At 9:13 a.m. on 29 August, the Air Force bombed the airship formation and discovered the Nanyang Fleet. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the Anglo-French combined fleet was less than fifty nautical miles away from the South Ocean Fleet, and the North Ocean Fleet had already passed by the British and French combined fleet and was turning to sail.

(Note: 1 section = 1 nautical mile / hour = 1.852 km / h, the author said that the unit conversion is troublesome, and there are some places in the naval battle that I don't understand, please bear with me if there are mistakes.) ）

At the speed of the combined Anglo-French fleet and the South Sea Fleet, the two fleets would meet (collide) in three hours, although there is a very small chance of passing by.

It seems that God wants the Han Kingdom to win, today's southerly wind, the wind is very small, which is very good news for the Air Force bombing airship formation, the wind is small, the airship flying in the air will be more stable, and the bombs dropped by the airship will be more stable.

At 9:32 a.m., Air Force Commander Yan Ji's No. 1 reconnaissance airship returned to the Air Force bombing airship formation, and Yan Ji was ready to command the upcoming naval and air battle.

Airship No. 1 gave the order for the bomber formation to follow it.

At 10:21 a.m., the Air Force bombed the airship formation and circled to the rear of the Anglo-French Combined Fleet, and after shaking in front of the Beiyang Fleet, it immediately pursued the Anglo-French Combined Fleet, while the Beiyang Fleet also accelerated its advance.

At 10:57 a.m., when the huge British and French combined fleet discovered the Nanyang Fleet, it put out a signal that "more than 10 enemy ships have been found in the northeast direction."

At eleven o'clock, the South Sea Fleet spotted the combined Anglo-French fleet.

At 11:30 a.m., the Anglo-French combined fleet and the South Sea Fleet were less than 12 kilometers away.

The enemy was in front of them, and the British and French troops on the Anglo-French combined fleet were excited, as if they were already able to destroy the Nanyang Fleet immediately, and their eyes were fixed on the Nanyang Fleet.

"Oh my God, what is that!" The sentry on the mast of a British cruiser turned around when he suddenly noticed a huge black unidentified object floating in the sky behind him.

The first soldier discovered the Air Force bombing airship formation, and then more Anglo-French Combined Fleet soldiers discovered the Air Force bombing airship formation, and at this time, the first airship, the No. 1 reconnaissance airship, had flown over the last battleship of the Anglo-French Combined Fleet.

The commander of the Anglo-French Combined Fleet, Rear Admiral Lisby, and the deputy commander, Rear Admiral Hamilton, were also overwhelmed by the behemoth in the sky, but they quickly reacted that it was an airship.

Airships were a rarity in Europe, but they had been seen by Rear Admiral Lisby and Rear Admiral Hamilton, and perhaps by others in the combined Anglo-French fleet, or in the newspapers.

But the airships they know are very small, far from being compared with the behemoths in the sky, the Kunpeng-8 heavy airship of the Han Kingdom Air Force is hundreds of meters long and dozens of meters in diameter, even the largest warship in the British and French combined fleet, the flagship Baya, is only 81 meters long and 17.5 meters wide, which shows the gap.

"How could there be such a big airship, and where did they come from?" Major General Lisby was surprised, but Major General Lisby also felt that the airship that could appear in Chinese waters was only from the Han Kingdom, but soon Major General Lisby threw away this idea, how could that backward country produce such a big airship, isn't it a joke.

Although Rear Admiral Lisby knew that this behemoth was an airship, he did not know what it was going to do, and he did not have the idea of throwing bombs from the airship in his mind.

The British and French troops on the Anglo-French combined fleet were so attracted by the airships in the sky that they seemed to have forgotten that there were still their enemies ahead, and of course, the people in the cabin could not see the outside scene, and they were still working hard to keep the battleship moving.

The flight speed of the air force bombing airship formation of the Han Kingdom was much faster than that of the Anglo-French combined fleet, at least four or five times that of it, and in this way, the air force bombing airship formation quickly flew over the British and French combined fleet, and the altitude of the airship was slowly decreasing.

At this time, the speed of the Air Force bombing airship formation had decreased, almost synchronized with the speed of the combined British and French fleet below, and the direction was the same, but the altitude of the airship was constantly decreasing.

One kilometer

Nine hundred meters

"No, what are they going to do?" Rear Admiral Hamilton saw the airship getting closer and closer to the battleship, and shouted in horror that no one knew what this "they" meant.

The No. 1 airship that Yan Di was riding on kept issuing various orders, and under his orders, the airships behind also moved, and while the bombing airship lowered its altitude, it selected the target it wanted to attack.

Eight hundred meters

Seven hundred meters

Bang!

I saw a soldier trembling with a rifle and fired a shot at a Kunpeng-7 medium airship, and this shot hit the airship's airbag, causing a small hole in the airbag, causing the helium in the airbag to leak out at an extremely slow speed.

"What are you doing?" The British officer on the battleship reprimanded the soldier loudly, and the British officer knew that it was an airship flying over his head, and he thought that the airship was filled with hydrogen, and once the soldier shot the airship with one shot, the burning airship fell, and the unlucky people on the entire battleship were unlucky.

This is the reason why Rear Admiral Lisby did not make any moves against the airship without knowing whether it was friend or foe.

However, the airship is getting closer.

Six hundred and fifty meters

Six hundred meters

"Order the ships to turn, speed up, and leave the enemy in front of you." Major General Lisby, who was very uneasy, immediately gave an order to the standard-bearer, who obeyed the order of Major General Lisby and began to wave the flag in his hand.

The warships of the Anglo-French combined fleet reacted quickly after seeing the flagship's flag, and the battleships began to turn and accelerate.

Five hundred meters

Four hundred meters

The warships of the Anglo-French combined fleet began to turn, but the airships in the sky followed suit, and the huge body of the airship did not appear clumsy, but much more agile than the warships on the sea.

Three hundred and fifty meters

"Shoot, shoot, take the airship down." Major General Lisby, who was becoming more and more frightened, also didn't care whether the airship was filled with hydrogen or not, and yelled for the soldiers to shoot.

One by one, the soldiers held rifles and fired at the airship hundreds of meters in the sky.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Rifle bullets hit the airship's airbag or the airship's cabin, but none of the airships were blown off.

A cloud of red smoke drifted from the cabin of Reconnaissance Airship One.

The commanders of the various bombing airships knew that it was an order to attack.

"Aim! Preparation! Bombing! (To be continued.) )
