"General, the distance is too far, and the hit rate cannot be guaranteed. We assembled eight battleships for concentrated fire. Although we hit the target many times, we still couldn''t sink it!" On the battleship ''King'', Philippine Major General Lex said.


    Lieutenant General Theodor Burchard nodded. From the initial shooting distance of 30 kilometers, it has now been shortened to 26 kilometers. Although the hit rate has improved a lot, it is still frighteningly low. Of course, this is much better than purely without artillery radar. The capital ship of the Japanese navy does not have a gun-sighting radar, and now it can only be beaten passively, with no power to fight back.


    "At least it proves that our artillery radar performance is still very good. In this respect, we once again lead the world. It is impossible for a small country like an ind country topare with us!" Theodor? Lieutenant General Burchardy said.


    "However, if we want to sink all the capital ships of the ind nation''s navy, we don''t know how long it will take. Maybe all the shells will be fired, and they will not be able to sink them all." Theodor Bull Lieutenant General Xia Di frowned.


    "Your Excellency, Commander, we may be able to shorten the distance further. Even if the distance is shortened to 20 kilometers or even closer, it will be difficult for the capital ships of the inders to hit us. After all, fighting in the night environment, The navy of the ind country does not have a gun sight radar, and their hit rate will be frighteningly low!" Rear Admiral Felix said.


    "Well, let''s do this! Further reduce the distance to improve the hit rate!" Lieutenant General Theodor Burchard ordered.


    The battleship formation of the German Navy''s Pacific Fleet intentionally shortened the distance. It was not until the distance of 25 kilometers that the sea search radar of the navy of the ind country discovered these battleships.


    "General, the Germans have been found, a total of eight capital ships!" Fukurushige reported to Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo.


    "Eight capital ships? It seems that these are the capital ships of the German Pacific Fleet. The capital ships of their Indian Ocean Fleet may be on their way. We must seize the opportunity and destroy them as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be many idents in this naval battle!" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo said.


    The performance of the capital ship of the German Navy was beyond their expectations. This greatly affected Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo''s confidence. The German Navy has only eight capital ships and they are under great threat. If the other seven capital ships also arrive, wouldn''t they bepletely at a disadvantage? In that case, the consequences may be even more serious.


    Colonel Fukushige also nodded again and again. The battleship of the German Navy was able to spot them at a super long distance, and then opened fire. Although the hit rate is very low, it is already very good. For the navy of the ind country, this has shocked them very much.


    "Boom! Boom!"


    The 380mm artillery shells continuously hit the battleship Nagato, making this huge battleship more injured. Although, these injuries were not fatal. However, thebat effectiveness of the battleship ''Nagato'' continued to decline. After all, in addition to the four 410mm main guns with 45 times the caliber, those sighting equipment are also very important. Once those devices are damaged, it is almost impossible to hit long-range targets. In that case, even if there is powerful firepower in the air, it will be useless if it cannot hit the target.


    The battleship ''Nagato'' finally entered the line of battle. Although the superstructure was severely damaged, it managed to hold on and escaped the catastrophe. This also made the officers and soldiers, including Colonel Tokunaga Ei, a bit relieved. tone.


    It''s just that, unfortunately, the German navy seems to have been staring at them. Even after hiding in the battle line, the eight capital ships of the German Navy have been tilting shells towards it.


    As the distance got closer, the watchman on the mast could faintly see it with a telescope. After all, the soaring mes can be seen from a long distance under the night sky.


    "How far are we from the Germans?" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo asked.


    "General, we are currently at least 22 kilometers apart!" Mr. Fukushige reported.


    "Order the ships to fire! Target the first battleship on the enemy''s battle line!" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo ordered.


    Although, this distance is within the range of the capital ships of the Japanese navy. However, it is very difficult to hit a target at such a long distance even during the day. Not to mention it''s still night. It can be said that firing now is simply a waste of shells.


    But Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo has no choice. If he keeps not firing and passively faces the battle, the morale of the troops will only continue to decline. Even if it can''t hit the warship of the German Navy, as long as it can cause a little interference to it, it will be very useful.


    Perhaps, the crisis of the battleship Nagato can be alleviated. It is hard to say how long this battleship, which was under fire from eight battleships of the German Navy, canst.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    Under the order of Lieutenant Admiral Yoshida Zengo, 12 battleships of the ind navy also started firing.


    Orange mes gleamed at the muzzle, and the shells roared and smashed towards the German fleet in the distance. But, unfortunately, at a distance of more than 20 kilometers, it is undoubtedly very difficult to hit the target. The impact points of these capital ships of the ind navy are very far away, and the threat posed to those capital ships of the German Navy is almost negligible.


    The German fleet simply ignored the bombardment of the ind navy. They still concentrated their firepower on the battleship Nagato, trying to sink the battleship that had already suffered a lot of trauma. As the saying goes, it is better to cut off one finger than to hurt his ten fingers. Solving the battleship "Nagato" will undoubtedly be a major blow to the Japanese navy.


    "Damn it! Damn the Germans, why have they been staring at us all the time? Could it be that they really thought they could sink us at such a long distance?" Dazuo Tokunaga''s face was as ck as the bottom of a pot.


    He never thought that the battleship hemanded would be the primary target of the German Navy in this battle. And, will be hit so many times. Although, all he suffered now were minor injuries. However, the umtion of these small injuries has already had a considerable impact on the battleship Nagato.


    For example, the sighting equipment has been destroyed. The firing of the battleship "Nagato" is really a waste of shells. Apart from emboldening the officers and soldiers on the battleship, it has no other role.
