"here you go!"

Lin Yongsheng jumped up excitedly. Whether it was the soldiers on the battleship of the First Emperor or the soldiers on the battleship of the Hanwu Emperor, they all cheered excitedly when they saw the German battleship of the Swabian battleship.

Just the second round of fire-gathering volleys, the 30,000-ton giant ship Swabian was killed in seconds. This is unprecedented in the history of ancient and modern naval battles, and it is enough to make the two super battleships that have just been in service famous.

"Soldiers, but that's not enough!"

"We want to destroy the German Navy in front of us!"

"Destroy the German Navy!"

The German battlecruiser Swabian was killed in seconds, which greatly boosted the morale of the Chinese Empire Navy. He was determined to do his best to remove all the remaining German shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

The twenty-four main guns quickly adjusted the firing range, and the third round of volleys began.

The thunderous cannon sounded again, and the remaining German warships trembled in the violent rain of cannons.

Every time a ton of artillery shells exploded, even if they were just near-arrow bombs, they scared the sailors on the German ships.

There is no way, the power of the eighteen-inch shells is too great. The 30,000-ton battleship Swabian was killed in seconds. These small ships of thousands of tons, even if they were hit by such giant shells, would be sunk, and even the slag would be left.

In front of the super battleship, any battleship, cruiser, destroyer, frigate and other battleships are here to give you experience.

The Swabian was sunk in the instant of the battle patrol, which really scared the German troops of other ships. Before the fourth round of artillery attacks of the Imperial Army arrived, these German ships turned around and fled.

In just ten minutes, the entire Monrovia Bay became bleak, with smoke everywhere covering the sky and the sun.

The sound of artillery continued to roar. It was the artillery from the Monrovia Fortress. Although the Germans there were also feared by the sinking of the battleship Swabian, they continued to launch artillery under Schlifen's forced order.

Shilifen had been nervous at the beginning, and now he was slowly calming down. He soon noticed that the fortress artillery did not have any effect on the two super battleships of the Chinese Empire. When the maximum caliber twelve-inch fortress artillery shells were fired at a large elevation angle, the ballistic curve fell on the horizontal deck of the super battleship of the Chinese Empire, it would cause a considerable degree of damage.

This is true, and Shi Lifen's judgment is not wrong.

The two super battleships of the Chinese Empire have the thickest vertical armored ships with a thickness of 500 mm. At present, no artillery of any caliber in the world can penetrate such thick armor protection.

However, the horizontal armor of the two super battleships is not as thick as 500 mm. After all, if even horizontal armor is required to reach a thickness of 500 mm, the armor weight will be at least 40,000 tons, and the full load displacement of the imperial battleship is only 68,000 tons, so it is impossible to lay a horizontal armor of 500 mm thick.

Of course, the Chinese Empire's military has long understood that the mode of sea combat is no longer limited to direct artillery fire. The main guns carried on the main battleships of the Chinese Empire can reach 45 degrees of maximum elevation angle. For example, the two Imperial-class battleships in front of them have a maximum elevation angle of 45 degrees and a minimum elevation angle of negative second degrees. When shooting at the maximum elevation angle, the range is as high as 46 kilometers, and their ballistics are the largest parabola, with the purpose of penetrating the horizontal armor of the enemy ship for damage.

The ballistic parabolic shooting changed the way modern naval warfare was engaged. During the World War, the Japanese Joint Fleet and the American Ocean Fleet suffered a great loss when fighting against the Chinese Empire Navy. Their warships had too thin armor level, so that any 200-mm armor-piercing blast bomb could penetrate the warship and cause heavy damage.

That is the method of naval battle. It is very difficult for warship main guns to achieve a large elevation angle. They require a tall hull main gun turret design. In this regard, the turret design of other countries' navies is not yet mature, so the main gun shooting elevation angle generally does not exceed 30 degrees. It is not easy to shoot large elevation shells during naval battles, so it is difficult to find the weaknesses of horizontal armor protection.

Therefore, Tirpitz said before that the fortress cannon could not sink two Chinese Empire super battleships, which was judged based on the theory of vertical armor, and he ignored the horizontal armor aspect.

The two super battleships of the Chinese Empire have a horizontal armor protection thickness of only 200 mm. Although fortress cannons with a height of more than 188 mm have theoretically chances to penetrate 200 mm of armor, it is a European standard. If it were the Chinese Empire standard, since the Chinese Empire warships used the most powerful Chinese special steel in the world, if they wanted to penetrate 200 mm of Chinese special steel, the German Krupp Fortress cannon must reach at least 280 mm caliber.

During actual combat, Schlifen found that when the 305mm fortress cannon on the fortress was fired at the maximum elevation angle, it could cause huge damage to the super battleships of the Chinese Empire, rather than requiring at least 400mm caliber as Tirpitz said before.

With this discovery, Shi Lifen has regained confidence. As long as he can survive the battle in front of him, he can quickly replace a large number of 305mm caliber fortress cannons for the fortress.

Of course, Schlifen was worried about the current war. After all, only two Chinese Empire warships came. Although they were the two most powerful super battleships in the world, they were only showing off their muscles at most, and were limited to a corner of the bay, and it was impossible to expand the attack range.

The main guns of warships have lifespans. The lifespan of the two Chinese Empire super battleships is only 300 rounds. It takes at least half a month to replace the barrel of this super cannon. If the round trip is included, it is impossible without four or five months.

In this way, it is impossible for the two super battleships of the Chinese Empire to waste ammunition at this time and will be concentrated at the beginning of the most intense battle.

On the sea, Lin Yongsheng was full of pride in his face. He was happy to complete the task successfully. He was excited to kill a super fearless battle cruiser of the German Navy in one shot, but most importantly, in front of all the German troops, he hit the face of Shilifen, the defense minister of the German Empire, in front of all the German troops, which was a very comfortable thing.

"Report, twenty rounds of volleys have been completed. Please instruct whether to continue attacking!"

Lin Yongsheng was excited and couldn't help feeling disappointed when he heard this report.

"It's already twenty rounds? Then end it! Notify the Hanwu Emperor to complete the mission and retreat!"

Although he was still unsatisfied, Lin Yongsheng also knew the power of German fortress artillery, especially those fortress artillery more than 300 mm, the condescending shells and the trajectory curved, which was extremely destructive to the horizontal armor protection of imperial-level battleships.

In the battle just now, several decks of the battleship of the First Emperor were hit and injured. The battleship of the Hanwu Emperor was also slightly injured, some superstructures were attacked, and five Chinese imperial naval soldiers were injured.

The two super battleships in Lin Yongsheng's hand are treasures of the Chinese Empire Navy. This time, they show off their muscles and pretend to be B. If they are accidentally severely injured, they will not be slapping them in the face, but embarrassing.

"Fire the gun with all your might, and you must not let these two damn Chinese Empire warships escape!"

When he found that the two Chinese Empire battleships turned around and drove away from the bay, Shilifen's confidence instantly became sufficient and yelled, as if he wanted to let the whole world know that these two Chinese Empire's super battleships were beaten away by him.

"Report to the General, the two battleships of the Imperial Chinese Navy have fled! It has exceeded our artillery range!"

"Absolutely they run fast, otherwise they will definitely sink!"

Before Schlidian could speak, Governor Perot next to him jumped out and stuttered, as if all the credit was his.

Schlifen looked at Perro with a painful expression on his face.

At this moment, Schlifen didn't know how to deal with this corrupt and perverted Perot. On the one hand, Schlifen really wanted to kill Perot, and on the other hand, Schlifen hoped to report the battle as victory. So since he had won, it was obvious that Perot's contribution could not be ignored. After all, Schlifen had just arrived, and this fortress project was prepared by Perot, which could not be denied.

I really want to kick me to death!

Schlie disgusted and said angrily: "Why don't you go and see General Tirpitz, if he dies, I will kill you!"

"I hope he's still alive!"

Perot said with a bitter look on his face. There was no way to kill someone with a higher level. If you wanted to save your life, you had to search and rescue Tirpitz.

The fleeing German Navy's 19th Cruise Fleet saw two Chinese Empire super battleships leaving, and hurriedly turned around and joined the operation to search and rescue Tirpitz and other surviving German sailors.

After waiting for a while, Schliefen lost his patience. He knew very well that the German army took the lead in firing, so the Chinese Empire had an excuse to start a war. He had to go to war with the German Empire and began to go to Monrovia alone. Schliefen was not sure about his mind and hurriedly returned to the Governor's Office and sent a notice to Berlin, asking for the orders of German Emperor William III.

At the Berlin Palace, William, who had just ascended the throne as the German Empire, was not very familiar with everything because he was actually still in high school.

Once Schlie left Berlin, the central power of the entire German Empire fell into the hands of Prince Baden. All military and political orders from the German Emperor could only be issued and implemented after they were approved by Prince Baden.

However, Prince Baden was still good to Hitler. After all, he was still using it and could not give him too much face.

So Hitler surfaced and served as the head of the Gestapo and the secretary-general of the Prime Minister's Office.

Although Hitler was Hitler, he did not change the name Hitler, but he has since called Hitler. He felt that the name Hitler was more charming and domineering.

"It's true, the fight started!"

Prince Baden and Hitler opened a single conference room, and they stood shoulder to shoulder.

"What are you going to do?"

"According to the strategy you have formulated before, I will follow the diplomatic channels and theories of the Chinese Empire. You must defend the German Southwest Africa land. How long can it take, but you must not let Shi Libin come back alive, do you understand?"

Schrifen was Prince Baden's biggest opponent and obstacle, and Hitler knew it well and did not reveal it.

In Hitler's view, after Prince Baden eliminated Schlie, he would force the palace to the German Emperor William III, and then Prince Baden became the emperor. This is exactly what Hitler likes. Otherwise, if Hitler forced the palace to force William III, the resistance would be unprecedented and the price would be huge. On the contrary, Prince Baden forced the palace to kill William III, and then Hitler would have another mantis stalked the cicada and oriole behind him, which would be the real beneficiary.

Of course, the premise is that Prince Baden will not attack Hitler as soon as possible after killing Schlid.

In this regard, Hitler could not guess clearly and could only show that he had greater value in front of Prince Baden, so that Prince Baden could not take action against Hitler for the time being.

Hitler knew that he was also playing with fire with a gasoline barrel, but he liked this kind of challenge full of life-threatening challenges, which were more exciting and passionate.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister, you will receive good news early tomorrow morning!"

Prince Baden asked back: "Why now? The Chinese Empire may take military action immediately!"

Hitler smiled and said, "First of all, you don't know that every time the Chinese Empire is in a war, the Chinese Empire must first mobilize the nationwide war. The Chinese Empire's military needs to convince Congress before it can start a war. And the Chinese Empire has a problem, called the division famous, and there is no excuse for war, so they will not do it easily. Therefore, tonight, the Chinese Empire will hold an emergency meeting tonight, and tomorrow morning, they will tell the world bad things about our German Empire through diplomatic channels, win the recognition of countries around the world, and then give us a twenty-four-hour ultimatum, forcing us to apologize, compensate, and then make various harsh demands. Those conditions must be unacceptable to us, so they have the excuse of using force."

Prince Baden was stunned, then nodded and smiled, "It's really true that you said this! It seems that you have studied the Chinese Empire a lot and know them very well!"

Hitler also wanted to show his talents more in front of Prince Baden, and only in this way can the other party feel that he is valuable.

"The Chinese Empire is the only superpower in the world. If we want to survive, we must have a deep understanding of the habits and interests of the Chinese Empire."

Prince Baden looked at Hitler with admiration and nodded, "Tell me more about this experience in the future!"

Hitler nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I'm willing to serve you!"

Prince Baden nodded with satisfaction when he saw Hitler's sincere attitude.

"You keep talking about how to give me good news tomorrow!"

Hitler smiled mysteriously and said, "I will take action tonight. Let's take the initiative and let the Chinese Empire cry tomorrow!"

"Prespondence? Are you crazy? Do you still think the Chinese Empire has no excuse to beat us?" Prince Baden suddenly became anxious.

Hitler said: "Prime Minister, do you think the Chinese Empire will accept our peace negotiations? No, don't be too naive. The Chinese Empire is determined to test our reactions. If we show a humbleness, the Chinese Empire will become more and more aggressive. Therefore, war is inevitable. We can just take the initiative to take advantage of it. Only by hurting the Chinese Empire can we intimidate them."

Prince Baden nodded and said, "What you said makes sense! Then how do you plan to take the initiative?"
