0701 Victory
The fired ships caused great trouble to the Japanese fleet, because their formation was too dense at this moment. The fired ships that had lost their control ability could only move around the team with the wind and waves, causing the just-ordered formation to become a mess. In this way, the Japanese fleet would have no spare time to organize its counterattack.
Although the sporadic counterattack of the Japanese fleet also caused damage to Liu Pei and Wu Yizhou, the counterattack without organization is doomed to fail. Moreover, Liu Pei and the others no longer care about anything else at this time. They must be rescued by the surrounded warships in a short time, otherwise if the time is delayed, there will be no help!
At this moment, the central battlefield of the Japanese fleet had entered a white heat. The Japanese ships that were repelled just now swarmed up again after resting for a while! After suffering huge losses, they approached the four surrounded warships. Fortunately, the wreckage of their ships just now played some obstacles.
At this time, the ship surrounded was covered with scars! Not only did the sails have turned into rag strips, but some wounds of all sizes appeared on the strings of the ship! Fortunately, the Japanese guns were relatively small in diameter, and the cracks that were shot were not big! At the same time, Liu Pei's warships used watertight compartments. Moreover, with the efforts of the sailors to repair, they maintained their survivability.
Now all sailors are helping to shoot on the artillery deck, and all Japanese ships within their range are targets. The sailors are already fighting with the belief of "kill one enough, kill two to earn one"! There are even brave soldiers igniting the flower bullets, then throwing them from the strings of the ship to blow up the nearby ships!
But there were too many boats surrounding them! Three or four boats were surrounded by each ship. With the efforts of the sailors, the actual time of their death was greatly delayed! But it was only delayed.
After more Japanese ships gathered, their bird guns were also dense. The soldiers on the deck were slowly suppressed after being shot at each other! So the sailors all retracted their hatch and organized defense there to block the deck with muskets to prevent the Japanese from boarding the ship.
On the periphery of the Japanese fleet, Liu Pei and Wu Yizhou have already burst out with their greatest combat power! They are even within 70 meters of the Japanese ships.
Shooting wildly! At this distance, each gun will cause huge damage to Japanese ships and the deaths of multiple sailors!
At this moment, these fifty ships, like erupting volcanoes, pouring their shells into the enemy at the fastest speed! Heavy artillery will make holes in the waterline of the enemy ship and let the sea water pour in. The chain bullets and shotguns will clear all living people on the opponent's deck! Flowering bullets often only have two rounds of shooting, or even one round of shooting, and a Japanese ship will declare that it has lost its combat effectiveness!
In a very short time, they fired countless shells at their opponents, and even made the cannons on one side hot, forcing them to spend time falling over the bow and attacking their opponents with the cannons on the other side.
Under such a crazy attack, the Japanese fleet was finally shaken! Their approach of rushing forward finally made them taste the bitter fruit. In the chaos, the situation that it was difficult to command and contact became more serious! Now Masaji Miura is no longer able to control the fleet at all, so he can only let them fight on their own!
In the previous few confrontations between the Japanese fleet and the Liu Pei fleet, they had lost dozens of ships. Those ships were either burned or sunk, and some ships that had lost their navigation ability were drifting with the flow, and only a few injured ships fled back to Yokohama Port.
Moreover, they were always in the position of being attacked, so their morale had dropped very low. The Japanese soldiers were not fools, they could clearly distinguish the gap between their combat effectiveness and the enemy. They understood that one side had no chance of winning, and at most they would block the other side's fleet and delay the war, but in the end they were still defeated.
At that time, an army could die in battle and not collapse without disintegration, which was a qualified army. If it could not collapse when the battle was damaged by 30%, it would be a real iron army! And the Japanese were far from able to do this.
The most terrifying thing is that the navy commanded by Masaji Miura came from many Daming's command. This is a reason for the poor command. In addition, each Daming is unwilling to lose too much strength, so he naturally has to instruct the samurai who leads the team to retain their strength as much as possible. Most of the warships in the Japanese fleet in the Soyuzhai are not working. If they are allowed to fight with the wind
It's still OK, but they really can't fight the tough battle!
Up to now, those who really contributed their efforts in the battle and were the navy directly under the Tokugawa family. With more casualties, their control over the entire fleet naturally dropped to a terrible level! In addition, the continuous blows and morale continued to decline, Masaji Miura was able to maintain the navy until now without disintegration, which was achieved by the majesty of the Tokugawa family.
Even if Masaji Miura came up with a chaotic and orderly fight, it would have been just a last blow from Yu Yong. If they hadn't surrounded four warships and allowed the Japanese soldiers to see a glimmer of hope for revenge, I'm afraid that Liu Pei and Wu Yizhou would have taken turns to attack the Japanese front twice, and they would have completely collapsed.
But when the Japanese soldiers discovered that even if they surrounded four warships, they had to pay a great price to seize them, their only courage disappeared! Immediately afterwards, when Liu Pei and Wu Yizhou fought on the periphery of the fleet in a very violent manner, the last trace of luck in the hearts of the Japanese soldiers also disappeared!
After all, the losses of the Japanese fleet have reached more than 100 ships, which has exceeded 30%! This is entirely due to the majesty of the Tokugawa shogunate and the favorable conditions for local combat to persevere until now! When they can't see hope, the collapse will naturally be particularly fast!
When a ship on one side of Liu Pei's fleet quickly left the battle group and left, it was like a thread was pulled out from the online group, and a series of ships left the battle group and left! Then a large fleet fleeing in all directions!
Seeing the opponent's fleet fleeing in scattered areas, Liu Pei breathed a sigh of relief! Liu Pei carefully observed the battlefield. There were less than 30 Tokugawa family fleets left on the battlefield, and most of them surrounded the four warships and did not stop attacking.
Liu Pei immediately ordered: "Leave ten ships, and the rest of the ships are all scattered, two are in a group, and chase and kill the fleeing Japanese ships! The more sunk, the better!"
Chapter completed!
