As a staunch champion of democracy, Rodriguez hated Franco very much, which was the reason why he could stand up and join the Republican Army with this warship when the civil war just broke out. For this reason, he even personally cleaned some soldiers sympathizing with the rebels on the warship.
Now, Madrid is surrounded by rebels, of which the backstage of the rebels is Italy and Germany!
Germany must be taught a lesson! Let them know that interference in the Spanish civil war comes at a price! Especially now, the German Navy dares to enter the Mediterranean, which makes them angry. They must defend their sea power!
However, Rodriguez also knows that when his warships directly compete with Germany's German class, there is no great chance of winning, because other people's warships have 283mm ship guns, while his own side has only 152mm main guns, and the two sides are not of the same order of magnitude at all.
So, only sneak attack!
Now, the sneak attack failed.
This made him extremely depressed. It is conceivable that it would be more difficult to attack the Germans in the future. After this incident, Germany will certainly be denounced internationally, and the attack of the Spanish Navy on the German Navy also violated international norms. After all, Germany has not declared war.
How should I go in the future? Rodriguez was a little depressed when he thought of it.
"Keep this course and turn west after dawn." Rodriguez told his deputy that he was tired and it was time to go back and have a rest.
It's ten o'clock in the evening.
Out of the bridge, Rodrigo blew the sea breeze. The wet sea breeze calmed his heart and smelled the peculiar fishy smell, which relaxed him when he grew up on the beach.
But, suddenly, his ears stood up and his spirit was extremely alert. Just now, he felt some light in the rear! He turned his head and looked back. He saw a bright flame on the sea behind him.
damn!
"Right full rudder!" Standing outside, Rodrigo shouted.
What are those flames? There is only one possibility, that is, the fire of the naval gun! At this time, you can't hear the sound, because the speed of light is much higher than the speed of sound.
Shooting! Just a few tens of seconds ago, the German in the rear launched its first volley!
Lukins chased three kilometers before ordering fire!
In an instant, the whole German was shaking violently. The 283mm naval gun in front of the triplet sent out a huge roar, and a hot flame came out of the muzzle, enveloping the front end of the whole German, and everything was illuminated.
Everyone subconsciously closes their eyes. At this time, if they see too bright places, they will not see anything for a short time.
Then, there was a big black smoke at the muzzle. In the black smoke, dozens of kilograms of warheads flew out!
Germany's most powerful naval gun is this 283mm naval gun, which can tear 340mm armor at a place of 15 kilometers! Now, the German, which secretly chased up from behind, opened fire three kilometers away. In this case, its armor piercing ability will be further increased.
It can be said that as long as you can hit, you can destroy your opponent!
In addition to the 283mm naval guns, the 150mm auxiliary guns on both sides are also firing fiercely!
The whole warship was shrouded in fire and smoke.
For the Libertad, it was like a fire from hell!
They were careless.
During the day, they had been waiting for the opportunity of sneak attack. When the opportunity was lost, they withdrew from the combat waters. For them, it was just an ordinary voyage.
They didn't realize that the Germans would catch up, let alone expect the Germans to fire!
Therefore, the fleet did not send more lookouts at all. No one knew that they were followed by terrible and fierce warships. Now, the artillery in their naval guns had fallen asleep.
Right full rudder!
Only Rodrigo found the other party's shooting at the moment of the other party's firing and urgently ordered the right full rudder.
In this case, the projection area is very small. As long as you have a fast maneuver, you can avoid the shells fired by the other party!
Unfortunately, he forgot that fast maneuvering depends on high speed. Now it's only 15 knots. The slow 9000 ton warship can't turn around at all!
"Boom!"
A 283mm shell accurately hit the rear of the slender Libertad, the 152 mm turret of the triple, and was blown away at this moment!
The protection of the Libertad was seriously insufficient. The turret behind it was not completely closed at all, and the gun shield was also very thin. 283 mm armor piercing bounced over, it was effortless!
The shell continued to go down, through the armor under the turret and into the engine room below. Then, there was a greater explosion!
Two boilers burning heavy oil were destroyed! In addition to killing more than 20 people on the spot, the fire spread rapidly from the rear.
"Boom!" A 150 mm sub gun shell hit the warship again. It flew over the high mast and chimney behind and hit the bridge in front!
What a cruel shot!
Rodriguez didn't have time to avoid. When the huge air wave came over, he immediately felt his body cut off by countless throwing knives. He didn't even scream, but was thrown down in the air from the platform of the bridge!
On the bridge, there was a blur of flesh and blood, and there were almost no survivors!
But the Libertad hasn't sunk yet!
Just now, a right full rudder let it avoid two 283 mm shells and three 150 mm shells.
But now, it has no chance!
"Second volley, target, Libertad!" On the German bridge, Lukins continued to shout.
At first, the sea was still hazy, but now the fire on the Libertad has illuminated the whole sea! Therefore, the second round of artillery fire is easier to shoot!
The automatic loading mechanism quickly reloads the ammunition in place. This 283mm naval gun is quite mature. The second loading is completed in only 17 seconds!
FireStarter!
Although it is a fully enclosed turret, there is already dirty air in it. When the naval gun is loaded, the exhaust gas comes in. The artillery are highly motivated. They aim again and fire again!
"Boom!" The whole warship, with the vibration, 283 mm shells, angrily projected again!
The shell drew a beautiful curve in the air and landed accurately on the burning Libertad.
God can't save the flagship of the Spanish Republican Army!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
