Until the Yanhuang entered the battlefield at a very fast speed, the two old devils, Hikonojo Uemura and Heihachiro Togo, of course, at this time, they are not old, they are only in their 40s, and they can be regarded as officers in the prime of life.

The two guys finally found out that something was wrong, which means that something happened to the Yoshino, either defeated or fled, and there is a possibility that it was pinned down by the other party.

However, the two old guys didn't want to believe in the first two possibilities at all, the Yoshino can be regarded as a cutting-edge warship that has just been purchased and launched by the Japanese-benzene combined fleet, and its combat power is strong, and it is not so easy to defeat or sink.

As for escaping from the battlefield, it is even more impossible, Kawagen is not only the captain of the Yoshino, but also the commander of the first guerrilla group of the Combined Fleet, and is deeply trusted by His Majesty the Locust, not to mention, he is still a real samurai, and it is impossible to abandon his comrades on the battlefield and escape from the battle~.

In this case, there is only one more reasonable explanation left, that is, the support fleet of the Beiyang Naval Division found that the situation of the Jiyuan was not good, so they divided their forces to fight, while containing the Yoshino, and rushed to support the Jiyuan.

Having come to this conclusion, both Hikonojo Uemura and Heihachiro Togo breathed a sigh of relief, and in the absence of being able to communicate through the flag, they also divided their forces very tacitly, and the Akitsuzu continued to attack the Jiyuan, while the Naniwa turned its bow and opened fire on the Yanhuang, which had just been inserted into the battlefield.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

One shell after another exploded around the Yanhuang, especially the two 260mm Lupp guns equipped with the Naniwa, which were even more powerful, blowing up a wave of waves, but also causing waves to appear on the originally calm sea, making the Yanhuang's hull shake.

In the face of the Naniwa's attack, the Yanhuang that was diagonally inserted into the battlefield naturally did not mean to be polite, and the turrets of the three twin 127mm dual-purpose guns on the battleship turned one after another, and the high muzzle was aimed at the Naniwa.

Subsequently, a group of flames erupted from the muzzles of the black holes, and six 127mm diameter shells flew out of the muzzles, which also landed around the Naniwa, and the large number of waves that exploded also shook the hull of the Naniwa.

This time, Lu Teyans did not pull away again, relying on the advantage of the range of the guns on the Yanhuang to attack the Naniwa, after all, the range of the two 260mm Lupp guns on the Naniwa also reached about 12,000 meters, and the Yanhuang did not have much advantage in the range.

Therefore, the two sides maintained a distance of about 4 miles and continued to fire artillery and bombardment, which was quite lively.

And the Jiyuan, which was originally struggling to support, was also relieved, they fought extremely hard with one enemy and two just by virtue of their bloodiness, and now with the support of the Yanhuang, their opponent was only one Qiujinzhou, and the pressure was instantly reduced by more than half.

Even Fang Boqian, who was not very courageous, shouted in the bridge as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, commanding the Jiyuan to attack desperately, and it was inseparable from the Qiujinzhou.

The distance between the warships of the two sides is not too far, not more than 5 kilometers at all, this kind of close-range shooting, the hit rate is relatively impressive, but overall, it still occupies a higher level of hit rate of the Yanhuang that occupies the advantage of technology and performance.

Looking from the outside of the battlefield, even if there is a thick smoke shrouded in gunpowder, you can still see fireballs rising in the air from time to time.

Those fires were nothing else, they were produced after a shell fell on the hull and exploded, which shows the fierceness of the battle, even the Yanhuang was hit twice by the cannonball fired by the Naniwa, once it exploded at the side position, tearing a hole in the side side.

Another shell landed in the middle of the hull, blowing up a single-barreled 20mm diameter machine gun at the same time, but also caused casualties to several crew members, fortunately Ye Bai had the foresight to recruit a group of medical personnel on the Yanhuang to set up a medical cabin, otherwise these wounded would not even have a place to treat.

The Yanhuang was hit by two shells, and the Naniwa was naturally even more uncomfortable, after all, the hit rate of the shelling at this distance was still a few cuts higher than that of the crew members on the Yanhuang.

As far as Ye Bai saw with his own eyes, there were at least 5 fireballs exploding on the Naniwa, which meant that under the continuous salvo of the Yanhuang, at least 5 shells fell on the Naniwa's hull, and there was a violent explosion.

Ye Bai silently calculated the account in his heart, these 5 shells almost knocked out nearly 2,000 points of armor value of the Naniwa, so calculated, it seems that the use of cannonballs is really not as good as torpedoes, but the price of a torpedo is 5,000 yuan, which is too expensive, it is very cool when you use it, but it is quite distressing after using it.

The Naniwa was knocked out by the Yanhuang with nearly 2,000 armor points, plus the losses caused by the previous battle with the Jiyuan, the Naniwa now has at most two-thirds of the armor value, although it is still considerable, but it makes Ye Bai feel that victory is in sight.

These shells that successfully hit the Naniwa not only knocked out nearly 2,000 armor points of the Naniwa, but most importantly, ignited a fire on the Naniwa's hull, and the bright light of the fire was like a big torch on the sea, pointing out the target to other warships.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

Just when the Naniwa and the Yanhuang launched a fierce confrontation, they circled around the sea, and the Peng Ze, which had returned to the other side of the Naniwa, had already entered the attack position, and did not use the main gun salvo, and fired a 3mm diameter torpedo on the plane.

As the captain of the Naniwa, Heihachiro Togo always thought that the Penzawa was pinning down the Yoshino, so he was not even more prepared for the Pengzawa sneak attack, not to mention that the Naniwa has now ignited a fire, and many crew members have joined in the firefighting work.

Lacking sufficient vigilance for the situation on the surface and under the water, the three torpedoes fired by the Penzer easily collided with the Naniwa's hull, causing a violent explosion.

Three torpedoes with a diameter of 533mm exploded one after another, almost killing the Naniwa, and three big openings were blown up on the side of the Naniwa's hull, and I don't know how many cabins were blown up.

To make matters worse, one of the torpedoes exploded near the Naniwa's power compartment, and the force of the explosion blew up several adjacent compartments, including the one that was close at hand.

Several coal-fired boilers were blown up in the violent explosion, which paralyzed the power system of the Naniwa, and without the support of power, not only did the speed of the Naniwa be greatly reduced, but it was almost stagnant, and many subsystems could no longer be used.

0 begging for flowers

Faced with a live target parked on the sea, Lu Teyansi and Jiang Chaoying had no intention of showing mercy to their subordinates at all, and respectively commanded the Yanhuang and Peng Ze to concentrate their firepower on the Naniwa.

In the close shelling, the hit rate of the Yanhuang and Peng Ze was not bad, and now the Naniwa has lost most of its power, and it is a little difficult to even barely maintain the voyage, which makes the hit rate of the two battleships increase several notches again.

A 127mm diameter shell flew from the left and right directions, and landed around the Naniwa, which lost power and speed, and in the violent explosions one after another, the Naniwa did not know how many shells were hit.

With a shell accurately landing on the Naniwa's main gun, the heavy 260mm Krupp gun was blown up directly, and the Naniwa's counterattack became even weaker.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

The Yanhuang and Peng Ze joined forces to attack, and in just a few minutes, the Naniwa was blown to pieces, and the entire hull superstructure was almost razed to the ground, and the guns were either blown up or restored to a state of parts.

Under the continuous explosion, the remaining two-thirds of the Naniwa's armor value continued to decline, and soon under the attack of the two 533mm diameter torpedoes fired by the Yanhuang again, the armor value was emptied, and the entire hull was blown into several sections, slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea.

A battleship with a damaged power system and a loss of most of its speed is undoubtedly a live target for torpedoes, not to mention that the chaotic Naniwa simply does not have the energy to notice the attack from under the water, and even if it does, it cannot effectively avoid it, so it can only bear helplessly.

The Naniwa was sunk, and only the last Japanese battleship Qiujinzhou was left on the entire battlefield and was still doing its final dying struggle, don't look at the Qiujinzhou is now fighting quite fiercely with the Jiyuan, and even has the upper hand, if it weren't for the timely support of Guangyi, which restrained part of the energy of the Qiujinzhou, I'm afraid it would have won the victory.

But now it was different, the Yoshino and Naniwa were sunk one after another, and the Yanhuang and Pengze were completely free, turned the ship, and launched a fierce attack on the Akitsuzu.

Together with the Jiyuan and Guangyi, a full 4 warships surrounded the Qiujinzhou, and shells of various calibers flew from all directions, and Qiujinzhou was powerless even if he had the heart to dodge.

In just a few moments, it was hit by several shells, which ignited a fire in the battleship superstructure, and the strength of the counterattack became weaker and weaker, and it only took a while to fight, and the Akitsuzu Island would inevitably sink.

And what's even funnier is that seeing such a great opportunity to beat the water dogs, he was responsible for transporting official documents, but he met Gao Sheng on the way, and the gunboat Caojiang, which was traveling with him, couldn't help but join the battlefield.

With a displacement of several hundred tons, two 120mm guns fired continuously, and although the damage caused to the Akitsuzu was limited, it was like tickling, but the courage was commendable and the spirit was worth encouraging.

Suffered from the artillery fire of 5 battleships, as well as torpedo attacks from time to time, not to mention such a protective cruiser as Akitsuzu, even if the ironclad ship came, it couldn't bear it, and it didn't last long before it slowly sank to the bottom of the sea in the continuous shell explosion.
