Indeed, at a distance of more than 2,000 meters, the first round of bombardment by the reinforcement fleet, the huge cannonball made a terrifying roar, and with a bang, the Chinese cruiser on the flank was directly broken into two sections.

"Good, good, good." In both English and French, the officers and men of the coalition army shouted loudly,

Peng Yulin immediately waved the flag on the flagship, and shouted: "Fire the trumpet gun, fire the torpedo." ”

The cannon exploded, and the movement on the flagship attracted the attention of other battleships, and soon, from the underwater parts of several battleships, something was sprayed, but unfortunately, the officers and men of the combined Anglo-French fleet did not know yet,

Finally, someone noticed that something was wrong, pointed it with his finger, and shouted loudly: "Look, what is that, what is that." ”

"What, what's, ah, yes, big fish."

"Not big fish."

Everyone looked at a lot of things, thin and thin, long, black and gray, rushing out from under the draft of the Chinese battleship, towards themselves,

In that way, even a sailor can know that it is not an ordinary fish, but a weapon.

But what is it, they don't know.

The Chinese Navy was the first to use torpedoes, moreover, as early as the battle for the mouth of the Yangtze River, the poor British, who claimed to be the number one naval power in the world, lagged too far behind,

The squadron also watched this thing break the waves in the sea, galloping,

"Okay, okay." This time, it was the turn of the Chinese officers and soldiers to be loud excited and cheered, they all knew the power of this thing, so they were sure that this new battle was won again.

Sure enough, during the few minutes of waiting, the combined Anglo-French fleet continued to bombard the Chinese fleet with large-caliber guns, achieving a brilliant victory, sinking two Chinese cruisers, damaging one battleship and causing a fire,

Why didn't the Chinese fleet release torpedoes at the beginning, that is, it suspected that the enemy had the rest of the fleet in ambush and could not be annihilated in one fell swoop.

Now it has been proved that the old naval powers such as Britain and France are still very good,

Now that you know it and pay the price, what are you waiting for,

Chinese battleships fired torpedoes one after another, and almost all battleships and heavy cruisers had torpedo launchers, and they also carried a lot of torpedoes, so that round after round of torpedo firing competition began.

Countless big fish, jumping up from under the surface of the sea, roaring, rushing towards the enemy, rushing and rushing, finally crashing into the enemy battleship, boom, boom, explosion,

The officers and men of the Anglo-French combined fleet almost had no awareness of guarding against torpedoes, and they didn't know how to get this thing at all, so they only watched in amazement, and some of the officers and men who were bombarding the Chinese warships also stopped fighting and stared at the strange thing on the sea.

Of course, during the battle, the people who were able to see the torpedoes on the sea surface intelligently and wisely were a minority after all, and more people were still busy fighting, and in the smoke of gunpowder, many people's vision was affected.

Admiral Baker was horrified in the violent shaking, "Something has happened. ”

"I don't know."

_"Check it out now. ”

The admiral's words soon turned out to be superfluous, because, as the facts became more and more evident here, more and more battleships were hit, they shook one after another, and violent explosions occurred on the edges of many battleships, moreover, not ordinary battleships, but giant ones,

Admiral Baker's battleship was hit by three torpedoes, a big hole was broken, and the rest of the new reinforcement fleet, the three giant battleships, suffered a lot of torpedoes, and the Chinese fleet was ruthless, and it would be dangerous if they didn't work hard, so they hit the torpedoes one by one as rifle bullets,

The current first giant ship with a displacement of 20,000 tons was bitten by five torpedoes, and all of them were hit, and immediately, such a huge guy became a huge fire, and the fire burned out, because two torpedoes hit the inside of this guy and detonated the ammunition depot.

How big was the ammunition depot of a giant battleship, and how much gunpowder and shells were in it,

Boom, boom, boom, a series of shells exploded, triggering an unprecedented explosion that stunned the people around them,

Boom, the last big explosion, the entire battleship, with a displacement of 20,000 tons, was blown into two sections,

It's terrifying, who would have thought that the 20,000-ton giant is almost an unsinkable battleship,

If the British and French knew that in a few decades, the 70,000-ton displacement of the battleships Yamato and Musashi of the Wa Kingdom would also be sunk, it is estimated that they would scare the little soul.

The Chinese battleships, basically no longer bombarded, all used torpedoes, fired desperately, and as a result, in just ten minutes, all the torpedoes they carried were fired,

The two British fleets were hit hard, especially the huge tonnage reinforcement fleet, and the three super giant ships were all beaten into big fireballs, braving scorching waves on the ocean, roasting the British officers and soldiers on the fleet into human meat skewers.

Boom, another battleship exploded, breaking in two,

The reinforcement fleet, the hope and pride of the British French, was quickly crushed in the midst of a very dismal encounter, bursts of explosions, bursts of fire, thick smoke, eight battleships, more than a dozen cruisers, all paralyzed,

Admiral Baker was stunned, and for a long time, with tears in his eyes, he gave the order to the fleet: "Retreat, retreat." ”

Is it interesting to retreat, of course it is interesting, the British and French fleets saw that the flag of retreat was issued on the flagship, and immediately retreated to the west, wanting to get rid of the attack of the Chinese fleet,

However, it was true that the Chinese Peng Yulin fleet did not attack again, and did not make any catch-up actions, so that the fleet of the British and French forces was able to quickly get rid of the entanglement, leaving a distance of more than 4,000 meters, and basically, it was not within the range of artillery shells.

The officers and soldiers of both countries are in deep grief and cannot confirm why this is.

I was depressed and even crying, when suddenly, someone heard a strange voice: "Well, what is that?" ”

There was a huge figure roaring from the top of the Chinese reinforcement fleet, and then, many huge seabirds flew up,

Seabirds, indeed seabirds, they are flying high and coming here,

"What the hell is that?" Many people ask, purely subconsciously,

"Who knows."

No one knows that this is China's new naval combat weapon, the sea plane,

New invention, new development, the first batch of sixty fighters, flying at a height of only more than 200 meters, and it is the original kind of clumsy aircraft with two wings, but Luo Yang has already used it in the navy, and the reinforcement fleet led by Zuo Zongtang is the outrageous aircraft carrier formation in the future.

Ten big stupid ships, carrying sixty warplanes on them, this kind of warplane, because the speed is very slow, so the danger of landing and taking off is much lower, it is very easy, these platform ships, are all merchant ships for transformation, of course it doesn't look very strong, but, after all, this is the strongest warship in the world,

Sixty fighters, during training, eight have been broken, after replenishment, it is still sixty, and now, one after another, took off from the platform,

Unfortunately, only fifty-five of them were able to fly safely, three broke down, and two fell into the sea and became floating boats.
