15-inch shell, also from the Saxon, this shell accurately hit the armor belt in the middle of the Benbau hull! Accompanied by the violent impact and the scattered fire, this shell successfully tore a large piece of armor plate from the huge hull. Subsequently, countless fragments and shells hit the left condenser at the rear of the armor plate, accompanied by a huge flame flying out of the sidestring of the battleship, even the British navy 2 kilometers away saw this heavy one strike!

　　 "The condenser on the left is destroyed, our fresh water is not enough!"

"The fire is spreading, **** it, there has been an abnormality inside the boiler cabin." A team of British naval officers and soldiers were busy in the narrow and dim passage inside the Benbow hull. The destroyed cabin was like the entrance to hell, filled with flames and smoke. . The British rescued their warship under the threat of death.

　　 "Your Excellency Lieutenant General, Ben Bao wants to temporarily withdraw from the battle." An officer pointed to the signal flag of Ben Bao and said. This is not a problem of Benbau’s evasion, but because after the left side condenser was destroyed, there was a serious problem with the boiler water, so the steam supply cannot be guaranteed. You must know that the entire fleet is currently 18 knots and the German fleet. Sailing almost in parallel, the Benbao, which lost nearly half of its power, is difficult to maintain on the battle line!

"Let him hold on again and control the amount of steam in the pipeline. Now that the battle has just started for 7 minutes, we can't let a super fearless ship out of the battle like this! Because..." Lieutenant General Duff said nothing. When I finished speaking, not far from the flagship Iron Duke, a series of shocking explosions came! The violent explosion instantly suppressed everyone's words!

The flagship of the German High Seas Fleet, Bavaria, aimed eight 15-inch heavy guns at the distance to the Marlborough. In the fifth round of a semi-volley, the Bavaria successfully clamped the target, and four water columns were evenly distributed on this ship. After being super fearless all around, the Bavaria, which quickly turned into effective firing, poured its firepower crazily at a rate of fire every half a minute. When the last round of shells had not entered the water, the second round of shells had already flown from the barrel. In the eighth minute, the Bavaria made a first round hit!

　　 Two 15-inch shells hit this poor warship one after another! A shell pierced the lower part of the turret of Marlborough 2! How can circular armor that is less than 10 inches thick can block 15-inch armor-piercing bullets? Like a hot knife cutting butter, the armor-piercing projectile easily penetrated into the dressing room in the gun mount. Then the fire flashed. The tons of shells and propellant accumulated in the dressing room were detonated, and the violent explosion destroyed the surrounding decks. The direct explosion was torn apart, and even the hundreds of tons of turret on the top of the gun mount was shaken off the gun mount!

　　 Although the fire door on the ammunition storage temporarily blocked the raging fire monsters, the raging flames had begun to spread to the No. 1 turret at the front of the hull. When the captain of the Marlborough was considering whether to flood the ammunition depots of both turrets, the second shell hit the poor warship.

　　 "Poor Marlborough! This gun seems to have entered the power compartment." On the combat side, officers and soldiers on a British destroyer on standby witnessed this spectacular sight. In the distance, there was a flash of fire on the huge battleship, followed by a loud noise, and the boiler chamber under the flue was like a volcanic eruption. A huge chimney was blown directly from the hull of the ship, and a section of the open deck tens of meters long was battered and riddled with holes. Flames, smoke, and high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor gushed out from the breach and quickly hit the hull. The sky spread over it, like a volcano waiting to erupt.

　　 However, the disaster of this poor battleship did not end, when the captain of the Marlborough only knew that his battleship had been hit twice, and did not even know the loss. The second round of attack has fallen. The third 15-inch shell drew an arc in the air, and then successfully shot into the top of the No. 2 turret magazine from the horizontal direction! The ammunition defensive system on the verge of collapse, which had already been killed and exploded, disintegrated instantly!

The huge artillery shell was torn apart by explosives under the action of the fuze. Thousands of fragments flew into the ammunition depot that had not been filled with water. As a result, almost the entire fleet heard the first sound of this naval battle. A deafening explosion! Many people also witnessed the death of the first sinking battleship in this naval battle!

Accompanied by a thunderous explosion~lightnovelpub.net~ a hundred-meter-long fire dragon rose up on the hull. The power of this explosion was so great that the huge energy from the explosion from the bottom of the ship’s ammunition was even Lift the hull slightly off the water! Under the action of its own gravity and explosion, with the No. 2 turret as the dividing line, the huge battleship broke in two, the front part of the bow was quickly swallowed by the waves, and the hull at the back was of no use despite hard work. With the sound of explosions one after another, hundreds of tons of fragments were thrown within a radius of several kilometers. The weight of the ship hit the sea. Thousands of tons of seawater poured into it, causing the ship to quickly move from the sea. Disappeared, 2 minutes later, only the mast and the propeller raised high at the tail showed that there was once a warship here.

　　 "God bless the German Empire!"

　　 "Long live the High Seas Fleet!"

　　 "Long live the heroic Bavaria!"

"Long live the crown prince! Long live the Kingdom of Bavaria!" When the Marlborough was blown to pieces in the distance, the German naval officers and soldiers on the Bavaria boiled. They have not experienced such a hearty experience of killing the enemy ship in a long time. The pleasure! In this decisive battle, the first kill was made. Also excited the officers and soldiers on the battleship. They believe that it was the creator of this battleship-Crown Prince Ruprecht and the ancestors of Bavaria that gave this battleship such good luck! After all, here are his 12 fellow apprentice brothers, if you want to get the first kill, luck is more important!
