On the cruiser 'Xinhua', Wei Yong, commander of the First Fleet, held a telescope and watched the battle. The huge battleship Isabella was under siege by the cruisers Xinhua and Zamboanga. Although, the battleship Isabella had more displacement than the cruisers Xinhua, and the cruisers Zamboanga combined, and the number of guns was nine times that of the cruiser Xinhua. However, in the battle, the battleship Isabella was clearly at a disadvantage.

"Tell the brothers! Be accurate and sink the flagship of those foreign devils! Wei Yong shouted loudly.

"Boom!" Suddenly, a loud bang came, and Wei Yong only felt that his feet were shaking, and the whole person fell on the deck at once.

"Holy shit, the 'Xinhua' was actually hit!" Wei Yong didn't care about the pain of being fallen, got up from the deck, and asked loudly, "Report the battle damage!" Report me the battle damage! ”

Seconds later, Wei Yong got the report. A nine-pounder shell hit the foredeck of the cruiser 'Xinhua', leaving a large hole in the deck, and two sailors were killed at the same time. In addition, one of the two 105mm guns on the foredeck was also damaged in the explosion, and only one was able to continue firing. Fortunately, when the 'Xinhua' was hit, the shells in the two main guns on the foredeck had already been fired. Otherwise, once the shell inside the shell detonates. It is highly likely that the cruiser 'Xinhua' will cause more serious damage. I wonder if this battleship, which has made countless meritorious contributions to the Xinhua State, will be sunk!

"Dog's day! Fight back! Sink the 'Isabella' for me! Wei Yong roared angrily. The Xinhua was almost sunk, which made him feel scared for a while. As the first official warship of the Xinhua Navy, the 'Xinhua' undoubtedly has a very high status. If the 'Xinhua' is sunk. That will be a heavy blow to the Xinhua Navy, and it will even cause the war situation to be affected. And Wei Yong, as the captain of the 'Xinhua' and the commander of the First Fleet, has no face to continue to live.

"Boom! Rumble! "Two minutes later, the cruiser 'Xinhua' began to roar again. It's just that only one of the two 105mm guns on the foredeck is still able to continue firing. The 'Shark-class' cruisers value speed. But in terms of defense, it is not good enough. Unless you don't get hit by enemy ships, once you hit the vital point. There is the potential for a deadly threat. There's no way around it, because you have to make sacrifices in other areas to pursue speed. Fortunately, the naval guns of the Xinhua Navy have a huge advantage, which can save the Xinhua Navy from a direct threat. Of course. Although the distance of the battle is about three thousand meters. It was already at the limit of the range of the naval guns of the Spanish fleet. But this does not exclude the possibility of being hit. In terms of probability, the Spanish fleet fired so many shells, and there will always be shells that hit the warships of the Xinhua Navy!

On the battleship 'Isabella', Admiral Fernance was ecstatic when he saw smoke rising from the foredeck of the cruiser 'Xinhua'. But then, he saw that the fire was extinguished, and the cruiser 'Xinhua' opened fire again!

"Damn. Those guys were lucky! But next time you won't have such good luck! Admiral Fernance seemed to be comforting himself. As a matter of fact. For the Spanish fleet, it was luck to hit the warships of the Xinhua Navy.

At 9:15 a.m., a third class battleship of the Spanish fleet was sunk by the Second Fleet of the Xinhua State. The huge battleship, with a displacement of more than 1,700 tons, fell apart in the explosion after eating more than a dozen shells. It was also the first capital ship of the Spanish fleet to be sunk in this naval battle. It was as if after this battleship was sunk, the Spanish Navy began to be unlucky. One by one, the capital ships were sunk. Despite the heavy price, the casualties they inflicted on the Xinhua Navy were minimal.

'General!' The battleship Barcelona' asks to withdraw from the battle! A communications officer reported to Admiral Fernand.

Admiral Fernance held up his binoculars, and he saw that the battleship 'Barcelona' was already scarred at this moment. The two decks of the battleship were already pitch black, and many places were still burning. The sailors of the battleship Barcelona did their best to extinguish the fires, but it was very difficult.

'General!' The Barcelona' was hit by at least ten shells. The mainmast has been broken, and the speed of the battleship is constantly decreasing, and it is almost impossible to keep up with the speed of the battle line! The communications officer explained.

"Will the Barcelona still be able to escape? Those navies of the new country will definitely not let her go! Admiral Fernance closed his eyes in pain. There is no doubt that in such a state, the battleship 'Barcelona' is already inevitable. The battleship Barcelona was a second-class battleship with a displacement of more than 2,300 tons, and a total of 98 guns were deployed on three decks, making it one of the most powerful battleships. It's just that the second-class battleship, which is one of the main forces of the Spanish Navy, has no power to fight back in the face of the 'Shark-class' cruisers of the Xinhua Navy. The 'Shark-class' cruiser 3,000 meters away can accurately inflict fatal damage on the second-class battleships of the Spanish Navy, while the second-class battleships of the Spanish Navy are powerless against the 'Shark-class' cruisers of the Xinhua Navy.

Admiral Fernance agreed to the withdrawal of the battleship 'Barcelona' from the battlefield. It's just that the battleship 'Barcelona', whose mainmast was broken, dropped to only five knots. At such a speed, it is impossible to escape the pursuit of the Xinhua Navy.

Sure enough, after the battleship "Barcelona" withdrew from the battle line, the No. 16 cruiser of the Xinhua Navy also withdrew from the battle line and headed straight for the battleship "Barcelona", wanting to completely send this huge second-class battleship to the bottom of the sea.

After more than ten minutes of fierce fighting, the battleship 'Barcelona' was sunk! All 750 officers and men on board the battleship fell into the sea. Because no one came to rescue them, in the end none of these officers and soldiers survived!

"Ha Lu Ha! There is a sinking ship! Brothers, work hard and sink all those foreign devils! On the No. 21 cruiser, Lu Haipeng, commander of the Second Fleet of the Xinhua Navy, roared excitedly. The opponent of the 2nd Fleet was ten battleships of the third rank! It's just that now these powerful third-class battleships are being played around. The 11 'Shark-class' cruisers of the Second Fleet of the Xinhua Navy (one of which was withdrawn from the battlefield early due to injuries) repeatedly ravaged these 10 third-class battleships. One by one, the mighty 3rd class battleships were hit, caught fire and burned, and then sank into the sea!

In less than two hours since the start of the battle, the Second Fleet has already sunk three battleships of the third rank. The remaining seven third-class battleships are also under siege by the Second Fleet of the Xinhua Navy, and sending them all to the bottom of the sea is just around the corner!

On the other hand, the Third Fleet of the Xinhua Navy also achieved fruitful results. Their enemies were two battleships of the third rank, four ships of the fourth rank and four ships of the fifth rank. At the beginning of the battle, Liu Xu, the commander of the Third Fleet, put the main target of the operation on the fifth-class warships of the Spanish fleet. These fifth-class warships, which are relatively fast, pose a great threat to the Xinhua Navy.

More than an hour later, the four fifth-class warships were all sunk by the Third Fleet of the Xinhua Navy. After that, the Third Fleet focused its strikes on the fourth-class warships of the Spanish fleet. The other two third-tier battleships completely ignored them. Battleships, though powerful, were slow and pose little threat to the fast Shark-class cruisers. Liu Xu is planning to deal with those faster battleships first, and then deal with the powerful battleships later!

The three major fleets of the Xinhua Navy are all fighting according to the predetermined plan, and each fleet has achieved good results. It is estimated that it will not be long before they will be able to completely establish the victory, and the most difficult victory is just around the corner!

"General, the battleship 'Valencia' has been sunk!" A junior officer reported to Admiral Fernand.

At this moment, Admiral Fernand's face was gloomy, as if he could drip water. He didn't know how many times he had heard reports of his own warships being sunk, and it made him seem to be numb!

"How many ships have we lost so far?" Admiral Fernance asked.

"General, we have fought so far, and today we have lost two second-class battleships, four third-class battleships, two fourth-class battleships, four fifth-class battleships and three sixth-level battleships!" The junior officer said with some frustration. It has only been half a day since the start of the war, and the Spanish fleet has already lost half of its warships, leaving only one first-class battleship, three second-class battleships, eight third-class battleships, two fourth-class battleships and one sixth-level battleship, which are still struggling to support!

"Damn it!" Admiral Fernance cursed viciously. He never imagined that the situation of the war would change so quickly, the Xinhua Navy seemed to be getting braver and braver, and the morale of the Spanish fleet had fallen to the bottom. Such a change was evident in the battle. Seeing their own warships being sunk one after another, the sailors of the Spanish fleet were also terrified, which directly affected their performance. Originally, it was not easy for the Spanish fleet to hit the warships of the Xinhua Navy, but now it is even more impossible! (To be continued......)
