    However, the war still had to be fought. Faced with the high-speed rush of Chinese warships, the Japanese sailors also picked up their guns.

    Preparations are needed to launch torpedoes again, and the Chinese warships are already firing their naval guns at the "Yura" desperately.  The side cannon, which had nothing to do, actually fired at the "Tanikaze" class on its left front. What a bully!

    Using destroyers to fight cruisers, there is still room to provoke another warship of similar tonnage and superior firepower. What is this rhythm?  Only crew member No. 005 understood: The future is uncertain. Since we have nothing to do, why not try firing the cannon?  Anyway, if the warship sinks, the shells will be wasted!

    Zhishang was angry, but he also admired the other captain: Soldiers should die vigorously!  He ordered the gunner: "Replace with shotgun shells and smooth its deck!" At such a close distance, the power of shotgun shells can be fully exerted.

    A shell fell on the 005 ship, and the soldiers and gunners who were loading ammunition died on the spot.  Not only that, another artillery position was also affected, and several people were seriously injured.

    No. 005's cannon went silent.  What's even worse is that the captain was also hit by shrapnel.  The glass in front of You Keshu's command tower was shattered, and a piece of shrapnel fell on his head.  You Keshu fell into a pool of blood with unwillingness to achieve his ambition. Before losing his mind, he still said: "Agent!"

    Screams and fire and smoke enveloped the entire ship.  Without a command, 005 is like a leaf drifting on the sea, in danger of being swept away by the waves at any time.  Who represents?  The vice-captain was directing the ship's guns on the deck just now. Where was he?  The second mate was not here either, and no one had time to search in this chaotic situation.

    Chief Engineer Mo Yaoming decisively took over the command: "I have been ordered to act as captain, and the bow torpedo is ready to be launched!"

    Being so close, the cannons are gone, and the only ones that can produce power are fish and mines.  Just as the warship adjusted its direction to launch the fish and mine, the observation post shouted: "There is a fish and mine!"

    That was the second round of torpedoes launched by the "Yura", coming with thin traces like two white lines riding the wind and waves.  According to the trajectory, No. 005 can still avoid it, but the torpedo launch from the bow of the ship will inevitably be suspended.

    Do you want to hide?  The screams on the ship continued, and the billowing smoke from the friendly ships continued. Mo Yaoming hesitated for a moment, but considering the gap in firepower and the opportunity that the ship had finally found, he still ordered to continue firing.  If the "Yura" is not severely damaged, the losses of the Bohai Fleet will be even greater!  It has the advantage of long-range artillery fire.

    The Japanese ship also spotted the incoming torpedo and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Turn thirty degrees to the right, emergency avoidance!"

    But how can such a huge body move at will?  Since it is facing the Chinese warship from the side to exert the power of the string cannon, such a wide hull is a good time for fish and mines to show their talents.  Although the "Yura" has a better speed, it is still not faster than the arrival of death.  One torpedo was passed by, but another hit its tail fin.

    With the thunderous explosion, the tail of the "Yura" was a sea of ??fire.  The astonishing power of the fish mine blew up its rudder.

    Almost at the same time, two torpedoes attached to the left and right strings of No. 005 exploded. The destroyer trembled, and two large holes were opened in each case, and sea water gurgled in.  According to such battle losses, the warship will definitely not be saved.

    This is a strategy of perish together. The Chinese warships were severely damaged, but the Japanese warships were not easy either.

    Without motivation, it is a living target.  Without support, it will sooner or later be sunk by Chinese warships with power advantages.  A group of tiger sharks and long whales fight with each other, and the result is predictable.

    The No. 005 ship was replied to allow it to evacuate the battlefield. Mo Yaoming ordered the warship to stagger out of the Yuliang's fire range while conducting safety inspections.  If the damage is serious, he will order the ship to be abandoned.

    The only three rubber boats on the ship were also put down. After the lightly and seriously injured were transferred to the boats, he still paid attention to the changes in the battlefield.

    Ling Xiao, who was commanding the fleet, witnessed the tragic situation of the naval battle. His ship "Hai Chen" was too slow, so he boarded a destroyer and took command, letting the old "Zhen Hai" accompany "Hai Chen" slowly.  Let's go.  He calmly ordered the other three warships: "Let go of the Yura and attack the Tanikaze together!"

    With the advantage of having more ships, let¡¯s sink the ¡°Tanikaze¡± first, and then turn around to deal with the ¡°Yura¡±.  Otherwise, if the "Yura" is sunk, the "Tanikaze" will naturally escape - based on the artillery battle just now, it can be seen that the Chinese warship's firepower is too weak and it may not be able to fatally strike the enemy.

    If you want to kill them all in one litter, you have to start with the ones that can run.

    He thinks too much.

    It is said that "Tanikaze" is not slow, but it is not the style of the Japanese navy to escape from battle - if you really do this, you will either be executed or die of shame for the rest of your life. Why not rely on Big Brother to protect you?  "Yu Liang"?It can't move, but fighting is still no problem. Its remaining six 5.5-inch cannons are still not matchable by the Chinese navy.

    It turns out that "Gufeng" was accompanied by "Yu Liang", and it was very powerful for a period of time.  With the rough skin of the "Yura" in front, it took the opportunity to fire a lot of cannons. Fortunately, the firepower was not fierce and it only rubbed the skin of a destroyer.

    Now, a new round of destroyer duel begins.  The only advantage of Chinese destroyers is speed. The top speed is said to be 35 nautical miles per hour.  Although it is difficult to penetrate the armor of the "Yura" at a distance of 5 nautical miles, it is still confident to deal with the "Tanikaze".  Therefore, the "Tanikaze" wisely stayed close to the stern of the "Yura", not only to protect her dangerous back, but also to rely on the cannons on the ship to avoid worries.

    The two warships are like brothers who depend on each other, tightly connected.  This battle is not easy to fight.

    Ling Xiao secretly praised the cleverness of the "Gu Feng", but it also played into his own ambitions.  As long as you don't leave, many things will be easy to handle.  Although it is difficult for the two of them to break through when they are grouped together, just like the shore guns, although they are fierce, there is no threat if they are far away from its range.  The Tanikaze's original advantage of speed and hope of escaping from the battlefield were now given up by itself.

    Ling Xiao ordered three destroyers to attack Tanikaze from the stern of the "Yura": This is a relatively safe place. The "Yura" can only spin in place because the tail rudder was damaged, and the flexibility of the destroyers was fully utilized.  , and can avoid its sharp side cannon as much as possible.

    As for the "Tanikaze"'s naval gun of similar caliber (120mm), as long as it is not on the core, even if it hits the body with a few shots, it will not cause much damage. This is also the reason why various countries' naval guns are getting bigger and bigger and the tonnage of warships is increasing before and after World War I.  One of the big reasons.  The cannon is too small and ineffective!

    Hundreds of shells were fired each, and the "Tanikaze" only received a few shells on the deck and one shot on the string.  Although some people died, it did not harm the overall situation.

    Ling Xiao arranged for each ship to practice "target practice" while anxiously waiting for the arrival of the lagging "Haichen" ship.  With the power of the 150mm rapid-fire cannon on it, the "Tanikaze" could not take a few hits from it, and even the "Yura" could only survive in vain.

    Next to it, the 005 ship that was flooded on both sides miraculously stopped its damage after closing two valves. Mo Yaoming, who had already ordered the ship to be abandoned, was carrying the seriously injured and unconscious Captain You Keshu and other injured people into the ship's small boat.  After letting go, he decisively ordered to continue firing torpedoes at the "Yura".

    The three destroyers are unable to deal with such a light cruiser, and only torpedoes can attack it.

    "Fish | Lei Bing, check the situation."

    The reply to him was good news: "Reporting to the chief engineer, except for torpedoes No. 3, 4, 5 and 6, the other torpedoes are in good condition." These are close to the side cabin, so it is normal for them to be affected. "Jiujiang  "Class" has 12 fish | detonators, which does not have much impact on combat.

    As long as you can fight!

    Mo Yaoming ordered the power cabin: "Add full power and get closer to the enemy ship!" In order to increase accuracy, the closer the better, but the accuracy of the opponent's artillery is also the highest. This is an eternal contradiction.

    Not far away, the No. 005 ship "came back to life" surprised Zhishang, who was immersed in the battlefield situation.  After thirty years of service in the military, this was the first warship that frightened him.  Although its firepower is weaker, its close-up attacks, especially those of fish and mines, are deadly.  This hard work, this courage not to be afraid of death, is exactly what the navy needs.  It can't even walk unsteadily, what else do you want to do?

    He did not deliberately avoid its gunfire, but just charged forward.  Every time you get closer, you become more confident.  The immobile "Yura" is the best target for torpedoes. During this section of the road, I had no ideas and no time to consider the flying and whistling shells. I only had one belief: get closer, get closer!

    Ling Xiao watched in surprise as the staggering 005 ship got into the barrage of the "Yura". The desperate fighting style made him wet instantly.  Comrades-in-arms, comrades-in-arms, dear brothers, only at this time can the feelings of "brothers fighting tigers" fully burst out.  No. 005 has been seriously injured and cannot be left to risk alone.  He displayed the signal: "Get close and shoot, cover 005!"

    Regardless of the rain of bullets, the three "Jiujiang" class ships were also at full power. Each ship poured shells onto the "Tanikaze" desperately, quickly opening a gap here.

    "Tanikaze" is made of iron, but its people are not. This dense rain of bombardment completely stunned them.  Although it cannot be sunk, the Chinese navy's shotguns have repeatedly plowed the movable items on its surface.  The unmanned naval guns can no longer be activated, and the warship is a floating coffin.  If it is still lethal, it is only fish | mine.

    But the Chinese Navy has already taken action first.  The three ships launched a salvo, and six torpedoes hit the "Tanikaze" from all directions, making it impossible for it to dodge.  Already surrounded by an arc, it had no way to retreat, and it was unable to eat up the Chinese warships. It could only wait to see the fish|mines come towards it, and then hopelessly avoid them.

    Ship No. 005 over there has made a big breakthrough.  Due to the water entering the side string, the warship was semi-calm, but it gave the "Yura" the feeling of a dog biting a hedgehog but unable to bite it.  The bow of the ship was originally the thickest part of the armor, and the thin parts were submerged under the water. As a result, the cannonballs splashed up but did no substantial damage.

    There was no one on the deck at all - apart from the sacrificed ones and those who were wounded and sent away, there were only a few people left, and now they are all in the cabin.  In this battle, there was no such thing as naval guns, but we were rushing to send fish and mines!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com), and then hopelessly evaded.
