Chapter 541 The purpose of the Germans 4)

This is not the Tomahawk missile in later generations. If you say you are shooting the left window, you will never hit the right window. The error accuracy is calculated in meters.

The naval guns of this era are good enough to hit the target if they only have mechanical shooting commanders. In order not to damage the main structure of the opponent's hull, their elevation angles are quite high and they will never hit the hull.

Either hit the bridge or blast it far away.

Undoubtedly, most of the shells were shot away, but one hit!

This 283mm armor-piercing projectile hit the chimney in the middle of the bridge!

Whether it is a coal-fired boiler or a heavy oil boiler, a thick chimney is needed. When speeding up, the black smoke coming out can be seen clearly from more than ten kilometers away.

Even some cruise ships will deliberately build tall windows to form the unique beauty of this era.

The steel warhead at the front end of the armor-piercing bomb directly penetrated the weak steel plate of the chimney. Then, a violent explosion occurred in the copper cylinder weighing 5 kilograms.

"Boom!" A huge explosion sounded, and with the explosion, shrapnel flew everywhere, and the high pressure generated by the explosion completely tore the chimney apart!

The chimney is integrated with the bridge. When the chimney is exploded, it means that the bridge is also exploded!

As the explosion sounded, several sailors fell down screaming in the cabin of the bridge next to the chimney.

At the same time, when the chimney is blown up, the smoke inside the chimney no longer rises along the chimney, but goes in all directions!

When the entire smoke wrapped the bridge, a panic began to spread in the hearts of the French sailors.

The bridge is finished, the senior commander is finished, what should we do with the remaining sailors?

The deck operation stopped again. In fact, they had long thought that it was useless to release carrier-based aircraft now! At this distance, naval guns are important.

"What are you panic? Keep cheering me up, we haven't lost yet!" General Labode shouted loudly on the bridge.

The black smoke filled the air, making people cough involuntarily, but there was no pain in their bodies, which meant that they were all still alive.

At this time, General Laboud was still very calm. As a veteran, he would not leave his post at such a time!

Haven't lost yet!

Labold's confidence infected everyone, and Captain Colonel Gerald also shouted: "Enforce damage control, report quickly, carrier-based aircraft, continue to take off!"

Continue to release carrier-based aircraft! Let the Germans know how powerful they are!

The broadcast system was still intact, and Colonel Gerald's order spread throughout the ship. Suddenly, they were ready to continue fighting.

However, the Germans will not give them a chance!

The shame of the Treaty of Versailles was imprinted in the minds of every German. They had been in strict training. They moved very quickly, and almost immediately after the first volley was completed, they quickly loaded the second time.

Each cannon requires 12 people to operate.

A transporter moved the front-end ammunition to the ammunition lifter, while the main ammunition was transported by a slide and a pulley. (The large-caliber naval guns are all divided into two parts, the warhead and the bullet barrel.)

The left gun bomb lifting machine sends the shells between the left gun and the middle gun, and the other two ammunition lifting machines sends the shells between the middle gun and the right gun... The middle gun assisted ammunition is sent behind the middle gun, and sent into the barrel through a tiltable barrel. The two-wing auxiliary ammunition lifting machine sends the ammunition to the side and rear of the two cannons and transports it through a cable device.

All this went very quickly. It took only ten seconds to complete the second loading. Then the muzzle began to rise and stabilize according to the angle set by the gunner.

"fire!"

After getting the signal of loading and aiming, Colonel Lansdorf ordered the fire again without hesitation!

Amid the violent roar, the black smoke from the launching medicine enveloped the entire Earl Spey battleship, and the nine armor-piercing bombs fired for the second time flew towards the opposite side!

The advantage of aircraft carriers lies in the long-range strikes of carrier-based aircraft. The aircraft carrier is definitely not fighting bayonets at sea. In this case, German warships are simply fighting against each other!

On the bridge, senior French Navy officers were still struggling in the black smoke. They blocked the explosion hole behind them. The smoke on the bridge slightly decreased. Almost just as they were looking at the visible objects, the other party's second volley of shells flew over.

"Crazy!" The glass on the bridge suddenly shattered, and almost everyone's pupils opened wide. Looking at the huge armor-piercing bullet, it almost flew past the edge of his own bridge!

I'm afraid it's only a few centimeters away! When the warhead flies by, the air pressure brought by it immediately shatters all the glass!

Fortunately, I didn't hit it!

Labold's face turned pale in an instant, and he had already thought of the other party's purpose.

The opponent's shots were all long-range shots. It was definitely not that the opponent's aim was wrong, but that the opponent did this on purpose!

The Germans did not want to sink their warships, but just wanted to capture them intact. In other words, the other party already knew the secret of their warships!

what to do?

The other party kept firing at its own bridge. If the bridge was destroyed, the aircraft carrier would lose its maneuverability, and at least the servo would be unable to operate.

The Germans made this idea. As long as the bridge was destroyed, there would be no second way except to be captured, but this was absolutely impossible.

Even if the ship is sunk, it cannot be cheaper for the Germans.

"Gerary, I order you to open the water gate at the bottom when necessary and let our warships sink themselves," said General Rabod.

As a naval officer, warships are the sustenance of his life. When facing the risk of being captured, he would rather sink himself than give him a favor. This is almost the practice of many naval officers and soldiers. The most casual way is the German navy at the end of World War I, which is so beautiful.

And now, they have to do this!

Colonel Geralry nodded: "I understand, general."

Geraly knew the preciousness of the goods he had transported, so they would rather sink themselves than be captured by the Germans. Now, they are determined to die.

At this time, on the deck, the second carrier-based aircraft was ready to take off and sink, but the worst plan was that they still had hope!

The staff on the deck were still busy nervously. At this time, the German's third volley began again!

How fast is the German naval gun fire? There is absolutely no problem with three to five rounds per minute!
