Under the emergency treatment of the damage control team, the combat effectiveness of the No. 006 battleship still exists.
On the sea battlefield, the guns of the four battleships of the Yangtze River Fleet began to rotate slowly, trying to aim at the two enemy destroyers that were attacking from behind.
However, during this period, as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Fleet, Pol Kruf naturally would not sit and watch the show.
In the previous rounds of confrontation between the heavy-fire warships of the two sides, the Yangtze River Fleet failed to deal a fatal blow to them.
Except for the bow main gun of a heavy cruiser that was blown up, the damage of the other three heavy cruisers and the battleship Counterattack was relatively limited, and the combat effectiveness was preserved to the greatest extent.
But now, for Pol Kruf, it is undoubtedly the time to fight back.
The battleship Counterattack and the four heavy cruisers quickly spread out their formation, and the continuous naval artillery strikes gave them a strong sense of presence.
Round after round of shelling continued to sweep over, making the four battleships of the Yangtze River Fleet distracted to avoid.
The No. 006 battleship was damaged by the attack of the previous suicide ship, and the performance of the battleship was affected. In this wave of enemy naval gun attacks, it was unfortunately hit by three shells from the enemy ship, and the state has become worse.
A wave of rhythm has been completely brought up by the opponent.
On the Yangtze River Fleet's side, a round of bombardment by four battleships failed to sink the two enemy destroyers.
At this moment, the targets of the two enemy destroyers were extremely clear, and the quadruple torpedo launchers turned and fired torpedoes directly at the No. 006 battleship.
According to the speed of the battleship, coupled with its huge size, it is impossible to avoid the wave of torpedoes when it is approached by an enemy destroyer.
Amidst the violent explosion and roar, the torpedoes hit consecutively, and the No. 006 battleship, which was attacked by the enemy one after another, billowed thick smoke directly.
"Report to the Major! The engine is on fire!!"
"Major, the gap in the cabin has expanded and cannot be blocked!!"
"Major"
Listening to the anxious reports in his ears, the damage control team on the battleship was completely unable to withstand it. As the captain of the No. 006 battleship, he knew in his heart that the sinking of the battleship was a foregone conclusion.
"Lay down the lifeboat and let everyone leave!"
The sinking of the No. 006 battleship was undoubtedly a huge loss for the Yangtze River Fleet, and the blow was even heavier.
However, the two enemy destroyers, who were the culprits, did not slow down for a moment. After launching a round of torpedoes, they were ready to flee for their lives.
But will Tong Lei let them go? Obviously not!
With an order, the whole ship's guns fired again!
One of the destroyers was sunk on the spot, and although the other did not sink directly, the hull was already on fire in many places.
A destroyer of the Yangtze River Fleet driving quickly from the side took over the pursuit mission.
And after two rounds of firefights, the opponent was completely sunk.
Taking two deep breaths, Tong Lei, who forced himself to calm down, quickly ordered and signaled his three battleships to launch a counterattack.
The heavy ship-borne guns began to quickly turn to the battleship Repulse and the four heavy cruisers behind the Imperial Navy.
At this moment, the entire battle is about to enter a white-hot stage!
"Fire!!!"
The roar of shelling constantly shakes the sea area, and above the sea, there are wreckages of warships everywhere, full of the smell of gunpowder smoke.
The continuous bombardment has completely changed the armor plates of two of the heavy cruisers in the imperial fleet, and the damage control team has been extremely busy.
The constant feedback of the poor state forced the captains of the two heavy cruisers to order a temporary retreat for a certain distance, intending to wait for the damage control team to stabilize the situation before fighting back.
However, they think beautifully, but the results are often not satisfactory.
After the speed of the heavy cruiser was raised, the distance of less than a few nautical miles was shifted. Accompanied by the four explosions of "Boom Boom Boom", the violent explosion impact completely sank a heavy cruiser on the spot!
"Damn it, it's a mine!!"
Looking at the friendly warship slowly sinking into the sea in front of him, the captain of another heavy cruiser screamed on the spot
"Stop it for me! Don't rush up!!"
However, in order to get out of the battlefield as soon as possible, their speed at this time has already been raised to the limit. Coupled with the exaggerated tonnage of the heavy cruiser, once they charge up, they can stop even if they say stopof?
No matter how the captain roared, he couldn't change the cruel reality that the heavy cruiser he was in had already crashed into the minefield.
At this moment, the goddess of luck failed to favor him.
During the uncontrollable forward rush, the bow part of the heavy cruiser hit a mine placed under the sea surface without any accident.
A violent explosion shook the ship's body violently, and at the same time made his entire battleship even more precarious.
In order to prevent the sinking of the heavy cruiser, the damage control team, which was already overwhelmed by this situation, was about to go crazy at this moment.
During this period, the main guns of the three battleships of the Yangtze River Fleet slowly turned. After aiming at the heavy cruiser whose speed was plummeting, each of the pitch-black muzzles suddenly burst into flames, and a round of shelling came with a screaming sound. The flying artillery shells directly crushed the last straw in their hands, forcibly sinking the heavy cruiser completely.
In a short period of time, the continuous changes in the battlefield situation made Pol Kruf's face uncertain for a while.
There is no doubt that the surrounding areas of these warships have been planted with mines by the underwater combat forces of the Yangtze River Fleet.
By the way, it is worth mentioning here that these mines were provided by Charlie Klumber's Imperial Navy, yes, they were the ones dismantled by the Water Lizard Warriors.
However, probably because of the quality of gunpowder, compared with the gunpowder produced by the dwarf gunpowder workshop, the power of the enemy's gunpowder is really a little bit worse.
At this moment, the encirclement net from the underwater has been formed, and the three battleships that have confirmed the suppression range are firing frequently. The battleship Retaliation of the Imperial Fleet and the remaining two heavy cruisers can't beat them with reckless firepower.
Under this premise, the invisible threat of mines in the surrounding waters is even worse for them.
Yes, Tong Lei is indeed not good at dealing with those strange moves, and at the same time paid a corresponding price for it.
But now, the suicide ship on the opposite side has been blown up to a close, and Tong Lei, whose battle rhythm has returned to the normal state of naval warfare, unexpectedly suppressed that tone precisely because of his stern character, and Grab the battle rhythm back into your hands again!
