"Sure enough, he is a battle-hardened veteran, and he will never miss a chance." Looking at the bitten Russia in the distance, Essen smiled bitterly. At this time, because of the blockade of the Russian, most of the firepower of the Prince could not threaten the Taipei, unless the Russian turned to give up and ran away and rushed directly towards the Taipei, otherwise, the Taipei, which has an advantage in speed and mobility, can always use the Russian to avoid the gunfire of the Prince, and then get close to the Russian and knock on the Russian!

But at this time, Essen really didn't dare to turn back, because they had been delayed in this sea area for too long, the commanders of the Beiyang were not stupid, they estimated that they had discovered the plans of the Russians, I am afraid that other warships in the Beiyang who got the news are rushing here, right? Once the Beiyang Fleet arrives, there is still a certain distance outside Muroran Port, then I am afraid that the entire fleet will eventually be completely annihilated, right?

Just as Essen was thinking wildly, a sudden explosion from behind him made Essen's heart tighten. At this time, the distance between the Taipei and the Russian is at most 2,000 meters, in order to leave the most elite cruiser of the Russian Navy, Lin Tai once gave up his long-range shooting accuracy advantage, but chose the bloodiest and most direct way to fight the opponent at close range! AT A DISTANCE OF ABOUT 2,000 METERS, THE TAIPEI'S 4 11-INCH GUNS AND 5 6-INCH GUNS AND 3 105MM GUNS ON THE TAIPEI'S SIDE CHORD ATTACKED AT THE HIGHEST RATE OF FIRE. A series of explosions sounded on the side and deck of the Russo, and clouds of fire and smoke instantly filled the entire battleship.

At this time, although the condition of the ship of the Russian was very poor after a series of battles. But in the face of the attack of the Taipei, the Russian officers and soldiers on the entire Russia are also desperately resisting! Seeing that you can go home, under the temptation to go home. The Russians burst out with one hundred and twenty percent combat effectiveness, all the personnel were mobilized, all the artillery that could be used was spewing deadly tongues of fire at the Beiyang battleships not far away, and the two battleships were like two steel giants fighting in the simplest, most direct and most powerful way, and the two sides had no way back from the moment they fought!

Beiyang will never allow the Russian Navy to attack again to affect its overall strategy, as a high-level executive, Lin Tai once understood very well. Beiyang can't support the attrition on the battlefield for a long time, and it must be ready to end, and more importantly, it's time to finish. Beiyang wants to recapture Vladivostok before the end, because of road and capacity problems, the artillery of the Beiyang Army has little effect, and it is still the naval guns that really want to knock on the iron box of Vladivostok! Therefore, Beiyang must completely cripple the Russian Far Eastern Fleet in this war. Let Makanov no longer have the ability to enter the East and Yellow Seas!

As for the Russians. Running for your life is one thing, and more importantly, this battleship pinned too many hopes on the Russian Navy, the Russia! The only armored cruiser in the Russian Navy named after its own country! The most elite and brand-new cruiser in the Russian Navy would be too cruel for Russia and the Russian Kazakh army if they could not survive even a full-fledged war!

The two sides are constantly projecting tons of ammunition at each other, and hand-to-hand combat is a competition of firepower and protection to see who can overwhelm the other side first! There is nothing fancy about this kind of collision, everything is based on strength! And in this high-intensity confrontation, the Russian will not be able to hold up in the first place! It is not due to water ingress or damage. During the construction of the Russy, special emphasis was placed on protection, especially against high-explosive shells. The real reason why the Russian did not work first was that the Russian did not have enough shells!

It's really no wonder that the ammunition reserves of the Russia are low, the key is that after 2 major wars, no amount of ammunition reserves can be used in the third fierce battle, and it is rapid-fire artillery shells that will soon run out, after all, the rate of fire is too fast. Some of the rapid-fire guns on the Russell had exhausted all their stock within 30 minutes of the exchange, and only a small number of 6-inch guns and the 11-inch main gun in the bow of the ship were still holding on.

Boom, boom! Two loud bangs sounded in quick succession from the rear of the Russia's hull! At a distance of less than 2,500 meters, the rear main gun of the Taipei shot two 11-inch armor-piercing shells into the stern of the Russian at a nearly vertical angle, and the first shell hit the main armor belt, and the huge impact was on the main armor belt of the Russia, although it did not break through, but tore a whole main armor plate from the hull, directly causing a large opening of more than ten square meters near the tail wheelhouse of the Russian ship! The other shell directly penetrated the upper armor belt of the Russo, and then exploded above the wheelhouse after passing through several compartments, and the huge battleship was suddenly in a semi-out state in order to directly destroy the wheelhouse!

"Tell General Essen that our ship is no longer able to act autonomously." The captain of the Russia looked at the stern of the battleship, which was covered in smoke and flames, and ordered. A few minutes later, after receiving a telegram from the Russo, Essen decisively ordered the Prince to abandon the seriously injured Russo, and evacuate at high speed, not only because the Russose had been severely damaged and it was difficult to go back, but also because he saw two plumes of smoke emerging from the side and rear! A new fleet is coming again, but certainly not the Russian one!

"Lord Cheng Biguang's fleet has arrived." An officer said, pointing to two cruisers in the distance and a torpedo boat with hedgehogs gathered around.

"The Russian is dead, but the Prince is estimated to have run away, but it's okay, stay and block the Japanese." Lin Taizeng said with a wry smile. "Distance, just let the torpedo boat get rid of it in a moment." The Taipei was also badly damaged, and after being washed by a large number of rapid-fire guns at close range, the superstructure of the Taipei was also in shambles. Now that the ending has been decided, there is no need to continue to fight hard.

An hour later, Cheng Biguang's fleet finally felt that what was unexpected was that under this absolute disadvantage, the Russian did not give up resistance, and still used the few remaining rapid-fire guns to resist the attack of the torpedo boats. The so-called trapped beast is still fighting, which is to describe the Russian number at this time, right? Lin Tai had thought of it.

The Russians' unyielding will to die is indeed admirable, but it has no effect on the outcome. Under the salvo of eight torpedo boats, the pride of the Russian Navy, Andrey's most powerful armored cruiser, finally sank to the bottom of the sea, and this also marked the beginning of the battle in the Far East. The Russian Far East Fleet, which had only three capital ships left, was no longer capable of posing the slightest threat to the Beiyang Fleet and the Beiyang sea transportation lines, so it could only stay in the military port for a long time, vigilant against the possible sneak attack and harassment of Hokkaido by the Japanese fleet. At this time, the Russian fleet did not even dare to enter the Sea of Japan easily, and completely degenerated into an existential fleet.

After receiving Essen's telegram about the battle situation, he directly led the fleet back and did not make contact with Deng Shichang's two PISA-type armored cruisers. At this point, the Russian fleet did not take any military action against the Beiyang Fleet until the war was resolved. The battle between the Northern Fleet and the Russian Far Eastern Fleet is actually over!

The sea is calm again. The naval battle that lasted several months finally ended, and after this war, there was only one fleet in the Far East and even the entire East and Southeast Asia that could be called the hegemon, that is, the Beiyang and foreign fleets under the command of Xu Jie.
