Uemura Hikonoshima stood up and rolled around, shouting in a hissing voice: Return at full speed!
From being completely still to moving forward at full speed, it was a long wait for the Akitsusu ironclad. At this moment, for the little devils on the ship, time seemed to have stopped.
The armored ship Akijinsu, which started hastily, began to shake violently amidst the roar of the machine, which was almost a whine. Almost all the little devils on the ship seemed to be numb, staring blankly, like the return of the king.
~b3 Dreadnaught Battleship.
The little devils are anxiously looking forward to it in their hearts, hoping that the B3 Dreadnought Battleship can be slower, and slower again!
It is a pity that what they were praying for was a group of black heavy artillery shells coming towards them.
The Imperial B3 Dreadnought Battleship opened fire on the enemy ship~the ironclad Akitsusu!
Before Deng Shichang launched the East China Sea Fleet, he raised the command flag and the battle flag. At this time, his order was:
Use the most powerful large-scale incendiary bombs to completely annihilate the enemy ship Akitsusu. Everything on the armored ship, including the Japanese soldiers, must not leave a screw behind - annihilate them all!
This is an iron-blooded order, an order that makes all the Imperial Navy soldiers on the B3 Dreadnought battleship excited!
The Japanese ironclad Akijinzhou is the fastest warship of the Japanese, with a maximum speed of more than 26 knots. If the B3 dreadnought battleship is not improved, it will have no advantage in terms of speed when facing the Japanese ironclad Akijinzhou.
That’s awesome!
Today's B-class dreadnought battleships have been restructured. The speed is no longer about 25 knots before, but has reached 28 knots, and the endurance has been further enhanced.
Based on his own technical conditions, Zhou Yu made some necessary improvements to various warships of the empire, including B-class dreadnought battleships.
Within 10,000 meters, Deng Shichang ordered the B3 dreadnought battleship to open fire on the enemy ship Akijinsu. He had his own hidden reason for doing so.
On the one hand, the enemy ship is still in a relatively static state, and your own bombardment can at least interfere with the enemy ship's procedures; on the other hand, the enemy ship has four 150mm rapid-fire cannons, which can attack the enemy ship within a certain distance.
Your own b3 still poses a certain threat;
Finally, there is another point, and the most important point, which is the distance measurement, providing the necessary technical parameters for the distance measurement of our B3 and the two previous B-class cruisers with a standard displacement of more than 5,200 tons.
The two cruisers used as 'bait' were taken by Ye Chen, deputy commander of the East China Sea Fleet, who took the initiative to lead the team.
It is worth mentioning that the Empire's B-class cruisers were different from the cruisers of any country in the world at that time.
This type of B-class cruiser is a ship designed under the leadership of Zhou Yu! It has a large open space at the bow of the ship. It has no weapons, and I don’t know what it is used for!
Moreover, this type of ship does not have many artillery guns on the body. There are only 6 main guns (305 mm) with a diameter of 35 times, and the secondary guns are 12 76 mm rapid-fire guns.
Its speed reached a terrifying 30 knots, which was incredible at the time!
At the highest level of the Chinese Empire, only a few people know that those open spaces are reserved for seaplanes and future new technologies - helicopters; and those rapid-fire cannons are for future torpedo and air defense purposes.
of.
Zhou Yu is designing a warship at a higher level. He does not want to involve the Chinese Empire in the future world arms race.
The firing of the B3 Dreadnought Battleship made the little Japanese artillerymen not know where to point their muzzles. They were very confused, standing on the gun position, not knowing what to do!
20 super large and powerful super incendiary bombs dropped and exploded near the enemy ship, the Akitsusu ironclad.
Because they were on the move and because they were too far apart, in the first round of range-finding bombs, only one bomb exploded on the enemy ship's hull, and all the others fell into the sea.
The shell that hit the enemy ship hit the enemy ship's mizzen mast where the plaster was hanging. The force of the explosion caused the mast where the little devil was hanging the plaster flag to collapse immediately.
The mast area was almost completely flattened by the force of the bomb explosion.
After the explosion, there was a terrible fire that devoured everything!
Compared with the so-called potent Shimase gunpowder of the Little Devil, its power is simply dwarfed by the gunpowder of the Chinese Empire, and is not worth mentioning!….
Firefighting! (Firefighting)
Who will save me? (Who will save me)
Help! (Help)
My body is on fire! (My body is on fire)
My legs are gone! (My legs are gone)
Why can't I run? (Why can't I run?)
ああ!(ah)
All of a sudden, the little devil's deck was filled with the sounds of howling ghosts and wolves, the sounds of hasty escapes, the sounds of struggles and howls, and the blaring of alarm bells!
However, the little devil has not yet recovered from the shock. The second batch of shells has arrived again. This time, not only are there shells from the B3 Dreadnought Battleship, but there are also two B-class cruisers led by Ye Chen.
of cannonballs.
Within 5,000 meters, there were parameters transmitted by Deng Shichang. Ye Chen, who had been partnering with Deng Shichang for several years, was another outstanding naval wizard in the empire. He grasped this perfect coordination very well.
Chance.
He also ordered to fire on the enemy ships!
There is a reason why the three warships of the Empire dare to fire while in motion without fear of affecting the speed of their own warships. That is because the anti-recoil technology of the Empire's artillery has entered into use.
A double-sided attack would be a catastrophic blow to the newly launched Japanese warship Akijinsu.
The little Japanese warship has just moved a little bit. Relatively speaking, it is Deng Shichang's immobile target ship. So, the hit rate is surprisingly high, as expected.
Within this distance, Deng Shichang and his three ships had a total of 22 main guns and 32 large artillery shells. Seven of the shells hit the enemy ship, and the destructive power caused was fatal.
Two of the cannonballs fired by Ye Chen and his two warships hit the rear of the enemy ship; while the cannonballs fired by Deng Shichang's B3 battleship hit as many as 5 of the enemy ships, and 3 of them hit the enemy ship's stern.
In the middle of the large chimney, 2 missiles hit the bow of the enemy ship.
Putting aside the explosive power of the shells, the fire and poisonous gas generated by the explosion of the shells alone is enough for a little devil to drink a pot.
The enemy ship that had just moved, the ironclad Akitsusu, was hit by an incendiary bomb in the middle, damaging the middle part, causing both large chimneys to collapse, and the enemy ship with damaged power could no longer run.
However, at this moment, the so-called bushido spirit of the little devil made the little devil determined to fight to the death.
The little Japanese artilleryman howled like a ghost: "cannonballs", "I want cannonballs"
Finally, a bomb loader sent the shells into the cannon chamber of the Little Japanese. Sparsely, the Little Japanese artilleryman fired cannonballs at the two nearest warships, Ye Chen and his two.
At this time, the warships of both sides were already quite close to each other. Two of the shells fired by the Little Japanese artillery that had been aimed at Ye Chen and their two warships hit a B-class cruiser.
The bow part of the ship.
The little devil's bomb is indeed as legendary. It is easy to explode and ignite high-temperature fires, and it can also produce yellow poisonous gas.
However, the imperial soldiers who had been prepared for this calmly used high-pressure fire extinguishing equipment and sprayed a special fire-extinguishing material, and the fire was quickly extinguished.
And the soldiers of the Imperial Navy have long been wearing anti-gas pig mouth masks. The poison gas has no effect on everyone.
The little Japanese's desperate counterattack made the soldiers on the three imperial warships angry, and even made Ye Chen and Deng Shichang extremely angry.
At this time, the three imperial warships were already quite close to the Little Japanese warship. In fact, the two B-class cruisers led by Ye Chen all turned their rudders and prepared to avoid them.
At this distance, the other small-caliber rapid-fire guns on the three warships can be put to use.
Under the orders of Deng Shichang and Ye Chen, all the artillery of the three ships were fired!
Still an incendiary bomb, an incendiary bomb that burns everything!
