Feng Zicai could clearly see the Japanese main battleship Fuso without a telescope. He couldn't help but tremble with excitement. Bai Snake Lang Junzheno Tianren calculated the time when the enemy fleet would arrive. The Japanese army really only had one cruiser, which was similar to Li Guolou's pre-war layout. There are at least forty enemy ships, but there is no need to be afraid. The vast majority of the enemy fleet is old-fashioned wooden ships. These old-fashioned wooden ships have extremely poor protection and cannot withstand Kaori's attack.
Feng Zicai's confidence doubled and he was not afraid of the enemy's arrogance and shouted loudly: "Send a report to Commander-in-Chief Li and report that our army has discovered more than 40 enemy ships. The main enemy ships are one cruiser, four battleships, frigates, and ten other ships. When warships and old-fashioned wooden ships see the flag of the Ryukyu Kingdom, a fierce battle will begin."
The signal corpsman wrote down what Feng Zicai said and repeated it before leaving the command room.
"Use a T-shaped team to meet us and raise the command flag." Feng Zicai's expression was fierce and he was willing to die generously. There was no way out. Even if he died in battle, he would fight to the death with the Japanese army.
"The wind comes, the wind comes, the great clear water division is with the wind, the white snake god bless me, the great clear water division." The officers in the command room shouted wildly and waved their fists. They believed that the white snake man could not control the wind and rain, and the great clear water division would win.
The Great Qing Navy moved forward to face the enemy ship in a decisive battle posture. Under the blue waves and blue sky, the two naval fleets refused to give in and wanted to kill each other. This century-old humiliation
The fleets of both sides began to close the distance of 10 nautical miles. The gunners were gearing up. One by one, thick armor-piercing weapons were loaded into the breech. The turret began to rotate the barrel and raised it to the maximum elevation angle, pointing maliciously at the other side. The reserve team was already in place. The medical officer poked his head out from time to time. The doctor began to check the first aid. The box gunner stuffed cotton balls into his ears. The turning point in history depends on everyone's performance.
The long-awaited battle has finally begun. After the Korean naval battle more than a hundred years ago, the warships of both sides once again looked at each other at such a close distance.
If the Qing Dynasty wants to rise again, Japan, which has been a national humiliation for hundreds of years, will beat the Qing Dynasty to pieces [
The majestic bodies of the two giant ships resembled legendary prehistoric beasts with their sharp fangs gradually closing in. Heavy and slow, they were as irresistible as the footsteps of fate.
"This is the day I have been waiting for. The Japanese are nothing. Brothers, the time for the motherland to test us has arrived." Feng Zhaojin, the third officer on the cruiser Mighty, stood proudly on the fort and was not afraid of the enemy's gun barrels.
It was difficult for Feng Zhaojin to describe his inner feelings. He wanted to set an example so that the naval officers and soldiers around him should not panic, build up their morale, and show their prestige. It would be useless to die at this moment without considering the consequences.
No one will be afraid, no one will think that they may be sunk at this moment, and they can only stick to their posts.
Everyone on the ship, from the boilermaker to the commander, knew very well that they were about to participate in a collision between armored monsters. Such an opportunity had been in everyone's mind since the beginning of the war. They had planned and prayed to the White Snake God many times. 's blessing
Layers of white clouds rolled in and appeared above the warring sea area. The rolling clouds changed in various shapes, and it seemed that the heroic spirit of Lord White Snake was appearing in the clouds to cheer up the heavenly soldiers and heavenly warriors.
Feng Zicai stroked his beard and said: "The Great Qing Navy is favored by heaven and God has blessed me. The Great Qing Navy will win this battle."
Feng Zicai took part in too many battles unhurriedly and had already put life and death aside. However, this time he did not think about retreating with a complete victory, nor did he think about repeated defeats. He only wanted to win and make the Great Qing Navy proud and proud.
For the victory of the entire army, it is worth sacrificing the first echelon. The first echelon commanded by him is the price to pay for the overall victory.
The muzzles of the guns are shining on the sea, and the gods are whispering on the clouds, as if to say, "Everything is ready. God bless the Qing Dynasty."
Boom boom boom boom
Huge waves rose from the sea, and hundreds of cannons streaked across the sky. Two of the most elite navies in the East started a decisive battle on the Diaoyu Islands.
The cruiser Mighty trembled under the gunfire and was hit by enemy artillery. It suffered huge damage. The deck was penetrated by the fort and hit. The naval officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties. However, Feng Zicai did not flinch and stood in the command room, even if he died, he would die standing there.
This is a test of iron will. The enemy's ships were also destroyed by artillery fire. The first round of the battle between the two sides was a test of the commander's will.
Hundreds of tons of steel poured down, and individual bravery was reflected in the fort where the commendable officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty stood firm at their posts despite the rain.[
"Fire" an officer's face was charred and only one hand was left. He donated blood and soaked his uniform. He still commanded the battle. Death is not a matter of life and he must fight to the end.
Feng Zhaojin was seriously injured and couldn't leave the line of fire. He waved his sword with one hand and he would continue to fight as long as he had breath left.
The officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty knew their responsibilities and had to sacrifice their personal lives for the victory of the entire army. Their hearts burned with raging fire, and they fought to the death for the motherland and never backed down.
"Fire the gun" "Fire the gun" "Fire the gun" "Fire the gun"
Every artillery on the deck roared with fire and spewed out the evil breath in their chests angrily. Thunderbolts and fire were given by the sky. The officers and soldiers of the Great Qing Marine Division used all their strength to attack the enemy's warship. A truckload of guns and guns were transported from the bottom of the cabin. The gunners braved the gunfire.
The fierce enemies shuttled on the ship cannot scare them because their names have already been engraved with the word "hero".
The fierce battle is in full swing. The cannons are roaring across the sea. The booming sound of the cannons makes people turn back. Every drop of sweat is just to be proud of today.
A Japanese battleship became the main attack target of the Daishi Marine Division. It withstood hundreds of cannon attacks and was finally hit. The battleship roared loudly and huge black smoke filled the sky.
"Well done!" Feng Zicai waved his fist and cheered loudly. The enemy and we were entangled and each lost a battleship.
The Qing fleet withstood huge blows and moved forward under enemy fire while still maintaining its overall formation.
Each shot was fired with the dignity of the Qing Dynasty, the desire for ZTE, and the hatred of the enemy, like fire dragons rushing towards the enemy ships.
The enemy ships' cannons were not to be outdone. Their cannons were flying all over the sky like locusts, and their accuracy was no worse than that of the Great Qing Navy. It can be described as a lose-lose situation.
The enemy's artillery fired at the Qing Dynasty's main battleship, the cruiser Weiwei, with a sharp roar, and a column of water rose into the sky. The officers and soldiers on the Weiwei suffered heavy casualties, but the replacement officers and soldiers continued to rush out of the cabin to replace the lost gun barrels.
After it was damaged, several officers and soldiers immediately carried out an artillery piece and rushed to repair the damaged fort. The Mighty still had the strength to fight to the end.
The cannons of the Qing warships were as accurate and ferocious as if they had eyes. The cannons poured down on the enemy ships like hail. Although the enemy ships' cannons were also firing continuously, their rate of fire was not as fast as that of the Qing navy. Even the Japanese
No matter how brave the race is, the advantages and disadvantages of the race will be distinguished in a protracted war. The officers and soldiers of the Qingqing Marine Division, who are tall and strong, have broad shoulders and round waists. One person can carry a cannon of more than 100 kilograms.
The short Japanese can't carry a gun weighing more than 100 kilograms no matter how hard they try. They need two gunners to load one armor-piercing round. The loss of one gunner is a fatal blow to the Japanese army.
After receiving the first batch of attacks, the Daiqing Marine Division had a slightly better time in the stalemate battle. The enemy's sharp artillery was not as fierce as before.
The sea seems to be noisy and chaotic, mixed with harsh noises. The naval battle is a long-term battle, and it is difficult to determine the outcome.
At 12:45, one of the most arrogant Japanese battleships got up and broke into the Qing Dynasty's T-shaped battle group alone. Zhao Zilong, who felt good about himself and thought that single-handedly, could disrupt the Qing Dynasty Navy's formation.
Feng Zicai found a once-in-a-lifetime fighter plane and immediately commanded the fleet to launch a fierce attack on the enemy battleship.
Soon the battleship was beaten to pieces by Qing battleship cannons. The Japanese soldiers on the enemy ships scurried around. Some ran a few steps and fell down, never to get up. Others jumped into the sea to find a way out. The enemy ships were caught in a raging fire. There was a violent explosion
From the telescope, we could clearly see the soldiers on the enemy ship's gun emplacements lying motionless. Soon, there were silhouettes again. The commander of the battleship Xiangying decisively ordered the front and rear main guns: "Hit me hard." bit off”
The battleship Xiangying's ten guns roared again, firing one round after another. With old hatred and new hatred, they flew towards the enemy ship's gun emplacement. The enemy ship began to sink, and the hull tilted to one side.
After a while, the enemy ship burned like a heavy elephant and slowly sank into the water and was buried in the belly of the fish. The battleship, which was 52 meters long, 84 meters wide and more than 800 tons, took only 10 minutes to be swallowed by the sea water.
Feng Zicai was overjoyed and secretly praised Li Guolou's thoughtful attack formation. It was a bait with a curved hook. The Japanese army couldn't bear it. Sure enough, the Japanese took the bait. The loss of battleships on both sides was 1 to 2. The Qingshui Division had the upper hand and had the advantage of time. Standing behind the Qingshui Division. Persistence on this side is victory
Feng Zicai stared at his pocket watch, watching the passage of time. Telegrams urging the second echelon of the Great Qing Navy to support were sent out one after another. Feng Zicai knew very well that in this state, the Great Qing Navy would not be able to hold on for long, and the balance of victory was tipping towards him. Japanese troops tilted
The fierce naval battle continues. Thick smoke of gunpowder spreads in all directions with the sea breeze. It floats and spreads, giving people a feeling of recovery. Death is right in front of them. Even if they die on the fort, they cannot restore the decline.
The pungent smell of gunpowder shows that the intensity of the naval battle has reached an incandescent level. The officers and soldiers of the Qingmi Marine Division are ready to sacrifice. The gunners aim at the target and fire a cannon full of anger and hatred at the enemy ship.
A battleship ran out of guns. The Xiangying dragged its injured body and rushed towards the Japanese fleet. They must defend the dignity of the motherland with loyalty and bravery in the face of the powerful Japanese army. They are not afraid of death and face the approach of death.
Feng Zicai saw the battleship Xiangying escorting the right wing of the Mighty and broke away from the team. He shouted without hesitation: "Change tactics and use flying wing tactics to protect the right wing Xiangying."
Feng Zicai did not back down but launched an attack on the enemy. He had received a call back from Li Guolou. Li Guolou deceived himself. The second and third echelons had already circled behind the enemy and were approaching the battlefield from the eastern sea. Li Guolou was ambitious and wanted to annihilate them all. The Japanese main fleet actually ignored the safety of the first echelon
Li Guolou acted so despicably that he disregarded the safety of the Nanyang Navy. Feng Zicai could not help but have the urge to kill Li Guolou. The battle was so brutal. The first echelon suffered heavy losses. The second echelon did not follow the pre-war arrangement within an hour. It was Li Guolou's fault that he arrived at the battlefield. Feng Zicai took out his pistol and put it on the command platform. He had become crazy and no one could stop him.
At this time, Ono's five troops on the Fuso were already panicking. They were surrounded by enemies from both sides and were in danger of being annihilated. Two large Qingshui divisions were outflanking them from the southeast. They were only fifteen nautical miles away from the battlefield. However, the Qingshui division still had more than sixty ships. I have seen the sound and shadow of another cruiser. It is the cruiser Mighty, which is the main ship of the Great Clear Navy.
There was a wolf in front of him and a tiger in the back. Ono and his five brothers were at the end of their rope, and they pulled out the saber awarded by His Majesty the Emperor and prepared for the final decisive battle to apologize to His Majesty the Emperor with death.
"Papa"
With two clear slaps, Tanaka Fu, the senior copy of the Fuso, threw his hands and slapped Ono Gobe twice and angrily said: "You bastard, now is not the time to commit suicide and apologize. Lieutenant General Ono, you have to lead the fleet out of the enemy's encirclement. The Fuso is mine." I command you to go to the Sakura to command the retreat. This is the decision of all officers. The enemy will not let go of the Fuso. At this time, the only way to save the situation is to sacrifice the Fuso."
The large dungeon, Tanaka Mansion, looked at the outflanking Daishiki navy fleet, knowing very well that the defeat could not be saved. He knew that if the battle continued, there would be a danger of the entire army being annihilated. The remaining main ships were more or less injured, and the "medicine" was replenished to become a fatal injury supply. The ship was too late to transport the cannon, but it had to turn the tide and try to break through the defense line of the Daiqing Navy and escape with a few more ships.
Ono Gobu looked at the officers in the command room and knew that he had to pay the price of blood for his impulsiveness. This battle was an ambush set by the Dai Qing Navy against his conspiracy. However, he did not see through the enemy's conspiracy. What he wanted to do now was to escape from him. We cannot die in battle, but we must return alive for the sake of the morale of the Japanese army.
"Hey, I accept the order of Chief Officer Honda to command the retreat of the Sakura." Ono Gobe's noble head was low and he did not have the courage to continue the fight and left the command ship Fuso.
Ono Gobu boarded the battleship Sakura and led the fleet to break out to the west. The battlefield where the cannons were flying was already with him. Ono Gobu accepted the fate of failure and covered the retreat of the fleet.
