Another World: Naval Storm
Chapter 90 Beaching
The main and secondary guns on the Von der Tann, which were still usable, fired many armor-piercing shells at the pursuing Lion, forcing the Lion to slow down and fall behind.
Liam kept his eyes on the Von der Tann, and the Lion was hit by three shells from the Von der Tann, one of which hit its forward magazine, but it was saved by letting seawater in. Another shell blew through the hull, seawater rushed in, and the port main engine was forced to shut down.
"Leo is so amazing. Even though his battleship was badly damaged, he was still able to cause such serious damage to the Lion!" Alex exclaimed.
"Just a last-ditch struggle!" Liam knew that Leo couldn't escape.
The Lion slowed down, the ship's power supply was intermittent, and it was unable to use radio and light signals for combat for a long time. It soon fell to the back of the team.
Liam ordered the Royal Princess and Queen Mary to deploy and surround the von der Tann from both sides. Once they reached the position, the von der Tann would be unable to resist with just one turret.
Leo also saw it, but there was nothing he could do about it. Strength is strength, and the crushed party is very miserable.
"Dawson, where are we?"
"We're not far from Sierra Leone." Dawson gestured on the map and determined his current location.
"Beach!"
"General, this..." You have to know that Sierra Leone was a colony of the Kingdom of Talen at that time. Although it was not taken seriously, it still had an army of several hundred people.
"This is the only way to avoid being captured! The continent of Felix is so big, it will be difficult for them to capture us as long as we go ashore!"
"General, let us go ashore and serve as marines. In land warfare, the navy is no worse than the army!"
Under Leo's command, the Von der Tann rushed towards the Sierra Leone coastline at the fastest speed.
"What are they doing? Why aren't they slowing down?" Alex looked at the actions of the Von der Tann in surprise, considering that there was a shallow shoal ahead.
"Leo is so cunning, they are going to rush to the beach!" Liam guessed Leo's intention at the first time.
"Isn't that a sitting duck?"
"We have been in Xunyang for so many years. There is an old saying in Xunyang: You must face death before you can survive!"
"Then you might as well surrender. At least you and I are here, and Leo will definitely not be treated unfairly!"
"Haha, you don't know him yet. Although he often says that he doesn't want to join the army and always wants to retire and go home to be a rich man, he is not lacking in the stubbornness of the Drake people."
"That's right!" Alex agreed.
After a sound of steel friction came from the hull of the Von der Tann, it slid forward dozens of meters under the impact force and stopped on the soft beach.
"Hurry, get off the ship!" In a busy moment, 700 officers and soldiers on the Von der Tann got off the ship with weapons, equipment and supplies, and hid in the woods near the shore. They were tired after fighting all day and all night. Some of them fell asleep leaning against trees, while others bandaged and treated the wounded.
The original crew of the Von der Tann was 923 people, including 41 officers. After many battles, dozens of the remaining 700 people were injured.
Liam led the fleet to observe the Von der Tann from a distance without firing a shot.
"Send a signal, tell Leo it's me, and ask him to surrender!" Then the entire fleet sent out a signal, and the lights were very conspicuous in the dark night.
"General, wake up, wake up!" Dawson shook the sleepy Leo.
"I thought, it turns out to be my old friend!"
"General, then are we?"
"Of course not, we still have so many people, equivalent to an infantry regiment of the empire. We are dragons on the sea and lions on land! There are still many Taren people waiting for us to beat them!" Leo is very open-minded. He believes that he has not reached the end of his rope yet.
"Dawson, accompany me back to the Tann. I want to chat with my friends! Also, organize people to board the ship and take away all the useful things. This is the capital for us to move to the Felix Continent!"
Some of Leo's officers and soldiers returned to the ship, turned on the signal and started communicating with Liam.
"My friend, are you okay?"
"Of course I'm living a good life. It would be even better if you came back to Tarun with me. I would introduce my wife to you!" These were Liam's exact words. This was a bit too ambiguous to the enemy, but Liam had a high prestige in the First Battle Patrol Squadron and they would not regard him as a spy.
"I will definitely go see Madam if I have the chance, but forget it this time!"
"Now the entire Felix continent is controlled by Talen and its allies. Leo, you can't run away. If you surrender now, your safety can be guaranteed. It will be bad if the army barbarians catch you!" Liam was telling the truth. The Talen Royal Navy looked down on the army.
"Don't worry, you know I'm a good shooter too!" The light signals on the Von der Tann kept flashing to form a complex language, which was learned from the Talen people. As for you taking it seriously, this is simply impossible?
Brother, this is a different world. The Taren people invented a universal signal language, so general communication is no problem. Of course, some dirty talk is also okay. After all, nobles have many quirks.
"That's right, General. When he was stationed in Xunyang, he had the best shooting skills among all the coalition forces."
Liam rolled her eyes and ignored him. "Give Leo an ultimatum. If he doesn't surrender within half an hour, we'll open fire!"
At this time, the general situation of the naval battle has been reported back to the country. It must be very lively now, and he doesn't have much time.
"It's been delayed long enough. Dawson, how's the transportation of supplies going?"
"It's almost done!"
"Then leave a dozen people behind to operate the main gun with me!" Leo planned to use the Von der Tann as a fixed artillery position.
"General, please retreat. I'm here with my men!"
"Nonsense, are you as accurate as me? Hurry up and take your men back!" Dawson shook his head frantically and refused to leave.
Half an hour passed quickly, and Liam shook her head and waved her right hand.
Suddenly, thousands of artillery pieces were fired at once. Three Talen battlecruisers and two armored cruisers unleashed fierce fire. The 3 twin-mounted 2mm naval guns destroyed the world.
However, the Von der Tann was as stubborn as the Drakes, and it still stood there even after being hit by more than a hundred shells.
"Hiss, the defense of this battleship is really strong. It was hit by so many bullets but the ammunition depot didn't explode."
"Yeah!" Liam agreed, but the firing continued.
Leo commanded the main gun to adjust its angle. The vibration from the shells hitting the hull of the Von der Tann told Leo that he might die at any time. He was under the scythe of the god of death.
The ammunition depot of the Von der Tann had actually been hit several times. Fortunately, due to multiple battles, the shells stored in it had been used up, and only two shells had been stuffed into the remaining main gun.
"General, you'd better evacuate!" This was the opinion of everyone in the main gun turret.
