Inside the bridge of the Lushun, Zhuge Weidao couldn't believe his eyes! As he approached the Indomitable, he saw an unbelievable scene where the airship really destroyed the battleship!

And

The way of "big break" is simply incredible, oh, not completely incredible, he now thinks of the war used in later generations

The "flying camera" hangs two grenades to blow up the tank. If it weren't for the video, no one would have believed that DJ turned out to be an arms company.

And now the airship bombs the battleship in a similar way, which is to fly slowly in front of the battleship's head, then slow down to the same or even slower than the battleship, or even hover in the air, and then wait for the battleship to pass underneath before dropping bombs.

Because the speed of the airship is very slow, it naturally flies very steadily, so the bomb will not be too biased when dropped.

It may not be able to hit at once, but it is no problem to hit a few close misses, and it can also cause some damage to the battleship.

And as long as there are enough airships, there are enough bombs to drop, and the probability of hitting may be high enough.

In addition, due to the fact that the battleship was bombed after a direct hit and close miss, the anti-aircraft fire would definitely decrease. After the anti-aircraft fire of the battleship is reduced, the airship will be able to drop in altitude, and when the airship falls to a height of two or three hundred meters, the accuracy of bomb dropping will be greatly improved.

This time, Guan Tianpei dispatched 25 airships, each of which carried 16 100-kilogram bombs, for a total of 400 100-kilogram bombs.

If the average hit rate can reach 5, the Unyielding will have to take 20 100-kilogram bombs, and the remaining at least two or three percent will be near-misses!

This level of damage, not to mention more than 10,000 tons of unyielding, you let that

"True Yamato" to try, I can't stand it like this! In the end, the Indomitable was blown up at sea, and although its power system seemed to malfunction and lost most of its speed, it was still able to move, if it had been blown up in the anchorage harbor...... Haha, it takes a lot of time to boil water in a steam boiler!

I'm afraid that if I can't wait for the water to open, the boat will be gone. So after the Indomitable was blown up and sunk by an airship, most of the world will have an airship craze, right?

Zhuge said for Daoxin: "It seems that we have to get the plane out as soon as possible, and when the time comes, we can use the plane to fight the airship, and we can win again...... In addition, it is necessary to strengthen the air defense of the warships as soon as possible, but don't turn back and let the British old ones who are catching up have a plan to make it clear. As he was thinking of this, the communications officer of the Arthur suddenly reported loudly: "Sir, the Vladivostok is calling, and Chief Li has ordered our ship to approach the Indomitable, and then fire a torpedo to sink it, and salvage the British officers and men who have fallen overboard. ”

"Good!" Zhuge Weidao laughed and said loudly,

"Drive the ship over and sink the Indomitable!"

"Yes, sir!" This is the first ironclad battleship ever sunk! Although it is only a mending knife, it is still a great honor for the Lushun.

Zhuge Weidao knew that this was Li Chenghui of the Li Jin royal family, who gave himself the honor of sinking the battleship Unyielding at the end...... Of course, this is also the honor that all the officers and soldiers of Zhuge Weidao and Lushun deserve.

Because, this battle of Ji Yin Waterway seems to be Zhuge Weidao

Zhuge military division who is "exhausted".

"Reckless", or overcalculated, thought

"Imperialism wants to harm me". Of course, the current Zhuge Weidao already knows that the battle of Ji Yin Waterway is likely to be one

"Misunderstanding". Because after the reconnaissance of the airship, it is now basically certain that there are no ambushes of the shogunate navy in the Kiyin waterway and in the Pacific waters outside the Kiyin waterway.

If this was a long-planned attack by Britain and Japan, it would have been impossible for the Tokugawa shogunate not to set up an ambush outside the Kiyin Waterway.

In addition, according to the airship reconnaissance, those four caused this

The "misunderstood" pirate ship is now running away like crazy in the depths of the Pacific Ocean. And they all played the East India Company

The "Red Cross Striped Banner" is supposed to be a smuggling ship anchored in the name of the East India Company...... Well, these smuggling ships are very active in the coastal areas of Daming, Japan, and Southeast Asia, not only smuggling films, but also everything else that can be smuggled.

Moreover, these East India Company ships and Japanese pirate ships are sometimes two in one.

They are both a pirate ship and a pirate ship, and they also sell Japanese girls to the Ming Dynasty and other parts of the South Seas.

It has something to do with the Ming Dynasty, Japan, and the underworld profiteers in the South Seas. The Ming Navy has fought with them a lot, so they are very familiar with them.

The four merchant ships that were running fast and heading southeast for the Pacific Ocean were obviously the maiden ships and pirate ships, and they were also veterans.

According to Zhuge Weidao's own analysis, it is likely that they were waiting to trade with the profiteers of Osaka near the island last night.

As a result, they happened to encounter four battleships and a Japanese gunboat of the Ming Dynasty, and thought that they had met the soldiers of the Great Ming who came to capture them, so they fled while firing, and then happened to meet the British fleet visiting Japan...... Now that I think about it, it seems a bit too coincidental!

But as long as you win, and you win, it doesn't matter what the truth is! As soon as Zhuge Weidao figured out all these things, there were two roars suddenly from the starboard direction, and he quickly turned his head to take a look, and found that 1,000 meters away, the port side of the indomitable battleship that was burning had already risen two water columns tens of meters high.

The hull of the ship was tilting to the right at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after a while, it flipped over and sank into the vast expanse of the sea.

"Wan Sheng! Daming ...... Wansheng! ”

"Long live the Ming Dynasty......" Lushun bridge, cheers suddenly sounded. Zhuge Weidao smiled and said to the king beside him: "Send a telegram to Admiral Li...... HMS Arthur has sunk the HMS Indomitable battleship! ”

"Yes, sir!" ......

"Really? Is this true? Could you please say it again? Great, great, thank God...... "In Beijing, in Prime Minister Zuo's mansion, when the chief of staff of the Navy, Zhuge Weiyong, put down the phone in his hand, he was already in tears.

Zheng Guozhong looked at Zhuge Weiyong, who was crying, took a breath of cool air, and then pretended to be bold and asked, "How is the situation with it?" We...... Win? ”

"Win, win......" Zhuge Wei said with a black-faced man, wiping tears from his eyes

"Win", this is all winning and crying, how much should I win? Zheng Guozhong and Old Man Yu looked at each other, and Old Man Yu then asked: "Use it, do we win more?" ”

"Many, too many!" Zhuge Weiyong laughed while crying: "Big win, big victory, we have severely damaged a Sovereign-class battleship, sunk an Indomitable class battleship, a Lid'an-class cruiser and a destroyer!" ”

"What? Sink a battleship? ”

"That's right, I sank an Unyielding Level, and I also severely damaged a Monarch Level!"

"This, the Unyielding class has a displacement of more than 10,000 tons...... What a victory! Zheng Guozhong and Old Man Yu were both shocked...... It's too late

"Hi",

"Surprise" came first! Kill 1,000 enemies, and lose 800 yourself! It's all battleships, I'm afraid there won't be less self-damage, right?

"What about our losses?" Old man Yu has come from

"Surprised" reacted, but still didn't dare to be happy, but continued to ask.

"The Lushun was slightly injured and scratched a little skin, so it was not a big deal at all...... Four sailors were also killed, five were wounded, one of them seriously. "Zhuge is the way of use,

"There is also an airship that was damaged during landing, but it is not a big problem, and it can be used normally after repairs." Zheng Guozhong and Old Man Yu sighed at the same time, and both faces were exposed

The look of "great joy...... What a joy! Zheng Guozhong asked Old Man Yu: "Old man, is King Zhuge Wu in Europe now?" Old man Yu said: "I only entered the Suyinshi Canal two days ago...... It will take two days to cross the canal, and I guess I can go to Alexandria and have dinner with Ali Pasha today. ”

"Then hurry up and send a telegram to make King Zhuge Wu happy......" Zheng Guozhong said with a smile,

"He's got a lot of chips in his hand this time!"

"Chips?" Zhuge who was laughing from ear to ear on the side hurriedly asked,

"Xiangye, are we still talking to the British?"
