Imperial Overlord

As if in the dark, the Jagged Prime Minister roared his own roar, it seemed to roar for the German Navy, and it seemed to make a deafening sound at sea for the Third Reich!

On the turbulent and undulating Atlantic Ocean, the eight 381mm caliber guns that were slightly raised shot out their hot flames. . fastest update

A huge shock wave spread out at the muzzle, blowing away the surging waves at once. However, these waves collided with other waves, splashing more water droplets.

As if to accompany the roar of the battleship Bismarck, the Atlantic Ocean, which has belonged to Britain for a hundred years, is churning up a huge wave as thick as a city wall at this moment.

There was a thunder in the strange sky, blocking the moonlight and the dark clouds of the stars, showing his existence unwilling to be lonely.

Remember when the Bismarck fired twice in a row and on which side of the Hood the shells landed? If you remember two times shells landed on the Hood's starboard side, you know what the turning of both sides meant.

The Hood and the Bismarck distanced themselves, and the moment the shells of the battleship Bismarck rushed out of the muzzle, they flew towards the Hood.

Flying over a long distance, across the surging sea surface, these shells rubbed in the air, and the temperature made the entire projectile hot.

The shells then fell at their highest point, the front of the shells cutting through the darkness and hitting the deck of the battlecruiser Hood.

The wooden deck was penetrated at once, and the armor below 100mm thick could not stop the impact of the 381mm caliber shells at all.

As if it was cut into the butter by a hot knife, the fragile horizontal armor of the Hood, after all, as in history, there was no cannonball that could stop the battleship Bismarck.

Just when the Reputation battlecruiser was hit, the British search fleet seemed to have lost the favor of God. And at this moment, it turns out that their luck really ran out.

Not only one shell, but two shells hit the Hood at the same time, such a hit accuracy proved the power of the German Navy's ultimate killer.

The German standard 52-caliber 381mm main gun has been tempered to an extremely precise level by German engineers and technicians.

This kind of artillery, which is almost processed by the most precise machine in the whole world, can also achieve amazing shooting accuracy when the warship is shaking.

Now, they have proved their excellence with their actual performance! The two shells hit the deck of the battlecruiser Hood accurately and penetrated there.

Standing on the bridge of the USS Hood, John Tovey only felt the warship under his feet tremble, and then he was lifted off the ground by the violent shaking.

Like an earthquake, he felt that he couldn't stand at all, and then his feet suddenly left the ground, as if they had suddenly disappeared.

Before he realized what he had experienced, he was caught off guard by the ground hitting him back at his feet.

His whole body fell to the ground like this, and he felt severe pain in his face and chest. He wanted to get up reluctantly, but found that his entire body had lost the ability to move.

In John Tovey's chaotic brain, a terrible thought emerged. When he was shocked, he was still consciously aware of the seriousness of the problem.

damn it! His battleship was hit! And it seems that the place where it was hit this time is not an insignificant place!

Originally, the place he most wanted the Germans to hit was the very perverted broadside armor of the Hood! The thickness there is really amazing, and it's on par with a real battleship.

A simple comparison shows how confident John Tovey is of the Hood's broadside armor. The battleship Bismarck's broadside armor is 320 mm thick, while the Hood's broadside is as much as 305 mm!

It's a pity that this time, as in history, the two shells accurately hit the Hood's deck, which is the fragile horizontal armor, at a distance of about 16 kilometers.

The thickness here is only a pitiful 100 millimeters. For the main gun of the battleship level, it is no different from streaking.

Because of this, the two shells easily penetrated this fragile protective armor, then smashed the ceiling of the lower cabin, and then pierced the floor of this cabin.

During this process, the momentum of the two artillery shells continued unabated, and then continued to destroy downwards, until they stopped at a deeper place.

When the two shells stopped in the steel plate, the armor-piercing fuze placed inside them activated the explosive in the warhead.

It took only one thousandth of a second for the two bombs to explode the most violently. The shells burst together with the surrounding steel plates of the cabin, forming an ever-expanding force of destruction.

Just after these terrifying forces spread, and in the process of rampaging with flames and high temperature, this devastating force of destruction encountered something that could increase their power.

What they hit was a boiler with a high temperature and flame inside! The battlecruiser Hood's 24 tera triple boilers and the huge gas turbines behind them!

Inside the Hood's power bay, the force of the shell blast shattered the hardened boiler casing and detonated the fuel inside. The boilers turned into one small bomb after another, blowing up the power compartment.

After tearing and tearing again and again, the Hood's broadside and bottom finally couldn't stand the twist and began to leak.

The wisps of high-pressure water appeared like fire hydrants, and the entire cabin was full of mutilated corpses, as well as fuel that was still burning.

The explosion continued to spread, and the power of the shell was expanded countless times in the enclosed space inside the Hood.

Although it didn't break down and sank on the spot like the USS Prestige, the USS Hood was definitely seriously injured.

Although the Hood did not appear to be seriously injured, the two shells did paralyze the pride of the British Royal Navy all at once.

HMS Hood's appearance is very beautiful, which is also an important reason why it represents the Royal Navy to travel around the world. This battleship has a slender shape and looks like a sea city on the side.

From a professional point of view, the Hood can be regarded as one of the most beautiful warships in the world! Uh... The ugliest one is Yamashiro, Japan, with an absolute lead in votes, none.

You must know that it is a full 12 meters longer than the Bismarck. It is much more streamlined than the Bismarck.

Sadly, this is a war, not a beauty pageant. The Hood's beautiful posture can't make it look good in front of the battleship's shells, so it began to slow down sadly.

The battlecruiser Hood, which had lost most of its engine compartment, dropped to less than 15 knots after a minute.

"We were shot! We were shot!" General John Tovey, who had just regained his 50% consciousness, shouted loudly before he got up from the floor.

He wanted to struggle to get up from the ground, but he held his hands on the floor for a while, and he failed to do this simple action.

At this moment, his ears were still ringing, and the huge explosion had weakened a lot as the steel spread to the bridge, but it still made people dizzy.

"Notify the damage control! Notify the damage control! Let them fix it quickly! Put out the fire as quickly as possible! Quick! Quick!" He simply gave up his plan to get up and lay on the ground, John Tovey shouted loudly.

The battleship has been hit by the enemy, and using the remaining power, the only way for the battlecruiser Hood to survive now is to quickly turn south before the opponent's firepower has covered it.

To find a way to get out of the battle, to take advantage of the psychological advantage that the German fleet did not dare to rush to chase and kill in the dark, it was important to keep the battleship.

"Sir!" Just as John Tovey on the ground kept giving orders, a young officer supported his arm: "Are you injured?"

"Don't mind me! I'm fine! Let the warship turn immediately! Turn immediately! Head south! You must use maneuvering to contain the opponent!" John Tovey shouted loudly while standing up with the help of others.

Now his mind is full of thoughts of getting the Hood out of battle as soon as possible. No matter what, he wants to bring this battleship back to the British mainland safely.

Well, it seems that the word safety has nothing to do with it now... But at least, take it back to the UK, right?

If the two fastest battlecruisers are lost at once, the British Navy's fleet, what will be the next time to stop the German fleet, which has an overall superiority in speed?

"Turn right now!" John Tovey, who saw that his subordinates were still supporting him~www.wuxiaspot.com~ had already lost his senses, pushed and motioned for the other party to command the battleship first.

As long as the turn is successful, the Hood can use a smaller stern to face the German fleet, so the possibility of being hit will be much lower.

At the same time, using the little bit of speed that was reserved, the Hood could go south slowly. If the German fleet did not dare to pursue, the Hood would have escaped.

As for intercepting the German fleet, John Tovey at this time didn't even think about it. What he was thinking about now was how to preserve the pride of the Royal Navy, the Hood.

Unfortunately, when his order was not conveyed on the bridge, shells from another German battleship rained down on the rear of the Hood.

Although the shooting angle was a little small, the Gneisenau, which had already killed its own target, launched the first round of attacks on the Hood with the six 280mm caliber guns on the bow——

It is not easy to code words. Long Ling, who is sick, does not dare to ask for a monthly ticket. I just want everyone to understand and wait patiently for Long Ling to make up for it. Thank you. Thank you.
