The Myoko's desperate counterattack gave the Izumo a respite, and Matsuno wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and ordered the warship to turn to the right, and in ten minutes, he would give those stupid Shina men a taste of the flames of the Imperial Navy's wrath.

At the same time, the commander of the fleet, Nomura Kichizaburo, sent three telegrams for help to the port of Whampoa, where the cruiser Hirado was docked, as well as the aircraft carrier Noto Lu, especially the aircraft carrier Noto Lu, which could carry three seaplanes and could take off to attack the Wusong Fort in an all-round way without sailing out of the port at a time.

Asking for reinforcements was by no means good news for the captain of the Izumo, Matsuno Shozo, because if he had to rely on friendly support when fighting against the weak Shina people, it would only prove that his ability was in question, which was a great shame in the Japanese military circles, which was a great shame in the Japanese military circles, and at the same time meant that the future was bleak, so after Nomura Kichizaburo sent a telegram asking for help, he decided to make a desperate bet, either defeating the Shina people to keep his honor, or a vigorous battle, with the festival of all samurai.

In an instant, Matsuno had already come up with a near-perfect plan.

……

The command bunker of the Wusong Fort was full of concrete scum that had been shaken down by the shelling, but the bunker was not damaged, and an officer suddenly pointed to the river and shouted excitedly: "Look, the Izumo has fled, the Izumo has fled." ”

Yu Sanhe hurriedly picked up the binoculars and looked, sure enough, the Izumo was at full power, and soon disappeared into the river fog, he couldn't help but wonder a little, in his impression, the Japanese army has always fought to the death, and it is almost unimaginable to escape from the battle, but now this Japanese ship has slipped away so neatly and neatly, and it disappeared without a trace without even firing a shot, Yu Sanhe did not doubt him, and immediately built yì said:

"Right now, all the firepower should be focused on the Myoko, which is lying on the ground."

The artillery captain nodded repeatedly, originally the two Japanese warships echoed each other, bringing a great threat to his battery, like it was difficult to win a complete victory, and now there was only one Myoko left that could not be opened, and it was not easy to capture.

"All gun emplacements are ready, target Myoko, fire."

At the sound of an order, the eight-inch and four-inch guns immediately spit out dazzling red flames, and several shells of hundreds of kilograms shot out, and a few seconds later, a sigh of regret sounded in the bunker, and once again there were no grains, and not a single shell hit.

Seeing this result, the artillery captain began to become impatient, "Is the No. 7 gun repaired, and how long will it take to fix it?" ”

"Report to the company commander, at least half an hour."

This is tantamount to announcing that the cannon has actually withdrawn from the battle, and in half an hour, the outcome of this naval battle has already been decided, but it is still too early to guess who will win and who will lose.

The poor table of his subordinates finally made the artillery captain furious, and began to call the gun positions one by one, and after connecting it, he opened his mouth and scolded: "Do you have glasses under your noses, if you can't hit again, you will jump into the river to feed Wang Ba." ”

Originally, the artillery positions and the command headquarters were commanded by the flag, but after Deng Zhenquan took over as the commander of the fortress last year, a lot of new equipment was added to the fortress, including the telephone lines and telephones laid between the headquarters and the gun position.

Another salvo was fired from the north and south batteries of Wusong, and the curses of the artillery captain seemed to have an effect, and a four-inch gun shell hit the waterline armor belt on the port side of Myoko, but unfortunately it was not powerful enough, and only tore a small hole in the armor belt.

Everyone in the command headquarters could even faintly hear the cheers of the Myoko sailors on the river, this time not only the artillery captain was impatient, but even Yu Sanhe was anxious, "Damn, what kind of shit luck is little Japan taking today, so many times I didn't hit, and if I hit again, I will be beaten hard." ”

Yu Sanhe is a landlubber who doesn't know anything about naval warfare, so he can only shout a few words like a drum cheering, in fact, he doesn't quite understand, the naval battle between warships and artillery battles is very large, just like two people throwing dice, and the luck factor accounts for a considerable proportion, so the Wusong Fort continues to fly, not that the artillery technology is not good, but that the luck is too bad.

As soon as the words fell, I saw a puff of black smoke rising from the bridge of the Myoko, and then the mast slowly fell, and without warning, a four-inch gun fired backward successfully hit the Japanese ship, and the headquarters suddenly burst into thunderous cheers and applause.

"Fight well, another shot to sink him."

Yu Sanhe shouted excitedly, he was a little out of shape at the battle torture that he could only watch from afar, but could not participate in person, reached out to untie the wind and discipline button on the collar, and took off the military hat again, sweat beat the somewhat long head into a lock and stuck it to his forehead.

He picked up the binoculars and looked at the river, he wanted to see how much damage the cannon had caused to the Myoko, whether it could sink it, and the observation made him very depressed, except for the hull of the ship was a little tilted and the black smoke was thicker, there was no sign that the Myoko was about to sink, but instead saw several flames spewed out from the muzzle of the Myoko, and he knew that it was a Japanese ship firing shells.

As soon as the thought fell, the earth shook again, and the sound of the cannonball explosion seemed to explode around him, and for a minute, Yu Sanhe's ears buzzed, and he couldn't hear anything.

Looking at the top of the bunker, a gap in the thickness of the child's arm had been cracked, and the accuracy of the shot was incomparable, and the artillery captain wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, secretly glad that this was not a twelve-inch gun, otherwise this concrete bunker would be the place where everyone would be buried.

Yu Sanhe had completely lost his patience, half an hour had passed, and even a lying warship could not be sunk, and the training of the defenders of Wusong Fort had been corrupted into such a situation, which made him greatly disappointed.

He turned to the adjutant beside him and said, "Go and let our artillery company support the friendly forces, and let our 125-mm howitzer be imposing." ”

The artillery captain couldn't cry or laugh, the 125 mm caliber howitzer was already considered a heavy artillery in the 6th Army, but it was nothing in the navy, and the power of the four-inch gun of the battery was far greater than it, not to mention that the armor-piercing shells used to strike warships were definitely half the effort, but he was a commander, so he naturally didn't dare to talk much, and he looked relieved.

"The regimental artillery company has been taken out early, and I don't have to fight so hard."

Yu Sanhe waved his hand, although he knew that this was a very flattering word, he still accepted it gladly, and suddenly, the shadow of a ship seemed to loom in the river mist on the far right of his current fortress.
