Chapter 34: The Jiawu Memorial (1)

When Zhang Yunfei's fleet entered the Yokosuka Military Port, Lieutenant Colonel Pabruneruda ordered all ships to be cautious and prepare live ammunition. Years of experience on the battlefield told him to be careful to make a thousand-year-old ship.

When the alarm sounded, the ships were ready for battle. Lieutenant Colonel Pabruleuda carefully observed the movement around him. At this time, the sudden shot from the opposite side really scared Zhang Yunfei and others, and then three more shots came. However, when he saw that he had not hit him and was far away from him, he breathed a little relieved. It was inevitable that he would be a little scared when he encountered an enemy who could attack him for the first time.

Lieutenant Colonel Pablo seemed to see Zhang Yunfei's embarrassment and said comfortingly: "It's okay, boss, you don't have to be afraid. The shells of this level are all solid bullets, and they are inexperienced novices. We fired the gun before we even entered the range, but they didn't know that they exposed their targets, but they also exposed the range of the cannons. And the most important thing is that we can hit them, but they can't reach us!"

"Report! Four enemy turrets were found, and the target position has been determined!" This was a lieutenant of the artillery on the Brad ship.

"Good job! Little Digno!" Lieutenant Colonel Pabruneruda encouraged Digno and continued: "How about showing the boss the skills of our Chilean artillery boy?"

"No problem! I'll do it now!" Digno was excited to convey the orders like other ships.

So after receiving the order, each ship aimed at the No. 1 gun position of the other party. Boom! Boom! Boom! In an instant, 12 main guns of the six advanced warships made roaring cannons, and the shells roared across the sky and headed straight towards the enemy's turret.

With the violent explosion of shells and the fire clouds that soared into the air, all ships hit the first shot!

Zhang Yunfei, standing in the command room, was stunned by the performance of the Chilean mercenaries just now. From the direction of the attack of the opponent's shells and the ballistic landing point after the shells were fired, they quickly calculated the position of the opponent's cannon firing, and then the ships fired together and hit the target accurately. It took less than two minutes in between. How high the quality of the soldiers is required! No wonder the army is getting stronger and stronger. These soldiers who have experienced many baptisms of war are simply treasures!

"How is it, my boss!" Lieutenant Colonel Pablo turned around and looked at Zhang Yunfei proudly.

Zhang Yunfei nodded affirmatively and gave Lieutenant Colonel Pabru Neruda. Then Zhang Yunfei picked up the fleet radio speaker and shouted in Spanish to the speaker: "All intellectual boys, listen, I am your boss, fleet commander Zhang Yunfei, first of all, congratulations to you on your wonderful performance just now. Now I announce that if you fight this battle well, all officers and soldiers will receive an additional salary and bonus for one month! Give me a lesson in this group of damn Japanese shorts!"

"Huha! Huha!" All the officers and soldiers of the six ships called out in unison!

Seeing the effect, Zhang Yunfei said to Lieutenant Colonel Pabru Neruda with satisfaction: "Please continue to command! Dear Pabru!"

"For the monthly salary and bonus! Look at it! Boss!" Pablo said with a smile.

Next, the first team was even simpler, and they stopped directly outside the range of the turret to continue bombarding the remaining three Japanese coastal defense turrets.

The Japanese corps captain Hirata Ichiro was so desperate that he had no other intentions, just because he could only watch the four turrets being blown up by the Qing fleet little by little without any ability to resist!

Fortunately, the north turret defenders who had run a beat slower could not catch up with the first round of artillery fire. After that, Hirada Ichiro ordered that the artillery fire be allowed to enter only after entering the range, so the north turret had not opened fire and the target was not exposed.

"Are those student soldiers who are not dry and have a good breast??" asked Hirata Ichiro.

"Report to the wing captain, they have already boarded the ship, but those warships are too old and the boiler has not yet reached the starting pressure!" The communications soldier next to him reported.

"Baga! When is it? Damn it, let them hurry up!" Hirata Ichiro said angrily.

"Hi!" The correspondent rushed to send an order.

Hirata Ichiro knew it was difficult to pass today. He never expected these student soldiers to play any role. What could only be done by those old warships and temporary small cannon ships that he thought were ridiculous? He just hoped to hold on for a while. These killer gods would just leave early after they were bombarded! He had already asked for help from the base camp, but would there be reinforcements? He himself doubted!

Seeing the first team bombarding the south turret with relish and Zhang Yunfei's reward, the soldiers of Lin Jianzhang's second team were also ready to show their faces, and they could not let a group of foreigners compete! But what made Lin Jianzhang depressed was that the mountain in the north was quiet. Lin Jianzhang knew that there must be a turret here, but it had not yet entered its range, so the second team had to continue searching and moving forward slowly.

Lin Jianzhang was constantly looking for targets in the telescope, and at this moment a telescope in the No. 5 Fortress north was staring at Lin Jianzhang's second team.

"There are still 300 meters...200 meters...100 meters...Enter the range, get ready!" A Japanese army captain was watching with a telescope, while raising his left hand to signal the gunner. The gunner next to him was holding the cannon's fuse tightly in his hand, looking at the enemy fleet slowly sailing over from the left.

"Fire the gun!" The captain gave the order.

Dong! With a dull sound, the ancient bronze cannon roared again in more than 20 years! It seemed that it was the cannon from the last Japanese civil war, but who said that outdated weapons could not strike the enemy? The bronze cannon shell rushed straight towards Lin Jianzhang's flagship Kaiji. With a bang, it hit the deck not far from Lin Jianzhang, and exploded the wooden deck of the Iron Association. Although Lin Jianzhang saw the cannon smoke in the right front, he quickly lowered his head and squatted down, the scattered wood chips still scratched Lin Jianzhang and the surrounding sailors.

Lin Jianzhang, who stood up quickly, wiped the wound on his left face. The wound was not big but made Lin Jianzhang extremely angry.

"On the direction of one o'clock, 1250 yards, 65 gun height, each ship aimed at fire!" Lin Jianzhang made a quick judgment.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! I immediately launched a counterattack! I saw smoke columns appearing around the enemy's turret!

Dong! It was the muffled sound of the Japanese bronze cannon again. This was the second inn in the north. The Japanese Fort No. 6 fire started. However, this time it was fired on the road 10 meters away in front of the Kaiji. Obviously, the cannon was also based on Lin Jianzhang, and was also aimed by an old Japanese gunner. However, due to the insufficient thrust of the Japanese bronze cannon fire, it did not fly to Lin Jianzhang. If it was a few seconds later, no matter whether the thrust was enough, Lin Jianzhang's Kaiji will be opened to the bounce point!

'This little Japanese is really good at accuracy, but this time he actually got lucky!' Lin Jianzhang secretly said, and immediately ordered the fleet to fill the left rudder to avoid the range of the Japanese turret. Lin Jianzhang had already judged the defense range of multiple parties. In addition, this old bronze cannon can only move left and right, and cannot be adjusted up and down. It is a semi-fixed type. Once it leaves its range, it will be useless. Lin Jianzhang is based on this consideration.

It was not until after avoiding the range of the turret that Lin Jianzhang felt at ease and ordered the ships to continue aiming at the target to attack. In this way, all the turrets on both sides of the Japanese Yokosuka military port were exposed to the firepower of the Nanyang Fleet, and it was only a matter of time before they were knocked out.

Zhang Yunfei here also paid attention to Lin Jianzhang's second team, because he was the real person and was much more reliable than these foreigners. Seeing Lin Jianzhang's flagship, he immediately sent a flag to ask, and he was relieved after he found out that he had nothing to do. The officers and soldiers of the second team were very grateful to see their adults asking about the situation of their warship personnel. These days, there was a boss who did not suck blood and burned incense, and it was even rare to be considerate of his subordinates. Lin Jianzhang was also very pleased. He knew the difference between him and these Chileans, and Zhang Yunfei was waiting for them to grow up, so Lin Jianzhang worked harder to order his subordinates to work.

"See you! Did you hear you! How considerate brothers are you! I will do my best to kill these dog-good things! You are watching us there!" Lin Jianzhang said inciting the crowd.

"Dare not to serve you!" The soldiers answered loudly.

Ignore the second team in the north and talk about the first team in the south.

At this time, the three turrets on this side had been blown up and the last one was still insisting that the fleet dared not approach the dock inside.

Colonel Hirata Ichiro was suppressing his soldiers at this time, because when these new recruits knew that their cannons could not attack the Qing fleet, they immediately felt a sense of grief. The word "defeat" was fatal to new recruits with extremely poor psychological quality!
