Another World: Naval Storm

Chapter 88 The Disaster of Sturdy's Fleet

"What is that?" The lookout of Sturdy's fleet saw a large number of white lines rushing towards the fleet.

The Drake submarine released a total of three rounds of torpedoes, totaling up to 3 torpedoes fired from different directions.

"Torpedo! Torpedo!"

"Anti-collision!"

"Fire, fire!" The hoarse voice accompanied by the sound of secondary guns continued to ring out in the Sturdy fleet.

Of the 48 torpedoes, some were detonated by the dense artillery shells of Sturdee's fleet, some were dodged, and excluding those that dud, the remaining 10 torpedoes were happily accepted by Sturdee's fleet.

A huge explosion sounded in Sturdee's fleet. The already damaged battlecruiser Invincible was hit by four bullets. Without any extra struggle, it sank to the bottom of the sea with all the officers and soldiers on board. In the end, only more than a dozen people survived.

"Invincible! My Invincible!" Sturdy couldn't bear the blow and fainted.

The Invincible is Talen's first battlecruiser and one of the representatives of Talen's giant warships and cannons, with great symbolic significance.

The Indomitable and Endeavour were also hit by two missiles, but this time, thanks to God, the Talens' waterline armor finally withstood the attack.

They did not follow the Invincible and were still floating on the sea, but their speed was negligible.

The remaining two torpedoes hit the armored cruiser Cape Town, which was in a very bad condition. The side torpedo platform was destroyed, causing 1500 tons of seawater to pour into the Cape Town's hull.

"Don't panic! Observe the sea surface and open fire immediately if you see any suspicious targets on the water surface!" Major General Moore, who took over the command, immediately took remedial measures and asked for help from Liam's First Battle Patrol Squadron.

Some of the Drake submarines did not hide immediately after launching torpedoes, but raised their periscopes to continue observing, which gave the Sturdee fleet a good opportunity to take revenge.

"There!"

"Fire! Revenge for the Invincible!" Fierce artillery fire blasted out.

Countless shells hit near the Drake submarines. They had no time to dive and paid the price for their carelessness. Four Drake submarines were sunk.

Leo's fleet intends to fight them off. Although Sturdy's fleet still has 2 battlecruisers and 3 armored cruisers, its strength should not be underestimated.

The flashing alarm told Leo that Liam was approaching 40 kilometers, and eating some Sturdy would not let Leo's fleet die in vain.

Things are changing, and this time it's the Sturdy Fleet's turn to fight.

"Fire! Fire!"

"We can't let the Drakes get close!" Sturdy shouted in despair after waking up. The sinking of the Invincible would lead to him being brought to a military court. If the entire fleet was destroyed, he might even be shot.

Everyone knew the seriousness of the matter without him saying anything. After all, their lives were at stake. The Taren people's counterattack fire was so intensive that Leo couldn't even speak for a moment.

However, the opportunity always comes. The warships of both sides were parallel, and the Leo fleet opened fire on the Sturdy fleet at a distance of about 9000. The firepower of Leo's three battlecruisers was extremely accurate and fierce, and its intensity once made Sturdy think that they were fighting against 3 to 6 battlecruisers. In the next 10 minutes, Sturdy's fleet was covered by artillery shells, so that the Liam fleet, which was close to the battlefield within 10 kilometers, could see a large area of ​​light.

"Speed ​​up the fleet!" Liam has been extremely anxious since she received Mur's letter for help.

"General, this is already the fastest speed! And Major General Moore told us to be careful of the Drake submarines!"

"Leo has a great plan! Regardless of whether his entire army is wiped out this time, we will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame!"

"Leo should have seen us. Why didn't he run away when he had the chance?"

"Leo must have thought that he couldn't escape, so he decided to fight us to the death!"

Indomitable

The Inflexible was hit eight times by the Von der Leyen and Von der Cassie, four of which hit the ship below the waterline, causing about 8 tons of seawater to pour into the hull. Due to the heavy damage, the bow of the ship sank below the water surface.

"General, let's move quickly! As long as General Liam arrives, we still have a chance." Moore persuaded. If Sturdy didn't leave, he would not be able to retreat.

"I want to stay with the Indomitable. It's my fault that I didn't sink to the bottom of the sea with the Invincible!" Sturdy stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes.

Major General Moore signaled his men with his eyes. The two officers understood what he meant and carried Sturdy outside.

"Let me go! I won't leave...!" Sturdy wanted to struggle free from the restraints, but unfortunately his pampered body didn't have the strength to do so.

The Von der Tann, whose turret was destroyed last time, struggled to fire at the Endeavour. The two sides fought back and forth, and another turret of the Von der Tann was destroyed.

However, the armored cruiser USS Forry of Leo's fleet was in trouble. The three armored cruisers of Taren were not polite at all and concentrated all their firepower on the Forry.

The Foley held on for more than ten minutes before it finally received support from the Von der Leyen, which was freed up.

Seeing that the Inflexible was about to sink, the von der Leyen and the von der Cassi turned their guns around.

"What? The Inflexible sank, too?"

"Oh my God?! How is this possible?" Alex was horrified. This was something he had never expected. He couldn't even insist on their coming.

"This is Leo. We must keep him here today no matter what!"

The leading battlecruiser, the Lion, suddenly opened fire, interrupting their conversation.

"what happened?"

"General, the Lion suddenly discovered a torpedo. That was intercepted artillery fire just now!"

"How many submarines were discovered?" Liam's heart was beating fast. He was well aware of the power of torpedoes.

"The enemy ship disappeared after firing two torpedoes! The Lion is searching for it!"

"What are you looking for? This is just a delay. Order two cruisers to search, and also have Sturdy's two light cruisers come over to search for submarines!"

Leo originally wanted to release one of the submarines reserved for Liam to interfere with her, but the battlefield changed rapidly.

The remaining warships of Sturdy's fleet resisted fiercely and could not be captured for a long time, so Leo had to order the submarine to attack again.

He even wanted to kill the commanders of the four sunken submarines. They didn't understand the essence of the wolf pack tactics at all. Why didn't they run away after the fight? Now the situation was in a tangle.

A submarine received the order to harass Liam's fleet, although Leo knew that the hope was slim and it would not delay them too much time.

The other three submarines each had two torpedoes. This time they took advantage of the fact that Sturdy's fleet was exchanging fire with Leo and had no time to pay attention to them.

Approach stealthily, striving to hit the target with every shot.

The Foley had the support of the Von der Leyen, but the three Talen armored cruisers were like mad dogs and refused to give in. They endured the attack from the Von der Leyen in order to destroy the Foley.
