Jagged Germany

Chapter 1265: volley

"General, almost all the capital ships of the islanders have an advantage in speed. I am afraid it will be difficult for us to catch up. Especially the 'King-class' battleships are too slow to catch up." Major General Felix said.

Lieutenant General Theodor Burchard nodded, of course he knew this.

"Let the 'Derfflinger-class' battlecruisers speed up. Although their speed is not as fast as the islanders' 'Ki-class' battleships, other battleships are faster than the 'Derfflinger-class' battlecruisers." The cruiser will slow down a lot." Lieutenant General Theodor Burchardy ordered.

"General, is it dangerous to let the three Derfflinger-class battleships pursue alone? Once they are besieged by the islanders, our losses may be even greater." Major General Felix was a little worried.

"Tell the captains of the ships to control the distance of engagement, and don't give the islanders a chance to besiege. Keep the sea search radar on. If this is the case, it is impossible for the island fleet to besiege us."

Major General Felix nodded, and immediately conveyed Lieutenant General Theodor Burchardy's order.

The battle line of the German fleet was disbanded immediately. The three 'Derfflinger-class' battlecruisers began to accelerate continuously, while the three 'King-class' battleships gradually fell behind. After all, the maximum speed of the "Derfflinger-class" battlecruiser can soar to more than 27 knots. The "King-class" battleship can only maintain a speed of 24 knots at most.historical

"Ask General Otto Schneewendt, where is his fleet? The islanders have begun to retreat. If they still can't arrive, then we can only watch those islanders flee." Lieutenant General Odor Burshadi said. If possible, he certainly hopes to sink all the capital ships of the island nation's fleet in this battle. But he knew that this was impossible, so he could only sink as many capital ships of the island nation's fleet as possible.

"Okay, General." Major General Felix said. Now that they have an absolute advantage, the next step is to find a way to further expand their advantage as much as possible.

Soon, they received a call back from the battleship formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet.

"General, General Otto Schneewendt's fleet is fifty kilometers north of us. They are preparing to outflank the rear of the islanders." Rear Admiral Felix reported.

"Very good, tell General Otto Schneewendt that their speed should be faster. Otherwise, we can only watch the islanders slip away." Lieutenant General Theodor Burchardi said .

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The battle is still going on. Although the speed of the three "Derfflinger-class" battlecruisers of the German fleet cannot catch up with the "Ki-class" battleships of the island navy, they can surpass other battlecruisers of the island nation. The battleship 'Tosa' was about to arrive at the battlefield, but now it had to turn around and evacuate. However, the three "Derfflinger-class" battlecruisers of the German fleet targeted it, making the battleship miserable.

If they only rely on their own strength, it is obviously impossible to withstand the attack of the three "Derfflinger-class" battlecruisers of the German Navy. As a last resort, the battleship 'Tosa' had no choice but to ask for help from the flagship to slow down the speed of 'Suruga' and 'Omi', and wait for them at least. In that case, they won't be at a disadvantage in three-on-three.

Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo had no choice but to slow down. However, he did not dare to be too slow. Once the three "King-class" battleships of the German fleet catch up, they will be at a disadvantage again.

Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo didn't know that another German fleet was about to join the battlefield.

The seven capital ships of the German Navy's Indian Ocean Fleet are entering the battlefield at high speed. These seven capital ships are four 'Nassau-class' battleships and three 'Blücher-class' battlecruisers. The "Nassau-class" battleship is the "New Iron Duke-class" battleship that the British Navy did not complete in the last world war. The "Blücher-class" battlecruiser is an unfinished "Prestige-class" battlecruiser.

After the end of the war, the construction of these warships was restarted with the input of Germany, and the construction was finally completed.

The "Nassau-class" battleship has a displacement of more than 40,000 tons, is equipped with three triple-mounted 50-caliber 380mm main guns, and has a maximum speed of 24 knots. The "Blücher-class" battlecruiser has a displacement of 39,000 tons, and its maximum speed has reached an astonishing 31 knots.

On the battleship Nassau, the flagship of the formation, the commander of the formation, Lieutenant General Otto Schneewendt, looked calm. However, the eagerness in his eyes betrayed his current mood.

The battleship formation of the Pacific Fleet fought so beautifully in this battle, and sank four capital ships of the island navy. Although it lost one of its own, another was severely damaged. But overall, it's still worth it. Not to mention, the battleship formation of the Pacific Fleet is still chasing the navy of the island country, and it may be able to reap some victories in the next battle.

This made Lieutenant General Otto Schneewent very envious. He couldn't wait to join the battle and sink the capital ships of the island navy, proving to the world that the battleship formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet is also powerful.

"How long will it take us to reach the battlefield?" Lieutenant General Otto Schneewent asked.

"General, it is estimated that we will be able to enter the battle in an hour." The formation chief of staff, Major General Abraham, said.

Lieutenant Admiral Otto Schneewendt nodded: "Let the ships prepare for battle. Once we find the island nation's fleet, we will immediately go into battle. This time, we must kill all the island nation's capital ships!"

"Yes, General." Major General Abraham nodded.

An hour later, two targets were spotted on the radar screen of the battleship 'Nassau', the flagship of the battleship formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet.

"General, two targets were found 35 kilometers southwest of us. According to the information obtained from the battleship formation of the Pacific Fleet, it was preliminarily determined that they were two Fuso-class battleships of the islanders." The radar officer reported.

Lieutenant General Otto Schneewent could not help but shine.

"All ships speed up, and get rid of these two 'Fuso-class' battleships first!" Lieutenant General Otto Schneewendt ordered.

"Yes, General."

The seven capital ships of the battleship formation of the Indian Ocean Fleet of the German Navy rushed towards the two "Fuso-class" battleships of the island fleet at high speed.
