You can search for the latest chapters in Baidu for "Super Emperors Search Novels of the Late Qing Dynasty (www.soxscc.com)"!Although it seems that the firepower of the neon navy looks very fierce, the famous three landscapes Matsushima, Itsukushima, and Hashidate have a 320mm front-muffle cannon. Several other battleships such as Fuso and Nani also have 260mm cannons. , And other ships have a large number of 150 rapid-fire guns, while the Qing Dynasty’s battleship has only 240MM main guns, and the cruiser also has 225 main guns plus a large number of rapid-fire guns.

However, the neon navy has only 4 warships with a speed of 18 knots and above, and the three landscapes only have a speed of 16 knots.

All the warships of the Qing Dynasty had a speed of 18 knots or more, and the six cruisers of the Yang style had a speed of 24 to 26 knots.It is completely possible to open the distance and use a higher hit rate to hit them.

Yuan Jiubo, the captain of the Second Fleet of the Qing Dynasty, ordered the fleet to pick the soft persimmons first, and the two sides fought for less than 20 minutes.The 4,100-ton Nishikyo Maru and the 622-ton Aka Mosquito Ship City, which were transformed by wooden merchant ships, sank one after another.

The difference from the second battlefield is that although there is only one battleship on the main battlefield, it does determine the final trend of the entire battlefield. At this time, the Dingyuan Five-ship form is quite unfavorable, and it is in a state of retreat.

On Gran’s Observation Ship

"The overall situation is set! The four former dreadnoughts may be severely traumatized. Although Neon and their team will be hit hard, the five Saxons cannot go back."

Rear Admiral William Ram of Geely State Royal Navy said

"There will be a land battle with Neon in the north, and their shipyards can build new warships, so that their two countries would better stay at each other forever."

"The poor naval qualities of the Neon Man can already exert such a strong combat power on the former dreadnoughts. I don't know what the end of the dreadnoughts against these former dreadnoughts."

Colonel Dow Jones sighed after speaking.

The two of them have almost come to a conclusion that the navy will win the team and the battleship of the battleship will be defeated.

"Two! Quick!"

"I'm afraid you have reached a conclusion early! Look at it, northwest, what is that?"

Citi Observer Williams held a telescope in one hand and pointed to the northwest with the other. His tone was rapid, his excitement mixed with fear.

"Is there anything big happening?"

"It's a foregone conclusion. Even if two more Dingyuan ships come, it will only cause the Neon Navy to lose more. They will save more strength!"

The two looked at him amused, but they still raised the telescope in their hands and looked over there.

Then they stared in horror.Three huge warships appeared in their vision...

"Dreadnought? How could it be possible! How did the Qing people do it!"

The boss with the open mouth of Colonel Dow Jones could even swallow an egg. He didn't expect that the words he just said would immediately become reality.

From the visual inspection of the huge body, it is more than 20,000 tons. Although the observation is not clear, it can be roughly seen that there should be more than eight main guns of 12 inches or more.ok novel www.okxs8.com

The size may not explain much, but the iconic all-color main gun is definitely the standard configuration of the Dreadnought.

If it hadn't been for the flag that was clearly hung on it, he would have thought it was the dreadnought ship of the Geely country, plus the latter two terrifying 10,000-ton cruisers.It really made him unacceptable.

"Could it be that the people of the Will Kingdom helped them build it? Has the level of the Will Kingdom reached this level? Their own fearless level has not yet been released."

Williams had recovered a little bit and murmured.

"Perhaps! But I feel even more..."

William Ram himself felt that the following thoughts were incredible...

That's right, what came to the battlefield at this time was the last card of the Qing Dynasty, a Qing-class battleship and two Dongfeng Battle Cruisers.

They just want to join the battle in the most stalemate state, so that Neon has no chance of retreating.

"The emperor! Are we joining the battlefield on which side?"

Lin Yongsheng asked cautiously on the Daqing, in fact, according to the degree of urgency, it must be the four former dreadnought ships of the Neon Navy.

However, the firepower of those warships is a bit strong. Although Lin Yongsheng is very confident in the defense of the Qing-class, but the emperor above, if there is any shrapnel or something that does not have a long eye, then Lin Yongsheng is the entire Qing empire. Sinner.

And he knows very well, who is the one who directed this country to this level. If something goes wrong, the whole country will inevitably fall back to the old road, and he can't shirk the blame.

"Does this still need to be asked? I have confidence in our warships and more confidence in our navy."

Wang Guangxu turned around and walked back to the conning tower from the deck. His meaning was obvious, so he didn't want to make it difficult for Lin Yongsheng. For the sake of safety, let's enter the conning tower."

"The minister understands!"

"Come on! Give Deng Shichang and Huang Jianxun to the four ships of Honzhou at full speed, give me them this morning."

Lin Yongsheng finally felt relieved when he saw Wang Guangxu walking towards the commanding tower. With the strength of his own three warships, today is the end of the entire neon combined fleet.

The two Dongfeng combat cruisers have a displacement of 10,000 tons, a speed of 26 knots, four 32-caliber 305MM main guns, 12 180 rapid-fire guns (mainly for torpedo boats and light cruisers), and 12 torpedo tubes.Has 350MM alloy steel armor.

The 32-caliber 12-inch gun is more powerful than the Honshu’s 25-times 13.5-inch gun.Enough to penetrate his armor.The speed of 26 knots is comparable to a light cruiser.

The Qing class is even more terrifying, with a speed of 21 knots, a displacement of 22,500 tons, and the armor is 320 surface hardened armor, which is equivalent to the alloy armor of 400mm at that time, and the alloy steel armor of 600mm or more now.And those ten 32x 13.5-inch guns will be the nightmare of the former Dreadnought.

The three ships swiftly approached the main battlefield. After the Geely cruisers found them, they had begun to frantically remind the neon navy. However, when the Citi observers returned to their observation ships, they were reluctant to leave. Light patrol of 26 knots, as long as you keep your distance, you can leave calmly... ..
