Rumble.......

Ten minutes after engagement, the middle part of the Songshan cruiser next to the Hongzhang received an armor-piercing shell, which directly pierced the deck and exploded inside. Ran Wen ???.? ｒ?ａ?ｎ?? ｅ?ｎ?`ｏ ｒ?ｇ

Fortunately, the ammunition depot is not there, otherwise the Songshan will not be able to bear it, and when he saw the smoke of Songshan, Li He thought on the bridge.

"Concentrate your firepower and hit his flagship first." Without the slightest superfluous rejoicing, Li He gave the order again.

Boom Boom Boom ...... Li He's order was quickly executed, and all the artillery fire began to focus on the opponent's flagship.

In the capital, the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, since receiving the news that Li He's fleet had discovered the enemy, Liu Jun has been standing outside the main hall, driving in the direction of Nanyang.

What should come will always come, Liu Jun really wants to participate in this battle this time, but he knows that he doesn't want to go to the front line now, even if it is Beijing, he rarely leaves.

"It's a fight." Zhong Lin's voice sounded,

Hearing this voice, Liu Jun turned around and looked at Zhong Lin who came from outside.

Finally a fight started, Liu Jun, who heard this, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Zhong Lin in front of him.

"Head, Lee and called, they exchanged fire with each other at 3:17."

At 3:17, Liu Jun raised his wrist and looked at it, and now it was already four o'clock, that is, they had been fighting for half an hour.

Now there are still four hours before it is too dark, four hours, there should be results, thinking of this, Liu Jun pointed to Zheng Yiqian in front of him and said, "It's called Wu Tingfang." ”

Zheng Yiqian knew the purpose of Liu Jun calling Wu Tingfang to come, she smiled, and then turned around and walked out.

Ten minutes later, Zheng Yiqian took Wu Tingfang to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Wu Tingfang had just finished dealing with the ambassador to Germany today, and was about to report to the Government Council, when he went out, he saw Zheng Yiqian coming from outside, and he knew that Zheng Yiqian was ordered to come to him, so Wu Tingfang changed his plan and came to the Heart Cultivation Hall first.

During the time when Zheng Yiqian went out, Liu Jun had already filtered his general plan in his heart, so when he saw Wu Tingfang coming in, Liu Jun roughly said what he meant.

"Marshal, you mean to negotiate with Spain?" After listening to Liu Jun's meaning, Wu Tingfang asked tentatively.

It is to negotiate, but to see if they are willing to negotiate Liu Jun nodded slightly, agreeing with Wu Tingfang's words.

What's going on, now that our army in Nanyang has the upper hand, there is no need to negotiate with them at all, although Wu Tingfang does not understand military affairs, but at present, the fighting in Nanyang, the imperial ** team is advancing step by step, from this point of view, these are the precursors of victory.

However, Dashuai made himself ready to negotiate at this time, and Wu Tingfang was a little incomprehensible in his heart.

Seeing that Wu Tingfang didn't understand, Liu Jun smiled and said what he thought in his heart.

War does not have to be obtained by force, and sometimes, with the mouth, you can get more.

Only by using diplomacy and force at the same time can we reduce our own losses.

Liu Jun's words were very direct and easy to understand, and after a few minutes, Wu Tingfang understood what Liu Jun meant.

"Don't worry, I'll go back and prepare immediately." Wu Tingfang, who figured out the situation, nodded, then turned around and walked out.

After Wu Tingfang went out, Liu Jun smiled again, and now, he still had one more thing to do, that is, to find Huang Xing of the Imperial Daily and ask him to write a report, that is, the report that Nanyang Li He led the fleet and completely annihilated the enemy's reinforcements.

This report, firstly, is to boost the morale of the empire, and secondly, it is to let his opponents get the news and panic.

"Huang Xing's side?"

"I have already explained to Huang Xing, he has already written the article yesterday, just waiting for the news here." Liu Jun hadn't finished speaking, and Zheng Yiqian, who was next to him, had already said what she meant.

Well, Liu Jun is very satisfied with Zheng Yiqian's arrangement, he just needs this, and he doesn't have to explain everything himself.

Wait, now I am waiting for Li He's news.

Boom Boom Boom ....... On the surface of the South Seas, fierce naval battles are still going on, and they have been fought for two hours, and now it is five o'clock.

For two hours, both sides were injured.

One of the battleships of Mingxin's fleet had been sunk half an hour earlier, and one cruiser was seriously damaged, and Li He's fleet, the Songshan, did not finally escape the fate of being sunk.

Forty minutes earlier, the Songshan, which had already been seriously wounded, was subjected to intense enemy fire, and nearly a dozen shells fell into the Songshan.

The most hateful thing is that an artillery shell actually hit the ammunition depot, and immediately detonated the 210 mm auxiliary ammunition inside.

The huge explosion immediately tore open the Songshan nearly seven or eight meters of holes, and tons of seawater poured into it.

There was no way, Li He could only give the Songshan an order to evacuate.

Now, the Songshan has disappeared from the sea.

Because the Hongzhang is a flagship, it did not suffer one or two rounds of bombardment.

There were eight secondary guns, but now five have been destroyed by the opponent, and only three are still firing.

The battery of the main gun was attacked by two shells, although it did not cause much damage, but all the gunners inside were killed, and now the gunners in the main gun are all reserve gunners.

Rumble....... A violent explosion exploded above Li He's head, and when Li He looked back, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

The semaphore flag was destroyed. And the mast was also broken.

Damn, Li He, who saw this, cursed, and then quickly left the bridge.

Now that he is on the bridge, he can't give any orders, he needs to go to the command platform and use the radio to command.

Hahaha, Lao Tzu finally sank your signal flag, I see what kind of command you use.

On the cruiser, Ming Xin looked at the Hongzhang that was already smoking in the distance, and laughed wildly.

His flagship had sunk Li He's fleet half an hour earlier, and Ming Xin was rescued by his adjutant with great difficulty.

Although he was rescued, the hundreds of officers and men on the warship actually sank with the warship.

"Keep bombarding their flagships, as long as their flagships are sunk, this victory will be ours." Ming Xin, who laughed a little, pointed at the Hongzhang in the distance viciously.

Boom...... Less than two minutes after Ming Xin's order was given, the already loaded shells were fired again, and then they were fired at the Hongzhang where Li He was.

Damn, I saw that the other party was all aimed at me. Li He scolded in his heart. (To be continued.) )
