At 10 o'clock in the morning of June 17, 1902, in the sea area more than 50 kilometers north of the Penghu Islands in the Taiwan Strait, thick smoke was billowing and artillery was rumbling, and the joint expeditionary fleet of the Eight-Nation Alliance Navy and the main fleet of the Northeast Navy began a desperate struggle here, and the largest naval battle in the history of mankind was being carried out tragically.

As of 10 o'clock, the naval battle had just lasted for more than half an hour, but because of the sudden appearance of 6 Dragon-class dreadnought battleships and 7 super dreadnought battleships named after the province in the Northeast Navy, the Northeast Navy had an absolute upper hand in this naval battle at the beginning, especially the 13 dreadnought battleships of the Northeast Navy, and the British, French, and German Navy battleship fleets were shortened to 20,000 meters, and the 6 Dragon-class dreadnought battleships also joined the salvo, making Britain, France, The German navies of the 3 countries lost a little more all-steel battleships.

The Russian naval detachments, as well as the Italian, Austria-Hungarian, and Japanese fleets, had already begun to outflank and evade the front, but avoided further increases in losses.

Among the navies of the three countries, the British Navy sank another old man-class all-steel battleship and one Duncan-class all-steel battleship, both of which were sunk by a direct hit of a 406-mm armor-piercing projectile, and the French Navy also had a Cecilia-class all-steel battleship sunk by a 406-mm armor-piercing projectile.
