Tsukizu Tsukii was extremely calm. The more he was in such a crisis, the better his mind was.

There are only six in front of us, and they are undoubtedly the main force. So are the other warships abandoned? Also, the guys hiding in the dark... Damn, they must have known our location and formation long ago! The rest must have been ambushed in front!

"Damn it! Let all warships speed up with all their might, turn left to avoid the rudder, and danger ahead..."

Before he finished speaking, the 152mm secondary cannon of the "Jingyuan" made another hole on the right side of its hull. The violent collision and the rupture of steel made people feel fear of being crushed!

This is a trap, a huge trap! The other party is not only very familiar with their location, but also has a precise distance of kilometers! Such a calculation is so terrifying that it is hopeless.

Hirozo Tsui suddenly remembered the hateful ghost ship. The damn Yang family armed cargo ship, maybe they were helping to work in it. There was a big reason for the loss of this battle because it was because it was eaten by them!

He made the best command plan he could give, but the course of the battle situation was still sliding towards the worst direction!

The warships of this era have to work hard to turn a corner, and their speed is even slower. As soon as the cannon sounds in front, the two ships "Sina Speed" and "Akizushi" behind have not made any maneuvering changes.

"Akitsu" running in third place was accurate by "Zhiyuan". A 210mm armor-piercing projectile was smashed into the swell of the hull and penetrated through the power compartment, destroying a boiler before stopping.

Another secondary artillery shell hit the stern, overturning an open turret, killing three sailors inside, but did not cause an explosion.

The leader Deng Shichang was really looking at it, and he couldn't help but shouted, "It's a pity!" If he had a flower bullet with great power, these two cannons could crippled the other party!

The problem is that there are not so many ifs in the world. There are too many innate defects, and it cannot be compensated by rushing. He can only command the warships, load the shells as fast as possible, and prepare for the next strike!

However, whether it is him or the "Jingyuan" on the other side, the main gun is loading speed is too slow! Even if the two 152mm cannons are at least one shot at a minute. If you can be like the Japanese rapid-fire cannons, this encounter will cause heavy casualties and injuries to the other party!

Anyway, this is the best attack moment the Beiyang Fleet can find.

The first "Dingyuan Ship" to fire immediately gave "Xin Gao Qianho" a secondary gun. After killing one of its secondary guns, the three guns hurriedly loaded them again.

The two cannons on the right were silent for a little while, and then they started one after another!

These two guns are also high-explosive grenades, because they are fired one after another. A terrible explosion hit the commander tower immediately took the commanders inside!

Another shell exploded a 6-inch rapid-fire gun turret on the side to pieces, and the ammunition rack exploded, tearing out half of the hull out a large hole that reached the waterline!

"Xintao Chiho" has just entered service and has not even shot a shell and is seriously injured!

The disaster is not over yet! The "Yingyuan" that was slightly behind, the two ships "Laiyuan" were considered to be cheap. Their double front main guns and forward secondary guns fired one after another, hitting the semi-destructive "Gao Qiansui" one by one, one by one, and two solid transparent holes opened up. In particular, a 210mm shell penetrated from the rear, breaking a spindle, causing one of its propellers to lose their function. It is impossible to escape with speed.

Coupled with the major damage to the bow, the "New Taxochiho" leaking everywhere was crooked and looked like it was sinking!

Within one minute, six warships opened fire one after another! At the fastest speed, they fired all pre-loaded shells at the four Japanese ships, causing all four Japanese ships to be injured!

For Tsukisu and all the Japanese army, this is an unprecedented black minute and a terrifying minute. Or according to the Japanese convention, it is more appropriate to call it "Devil One Minute".

The Yoshino alone was hit by six shells from two warships from beginning to end, and was blown to smoke and flooding holes. Although the commander tower and the main gun were still alive, more than half of the artillery fire on one side were destroyed. The violent explosion caused too much shaking, and it was too late to fight back.

The continuous explosions and deafening roars in the rear made him, the commander known for his wisdom, confused, and it was difficult to make more correct decisions!

But this is not the end, it is just the beginning of the disaster!

Because before, both he and the chief of staff of the fleet firmly demanded the implementation of the tactics of the Yizi Column. The synthesis training these days has led to the fleet maintaining the order without any doubt. During the current low-speed navigation, the four warships could not make any evasive moves and were bombarded from beginning to end!

After a minute, the Yoshino-Host ran through the positive direction of "Zhenyuan" and came to the front of "Jingyuan", and was hit again by a 152mm armor-piercing projectile loaded at the fastest speed!

What's so bad is that this gun destroyed another side main gun, and the counterattack firepower was gone.

After a while, another shell on the other side was ready. With the stable course, it pushed forward several hundred meters, and a thunderbolt shot, blasted through the stern, and actually injured one of the rudders!

It’s extremely unlucky, nothing is worse than this.

But the most unlucky "Xingao Qiansui" was then shot into a transparent hole by the former main gun of "Zhenyuan", which was even more injured. When he ran to "Jingyuan" under inertia, he was already full of fire and he didn't even need to repair the gun.

The third-ranked "Akizushi" began to move a little left steer, but it was not easy to avoid the twelve groups of ships rushing straight towards them. In just one minute, the opponent's deputy guns were filled, and two holes were opened again. Although it was not fatal, it kept colliding and damaged again and again, making it unable to counterattack.

Captain Hikonozen Uemura was a decisive guy. Seeing that the unlucky guy "Takachiho" in front of him was injured like that, he decisively ordered him to use him as a shield and let himself escape first--the warship was obviously beyond help, so it would be better to play a little shielding role.

But want to run? It's not that easy! The main gun of "Dingyuan" has just been filled, and the two doors on the right are locked in a diagonally, and they are leaving it for him.

With three minutes of loading work, Liu Buchan is facing the danger of being retaliated at any time. He lay in front of the commander tower, hoping to go up and help fight the shells! But I can only think about it. The large iron lump of more than 300 kilograms can only be assisted by machines, and you have to endure it no matter how slow it is.

He kept slapping his thighs: "What a pity! What a pity! If the speed can be half faster, just half of it! I can clean up all these enemy ships!"

Finally, the two hairs were installed, and "Akitsushi" had turned left and opened a little distance, almost hiding behind the crooked "Xingao Chiho". Two 305mm cannons fired!

"Boom"!

Hiroyuki Uemura felt the hull tremble suddenly, and he couldn't help but hit the wall, and the blazing flash made his mind blank!

The shell of the commander tower was smashed by the storm, as if it was about to shatter at any time. When he turned around, he suddenly found that the mast behind the warship was blown up, and the surging flames swept forward from behind, almost spreading the entire hull.

This gun was blasted in from one side of the hull close to the inter-deck layer, and the explosion destroyed all directions, not only destroying the rear mast, destroying a cannon, but also tearing a terrible hole, and causing the number of casualties. It is impossible to calculate at the moment!

The last "Sina Speed" is the luckiest guy. Due to the position, it did not take a single shot until all six battleships fired, and it was also the first to start left-facing maneuvering. When it approached the attack line, Dingyuan and Zhiyuan's main guns had not been filled yet, so they could only use the secondary gun to launch a bombardment.

Two armor-piercing bullets, but two holes were made, and the damage was not serious. When we arrived directly in front, the main gun on the right side of "Dingyuan" was reloaded again, but it was not completed, so we were lucky to dodge it.

However, at this time, "Jingyuan" and "Laiyuan" completed reinstallation. The main gun and the secondary gun fired together. Eight shells hit him one after another, and three more waterline holes were opened. One of his chimneys was blown up, a rapid-fire gun turret was destroyed, and the commander tower was hit with a 152mm armor-piercing bomb.

Fortunately, it passed from above and did not cause much damage, but it also scared the Chilean mercenary officers!

However, just when they thought the most terrible disaster had passed, a new fire suddenly popped up ahead! (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
