Chapter 961: Counter-Battle
Under the blue sea and blue sky, seventy warships are sailing on the sea.
On the mast of the battleship, the flags of three different countries were hunting and sounding in the sea breeze.
On the British flagship, a general in a black naval dovetail uniform was using a telescope to observe a battleship emitting black smoke in front of him.
Not long ago, they had encountered this warship, and immediately the warship began to flee in the direction of Dengzhou, the kingdom of Chongqing, and soon left them behind.
"Is this the new warship of the Great Yu Kingdom? Shocking indeed. Wilson lowered his binoculars and furrowed deeply.
Hearing this, the middle-aged Congressman Dick beside him, he said: "I have to say that this time the House of Representatives made a stupid decision, what to do now, obviously, we have been discovered, if the number of such warships in the Great Chongqing Kingdom is enough, we will have no way to escape, and we will be sunk by them one by one." ”
"Don't be so pessimistic about Dick, this time we're using new shells that will send them to hell." Wilson was confident in the strength of the current fleet.
Just last month, Britain sent a new batch of artillery shells, and after the experiment, his confidence has increased considerably, and he believes that the British warships can defeat the Great Chongqing fleet with their rich experience in the same weapon engagement.
"It's just that they also have the kind of shells that can send us to hell." Dick was not as optimistic as Wilson, who had been involved in the attack as soon as he arrived in India from England.
In order to destroy the naval power of the Great Chongqing Kingdom in one fell swoop, Queen Vidomia even ceded some of her South American colonies to Spain in exchange for their support.
The reason why Vidomia and the House of Representatives would rather pay such a price to destroy the fleet of the Great Chongqing State was because of their fear of the Great Chongqing State.
After discussion in the House of Representatives, they finally decided to launch this dangerous operation, because as long as the navy of the Great Chongqing State was destroyed or severely damaged, the Great Chongqing State would not be able to colonize overseas, and at the same time, it would not be able to attack Europe in a short period of time.
In this way, they had valuable time to absorb the technology of the Great Chongqing Kingdom, and for this reason, Vidomia even met with the president of the secret society, asking all the technical personnel in the society to participate in the study of the actual technology they had acquired.
Wilson frowned, "Dick, did they send you here to say something discouraged?" The warships of the Great Chongqing Kingdom have already appeared in Europe along with the merchant ships of the Dutch, which is intolerable to us, understand? Otherwise, why do you think the French are willing to cooperate with us, this is our interest in Asia, and the Great Chongqing State cannot arbitrarily destroy everything we have built up in the past hundred years. “
"I'm sorry, I'm just telling the truth, but I'm not afraid, it's always been my belief to destroy the enemies of Britain and pay with my life for it, but this time I'm not here for the sake of war, if we can't win, we have to try to destroy their shipyards, seize their warships, and even take some workers, instead of simply going to die." Dick said.
Wilson looked at Dick, calmed down, and said, "I'm not a fool, I'm going to be improvised." ”
"It's for the best." Dick looked northwest, and in the distance, they could already see the outline of Dengzhou City.
At the same time, the warships of the Great Yu Kingdom, which were in front of the combined fleet, were heading towards the Dengzhou Military Port at full speed, and Yue Yun took most of the warships with him when he headed south.
Today, there are only twenty-four warships docked in the military port, including one Jumbo first-class sail battleship, two second class large sail ships, nine third class warships and twelve hybrid warships.
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
In the boiler room of the battleship, the soldiers are sending coal into the bottom of the boiler with all their might, and under the heat of the flame, the steam enters the steam engine along the pipe and drives the propeller to rotate non-stop.
Under the strong power, the battleship quickly shuttled through the sea.
On the deck, Levi and his lieutenant were staring at the huge fleet that had been left behind, and at this time, the two of them looked solemn and frowned.
"There are a total of seventy ships, and they came to Dengzhou this time because they are definitely not good, and it is likely that they took the opportunity to sneak attack our military port, but it is a pity that they did not escape the search of our routine patrol in the end." The adjutant groaned.
"Britain, France, Spain, these are all the current powers of the West, it seems that in order to prevent the rise of the Great Chongqing Kingdom, they are crazy." Levi stared fiercely at the group of warships that were chasing them.
"They are probably desperate this time, or if they destroy their navy in Asia, our navy of the Great Chongqing State will have no opponent in the South Seas."
"That's right, since they are here, this time we will have a good time with them, even if there is only one warship in the Great Chongqing Navy, we will fight to the end."
Levi said firmly.
As the two spoke, the speed of the battleship increased significantly, and an hour later, they arrived at the military port, while the Combined Fleet still had half an hour to go.
After an emergency stop at the dock, Levi immediately sent an adjutant to ring the warning bell on the pier.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The rapid sound of the bell resounded throughout the military port, and the soldiers of the Great Yu State who heard this sound quickly rushed out of the barracks and headed straight for their respective warships.
At the same time, the flag speaker transmits information to other warships on the mast through the flag language.
The soldiers quickly understood what was going on?
"British!"
Xie Yuan and Ding Chang looked surprised after reading the flag.
"Great, last time we were attacked by these grandsons at sea and almost sank, and now we can finally get revenge." There was a hint of madness in Xie Yuan's eyes.
He was shot black by the British in that thick fog, and he always remembered it as humiliation.
Originally, he was a little unhappy for Yue Yun to let him stay in the military port, but now the haze in his heart suddenly dissipated, and he said to Ding Chang: "Let all the coastal defense soldiers enter the fort, and the battleships get out of the way to see if they have come in." ”
"Yes." Ding Chang immediately asked the soldiers to play the flag.
The soldiers who received the order quickly entered the batteries in the curved bay, which were all made of reinforced concrete, and the batteries were not in the shape of the open air, but the domed fortresses, and the outer walls of the fortresses were reserved for hollow places, through which the guns were aimed at the harbor.
In the fortress, boxes of shells are neatly placed, and there are enough shells to deal with emergencies.
Watching the soldiers quickly enter the fort, Xie Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, he had already made all the sail battleships put in a firing posture, and the remaining twelve hybrid warships were ordered by him to go out of the harbor to find opportunities to destroy the enemy warships with power superiority.
