When the battleship squadron had eliminated all the destroyers, the siege of the last three warships began.

At this time, Chen Shaokuan, who was standing on the bridge of the ship, looked happy, and he was already in control of the victory at this time. Looking back, following the ** ships flying neutral flags in the rear, Chen Shaokuan showed a meaningful smile.

At this time, the residents on both sides of the strait could faintly see the fleet battle on the sea, and the roar of naval guns could be heard in the distance. The warships in the southwest were on their debut for the first time, and when they saw the warships dueling, they thought that the warships of other countries were fighting on their own seashores, and they would not have thought that one of them was their own country's fleet.

Ten minutes later, the two aircraft carriers were hit several times by the guns of the provincial cruisers, and the speed also slowed down, and the Japanese troops on the ships were doing their best to extinguish the fire caused by the explosion. Hasegawa Kiyoshi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and came to the conning tower. At this time, Shirakawa Yoshinori was also inside, and after Hasegawa Kiyoshi came in, he saw that the faces of the people inside were not very good, if it was according to the past, Hasegawa Kiyoshi thought of how to improve the morale of the officers and soldiers, and now he can't take care of this.

"Send a farewell message to the base camp: When our Third Fleet was protecting the Shanghai Dispatch Army, it encountered the siege of the Shina Fleet, and now that only the Izumo is left in our fleet to have combat effectiveness, I have decided to lead the Izumo to launch a decisive attack on the Shina Fleet, and make a desperate bet to break my bones to repay the emperor's kindness. After reading the telegram, Hasegawa Kiyoshi said, "Now is the time for us to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, and now I give the order to launch a decisive attack on the Shina fleet. ”

Perhaps having made up their minds, Hasegawa Kiyoshi and all the crew felt that the pressure of facing death just now was much less.

Soon the Izumo turned around, and directly with a full right rudder, the entire warship threw out a large splash, and placed horizontally in the pursuing battleship detachment.

Shirakawa Yoshinori calmly left the conning tower and came to his rest cabin. He took out a short knife from the drawer, knelt on the ground, unsheathed the short knife, and took out a white cloth to gently wipe the blade. Take off your shirt and hold the handle of the short knife tightly with both hands with the edge facing inward. shouted: "Long live His Majesty the Emperor", the short knife was plunged directly into the stomach, and he endured the severe pain, and slashed horizontally and vertically twice.

Yoshinori Shirakawa is one step faster than Kiyoshi Hasegawa.

Regarding Izumo's move, Chen Shaokuan quickly responded. The six naval guns in front of the bridge of the two battleships let out an angry roar, Chen Shaokuan did not want to sink the Izumo and the two aircraft carriers before, but now that the other party is determined to resist, there is nothing to say.

The Izumo also fired shells like a detachment, but they were all far away.

And the counterattack of the battleship was fatal for the Izumo, and the two-way shells fell directly on the Izumo. One shot landed on the bridge, and in an instant, the entire bridge was completely destroyed with an explosion. One shot landed on the bow of the ship, blowing off the bow of the Izumo directly.

The Akaisei and Kaga soon followed in the Izumo footsteps.

The end of the Third Fleet was doomed when they left Sasebo, and Chen Shao swore the strength of his navy with the destruction of the Japanese Third Fleet.

——————————————

Ten minutes later, at the base camp in Japan.

At this time, the base camp was very quiet, and even the breathing could be heard. Hasegawa Kiyoshi's farewell telegram was placed in front of Hirohito's bed, along with a copy of the warship's information. Hirohito's face was calm and unwavering. None of the people in Tanaka Yoshiichi knew what the emperor was thinking at this time? At this time, they didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere.

"I wonder, is it a mistake for us to start a war in China?" For a long time, Hirohito's words rang in everyone's ears.

"Your Majesty, it's just that we're not ready." Yoshiichi Tanaka gritted his teeth and stood up and said.

"We can be considered a failure now, and when we are ready, Shina is ready. We can't win now, can we win then? Hirohito was still expressionless at this time.

Yoshiichi Tanaka also had nothing to say at this time, and he didn't know how to answer this question. He proposed the war against flowers, and now he is also responsible for this defeat.

Seeing that no one answered, Hirohito said: "There are many problems exposed by this battle that require us to think deeply, and the intelligence department is the most responsible. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing that the other side will not be defeated in a hundred battles, we have not even figured out the situation in China, and the Third Fleet has been unjustly defeated. ”

"Hey!"

Hearing Hirohito's words, everyone stood up and lowered their heads.

"Your Majesty, do you want to call back the support fleet sent to Shanghai?" The Admiral said with his head down.

"Can you guarantee that the Nagato-class battleships can beat the battleships of Shina?" Hirohito didn't answer directly, but asked in reverse.

"This, this—" The Admiralty Secretary didn't know what to do now.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, we must prepare for the Chinese fleet to attack our homeland, and our subordinates believe that now is not the time to disperse our forces by recalling the support fleet." Yoshiichi Tanaka said.

"What about the dispatch of troops from Shanghai? Now Shina will attack at any time! Hirohito asked, looking at Yoshiichi Tanaka.

"Tell them to break through to our concession, and when they reach the concession branch, they will not dare to open fire, and defend Hongkou to protect the vitality of the Shanghai dispatch army."

Hirohito nodded, agreeing with Tanaka's decision.

——————————————————

After the battleship detachment sent all the Third Fleet to the sea, it sailed towards Baoshan, and now it was time to pick the fruits of victory.

By the time the Third Fleet had left, the Second Front had already surrounded the Shanghai Dispatch Army in its own fortifications. It was a hill by the sea, and it was now used by the Japanese army for easy defense.

When the fleet left, the lands did not yet know what was happening, and when the two fleets exchanged fire, they all understood. China also has a fleet, and it is now chasing the imperial fleet, and the army officers standing on the hill can see the powerful firepower of the Kunlunshan-class battleships through binoculars, and their hearts sink with the sound of the cannons. Although the two fleets soon disappeared from the sea, the shadow still hung over their heads. It's an indisputable fact that your own fleet is running away, so what about yourself and others?

Fortunately, soon after, Shirakawa Yoshinori sent a telegram, telling them to guard the beachhead and wait for the next order.

With Shirakawa Yoshinori's order, these officers were also a little relieved, at least for now, they couldn't see the specific winners or losers, because the Third Fleet still had the most powerful aircraft carriers in the empire.

The Second Front did not attack immediately, and the people and reporters who came to watch from afar had to look forward to it.

By the time the battleship detachment returned to Baoshan, the four warships that had been separated had already blocked the troop carriers and did not dare to move. After the merging with the detachment, under the powerful deterrent power of the battleship detachment, those troop carriers put up white flags one after another, and those troop carriers were only some civilian ships that had been called, and they did not dare to resist in the face of warships.

At this time, the Shanghai dispatch force on land had already seen the warships on the sea, and in their eyes, those warships were in a formation for artillery bombardment. Several division commanders quarreled at the headquarters of the city, on the one hand, under the deterrence of the powerful firepower of the People's Army, and on the other hand, the base camp told them to break through to Hongkou in Shanghai. But in the current situation, where do they dare to move and run on the flat ground, it is not that they will die faster.

Several people discussed and discussed, and finally decided to break through in batches by several roads, and as many as they could run, they would just wait for death if they stayed here.

But as soon as they had negotiated, the KPA attacked.

Two battleships, four cruisers, four destroyers, eight hundred heavy guns, one squadron of H-1.

The hill where more than 80,000 Japanese troops were located was completely peared, and the shelling lasted for half an hour.

Without solid reinforced concrete fortifications, in the face of such shelling, it was a complete disaster.

The crowd watching from afar, whether it was reporters or the public, as well as the ambassadors and military attaches of the countries who had been invited, were deeply shocked. Since the development of artillery, except for the First World War, it is the first time that such a fierce cannon sound has been heard on the Asian continent. They have reason to believe that if they get closer, their ears will be deafened.

Many foreigners could not help but feel sad for the Japanese troops who were surrounded on the mountain, and they did not know how many people would survive under such firepower, and even if they did, they would probably be going crazy.

On a high hill closer to the battlefield, a dozen people were fiddling with three strange instruments, and one of them, a middle-aged man with a peaked cap, was still shouting something. This team is the camera team of Longteng Group Film Company, which came here to extract war footage. This kind of picture is really shocking, and it is definitely not something that can be achieved by making or imitating it.

After half an hour of shelling, nearly 200 tanks of the tank unit surrounding the hill began to rush up the hill, but fortunately the hill was not too steep, and the medium tanks could barely climb it. Just as the troops were halfway up the mountain, there were sporadic counterattacks from the Japanese positions, but they were quickly drowned out by the strong pace of attack.

Although after half an hour of heavy shelling, there were still some powerful naval guns, but many Japanese troops survived. However, many of them were wounded, and the Second Front, which had no pity for the wounded, did not stop at all. The entire battlefield was filled with the screams and wails of the Japanese soldiers, the wounded Japanese soldiers rolling on the ground because of the pain, and the powerful offensive edge of the tanks, the mentally weak Japanese troops began to surrender. Subsequently, more and more Japanese troops joined the ranks of surrender. By this time, they had lost the heart of resistance, and the powerful artillery fire had severely rubbed their so-called bushido spirit.

For the Japanese troops who surrendered on their own initiative, the soldiers of the KPA were also happy to accept them. It's just that the wounded soldiers who rolled on the ground did not have such treatment. With the help of the People's Army, they soon got rid of the pain completely, and they will never feel pain again in their lives.
