Liao Jingfang took the telegram back to the control tower and said to Sa Zhenbing who was waiting anxiously.

"Send four battle cruisers to take a look. The Neon people will definitely send heavy cruisers to meet them. Destroy some of their cruisers and destroyers, and the safety of the aircraft carrier formation has also been more guaranteed,"

Sa Zhenbing couldn't help showing a hint of excitement, and said immediately.

In order to ensure the safety of the aircraft carrier formation and prevent unexpected accidents, the Qing Dynasty still deployed many peripheral warships, such as preventing the interference of the Citi Navy.

Although Citigroup did not say that all their capital ships should be left in the military port, but they are not afraid of ten thousand but just in case.

If that is Citi’s blindfold, the main force fleet has already appeared in the neon waters, and it would be very bad if you intervene at a critical moment, so there are not many auxiliary ships that they can really use.

Similarly, Shimamura Yusu also sent six heavy patrols to support their vanguard forces, but he took them down. His order was that if the support team sent by the Qing navy was not strong, it could be a battle.

But if the scale is relatively large, then the heavy cruiser can take over those light cruisers and destroyers. In his opinion, the battle cruiser of the Qing Dynasty must make up for the lack of battleship combat power, and it is unlikely to appear in the vanguard. In a fight.

The current naval battle is very different from before. It is no longer all the formations but the battleships that are set up for a duel. Due to the improvement of performance and tactical concepts, cruisers and destroyers are engaged in chaotic battles. Makes naval battles more complicated.

Sometimes the auxiliary fleet gains absolute advantage, it can also change the situation. After all, after the torpedoes, these light warships are also lethal to the capital ships, but if the tactics of the light fleet impact are to be used, the price is also Disastrous.

After all, the speed and firepower of current capital ships are not what they used to be, and it is difficult to find opportunities for this situation.

In fact, after the emergence of aircraft carrier tactics, naval battles slowly returned to the previous method of combat in large formations. The two sides started fighting around sinking and protecting the aircraft carrier, but the combat method was much more three-dimensional and complicated.

When the support forces of both sides just set off, the naval battle over there had already begun.

At 7:31, the Qing navy fired the first shot of the naval battle.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The 180MM guns of the wind-class cruisers first began to roar. Although their single main guns were slightly worse in caliber, their performance occupies an advantage, and their range was far longer than the neon light cruiser.

The two sides were fighting one-on-one. In the duel, the Qing navy almost occupied an absolute advantage.

Their tonnage is larger and the number of artillery is larger. The key is that the level of their guns is not at the same level. The amount of live ammunition training is simply incomparable. Even if Neon has a more advanced physical fire control system, It just improved and made up for their skill in gunnery.Fat Cat Novels www.fmxs8.com

In the fast approaching cruiser duel, the difficulty of hitting is undoubtedly still huge, so their Kawauchi-class cruisers were at a disadvantage from the beginning.

One after another cannonballs fell continuously around the neon cruiser. As the 155 cannon began to test fire, the pressure on the neon cruiser suddenly began to increase. If the cannonballs rained down on them, they would throw amazing water columns. .

The Neon Navy’s 190 main artillery counterattack was so pale and feeble, only when the two sides got closer, they would regain a slight disadvantage.

"Damn monkey, why is their cruiser bombarded so accurately."

Ryoto Matsuda, their commander on the Kawauchi, couldn't help feeling depressed. He looked at the level of shelling and his own. The most recent one was two hundred meters away from the Storm. How could it be hit?

"Speed ​​up! Speed ​​up! Get closer!"

"What are the artillery doing? Didn't they eat?"

Ryoto Matsuda couldn't help cursing, so he could only bring the warship closer, and put his anger on the gunner.

In fact, these gunners are also very innocent. Although they have been in the Navy for a long time, the amount of training is pitiful.No one only fires hundreds of rounds, including those practice rounds, and live ammunition exercises are even rarer.

The distance between the two sides narrowed to six kilometers. At this time, Kawauchi's 105 guns had begun to fight back, which made Matsuda breathe a sigh of relief, at least they were not far behind in the momentum of the guns.

However, his complexion soon turned black, and his tense nerves could no longer relax.

"boom!"

With the sound of a huge explosion, the ship of Kawauchi shook violently, a terrifying fire ignited, and one of their 190 main guns had become a pile of scrap iron, and the gunners inside were even more so. Turn into mashed meat.

Neon cruisers sacrificed more thoroughly than the Qing cruisers in armor. Even with the help of John, their technology is far inferior to Qing. You must know that John's shipbuilding technology is not necessarily ahead of the Qing.

And the master often wants to keep a hand, so in order to increase the speed, they can only see love you and sacrifice the armor to the extreme.

The 58mm thick cannon cover armor cannot withstand the attack of 180mm armor-piercing projectiles at all, and the result can be imagined.

When the first shot hit, Da Qing's gunners had only a glimmer of excitement. For them, the hits are now below the usual training level. If they had been punished by the instructor with their ears, they would have stood still.

However, the first time they participated in the war, they were somewhat nervous. After all, their super-level performance was also in a stable state of mind, extremely concentrated, and the whole person entered a state of selflessness.

At this time, the shelling of other cruisers in the Qing Dynasty also achieved certain results, but it did not cause serious damage to the enemy ship. On the other hand, the shelling of neon was so horrible...
