Except for this rod mine boat that can only attack at close range, the wooden-hulled cruiser Fellers and the gunboat Wildcat have no intention of approaching at all. They maintain a distance of about 5 kilometers from the Yanhuang and continue to use their ships. The cannons continued to attack the Yanhuang

""Boom!"

A shell fired from the 140mm cannon on the wooden-hulled cruiser Fesler landed on the front deck of the Yanhuang. In the violent explosion, a large amount of black smoke rose into the sky, along with the Yanhuang's ship. His whole body was shaking. Ye Bai's face darkened, and he held up a telescope to check the damage on the front deck through the porthole. However, the thick black smoke blocked his sight, making it impossible for Ye Bai to see the specific situation clearly.

Open the system panel directly, enter the fleet section, check the armor value loss of Yanhuang, and yell without looking back:"Ask the maintenance soldiers to check the damage of the front"667" deck."

Before the maintenance crew rushed into the smoke with the damage control personnel, Ye Bai had already learned about the loss of the Yanhuang through the system panel. He only lost less than 100 points of armor value, which was as high as 6,000 points of armor. For Yanhuang, it is not worth mentioning at all.

This is the gap in technology. Although the wooden-hulled cruiser Fellers is equipped with 15 140mm diameter breech guns, it looks very powerful, but because of the artillery The huge gap in technology and gunpowder level was far behind the twin-mounted 127mm flat dual-purpose cannons equipped on the Yanhuang. It was even inferior to the twin-mounted 102mm cannons. Seeing such losses, Ye Bai was severely He breathed a sigh of relief, closed the system panel, and continued to hold up his telescope to observe the battle ahead. Even though there were two French warships constantly attacking the Yanhuang, even the Ferrers, which had the largest tonnage and the most powerful firepower, was only Inflicting this little damage to the Yanhuang, the smaller Wildcat gunboat was even less powerful.

Therefore, Ye Bai simply ignored the two French warships, and just asked Qi Sicheng to command the Yanhuang to try to avoid the incoming missiles. A large number of artillery shells, and at the same time ordered the torpedo soldiers to keep an eye on it and choose the right time to launch torpedo attacks to sink these two nasty flies. At this time, the Yanhuang concentrated all its firepower on the Dujue Luin. There are no extra weapons to attack the Ferrers and Wildcat, so they can only use expensive torpedoes. Now is not the time to save money. After all, the Fujian Navy is not strong enough, and the Yanhuang is in a situation of attacking more with less.

This Dispersing firepower under such circumstances is undoubtedly a suicidal behavior. As the saying goes,"It is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten of them." Sinking a French warship can also reduce the pressure on the Yanhuang and the Fujian Navy.

"boom"、"boom"、""Boom"

The continuous roar of artillery and the deafening explosion of artillery shells resounded throughout Mawei Naval Port. The warships belonging to the three forces were desperately firing more cannonballs onto local warships in order to win the naval battle..

Not only was the fighting at sea lively, with the timely support of the Yanhuang, the Fujian Navy, which suffered a sneak attack and many battleships were damaged, finally recovered and began to use the artillery on the battleships to launch a counterattack against the French warships.

And Other navy officers and soldiers and army soldiers in Mawei Military Port were not idle either. Even if there was no senior officer organization, many officers and soldiers spontaneously entered the coastal defense gun emplacements and operated these coastal defense guns of different calibers towards The French warships fired, using their limited firepower to further support the Fujian Navy's battle.

The commander of the French expeditionary fleet, Guba, was a little dumbfounded at this time. His original plan was to use the advantage of being first to block Mawei Naval Port and sneak attack the Fujian Navy Division.

This plan went very smoothly at first. It was just a salvo. It not only sank two warships of the Fujian Navy, but also damaged many more. More importantly, the warships of the Fujian Navy were at anchor. It was impossible to ignite and set sail in a short period of time, let alone effectively avoid the attack of artillery shells. It could only stay in place and become a living target.

But to Guba's surprise, a mysterious warship suddenly appeared outside Mawei Military Port. , he sank his most powerful Triumph as soon as he took action, forcing himself to dispatch three warships blocking the Mawei Naval Port to contain the mysterious and powerful warship. As a result, the other side He ignored the attack on his own three warships and sank one easily. He would rather withstand the artillery attack of the remaining two warships and concentrate his firepower on the iron-walled wooden cruiser Du Jushiyin Road. Taking the lessons learned from the Triumph, the iron-flanked wooden-hulled cruiser Du Jushiyinlu, which was smaller and had worse protection, had to stop its attack on the Fujian Navy fleet in the face of Yanhuang's concentrated fire attack and urgently began to change course. , evading the Yanhuang's shells...0

It's better now. Even the shore defense guns on the shore have joined the battle. It was originally a sneak attack, but the French expedition fleet, which had the upper hand, was instantly faced with a three-sided attack. The situation was not easy. It’s wonderful.

""Boom."

Just as Guba frowned and thought hard about how to break the situation, there was another deafening explosion on the distant sea. He quickly looked up and saw that it was the warships of the Fujian Navy that had been sent to attack at close range. A rod mine boat was sunk by the Fujian Navy's counterattack artillery fire.

Not to mention the loss of the last rod mine boat, under the joint attack of the Fujian Navy warships and coastal defense artillery, another wooden-hulled cruiser and The gunboat was hit by multiple shells, and the wooden hull was already on fire, with thick black smoke drifting in the wind.

As the saying goes,"Misfortune never comes alone." When the Fujian Navy and coastal defense artillery achieved results, the Yanhuang There is a new achievement here again, that is, the gunboat USS Wildcat. When it turned its bow and adjusted the shooting angle, the torpedo soldiers on the Yanhuang seized the opportunity and directly fired a 533mm diameter torpedo. Both sides The distance was less than 5 kilometers. This 533mm diameter torpedo maintained a top speed of more than 40 knots almost throughout the entire journey. Before the French naval soldiers on the Wildcat could react, it hit the waterline. 2.6.

With a loud"boom" and a violent explosion, the Wildcat battleship with a displacement of only 500 tons was directly blown into a ball of fire. The armor value of less than 1,000 points was instantly cleared, and the entire battleship was instantly destroyed. It fell apart and quickly sank to the bottom of the sea.

The tragic experience of the Wildcat also frightened the French naval officers and soldiers on the Ferrers. They almost subconsciously began to retreat slowly, trying to open up the gap between the Yanhuang and the Yanhuang. After all, this invisible attack is so weird. I don’t even know how it was sunk. How can people not be afraid?

"boom"、""Boom"

Coincidentally, the Yanhuang almost had a big explosion in this round of attacks. Not only did it successfully sink the Wildcat gunboat with a torpedo, but two of the new salvoes from the three main guns also successfully hit the target. The iron-walled wooden cruiser Du Jushiyinlu...
