"Bang!!"

After the Russian torpedo boat launched its second torpedo, the fragile torpedo protection wall finally failed to block the fierce attack of the rapid-fire cannon on the side of the Kuyong. After being penetrated by a 10-kilogram shell, the two torpedoes inside exploded violently and made a shocking noise.

Du Xigui, the captain of the Kuyong, closed his eyes tightly. He thought that the Kuyong hit the torpedo was deeply regretting that his carelessness caused the defeat of the Kuyong.

However, at the bottom of the Guangxi, the violent explosion did not happen on the Bulwyong. Du Xigui suddenly opened his eyes. He saw that the Bulwyong was intact, but what caught his eye was the surging fire after the explosion of the enemy torpedo boat.

"print!!"

The name of Kuyong was fine. After two disasters, all the officers and soldiers immediately cheered.

It turned out that because the enemy's torpedo boat was already too close when it launched the second torpedo, the torpedo plunged into the sea before it even floated up, and the Wayong escaped another disaster.

Du Xigui and Li Chengmou looked at each other and almost cried with joy. As commanders, they almost made unforgivable mistakes, and at this moment they all felt an uncontrollable guilt in their hearts.

However, the enemy did not give them time to regret. When the Bulwyon fired at the torpedo boat, Nezgatov had ordered the Liurik to set sail and all the officers and soldiers of the ship entered the combat position.

The Crickets of the Crickets relieved the crisis of the torpedo boat, and the Lürick had completed its combat preparation state. Due to the explosion of the distance of the torpedo boat, the flames illuminated the Crickets of the Crickets hidden in the night, giving the Lürick's artillery an excellent reference for aiming. As the Crickets of the Crickets maneuvered left, the two yards of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the Crickets of the

The night was flat, and the fire flashed on the bow of the Liurik, and then the sound of cannons came.

"Dong!Dong!"

The sound of the enemy's main gun fired suddenly dispelled the brief joy of all the officers and soldiers of the Huyong. The shells roared and landed on the sea a hundred meters away from the port side of the Huyong. In an instant, two water columns dozens of meters high appeared, and waves splashed.

"Go away now!"

"Prepare to prevent shock!"

"The main gun is ready to fight back!"

A series of orders were issued, and the warship of the Kuyong urgently carried out evasion. The warship rushed. The officers and soldiers took defensive measures to prevent artillery fire and adjusted the direction of the artillery to prepare for counterattack.

"The main guns at all levels are ready!"

"Fighting speed, heading northeast!"

Seeing that the Liurik was turning left sharply, Du Sigui's starboard artillery array was about to form full firepower coverage on the Bulwyong. At this time, the enemy ship would complete the "t"-headed horizontal steering action before the Bulwyong, so Du Sigui chose to continue to evade the action.

At 11:32, the Liurik completed the tactical maneuver first.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

In the dark night, the starboard fire of the Liurik shone brightly, and its starboard side concentrated four 203mm main guns, eight Minmm guns, and eight 88mm rapid-fire guns to carry out the first round of firepower volleys on the Biao Yong.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

A series of violent explosions resounded through the sky, and huge waves were raised on the sea near the Jiuyong. The waves splashed "cold sea water splashed onto the warships, splashing cold air" and made people tremble.

"Everyone keep calm!"

"The enemy cannot see us! They cannot beat us!"

"Everyone is waiting for my order to fire!"

At the deck gun positions at all levels, the staff officers walked through the cabin and on the stairs, and from time to time patted the gunners and sailors beside them on the shoulders to reduce their tension as much as possible.

In the dark night, the Kuyong never fought back, and used the cover of Yes to avoid the fire of the Liurik. At the same time, the Mast Tower interrogation room continuously corrected her position through the flames when the Liurik fired, and guided artillery at all levels to modify the shooting elements.

At 11:38," the Kuyong maneuvered to the waters near Qiuzishan Island in the southeast of Shandong. At this time, the Liurik had fired several rounds of shells, but no single shot hit the Kuyong, which confirmed Du Xigui's judgment. Even if it was less than two nautical miles away in the dark, it would be difficult to hit the opponent. Continuous attack on the Kuylu target was a foolish behavior.

At 11:46, the Kuyong number bypassed the Qiuzishan Island and Reefs" appeared in the northeast of the Dongkushan Island and Reefs.

However, the Liurik slowly approached the island and reef of Qiuzishan, thinking that the Jiuyong was nearby.

The Liurik kept firing, constantly storming her position.

At 11:58, the Bully appeared less than a nautical mile behind the side of the Liurik. Du Sigui planned to form a more favorable "t" horizontal position before launching an attack, but the Bullyk quickly discovered the Bullyk approaching the middle and made emergency avoidance.

"Attack now!"

Du Xigui didn't want to lose the opportunity in front of him," immediately ordered an attack.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The two 2203mm main guns at the bow and stern of the Jiuyong were the first to fire and avenge the enemy. A large ball of flames sprayed out of the muzzle, and then a 200-kilogram shell rushed out of the cannon chamber. The hot shells rubbed against the cold air and made a harsh whistle, and a stream of light was drawn in the night and shot at the enemy ships quickly.

"Boom! Boom!"

The hot shells hit the sea less than fifty meters away from the Liulik. When they touched the cold sea water, they exploded instantly, and huge water columns dozens of meters high were raised. In an instant, waves splashed, and the cold sea water hit the Liulik's ship, causing the Russian officers and soldiers to take a breath of air conditioning.

"What a powerful power!"

Major General Nebaugatov couldn't help but frowned, but it was obvious that the opponent only had two 203 main guns, while the Liurik had four 203 main guns, which had obvious advantages.

At this time, eight 152mm dizzy guns and four 88mm rapid-fire guns on the starboard side of the Kuyong opened fire, and the shells roared. Because the distance was less than one nautical mile, the Liurik fired and burst into its own position, resulting in the shells being hit by many places in the hull.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Several shells hit the side and deck of the stern of the Liurik ship. The shells exploded and clusters of fiery red mushroom clouds rose.

The Liurik urgently accelerated his evasion and fired a gun at the same time. Both sides bit each other's stern of the ship within less than a nautical mile, and both wanted to seize the other's "t" horizontal position, but they failed to do it. They could only engage in artillery battles in a large-angle "v"-shaped direction.

The Kuyong was obviously at a disadvantage in the number of 203 main guns and 88 speed-firing cannons. After 20 minutes of fighting, the hull was already covered with bullet marks.

At 18 a.m. on the 9th, the starboard ship of the Kuyong was hit by a 203mm shell by the Liurik. The violent explosion caused the No. 4 deputy cannon to lose its combat effectiveness and more than a dozen casualties. But Du Xigui still did not retreat. In order to hold the Liurik and win time for the fleet to encircle and annihilate the Liurik, the Jiurik continued to fight bravely.

At 25 a.m., the flagship of the Pacific Fleet's First Team, Weiyuan, arrived at the southwest of the island and reef of Huangzeyang Qiuzishan," about 3 nautical miles behind the side of the Liurik.

"Report the situation!"

"The second team has arrived at the northeast of Yangpanshan, Shengshan, and the third team has one hour's voyage from the scheduled location, Dajiyang, Daqishan, and Hailin has half an hour's voyage from the scheduled location. The report is completed!"

On the bridge of the Weiyuan, Lin Jianzhang looked at the Wuyong and Liurik in the distance and found that the firepower of the Wuyong was obviously at a disadvantage, and the ship caught fire. In the dark, the will of the Liurik artillery will provide accurate reference coordinates for the Liurik artillery in the dark. Lin Jianzhang decided to let the Weiyuan immediately enter the battle, alleviate the pressure of the Wuyong and join forces with the Wuyong to restrain the Liurik to prevent it from escaping.

"Order the second team to strictly block Shengshanyang and move closer to me. Order the third team and the Hailin to accelerate and rush to the scheduled location as soon as possible."

"yes!"

The staff officer of the bridge took the order to leave, and Lin Jianzhang immediately ordered the Weiyuan to join the battle.

At 30 a.m., the Weiyuan appeared at about 1,200 meters from the starboard direction of the Liurik.

And rushed towards the Liurik with the tactic of facing the enemy on the bow.

"fire!"

With a command, a 240 mm35 door located on the bow deck of the Weiyuan Armored Iron Battleship

The Ghana main gun was the first to fire the gun, followed by two single-barrel 240mm Ghana main guns located in the ear tables on both sides of the bow.

"Dong!Dongdong!"

Three 250 kilograms of Ghana shells cut through the night sky and roared at the Rurik.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Three shells hit the sea less than 40 meters away from the starboard side of the Liurik, and instantly formed a huge water column a hundred meters high, and rushed straight into the sky. The violent explosion impacted the Liurik side deck wrapped in huge waves and rolled onto the side deck. In an instant, the sea water burst out, like a tide hitting the Qiantang River embankment, and rushed to more than a dozen Russian sailors.

The hull of the Rurik trembled violently, Major General Neszgatov, who was commanding the port side, staggered and almost fell down.

"What's going on?"

Major General Nesangatov turned to starboard and then found that an unknown enemy ship suddenly appeared on the right. Judging from the power of the explosion, he immediately guessed that the battleship with a large caliber main gun was attacked.

"fight back!"

With a command, 16 artillery guns on the starboard side of the Liurik opened fire at the same time, and shells hit the Weiyuan like raindrops.

Since three of the four main guns of Weiyuan are arranged on the bow, just like the second ship of Dingzhen, Weiyuan uses the bow to meet the enemy when facing the enemy. In this way, the Liurik does not need to turn the warship and is directly in the horizontal position of the "t" head of the Weiyuan, which also makes it easier for dense shells to hit the Weiyuan.

"Boom boom boom!"

The shells from the starboard side of the Liurik kept hitting the bow of the Weiyuan. A series of explosions instantly shattered the outermost wooden boards on the bow deck. The crushed wood chips were ignited by the high-temperature air waves, raising up a bunch of flames. However, the Weiyuan used the fortress-style armor protection of the era, with a thickness of 11 inches. Even the Liurik's 203 main gun shell could not penetrate it.

With the fireworks surround, the Weiyuan continued to rush towards the Liurik at full speed without fear. Two minutes later, the three 240 Ghana main guns on the bow were fired again.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

Three main gun shells roared and shot at the Liurik again. As the Liurik opened fire, the flames provided accurate firing parameters for the aim of the Weiyuan main gun. The first two shells hit the sea surface, and the third shot directly hit the No. 7 gun position of the port side of the Rick, instantly penetrated the front armor of the gun position, destroying the 152mm thunder cannon on the gun position. The violent explosion caused the ammunition box piled near the gun position to explode, killing more than 20 Russian troops and causing a fierce fire.

"I've hit it!"

The officers and soldiers in the Weiyuan turret had a good start and couldn't help but feel happy. Not far behind them was the thick Weiyuan Command Tower. The Pacific Fleet Command staff watched the battle very easily here because they knew that the Liurik's shells could not hurt them at all.

As the first-class armored iron battleship, Weiyuan interprets its powerful combat power with practical actions.

More than an hour after the war started, in front of the Weiyuan, the arrogance of the Liurik was suppressed for the first time.

The Weiyuan continued to rush forward and approached the Liurik. At the same time, the fire ignited on the Liurik provided an excellent firing reference for the guns of the port side of the port, making the guns of the Liurik more and more precisely hit the Liurik.

Faced with the slandering of both sides, Major General Nesangatov did not dare to fight, and immediately ordered the Liurik to leave the battlefield at full speed and flee to the Shengshanyang Sea east of Huān Mountain to the north.

In terms of speed, the Weiyuan was quickly left behind, but the Bulwyong could linger the Liurik tightly.

Without the threat of Weiyuan, the Liurik was able to continue fighting against the Biaoyong. The second ship drove along the Caiqi Mountain Waterway, moving quickly on the sea surface less than one nautical mile away while fighting fierce artillery.

Taking the fierce firepower of the Liurik, the Kuyong always kept a distance of one nautical mile from the enemy ship.

The Kuyong does not need to rush up and fight against the enemy ship head-on, because the second team of the Pacific Fleet is moving closer to this side in the Shengshan Ocean. The Kuyong has reinforcements, so don’t fight, just bite the enemy ship and prevent her from disappearing from sight.

In the dark night sky, the fire was shining, the cannons roared, like lightning and thunder. The Bully Yong stared at the Liurik tightly, preventing her from disappearing from her own sight. At the same time, Du Xigui kept sending reports to other warships of the fleet, even if he informed the position of the Liurik.

At 1:05 a.m., at the southeast of Toushan Island, the Shengshan Ocean Sea. Just as the Liurik and the Wayong were fighting, the second team of the Pacific Fleet, the two warships, the Dangyong and the Douyong, came to participate in the war.
