Me, Godzilla, you want me to be a ship girl admiral?

Chapter 20 The era of giant ships and cannons is over

The battle between KanColle and Sirens is actually very close to the real-world naval battles of World War II.

Discover the enemy, fire first, adjust the formation to avoid bombardment, and inflict maximum damage to the enemy. This is the basic tactic of naval battles in World War II, with many changes in the details.

This is different from modern naval warfare, which completely abandons armor-and-bullet confrontation. In other words, armor is not important in modern naval warfare. What is important is defensive weapons, such as close-in weapon systems, which are one of the defensive weapons.

The naval battles of World War II were still about armor-piercing and shell-to-shell confrontation.

"fire!!!"

Bismarck stood on the deck like an emperor, his naval sword raised forward.

Although her 380mm caliber main gun is not as good as Yamato's 460mm caliber main gun, it is also the main caliber of conventional battleships. It is better to say that Yamato's 460mm main gun is abnormal.

Most of the main gun's long-range salvos landed next to the destroyer Siren, but two of them landed on the destroyer in the front row, directly penetrating the Siren's hull.

"It's worn out."

"cut."

Bismarck clicked his tongue.

What can I do to get through her?!

Generally, when a large ship attacks a small ship, it will either sink it with just a few shots, or the shell will just penetrate without causing any serious damage. The shell will pass from one side to the other without detonating the ammunition or damaging important structures within the ship.

The time it took to reload the main guns was enough for the two fleets to close the distance until the destroyers could open fire.

Cleveland, Firefly, and Fletcher also opened fire, and Siren's destroyers also opened fire. The shells from both sides formed a rainbow of shells in the air, and the shells fell near Firefly. The explosion caused Firefly's hull to shake violently.

But the Siren's artillery fire was not accurate enough and only caused minor damage to the Fireflies.

"Firefly, slow down, I'll take the damage!"

As a battleship, Bismarck naturally rushed to the front line.

"Hey, wait a minute, Bismarck, be careful of torpedoes!"

The main guns of a destroyer are almost useless against a battleship of Bismarck's level. The armor gap is too big. At most, they can cause some fire and damage some secondary guns, but torpedoes are different.

Torpedoes are one of the reasons why battleships are gradually becoming obsolete.

Huge battleships find it difficult to avoid torpedoes. Once hit by a torpedo, the damage is so severe that it becomes difficult to repair and the ship sinks.

The second is aerial bombs. Too many aerial bombings will also lead to a large reduction in crew members and an inability to navigate normally. In short, the era of giant ships and cannons was in World War I, and World War II was the era of aircraft carriers.

Designed at the end of World War II, the Bismarck barely kept up with the times.

"No problem, just three destroyers, even with only their secondary guns, are enough to sink them."

The ships of both sides were not of the same tonnage. Even a fraction of the Bismarck was heavier than these Siren destroyers, and the firepower was even more different. All the artillery on one side opened fire, and even the machine guns began to fire bullets after entering the range.

The firepower of the two sides was not at the same level. Bismarck alone could unleash the firepower of an entire destroyer fleet.

The three destroyers began to be hit frequently, and when Bismarck's main gun fired again, a shell hit the command tower of the Siren destroyer directly, causing a violent explosion.

The remaining two destroyers were also covered by the firepower of the four ships. They were hit and caught fire within a few minutes and gradually began to sink.

"Won!"

Bismarck raised his head proudly.

She fought very well in her first battle and will definitely help the commander obtain a lot of supplies.

"Well done, Bismarck," Dr. Serizawa praised.

However, the next second, Firefly noticed something and shouted loudly: "Be careful, Bismarck, there are torpedoes underwater!!!" More than a dozen torpedoes had approached Bismarck from underwater. Bismarck's pupils shrank, and he quickly began to speed up and cut inward in the direction of the torpedo launch.

This way she can stay parallel to the direction of the torpedo launch and avoid most of them.

But her huge body became a burden at this time. Even though she turned the steering wheel, two torpedoes still hit the bottom of the ship.

Boom! Boom!
Two dull sounds were heard, and Bismarck's uniform was instantly torn into several cracks. It seemed that she was seriously injured.

"Bismarck, are you okay?"

"It's nothing serious. The cabin is flooded, but it won't sink in the short term."

After all, the battleship's displacement is not comparable to that of a destroyer. Bismarck immediately closed the flooded cabin. She would not sink, but she just felt a little humiliated.

"Damn it, was he hit by a torpedo again?"

She was lucky. If she had been hit by more than a dozen torpedoes, the speed of water inflow would have been unrecoverable and the battleship would have sunk.

"As long as it's not sunk, let's return to port. Our three ships will be able to transport the supplies."

"I'm truly sorry that such serious damage occurred during our first battle."

"Never mind that without the Bismarck's firepower, it will take us a long time to defeat the enemy."

Cleveland comforted Bismarck, saying that Bismarck still did not have enough combat experience and it was normal to suffer some minor losses.

"Doctor, Bismarck is heading back to port. We'll be back later."

"Ah."

Dr. Serizawa nodded.

This was my first time patrolling the sea and I encountered something like this. I felt like I was starting off badly, but honestly, few of the Iron Blood battleships seemed to have a good ending, which was incomparable to the White Eagle battleships next door.

"As long as it's not sunk, come back soon."

Once the supplies are shipped back this time, there should be enough to build another large ship. It would be best if it could be an aircraft carrier.

With the reconnaissance advantage of aircraft, torpedoes and enemies can be better detected.

If you don't want to send out an aircraft carrier, you can send out a battleship. Two battleships combined with other small boats are one of the most stable fleet formations.

"You can't sleep all the time."

Dr. Serizawa looked at his own Godzilla form outside the window and sighed.

"You're being too lazy. Once the security of the Admiral's Mansion stabilizes, I'll go out and find someone to fight. Australia, Asia, or America are all good choices."

It's time for Godzilla to see what level of combat power the "country" in this world possesses. Previously, a small admiral had a fleet of more than 40 ships, so a country at this level must have some technology or power that he has never seen.

Atlantis in the deep sea is also good, you can go and take a look. After all, the ocean is Godzilla's territory.

At this time, Godzilla noticed that a submarine had risen from an empty berth at the dock. This submarine was larger than the SEAL-class submarine and was about fifty meters long. It was obvious that Austin's companions had arrived.

The person who got off the boat was a red-haired woman dressed as a pirate, carrying a suitcase in her hand.

"Hello, hello, is anyone there?"

The voice of the man named 'Javier' was heard in the communication channel.

"We have already sent someone to take over. Please send someone to the port as well."
