The 22 bombers of this naval aviation group are currently the most advanced military bombers in the world.

The own weight of this military bomber is 3975 kg; engine power 2x260 hp; The maximum flight speed is 140 km/h, the ceiling is up to 6,500 meters, and the continuous flight is 835 kilometers. The aircraft was loaded with weapons, 3 heavy machine guns, and carried 500 kg of bombs.

At the same time, behind the group of war eagles, the L-18 and L-19 airships were flying silently towards the French Far East Fleet at a speed of 40 knots in the high air above the East China Sea.

The French Far East Fleet found the bombers circling twice over their fleet and dropped hundreds of bombs from them.

In an instant, the neat formation of the French fleet was blown to pieces. The fleet commander ordered the fleet to quickly pull away and disperse for sailing.

At the same time, the fleet gunners were ordered to adjust their muzzles and fire anti-aircraft guns at these bombarded aircraft.

At the same time that Chen Fang was sending a maritime aviation brigade to bomb the French army at high altitude, he ordered the submarines Z-1687Z-1688Z-1689Z-16810Z-16811 of Pang Hucheng's submarine force to carry out a torpedo attack on the French troops from underwater.

At 7:58, the Huaxia Naval Aviation Group carried out the first round of air raids on 38 French warships.

10,000 kilograms of explosives were dropped on the French Far East Fleet, the French cruiser Paris and the Vostok were sunk, thirteen warships caught fire, and nine lost power. The rest of the ships were attacked to varying degrees.

The battleship "Cam Ranh", the flagship of the fleet, to which Vice Admiral Abel, commander of the French Far East Fleet, was located, although the losses were relatively small, but it was also damaged to a certain extent.

At 8:12, Colonel Nangong Wentian, the captain of the Huaxia Aviation Unit, gave the order for the second wave of attacks.

On the airfield of the Chongming Island Naval Aviation Brigade, 18 military bombers took off.

At 8:31 a.m., 18 bombers flew over the French Far East Fleet, and in an instant, 18 bombers rained down nearly 10,000 kilograms of explosives.

Although the commander of the French fleet, Abel, urgently ordered the gunners of the warships to shell the planes hovering in the air, in the panic, not only did these cannons not knock out a single plane, but these stray bullets accidentally damaged the warships of his own fleet, so that the French fleet was in chaos.

At 8:37 a.m., the battleship "Cam Ranh" began to fire at the aircraft attacking from the front. In the confusion of heavy artillery fire, a plane was successfully shot down.

The ground command of naval aviation, after being informed that a plane of the aviation group was shot down and the pilot was missing.

Nangong Wentian, the captain of the aviation brigade, immediately ordered the remaining 17 planes to take turns to carry out a retaliatory attack on the French battleship "Cam Ranh."

After the battleship "Cam Ranh" shot down a plane of the Chinese Empire, all the officers and men of the ship cheered and jumped.

Sun Budi hated the master of star art

Little did they know that the catastrophe had begun.

The 17 Imperial bombers poured all their remaining more than 5,000 kilograms of bombs on the "Cam Ranh".

Stormy bombs hit the Cam Ranh from all directions. Abel never dreamed that the naval power of the Chinese Empire would be so powerful.

This was perhaps the most tragic battle he commanded, and now the fleet was completely paralyzed, and they had nothing to do to deal with the bombing of the Chinese naval aviation, which was a completely crushing one-sided war.

Abel commanded the battleship "Cam Ranh" and tried to escape from the air attack of the Chinese Imperial Maritime Air Brigade, but after the "Cam Ranh" was shot several times, it had to start sinking.

At 8:59 a.m., the ammunition depot of the battleship "Cam Ranh" was hit and exploded by three bombs dropped by bombers of the Huaxia Air Brigade, and the "Cam Ranh" sank 10 minutes later, and the commander-in-chief of the French Far East Fleet, Abel, and a part of the fleet sailors were rescued by the battleship "Triumphal Arch", and the remaining crew members of the "Cam Ranh" were all killed.

Vice Admiral Riando, deputy commander of the French Far East Fleet and captain of the battleship "Arc de Triomphe", urged Abel to surrender to the navy of the Chinese Empire, but Abel sternly refused, and ordered the guards to tie up Riando and remove him from his post as deputy commander of the fleet and captain of the "Arc de Triomphe".

Abel directly assumed the command of the "Arc de Triomphe" and declared the "Arc de Triomphe" as the temporary flagship, reorganized the remaining 17 warships of the French army, and quickly formed a one-column formation to move closer to the British fleet in the Tsushima Strait.

The two rounds of air raids of the Huaxia Imperial Air Force have ended, and the 17 planes that Abel roared away, he told all the officers and men: The Huaxia Air Force, even if it conducts a third round of air raids, it will take at least nearly two hours of preparation before they can reach our skies, and now, they are advancing at full speed towards the Tsushima Strait!

Unbeknownst to him, 6,000 meters above him, two German-made airships, L-18 and L-19, were waiting for a lucrative lunch, like two hungry lone wolves.

At 9:32, the French Far East Fleet under the command of Abel sailed into the sea area at 126.7 degrees east longitude and 31.8 degrees north latitude.

The observer of the battleship "Arc de Triomphe" suddenly shouted: "General, there are two huge airships in the sky outside!" ”

The back department does not hate Chaxing, and what he hates refers to hating Feng Zao

As if stung by a wasp, Abel's whole body shook rapidly, and he immediately asked the sailors to prepare machine guns to try to shoot at the two airships in the air at a long distance.

After Abel's order was given, dozens of heavy bombs were rained down in the air, although the hit rate of these bombs was not too high, but the first round of bombardment of these two ships still accurately sank a large French cruiser, seven cruisers caught fire on their decks, and the stern of the "Arc de Triomphe" was hit.

Abel immediately commanded the fleet to flee from the area covered by the bombardment of the airships, however, the two airships nevertheless hit two battleships of the French fleet, one was hit by the ammunition depot and sank into the water after exploding, and four more warships were hit by bombs and lost their ability to sail.

Abel knew very well that this was a war with an absolute imbalance of strength, and if it continued like this, it would be difficult for the French Far East Fleet to escape the fate of the entire army.

As a result, Abel reported to the French Navy Command on the situation of the naval battle in the East China Sea, and asked the Navy Command to send sea reinforcements to the East China Sea to support.

The command of the French Navy, after repeated considerations, rejected the request of Vice Admiral Abel of the Far Eastern Fleet to continue to insist on resistance.

The French naval command decided: order the Far East Fleet of the French army, stop resistance, and announce the surrender to the navy of the Chinese Empire!
