"Rush up for me, entangle little Japan, don't let these brutes go back this time" Yan Fu yelled loudly

The chaos of command was clear at a glance, and all ships were a little confused, but fortunately, this chaos was only temporary, and when Deng Shichang took the initiative to lower the command flag on the flagship, there was only one commander on the battlefield

The four ironclad ships "Zhenyuan", "Dingyuan", "Jiyuan", and "Weiyuan", together with the two battleships "Daqing No. 1" and "Daqing No. 2", rushed towards the Japanese fleet that was slowly retreating like six giants

Relying on the strong defensive power of its own warships, it desperately wanted to disrupt the formation of the Japanese fleet, so as to break it one by one

"Boom ......"

The "Dingyuan" ironclad ship was bombarded by a 420mm main gun in the advance, although the distance was far away and the "Dingyuan" itself had strong defense, but it did not cause a devastating blow, but it gave a warning to all the Qing warships, if they got closer, they might be directly penetrated their own warships

However, all the warships, including the three "Laiyuan", "Jingyuan", and "Zhiyuan", flew close to the Japanese fleet, and the "Chengfeng," "Flying Eagle," and "Sea Lion," which had already detoured to the rear of the Japanese fleet, relied on their own degrees to attack the Japanese fleet's secondary guns in places beyond the reach of the Japanese fleet's main guns

For a time, a huge circle was formed on the sea with the five Japanese warships as the center, and the warships of the Qing Dynasty formed an encirclement outside and besieged the Japanese fleet in the middle

The encirclement is getting smaller and smaller, and the shells are firing faster and faster

After paying the price of "Daqing No. 1" and "Dingyuan" seriously injured and leaving the field, the "Yamato" was finally hit and ignited a fire, and the only drawback of the Japanese fleet's tic-tac-toe formation was that no warship could leave the field with a hand injury, because no matter which warship left the field, there would be a lack of main guns in both directions. Then the capital ships of the Qing Dynasty destroyed them one by one

But now that the injuries of "Yamato" have been formed, it seems that it is no longer possible to withdraw from the battle

In the encirclement of the Qing fleet, it was not possible even if he wanted to withdraw from the battle

The same 420mm main gun of the "Daqing No. 2" sprinkled a handful of salt on the wound of the "Yamato".

"Boom ......"

The huge battleship tilted to the right, and it was evident that the right side of the deck had been broken, and the sea was pouring into it frantically

"Give up resistance and surrender immediately, I guarantee the safety of your lives" Changsheng raised the flag

"Boom ......"

A shell flew over the "Changsheng" and exploded about 300 meters behind, setting off a huge column of water

"Damn, little Japan's bones are quite hard, it's a pity that those battleships" Yan Fu looked at the Japanese battleships opposite with glowing eyes

"General, give the order to bomb the damn," the communications soldier said anxiously

"Let, the three ships of Zhen, Wei and Ji will cooperate with the Daqing No. 1 to break in from the front, and let the three ships of Chengfeng, Sea Lion, and Flying Eagle break through from the direction where the opponent has no main guns, and completely divide them, and the three ships of Jing, Lai, and Zhi will rush in together with the flagship to kill the Japanese ironclad ship" Yan Fu instantly arranged the next step of tactics

"Yes," the communications soldier hurried away

After the Japanese fleet lost its sharpest cruisers, it did not have the previous changeable tactics, and the main battleships were completely huge batteries without other cover and containment, although their own powerful attack power made the Qing fleet unable to get close, and relied on solid defense to maintain the myth of standing tall and standing with hundreds of shells

However, over time, this myth will always be shattered......

Because although the battleship "Musashi" was not bombed at close range, it was hit by the three cruisers of the Qing Dynasty at a long distance and more than 200 shells, although the warship itself did not suffer too fatal wounds, but the soldiers on the warship had been blown up by the bombs, and there were few left

Especially artillery, a warship without artillery is equivalent to a warship without artillery, which is really terrifying, and on the sea, this huge battleship has been "dumb fire" for a long time

"Musashi, what's the situation? Why don't you fire back fire?" the flag soldiers of the Kyushu issued a flag of inquiry

"There were too many casualties among the artillery of our ship, and there were small fires and water leaks in many places on the hull, so the artillery went to put out the fire first," Musashi's flag soldier replied truthfully

Perhaps the Japanese have never understood that the best defense is actually attack

When the four main warships of the Qing Dynasty finally penetrated the Japanese fleet, a close artillery battle began

Just like two people with sniper rifles meeting at a distance of less than 50 meters, the comparison is no longer about accurate aiming, no longer the speed of shooting, and all the things that are usually trained may not be used, or they are used less

Now what is compared is courage, courage, and the momentum of courage

At this point, both sides have a first-class level, and whoever hits it at such a close distance will be fatal and devastating......

"Boom ......" "Boom ......"

The "Yamato", which was in flames, slowly sank into the sea, and after being hit by two shells in a row from the "Zhenyuan", it finally ended its life, which may be unfair to the warship itself, and the "Daqing No. 1", also from the British Armstrong shipyard, is still standing on the sea

The reincarnation of warships is also an art, and it is in the hands of the Japanese, and it is only a matter of time before the soul returns to the sea

"Yamato" seemed to be unwilling to leave this wonderful world, and when the entire warship was submerged in the sea, the main gun in the bow of the ship swayed and twisted from side to side a few times

Immediately after that, the three cruisers "Chengfeng", "Sea Lion", and "Flying Eagle" suddenly attacked from the direction of the original "Yamato" main gun defense, and carried out a series of uninterrupted bombardments on the dumb "Musashi" at close range

In particular, the 16 140mm cannon guns of the "Chengfeng" continuously fired shells, so that the "Musashi", which had already formed a small local fire, instantly turned into an uncontrollable fire

Although it may not be possible to sink the "Musashi" in a short period of time, judging from the current situation, if the entire fleet is wiped out, it is only a matter of time, and the dilapidated ironclad ship "Hiei" has also been beaten by the "Nagatsu" and thick black smoke has been emitted, and it is possible that a fire broke out in a certain place in the cabin, but the size of the fire cannot be seen clearly from the outside

On the front, the four capital ships "Daqing No. 1", "Zhenyuan", "Weiyuan", and "Jiyuan" besieged "Kyushu" and "Katsuragi", so that the two battleships could not turn back to rescue them when they saw that "Musashi" was being bullied by three cruisers

It is also a sad that two countries that have just developed their naval careers have fought a war that must be fought for their own national fortunes, and the losing side may not be able to get back on its feet for a long time afterward

"Boom ......"

There was a huge explosion on the hull of the "Hiei" itself, and through the binoculars, I saw that it was a group of Japanese soldiers who saw that the fire was uncontrollable and that it was only a matter of time before it was sunk, so they themselves detonated a shell and sank into the sea with the warship......
