"This is impossible!"

The blue sea was instantly enveloped in flames and smoke. read

Blood poured into the water like red ink and spread in the sea.

Wolfe held the side of the boat tightly, his pupils dilated, and he couldn't help but murmur.

In his mind, a battleship explosion would only occur if the ammunition depot was directly hit by a blazing bomb.

It was only possible that a warship would be hit occasionally.

But there is absolutely no chance that seven warships will be hit at once.

Looking at the corpses of British soldiers floating in the sea and the soldiers struggling for help, Wolfe's heart sank to the bottom of the sea.

"Boom, boom, boom..." The artillery battle between the two sides continued.

After losing six sail battleships and one steamship, the intensity of artillery fire of the British and Japanese fleets was obviously lost to the Yanzhou fleet.

Moreover, Japanese warships still use Japanese artillery, which has insufficient range and power.

"Boom!", "Boom!", "Boom!"

After the second round of shelling, five more battleships exploded into a mass of burning flames.

These included a British sailing battleship, a steamship, and three Japanese sailing battleships.

Of the thirty sail warships, only twenty were left after two rounds of bombardment, and ten steamships were left.

This time, Wolfe witnessed the entire shelling process.

The shells whizzed past him, most falling into the sea.

There wasn't even a fiery round among these shells.

But their battleship exploded again.

Three of the battleships were blown to pieces, and two battleships were burning with smoke and flames.

Although it did not sink, the hull seemed to have been chewed by a shark. A piece of the hull on the side disappeared. More than a dozen artillery pieces fell into the sea. The remaining artillery pieces were crooked and completely lost their combat effectiveness.

"What the hell is going on!" Wolfe broke out in a cold sweat.

Since he joined the navy, he has fought against Frankish warships at sea and also fought against Francons.

But he had never felt this powerless before.

At this moment, they seemed to be indigenous people, facing the powerful ships and artillery of the Western Turks.

"Stop the bombardment, ram them, and engage them in a broadside battle," Wolfe shouted.

If they continue to bombard each other, they will be wiped out. If they escape, they will not be able to escape.

When he is ruthless, he will definitely see red with his bayonet like an army on the battlefield.

At his order, the steamship turned around and dragged the sail warship towards the Yanzhou fleet.

"Hmph, they are anxious." Leting said, Zhou Yi dusted off the sawdust on his body and raised the corners of his mouth.

In this naval battle, rifled guns and conical shells showed terrifying combat power.

For him, after this battle, smoothbore naval guns and round solid bullets will be eliminated from the navy.

However, although they gained a huge advantage, their own warships also suffered considerable losses.

The main mast of a sailing battleship was hit and broken by an opponent's cannonball.

Fortunately, this battleship was towed by a steam ship, otherwise it would be paralyzed at sea, and its only fate would be to be sunk.

There were also five battleships whose side hulls were penetrated and leaked, but the crews immediately made repairs and the problem was not serious.

In addition, three battleships were penetrated by incandescent bombs. Fortunately, the powder barrels were not hit, but fires were also caused. After the crew put them out, they were still smoking.

"Indeed, this is a life-threatening style of play." Gong Ying wiped the blood on his face.

A flying sawdust scratched the left side of his face.

A fierce light flashed from Zhou Yi's eyes, and he said: "I will not give them a chance to continue firing!"

The opponent no longer shoots at them, but charges towards them.

This is equivalent to pointing the bow of the ship at them, completely giving up firepower, and just trying to get close to them in order to kill one by one.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Zhou Yi's order was issued, and thirty sail warships roared again.

Cannonballs flew towards the British and Japanese battleships that were rushing over.

"Boom!" A warship was hit by a cone-shaped shell and exploded.

"Boom!" "Boom!" Then two more ships came.

The number of sailing warships in Britain and Japan continued to decrease.

When they entered within 200 meters, Zhou Yi ordered the eighteen sail warships to stay in place and bombard them.

He commanded twelve steamships to tow twelve sailing warships to the side.

At this time, the British fleet had only six sailing warships towed by steamships, and the Japanese had only eight sailing warships left.

"It's over, it's all over."

At Edo Pier, Watanabe Case has been paying attention to the naval battle.

Seeing the British battleships and Japanese battleships exploding continuously, his whole body became stiff.

The British fleet, which in his eyes was invincible, was sunk by the opponent without being able to fight back.

Now, Japan and Britain have less than half of each other's warships.

Although several Yanzhou battleships seemed to be damaged, their combat effectiveness did not seem to be affected.

"General, it is impossible to win the naval battle. We must prepare to resist the invasion of King Yan." Yamada Haruno said.

The British fleet and the Japanese fleet were defeated, what will King Yan do next?

There is no need to think about this issue at all.

After hearing this, Watanabe An slowly closed his eyes and said: "Gather all the Japanese troops to important coastal cities and recruit Japanese men over fourteen years old to join the army. Japan will never surrender to King Yan!"

They did lose this naval battle.

But the main reason for the failure was that they were negligent. They did not hide the fleet in the inland river, and they did not expect that King Yan would own a steamship.

But if King Yan wins this time, he may not win the next time.

This British fleet in the East is nothing more than a second-rate British fleet stationed in the East.

And he knew that Britain had a huge fleet of more than 500 warships.

Britain just looked down on the Eastern Territory and did not invest this fleet in the Eastern Territory.

Furthermore, Britain's steam industry ranks first in the West.

And this is just Britain, Sam's steam industry is also booming.

In addition to Sam's country, there are also powerful Western countries such as Frank and Ross.

When they all set their sights on Dongtu, King Yan's good days will come to an end.

Therefore, he will continue to confront the King of Yan until the reinforcements from the Western Territory arrive and let them see the value of Japan.

This is Japan's only chance to dominate the East.

What's more, he led the Yan Alliance and the Dongtu Alliance. He also participated in the civil strife in Dasong, and Goryeo fought another war with the King of Yan.

How could King Yan let him go? The only way he had left was to resist to the end.

Even if the Japanese jade is broken, he will not hesitate.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was another violent explosion on the sea, and three more Japanese warships were burning with gas.

The Yanzhou Fleet and the British Fleet were still at sea.

The British fleet wanted to bite the Yanzhou fleet like a snake.

However, the Yanzhou fleet repeatedly threw away the British warships and tried to bypass the opponent's flank.

While you were chasing each other, the eighteen sail warships stationed in Yanzhou kept looking for opportunities to bombard them.

Japanese battleships and British battleships were hit from time to time and fell into a sea of ​​flames.
