On April 28, 1898, fifteen north of Manila.

"Observation Tower Report: Discover land."

"Adjusting the direction, the fleet turns left, and the horizontal fighting formation."

The Taishan, Huashan, Hengshan, and twelve destroyers formed South China's main fleet.

Of course, the Spanish people do not need to dispatch all the three main ships, but the difficulty of South China lies not in the Spanish.

Japan in the north, France in the west, and Tsar wandering everywhere are not fuel -saving lamps. The main fleet gathered. Once there is a change, you can hit a carbine.

After the formation, Gu Fan ordered: "Send the investigation fleet to observe the enemy's situation."

The two artillery destroyers broke away from the formation and drove straight towards Manila.

"We are here, and the enemy hasn't responded yet?" Gu Fan was quite puzzled in the commander tower.

"Based on various intelligence, it can be determined that the Spanish fleet has gathered. It is currently mooring in the Hong Kong without signs of sailing." The Da Deputy looked at the latest communication records, and the last confirmation was half an hour ago.

Half an hour, calculating the time of coal ignition, the boiler has not been burned yet, and the enemy should have no action.

..............

"You guys, hurry up! Put on the shells, throw them in the sea, hurry up!" Admiral Hokle's Navy was on the flagship Lena Christina to direct the sailor.

"General, how did the enemy come directly? There was no news from Subic Bay ..." The captain was puzzled, while inquiring with General General Commander.

Hawkl's fatigue is frequent, like a bad old man: "Maybe, people did not go to Subic Bay at all ..."

The Subick Bay is the station of the Lumon Fleet in Spain. Before the war began, General Hokle's Navy deeply felt that the Spanish fleet had insufficient combat power, but the main force of the Navy gathered in Cuba, and there was no time to come.

In order to preserve the combat power, the fleet had been cleaned up long ago. As soon as I heard the war, it moved to Manila Bay. In the shallow water area, even if they were defeated, they could save their lives.

And there are shore anti -turrets cover, maybe to keep it?

"News came from Sulu Island, South China had landed, and there were news from multiple islands in the south, and found that the South China warship was found." The chief of staff also said frustrated.

People are accurate, and even if the fleet is preserved, there is no way to keep the Luzon Islands. And people know clearly that the fleet is concentrated in Manila Bay, and there is no time to respond ...

"Jue Du Lujue? What did he come to do?" The big pair of his eyes, looking at the communications ship hurriedly, asked in a doubt: "Is it the latest order in the local area?"

The big deputy hopes are surrender. The youngest ship in the Luzon fleet also has more than ten years. The fastest ship is a torpedo boat. It can run 14 quarters. The flagship Kristina can only run out of ten sections.

The firepower is not as good as others. The armor is also the old -fashioned artillery in the shore anti -turret. In the past, it was mainly equipped with artillery, and the people would not have much harm to the rushing in.

"Not good -looking, Weilles escaped!" The communications ship did not bring an order to surrender, let alone good news.

"What! This dog hybrid! When did he run?" Hockl was furious. He ran, his army was out of his heart, and Manila was designated to stand, and the pot was his turn on his head.

"I don't know, this morning, the Governor's House went to the building, and no one saw where he ran!" Said the person who came to lose his soul.

Hokle looked at the soldiers who panicked because of the Governor's escape, and yelled: "What are panic! From now on, Manila takes it up from me, the army goes to guard the aircraft, maintain the order in the city, establish a line of defense, build street bases, and build street bases.

Ask the consulates of various countries, do you know the trace of Weilles! The war has begun, and he has nowhere to hide except the consulate! "

The current situation has reached this point. Hawkel has no choice. You can't surrender if you can't shot without a shot? Anyway, the Spanish fleet is called an invincible fleet!

"For the king!" Hawker shouted.

"For the king ~" The sailors were weak.

The naval treatment was poor, the colonial sailor was worse, and Luzon ranked second in the Spanish colony, and it was even worse.

"For Spain!"

"For Spain ~"

"For the glory of the navy!"

"For the glory of the navy ~~"

The sound is big, but that tone is like studying ...

"Well ~" Hawkel sighed: "God bless Spain." He painted a cross on his body, and only God could expect God.

"The enemy is approaching!" The screaming sounded, and the rapid alarm sounded, and they kept concentrating one by one, operating weapons.

... ...

The Manila Bay is a very open semi -open bay. At this time, it is not suitable for the abilities of the army and it is not convenient to defend. Unless driving to the bottom, only the shore -defense cannon on the island can attack.

"Discover the second artillery position. According to information, the three -door 120 mm rear rear steel cannon, six doors of about 150 mm front -borne guns."

Gu Fan didn't speak, and the artillery position was still a bit far away. He was doubting: "For an hour, the enemy's navy hasn't moved yet ... Will there be fraud?"

No one can understand, such as the artillery position in front of you, the role of the artillery position on this island is to warn, delay time, and cooperate with the navy attack to commit the enemy.

The stability of the shore anti -artillery is much stronger than the warship, and it can be almost infinitely stacked (although the Spaniards did not do this ...), the navy came out and cooperated with a wave of waves, how could it be a bit effective.

(The United States and Western War, Americans used several protective cruisers to solve the Spanish Luzon fleet. They still rushed into the Manila Bay and killed and special. It was really outrageous.

"Let's unplug this firepower first. Let's talk about the fleet, the destroyer came to the way, and the mines are puppet." Gu Fan couldn't figure out what he thought, he could only watch while fighting.

"brake!"

"The host output power is 1/4, and the flight is unchanged!"

"The main gun is prepared, no need to wait for the command, and it will be launched if you are aiming."

203 mm main guns raised their heads slowly ...

The artillery is furious to calibrate the yuan, loading artillery shells.

"Put!" Aimed at the finish, the gun officer put the electric button, and the deafening voice sounded.

boom!

After flying a few seconds, the shell fell into the sea.

BOO!

The first published in this book: -

Stir up a water column.

"Add one high and low, to the fifth left." After the adjustment, it was launched again.

boom!

BOO! This time it fell on the island. As for the only deviation, it was caused by the swing of the hull. Even if there was a synchronous agency, it could not be completely ignored.

Both the Taishan and Hengshan are shot, so that it can maximize the accuracy.

The Huashan is different. After many explorations, the Five Moon level has learned how to shoot (shooting is not just firing together.)

"Calculate the yuan, the former main gun is added to the right, the post -main gun is reduced, the reducing medicine is reduced, and it is ready to launch."

After multiple rounds of exploration, the main guns of the Wuyue -level can be stimulated by the fire control room. The fire control room has just been established. It consists of several people with good mathematics and several elite artillery.

The instrument is a four -handed computer, four telephones, and a electric button. Essence

"No. 1 turret, complete!"

The first published in this book: -

"No. 2 turret, complete!"

"No. 3 turret, complete!"

"Fire!"

The guns were pressed against the electric button, and the three main guns fired together.

boom! 6

The six artillery shells were scattered in irregular forms. After flying for nearly ten seconds, four rounds fell on the island, and they fell on the sea in front of the island, which stirred a splash that mixed mud.

"Perfect! Continue shooting!" Li Jin smashed his fist.

BOO! Intersection

Before the second round of fire was turned on, the island suddenly rose huge black smoke, and the fire flickered in the middle. After ten seconds, the explosion came.

Gu Fan put down the observation remote mirror and nodded: "Qi Shun really can play the advantage of firepower. This island is gone.

..............

"A huge explosion came in front of it. The observation tower claimed that the turret saw the black smoke, and it was suspected to explode."

"The morale of the troops in the city is low, and the Luzon auxiliary troops have three restlessness.

"Germans, British, French, accepted the request of shelter to protect the diaspora, but they could not leave the embassy area, and they must not carry weapons."

Hawkl took over Manila protection and ran from sea to the shore. After all, the navy was fierce and could only delay for a few days.

"Pay the news, let everyone want to go to the consulate for refuge, don't express too much, be willing to go, unwilling to go or not, collect the militia, and also issue weapons if they are unwilling to go. The locals are not worthy of trust. Go out of the city "

Hawkel took office for only two hours, but received countless bad news, insufficient ammunition, and old, and gunpowder was still moisture.

A large number of weapons are rusty, soldiers lack training all year round, ordered the construction of street bases, and the street base does not know what it is.

The auxiliary army composed of locals also has other thoughts. There is no good news except that Britain and France are willing to accommodate diaspora.

The first published in this book: -

"So many layers of defense and so many fulcrum, why don't they attack?" Gu Fan looked at another explosive island, and couldn't understand the Spaniard's approach.

This is the sixth island with turrets that has been unplugged by Nanhua, and there are two small islands behind this island, which are triangular defense. If there are several warship blessings, it will not be easy to break through even the main force of South China.

"They have no armored ships in Manila. They are all no defenders. Perhaps they want the warship to sit in the Hong Kong and act as a turret?" Said the Dazhong.

Gu Fan looked at the sky, and the sun had already fallen: "The fleet turns, the sky is almost dark, be careful of the enemy attack ...

How about the Army, is there any news? "

"The Mianlan island, which has been logged in, is the island of Bala, and is moving towards Lyte Island. There are not even a few defenders in those places.

Gu Fan sighed, and the Spaniards seemed to be going to adhere to Manila, so it was troublesome to drag, but he changed later.

"Temporary offensive, exiting the Manila Bay, after the destroyer hall, if there is a Spanish fleet out of the Hong Kong investigation, it will be killed.

It is dark, it is not safe here, and Spain appears a turtle shrinking port, making Gu Fan very headache and rushing in directly? The danger is a bit big ...

"Apply for two teams of sea wolf -rated torpedo boats ..."
