Chapter 869 Double Kill!

The battleship Bavaria fired one and a half salvos and successfully hit two of the opponent's turrets with two shells! One of the shells rebounded again after breaking a barrel, leaving a bullet mark several meters long on the top of the turret. It was like being caught hard by the huge claws of a prehistoric beast.

Another shell easily tore through the armor belt on the front of the Queen Mary 2 turret. Looking from the outside, a light spot flashed on the turret, and then expanded rapidly, in less than 1 second. Here, this shell instantly killed more than 50 British naval officers and soldiers in the turret. The hot flames instantly filled the entire turret, and then detonated the shells and propellant in the turret! Boom! Huge shock waves erupted from the breaches and gaps in the turret, entire pieces of armor fell off, thick smoke rose, and a large amount of flames went down the open ammunition delivery channel. Along the way, shells and propellant packs were constantly detonated. It was not until the British flooded the ammunition depot that the battleship temporarily escaped disaster. After thousands of tons of seawater were poured in, the Queen Mary tilted about 10 degrees. Even though the speed was not high, the sea wolves that surged up when the battleship was sailing still swarmed onto the deck from time to time, and even rushed onto the deck. To the muzzle…. "Actually, the Queen Mary's attack was pretty accurate." Looking at the target in the distance that was constantly covered by water jets and flames, Scheer said this out of nowhere. "Well, it's just of no use." The prince glanced at the bullet mark on the top of the Bavaria No. 1 turret from the observation window of the command tower and said indifferently. This shell hit the armor on the top of the Bavarian turret. Although it destroyed the turret rangefinder, it did not cause any serious damage. If the prince's perception was correct, the British battle cruiser should have hit him three times. Except for one shot from the turret, the other one hit the tail. A small fire was lit, and then another hit the side armor belt. Apart from breaking the thin steel plate on the outside, it has no use. In fact, in the history of the Jutland Vanguard War, the Queen Mary performed best, and destroyed one of Seidlitz's turrets shortly after the war started. However, this time it was replaced by the rough-skinned and fleshy Bavaria, and Queen Mary's bombardment did not pose any threat. The Queen Mary, which had been hit continuously, was also a little panicked. He was ready to fine-tune its course to avoid the opponent's attacks, but the Bavaria's 24-second round of shelling did not give the opponent a chance at all. In the next round of salvos, At that time, the Queen Mary was hit again! The half-stretched top armor plate of No. 4 turret was blown off in the huge explosion, and then hit the deck heavily. A large amount of air poured in from the breach, which greatly fueled the fire inside the turret. More than 70 officers and soldiers in the turret were all killed in less than a minute, and continuous explosions were heard throughout the turret. What made the Queen Mary even worse was that the next hit directly penetrated the dressing room at the bottom of No. 4 turret! The British have only one turret fire door, and there is no fire door in the ammunition room... The damage caused by this shot to the Queen Mary even exceeded the previous sum! More than 20 artillery shells and more than 40 propellant packs were detonated in an instant, and more than ten tons of ammunition suddenly burst out with their light and heat! In an instant, a pillar of fire more than 40 meters long rose into the sky, and the violent explosion cut the entire battleship from the position of the No. 4 turret like a sharp sword! A wide crack extended from the upper part of the deck. The constant explosions were like a huge chainsaw tearing apart the already crumbling hull. The flames generated by the explosion poured into the ammunition compartment at an extremely high speed. This time, the British were not so lucky. The officers and soldiers in the ammunition depot were directly engulfed by the flames without even a chance to fill them with water.

Most of the subsequent shells that hit the Queen Mary were concentrated at the rear of the hull. The rear half of the regular hull was almost completely shrouded in flames and thick smoke. When the last explosion from the ammunition depot sounded, the thick Black smoke and the flash of light from the explosion engulfed the entire battleship, and various parts and debris were blown into the sky, including even a traffic boat more than ten meters long! The battleship continued to move forward under the huge inertia, and then the tail of the hull fell off. Under the huge force, the Queen Mary tilted sharply to the left, the angle instantly exceeded 35 degrees, and finally plunged into the sea! The tall bridge and the more than 200-meter-long hull were flat on the water. The huge impact caused the tall tripod mast of the battleship to instantly break into several pieces. The battleship sank very quickly, sinking to the bottom of the sea in just a few minutes. At this time, the flying debris began to fall one after another, scattering within a radius of several kilometers. Most fell into the sea, and a few smashed into the sea. On the British destroyer next to it. "The Queen Mary is over." Looking at the sudden flash of light in the distance. A deafening cheer sounded from the control tower on the Bavaria! "Long live the Imperial Navy!" Cheers of "Eternal prosperity to the Kingdom of Bavaria!" came from various cabins of the battleship. As a battleship designed by Bavaria and named Bavaria, it is also very important to recruit a large number of Bavarians on board. Normal things. One of the important reasons why the prince chose this battleship is that they are all "his own people". It is easier to gain recognition. "Okay, our mission today is not just this ship." The prince stood up with a smile and made a gesture to calm everyone's excitement. With a bang, a water column rose close to the hull of the Bavaria, and the entire battleship shook slightly. "We seem to have been hit by a mine?!" After standing firm, the prince had a terrifying thought in his heart. How do you say something? No matter how good your skills are, you are still afraid of torpedoes! Something should have exploded at the bottom of the Bavaria's hull just now! "What's going on? Find out immediately!" Soon, the control tower that had just been in a sea of ​​joy quickly returned to the busyness of the battle. Judging from the instrument, Bavaria's blow did not seem to be serious. It only caused a slight tilt of less than 2 degrees. At this angle, even the water injection balance was omitted. The results came out soon. No submarine was found on the sea. Even if there were submarines, it would be difficult to catch up with a fleet with a speed of at least 20 knots. At the same time, it is even more impossible to have mines. Who can lay mines on the wide sea? And looking at the shadows of ships appearing in the northeast, the Warrior, New Zealand and Australia, which are constantly spraying flames, the prince knows that the British reinforcements are coming. . The attack on Britain just now was caused by a water bomb fired by a certain warship. The second update~~~! Please subscribe and reward~~~! ! ! !
