Chapter 541 (1/2)

This is not the Tomahawk missile of later generations. It is said to hit the left window and never the right window. The error accuracy is calculated in meters.

The naval guns of this era can hit the target only when there is a mechanical fire commander. In order not to damage the main structure of the other party's ship body, their elevation angle is quite high and will never hit the ship body.

Either hit the bridge or shoot from a distance.

There is no doubt that most of the shells flew, but one hit!

This 283mm armor piercing bullet hit the chimney in the middle of the bridge!

Whether using coal-fired boilers or heavy oil boilers, thick chimneys are needed. When accelerating, the black smoke can be seen more than ten kilometers away.

Even some cruise ships will deliberately build some tall windows to form the unique beauty of this era.

The steel warhead at the front end of the armor piercing projectile directly penetrated the weak steel plate of the chimney. Then, a violent explosion occurred in the 47.5kg copper barrel and 42.5kg explosive.

”Boom!” A huge explosion sounded. With the explosion, shrapnel flew everywhere. The high pressure generated by the explosion directly tore the chimney completely!

The chimney is integrated with the bridge. When the chimney is cracked, it means that the bridge is also blown open!

As the explosion sounded, several sailors screamed and fell down in the cabin of the bridge next to the chimney.

At the same time, when the chimney is blown open, the smoke in the chimney will no longer rise along the chimney, but go in all directions!

When the whole smoke wrapped the bridge, a panic began to spread in the hearts of the whole French sailors.

The bridge is over, the senior commanders are over, what should the remaining sailors do?

The deck operation stopped again. In fact, in their hearts, they had thought of it for a long time. Now it's useless to release the carrier plane! At this distance, naval guns are important.

”What are you panicking about? Keep cheering me up, we haven't lost yet! ” On the bridge, general labard shouted.

Black smoke filled the air and people coughed involuntarily. However, there was no pain on their bodies, which showed that they were still alive.

At this time, general labard is still very calm. As a veteran, he will not leave his post without permission at this time!

Not yet!

Labard's confidence infected everyone, and captain Colonel gerary shouted: ”control the damage, report quickly, carrier aircraft, continue to take off!”

Keep flying the carrier plane! Let the Germans know their strength!

The broadcasting system was still intact. Colonel gerary's order spread all over the ship. Suddenly, they were ready to continue the battle.

But the Germans won't give them a chance!

The humiliation of the Versailles treaty is printed in every German's mind. They have been in strict training all the time. They move very quickly. Almost immediately after the first volley, they quickly load the second time.

Each gun needs 12 people to operate.

A handler moved the front ammunition to the hoister, while the main ammunition was transported by slides and pulleys（ Large caliber naval guns are sub packed, and warheads and cartridges are two parts.)
