“Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
On the sea, the cannons rumbled.
The Russian Navy, the Gallic Navy, the Caesar Navy, and the Austro-Hungarian Navy, a total of 14 battleships, as well as a large number of heavy cruisers, armored cruisers, light cruisers, protective cruisers and destroyers, fought fiercely in the narrow waters of the southern Adriatic Sea.
The battle between the 14 battleships was undoubtedly the most tragic and striking.
However, the battles between other cruisers and destroyers were also very fierce. However, the Gallic and Russian navies had almost overwhelming superiority in cruisers and destroyers. The Navy of the Kingdom of Caesars and the Austro-Hungarian Navy, completely suppressed.
Almost all of their cruisers and destroyers were under siege. Moreover, it does not have the slightest advantage in the performance of individual ships.
In such a situation, cruisers and destroyers of the Caesars Navy and the Austro-Hungarian Navy, losses began to soar.
And the battle between the capital ships was undoubtedly placed on high hopes by the Caesars Navy and the Austro-Hungarian Navy. They hope to win the battle of the capital ship and turn the tide of the battle.
It’s just that the initial plan of the Caesars Navy and the Austro-Hungarian Navy was already unworkable when the Russian Navy did not choose to stand idly by and did not see death.
Next, they could only compete with the Russian and Gallic navies for strength, and even luck.
If they’re lucky, maybe they still have a chance.
However, it soon became clear to the Caesars and Austro-Hungarian Navy that they had no chance of victory.
“Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The 50-caliber 356-mm guns of the two Izmail-class battle cruisers of the Russian Navy opened heavy fire, and armor-piercing shells weighing hundreds of kilograms smashed hard into the battleship Julio Caesar in the Kingdom of Caesar.
At this moment, the battleship Giulio Caesar was cooperating with the battleship Leonardo da Vinci to besiege the battleship Paris of the Gallic Navy. So much so that they did not attack the two Izmail-class battleships of the Tsarist Russian Navy at all, and were completely in a passive state of beating.
The same is true of the battleship Dante Aligue Icheri of the Caesar Kingdom Navy. When they attacked the battleship Gaul with all the artillery fire, they themselves were besieged by two Mikhail I-class battleships of the Russian Navy. At the same time, the battleship Gallic of the Gallic State Navy is not muddy. Also returning fire with five twin 305-mm guns. This is equivalent to the battleship Dante Alige Ichery, which was besieged by three warships of the same class of the Tsarist Russian Navy and the Gallic Navy. In such a situation, how could this hapless battleship possibly carry it?
“Boom!”
A 356-mm shell fired from the battlecruiser Kimbourn of the Tsarist Russian Navy hit the battleship Giulio Caesar. The power of 356mm shells is very strong, especially the armor-piercing shells of the Tsarist Russian Navy or cap-piercing shells, and the armor-piercing ability is even more prominent.
The armor near the waterline of the battleship Giulio Caesar was easily torn apart, blowing a large hole out. The sea water began to pour wildly into the hull.
Although, the damage management personnel plugged the loophole in time. However, because of the lot of water, the hull of the battleship has been tilted. Fortunately, the combat effectiveness has not been greatly affected, and the fight can continue.
But as the fire of the two Izmail-class battlecruisers became more and more intense, more and more 356-mm shells hit the battleship Giulio Caesar.
This huge battleship with a displacement of more than 25,000 tons has already suffered heavy damage from repeated hits. Not only was the hull severely damaged, but the battleship also burst into flames. Because the hull was seriously damaged, seawater was still frantically pouring into the hull.
Soon, the battleship Giulio Caesar sank into the sea due to too much flooding.
After killing the battleship Julio Caesar in the Kingdom of Caesar, two Izmail-class battlecruisers of the Russian Navy immediately turned their guns and joined the attack on the battleship Leonardo da Vinci in the Kingdom of Caesar.
At this time, the battleship Barry of the Gallic Navy had also suffered heavy damage. It’s just that it hasn’t been sunk yet. Moreover, their counterattack also caused the battleship Leonardo da Vinci of the Kingdom of Caesar to suffer certain losses.
At the same time, the battleship Dante Alige Icheri of the Caesars Navy was two Mikhail I class battleships of the Tsarist Navy, as well as the Gallic Navy
Under the siege of the battleship Gaul, it was also sunk. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
The battleship, with a displacement of more than 25,000 tons, received at least twenty more than twenty 305-mm shells. The hulls of the ships have been blown up and ragged. It’s also natural that you can’t bear it.
The successive losses of the battleships Giulio Caesar and the battleships Dante Aligue Icheri caused heavy losses to the Caesars’ kingdom navy. Moreover, the Caesars Navy and the Austro-Hungarian Navy were already at a complete disadvantage in this battle.
Given that the battleship Barry had already suffered heavy damage, if the battle continued 677, there was a possibility that it would be sunk.
Admiral Charles, commander of the Gallic Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet, ordered the battleship Barry to withdraw from battle and return home for repairs.
At the same time, the battleship Guba, the flagship of the Mediterranean Fleet of the Gallic Navy, also suffered considerable losses. However, it still retains a large combat effectiveness and can continue to fight.
Two Izmail-class battlecruisers and two Mikhail-class battleships of the Imperial Russian Navy, as well as the battleship Gallic of the Gallic Navy, laid siege to the battleship Leonardo da Vinci of the Caesars Navy.
The battleship was already damaged. Now, it was even besieged by five battleships of the enemy, and naturally could not hold out any longer.
In less than ten minutes, the battleship Leonardo da Vinci was sunk.
However, Admiral Paul Leifel, the navy minister of the Caesar Kingdom, boarded the landing craft and fled the soon-to-be-sinking battleship before it sank.
Until now, all three battleships of the Caesar Kingdom Navy have been sunk.
The hopes of the Caesars Navy and the Austro-Hungarian Navy to defeat the Russian and Gallic navies in this battle were also completely dashed.
