Although the supership Hercules dropped two giant bombs of 800 kg, only one hit the French Navy's Cecilia-class all-steel battleship Michelia, with a displacement of 13,500 tons.

But just this 1 giant bomb is enough to kill, this 800 kg giant bomb penetrated the 76 mm deck armor of the Michelia, and exploded violently inside the hull of the Michelia, and the power of the explosion instantly detonated hundreds of 305 mm shells in the ammunition compartment of a main gun of the Michelia not far away, and the location of the explosion of this 800 kg giant bomb almost broke the keel of the Michelia, breaking the all-steel battleship with a displacement of 13,500 tons. As a result, hundreds of 305-millimeter shells were killed, and to add insult to injury, the Michelia did not escape the fate of being blown in two.

After an earth-shattering explosion, the Michelia broke into two and soon sank into the sea, none of the 600 French naval officers and sailors on the Michelia escaped, even the French naval officers and sailors who jumped into the sea to escape, were also sucked into the bottom of the sea by the vortex generated by the rapidly sinking warship, so that all the French naval officers and sailors on the warship sank to the bottom of the sea with the Michelia.

The Michelia became the first all-steel battleship to be sunk by the French Navy in the naval battle of the Gulf of Ussuri and the first warship in world history to be sunk by an airship.

The all-steel battleship of the Michelia almost exploded earth-shattering, and it also startled Zhang Guoxin on the super airship Hercules, but he had seen the explosion of an 800-kilogram giant bomb, and the power was not so great! But then Zhang Guoxin thought that he might have detonated the ammunition compartment or power compartment of the French Navy's all-steel battleship below. Now that the all-steel battleship is sinking at a rapid speed, Zhang Guoxin will not investigate what part of the bomb it hit. Zhang Guoxin shouted with a red face: "Speed up!" Fly over the next one! Brothers, let those nosy French people below. Taste our 800 kg bombs and make the French who got involved regret it for eight lifetimes! ”

In the bridge of the all-steel battleship Cecilia, the flagship of the French Expeditionary Fleet, the fleet commander François saw that the Michelia was blown up and sunk all at once, and his body couldn't help shaking, and Ruth, the captain of the Cecilia next to him, quickly helped François, "Commander, are you okay?" ”

François said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that I led the most powerful fleet in the history of France, and I had not yet engaged the Northeast Navy, and I would encounter this kind of new airship bombing. My God! I should be the hapluckiest fleet commander in the history of France! How could the Qing Dynasty people build such a huge airship and do it so fast! ”

Ruth looked at the three airships that were bombarding indiscriminately at the head of the fleet outside, and asked with a very anxious face: "Admiral, what should we do now?" The small-caliber rapid-fire guns on our warships could not shoot at airships flying above the warships. ”

At this time, two more violent explosions sounded in a row, and a French protective cruiser with a displacement of about 2,000 tons was hit by two 300-kilogram bombs from the large airship Mercury, and a 300-kilogram bomb hit one of its twin 152-mm main gun turrets, which not only blew up this turret, but also the cabin under the turret was blown up and caused a fire, and even more seriously, a 300-kilogram bomb penetrated the deck armor of the protective cruiser with only 20 mm. It pierced through two layers of steel plates, and exploded violently in its power compartment, causing several boilers to detonate instantly, and blasting a large hole more than 20 meters long and more than 3 meters wide in the waterline armor on one side. Rapid pouring of seawater into the ship's hull.

The French naval officers and sailors on the protective cruiser knew that there was no way to stop the sinking of the warship, and they could not hold out for long depending on the situation, so the French naval officers and sailors on the warship jumped into the sea one after another. Try to swim into the distance, away from this protective cruiser. Sure enough, it didn't take long for the protective cruiser to roll over on its side and slowly sink into the sea. Of the more than 200 French navy above, less than 50 escaped.

Almost at the same time that this French protective cruiser overturned on its side. Another French protective cruiser with a displacement of more than 3,000 tons was hit by a 300-kilogram bomb from the large airship Venus, which penetrated the fragile deck armor and exploded inside the hull of this protective cruiser, detonating an ammunition compartment located in the bow of the ship, almost blowing up the bow of the protective cruiser, and the sea water poured into the hull from the bow, making the bow sink more and more into the sea, and the stern of the protective cruiser was warped out of the sea, depending on the situation, the sinking of the protective cruiser was inevitable.

After the protective cruiser disappeared into the sea, there were more than 60 French officers and men floating in the sea, and more than 200 others sank to the bottom of the sea with the warship.

The commander of the French expeditionary fleet, François, saw that as soon as the airship flew to the head of the fleet, 1 all-steel battleship and 2 protective cruisers were blown up and sunk, and he couldn't help but have a trace of the idea of retreating in his heart, but even if he retreated now, according to Guò's observation of the airship just now, these enemy airships can continue to chase their own fleet to bomb with a flight speed that exceeds the maximum speed of the warship, and even if he successfully retreats with the French expeditionary fleet and returns to France, There is no way for him to continue to gain a foothold in the French military circles, and the French parliament and the people will not see that they have encountered a new type of equipment, an airship that can carry huge bombs to bomb warships in the sea, but will only see that they lead the most powerful fleet in the history of France, and they fled back to France without engaging the enemy's navy, making the French navy a laughing stock all over the world.

So François let out a sigh of relief, calmed down the frustration of encountering the airship, and ordered in a deep voice: "Let the warships cooperate with each other, the airship flies to the head of a warship, and if the angle of the small-caliber rapid-fire gun can be aimed at the airship, the surrounding warships will fire at the airship fiercely, and the gondola under the airship is armored, so they will shoot at the airbags of the airship, and blow up the airbags, I see that the airbags of the airship are out of gas, how can it fly!" And if you can deduce the hydrogen in the gas bag, the airship will be scrapped! ”

Now the airship airbags that appear in Europe are filled with hydrogen, and Francois doesn't know that Lin Daxin's airships are all purchased from modern time and space, and they are not filled with flammable hydrogen, but a kind of non-burning helium. Now this kind of helium can only be industrialized in Lin Daxin's chemical factory in the whole world.

François then said to Cecilia's captain Ruth in a helpless tone: "Even if we leave now, we will be bombarded by these faster airships, and now we can only pray to God to bless our expeditionary fleet!" ”

While the French Navy's expeditionary fleet was bombed by airships, the Russian Navy's Second Pacific Fleet, which was sailing in parallel, was also bombed indiscriminately by the Helios supership and the Mars airship.

The Russian warship, under the order of Commander Rozhdestvinsky, used the small-caliber rapid-fire guns on the warship to fire fiercely at the two airships that flew by.

But the effect of the shelling is not obvious, the airship is at an altitude of 2000 meters, so high and so far away, many small-caliber rapid-fire guns can be aimed at an angle, but the range of the shells can not reach the altitude of 2000, because at this angle that can be targeted, the shells fired by small-caliber rapid-fire guns must reach a straight-line distance of 5000 meters away, and the range of many small-caliber rapid-fire guns is not at all 5000 meters. That is, the shells fired by small-caliber rapid-fire guns can reach an altitude of 2,000 meters where the airship is located, and the trajectory has not become a straight line, so although the rapid-fire guns on the warship add up to a lot, it is difficult to hit the airship in the air.

Even if a small-caliber shell was lucky enough to hit the alloy armor of the gondola compartment, it had no effect at all, and there was nothing to be done about the alloy armor outside the gondola compartment, at most the personnel inside the gondola compartment felt a slight shock.

The larger airbag on the airship gondola compartment, even if a small-caliber cannonball hits the airbag, but this high-fiber airbag of modern time and space will not be damaged much, and even this airbag can also bounce the small-caliber cannonball, that is, the explosion of the small-caliber cannonball can only blow a small hole in the airbag at most, plus the airbag is helium in it, and it will not burn, and the airbag of the airship is divided into hundreds of small airbags, and there are 1 or 2 small airbags leaking, which cannot affect the normal flight of the airship at all.

When approaching the Russian Navy's Second Pacific Fleet, the Helios supership increased its speed and, with a maximum speed of 100 kilometers per hour, flew to the head of the Borodino-class all-steel battleship Yegoryevsk with a displacement of 13,500 tons.

The captain of the Helios super airship is called Zhang Heng, who was born in the fourth phase of the teaching team, and turned out to be the battalion commander of the battalion guarded by the Guards Division in the secret base outside Shenyang, this time Lin Daxin formed the airship unit of the Northeast Air Force, Zhang Heng's battalion was drawn from the Guards Division, and Zhang Heng also became one of the captains of the only two super airships in the Northeast Air Force.

Zhang Hengtong saw that his Helios supership had reached the top of an all-steel battleship of the Russian Navy, and immediately ordered two 800-kilogram giant bombs to be dropped from the two bomb ports in the gondola compartment.

"Boom-boom-" Two 800-kilogram giant bombs hit Yegoryevsk one after another. (To be continued......) R1292
