After intercepting the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy, the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Navy immediately began to adjust its course and shorten the distance between the two sides. In order to be able to invest more strength in the next naval battle, defeat the sun in one fell swoop.
And the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet is aware of this. They knew that a decisive battle was inevitable. Therefore, in the face of the incoming Russians, they did not run away, but prepared for battle.
Little by little, the time passed, and at one o’clock in the afternoon, the capital ships of both sides had already entered their respective ranges.
On the battleship Peter II, the commanders of the Black Sea Fleet, Vice Admiral Enkvist and Vice Admiral Norbergatov, were observing the fleet of the sun never setting in the distance with binoculars.
“The sun does not set and the people do not flee, but choose to fight a decisive battle with us. It can be seen that even at a disadvantage. However, the sun never sets and people are still very confident in themselves. They may even have the possibility of defeating us. No matter how bad it is, I hope to be able to fight with us and lose both!” said Lieutenant General Enkwei-St.
“The Royal Navy has dominated the world’s oceans for hundreds of years. This time, there was absolute confidence that he could eat us. But what they didn’t expect was that we were eventually forced to this field. Therefore, I am afraid that they are also very angry, and want to confront us head-on and crush us in one fell swoop! If they can turn the tide against the wind, it will undoubtedly create a miracle. Lieutenant General Norbergatov said.
“Hmph, the sun does not set and people want to turn over against the wind, that is simply delusional. This time, we must completely knock them into the abyss. After this failure, the supremacy of the sun does not set and the people do not want to maintain it anymore. Lieutenant General Enkvist snorted coldly.
If you can send the royal navy that never sets into the abyss, you can pull them off the throne of the hegemon in one fell swoop. Well, that’s a huge honor!
As a naval officer, it is estimated that naval officers and soldiers around the world will have this dream.
“How much advantage do we have in this battle?” asked Lieutenant General Enkvister.
“Your Excellency Commander, first of all, we have one more capital ship than the sun never sets. In addition, the defense of our battleships, even those of battle cruisers, was much thicker than that of battleships that never set on the sun. Even if it is hit, the probability of survival of our battleship is much greater. In addition, we have quite a few warships, although they are still equipped with 305mm guns. However, a 305-mm gun of fifty times caliber was enough to penetrate the armor of those battleships that never set on the sun. Lieutenant General Norbergatov said.
Of the 13 capital ships of the Black Sea Fleet, four Kaiser-class battleships, two Izmail-class battlecruisers and two Mikhail-I battleships, all armed with 305-mm guns.
On the other hand, those warships that never set on the sun, the smallest caliber main guns are 343 mm caliber main guns.
It’s just that the 45-caliber 343-mm main gun will not be much stronger than the 50-caliber 305-mm gun in terms of power. Especially in terms of armor-piercing ability, there is not much gap between the two sides.
In such a situation, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet does not have much advantage.
In addition, the biggest shortcoming of the sun does not set is that the general defense of their warships is very bad. Once hit, it tends to be hit hard.
In contrast, these warships of the Imperial Russian Navy were very defensive. Whether it is a warship built by the Russian Navy or a warship obtained from the Germans, the defense is very strong. Even the Mackensen-class battle cruisers, after the capture of the Russian Empire, required improvements to further strengthen the defense of the battleships.
This makes the Tsarist Russian Navy undoubtedly take advantage of the Imperial Royal Navy in the next battle of the same day, in terms of defense!
Perhaps, this can play a great role in the next big war, so that the Russian navy can gain a greater advantage in the battle.
Face the Black Sea Fleet of the Japanese and Russian navy, which has already appeared on the battlefield and intercepted them.
The Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet, although a little nervous, but more, is a burning fighting spirit.
The Royal Navy has dominated the world for hundreds of years, and the sense of honor that has been formed is enough for every Royal Navy officer to fight for it.

Even in the depths of adversity, they will never give up.
What’s more, the Royal Navy has always believed that their warships are the most advanced in the world, and the quality of their sailors is also the best in the world. Even if their strength is at a disadvantage, winning more with less is never a luxury for them.
“Order the ships to prepare for battle. This time, we have been cornered by the Russians. For the sake of the interests of the Sun Never Sets Empire, and even more for the glory of the Royal Navy, we have no choice. Warriors of the Empire, do your best to fight the Russians to the death!” ordered Admiral Roger Keyes. (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!)
“Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!” the roar of the officers and men of the Royal Navy sounded from the battleship ravaged.
At the same time, there were bursts of roars on the other warships.
For a while, the morale of the Royal Navy seemed to be ignited.
They will fight for the glory of the Royal Navy. Even if you pay for it, you will not hesitate.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
When the distance between the two battle lines was shortened to less than 18,000 meters, one after another the warships began to fire.
At this time, warships on both sides were conducting test firing.
Because the distance is too far, there will not be too high accuracy at this time.
However, even so, the fighting will become more and more fierce and fierce.
On the part of the Tsarist Navy, combat missions were quickly assigned.
13 capital ships, 12 capital ships against the sun never sets.
The 11 capital ships in front of the battle line, and the 11 capital ships on the battle line that did not fall on the same day, engaged in one-on-one combat. The two Mikhail I-class battleships at the back of the battle line laid siege to the last battleship on the battle line that never set the sun.
That is, the battleships Fyodor III and Ivan V, besieging the battleship Conqueror of the Sun Never Sets.
This is a war, naturally it is impossible to talk about fairness or not, and trying to win this naval battle by all means is undoubtedly the most important! .
