"The coordinates of the opponent's position have been calculated! Tell this group of barbarians that the Royal Navy is not scared with a few guns in hand! The gunner said in a vicious voice, it was the first time in this part of Asia that anyone dared to treat the Royal Navy like this!

In the turret, the gunners skillfully adjusted the secret position according to the calculated coordinates, and in less than a minute, the muzzles of the six main guns of the whole ship were adjusted to the correct direction.

Boom –

With a neat roar, six shells flew in the direction of the No. 1 artillery position.

Even though all six main guns were barrel-out, the recoil of the six guns shook the hull.

This also leads to the need to readjust the previous secret position, if it is an inexperienced navy, it needs to be recalculated again in this case, and for the gunners of the old overlord like the Royal Navy, how to adjust the secret position, they already know in their hearts.

After a few seconds of tension, the gunners readjusted the correct position, and the loader loaded the shell into the muzzle.

Boom - Boom——......

In just one minute, three rounds of shelling were already carried out!

Another British ship around saw the friendly forces and began to fight back.

Position No. 1 was ravaged by four- to six-inch guns, and even without the help of the observer, there were only a few rounds that deviated from the position.

"Division commander, position No. 1 has been subjected to local shelling."

"I see, the enemy ships are stopping and firing now, aren't they? It's time to fire! ”

"Yes!"

"Something is wrong!"

Andrei frowned and deepened the wrinkles on his forehead, if the other party was shelled, he should be able to fight back.

"Ten on the right side, two into three, ready to counterattack on your own!."

The opposing artillery positions were absolutely not destroyed! The previous cessation of artillery fire should have been thought of, the enemy transferred artillery positions!

"Hit the flag, let the second ship evade!"

Sure enough, less than half a minute after the flag was issued, the enemy's shells came again!

"Artillery fire is coming, people on deck, find cover!"

"Check the coordinates! Counterattack! ”

The constant sound of shells falling into the water and exploding was heard all around, which put a lot of psychological pressure on the sailors.

But they still did their job meticulously, they are the Royal Navy! How can you lose face in front of barbarians!

"Those Qing Dynasty troop carriers are on fire!"

"The second ship was hit by a bullet and caught fire! The second ship was shot and caught fire! ”

Even if it was found in advance, it was as if they were unlucky, and the bad news came one after another.

As soon as Andrei wanted to scold the barbarians for not knowing anything about tactical movements, he found that his colleague had also been shot.

It doesn't seem to be a matter of evasive action, the current intensity of artillery fire is indeed something that can be avoided by luck!

Suddenly, he felt a violent vibration, and Andre clung to the handrail to the side so as not to fall, and sure enough, even the ship was shot!

"How's it going?"

"Deck 3 was hit! The deck is starting to burn! Fire extinguishing is underway! ”

Fortunately, deck 3 was still some distance from the ammunition depot and could still be extinguished before the fire spread to the ammunition depot.

Damn, it's easier to handle if it's an armor-piercing bullet! Light ships are not afraid of armor-piercing shells at all! This damn high-explosive bomb will burn the deck if it gets wet! Not a metal battleship, there is really nothing to do about this high-explosive bomb.

"Damn, it's okay! Fight back! ”

"Yes!"

Andrei looked indignantly at the waterway map on the table, and was actually teased like this by the barbarian army, which was simply a shame for his life!

After three minutes, the barrel finally began to roar, which reassured Andrei a little.

Regardless of whether the other side has shifted positions or not, at least for twenty minutes, things on this side will be relatively stable.

"Captain, the Qing Dynasty people have shelled the enemy position with us!"

The words of another observer surprised Andrei a little.

Although it was a few minutes slower than this side, the other party finally reacted, which made Andrei's impression of the Qing Dynasty people improve a lot, but he suddenly saw that there was more smoke in the rear.

"Just now, another troop carrier was shot and caught fire."

"Sure enough, these barbarians should not be overestimated!" Andrei scolded secretly.

"Captain, this is not the way to go, obviously, we have no way to destroy the artillery positions of these barbarians, they can see us, but we can't see them, or retreat."

Nottingham said nervously, although he said that there would be punishment for losing this war.

However, if this warship is damaged in the hands of these barbarians, then it will be even more disgraced! Moreover, it is said that these barbarians have never been in the habit of leaving prisoners of war.

"What did you say?" Andrei asked, his face not showing the slightest expression.

"Otherwise, let's retreat." Nottingham carefully repeated.

This old fellow is definitely angry that the Royal Navy actually chose to run away during the war with the barbarians, which will be ridiculed by everyone.

"I'm talking about the previous sentence."

Andrei's eyes were not full of rebuke, but he was always excited, as if he had found some secret to defeat the other party.

"They can see us, but we can't see them."

"This is it!"

The old captain slapped his palm heavily, yes, this is it!

It is clear that the fleet sailing on the surface is more vulnerable to hitting, but in this battle, a completely opposite situation was formed.

The reason for this is the difference in the intelligence of the two sides! And the source of the information must be the scouts who hide themselves in the woods in front of them!

"There must be their artillery observers around here! Knock them out! The other side has to face us head-on. Andrei seemed to see the scene where the other party reluctantly pushed the artillery to the shore, and before he could start firing, he was swept away by his own gunners.

"But, Captain? The vegetation around here is so lush that you can't find the enemy's hideout. ”

Nottingham looked at this partner with black lines, this forest is not the size of a cannonball!

“…………”

Indeed, Nottingham has a point, this open field, wherever it is possible, to build an observation post, how can all these annoying things be eliminated?

Andrei fell into deep thought, of course shells will not work, but this ship only has some machine guns in addition to guns, so of course it will not work, what should I do? What to do?

"There it is."

This idea is enough to resolve the current crisis!
