Although the destroyer was small, it was more than 80 meters long! Facing the sudden turning of the German battleship, the two Japanese destroyers made different choices. One destroyer began to turn, trying to light up the torpedo tube on the side of the ship. Continue to charge, and then launch the torpedo, while the other destroyer subconsciously chose to evade.

However, I don’t know if it was because I was too nervous or something else to do, neither of the two destroyers pulled out the smoke screen at the first time. Maybe I thought the opponent’s secondary gun was not very powerful? It didn’t matter if I first shot. But sorry, this time, the two German battleships even used the main guns.

A water column of more than 40 meters rose 15 meters ahead of the Yangyan destroyer, which continued to decide to fight to the death. The sea water falling all over the sky instantly took a sea bath on the front deck of Yangyan. It was not too late. Just 20 seconds later, another 350MM high-explosion bomb successfully lined up on the torpedo tube in the middle of the Yangyan hull! So, Yangyan became the first sacrifice to be sent to the altar of the God of War. The torpedo in the two torpedo tubes directly took away the destroyer of more than 900 tons. In an instant, hundreds of tons of steel were blown into countless pieces.

As for the other destroyer, when facing the two German battleships that suddenly concentrated all their firepower, they did not run out. They turned around, turned, pulled the smoke screen, and then were caught up by flying shells 9,000 meters away from the two German battleships. They also had a 350MM armor-piercing bomb, which directly dropped the engine compartment at the rear of the hull, and then turned the waterline of the hull into a colander.

Before the German fleet could cheer for their physiology, a fire suddenly broke out in the middle of the hull of Gneesenau. A 14-inch armor-piercing bomb shot from Kirishima hit the slowed battleship. However, the problem was not big, and it was directly bounced away by thick armor. After the hit, a scratch more than 1 meter long was left on the water part of the starboard side of the battleship.

"Continue to turn right and 1 prayer point! Our opportunity is here!" Su Xiong ordered loudly. After the two Japanese destroyers were killed in a very short time, the other three Japanese destroyers subconsciously chose to avoid it. The pressure of lightning strike was temporarily gone. The German fleet did not open the distance again to fight the battle line as the Japanese imagined, but continued to turn right and tried to cut across the diagonally in front of the two Japanese battlecruisers. This is not obvious that they want to fight melee!

"Damn it! Is this going to fight to the death?" The others in the mountain house were also stunned. He didn't expect that the German fleet, which has always been known for its strong ships and sharp guns, actually planned to fight in close combat. He gave up the advantage of long-distance combat and quarreled with himself. What was the other party thinking?

Just as others were hesitating, two more shells hit the German warship. Although the speed change rate of both sides was still very large, the distance between the two sides had narrowed to about 12 kilometers at this time! Therefore, the hit rate of the Japanese fleet also began to rise sharply. Perhaps because of the results of the battle, others hesitated and did not issue an order to avoid or release the smoke screen. "Maybe we can fight to the death of a German battleship this time?" others said in their hearts.

Boom! A few seconds ago, Su Xiong felt what an earthquake was for the first time. A shell slapped directly on the side of the command tower. Fortunately, the command tower with a thickness of 15 inches was quite powerful. But the vibration was inevitable. After standing up with the wall, Su Xiong did not take care of his colleague who was also shocked, but immediately picked up the phone number inside the ship: "Prepare to open fire, get closer! Kill them!"

Two German fast battleships rushed towards the Japanese fleet like crazy beasts, and fired the first round of volleys when the distance was close to 10,500 meters! That's right, after killing the Japanese destroyer, the German battleship did not attack the Japanese battleship with its main gun. The few armor-piercing bombs left can no longer be wasted, so they were waiting for a moment that was enough to kill with one blow!

10,500 meters! This is a combat distance that the main battleships of both sides have almost never experienced during the day since the beginning of the Battle of 1. This distance is simply too close! Compared with the main gun of the battleship, it can already be considered as pushing the muzzle on the opponent's forehead!

However, this time, the defense of the German battleships refreshed the Japanese senses again! At a distance of about 10 kilometers, the 14-inch shells of the Japanese battleships were bounced away again and again! Two German battleships shuttled between flames and water columns, and fireballs rose up from time to time on them. However, they continued to fight like an undead Hydra and counterattacked the Japanese fleet with fierce shelling!

"They are simply invulnerable monsters. At such a close distance, we can even use a telescope to clearly observe the details on the opponent's warship! We hope that we can pierce the opponent's armor with the spear in our hands like a dragon slaying warrior, but reality once again made us desperate. The German warships were immune to our attacks again and again, and then aimed the thick and long 350MM cannon at us!" A Japanese officer on the King Kong recalled the scene at that time.

"It's going to be!" When the main guns of the two German fast battleships spewed out flames at the two Japanese battleships again, others in the mountain house felt a slap in their hearts. A sense of fear from the depths of their souls surged up, and this bone-broken chill and fear made his reaction half a beat slow!

The first round of attack successfully clamped the target, and the second round of half-volley continued to clamp! The third round of half-volley, the battleship Schánhorst successfully pasted two shells on the face of King Kong! The first shell directly pierced the front of the King Kong turret No. 1, but how can 8-inch armor resist the German 350MM armor-piercing projectile 1 10 kilometers away?

The armor-piercing shell left a huge round bullet hole on the armor plate and the bullet body was still intact! And it exploded after hitting the ammunition rack in the tail compartment of the turret! Fortunately, there were not many ammunition behind, but only 2 shells and 2 packs of fire medicine, but even so, it was enough to let the King Kong drink a pot!

The flame storm caused by the violent explosion instantly swept across the entire turret, and the huge energy even lifted up half of the turret top cover, and the turret rangefinder behind it was blown into pieces! The overwhelming smoke of fire quickly covered the high bridge of the King Kong under the sea breeze.
