However, the disintegration of the expeditionary force fleet has also brought a certain degree of difficulty to the KPA fleet, because the number of the KPA fleet is already small, and the expeditionary force fleet is scattered and fleeing, of course, there are some things that cannot be taken care of.

Of course, Wang Hailong was also prepared for this, and immediately ordered the Southern Fleet to change its formation, and the establishment of each sub-fleet was immediately disrupted and reorganized, with a battleship or armored cruiser and a protective cruiser and a destroyer as a group, so that the Southern Fleet could be divided into seven groups and then separately meet the Far Eastern Fleet, or according to the battlefield situation, two or three groups would form a team to fight, and the three warships would be in command and dispatch. In this way, the fleet's actions are much more flexible, and the operation is mainly to intercept, and it is to try its best to stop those warships that try to escape from the flank, but it does not require that the warships must be sunk, as long as they are stopped and do not break through and escape. If there is really a loophole, it will be struck by three warships.

Although Wang Hailong was very arrogant on the surface, he still knew the overall situation in his heart, the Southern Fleet only had a total of 23 warships, and it was not an easy thing to stop the expeditionary fleet, but the pursuit fleet of the Northern Fleet was also coming, and as soon as the Northern Fleet arrived, there were nearly 40 warships on both sides, so that they could attack front and rear and encircle and annihilate the expeditionary fleet.

Sure enough, after the Southern Fleet changed formations, it would be much more difficult for the expeditionary fleet to break through from the flanks, because there were always warships blocking them, and once they went around, the blow would come from the sky. The blow also gave rise to fear, so when they saw that a KPA warship intercepted them, most of the warships chose to turn around and turn back, at least to distance themselves from the KPA fleet first, and did not want to engage the KPA warships at all.

When the warships of the expeditionary fleet were withdrawn one by one, the KPA fleet did not follow closely, but several groups went hand in hand, slowly advancing forward, keeping their own distance from each other and slowly closing the net. However, due to the fact that the overall advance speed of the People's Army fleet was not fast, and the expeditionary force fleet did not feel too much pressure after turning around, and the casualties of the fleet were not large, it was even more unwilling to fight to the death.

About an hour later, the red sun was sinking in the west, and the sky was getting darker, except for the occasional one or two warships that escaped from the gap intercepted by the KPA fleet, most of the warships of the expeditionary force fleet were intercepted, and the warships that had been scattered regrouped.

The pursuing warships of the Northern Fleet of the People's Army Fleet finally arrived, and under the command of the Yueyang Fleet, they advanced together with the Southern Fleet, attacked the north and south, and constantly squeezed the expeditionary fleet, leaving less and less space for the expeditionary fleet's activities, and the two sides finally fought fiercely again.

And although it was not completely dark at this time, the visibility had been greatly reduced, and for this era of completely relying on visual aiming, the ability to fight at night would be greatly weakened, but the shooting of the KPA warships did not necessarily rely on visual aiming, because there were modern warships to provide parameters, so there was almost no impact, and as a result, at this time, the shelling of the KPA fleet still maintained a high hit rate in the past, while the hit rate of the expeditionary fleet was greatly reduced, so there were successive warships sunk.

At this time, the officers and men of the expeditionary fleet also knew that if they continued to fight like this, they would be completely annihilated, and many people regretted it. But now it's too late to regret it, if you don't want to be captured, then you can only take the risk of breaking through and strive to be able to fight for a glimmer of life, so the expeditionary fleet has also forcibly broken through, and the People's Army is under the dispatch and command of the Xiangyang ship, trying its best to intercept it.

However, at this time, the number of warships of the expeditionary force fleet was still higher than that of the People's Army, so once the warships of the expeditionary force fleet desperately broke through and wanted to completely block it, it would be impossible. Therefore, Wang Hailong adopted the tactic of grasping the big and letting go of the small, and ordered all warships to stop the destroyers and small and medium-sized cruisers of the expeditionary fleet, and let them break through if they could not be stopped, and let them break through, and the modern warships will strike at them with **, if they can withstand the ** blow, even if they are lucky, if they can't bear it, they can only be sunk.

However, the battleships, armored cruisers, large cruisers and other warships of the expeditionary fleet must be intercepted, of course, the targets of these warships are obvious, and compared with small and medium-sized warships, the flexibility of maneuver is also insufficient, Guan Jian is to let go of small and medium-sized warships, and the number of warships that need to be intercepted is also greatly reduced, so it is not difficult to intercept. At the same time, the KPA fleet also looked for opportunities to signal surrender to the besieged warships, or to launch boarding operations.

At this time, it also reflects the comprehensive quality of the navies of various countries, in the face of the advance of the People's Army, the performance of the British fleet is the most heroic, although all British warships have suffered heavy losses, but all ships are struggling to resist, the surrender of the People's Army, without exception, refused, and finally the battleships Exmouth, Russell, armored cruiser Crécy, protective cruiser Crown, etc. were all sunk by the People's Army, but the People's Army also took advantage of the evening afterglow, launched a boarding battle, and finally won the battleship Majesty, The two warships protected the cruiser Mighty Might, while the British destroyers were also sunk by the KPA several on the way, and only three destroyers escaped from the siege.

The fleets of Russia and the Netherlands performed the worst, because these two countries were originally numbered in the expeditionary force, and they thought that they could follow behind the fleets of Britain and France, even if they could not eat meat, they could drink a few mouthfuls of soup, but they were defeated, and the navies of these two countries did not have the courage and determination to fight to the death, so as soon as the KPA gave the signal of surrender, the remaining warships of the two countries also immediately responded and raised the white flag.

The Russian warships surrendered were the battleship Pantlemon and two destroyers, while the Dutch surrendered the battleship Seven Provinces, the protective cruisers Aruba and Saint-Martin, and one destroyer.

The French fleet was the strongest in the expeditionary fleet, and the arrogance of the French was not inferior to that of the British, so the resistance of the French fleet was also quite strong, and in the fierce battle, it also sank 3 cruisers and 2 destroyers of the People's Army fleet. However, after the KPA fleet deliberately let go of some destroyers and small cruisers, and sank some warships, the final 15 warships of the KPA fleet, including 4 battleships and 3 armored cruisers, surrounded the French 2 battleships, 3 armored cruisers, 4 defensive cruisers, and 2 destroyers, a total of 11 warships.

After trapping the French fleet, the People's Army fleet did not rush to attack, but issued a surrender flag to the French fleet, but the surrender of the People's Army was strongly rejected by the commander of the French fleet, Ginole, so the People's Army fleet launched an attack on the French fleet. So after a heavy bombardment of the KPA fleet, it sank 4 French warships, then stopped the attack again, and again signaled the surrender to the French fleet.

Moreover, this time, the People's Army fleet also sent an envoy to board the French warship to negotiate with the commander of the French fleet, Ginole. In addition to surrendering is the fate of being sunk, the East China government is based on the principle of humanitarianism, hoping that the French warships will surrender to the People's Army in order to avoid meaningless casualties, and at the same time, like the French fleet, they have offered better conditions, such as not being treated as prisoners of war after surrendering, the wounded can be given priority treatment, and after the war is over and the two countries have reached an agreement, they can be released first, and so on.

However, Ginole also put forward his own conditions to the envoys, that the French warships could surrender to the People's Army, but that during the period of capture, all the French soldiers would remain on the warships, not in the prisoner of war camps; the warships would be controlled by French soldiers, and the East China Government could only supervise them on the shore, and could not board the ships without permission, and of course the warships could be completely disarmed; and after the war was over and the two countries reached an agreement, the warships and their crews would be released unconditionally.

After receiving the request from the French, Wang Hailong was also quite annoyed, and the Gallic chickens were too ignorant of what to do, and they had already been beaten to this point, and they actually sent superior shelfs to put forward such rude conditions, and they didn't know where they got the courage. To be honest, if he hadn't taken a fancy to the two French battleships, Wang Hailong would have been too lazy to spit?

Since the French themselves don't know what to do, then Wang Hailong is not polite, it is difficult for you not to surrender, I will not get the warship, so Wang Hailong ordered to launch a boarding operation against the French warship.

At this time, these 7 French warships basically had no resistance, so they were soon approached by the warships of the People's Army, and boarded the French warships, and the French soldiers on each warship resisted hard, but the French soldiers Bi Jing was outnumbered, and the People's Army could also get fire support from their own warships, so some warships also opened the valve at the bottom of the ship and sank themselves, of course, the People's Army also stopped the French soldiers on several warships and controlled the warships.

After about 30 minutes of fighting, the battleships Joraguibéry, the armored cruisers Joan of Arc, and Duprai sank, while the battleships Sufren, the armored cruiser Kleber, the protective cruisers Burrod, and the Friante Tina were taken under the control of the KPA, while the commander of the French fleet, Ginol, was killed in the embarkation battle of the Resistance People's Army.

By this time, the battle had all ended, but the sky had completely darkened, so Wang Hailong ordered all warships to clean up the battlefield, rescue the enemy soldiers who had fallen into the water, and so on.
