At the front of the British fleet was advancing in a triangle were three battleships, all of which were built in 1883 and launched in 1885. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

These three battleships were numbered "Tyson" I, "Tyson" II and "Tyson" III, and the battleship "Tyson" was advanced because of its continuous sailing and draft ability. The battleship "Tyson" has a total of three 205 mm howitzers, which are also very destructive, as well as six 198 mm secondary guns, and the second floor is also equipped with 40 166 mm howitzers.

With a rate of fire of about 685 meters per second and an initial speed of up to 706 meters per second, the battleship "Tyson" is a veritable "killer" at sea. The battleship "Tyson" is one of the favorite battleships of many British generals, and this kind of battleship is refreshing in terms of performance and purpose.

At this time, the fleet led by Frye had a total of five "Tyson" battleships, and these three "Tyson" battleships were at the forefront, which could completely give the enemy a kind of pressure on the momentum.

In addition, next to each battleship "Tyson", there were two ironclads and one cruiser hugging each other, and if one side was attacked, the other ships would immediately enter the state and return fire.

The commander of the Tyson I was a colonel, who was the captain of the Tyson I and was responsible for the command of the Tyson I, and he had to obey the command of Frye of the battleship Lunge.

At this time, the commander of the "Tyson" No. 1 was also extremely excited, and when he saw it, he finally saw Hong Kong, and he once again came to Hong Kong in the East. No one can understand this moment, the mood of this captain, excitement, excitement, joy and other various emotions are full of this captain at this time.

The thought of being able to use Hong Kong to obtain the wealth of many parts of China, especially the use of opium to defraud them of so much real money, is a pleasant, exciting and fulfilling thing to think about.

At this time, all the officers and men of Tan Sitong's 101st Regiment were all in place, ready to accept orders from their superiors at any time, and began to attack the enemy's fleet.

Of course, Li Xiang's fleet was all ready, Li Xiang had ordered all the ships to start sailing, and they were also quietly waiting for Li Zhongju's order.

The soldiers of the British fleet saw the mainland of Hong Kong, and Li Zhongju and the others also saw that the British fleet was coming towards Hong Kong like a whirlwind.

Li Zhongju and the others did not panic, on the contrary, they were all eager to try, they wanted to prove to the British navy with their own strength that Huaxia was not a place where the British army could go wild.

Finally, the British army was less than three kilometers away from Hong Kong, and Li Zhongju decisively ordered the 101st Regiment to start shelling. Tan Sitong conveyed the commander's order to the officers and men of the regiment with great excitement.

All the soldiers of the 101st Regiment were ready half an hour earlier, and at this time, they were all quietly waiting for the order to shoot.

"Shooting begins." With Tan Si's same order, all the officers and men of the 101st Regiment immediately began to prepare for shooting.

Then, hundreds of shells whizzed towards the British fleet. The power of the shells fired by hundreds of heavy artillery shells is very high.

Commander Tyson 1 saw hundreds of bright things flying towards his battleship in front of him, and with his past experience, he immediately judged that it was the artillery of the Zhina.

However, when the people of China actually built such a powerful fort in Hong Kong, which was much stronger than the cannonballs fired by the forts of Lin Zexu and Zuo Zongtang, the captain of the "Tyson" No. 1 immediately realized that something was wrong, and he immediately ordered the battleship to deflect slightly to the right, and at the same time he immediately passed the news to the Frye army.

Frye was sitting in the command room at this time, watching the beautiful women dance, Frye was this hobby, as long as he was fine, he liked to enjoy dancing. When he gets excited, he will happily dance with these British beauties.

At this time, Frye was most happy, because he was about to arrive in Hong Kong, and he wanted to finally enjoy the dance on the battleship, so he was getting carried away and dancing with the beautiful women.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and the person who could push it open, or dared to push the door open, was none other than Gesen, and the rest of the people were not qualified. Gerson looked at General Frye, who was in extreme excitement, and sighed in his heart, but he still admired General Frye's ability.

Frye immediately stopped dancing, but he was very angry inside, just imagine what it is like for a person to be doing what he thinks is most meaningful, and he has done it to the extreme, and suddenly someone interrupts him.

At this time, Frye had the urge to strangle Gerson.

Gerson looked at Frye's red eyes and knew that something was wrong, so he immediately shouted loudly, "General, according to the feedback from 'Tyson' No. 1, it is said that the people of China have built a very powerful fort in Hong Kong, and at the same time, 'Tyson' No. 2 and No. 3 have also sent the same message. General, what are we supposed to do? ”

Frye immediately came to his senses, and at the same time took a cup of coffee on the table, drank it all, and said loudly, "Order the whole army to stop advancing, and the four battleships of the 'Annie' are moving forward, and at the same time send fifteen ironclad ships to assist, and break through the enemy's batteries in one fell swoop." In the end, I want to see if the enemy's batteries are strong, or our battleships are strong. ”

Anyone who understands knows that a dead battery is no match for a moving and powerful fleet. Of course, Li Zhongju also knew, and Gesen also knew, but Gesen did not have the power to directly command the fleet, and could only execute it through Fry, and of course Gesen's ability was not as good as Fry's.

As Gerson conveyed according to Frye's order, the entire British fleet began to operate, and the four battleships "Annie" next to the battleship "Lunge" immediately accelerated and moved forward.

At the same time, fifteen ironclad ships were moving towards the battleship "Tyson" in front.

The other ships slowed down, and eventually they all stopped moving forward, waiting for Fryde's next order.

All the British soldiers who got the news, they began to guess, after all, just now and even now the Chinese side is still frantically shooting cannonballs, judging from the speed and number of cannonballs, the artillery battery built by this Chinese is very powerful, and it can actually stop their fleet from continuing to sail.

However, the British soldiers were not worried at all, because they understood that their generals and the battleships in front of them would solve everything. (To be continued.) )
