The first thousand two hundred and twenty-six chapters break through the obstacles

With the help of the command system, the outstanding results were achieved in several rounds of attacks and a ship was sunk. Although it had not completely sunk at this time, the trend of sinking was very obvious. The officers of the Scher fleet were all experienced officers, and they knew very clearly that this ship could no longer be saved.

As for the others, they just lost their ability to move and did not even sink. In naval battles, speed is the basis for the survival of a warship. Once they lose their power, it is equivalent to a coffin. During the Battle of Jutland, the British Black Prince Battle Patrol mistakenly sent a signal to the enemy, so that after being attacked by four battleships at close range, they immediately turned into a fire group. It is because of this that although Germany lost its strategic advantage, it still had the advantage in the Battle of Jutland, and its hit rate was much higher than that of Britain.

As long as you stay for two or three minutes, the hit rate of the Sher fleet is enough to send all three heavy patrols to the bottom of the sea. Unfortunately, in this race against time, the Sher fleet has no three minutes to waste. He did not pursue those heavy patrols who have lost their ability to move. Sher was very clear in his heart that even if they annihilate all of this fleet, it would have no effect on the fleet. The reason is very simple. His purpose is to reach the Baltic Strait as quickly as possible. Only by rushing to the strait and passing through the strait is the victory. Otherwise, no matter how many fleets annihilated, unless you kill twice the number of Allied battleships, it will be enough, otherwise it will be a loss.

A few hours ago, when Scher was sure to leave Betty's fleet, he had already sent a message to the High Seas fleet. In fact, starting from the Baltic Seas where Scher's fleet approached, the High Seas fleet had already set off, but it was not sure Scher came to the Baltic Strait and had not stepped forward and cruised outside. Now, in order to cooperate with Scher, he was already on the road. It is expected that in 40 minutes, almost at the same time as Scher's fleet arrived, it would face the British warships guarding the entrance to the Baltic Sea.

In order to gain space for the Scher fleet, there are only 18 high seas fleets. They will rush towards the Jericho fleet composed of 30 main battleships without hesitation. It will not be a decisive battle. The main purpose is to lead them away. However, the High Seas fleet and the Jericho fleet are too obvious, with a gap of 12. They are almost not on the same level. No matter how careful they are, they will suffer some damage. If they can arrive earlier, the High Seas fleet will bear less casualties. Otherwise, even if he successfully returns to Germany, the price will be a large amount of losses from the High Seas fleet, which Scher does not want to see.

What Scher can do at this moment is to minimize the time of delay. After killing one, the road ahead has actually been opened. Next, continue to move forward and open the gap. As long as you continue to move forward, you won’t waste a lot of time.

The fleet started its maximum speed, and every minute was racing against time. The already separated blocking fleet still stood in front. This was not intentional, but could not dodge. These were three destroyers, even at a fast speed. The new destroyer with a speed of more than 36 knots could not dodge when facing the Sher fleet, and just hit the battleship's range.

Even when you are marching, even if you do not force the attack on the opponent's warship, these meat at your mouth must be eaten, which shows the advantages of the command system. During the marching, it took less than 30 seconds to complete the aiming. Then, a well-trained gunner, under the command of the command system, hit the fleet with one round of shells, and within 5 rounds, the intercepted ship was accurately hit.

This time, three ships were shot together, and there were still more or less. Unlike the heavy patrol, if the heavy patrol was hit by a large-diameter 15-inch armor-piercing projectile, it would be severely damaged at most and could float up. Fortunately, it could even move. A destroyer of about 1,000 tons could not resist the kinetic energy of such a huge shell, especially the ones that hit the critical point. One of them hit the target directly from the joint between the fore deck and the turret. The destroyer's thin armor could not resist the invasion of the 15-inch armor-piercing projectile. It was like paper paste, and almost instantly penetrated the entire hull and penetrated two large holes at once. A large amount of sea water was infused in and sank in almost a few minutes.

Although the three ships were not sunk at the same time, they seemed to be different. The speed of their sinking was much faster than the gravity patrol, and they almost didn't struggle. They sank into the sea one after another. Even the sailors on the warship had no time to escape. Even if they jumped into the sea immediately and swam for a minute or two, they could not escape the vortex brought by the sinking of the warship. Therefore, almost none of the sailors on the three destroyers escaped. On the rapidly sinking warship, for the sailors, they were just an iron coffin. Once they sank, they would all be finished.

In the distance, the fleet that was lucky enough to escape a disaster looked at the Sher fleet as if they were looking at the gods. They were all members of the main fleet. They did not get on the battleships, but they also knew the capabilities of the British battleships. Even if 18 ships were together, it would not be possible to sink these ships so quickly. What exactly were their gunners? Could it be that all the elite gunners were concentrated on these nine ships? But even so, it was impossible to be so fast. The main gun's volley did not stop at all, and even their warships were moving, without forming battle lines, and had no connection with each other, but they could volley extremely accurately.

The strength shown by the Sher fleet clearly told the blocking fleet that they could no longer block Scher's fleet according to the original plan. The commander of the blocking fleet even believed that as long as the other party was given half an hour, the other party would send them all to the bottom of the sea. How much time would be delayed in half an hour? As naval officers, they did not have that spirit of sacrifice, or if they saw whether it was valuable, they might have to try it. No one would be willing to sacrifice worthless sacrifice. Deep in their hearts, they still believed that the main fleet could definitely withstand the Scher fleet, or even defeat them. The main ship, let the main ship deal with it. They would still chase behind and keep a distance.

In this way, the blocking fleet concentrated a little. They followed the Scher fleet 10 nautical miles away, and they dared not approach because the Scher fleet had already shown a strong hit rate and range. What if they were aimed by the opponent, they suddenly shot it. However, the blocking fleet forgot that it was only more than 20 nautical miles away from the estuary of the Baltic Sea. In this sea area, it is the most concentrated place for the entire British fleet. Although the 30 main battleships gathered together and sent a huge blocking fleet, there were still hundreds of warships surrounding the main battleships. They kept patrolling, guarding against the sneak attacks of destroyers, and also guarding the sneak attacks of submarines, and escorting the main fleet.

Under such circumstances, Scher's fleet entered the British defense circle. With the crazy running of Scher's fleet, all the warships patrolling outside could not avoid being encountered by Scher's fleet. When the first ship entered the range of Scher's fleet's naval guns, the face of the commander of the sniper fleet changed suddenly.

Apart more than 13 nautical miles apart, this distance is not far in the naval battle, but it cannot convey any information. He almost watched the ship, and rushed up without hesitation when he discovered the Sher fleet, but it was locked by the Sher fleet. After three rounds of volleys, this 4,000-ton light patrol was hit by 12 large-caliber armor-piercing bombs at a distance of 3,000 meters, and it sank faster than other ships.

In the following process, the same thing happened one after another. Most of these ships were destroyers and light patrols. Under normal circumstances, these warships could still play a role in blocking. Facing the Sher fleet that was like a god-assisted, there was almost no obstacle. In a distance of less than 20 nautical miles, 27 ships were sunk, all two or three rounds, and at most four rounds of volleys ended. The sunk was the slowest for 5 minutes. The fastest one was directly attacked by four large-caliber naval guns and attacked all key parts. They were cut into three sections on the spot and quickly sank into the sea water.

The inconsistent communication between the fleets caused the British Navy to receive the report after most of the warships were sunk. They reported it as much as possible. However, the speed of the Scher fleet of more than 26 knots allowed them to gain very little time. When the Scher fleet approached within 10 nautical miles of the main fleet, the main fleet received a summary of the losses. In just half an hour, 27 ships sank. In addition, the previous heavy patrol, three destroyers, a total of 31 ships, 4,000 people were killed in battle, and no more than 500 survivors could be accepted. Even the rich British Navy could not accept such casualties. The order was not allowed to be blocked by the fleet, and it was still too late to ask the pursuit fleet to speed up.

The Scher fleet has already passed the dangerous period. The current fleet is pursuing. Because of speed, the Betty fleet has been pulled away by about 75 nautical miles. Even the fastest ship will take 2 hours, and the main battleship will be at least 3 hours. It can be said that after the war begins, it is impossible to get support from the Betty fleet in a short time, but Jericho doesn't care much. 30 ships against 9 ships, even if the fleet attacks very fiercely, so what? This is a wall of iron, and the only regret is that the loss is a little large.

While Jericho ordered his fleet to start turning, striving to be able to intercept Schell's fleet before the ship continued to lose, an alarm sounded from the other side, 18 main battleships and several former dreadnoughts formed the high seas fleet, which appeared on the east side of the Baltic Sea. They were forming battle lines and gaining the upper hand. (~^~)
