"I want to run, no way!!"

The naval battle that spread for more than ten miles outside the port of Pujiazhong finally came to an end after a whole day of fighting.

As a stronger and more prepared party, the Wyvern Gang combined fleet paid a great price before finally gaining the upper hand.

In this naval battle, the Dutch were led by Colonel Lincoln himself, so at the beginning of the battle, the battle entered the tense and fierce side. Although they did not occupy the number of warships, relying on their advanced tactics and strong strength, at the beginning, they had the upper hand in naval warfare.

However, the combined fleet of the Flying Dragon Gang is not a vegetarian, as the so-called eating a trench grows a wisdom, after a few real battles with Westerners, there is Shi Peicai, a full-time soldier who can be said to be from the regular navy, to check and fill in the gaps, and the cooperation and drinking tactics of the Flying Dragon Gang Combined Fleet are much better than before.

Colonel Lincoln's big killer weapon in his heart, the flying Zeola first-class battleship that was originally driven by Governor James, but he didn't expect that it was intercepted by a third-class battleship that must have come from the Hongtang fleet.

The world knows that the Hongmen people are now technologically advanced, and there are tireless steam trains that run on steel tracks; At the same time, there are also steamships that emit black smoke and move themselves without wind.

Before, Westerners had already sensed the great changes brought by the steam machine to the world through their keen sense of smell, but they did not expect that this change would be so rapid, far beyond their imagination.

A steamship towed by a steam engine, even if it can only be regarded as a third-class battleship in itself, but in front of the powerful first-class battleship, they do not show the slightest advantage, and even vaguely occupy some advantages.

In the current naval battle, if you want to take the lead, one is to rely on strong ships and guns, and the other is to see the sailors' ability to handle the boat, and the rest is the time to be in the upper hand.

As for people and one, as long as it is not a rabble that has no training and can only fight a good fight, generally speaking, a team can do it.

The advent of the steam engine has made the time of day a controllable and changeable one, and the steamship that does not need to look at God's eyes to act, whether it is downwind or against the wind, it can ensure that it can move forward at a speed that other ships cannot reach, and even turn to change formation, etc., is as easy as a snap.

The impact on naval warfare was enormous, and only these sailors who had been in the army for many years could have a profound experience.

Now, when the Dutch pride of the first-class battleship Flying Ziola, facing a third-class battleship of the Wyvern Gang Combined Fleet, the difference in size and number of artillery between the two sides has changed dramatically through just a steam engine and an advanced technology.

The main killer weapon failed to play its important role, so for the Western Combined Fleet, in the case of the disadvantage in the number of warships, it was finally slowly consumed by the Wyvern Gang fleet, and then accumulated small advantages into big advantages, dragging the battle situation in a direction more favorable to their Wyvern Gang.

The final result is self-evident, even if Colonel Lincoln has racked his brains and brought their Western-style naval combat methods to the extreme, it is still difficult to resist the slow but determined encroachment of the Wyvern fleet.

And this, I have to say that Shi Peicai, as the think tank of the Flying Dragon Gang, is particularly suitable for the tactics formulated by the Flying Dragon Gang Combined Fleet, although he can't see anything brilliant, but he has taken the four words of steady and steady play to the extreme, using the remaining four main warships of Hongtang as the tip of the spear, sinking and defeating the opponent's battleships step by step, and finally until they dominated the entire battle.

In the end, the flying Ziora warship, which was pinned down by the Victory warship, saw that the battle situation gradually fell into an unfavorable situation, and when it was difficult to turn over, they tried to start breaking through, and the captain of the Victory warship, Battalion Commander Yao Siwei, finally caught such a big fish, how could he let the place succeed.

Relying on its own speed and more flexible steering, the Victory, which was flying over the Ziola, under the command of its own captain, focused its artillery fire on the opponent's weakest sail, and used grapeshot and chain bullets against each other, so that the flying Ziora warship gradually slowed down because of the serious damage to the sails.

This is again an important advantage of the steamer, as the power core, the steam engine, deep in the central core of the cabin, is almost difficult to be hit by cannonballs and lose power; On the other hand, the sail battleships of this era, the canvas used for the sails is flammable and easily damaged, and it has always been the most important target of the opponent in naval warfare.

With the speed of the two ships being similar, it was difficult to hit the sails of a ship under sail with the accuracy of the guns of this era.

However, when the steamship was changed again and again, and the maximum speed of the ship was able to reach more than 30 miles per hour, which warship could escape their pursuit.

"Hey, hey, hey, look where you're going!!"

Yao Siwei looked at the flying Ziora warship in front of him, slowly lowering his speed as most of the sails on board were damaged, and after floating on the sea, he smiled maliciously with red eyes.

"Battalion commander, we may not be able to eat this big fish alone!"

By Yao Siwei's side, although his subordinates were also blushing at the battle exploits in front of them, they could ensure that they were at least sensible, and said regretfully.

"Lao Tzu still needs you to remind me! Let the brothers destroy the mainmast of their warship first, and then when the brothers in the back arrive, we will rush up and take down this big fish. ”

Yao Siwei was pulled closer by Shi Peicai before the battle, and he didn't dare to let his soldiers lose too much, so even if he knew that this great achievement was in front of him, he couldn't rush up and take it strongly.

Of course, with the confidence of the Hongtang soldiers, Yao Siwei was extremely confident that he would be able to take this foreign ship, but if he forcibly took it, then for their Victory, which was only in its early 200s, the loss would be unpredictable.

Relying on the flexible speed and steering performance like a swimming fish, in the sound of the flying Ziola's cannons, the Victory was rarely hit by the opponent's artillery, but its own artillery bombardment again and again, always able to break through the gaps in the huge hull of the flying Ziora, or tear the already tattered sails.

However, as the three masts of the Ziora flew away, the main mast behind the ship could not withstand the blow, and soon after it slowly fell, a white flag was raised on the opposite warship.
