Now there is still no question of whether it will be, but the battleship of the Red Navy of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is coming straight to the starboard side of the "Sima Pirate".

At a time when the mediation fleets of the United States and France were making goodwill exhortations to His Excellency Barushka, commander of the Weihai Garrison of Tsarist Russia and commander of the Third Fleet of the Tsarist Dispatch Force stationed in China, who had been crying out for wrongs, he was offering goodwill advice on the fact that the Tsarist fleet was always provoking the Red Navy of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and hurting the overall situation of China's north-south peace talks. None of them expected that at this time, the main fleet of the Red Navy led by Xu Zongyang had already left Haiyang and started a peculiar "sea trip" with the torpedo boat assault group that had just withdrawn from the pre-ambush area.

The sixteen warships in the main formation of the Red Navy, according to the pre-preparations, turned into tugboats in an instant. In their tail, sixteen torpedo boats of the Shanghai Assault Brigade were towed. After that, under the escort of seven other warships headed by the "Humen", the fleet first sailed more than 100 nautical miles to the east, and then turned northwest. During the day, the Red Navy's fixed ship group kept a course about seventy or eighty nautical miles from the coastline and headed toward Liugong Island.

At dusk, the entire formation of the Red Navy arrived at the ocean less than 50 nautical miles east-north-east of Jiming Island. After a short period of preparation, the "Zhenhai" led three other warships directly southward, while the main fleet continued to tow the torpedo boat group westward.

The two Red Navy warships that have come over now are the "Zhenhai" and "Yangzhou". According to the information obtained by the Red Navy, although it has been learned that the main forces of the Tsarist Third Fleet are concentrated in Weihaiwei, no one can rule out that there will be scattered Tsarist Russian ships wandering in the coastal waters from Liugong Island to Rongcheng. One of the purposes of the "Zhenhai" trip is to capture those lonely "night wandering gods".

Before the captain of the "Sima Pirates" raised his binoculars, Lu Tianning had already set his eyes on them. In order not to scare away the Russian warships that might be encountered, Lu Tianning arranged the other two warships in his formation to follow closely behind two nautical miles, and he just walked in front with the "Yangzhou". However, when he saw that there was not a trace of wind on the sea soon after, he felt that it seemed a little redundant for him to do so. In such good weather, as long as you run into any Tsarist Russian warship, you can't run away.

"Signal, open the meal!" In the telescope lens in Lu Tianning's hand, the captain of the "Sima Pirate" who was also holding the telescope happened to appear. With a smug smile on his face, he gave orders leisurely. With the red light of the main gun muzzle in front of the "Zhenhai", which slowed down, a huge roar suddenly shattered the original tranquility of the sea.

At the same time, the speed of the "Yangzhou" that followed behind did not slow, and it quickly surpassed the "Zhenhai", which had already begun to turn the rudder to the right, and all the port guns went straight to the "Sima Corsair", and the red light was everywhere, and the sound of cannons shook the sky.

All the officers and men of the motionless "Sima Corsair" did not have time to make any resistance, and in the midst of this overwhelming artillery fire, first a large fire was ignited, and then the ammunition compartment was blown up, and in the rumbling explosion, it skewed towards the sea......

When the two warships behind converged with the "Zhenhai" and "Yangzhou" that were slowly moving forward, all they saw was the swarthy bottom of the "Sima Pirate" that was like a whale's back on the sea, and the moment before it was swallowed by the sea.

At ten o'clock, Weihaiwei and Liugongdao, who could not hear the roar of artillery fire in the direction of Jiming Island, were once again awakened by the rumbling sound of artillery after only a few hours of silence.

First, the batteries on the south bank were the first to speak, and the artillery regiment of the Red First Army joined the chorus.

The artillery regiment of the Red First Army, which had already moved from the south bank of Motianling to the northwest of Fenglinji, and was only more than two miles away from Xianguding, only spent a few minutes of artillery fire on Xianguding, and then made another short and ferocious attack on Naigu Mountain. Subsequently, he turned to the fierce artillery fire and smashed into the other two natural barriers in the south of the Weihai Acropolis, from the beginning of the battle to the present, the Red Army of the Celestial Empire has not touched the Tashan and the Golden Line Peak.

"There was no sign of any advance." This was the psychological feeling of the Tsarist second lieutenant who ran down and surrendered on the top of the fairy aunt at that time, "Everyone knows that their cannon is not good, but the hand cannon is powerful." Therefore, everyone kept their eyes fixed on the Red Army halfway up the hill, for fear that they would come up. How could I have thought that this time it was all real shells! I bet it was the most ferocious and accurate shelling I've ever seen in my life, and I don't know how many times more ferocious than the artillery fire we fired here, covering the entire hill at once. We stayed on this bare mountain, and we were like a bunch of live targets, and there was nowhere to hide. It was only then that I finally understood why they had to give up this evil fairy girl. They deliberately left such a trap in order to destroy our living force. The attack on the top of the immortal was dead and wounded enough to gather a battalion of men and horses, and now it was only a brief moment, and a squadron was no longer there. I was swept away from the top of the hill by the air of the first row of guns, and I was so dizzy that I survived. God still took care of me, and I rolled down the hill in the direction of the Red Army, of course, the weapon in my hand did not know where it flew. It was the subsequent assault horns and shouts of the Red Army that woke me up from my fainting, and it was related to being trampled on my body several times, hehe, my ribs were broken twice. Still, it's better than losing your life. I am grateful to the Red Army who carried me down the mountain, but unfortunately, I never knew his name. Alas, if I had known that there was today, I should have learned Chinese hard. ”

If they want to, the Red Army can keep it until old age, but Tsarist Russia cannot. The crux of the matter is not entirely the severity of the artillery, but the tactics. When the dense artillery fire of Tsarist Russia plowed over and over again the Red Army's defensive Xiangu, only a platoon of Red Army defensive soldiers had already taken refuge on the back side of the mountain. Only when the Russian artillery fire is extended or stopped, will the Red Army rush back to their positions and use the grenades and bullets they are good at to consume the Russian soldiers who have struggled to climb the mountain. It's such a simple tactic, and the poor Tsarist soldiers have pig brains one by one, and they can't think of it, who do you blame for this.

Therefore, after the artillery regiment bombarded Xianguding, the officers and men of the 1st Red Division ran up happily with the military horn and shouting slogans. However, this time they did not come to defend against the Immortal Gu Peak, but then swooped down the mountain and rushed towards Tashan. At the foot of Tower Hill, there is a group of Tsarist artillery that had caused trouble for them all day during the day.

Soon after two flames began to ignite at the Immortal Gu Mountain, two red flames also rose from Naigu Mountain, announcing that Naigu Mountain had been recovered. The Tsarist Russians on Naigu Mountain are obviously not much smarter than the Tsarist Russians on the top of Xiangu, and under the bombardment of the Red Army's powerful howitzers and mountain artillery, only a handful can survive.

In the headquarters of the Tsarist Russian garrison on the Weihai Acropolis, only half an hour after the sound of artillery fired, Barushka and Dasamov felt that they were heading for a terrible abyss. The Taiping Red Army not only instantly recaptured Naigu Mountain and Xiangu Ding, which they had worked so hard to get their hands on, but also launched a fierce attack on Tashan, which was close at hand, and not only hit the city of Weihaiwei from the south and west with dense artillery fire at the same time, but the most fatal thing was that the Taiping Red Army also rained artillery fire on the North Mountain in the north of the city.
