Yoshino Yoshino is now in thick smoke, and the captain of the ship, Kawachi Yoichi, has now turned the color of pig liver, how could he never have thought that Hashidate, three thousand meters away, actually had a blind cat that ran into a dead mouse and hit Yoshino's boiler room at once, and then there was an explosion inside, and the boiling steam scalded more than a dozen officers and soldiers on the spot, not to mention, and also triggered the ammunition depot.

He also hated himself, just now he was bent on sinking Dingyuan, which had already ignited a raging fire, and he didn't notice the bridge number on Dingyuan's side, and now, his heart is like a knife. If something happens to Yoshino, he won't even be able to forgive himself. You know, the Yoshino is the fastest warship in the entire fleet and the main force of the main force. If you are sunk here today. He didn't dare to think about it anymore.

The Yoshino is the fastest warship in the fleet, but because of the cannon just now. The speed has slowed down. It is now moving at a speed of 14 knots.

Hanoi's face was full of despair and helplessness, and he knew that soon, he would suffer a merciless blow from the Beiyang Naval Division.

Hanoi, who knew that he was about to become the target of the Beiyang Naval Division's attack, was taken aback at first, and then ran back to the conning tower as fast as he could.

Where will be the best amulet.

Sure enough, as soon as Hanoi stormed the conning tower, the overwhelming cannonballs exploded on Yoshino's deck and around it like a torrential rain. With a bang, Hanoi felt that his eardrums were about to be shattered, and then he saw that the 320-mm main gun was actually blown up more than ten meters in the air, and then smashed heavily on the bow of the ship, and the sharp bow was suddenly cut in half.

What kind of artillery is needed to achieve this terrifying explosive power, Hanoi must be full of panic in his heart.

"Reverse, reverse." Hanoi is going to start roaring like crazy. He knew that at a later date, the Yoshino would be buried here.

However, it was already too late. The second main gun shell of the Hashidate has been loaded.

"Open fire." In the small space of the main turret of the Hashidate, Liu Jun shouted the order in a firm voice.

As soon as the gunner, who had been paying attention, heard this order, he pulled sharply, and there was a loud bang, followed by a shudder, and the 320-mm cannonball smashed into the Yoshino.

With a bang, a fatal shot, Yoshino lost his power completely, and floated on the surface of the sea like a dead fish.

Yoshino's fate was sealed.

Beat the water dogs. Dingyuan, Zhenyuan, Jiyuan, and Guangbing all turned their guns and began to bombard Yoshino, a dead fish that was hated by the Beiyang Naval Division.

Target. There was no moving target at all, which made the artillery bombardment of the officers and men of the Beiyang Naval Division even more handy. In order to be able to take full advantage of his own advantages, Dingyuan Zhenyuan began to ignore the bombardment of other Japanese ships, turned the bow of the ship, and began to aim the bow of the ship at Yoshino, so that the terrifying 305 mm heavy gun could be powerful.

"Open the cannon and avenge the dead officers and soldiers." Ding Ruchang let out an earth-shattering roar.

Yoshino's time of death has arrived.

Hundreds of shells made Yoshino begin to sink gradually with fire and explosions all over his body.

Ito Yuhiro, who was not far away, saw this terrifying side and was terrified. His eyes were blank as he looked at Yoshino, who was sinking a thousand meters away, and the sailors who were fleeing for their lives.

He didn't expect that last night, he swore to pursue the Beiyang Naval Division, and then eliminate the Beiyang Naval Division in one fell swoop.

With a bang, a huge explosion woke up the demented Yuhiro Ito. His eyes widened as he watched as the Fuso, not far away, was also hit and burst into flames.

The Akagi and Hiei were also hit because of the distance. Struggled to follow.

"Yaga." Ito's eyes were full of anger, and his eyes were fiery as he stared at the Hashidate, which was shooting.

He knew that it was the shells from the Hashidate that had just incapacitated the Yoshino.

"The whole ship hits the firepower, and the bridge is the first to hit." Ito gave the order viciously.

Boom, boom, one after another, shells began to explode around the bridge, and even some shells fell directly on the warship, igniting a fire.

Fortunately, not a single shell hit the vital point.

"**** You are paralyzed, you are taking revenge on Lao Tzu." Liu Jun looked at the United Fleet, which was constantly firing shells at him. "Viciously yelling inside the turret.

"Someone, escort the marshal to the conning tower, : Seeing the increasingly violent explosion, Li He was worried that something was wrong with Liu Jun, so he hurriedly asked Liu Jun to pull Liu Jun back to the conning tower.

Who knew that Liu Jun was stunned temper, and suddenly pushed away the sailors: "What are you doing, what are you doing, you are not afraid, Lao Tzu is not afraid, my Liu Jun's life is life, and your life is also life." After saying that, he climbed to the measuring instrument again, and didn't bother with everyone.

I don't know if Liu Jun is from the bottom of his heart or if he has a heart, anyway, every throw present was moved, his eyes were red, and he silently returned to his position and began to load the shells.

"Target, Fuso, a little to the left of the 3300 gun emplacement, high angle 23." Liu Jun calmly gave the order again.

Liu Jun did not choose the capital ship of the United Fleet, because he knew that his current strength could not be destroyed again, and instead of fighting a warship that was half dead, it was better to send it directly to the western sky and see it. And among them, there are several small warships that are not guaranteed to be sent to the sky, such as Hiei, Akagi, and Fuso.

Now, the Fuso is the closest to him, and he is the only one who is the most suitable, more than a thousand tons of things, and he guarantees that such a warship can stand next to the bridge with two guns.

Boom, the main cannon roared again.

Without two cannons, the Fuso could not afford one shot, and the main gun of the Hashidate was not covered, and the Fuso was blown in two on the spot. From being blown up to sinking, it took less than three minutes.

"Dashuai, Dingyuan rushed to the front of our ship, covering us from artillery fire, Li He put down the telescope in his hand. Liu Ting shouted loudly to Liu Jun, who was measuring the distance.

"What," Liu Jun turned his head, "I didn't hear clearly.

"Dingyuan rushed to the front of our ship, covering our ship from artillery fire."

"Really." Liu Jun rolled his eyes twice, then stood up and took the telescope from Li He's hand.

Sure enough, the Dingyuan ship, which was full of fire, was blocking most of the bridge with its thick body like elephant skin. A lot of shells are exploding on the Dingyuan.

Hmph, Liu Jun snorted coldly and looked at the Matsushima, which he hated the most. His eyes were full of anger: "Aim for Matsushima for me." Liu Jun pointed to his hands and said fiercely.

The 320 mm gun gradually began to turn, and the huge muzzle began to point at Matsushima in the distance.

Running over quickly, Liu Jun grabbed the measuring instrument, and a minute later, Liu Jun reported the number: "The distance is 3000, and the high angle is 20." ”

"Open the gun"

With a bang, the deck of the Matsushima was blown to shreds.

Scattered debris flew in through the porthole inside the control tower and hit Ito, who was currently in command. Shrapnel was inserted into his arm, and he was knocked unconscious and died on the spot.

The chief of staff hurriedly carried Ito, who was already covered in blood, to the infirmary, and then returned to the control tower again. Observing the current situation

There is no longer any advantage, and now the balance of victory is already approaching the Beiyang Naval Division. , Yoshino, Fuso were sunk by the Beiyang Naval Division, Itsukushima was injured, Matsushima was also injured, and if the fight continues, it will only make the combined fleet suffer greater losses. Put down the binoculars in your hands. The chief of staff pondered.

"Chief of Staff, Hiei has been sunk." A staff officer pointed to the sinking Hiei and shouted with a hissing voice.

The Hiei was concentrated on a thin deck by the 305 mm main guns of Zhenyuan, and then exploded at the bottom of the ship, and the huge explosion blew the entire waterline into a huge gap of about 20 meters, and the sea water swarmed in. Hiei can't withstand so much seawater. Then I sat on the bottom.

"Nani." The chief of staff slowly raised the telescope.

The cold sweat on his face began to fall down drop by drop.

"Retreat, retreat." The chief of staff began to shout like crazy. "He decided, he couldn't go any further.

Li He, who was driven back by Liu Jun to command, pushed open the gate of the turret and shouted to Liu Jun, who was climbing there: "Marshal, the Japanese army has retreated." ”

Retreating, Liu Jun raised his head, then handed the measuring instrument to the soldier next to him, followed Li He out, and came to the conning tower, Li He handed the telescope to Liu Jun.

Sure enough, Liu Jun saw that the Japanese warships in the distance had already turned their bows and began to retreat in the direction of Weihai.

"Chase, chase with Lao Tzu." Liu Jun put down his binoculars, pointed to the fleeing United Fleet, and kept chopping his feet in the control tower.

"Hang the forward flag and let the whole ship pursue." Li He began to come down loudly.

When the time came, the combined fleet, which had been chasing the Beiyang Naval Division earlier, was now the target of pursuit.

Zhenyuan, Dingyuan, Jiyuan, and Pingyuan all drove at full speed and began to chase the Japanese combined fleet in front.

For half a year, the Beiyang Naval Division has been bullied by the Combined Fleet and does not even dare to go out of the port, but now, not only chasing after others, but also sinking three warships Yoshino, Hiei, and Fuso, which is an honor that has never been honored.

The guns rumbled, but the warships of the Beiyang Naval Division were aging and their speed was no match for the Combined Fleet.

The distance between the two sides is growing. At 12:10 p.m., Liu Jun saw that the distance between the two sides had widened by nearly 7 nautical miles. Helplessly, the ships gathered around the bridge, and then began to extinguish the fire, and began to swagger in the direction of Lushun.
