Chapter 135: The First Confrontation

"As long as you can sink the enemy ship, I can open the supply and never cheat." Sun Xiaohu responded loudly on the phone. Song Wu waved his arm and said, "Captain, just look at it, this time your

I'm afraid it's not enough to collect it."

Song Wu was talking in front of the sending machine and his subordinates kept firing again. Song Wu's character exploded and directly shot the Bogaqiu next to the Boyalin.

Cross-fire is very terrible for a warship, which means that the other party has completed its aim. The difference is only a little luck, and you will have an 80% chance of hitting the next shot.

Sure enough, for the second shelling, the shells fired by Song Wu penetrated into the main gun mount of the "Pogachu", and all the main guns and members of the gun team were blown to the sky. At this time, several other turrets also had results.

The flagship of the Cossack fleet, the Lurik, was hit by a shell on the side of the side. The shell penetrated into the ship and exploded, causing some losses. Another shell hit the command tower of the "Pogachu" and

The commander was taken in one fell swoop.

Ten minutes later, after enduring the result of one sank and two injuries, the three warships that continued to retreat finally returned to the speed of eight knots. However, the reversing was slow, and such maneuvers were of no help to the battlefield. Although the Cossacks used it before

The main guns continued to attack, but unfortunately their artillery did not have a loader, and the firing rate was too slow, almost reaching a speed of five minutes. Moreover, they only had three main guns left, and their firepower was very sparse.

Seeing this situation, Sun Xiaohu continued to turn decisively, relying on the opportunity to cut into the inner circle to continuously narrow the distance with the other party, approaching the other party and shooting. After reaching two nautical miles, the two "Tongjiang" class cruisers had ten gates on the side of the side.

The 152mm secondary gun also began to fire.

Although these shells were not loaded with much and the pellets were not large enough, they were more than enough to deal with cruisers produced by the Cossack Empire. The 'Rulick', which was close to the advance fleet, was flattened by dense bomb rains.

, and the hit rate of the main gun that approached the shooting also increased greatly, hitting the "Rulick" in a mess, and the ship quickly began to tilt.

Although Teggalev immediately ordered the sailors to start plugging the leak and at the same time ordered the water balance to pour into another side, unfortunately there were too many loopholes. The warship with a small displacement could not bear the injection of so much sea water. It was still

He quickly sank, and in desperation, Teggalev had to order the abandonment of the ship, and he moved to the only intact 'Baidouvi' to continue commanding.

Seeing that retreating was impossible, Teggalev bit his teeth and ordered the warship to reverse gears again and rush forward. Sun Xiaohu did not expect that after a stagnation and was bombarded, the other party still dared to do this. The two cruisers of the advance fleet were dispatched.

The speed was too fast, so I rushed over.

Seeing that he lost his position, Sun Xiaohu immediately ordered to turn again and snatch the T-shaped head of the opponent's stern. Teggalev also ordered to turn again, and the two fleets drew circles around their respective opponents. Finally, the Chinese territorial navy sent the lead.

The fleet was faster, and two cruisers took the lead in entering the battle position. Eight main guns and ten secondary guns began to fire at the same time. The dense shells hit the ships of the two remaining cruisers of the Cossacks.

The artillery fire of Sun Xiaohu's fleet was quite dense and the accuracy was not bad. The already injured "Pogachu" was no longer supported. After being hit by several shells, it began to slowly overturn, revealing the bottom of the ship.

In the fierce artillery fire, the Baiyiduowei barely completed the steering, and two main guns and four secondary guns also began to roar. Due to the close distance, the Cossack Navy finally achieved results, one hundred and thirty mm.

The secondary artillery shell hit the stern of the ship of the "Tongjiang" and caused a large hole with a diameter of one meter. Fortunately, the shrapnel did not hit the servo, which made Wan Yong sweat in a cold sweat.

However, the Baiyiduowei could not support too much damage. One of the shells even penetrated into the steam engine in the boiler compartment and exploded. The hot steam instantly steamed all the sailors in the boiler compartment.

The lost motivation number "Baiduowei" completely stopped.

After several rounds of baptism from the other party's shells, the entire superstructure of the Baiyiduowei was almost flattened. After the hull was damaged in many places, the Baiyiduowei finally began to sink slowly, perhaps because he knew that he was still alive.

There will be good results. Teggalev did not choose to escape and sank with the warship. After two hours of naval battle, the Chinese territorial naval advance fleet sank four Cossack cruisers with a complete victory, and only one warship was born

Minor injury.

After the battle, the two supply ships received a notice from Sun Xiaohu on the radio and drove over immediately. The supply ship brought repair technicians. They immediately used the steel plates on the ship to repair the damaged "Tongjiang" number, but fortunately they were not injured.

Heavy, after the technician of the ship used steel plate to rivet the holes, there was no problem at all. The two cruisers replenished shells and burned coal and then sailed towards the Cossack Expeditionary Fleet again.

Marshal Baglamyan found that the four cruisers he sent had not come back for several hours, and he felt a little unsure, but he believed that the number of cruisers he sent was twice that of the other party, and that no accident would happen unless he encountered an ambush in a large fleet.

Marshal Baglamyan's idea was good, but when he saw the two Chinese-led cruisers driving back, he knew that the warships he sent were in danger, so he never dared to send cruisers to intercept them again.

Leave. According to his conclusion, the main fleet of the Chinese leader must be nearby, otherwise how could these two cruisers come back without any damage, but their four cruisers mysteriously disappeared.

After making such a judgment, Marshal Baglamyan immediately ordered the fleet to set up formation and ready for battle at any time. The Cossack Expeditionary Fleet did not come to pursue, just fulfilling Sun Xiaohu's wish. He sent back the ship type and number of the other party with radio.

Headquarters.

Zhang Haiyang took the telegram sent by Sun Xiaohu to Liu Junguodao: "Xiaohu fought so well. He sank four cruisers in one battle, but it was great."

"How is the result of the investigation?" Liu Junguo received the telegram and did not look at it, but put it on the map table. He himself was still looking at the map of the Southern Ocean. Zhang Haiyang said: "Xiaohu reported that the Cossack Expeditionary Fleet is now occupying the Western Kingdom.

Near the southernmost island of Ceylon.”

"Oh?" Liu Junguo turned his eyes to the small island in the southernmost part of the Western Kingdom and said in surprise: "They are much slower than I expected." Zhang Haiyang said: "According to Sun Xiaohu's report, the other party's fleet is in

There are as many as fifty-three supply ships, and these are all used, and the speed is naturally slow."

"How many warships do the other party have?" Liu Junguo asked. Zhang Haiyang picked up the telegram and looked at it: "There are twelve ironclad ships and thirty-one cruisers, but four of them have been sunk by Sun Xiaohu."

"Xiaohu is doing a good job." Liu Junguo nodded. Sun Xiaohu was on Liu Junguo's warship when he was intern at the Naval Academy. He was still very familiar with this spiritual young man.

Zhang Haiyang said: "Commander, what should we do?"

"Wait." Liu Junguo said firmly. "Wait? When will you wait?" Zhang Haiyang asked.

"When the opponent's sharpness is gone, until they are exhausted, and they must wait until they pass the Imperial Navy's defense zone." Liu Junguo replied extremely firmly.

Zhang Haiyang said: "Why? According to Xiaohu's report, their fastest 'Bozos' class cruiser only has a speed of fifteen knots. It can be seen that the parasites at the bottom of their ship are very serious, and the steam engine has sailed tens of thousands of miles.

They are also on the verge of overhaul. They are now at the end of their strength and do not have much combat power."

Liu Junguo used the drawing pencil in his hand to click the location of Quanzhou Port on the map and said, "The young master told me that I must force the Imperial Navy to express my opinion. The Cossack Navy will never allow a powerful force that may be the enemy before attacking us.

The naval fleet threatens its side, and as long as we remain unmoved, the Imperial Navy must make a choice, even if they choose to be neutral."

After receiving the order to continue tracking, Sun Xiaohu was a little confused. Since he had discovered the enemy, why did the Chinese fleet not attack and why did he not specify the attack area, and just said that he would continue tracking.

Although Sun Xiaohu couldn't figure it out, he knew that his superiors naturally had their intentions and could only follow the instructions. Although he was following, Sun Xiaohu did not want the Cossack Expeditionary Fleet to sail so comfortably.

After following the scene for most of the day without any action, the Cossacks got used to these two followers and ignored them at all.

As time goes by, night begins to fall. The weather is not good this night. The dark clouds cover the moon. On such a dark and windy night, if you don’t do anything, Sun Xiaohu feels sorry for the cultivation of the young master over the years.

.

Taking advantage of the night, the two cruisers led by Sun Xiaohu began to lean towards the Cossack Empire Expeditionary Fleet. The lights were turned off. In order to avoid the noise being heard by the other party, the steam engine was completely decompressed, and the propeller speed was reduced to the lowest. The warship only had eight knots.

Move slowly.

The Cossack fleet had no searchlights at all, and only had a few torches on the warships. No matter how many sentinels there were in such dim lights, no one would find these two uninvited guests.

Because they could not see the water surface clearly, the Cossack Expeditionary Fleet did not dare to travel quickly. Their pilot ships could only rely on the charts to crawl on the sea surface at a slower speed, while the ship behind watched the torches on the ship in front.

The two cruisers of the advance fleet gradually approached the end of the Cossack Expeditionary Fleet, where they were freighters used to transport supplies.

After the two warships, Hailin and Tongjiang, were looking for good targets, Sun Xiaohu gave the order, and the torpedo tubes on both sides of the cruiser began to inflate and pressurize for the first time, and the two warships successively launched eight torpedoes.

Rowing towards several nearby cargo ships.
