The sea breeze was howling, and the black smoke in the distance was turning the entire sky black. From time to time, you can still see the huge fire from the muzzle.

The soldiers at the lookout post had already reported the model number to Li He. It was the Beiyang sailor who had been searching for a long time who had been searching for a long time.

Wipe the sweat from your face that was frightened. Li He held up the telescope.

He was not afraid of the Japanese fleet, but he was afraid that Liu Jun would not return to the conning tower, but fortunately, Liu Jun consciously ran into the conning tower.

"Full speed ahead. When you reach the range, hit Matsushima first. Li He put down the telescope in his hand. Looking at the United Fleet, which was entangled with the Beiyang Naval Division, he let out a cold snort.

After the Beiyang Naval Division broke through under the command of Ding Ruchang, it advanced all the way because the lights were out, and it was not discovered by the pursuing Combined Fleet.

However, at dawn, such luck was impossible, and the Yoshino, which was at the forefront of the Combined Fleet, was the first to spot the main force of the Beiyang Naval Division that was fleeing north, and raised the battle alarm.

The bleak sirens thrilled Ito on the Matsushima.

Ito, who has always been full of anger, is full of remorse and anger when he sees that he has not seen the Beiyang Naval Division all the way.

I didn't expect that the Beiyang Naval Division would be besieged by myself for so long, and I would break through under such circumstances without me noticing it at all. This is simply a slap in the face of the combined fleet, and even more so a slap in the face of oneself.

After a night of pursuit, without the slightest discovery, Ito Yuheng was full of helplessness, and he was very unwilling to escape from the Beiyang Naval Division, but the battle alarm of the Yoshino made him ecstatic with a hint of helplessness.

Now the Beiyang Naval Division is going north, and the pursuit cannot give full play to the rapid-fire artillery fire on the side of the pursuing ship, and the only thing that can be used is the main gun.

With a bang, at 6:40 in the morning, the tail gun of Dingyuan took the lead in firing the first shot of the breakthrough.

Ten minutes later, Yoshino, the closest to the Hokuyo Naval Division of the Combined Fleet, began to return fire with its main guns.

The two sides immediately fought in the Yellow Sea.

The surface of the Yellow Sea suddenly shook the sky, and the surface of the sea was like boiling water, filled with the smell of gunsmoke.

When Liu Jun and Li He discovered the Beiyang Naval Division, the naval battle had been going on for nearly two hours.

Just half an hour ago, the fast-moving Combined Fleet was on a par with the Beiyang Naval Division, and launched an artillery bombardment from above at a distance of 3,000 meters.

The advantages of the combined fleet were brought into full play.

The rapid-fire guns on the side of the ship overwhelmingly smashed in front of the Beiyang Naval Division, and the Beiyang Naval Division could only counterattack with a few pitiful rapid-fire guns and the main guns on the bow.

However, this could not stop the Japanese artillery fire in the slightest, and in less than ten minutes, the Jingyuan was hit and the whole ship burst into flames...... The main gun was blown up, and he had to retreat to the rear of Dingyuan. Let the heavy armor of the Dingyuan ship block the artillery fire.

Because the Dingyuan ship was an important target of attack by the Combined Fleet, it was not only beaten to the point of being on fire, but even the signal flag was blown away.

"Li He, what is the flagship signal flag?" Liu Jun looked at it for a long time, and found the yellow dragon flags of each ship, but he didn't see other flags.

Li He noticed this at this time, looked at it, and his face turned pale: "Dashuai, the signal flag and flagship command of the Beiyang Naval Division have been blown up." ”

"What, what the hell is it, it's blown up, if this is broken, then who commands."

"There is no one to command, so we have to fight on our own." Li and Li He looked at Liu Jun.

They fight on their own, and they can't get command, and they don't have command. Today, the Beiyang Naval Division is inescapable, and such a thing must not be allowed to develop, Liu Jun thought of this. looked at Li He, who was standing in front of him in a daze: "Go and hang the command flag, now you come to be the flagship and command the battle." ”

Li He looked surprised, and looked at Liu Jun dumbfounded: "Dashuai, this is not suitable......

"There's nothing inappropriate, if you come to Lao Tzu's territory, you have to listen to me, Lao Tzu said that you are suitable, it is suitable?" Liu Jun waved his hand aggressively.

"Military Gate, Hashitachi." Lin Tai once pointed to the Hashitachi number in front of him who was rushing to this side and was surprised, and then said; "They hung up the flagship."

Ding Ruchang was looking at the combined fleet on the side of the bridge, and when he saw Lin Tai say this, he hurriedly raised his binoculars and looked at the opposite side of the bow.

Sure enough, the bridge on the opposite side had already hoisted the signal flag and waved the flag. Let the ships of the sailors obey the order.

"Junmen, Li He is also ......" Lin Tai was a little angry, a small garrison actually wanted to command the Beiyang Naval Division.

Ding Ruchang stopped Lin Taizeng's words: "Follow the actions that Hashitachi said." ”

Li He's intention was very clear, let the Jingyuan, which had been seriously wounded, withdraw from the battle, and the rest of the ships would entangle the combined fleet so that the Hashidate could rush in and attack.

As soon as the Beiyang Naval Division, which had already fallen into chaos, saw that the Hashidate had hung up the signal flag, the ships of the Beiyang Naval Division, which had long since not known how to fight, suddenly had a backbone, and according to the orders of the Hashidate, they began to concentrate their firepower and send shells to the nearest and most arrogant Yoshino.

Boom, the 320-mm main gun of the Hashidate once again let out a rage and smashed it at Yoshino, who was firing at the Dingyuan three kilometers away.

Hey, Liu Jun threw down the binoculars, looked at Li He, and said viciously: "Paralyzed, five shells, one missed, what the hell do you usually train you?" ”

Li He can't say if he is bitter, he is dumb and eats Coptis chinensis, and the sailors on the Qiaoli are all veterans on the Pingyuan, so the training is not covered, the problem is that this kind of hydraulic artillery, the sailors are not very familiar with it at all, and more importantly, Yoshino on the opposite side is also running too fast, and the shells fired according to the ruler are useless.

"Dashuai, this me."

"Jump explained, I'll open your eyes today, what is a hundred shots." After Liu Jun finished speaking, he quickly took off his cloak and threw it to the conning tower, and then opened the door of the conning tower. He turned around and walked out.

"Where are you going, Dashuai," Li He hurriedly chased out.

Liu Jun's magnetic voice came from the distance of the "fort".

As soon as the busy officers and soldiers saw Liu Jun, they all put down their work and looked at Liu Jun in surprise, not knowing what he was going to do.

Liu Jun took a closer look at the small space of the fort, saw the location of the measuring instruments, walked straight over, and said to the surveyors who were standing there in the clouds: "Give it to me." ”

A gentle and resolute sentence without any accusation not only surprised the gunners, but also made Li He, who was standing outside the fort door, open his mouth wide, and asked himself in his heart: "The marshal still understands this?" ”

Without looking at the surprised eyes of others, Liu Jun looked at Yoshino, who was driving at high speed three thousand meters away, and then looked at Li He, who was standing outside the door, tilted his head and asked, "Where is the weakest part of the warship?" ”

Ah, Li He was taken aback by Liu Jun's words, and then said dementedly: "The biggest power of a warship is the engine, that is, in the middle, under the chimney, and above the waterline. ”

"A bunch of nonsense, just tell Lao Tzu in the middle." Liu Jun muttered dissatisfiedly, then turned around, picked up the measuring instrument and began to observe and report the data.

"Distance 3200." Liu Jun pouted his ass and reported the distance, then closed his eyes and calculated, and began to report the data again. "Gun displacement three, high angle nineteen"

After this set of data, Li He hurriedly walked over: "Dashuai, this data can't beat Yoshino." ”

The data reported by Liu Jun has deviated from Yoshino by more than ten meters, and in the eyes of Li He and other sailors, this is simply a cannonball in vain.

"Armor-piercing blasters." Liu Jun ignored Li He's advice, but gave a serious order.

Li He saw that Liu Jun was so persistent, and there was no way, after all, Liu Jun was the biggest one, but let everyone listen to Liu Jun's orders and wave his hand to let the sailors load the shells.

"One round of armored blasting shells, reloaded." The gunner's voice echoed in the small space.

Hearing that the shell was loaded, Liu Jun showed a contemptuous smile, and then scolded: "**** your grandma, you go to die." Turning his head fiercely, Liu Jun raised his voice and roared out two words from his chest: "Open the cannon." ”

Boom, there was a loud bang, and after a burst of white smoke, everyone stared intently at Yoshino in the distance, motionless.

Can you hit it? Li He looked at Liu Jun, who was sitting there playing with the measuring instrument, and then moved his gaze to Yoshino in the distance.

The fort seemed to freeze in the air, and everyone didn't even blink their eyes, and they all looked at Yoshino, who was firing at Dingyuan.

There was a loud bang, and then a burst of fire, and everyone in the fort was almost frightened by the terrible sound.

I saw that three thousand meters away, on the lower deck of Yoshino Yoshino, burst out with a burst of fire, and then there were explosions one after another, and it was clearly seen that the 120 mm rapid-fire guns on the side of the ship were lifted into the sky, and then smashed heavily into the sea.

"Dashuai is not a human being, is he?" A sailor looks at the Yoshino, which is exploding. Surprised, he uttered these words of praise from his mouth.

"Yes, yes," several sailors hurriedly shouted in unison.

This, why did he praise Lao Tzu so much, Liu Jun's face was full of black lines.

It seemed that everyone had come back to their senses, and hurriedly added: "It's not a person, it's a god, and he actually said that where to fight." ”

This is still human talk, Liu Jun burst into tears and laughed, then stood up, stretched out his head to look at Yoshino, who was still exploding sporadically, looked at the sailors who were still there in a daze, and said with a smile: "Look at what." After two cannons, Lao Tzu sent him to the west today. ”

"Okay." Everyone returned to their respective gun positions with smiles on their faces. Wait for Liu Jun's data.

"Distance 3100, gun displacement two, high angle twenty." A series of data came out of Liu Jun's mouth again.

This time, no one hesitated, all of them were rapidly rotating the turret, loading the shells.
