Germanic Empire: please call me William III

About a hundred and twenty kilometers away from the battlefield off the western waters of the Azores, a fleet of three battlecruisers and four light cruisers was scurrying on the surface of the sea.
This fleet was the 2nd Battleship Detachment, led by Rear Admiral Roger. The three battlecruisers are all ‘Indefatigable- class’ battlecruisers. Compared with the Invincible class battlecruiser, the Indefatigable class battlecruisers, although the displacement increased by two thousand tons, the main data is almost the same. The only improvement was that the two main turrets located in the middle were separated, separating the two sides of the battleship. In this way, once hit by enemy shells, it will not lose two main turrets at once.
On the battlecruiser Tireless, Rear Admiral Roger was clutching a cigar and from time to time raised his telescope to look into the distance.
“How long until we get there?” Major General Roger issues.
“Your Excellency, General, we are heading in the opposite direction with the 1st Battlecruiser Detachment. At the current rate, it will be possible to arrive in about an hour and a half. However, the 1st Battlecruiser Detachment seemed to be in a very bad position, and was crushed by the Germans. Three ‘Invincible-class’ battlecruisers, the situation is very bad! “An officer reports.
Major General Roger had a smile on his face: “What is that Oliver guy doing?” Didn’t the Germans have only two battlecruisers, and several heavy cruisers and light cruisers? The strength of the 1st Battlecruiser Detachment, if not as strong as the Germans, should have dragged the Germans and held out until we arrived. Send them a telegram and let them hold on. We’ll be there exactly in an hour and a half. The premise, though, is that they don’t change course. Otherwise, we’ll have to go around in circles. ”
“Yes, Your Excellency, General!” The officer answered.
At this moment, Rear Admiral Roger did not know that the fleet led by Rear Admiral Oliver was completely crushed, or even in danger.
Both the invincible battlecruiser and the indomitable battlecruiser have been hit many times. As for the battlecruiser “Indomitable”, it was hit by more than a dozen 210 mm shells, almost about to be beaten into a sieve.
However, the counterattack of the battlecruiser Indomitable also hit the heavy cruiser Sagittarius. The 305 mm naval gun is powerful and is not something that the heavy cruiser Sagittarius can carry. If two or three more 305 mm shells were lost, the heavy cruiser Sagittarius would probably be finished.
“Boom!”
Another 380 mm shell hit the battlecruiser Invincible.
This time, it was the invincible battlecruiser who was shot in the stern.
After easily penetrating the deck armor, the 380 mm armor-piercing shell exploded inside the hull. The huge force directly broke the two drive shafts, causing the speed of the “Invincible” battlecruiser to begin to drop sharply.
In a fierce naval battle, once the speed is reduced, it means that the chance of being hit will be greatly improved.
During the high-speed navigation of the battleship, the hull will produce bumps, and it is not easy to hit the target tens of thousands of meters away. However, once the speed of the battleship is reduced, everything is completely different.
“Very good, fire with all your might, and kill the battleship as soon as possible!” Lieutenant General Hipper lowered the telescope in his hand, a look of excitement on his face.
“Yes, Your Excellency, General!” The gunnery commander answered.
“Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The three triple 380 mm shells of the battlecruiser Lyuzov continued to fire violently, and one shell after another fell well into the battlecruiser Invincible.
Now is a time of war, but not a time of mercy.
Taking advantage of his illness to kill him is definitely the only law in war.
Inside the tower, the commander of the battlecruiser Invincible, Rear Admiral Oliver’s face was already gloomy as if he could drip water.
“Your Excellency, General Roger, they will need more than an hour to arrive. We may not be able to withstand the Germanic attack. Colonel Henry said.
“Damn the Germans, they’re literally heavier armor than we are, and the main gun caliber is bigger than ours!” Otherwise, how could they be our opponents? “Major General Oliver is very depressed.
“Your Excellency, general, the situation is now very critical. Otherwise, let’s retreat immediately! Colonel Henry advised.
Obviously, if they continue to carry on, they will soon be killed completely.
“Retreat? Can we get rid of it? The speed of the Invincible is constantly decreasing, and soon it will drop below 20 knots, and we will not be able to escape. Order each gun position to continue fighting. Even if we were sunk, it would be worth it if we could wreak havoc on the Germanic warships and gain a greater advantage for the reinforcements that followed! Major General Oliver made a decisive choice.
He knew very well that he could not escape now, and could only fight to the death.
Even if they were killed, if they could severely damage the battleships of the Germanic Imperial Navy, the subsequent reinforcements would be able to avenge them.
After all, this is the Atlantic Ocean, the sea controlled by the Royal Navy.
The Royal Navy could never have allowed the warships of the Germanic Navy to escape safely.
“Yes, Your Excellency, General!” Colonel Henry replied.
The fierce battle continued, and although the Royal Navy showed great courage and will to fight, it could not change the outcome of the naval battle.
The Germanic Imperial Navy’s battlecruisers Lützov and Goeben, with their strong defenses, opened fire against the fierce fire of the battlecruisers Invincible and indomitable.
Soon, the Invincible battlecruiser was hit three more times. Three 380 mm shells inflicted fatal damage directly on the invincible battlecruiser. In particular, the waterline armor was blown open by a large opening, and the sea water rushed into the ship’s hull, causing the invincible battlecruiser to overturn and sink into the sea.
The battlecruiser Indomitable followed suit, also killed by the battlecruiser Goeben.
As for the battlecruiser “Indomitable”, which was surrounded and beaten by three ‘Constellation-class’ heavy cruisers, it was already in ruins.
Although the power of the 210 mm shells was not enough, the 210 mm shells were too many, which also caused the battlecruiser “Indomitable” to suffer a fatal blow.
However, the battlecruiser Indomitable also caused great damage to the Germanic Navy’s heavy cruiser Sagittarius before it sank.
As for several light cruisers of the Imperial Navy, the sun never sets, they also suffered heavy losses, and were destroyed by the heavy cruisers and battlecruisers of the Germanic Imperial Navy.
In this naval battle, the Imperial Navy of the Empire that never sets can be said to have ended in a fiasco.
