The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1,236 Explosion

Chapter 1236 Outbreak

"God, what happened?" The nearby British pilots saw with experience that this powerful existence, which they nicknamed Antai, broke into two parts due to its own weight within a few seconds, and a black figure appeared. Flying quickly over the falling plane, it was like the god of death in the sky. After harvesting a target with a scythe, it set its sights on other opponents with malicious intent!

"It's a German plane! Damn it! We have never encountered these things!" The arrival of the Scimitar Squadron completely broke the British dominance of the air, and because of the interruption of radio communications, many British bomber crews did not notice the incoming attack. The fleet, when they discovered that the Skybreakers on the opposite side were aiming their terrifying cannons at them, it was already too late!

The first ones to suffer were the O-400 bombers and the FB27 bombers. For the K-4J interceptor, such a target was just the right size, not too small, so their maneuverability was very poor, and the size was not too big. , so the above self-defense firepower and its own anti-strike ability are relatively miserable... It's the kind that can't be run away or beaten. For Tracers, fighter jets are too slippery, fly fast and flexible, and are difficult to catch. The V1500 bomber is too big, and the number of self-defense machine guns reaches 9. Above, not all people have the skills as high as Second Lieutenant Stauffenberg. You can kill your opponent as easily as a cook can kill an ox!

The intruding Scimitar Squadron completely disrupted the British air attack. Without the suppression of bombers, Count Spee's fleet was finally able to attack the Russians. Before the Russians could clearly see what was going on in the distance, they Three fast battleships, two quasi-dreadnoughts, and eight destroyers, led by the flagship Prinz Eugen, rushed straight out of the smoke screen and rushed towards the Russian fleet not far away!

"Is it finally going to start?" Lieutenant General Eberhard sighed as he looked at the German fleet approaching at a speed of more than 18 knots. Although they tried their best to avoid a head-on confrontation with the German fleet, the Russian fleet was no longer an option. The Germans were not in a hurry to pursue them. The lieutenant general knew the reason. This was a chance for the Germans to give the Russians, or a so-called Beautiful phantom!

Let the Russians think they have a chance to escape, then? Naturally, the Russians evacuated to the northeast, and the German fleet continued to pursue the northeast. After leaving the support range of the British bombers, it was haha... The lieutenant general can guarantee that the three German fast battleships can bring the Russian fleet into the best shooting range of the naval guns within 2 hours, and then kill the main ships of the Black Sea Fleet one by one!

Therefore, if you talk nonsense, you will definitely die, and if you stay, let’s not talk about what will happen to the German fleet, but it seems that not many of the Russian fleet can survive... That's the difference between nine deaths and no life. But it has to be said that the Russian Navy in this era is indeed much better than the army in terms of quality and spirit. After Lieutenant General Eberhard gave the order, the Russian fleet headed by the Queen Maria began to turn, and then the fleet changed its formation, and it was on the same course as the German fleet, heading northwest!

"The Russians still put their hopes in the British!" Count Spey is still very relaxed now.

Scimitar Squadron had stopped the British bombers. And if it's a fleet battle, the count guarantees that he can teach the Russian fleet to be a new man in minutes!

"Start allocating targets! Starting from Prince Eugen, keep an eye on each Russian battleship in turn. As for the last two Dreadnoughts, don't worry about it for the time being." After the count finished speaking, he took out a cigarette made in Havana from the cigar box. cigar, lit after trimming with cigar cutters.

The attack sequence of the German fleet, which is full of good cards, is very easy to arrange. Prinz Eugen will deal with Queen Maria. Teghov versus Emperor Alexander III. The Reshadier versus the quasi-dreadnought Yevstafi. The quasi-dreadnought Ferdinand dealt with the Russian quasi-dreadnought John Chrysostom. As for the last two pre-dreadnoughts, the Panjelemon and the Three Saints, we don't care about it for the time being. Anyway, the distance between the two sides is now about 18 kilometers. Even when firing, the German fleet will use its speed advantage to maintain the fighting distance. At about 15 kilometers, what can the two dreadnoughts behind do? Count Spee thought he had done it well!

However, the Russians' order of battle distribution is very interesting. It goes without saying that the Empress Maria and the Emperor Alexander III dealt with two German super-dreadnoughts respectively. The most ridiculous thing is that the three Russian battleships in the middle dealt with the super-dreadnought Resardier together, leaving only Chrysostom. John versus Ferdinand. What is even more unexpected is that the three Russian Dreadnoughts used to deal with the Reshadier were not designed individually, but used a set of tactics unique to the Russians and with independent intellectual property rights - the Trinity Shooting Method!

This is a tactic specially created by Eberhard, the commander of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, in order to deal with the two super-dreadnoughts purchased by the Turkish Navy from Germany. The Russian Black Sea Fleet is suffering. The two super-dreadnoughts built for Turkey in Germany arrived in the Black Sea. At that time, the Black Sea Fleet did not have a single dreadnought... Once the war officially begins, it will be a situation of being brutally killed, and the Russians will naturally not sit still and wait for death, so they decided to use the Dreadnought to solve the problem of long-range combat.

Russian naval technicians believe that when the fire control and sighting systems are up to standard, the biggest difference between pre-dreadnoughts and dreadnoughts is the number of main guns. Dreadnoughts generally have more than 8 main guns. In this case, even half of them It can also shoot out 4 shells at a time, and continuous semi-volley fire can quickly find the target. And it forms a fairly standard elliptical bullet drop area. But a single Dreadnought is not enough. Although a full salvo can fire 4 shells in one round, the rate of fire is too slow and it is difficult to find the target accurately. And if it is a semi-volley, it will not be able to form an effective bomb drop area at all. Naturally, long-distance shooting is out of the question.

Then the Russians, who thought they had found the key to the problem, came up with such a strategy. For the so-called "Trinity Shooting Method", you must first have three Dreadnoughts. Then you need to set the middle front dreadnought as the main ship, and the two front and rear battleships as slave ships. The middle battleship is used as the main ship, on the one hand because the front battleship is easy to be targeted, and on the other hand because the middle battleship is easy to target. The warship conveniently communicated with the two subordinate ships at the same time. Less prone to misunderstandings and mistakes.

When the battle begins, the main ship obtains the target data through its own fire control system, and then transmits it to the two slave ships. Then the three battleships make corrections based on the unified data and launch a salvo like a fearless one. In this case, the Russians believe that the three battleships The former Dreadnought had 12 main guns, and then there were 6 half-volley guns, so it could be used as a Dreadnought.
