The warship sank so quickly that most of the French naval officers and soldiers were thrown into the sea before they even had time to put on their life jackets. Most of them could not return to the shore. The huge whirlpool generated when the warship sank caused 90% of the people who fell into the water to suck into the sea. In the end, the warship only survived more than 70 people!

"Okay, let's look for the next target of attack!" The bomber after completing the attack began to retreat, and Major Coom had not left yet. He still needed to guide other bombers to continue attacking. This time, he targeted a British battleship!

In the battle just now, the Marborrow, which was attacked by the Earl's fleet, became the second victim. The warship had been hit by the German battleship before, and then several scattered bombers attacked the unlucky battleship and set fire on the rear deck of the battleship. Now, even though the British destroyer next to it kept releasing smoke screens, the pillar of fire that soared into the sky still indicated the position of the battleship. It was like a star in the dark, and it was difficult for you to pay attention to it...

So, a group of German bombers began to hover over the British battleship, waiting for the smoke screen to dissipate, and then launch an attack! This is the last wave of attack aircraft in the Bavarian Air Force's attack. The British estimated that the total number of aircraft in this wave is about 120. Other aircraft were delayed due to flights in the wrong route, or could not come due to mechanical failures. Moreover, the number of attack aircraft of this wave of bombers was relatively small, with only 60 carrying bombs and torpedoes in total. Therefore, it is already very good to be able to concentrate more than 20 aircraft in this wave!

"There are actually two warships!" When the smoke screen dissipated, the Germans were surprised to find that there was an armored cruiser next to the Marboro. If Earl Spey saw it, he could recognize it at a glance. This was the only armored cruiser that the British had survived after launching the first wave of attacks. Perhaps because of their good luck, the warship did not receive any damage in the battle just now, and its two sister ships had been destroyed. But now? The Dionys armored cruiser, which insisted on covering the Marboro, was also included in the attack list!

"Their air defense is indeed better than the French." Major Coom's landline was spared in the air and then expressed his appreciation for the British formation.

The eight destroyers formed a circular defense array on the periphery of the main battleship. The Marboro was naturally in the center of the circle, while the Baccarat armored cruiser was located behind the main battleship. Its anti-aircraft artillery and machine guns could cover the Marboro from the side and rear at the same time. The arrangement distance between the entire formation was very reasonable, and the destroyers on the periphery were stuck at the best distance for torpedo aircraft attacks. In other words, the destroyer was about 800 meters away from the Marboro. If the torpedo security was to attack, it might have to directly hit the anti-aircraft artillery of the destroyer!

If the attack method just now is adopted, fighter attacks destroyers, interferes with air defense fire, and then dive bombers launch the first round of attacks to suppress the main ship's air defense, then that's OK, but because the opponent's defense is tight, the loss may be relatively large. So Major Coom is a little hesitant. However, a few minutes later, when a dense roar of artillery came from a distance, the Luftwaffe finally no longer has to be confused! Because Earl Spee has led the team to fight back!
