Lin Daxin saw 4 ironclad battleships with Japanese flags and a displacement of more than 10,000 tons in the distance in the Xinghai, and his body couldn't help shaking, what was going on? Where did this giant ship come from?

I worked hard for 2 years to build a powerful new army with more than 90,000 people, and spent a huge amount of money to buy two sailor academy practice fleets, making the Beiyang Naval Division several times stronger than in history as a whole! Did my efforts just go down the drain? No! Don't just give up!

Lin Daxin immediately said to Jiang Chen, who was also stunned by the appearance of the Italian ironclad battleship: "Contact the Second Fleet immediately and ask where their location is?" It's not just the Japanese who have ambushes! Lao Tzu has it too! ”

Jiang Chen reacted, and was just about to ask the crew in charge of the radio station to send a report to the Second Fleet, when Sun Xitao next to him shouted: "No need to ask!" Look! The Second Fleet is coming! ”

Sure enough, in the south of the sea area of the battle battlefield, there were 9 main warships of the Second Fleet of the Navy of the Naval Academy, the armored cruiser Admiral, the armored cruiser Second General, the armored cruiser Third General, the armored cruiser Fourth General, the old ironclad ship Yunhai, the coastal armored cruiser Changhai, the coastal armored cruiser Ruihai, the fast protection cruiser Yuehai, and the fast protection cruiser Xinghai.

Observers from various countries on the British cruiser were surprised to see another fleet appear to the south, and some observers with binoculars to scout the new warships shouted in shock: "Oh my God! The 9 new warships that appeared flew the dragon flag of the Qing Dynasty! This is the fleet of the Great Qing Dynasty! ”

Some observers recognized the origin of these warships, "Oh my God! Aren't the 4 warships in front of Italy just built for Argentina 4 new armored cruisers with a displacement of more than 7,000 tons! Behind them are two well-known Argentine fast protection cruisers 'May 26' and 'July 9'! That old ironclad and 2 old armored cruisers should also be warships of the Argentine Navy! ”

A Spanish observer lamented: "The Qing Dynasty has bought the entire Argentine navy!" Without the spoiler of the Italian mercenary fleet, the Qing navy would have easily won the naval battle! ”

A Russian observer smiled and said, "Now we can watch a duel between Italian warships!" ”

At this time, all the observers could not help but smile when they saw the four large armored cruisers made in Italy on the Qing side and the four ironclad battleships of the Italian Navy hired by Japan.

The Italian observer's face changed slightly, he didn't expect that the Qing Beiyang Naval Division still hid its strength, but he believed in the strength of the four ironclad battleships of the Italian Navy, and said to the observers: "It's a pity that the four large armored cruisers that Italy has just built are about to be destroyed under the guns of Italy's own warships!" ”

The captain of the British cruiser, Nash, who was also a British observer, looked at the Italian observer and thought to himself, it seems that Italy must have figured out the Japanese and have some plans in the Far East, and I must report this to the British Admiralty as much as possible.

Nash called his ship's first mate, bowed his head and whispered for a while, but the first mate nodded and turned away. After a while, a British torpedo cruiser with a displacement of about 1,000 tons quietly left the * ships as an observation ship.

When the officers and men of the Beiyang Naval Division appeared on the 4 ironclad battleships in Italy, most of them already felt hopeless! These 4 ironclad battleships were enough to destroy the training fleet of the Beiyang Naval Division and the Naval Academy, not to mention the Japanese Combined Fleet that was eyeing each other.

But dramatically, there was another fleet with the dragon flag of the Qing Dynasty, and then Ding Ruchang said to everyone on the Dingyuan bridge: "We still have a chance!" The new fleet is the second fleet of the Sailor Academy! Although the Japanese don't know where to get 4 huge ships, we are not without a chance! Send a report to the ships of the Beiyang team and the fleet of the Naval Academy, there is no life or death today! As long as there is one person on the ship and one bullet, you must fight to kill the enemy! Retreat and kill! ”

Ding Ruchang saw the four newly appeared ironclad battleships and knew that this decisive battle with the Japanese Combined Fleet would not be as easy as he and Lin Daxin imagined!

Ito Yuheng, the commander of the Japanese Combined Fleet, was in a ecstatic mood just now, because the Second Fleet of the Navy of the Naval Academy, which suddenly appeared, lowered it slightly, and said: "I didn't expect that the Qing Dynasty really hid its strength, and there was such a powerful fleet that was not known to our Great Japan!" However, these warships of the Qing Dynasty will be wiped out in front of the Italian ironclad battleships! ”

Ito Yuheng couldn't help but think of the number given by Italy to these 4 ironclad battleships, which made him feel the strength of the 4 ironclad battleships, but fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor was wise and hired these 4 ironclad battleships with a large amount of pounds and gold and a secret agreement, otherwise the warships that the Beiyang Naval Division was fighting with the Combined Fleet in front of him, plus the warships hidden by the Beiyang Naval Division, were enough to easily destroy the Combined Fleet.

Lin Daxin saw that the Second Fleet of the Navy of the Naval Academy had also arrived at the battlefield, gritted his teeth, and ordered Jiang Chen: "Send a report to Jiang Hui and Chen Ming!" Order the Second Fleet to stop 4 huge ships that suddenly appeared at any cost! ”

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, and immediately ordered the crew in charge of the radio station to send a report to the Second Fleet.

After a while, the Second Fleet called back, Jiang Chen walked to Lin Daxin's side with a telegram, at this time Lin Daxin was very unbearable, the 4 giant ships that appeared, at first glance, were giant ironclad ships, and it was very likely that the Second Fleet would be more than lucky, but now there was no way, only by letting the Second Fleet make sacrifices and block the 4 giant ships, could we buy time for the Beiyang Naval Division and the First Fleet of the Naval Academy to destroy the Japanese Combined Fleet.

Then he can concentrate all his forces and fight a decisive battle with the 4 giant ships, but whether he can deal with the 4 giant ships Lin Daxin has no bottom in his heart, so he can only take one step at a time!

Lin Daxin looked at the telegram in Jiang Chen's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Read it!" ”

Jiang Chen looked at the telegram and read aloud: "General Office Jun Jian: The lowly position is valued by the General Office, and the lowly position is appointed as the commander of the second fleet of the Sailor Academy, and the current enemy highlights the 4 giant ships, for the grace of the general office, the humble duty has the determination to die, and will block the 4 giant ships to buy time for the main fleet!" Jiang Hui, commander of the second fleet of the Sailor Academy! ”

Then Jiang Chen took out another telegram and said to Lin Daxin: "Chen Ming also sent a telegram!" ”

Lin Daxin continued to say in a deep voice: "Read! ”

Jiang Chen continued: "Principal Junjian: Student Chen Ming, on behalf of all the naval cadets of the Second Fleet Naval Division, for the final victory of our Beiyang Naval Division, all the naval cadets of our Second Fleet will be determined to become benevolent and carry forward the military spirit of the Weihai Naval Academy!" Swear to fight with the enemy's 4 giant ships to the end, fight to the last soldier, and wish our Beiyang Naval Division the final victory! The first phase of the teaching team of the Sailor Academy is Chen Ming! ”

The students of the Sailor Academy called Lin Daxin's first selection of 180 people as the first phase of the teaching team, and later the teaching team was expanded to 850 people, and these later expansions were called the second phase of the teaching team.

Lin Daxin still retains the establishment of the teaching team, and has transferred nearly 1,000 people from the hundreds of thousands of ordinary students of the Sailor Academy to enter the army teaching team and the navy teaching team, becoming the third phase of the teaching team.

After listening to Jiang Hui and Chen Ming's telegram, Lin Daxin suppressed a trace of sadness in his heart, and said excitedly: "They are all my good brothers and good students!" I ordered the First Fleet of the Naval Academy to raise the 'death' flag, and I was invincible and fought a decisive battle with the Japanese Combined Fleet! ”

The 9 main battleships of the 2nd Fleet of the Naval Academy turned their bows, first raised a black flag, and rushed towards the 4 Italian ironclad battleships, with a bright red word "death" on the black flag.

At the same time, the 8 main battleships of the First Fleet of the Naval Academy also raised a black flag with the word "death" in bright red.

This is the "death" flag that Lin Daxin made for the various departments of the Sailor School, when the "death" flag is raised, all the departments of the Sailor Academy must fight bravely to kill the enemy, advance without retreat, and never die!
