The artillery shells of the Imperial Chinese Navy have the armor-piercing ability of armor-piercing bombs and also have the destructive power of blasting bombs.

Captain Shuiyang and his men did not have time to think about it, because in less than half a minute, the Heyue heavy cruiser began its fifth fire volley, and they were stunned again.

This is a volley of 9 artillery pieces!

This is too fast!

You should know that the most elite British naval artillery must use more than a dozen artillery fires to calculate the ballistic that can fire volleys. The Heyue ship opposite was fire volleys from the beginning, and the fourth hit rate was more than half. I thought this was a fool, but in less than half a minute, the fifth fire volley followed.

Bang bang bang bang! Bang bang bang bang bang!

All bomb hits!

Nine 203mm armor-piercing blasting bombs hit the Algae at the same time, instantly blowing the Algae out of recognition. The entire superstructure was in a sea of ​​fire, with black smoke rolling, reaching thousands of meters high.

One of the shells caused fatal penetration damage, piercing through the port waterline belt of the Water Algae, instantly exploded with a gap of more than 30 centimeters. Black smoke and fire spewed out a column of smoke more than ten meters long from the gap, and then the sea water poured violently backwards, causing the hull to tilt rapidly.

For a warship of 1,500 tons, if it is just a 30-centimeter gap, it will not sink easily. But the problem lies in the design of the Algae. The boat resists cannons. Once the hull enters water, it will lose balance instantly. You must immediately pour water on the other side to maintain balance. Unfortunately, the warship overturned before it had time.

The three Viking Pirate Frigates behind were immediately frightened. They had not yet evaluated the combat power of the Homochi ship, but they were just a cruise ship with a larger tonnage. Even if they couldn't beat it, they could last at least one or two hours.

But now I realized that the Heyue ship was too cruel. It only took less than five minutes to fight. Five fire volleys sank the Algae. This combat power is too powerful!

Run quickly!

The three pirate frigates dared not show off, so they quickly turned around and planned to escape.

At the same time, black smoke suddenly emerged from the four chimneys of the Heyue ship, and the entire warship quickly accelerated to 30 knots, chasing three pirate frigates.

The Vikings looked back and were immediately scared.

This is a ghost!

Just a cruise ship, how could it run faster than a frigate?

"Farke! We were cheated by James's watch!"

That's right, they came to hook up with the Moon and Moon ships under the order of James. The original plan was to restrain or lead the Moon and Moon ships, and then other pirate warships took the opportunity to attack the ship and destroy the Heron by the way.

The pirates felt that this mission was not at all risk, but now they found that it was too dangerous and it was simply deadly!

If this is caught up by the Heyue Ship, it will be killed in minutes!

After all, the three pirate frigates were once British sailors, with rich experience, and quickly divided into three parts and fled in three different directions.

Sure enough, the Homochi ship could only chase one of them and let the other two go.

Twenty minutes later, the Homochi ship caught up with the Nitero frigate, and sank Nitero with just three volleys, and then quickly returned to the regiment.

Similarly, on the other side of the regiment, the Kuritsuki ship also encountered a pirate cruiser and four pirate frigates at the same time.

The result was the same. Under the brutal firepower of the Guiyue Ship, the pirate cruiser Sheffield was first sunk, and then the other four pirate frigates were scared away. However, the Guiyue Ship did not pursue it, but guarded near the convoy. Obviously, the Captain of the Guiyue Ship was more cautious than the Captain of the Heyue Ship.

An hour later, James led the main fleet of the pirates' regiment to arrive near a sea area near an isolated island on the east side of the Dutch East Indies.

Originally, James sent two pirate squadrons to harass the fleet, and it would be best to lead the two most powerful heavy cruisers in the fleet escort formation, so that James would have enough time to surround the Heron destroyer and then destroy the entire fleet.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. Before James could prepare, bad news came back. The two cruise ships and seven frigates sent were sent, but only six frigates escaped. Both cruise ships and one frigate were sunk.

Ah puff!

James almost squirted out old blood in anger!
Chapter completed!
