"Order the 1st Battleship Squadron and the 2nd Battleship Squadron to form a battle line, and the 3rd Battleship Squadron and the 4th Battleship Squadron to form a battle line!" Admiral Reinhard Scheer ordered.
There are 23 battleships in the High Seas Fleet. If they all form a battle line, the battle line will be too long. The flagship in front of the battle line has no idea what happened behind it. Therefore, it is more appropriate to form two battle lines.
Among the two battle lines, the first battle line is naturally the main force. There are 12 battleships, including five 'Bavaria-class' battleships, five 'King-class' battleships and two 'Caesar-class' battleships.
The second battle line is composed of three "Caesar-class" battleships, four "Helgoland-class" battleships and four "Nassau-class" battleships.
Admiral John Jellicoe is also conducting combat deployments on the battleship 'Revenge', the flagship of the combined fleet.
"The Germans are divided into two lines of battle, so let us do as they wish. Let General Martin lead his 11 battleships against the German line of 11 battleships. The remaining 15 main ships ship, another line of battle against the Germans. Our time is running out, and we must defeat the German battlecruisers before they come back. Otherwise, we will be at an absolute disadvantage!" John? Admiral Jellicoe ordered.
Lieutenant General David Beatty nodded. There was no objection to the arrangement of Admiral John Jellicoe.
Admiral John Jellicoe's intention was undoubtedly to assemble 15 battleships and first defeat the German Navy's battle line consisting of 12 battleships. In this battle, they have the advantage of three battleships. If you can win, then the next battle will be much easier to fight.
But the prerequisite is that they must be able to win.
The first battle line of the German Navy, although there are only 12 battleships, they are all the most advanced and powerful battleships of the German Navy. The "Bavaria-class" battleship and the "King-class" battleship are both powerful battleships with thick armor and equipped with 380mm main guns. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the most powerful battleship in the world. Two "Caesar-class" battleships, although equipped with 343mm main guns. However, the 343mm main gun with 50 times the caliber still has a very powerful armor-piercing ability.
Both sides wanted to have this duel, so the battle began naturally.
The first battle line of the German Navy sailed southeast, and the second battle line sailed southwest. This made this naval battle divided into two battlefields. Dozens of battleships on both sides can also be deployed.
The United Fleet of the Allied Powers followed closely. In terms of time, in order to defeat the German Navy before the battlecruisers of the German Navy arrived on the battlefield, the combined fleet of the Allied Powers couldn't wait to have a duel.
Half an hour later, the battle started. The first battle line of the British Navy took the lead in shelling. The 15 battleships undoubtedly have a great advantage in terms of number compared to the 12 battleships of the German Navy's first battle line.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The four twin-mounted 381mm main guns of the battleship 'Revenge' fired first. Immediately afterwards, the battleships 'Resolution', 'Queen Elizabeth', 'War Spite', 'Warrior', 'Tiger', 'Giant' and 'Intrepid' also opened fire. . The battleships 'Normandy', 'Gascony', 'Fodelan', 'Brittany' and 'Guba' of the French Navy, 'Andre? The battleship Duilio and the Earl of Cavour also started firing.
Admiral John Jellicoe obviously knew how powerful the German Navy's "Bavaria-class" battleships and "King-class" battleships were. Therefore, he placed the breakthrough on the two "Caesar-class" battleships behind the battle line.
The five battleships of the French Navy are located at the end of the battle line. They were ordered to attack with all their strength and sink the two battleships of the German Navy. As for the other German battleships, the other battleships in the battle line would hold up.
This mission made Admiral Lame very satisfied. In his opinion, there should be no problem in sinking five battleships of the French Navy and sinking two battleships of the German Navy.
Under the command of Admiral Lame, the three battleships of the "Normandy class" attacked the battleship "King Albert" of the German Navy, which was the second-to-last battleship in the battle line, and the remaining battleships "Bretagne" and "Guba" The battleship HMS ', then besieged the battleship 'Lewittpold Regent' which was at the end of the battle line.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The shells continued to fall into the sea, splashing jets of water into the sky.
On the battleship "Bavaria", the flagship of the German Navy, Admiral Reinhard Scheer did not change his face. Lieutenant General Hipper had gone to command the 2nd battle line.
"Hmph! The British put their hope of victory on us. Does he really think that with those **** battleships, he can defeat us? Order the ships and start firing, let the British and French Look at the Italians, the warships of the German Empire are the most powerful in the world!" Admiral Reinhard Scheer snorted coldly.
The United Fleet is on this battle line, although it has the numerical advantage of three battleships. However, their disadvantages are not small. Battleships like the "Giant" and the "Dreadnought" are basically used to recharge. Its 305mm main gun with 45 times the caliber is nothing to the thick armor of the German Navy's "King-class" battleship. It is simply impossible to penetrate the armor of the 'King-class' battleship. Admiral Reinhard Scheer is fully convinced that the Combined Fleet has sunk the "Giant" before sinking the battleships "King Albert" and "King Regent" of the German Navy. ' and the battleship 'Dreadnought'. The 380mm main gun of the "King-class" battleship can easily tear their armor to shreds.
At this moment, the distance between the two battle lines is 15 kilometers. The German Navy deliberately kept this distance, because the main guns of their battleships are all large-caliber main guns. At this distance, performance can be fully utilized. Among the battleships of the United Fleet, many battleships use 305mm main guns. At this distance, the 305mm main gun is somewhat disadvantaged. Because the distance is too far, the shells of the 305mm main gun are too light, and they float when fired, making it difficult to hit the target.
