readx; On the south side of the Tsushima Strait, 30 degrees north latitude and 133 degrees east longitude, the main battle formation of the Hainan Fleet has been lined up in a horizontal line, and a decisive battle formation with the Japanese combined fleet has begun. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Le "Wen" novel Chen Zhong ordered that the Hainan fleet was ready for battle.

The Hainan Fleet's first battle group includes the "Zhennan Ship" (flagship 7,800-ton armored ship), the "Goshawk Ship", the "Taishan Ship" (a 3,240-ton cruiser), the "Tiger Ship", the "Longxiang Ship", the "Overlord Ship", the "Yangtze River Ship", the "Yellow River Ship", and the "Fengyun Ship".

On the right side of the first ship formation are the Hainan Fleet's mobile attack battle formations: the "Shichang", "Hurricane" (a 7,800-ton armored ship), the "Qingyun", "Five-Star Ship", "Montenegro", and "Guan Gong".

At a distance of 5,500 meters behind the first battle group and the mobile attack battle group, there is the second battle group of the Hainan Fleet, the "Hainan Ship" (a 7,567-ton armored ship), the "Zifeng Ship", the "Lingyun Ship", the "Cheetah Ship" (a 3,240-ton cruiser), the "Taihang Ship", the "Qingfeng Ship", the "Ship", the "Huangshan Ship", and the "Nanling Ship".

Heihachiro Togo looked through his binoculars at the horizontal formation of the Hainan Fleet in front of him, and he ordered the entire fleet to rush towards the formation of the Hainan Fleet at full speed.

The Mikasa battleships of the Japanese Combined Fleet bore the brunt of the attack, like a raging bull, rushing towards the Hainan Fleet, and the battleships behind them rushed through the churning waves and followed closely behind. On the rough sea, the entire Japanese combined fleet, like a roaring monster, slaughtered the Hainan fleet.

The Mikasa ship, which rushed to the front, was the flagship of the Japanese army and the seat of Heihachiro Togo.

The Mikasa of the Japanese Combined Fleet was one of the most advanced battleships in the world. Its armor used Krupp steel armor plates, which had the highest level of defense in the world at that time. Equipped with the latest radio equipment.

Reference displacement of the ship: 15140 tons; Length: 1317 m; Width: 232 m; Water: 132 m;

Engine type: 2 reciprocating steam engines, engine output: 15,000 hp, maximum speed: 18 knots, cruising range: 7,000 knots (10 knots)

The hull waterline armor belt of the ship is 100-230mm, the deck is 50-75mm, the turret is 200-360mm, and the command tower is 75-360mm. The crew of the ship is 860 people.

Mikasa was armed with 4 2-twin 305-mm main guns, 14 single-mounted 152-cm secondary guns, 20 single-mounted 76-cm guns, 16-mounted 47-mm guns, and 4 45-cm torpedo tubes.

It is the most advanced giant battleship in the world today, and the overall equipment of the Japanese fleet is much higher than that of the Hainan fleet.

Faced with such a situation, Heihachiro Togo was really a little disdainful, such a powerful Russian fleet was defeated by them in a very short period of time, not to mention, this tonnage was much lower than his own Hainan fleet.

Dongxiang was going to use the speed of their warships to attack the formation of the Hainan fleet, and in his opinion, this time the luck was even better than before, because it was hardly a level of battle.

Togo Heihachiro ignored one point, although their fleet is strong, but the soldiers of their fleet have been fighting fierce battles for nearly three days, the reason for their victory over the Russian army is the speed of the ships, the second is to wait for work, the third is that the hit rate of the artillery is extremely high, almost 100 shots, the fourth is that the officers and soldiers of the ships attach great importance to it, and the fifth is that their luck is indeed too good.

This time, when the order to rescue Tokyo was received, the fleet was still cleaning up the battlefield, and most of the officers and men had not slept for almost three days due to nervousness or excitement, and in addition, they really disdained the Hainan fleet.

Because, in the First Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese fleet once defeated the Beiyang Naval Division, known as the first in Asia, without any suspense.

Although the Hainan Fleet defeated the West Sea Fleet last year, they know very well that the equipment of the West Sea Fleet is all old goods from 10 years ago, and there is a reason for its defeat.

Even if the equipment of the Hainan Fleet has increased, there is still a certain gap compared with the current Japanese Combined Fleet.

In fact, the Japanese intelligence system did not learn that there were two other battleships of 20,000 tonnage in the Hainan Fleet, which Chen Zhong commissioned from a German shipyard to customize for the Hainan Fleet through the personal relationship of the boss of the German Krupp Company. Its performance and power far surpassed several giant battleships of the Japanese Combined Fleet, and they were the "Aomine" and "ships" that were arranged in the second battle group.

The reason why they were hidden in the second battle group was to confuse the Japanese flagship, who mistakenly believed that it was so easy to break through the defense line of the Hainan fleet.

After the Japanese broke through the first battle group, the Japanese thought that their strategic plan had been successfully implemented, and at this time, the second battle group of the Hainan fleet majestically occupied the horizontal head of the T-type ship formation, so that the dense artillery fire of the second battle group was enough to make the Japanese fleet, which had been divided into several sections, become their target.

The Japanese fleet would be completely caught in the front and rear of the Hainan Fleet, and it would be an impossible task until the first few Japanese battleships tried to break through the second battle group composed of several giant battleships of the Hainan Fleet.

Chen Zhong started designing this formation a few months ago. At that time, the German shipyard had already sent the ship to Hainan, which was a military secret.

Because Chen Zhong ordered these two warships with a huge sum of money that the German shipbuilders did not dare to imagine, and built these two giant warships, they promised Chen Zhong that they would not disclose this news to the public, and all the personnel training was carefully selected by Chen Zhong and Chen Fangzheng and sent to Germany for closed training, therefore, this matter, even the other captains of the Hainan Fleet did not know what was going on, so when the outside world inquired about the data of the Hainan Fleet, they could not find the information of these two battleships at all.

The Hainan Fleet hid its true strength from the outside world, and only Chen Zhong and Chen Fangzheng Xu Chunsheng knew about this matter, and this battle plan was also the result of Chen Zhong planning with them for nearly three months.

In other words, the Hainan Fleet has been training for nearly three months for such a ship formation, but the other captains don't understand the mystery. This is a tactic designed by Chen Zhong, and he wants to take the Japanese army by surprise in this battle.

Mayuki Akiyama from the Japanese ship came to Heihachiro Togo's side, and he seemed to want to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

Heihachiro Togo looked at Mayuki Akiyama, who was in a trance, and said, "Akiyama Nakasa, what's wrong with you?" ”

Akiyama Mayuki looked at the Mikasa ship rushing under his feet, he seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, so he said in a daze: "General, I always feel that there is a feeling that I am not very steady, and it seems that something is wrong." ”

Heihachiro Togo frowned and said, "Really? Akiyama Nakasa, maybe you're too tired. Don't think about it so much, the battle is about to begin. ”
