"Look, that's the Demon!"

A scream attracted the curious attention of almost all the German officers and soldiers at the same time.

The so-called Demon refers to the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor. This is the nickname given by all the naval officers and soldiers of the Allied Powers to the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor, expressing the strong hostile attitude of the Allied Powers towards the United Nations camp.

For the German officers and soldiers at this moment, they hoped from the bottom of their hearts that they could sink the battleship Guanghua Great. No matter how much the price they paid, as long as they sink this symbol of the Chinese Empire Navy, the only nuclear-powered battleship in the world, would be a lifetime pride for any German officer and soldier who sunk her.

However, at this moment, they saw the arrival of the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor, and only had a moment of joy, and were immediately replaced by the desperate escape situation in front of them. They did not think it was a favorable time to sink the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor.

But there are always some outlaws. They saw the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor coming alone, and there were no other large main battleships around them. The ability of several escorted air defense heavy cruisers to fight against air is indeed fearful, but their combat capabilities against sea are far inferior and they are not the opponent of the German fleet at all.

"Commander, it is the title of Emperor Guanghua!"

Williams looked at Hanson with joy and looked forward to him. He was obviously one of the outlaws.

"Yeah."

Hansen just replied lightly, as if he had no intention of discussing with the Emperor Guanghua.

"commander!"

Williams called again, his eyes still firm.

Hansen stopped him from the following words and said, "I understand what you mean! But now our main purpose is to break through quickly and bring the fleet back to Germany safely."

"But-" Williams paused and continued: "This is the Guanghua Emperor! The ultimate nuclear-powered battleship, a symbol of the Chinese Empire's navy. Now that she is alone, it is an excellent opportunity for us to sink her. If it were normal, we would have no chance at all!"

Of course, Hansen understood Williams' words. He also wanted to take the opportunity to sink the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor. As the only nuclear-powered ultimate battleship in the world, its expensive cost and huge military value are self-evident, not to mention that this ultimate battleship was named after the Emperor of the Chinese Empire. As the flagship of the Chinese Empire Naval Combined Fleet, its political value is extremely great. He is even alone at this moment, with no other main ships accompanying him. For the German fleet, now is the best time to sink her. No matter from any aspect, Hansen seems to have no reason to let this battleship go.

However, Hansen's mission is to return to Germany safely with this German fleet. If time is wasted on the Guanghua Great, if it is therefore ensconded by the Imperial Chinese Navy again, then the entire fleet is in danger of being wiped out.

Henson felt that it was not worth it if he could sink it. Even if he could sink it, he would exchange it for the price of annihilation of a fleet and the last hope of the German Navy.

"We will divide five battleships to attack the Guanghua Emperor, which should not affect the fleet's breakthrough plan."

"no!"

Hanson once again rejected Williams' proposal.

But Williams didn't give up at all and continued, "Commander, we have been defeated now. We have lost hundreds of warships. We haven't even hurt a hair in the enemy ship. This is too embarrassing, just go back like this. The face of the Imperial Navy is gone. But if we can sink the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor, at least we are not defeated too badly."

Seeing Williams persistent, Hanson had to explain: "I think you are confused? You only saw the other party sending the flagship over. Maybe there was Li Dingxin, the commander-in-chief of the United Fleet, and he thought he could easily sink the opponent's flagship and kill Li Dingxin, so he could paralyze the joint commander, right?"

Williams nodded in agreement.

Hansen then sighed and said, "You only see these, but you don't know the intention behind the arrival of the Guanghua Emperor."

Williams said: "Are there any intention behind it?"

Hansen then explained: "It is obvious that Li Dingxin will not be able to use the Guanghua Emperor nuclear-powered battleship to fight us, because any mistakes happened, Li Dingxin would not be able to take advantage of it.\\.

\\But why did he send the symbol of this Imperial Chinese Navy here? Isn’t this worth our deep thought?”

Williams seemed to understand something, so he asked, "What do you mean?"

Hansen said: "It means that the other party has no troops to adjust, so he has to send the flagship to attract our firepower and delay our breakthrough. On the other hand, this shows that our current breakthrough direction is very correct, because there must be no enemy fleet ahead of us, at least now. But if we attack the Guanghua Emperor and the small fleet near her, it may be delayed. If I guessed correctly, Li Dingxin has now urgently ordered other fleets to come quickly."

Williams finally understood, and Hanson was indeed visionary. He hurriedly said, "What the commander said is very true, I understand."

Hansen nodded, finally convinced his first deputy.

However, just as Williams was about to appease the commanders of other ships, an accident happened.

At 6:05 pm, Lieutenant General Hines, the commander of the Fourth Squadron, refused Hanson's command, because he was at the same level as Hanson, and he refused to accept Hanson's command if he lost the command of General Bondy, the commander of the High Seas Fleet.

Of course, Lieutenant General Hines was the zhong of Li Dingxin who came over to the opposite side.

The yāng fleet was attracted by it, and he could not refuse the temptation of the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor. He vowed to sink the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor.

So Lieutenant General Hines ordered the Fourth Squadron to turn to 220 and headed directly towards the Emperor Guanghua.

"Damn Hines!"

After learning about Lieutenant General Hines's actions, Hanson was furious and scolded Hines for being a bastard, who would ruin the entire Fourth Squadron.

Hines couldn't stand the temptation and directly ordered the Fourth Squadron to attack Li Dingxin's zhong

The yāng fleet, this is exactly what Li Dingxin is happy to see.

At 6:23, five German ships rushed from the northeast, less than forty kilometers away from the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor.

Both sides have the ultimate battleship with 20-inch main gun, and the artillery coverage distance is about 35 kilometers.

Also the ultimate battleship, the main gun of the Ultimate Battleship of Hines' Queen is four double-mounted 20-inch and 45-distance, while the Guanghua Emperor is four triple-mounted 20-inch and 50-distance main guns. Therefore, the firepower of the Queen is far from that of the Guanghua Emperor. Hines knows this, but he is fearless. Because Li Dingxin only has one battleship, the Guanghua Emperor, while he has an ultimate battleship and four super battleships.

"Distance 35 kilometers! Main gun attack!"

Hines seemed a little impatient, or he was afraid of the nuclear reactor on the Guanghua Great. He had no sense of distinction between the concept of nuclear bombs and nuclear reactors. He thought that once the Guanghua Great Emperor was sunk, it would probably cause a large explosion of the nuclear reactor, so he ordered the German ship not to get too close. He ordered the fire to enter the attack range as soon as he entered the attack range.

The Queen battleship took the lead in firing at the Emperor Guanghua, and then the other four battleships also carried out firepower in turn.

Accompanied by the roaring cannons, huge shells fell around the Guanghua Emperor. In an instant, huge water columns hundreds of meters high were stirred up, which was very terrifying.

During World War I, the accuracy of artillery accuracy of the German high seas fleet was still very different from that of the Chinese Empire. However, after decades of development, the German navy, which had been strengthening giant ship artilleryism, was very close to the level of the Chinese Empire in this regard. Their bounce points were distributed very regularly, and the first time at 35 kilometers away, it had already reached a distance of less than 300 meters.

Faced with the aggressive situation of the German ship, Li Dingxin could see clearly in the bridge command room. But he was not afraid at all, and even refused to enter the command tower with strong protection capabilities.

"The distance is 34.3 kilometers. The main gun is ready for shove!"

"The port side, the height of the direction is 40, the first round of firepower is as strong as the first round!"

"Prepare - fire!"

The order was issued. The 12 20-inch cannons of the battleship Guanghua Emperor opened fire. As soon as the cannon was shot out, the huge muzzle spewed out dazzling flames, and violent air waves pressed on the sea outside the port side, forming four fan-shaped patterns with a diameter of 100 meters.

A few dozen seconds later, the shells landed near the German fleet, and instantly aroused 12 uniform huge water columns. Their bounce points were closer than the previous bounce points of German gunfire, and the first time it was within 200 meters.

Lieutenant General Hines on the Queen's face was even hit by the splashing sea water, which showed the huge power of the shells.

The warships on both sides fiercely confronted. Li Dingxin knew about zhong

The other heavy cruisers of the yāng fleet, the destroyers were not opponents at all, and Suxing did not allow them to participate in the war, but ordered them to track and monitor another German fleet that had not been caught from a distance.

In this way, the five battleships of Hines were obviously advantageous in terms of quantity and firepower against Li Dingxin and one battleship. For a time, the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor seemed very difficult.

"How long will it take?"

"The battle has ended on the Western Front battlefield, and the Pacific Fleet and the Royal British Navy are coming quickly, and it is expected to be about two hours."

Li Dingxin frowned and said, "When they come, it will be dark!"

Liu Chuntang said: "The aircraft carrier battle group is also coming. At present, most aircraft carrier battle groups are outside the combat radius. Only the aircraft carrier Fanjingshan has just entered the combat radius. They have sent 80 fighter jets to come, which is expected to take 50 minutes."

Li Dingxin nodded and secretly asked in his heart, hoping that the Emperor Guanghua could hold on for fifty minutes.

On the other hand, when Hansen saw Hines going to attack the Emperor Guanghua, he knew that he had fallen into Li Dingxin's plan. He had to make complete preparations.

"Our submarine is nearby!"

Williams nodded and said, "Yes! The last secret telegram from Admiral Bundy mentioned that the submarine force will help us escape from danger!"

"Contact them now and prepare to reinforce Hines!"

Williams asked, "What should we do? That's our last killer move!"

Hansen said: "We can't use it anymore! Since Li Dingxin has sent all the flagships, it means there are no other fleets nearby. If we don't exchange fire with them, we have escaped. On the contrary, Hines will probably be dragged down by Li Dingxin and will eventually be surrounded by the Imperial Chinese Navy who came to reinforce. This is the only way we can help Hines."

"I understand!" Williams immediately took the order.
