"Bao was hit!" Lieutenant General Duff said with concern as he looked at the front of the hull of the Benbao battleship in front of him soaring into the sky. Just half a minute ago, a 15-inch shell landed accurately on the No. 2 main turret of Benbao. How could a mere 12-inch armor block the 15-inch armor-piercing shell weighing 870 kilograms? So, the turret led more than 60 British Royal Navy officers and soldiers to die very simply!

The huge shell left a huge perforation on the forehead of the turret. Two long 343MM cannons fell on the deck, and thick smoke and flames surged out from the turret's rupture. Groups of British naval officers and soldiers tried to destroy the flames that were spreading around, but at this time the second disaster came!

The same 15-inch shell was also from the Saxon. This shell accurately hit the armor belt in the middle of the hull of Benbao! With the violent impact, the shell successfully tore off a large piece of armor plate from the huge hull. Then, countless pieces and shells hit the left condenser on the rear of the armor plate, accompanied by a huge ball of flame flying out of the side string of the warship. Even the British Navy, 2 kilometers away, saw this heavy blow!

"The condenser on the left was destroyed, and we didn't have enough fresh water!"

"The fire began to spread, damn, there was an abnormality inside the boiler bin." Inside the hull of Benbao, a group of British naval officers and soldiers were busy in the narrow and dim corridor. The destroyed cabin was like the entrance to hell, filled with flames and smoke. The British saved their warships under the threat of death.

"Lieutenant General, Ben Bao wants to temporarily withdraw from the battle line," an officer pointed to Ben Bao's signal flag and said. This is not a problem of Ben Bao's avoidance of war, but because after the condenser on the left was destroyed, the boiler water supply was serious, so the steam supply could not be guaranteed. You must know that the entire fleet is now sailing almost parallel to the German fleet at a speed of 18 knots. It is difficult for Ben Bao, which has lost nearly half of its power, to maintain it on the battle line!

"Let him hold on for a while and control the steam volume in the pipeline. Now the battle has just begun for 7 minutes. We cannot let a super fearless ship withdraw from the battle like this! Because..." Just as Lieutenant Duff had not finished speaking, a series of shocking explosions came not far from the flagship Iron Duke! The violent explosion instantly suppressed everyone's words!

The flagship of the German High Seas Fleet, Bavaria, aimed eight 15-inch heavy artillery at the Marporo in the distance. During the fifth round of half-volleys, Bavaria successfully clamped the target, and four water columns were evenly distributed around the super fearless ship. Then, the Bavaria, which quickly turned into the effective shooting, poured its firepower crazy at a rate of fire every half minute. When the last round of shells had not yet entered the water, the second round of shells had already flew out of the barrel. In the eighth minute, Bavaria scored the first round of hits!

Two 15-inch shells hit the poor warship one after another! One round of shells penetrated the cannon seat at the lower part of the Marporo turret 2! How can a ring armor of only 10 inches thick block the 15-inch armor-piercing shell? Just like a hot knife cutting butter, the armor-piercing shells easily drilled into the dressing room in the cannon seat. Then a flash of flames, tons of shells and launching medicine accumulated in the dressing room were detonated, and the violent explosion directly exploded several layers of decks around it, and even the hundreds of tons of turrets on the top of the cannon seat were shaken off the cannon seat!

Although the fire door on the ammunition depot temporarily blocked the raging fire demon, the surging flames had begun to spread to the No. 1 turret in the front of the hull. Just as the captain of the Marporo was considering whether to flood the ammunition depots of both turrets, the second shell hit the poor warship.

"Poor Marporo! This gun seemed to have entered the power compartment." On the side of the battle, officers and soldiers on a British destroyer who were on standby witnessed this spectacular scene. In the distance, a fire flashed on the huge battleship, and then accompanied by a loud noise, the boiler bin below the flue was like a volcano erupting. A huge chimney was directly blown away from the hull. A section of the open-air deck, dozens of meters long, was blown up with holes. Flames, gun smoke and high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor poured out from the hull and quickly spread on the hull, like a volcano that was about to erupt.

However, the disaster of this poor battleship was not over. When the captain of the Marporo only knew that his warship had been hit twice, and even did not know the loss, the second round of attack had fallen, and the third 15-inch shell drew an arc in the air, and then successfully shot it into the top of the No. 2 turret ammunition depot from the horizontal direction! The ammunition depot, which was already on the verge of collapse, was instantly disintegrated!

The huge shells were broken into pieces by explosives under the action of the fuse, and thousands of debris flew into the ammunition depot that had not yet been injected. As a result, almost the entire fleet of the fleet heard the first deafening explosion in this naval battle! Many people also witnessed the scene when the first war-sinking warship died in this naval battle!

Accompanied by the explosion like thunder, a hundred meters long fire dragon rose up on the hull. The power of this explosion was so huge that the huge energy from the explosion from the ammunition depot at the bottom of the ship even lifted the hull slightly away from the water surface! Under the influence of its own gravity and explosion, with the No. 2 turret as the dividing line, the huge warship broke into two pieces. The bow part of the front was quickly swallowed by the waves, and the hull behind it still had no use despite struggling hard. With the explosions one after another, hundreds of tons of debris were thrown into the sea. Thousands of tons of sea water poured into it, causing the ship to disappear from the sea quickly. Two minutes later, only the mast and the propeller raised high at the tail still showed that there was a warship here.

"God bless the German Empire!"

"Long live the High Seas Fleet!"

"Long live the heroic Bavaria!"

"Long live the crown prince! Long live the Bavarian Kingdom!" When I saw the Marporo in the distance being blown to pieces, the German naval officers and soldiers on the Bavaria were boiling. They had not experienced the pleasure of killing the enemy ship so happily for a long time! The first kill was won in this decisive battle, which also made the officers and soldiers on the warship excited. They believed that it was the founder of this battleship, Crown Prince Ruprecht and the previous kings of Bavaria, who had given this warship such good luck! After all, there are 12 fellow brothers here. If you want to get the first kill, luck is more important!
