Fox of France

If it weren't in battle, even if there was a problem with this patch and the sea water poured in, it wouldn't actually be a big problem. Because at that time, the damage management personnel on the ship stared here 24 hours a day. This requires that as soon as there is a problem in this place, everyone will act immediately and close the water-proof compartment. The ship may cause some minor troubles due to water in one compartment, but there will never be a major problem.

But at this time, the situation was different. There were many fires on the "Queen Elizabeth", and the damage to the management was needed everywhere, and the constant shelling also caused the damage to the management itself to be heavy, so when the sea water came in, the damage The manager did not respond immediately. After they discovered this problem, the water intake was already considerable. Although they urgently closed some compartments (in the process, some sailors who had not had time to escape were also directly locked in. These closed compartments would soon be filled with sea water, and the sailors trapped in them had only dead ends. One) But the large amount of water ingress still caused the "Queen Elizabeth" to begin to tilt significantly.

If the roll angle exceeds a certain level, the cannons on the "Queen Elizabeth", especially the 10-inch main gun, will become unusable. Therefore, the British must use some means to correct the deck's roll.

Generally speaking, the most common and the easiest way to correct deck roll is to fill the corresponding watertight tank on the other side to restore balance.

The British did the same, so the deck of "Queen Elizabeth" gradually returned to level, and the 5-inch secondary artillery on the warship fired back at the French armored cruisers.

Compared with the French armored cruiser, the "Queen Elizabeth" is much more stable as a platform, so its secondary artillery is naturally more accurate. But even the secondary artillery. Compared with the French cannons, their rate of fire is obviously too slow. Not enough to suppress the French armored cruisers.

On the other hand, the speed of the "Queen Elizabeth" has further decreased due to the influence of passive water intake and active water intake in order to restore balance. Now her speed has dropped to about eight knots. However, the distance between her and the "Inbrador" was further shortened.

"How far is the enemy ship from us now?" General Nelson asked very calmly, ignoring the approaching flames.

"About 1,700 meters," a staff officer replied.

"Just get closer, at 1,500 meters, let the main gun fire at the enemy ship." Nelson said calmly, as if the warship he was on was not burning.

The distance between the two sides continued to approach, and more 150 shells fell on the "Queen Elizabeth". Now the distance is much closer, and the efficiency of the enemy's shelling has increased significantly.

Fortunately, the ammunition depot of the "Queen Elizabeth" has special reinforced armor. At least for now, there has been no breakdown of the ammunition depot. But at this time, the French second team has also been killed from behind. Under the leadership of two super cruisers, they were firing at the British armored cruisers from behind.

Because of the obvious disadvantages in number and firepower, most of the British cruisers were suppressed, although they were doing their best for England, as General Nelson asked when raising the Z-flag. However, the huge gap in strength cannot be changed by mental strength alone. Although they also wounded several French warships, the French's success was obviously greater-almost all British armored cruisers burned under the French fire.

This kind of result is very normal. In fact, as long as the quantity and fire power of the two sides are transformed into one's copy of the battle equation, you will know that the British have actually performed very well in this battle.

After several more rounds of shelling, the "Queen Elizabeth" finally approached the distance of about 1,500 meters from the "Inberdoll".

At this time, a 150 shell had just passed through the podium of the "Queen Elizabeth". The shell passed through without exploding, but it still caused a lot of casualties. Nelson's adjutant was hit by a piece of iron torn from the shell and fell to the ground unconscious; Nelson was also hit by a piece of flying glass. Front chest. He may have suffered some injuries to his lungs, and there was blood flowing out of his mouth and nose, but he could still stand on the armrest.

"Pre-main gun ready! Aim at enemy ship No. 1 and open..." Nelson shouted into the microphone, but at the end, he coughed violently, with foamy blood coming from his mouth and nose. Came out.

"Fire!" Captain Hardy, who was also very injured, got up from the ground and called out an order.

The former main artillery fired at the battleship "Inbrador" just over a thousand meters away. As two fireballs came out of the running mouth, the two shells shot directly at the "Inbredo".

One of the two artillery shells flew past the bridge of the "Inbrador". If the artillery shell was more accurate, it might be able to wipe out Marshal Treville and his staff.

Another shell hit the bow of the "Inbrador".

In a loud noise, most of the bow of the "Inbrador" was blown up, so that the waves could flood in directly from there.

Losing the bow~www.readwn.com~The speed of the British Berhad immediately dropped, and the stability of the ship was also significantly weakened due to the waves. But in general, the artillery shell had a " "Inbredo" broke the picture, but it did not paralyze "Inbredo".

It's just that the main guns of the British warships were loading too slowly, and they were heads to the enemy at this time. Unless everyone had crossed over, their rear main guns could not shoot.

However, considering the loading speed of the main guns, to be honest, when everyone passes by, the front main guns may not be able to complete the loading. Originally, Nelson could use better steering to try if he could turn the tail gun to a firing angle, but now the ship is seriously damaged and it is difficult to complete such a steering.

"Pressure and strong ventilation, we ran over and hit Shen Yingbrado!" Nelson finally stopped his coughing, and he tried hard to support himself not to fall, looking at the close at hand, because he lost the bow, he lowered The battleship "Inbrador", which had increased its speed and became more awkward, issued such an order.
