The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Chapter 2488: "Zhonghua"-class battleships show their glory

With Baipi like this, Yan Changwu naturally gave them a call and praise. He divided his 186 battleship formations into two groups, led by him and Mr. David, each with 93 battleships. Double-sided to the white-skinned column of battleships from left to right.

  

   One enemy two?

  

  This kind of battle is very dangerous, but Baipi still bravely fought in under the leadership of the British battleships, even though it seems that the number of Chinese battleships may be twice as many as theirs!

  

"We are not lacking in courage, our training and equipment are also very good, but we have encountered an overly powerful enemy, or to be precise, we have encountered God himself!" ---Portuguese Rear Admiral Benjamin Don Aili After returning to China, she spoke to the noble ladies in a serious manner, and those noble ladies gracefully covered their faces with fans to conceal their surprise, thinking that they wanted to try with the gods from the east.

  

   At about 3:13, the fleets of both sides carried out the first round of shelling out of range. This situation is very common during the sailing period. The fleets of both sides usually fired artillery demonstrations when they were not in range.

  

   Baipi had the upper hand. They wanted to use the advantage of the wind to hit the Chinese through the first round of shelling. Unfortunately, they were still missing and the shell fell into the water.

  

Soon, the two opposing large fleets began a frantic shelling. As soon as the battle started, the mast of the French third-tier battleship "Queen Kate" was wounded by a chain bomb, but the situation was not serious. The luck of the sister ship "Mushus" was extremely poor. This poor battleship was cross-fired by two cutting-edge South China "Zhonghua" class battleships. Under heavy bombardment, the guns on the port and port of "Mushus" were exhausted. Being beaten dumb, the artillery fell apart, and the gunner fell in a pool of blood, immediately losing combat effectiveness.

  

   The "chaotic cloak" tactics of the "Zhonghua" class battleship played a huge role!

  

The two "Zhonghua"-class battleships used 28 32-pounder guns, 60 18-pounder guns, and 10 12-pounder guns to bombard the "Mussius", especially the 60 18-pounder guns. It rained down, and the speed was incredible!

  

   The tragic "Musius" crookedly left the formation and became the first white-skinned battleship to withdraw from the battle.

  

Set the fastest battle record: lost in eight minutes. In these eight minutes, the "Mother Hughes" had enough shots of 60 18-pounder guns in nine rounds. The hit rate of these shells was quite high. "Sius" received all the orders, and immediately received the box lunch.

  

   Generally speaking, battleship battles in the sailing period are often protracted, and the winner will not be determined so quickly, but the "China" class battleship has a high dps, and the "Mushus" suffered a lot.

  

The two fleets started a war. Although facing the disadvantage of being attacked on both sides, the white skin was still brave and fearless. The British ship "Marlborough" three-tier battleship encountered Siresma's Imperial-class battleship and a "Zhonghua" All the masts were discounted in less than ten minutes for the combined attack of the class battleship, and the number of casualties on the ship was twice that of the "Musius".

  

   However, the "Marlborough" was not the battleship with the highest casualties in the Whiteskin fleet. The Swedish battleship "Mountain Giant" (74 artillery) had a total of 395 casualties, and even the captain John Dick was killed.

  

The gunners on the battleships of the South China covered the white skin with powerful artillery fire. The huge gap in the morale, quality and equipment of the sailors between China and Europe was quickly reflected. The British flagship "Prince Royal" and the third level of the South China Army The battleship "Southeast Asia 147" counterattacked. Although "Prince Royal" had the upper hand, "Southeast Asia 147" always fired back tenaciously, and the shells on the "Prince Royal" were very powerful, making the ship white. We had to evade in embarrassment, and the firepower could not suppress the "Southeast Asia 147".

   This is the master of the South China Fleet!

  

   The British cannot win in the hands of the Chinese, and the other whites are even worse.

  

When the South China Army’s flagship "The Great" sailed away from the stern of the Portuguese flagship "Santa Teresa", the latter was beaten by the former. The glass on the stern tower was broken, and the ship was in a mess. It looked like a mess. The torn woman!

  

   The Portuguese commander, Admiral Ermenga de Asper, had to transfer to another large ship, the Saint Martin.

  

Then the "St. Martin" followed in the footsteps of the "St. Teresa". The huge "St. Martin" was attacked by the "Zhonghua" class battleship commanded by Admiral Zhao Tianjing of the South China Army. The hull of the "St. Martin" The middle and rear parts were devastated and blood flowed into rivers!

  

This time Admiral Ermengard Asper did not have the last good luck. His forehead was bruised by shrapnel, and he had to take off his exaggerated big hat and covered the wound with gauze. He humorously treated him. The adjutant Eric said: "I became an Ottoman Baotou!"

  

   His humor cannot conceal his fault. He wore his noble hat in battle, which was fancy but not practical. All the generals in the South China Army wore steel helmets, and few were injured in vain.

  

Seeing that the existing fleet was beaten by the Chinese, the British had to release their rockets. They ignited Gu rockets on the deck. The deck of the ship was enveloped by billowing smoke, and the rockets hit the distant South China with the sound of wind. Ship!

  

   Groups of intense flames shot up from the battleship, mixed pieces of wood flew tens of meters high, rockets exploded, lead bullets and nails flew horizontally, I don't know how many sailors were affected.

  

However, the expected effect of the British failed to achieve. The Chinese used shields and armor to resist the flying objects. The damage control unit on the ship quickly rushed to the fire with fire blankets and sand buckets, seeing anything Put out a fire, they are desperate!

  

   The rocket that landed on the sail also failed to burn, because the sail was soaked with fire-extinguishing powder.

  

   Compared with the results achieved by using rockets for the first time, the results of this rocket attack are simply insignificant.

  

Not only that, the Chinese also used rocket attacks. When the white-skinned people saw rockets with white smoke rushing towards them, many of the white-skinned people actually thought this way: "Hey, **** British, did you sell their rockets to the Chinese?!"

  

   It can be seen that the reputation of the British is poor. They do everything in order to make money. They actually sell battleships to the Chinese, teach technology, and package churches. Therefore, it is a real hammer for the British to sell rockets to the Chinese!

  

However, the shooting effect of the Chinese rockets is also not good. First, it is not easy to hit at sea. Second, the British have also taught other white skins to prevent rockets. It is also similar to the Chinese rescue of battleships, water and sand in time. Extinguish the fire head with stone to prevent the battleship from catching fire.

  

   This also shows that a new technology cannot have the effect of turning the tide of the battle in the face of a complete system. In the maritime battlefield, the difference between high and low is ultimately dependent on artillery.

  

With the blast of artillery on the sea, Nanhua’s battleships slammed the Whiteskin battleships with full enthusiasm and skilled artillery. The freely flying shells made the Whiteskins defeated in the artillery battle, especially the 18 "China" class. The battleship’s shells were fired like a rain of bullets, showing great power. Wherever they went, Baipi was beaten helplessly and suffered heavy casualties.

  

   Little Admiral Lierva Don Chatenefer saw the situation not good, and ordered Mingjin to retreat. This time Baipi no longer taught the flagship combat, but obeyed the order!
