Chapter 995: A Counterattack 2

It took only 7 minutes in total. The French was like a dead fish, floating northeastward under the influence of huge inertia and sea currents. At this moment, Prince Eugen decisively aimed the artillery at the second-place battleship Paris battleship! The three French battleships behind finally realized the tiger hiding beside them. The three French battleships stared at Prince Eugen, who had just succeeded in the sneak attack!&1t;/p>

A tiger can easily slap a wolf to death, but when three wolves stare at the tiger fiercely, the tiger is also weak! At such a close distance, Prince Eugen cannot guarantee that his armor is absolutely reliable! The straight line distance is only 7 to 8 kilometers! This is a close fight with blood and blood, and in this case, the balance of the God of War naturally tends to be the one with more ships and more cannons!&1t;/p>

Prince Eugen suddenly released a large number of smoke screens, like a squid spraying out ink, blending his figure into the dark night. The so-called highest level of pretending is to leave after pretending, no, it means to leave after stealing! Pachner is very clear about the current situation. Using the advantage of the first move, he can kill a French main battleship, but facing other warships? That is obviously overthinking! How many battles are there, because they don’t know how to advance and retreat, the first half of the scenery and the second half of the miserable?!&1t;/p>

Pachner knew his weight. He could guarantee that if he didn't leave, before the Count turned the gun to support him, the French would definitely beat Prince Eugen halfway to death! So, after confirming that the French had been abolished, the Brigadier General decisively ordered him to run away. If he persisted, he would definitely use one fearless exchange for another fearless rhythm, and he would lose a lot!&1t;/p>

The eight main guns pointed to the second-ranked battleship of the Paris battleship, which poses the greatest threat to us. The two Dandong-class battleships behind them have limited firepower and their locations have limited firepower, so they don't care for the time being. However, due to the equally unsightly shooting world, only 6 artillery can fire on the Paris!&1t;/p>

The shells fired by more than 12-inch cannons within a range of 7 to 9 kilometers can be described as horror. A waterfall formed by steel and flames quickly covered Prince Eugen. Although it was covered by smoke, the fire generated during the emergency shooting just now had exposed the position of the sneak attacker. Even if the Brigadier General's action was fast enough, Prince Eugen still got three shells!&1t;/p>

The front armor of the turret with a thickness of 38omm is still very reliable. The No. 4 turret directly knocked over a 40-kilogram armor-piercing projectile with its forehead. However, the side string armor seemed not so reliable. A shell hit the main armor belt in the middle and rear of the hull. With a loud bang, a large piece of armor plate was directly peeled off from the hull, and countless shrapnel jumped in the next compartment. Fortunately, there was an oil tank behind. In addition to the hundreds of tons of fuel flowing out, the fuel layer up to 1 meter thick greatly reduced the destructive power generated by the explosion. The other shell landed very well, and it was not biased and directly smashed the 35omm main gun on the left of the turret No. 3!&1t;/p>

At the same time, the firepower of dozens of secondary guns should not be underestimated. A series of picy acid high-explosive bombs lit a big fire on Prince Eugen's deck. Even if there was smoke, the French could still determine the approximate position of the other party! However, everyone was fighting for bayonets. After the French tried hard to stab the "Prince" three times, Prince Eugen also threw a shell on the face of the Parisian!&1t;/p>

A 35omm shell directly hit the cannon mount under the second turret of Paris. After easily tearing off the armor, it hit the bomb-transport device full of injection drugs and shells. Although it was a stinking egg, it still detonated tons of shells after the violent impact! (Note that it was the shell, not the explosives) A ​​large ball of flame blew out from the thunder, and the entire warship was shaking in the violent explosion. The rolling smoke rose into the sky, covering the main rangefinder of the Paris under the blow of the sea breeze...&1t;/p>

Because the two turrets of the ship were too close, a cracked armor plate directly hit the cannon seat of the No. 1 turret in front, and the violent impact made the artillery temporarily stuck! In this way, the combat effectiveness of the Parisian was lost by more than half! After the Parisian was damaged, although Prince Eugen was still at a disadvantage, the pressure was greatly reduced. In a short period of time, there seemed to be no major problems!&1t;/p>

In history, Brigadier General Pachner was lucky enough to almost be called the "Son of the Adriatic Sea". With the blessing of his own "luck" and the great and lucky name of Prince Eugen, this plane was quite lucky. Although the successive hits made the warship scarred, it did not penetrate the core compartment after all. After loading hundreds of tons of sea water, Prince Eugen gradually opened the distance between him and the French battleship fleet!&1t;/p>

At this time, on another battlefield, Earl Spee suddenly appeared. The main gun group of battleships, which had been shining with deadly flames at a distance of about 10 kilometers, seemed to no longer aim at themselves... and judging from the flames that kept firing out from afar, the French fleet seemed to be obviously restrained by another force...&1t;/p>

"Haha." The Count looked at the three French armored cruisers in the distance who were still trying to get up, showing a cruel sneer! It was like watching three fat sheep sent to the mouths of hungry tigers! The boss of the backstage didn't care about you anymore, and you still dared to rush up?!&1t;/p>

The 2O 35ommm cannons of the three fast battleships were quickly aimed at the French armored cruiser, which was still a little confused under the command of the rangefinder. Accompanied by the thunder, the earl's fleet turned back like a tiger that had escaped its shackles! In an instant, the offensive and defensive momentum of both sides completely reversed! After the hyena, who was still pretending to be a tiger, lost its support, had no power to fight back in the face of the earl's anger!&1t;/p>

The Reshadier was the first battleship to make a hit, and a violent steel storm swept the armored cruiser of the Gambida, rushing in the front. The "various illegal buildings" on the French ship became the best target for aiming. Tons of shells hit the poor armored cruiser at a rate of two times the sound, like an iron ball smashing a watermelon. The scattered cabins were torn into pieces, and 6 towering chimneys fell 4 in more than ten seconds. After a burst of flames and explosions, the entire battleship was in a mess.&1t;/p>

The shells hitting the armor belt of the hull left deep bullet holes at the waterline. The armor plates were blown to pieces. If the 35omm gun attacked the battleship-level armor at most even if it was penetrated, it would be a bullet hole at most. Then, if the armored cruiser-level armor with a thickness of only 7 inches to 9 inches at close range, it would be a heavy hammer! It would be a crushing effect when hit!&1t;/p>
