And after eating "wood" and "stone" for dozens of days, when Yang Yonglin made this suggestion again, Hipper did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Has Yang Guan taken you to think about your own back path?" ”

"My generation fought to the death for the sake of it. The ship sank and people died! Yang Yonglin's answer is very simple, he swears not to surrender, Yang Yonglin in history finally had a bullet to end his life, and this time, the road he arranged for himself will be more decent, more vigorous!

"You have done your best for this country, such a corrupt government is not worthy of allegiance. You have an almost innate instinct for naval warfare, and if you change to a broader stage, you will have a greater future. And you may not die well if you stay in the Qing Dynasty. Hipper said seriously.

"A wider stage? Hehe, the defeated man dares to speak up? The ship is there, but the ship is dead. Yang Yonglin smiled bitterly.

"Come to Germany, our Royal Highness the Prince appreciates officers like you, and if you agree, you and your men will be sheltered by the German government after the battle. As well as your family, and even your future path, His Royal Highness the Prince has arranged it, and you can go to the Kiel Naval School to teach. Your level and track record are fully worthy of this position. ”

For heroes, Ruprecht admires them very much, and if he can, he can help arrange a back road. So before leaving, Ruprecht had already told Hipper his idea, after all, the latter was a Bavarian, and it would be more comfortable to leave it to him. And as comrades who have been fighting together for so long, after nibbling together on dark and hard bread and beef jerky that needs to be handled with a file, Hippert is willing to help out of the perspective of a friend.

"Think about it, we're going to fight until the last moment! The glory of Kaiyuan will be maintained! But after the battle, I would like you to go with me to Germany, even if it is for temporary refuge. I will entertain you and your family at my home in Bavaria. Even His Royal Highness the Prince will invite you to the royal palace. In the end, Hipper said sincerely.

"Yang Guanband, it's the Japanese fleet!" When Yang Yonglin was about to reject Hippert again, an officer pointed to the pillar of smoke that was gradually becoming clear in the distance and said loudly.

"I can't go!" When the figure of the Japanese fleet gradually became clear, almost everyone realized that the last moment had come! Following the formation of the Japanese fleet, Yang Yonglin and others could even distinguish the models of these warships.

The first was naturally the Kasuga 1st class cruiser, the second was the 2nd class cruiser Takasago, although the tonnage was much smaller, but the firepower was very fierce, the third was Chiyoda, and the fourth was Akashi. The elite of the Japanese Navy gathered! The average speed is more than 19 knots! It's ten o'clock in the morning! The weather was clear and visibility was good. God is not beautiful, the other party can fight and run, the number is crushing, and there are not even enough shells on his side! How can such a bomb win?

"Hehe, if I can survive, I really want to go to Germany to see, by the way, visit the birthplace of the Kaiyuan cruiser, I will bring its battle flag back to the place where it was born, a true warrior should return to his hometown." Yang Yonglin sighed in his heart.

"The fleet is ready for battle!" At the last moment, the Kaiyuan staggered a U-shaped course on the sea, since there is no escape, let's face it! "The battleship concentrated all its firepower to attack the Chiyoda!" Even in the battle of inevitable defeat, Yang Yonglin still made the most rational and correct choice!

If Kaiyuan can sink one of the opponent's warships in the end! Then it can only be Chiyoda! Don't think about the Kasuga, now the Kaiyuan, which is now yellow-blooded and only one-third blue, may not be able to beat the Kasuga full of blood and demons, the Takasago seems to be a delicious target, but the agility is too high, and the output is also very strong, and the protection of the core cabin is also good. If you can't beat it, you can at least run. And the Akashi is located at the back of the formation, although it is a third-class cruiser, but the displacement is not low, and the key is that it can run away if the situation is not good.

But Chiyoda is different! This ship is the smallest tonnage! Only about 2400 tons! In other words, the shortest health bar! Although it is known as an armored cruiser, the defensive power of this battleship can only be described as hehe! Basically, there is no problem of not being able to wear it! And most critically, there is a problem with the ship's power system! Maybe the price given by the Japanese was too low, and even the British couldn't stand it, so they secretly replaced the original battleship boiler with a train boiler, and among these 4 battleships, the Chiyoda is the longest! The state is also the worst! At this time, who will you fight if you don't hit you?

"It's coming!" Biryama Shiki personally commanded the Kasuga, and when he watched the scarred Kaiyuan go towards its final fate like the Norse gods in the twilight of the gods, Biryama Shiki also had to say a word! "Order the fleet to fire a 21-gun salute!" 21 gun salutes, this is almost the treatment of a head of state! Although the Japanese are brutal, there are also people who respect true warriors.

The small cannons of the upper 6-pounder guns of the four battleships served as salutes in this special "protocol" mission. Although it was messy, it was still solemn in this solemn atmosphere. At this time, Birch Hill Shiji could already claim that he was the victor, the other party had run out of oil, and even the cannonballs might not be enough, and the champagne to celebrate the victory could already be put on the table, but at this moment he hesitated!

"We can persuade the ship to surrender and then capture it, and I can guarantee the rights of the captured on behalf of the British Navy. I don't think it makes sense for your country, right? Colonel Ingalls, who was traveling with the ship, suggested, and in the face of this suggestion, Birch Hill was really moved!

Although the record of the battleship "Super God" in front of him was brushed up on the Japanese! At least nearly 10,000 Japanese soldiers are directly or indirectly related to the life and death of them. But what a good ship! Especially in the face of the Japanese Navy in the current situation, such a warship has incalculable value.

"They won't surrender. To make such a request for such a warrior is simply an insult to the warrior and an insult to our intelligence! Kasuga Captain Hirai Hangzo shook his head and said.

The captain is right, Yang Yonglin and the others are not stupid, they should have known the ending after the last engagement, if they want to live, then just drive the ship to a neutral port, and then disarm with dignity and wait for the war to end. But they didn't! This battleship continues to bite the Japanese transport lines like a mad dragon! Until yesterday! This vein that holds the Japanese Army front together is still bleeding!

"But there are Germans on it! They have no reason to fight to the death for the Qing Kingdom! Ingalls said.

"Well, don't dwell on that, no matter what the Germans think, the battleship has already made a decision! He decided to fight to the end! We should respect their choice! "At this time, the battle flag on the Kaiyuan, which is ready to engage the enemy, has been raised! Birch Hill Shiki eliminates all distractions and prepares for the final battle of this war!

The second is more ~~~, ask for Sanjiang tickets ~~~, ask for collection ~~~.
