Chapter 1079: Blockade (Page 1/1)

"There is no mistake in the intelligence, the Chinese Empire really has muskets capable of firing continuously, which is terrible."

On the deck, Cobansey was also keeping an eye on the Imperial fleet, and his heart sank when he noticed the continuous strafing of weapons on the deck.

"The Chinese Empire is terrible, as long as they have this weapon in their hands, we can only be slaughtered on the battlefield." Filmin said in a deep voice.

Kebansi nodded, "That's why we have to get their advanced weapons at all costs and send them to China for imitation." ”

As he was talking, he suddenly noticed that the lights of the flagship of the Imperial Fleet had suddenly gone out, and he said happily: "Great, their commander is on this warship, let the soldiers focus on attacking this battleship, as long as their flagship is captured, they will definitely be in chaos." ”

Filin also saw it at this time, and he glanced at Cobancy with some admiration, the famous Spanish naval admiral who deserved to be called the sea fortress of Spain.

In the face of such a disadvantage, they are still fighting equally, which is already very rare.

"All gunners attack the sixth battleship from the left to the southwest!" Film gave the order.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

A volley of bullets was fired out of the air after the order was given, and one after another of the flowering bombs headed straight for the ironclad ship Sovereign.

At the same time, the other warships successively focused their firepower on the ironclad of the Sovereign, and under the cover of the battleship's gunfire, the small ships in the sea quickly approached the Sovereign.

A sneer tugged at the corners of his mouth as he looked at this scene, and then his gaze fell on an ironclad ship to the southeast, which was on the edge of the Imperial fleet.

He said: "Immediately send soldiers to attack the first battleship on the right, and now that the enemy's flagship is besieged by us, the other battleships will definitely rush to relieve the siege and ignore the battleship on the edge and take that ironclad ship!" ”

"What a trick!" Filming said excitedly, and he asked the herald with the lantern to give another command at the edge of the deck, allowing some of the boats to approach the east side.

On the Sovereign, the Marines suffered constant casualties under enemy shelling, and after the searchlights went out, it seemed that all the enemy's artillery fire was concentrated on the Sovereign, and from time to time there were enemy shells thrown on the deck.

The dense attack cost the marines on the battleship heavy losses.

"General, it's too dangerous here, you must go back to the cabin." Liu Chen said to Yue Yun, the Monarch is the core of the ironclad ship, and Yue Yun is the core of the Monarch, once Yue Yun has an accident, even if this naval battle is won, it will be equivalent to a fiasco.

Yue Yun's expression was cold, and he said: "I thought that as soon as the ironclad ship came out, the Qingzhou fleet would be able to run rampant from now on, but this naval battle really taught us a lesson, the emperor is right, strategically we must despise the enemy, but strategically we must pay attention to the enemy." ”

After that, he said to Liu Chen: "Ordering the King to turn around and use the movement advantage of the steam engine battleship to annihilate the enemy warship, we can't be too big, this kind of outnumbered shooting, we will suffer a lot." “

While the two were talking, the soldier brought up the spare searchlight, and after some installation, the searchlight came back on.

Liu Chen looked at the more than sixty sail warships burning on the sea, although the enemy's wooden ships were approaching them, the enemy's losses in this kind of shelling were also very heavy, after all, relatively speaking, the bearing capacity of ironclad ships was much more powerful than that of wooden sail warships.

Nodding, he immediately asked the searchlight to give the command to change the formation of the fleet, and this time they would annihilate the enemy's ships while sailing.

And let the little wooden boats float in the sea.

As soon as the order was given, the ironclad group set sail again, taking advantage of their speed, they kept a distance from the small wooden boats, but remained within range of the machine guns.

This kite-like style of play quickly exhausted the soldiers on the small boat, and the steam engine battleships relied on the power of the steam engine, while they relied on manpower.

Kebansey's face turned down after noticing the change in the Imperial fleet, because it was a sneak attack, and the Imperial warships were all anchored at the beginning, which was conducive to their approach.

But now their commanders were clearly aware of the problem, and the ships set sail.

And the most hateful thing is that although these ironclad ships seem to be bulky, they are not slow, if they are sail warships, their small ships can still catch up, but these steel monsters run too fast, and the small ships cannot catch up with them at all, but they are hung and beaten.

Filin's excited look also disappeared, and they were now in a very embarrassing situation, which was that they could only be beaten, not fought back.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Moving ironclads are constantly firing at the Sail Battleship, rotating the turret allowing them to attack enemies in any direction.

"Sixty-five, seventy, eighty ......" Every enemy warship hit, Liu Chen would report to Yue Yun the number.

Freed from the entanglement of the boats, their attack seemed to be at ease, and the balance of war was once again tipped in their favor.

"Don't let go of a single one, send ten warships to bypass from the flanks and block the mouth of the Ganges." Yue Yun said.

His order was given, and ten ironclads broke away from the group and headed straight for the Ganges.

The movement of the Imperial Fleet was watched by Kebansi, and he slowly lowered the binoculars, he sighed heavily, "It's not that I don't command effectively, but the ironclad ships of the Imperial Fleet are too strong, and if we don't have ironclad ships, the era of Europe's dominance of the seas will probably be gone forever." ”

Although Fei Lin was extremely unwilling, he could only choose to bow his head in the face of the eighty sail warships burning in the sea, and he understood what Kebanxi meant.

"Retreat!" Cobansi gave the final order, the attack of the Imperial warships did not stop, their fleet was still losing, once the mouth of the Ganges was blocked by the Imperial warships, they would have no escape, relying on the speed of the ironclad ships they would be sunk one by one.

"Yes." Filin's voice trembled a little.

This order was cruel, because it meant that they would abandon the soldiers who were in small boats at sea, but he could not fail to carry it out, and it would be better to keep some of the ships for future use than to destroy them all.

Thinking of this, he gave the herald the order to retreat, an order that the captains of the seventy remaining warships had been waiting for for a long time, and now they were desperate to sail towards the mouth of the Ganges.

On the Sovereign, Yue Yun showed a victorious smile, for him, the remaining battleships were not enough to be a thing, after this war, India's route to Europe was decided by the Imperial Navy.

Even if they take refuge in the Ganges, they will not be able to escape their grasp.

"Starting tomorrow, warships will cruise along the Indian coastline in groups of three, sinking any supply ships from Europe."
