Heaven's Change of Fate

Chapter 58
Dadonggou in the Yellow Sea is just a small point on the chart, but in the actual sea area, the area is extremely large.Yang Xin led the Dehua United Fleet and did not sail into this sea area, but hid in this sea area.

With a clear view above the sea, the Dehua United Fleet can only avoid the sight of the Japanese and Beiyang Navy through distance and maneuvering. At the same time, Yang Xin also scattered the submarines and let the submarines detect through the periscope to act as the eyes of the fleet. .Yang Xin is equipped with transmitters on every warship and every submarine in the German-Chinese United Fleet, so Yang Xin can get first-hand information, which is convenient for the fleet to maneuver out of the enemy's sight.

At this time, the submarine is still a secret weapon. Whether it is the United Fleet of the Japanese Kingdom or the Beijing Navy, there is no advanced equipment such as sonar detectors at all. Observing the enemy's situation depends entirely on lookouts and binoculars. Therefore, it is a wise move for the submarine to act as eyes. But it was also a helpless move.

"Junzuo, will the combined Japanese fleet come?" Nalan Yuanshu asked.

Nalan Yuanshu has always been curious, where did Yang Xin get the information that can accurately track the whereabouts of the Japanese United Fleet and the Beiyang Navy to the second.

Nalan Yuanshu can still understand if the whereabouts of the Beiyang Navy can be found so clearly, but it is too incredible to be able to find out the whereabouts of the Japanese United Fleet so clearly.Nalan Yuanshu once mobilized his own power to find out the whereabouts of the Japanese fleet, but he didn't find out even a hair. It can be seen that the Japanese country has taken extremely strict precautions in order to bet on this battle of national fortune.

"Yes, the combined Japanese fleet will come." Yang Xin said with certainty.

As soon as Yang Xin finished speaking, the messenger immediately sent a message: "Report, our department has discovered that the Beiyang Navy has begun to return."

Yang Xin looked at his watch. It was already [-]:[-] am on September [-], [-]. In the next four hours, the Beiyang Navy would encounter the United Fleet of the Japanese Kingdom and then break out in East Asia. Greatest naval battle ever.

All Yang Xin has to do is wait until the snipe and clam fight each other, and then the fisherman will benefit.

Sun Wen, Huang Feihong, Liang Kuan, Thirteenth Aunt, Jiugong and others also knew that this battle was not only a turning point to change the fate of Japan, but also a turning point to change the fate of China, and it was also a turning point to change the world pattern. With an equally excited and manic heart, he closed his eyes and meditated, striving to face this war with the best mental state.

Prince Heinrich and the German Navy seemed much more relaxed from officers to soldiers. In their view, even if the Beiyang Fleet and the Japanese United Fleet joined forces, they were not their opponents. The division and the United Fleet of the Wa Kingdom are not their opponents.

After all, strength lies there.

Yang Xin thought that he could be as calm as water, but he didn't expect that he would be very nervous in the face of this battle. Yang Xin licked his lips that were dry due to nervousness, took a deep breath to calm himself down, and at the same time let the submarine troop closely monitor the area. In the sea area, if there is any disturbance, immediately send a report.

"Report! Black smoke was found in the southwest of Beiyang Navy's location, which is suspected to be the United Fleet of the Japanese Kingdom." The voice of the communication soldier came.

The eyes of Yang Xin and others lit up instantly.

"The United Fleet of the Japanese Kingdom is here, and they are finally here." Yang Xin took a deep breath and said calmly, "Explore again."

Three to 10 minutes after Yang Xin's order was issued, the latest enemy news came, "It was discovered that the warships Yoshino, Takachiho, Akitsusu, Naniwa, Matsushima, Chiyoda, Itsukushima, Akili, and Bi Twelve warships, Rui, Fuso, Xijingmaru, and Chicheng."

The news was confirmed, and everyone's nervous hearts finally calmed down. They were not afraid that the combined fleet of the Japanese country would come, but they were afraid that the combined fleet of the Japanese country would not come.

The United Fleet of the Japanese Kingdom can be said to be the best of the best. On the other hand, the same is true for the Beiyang Navy. , Guangjia, Guangbing, Zhennan, Zhenzhong two gunboats and Fulong, left one, right two, right three or four torpedo boats.

From the perspective of the displacement and quantity of warships alone, the Beiyang Navy is not weaker than the Japanese United Fleet, but the main battleship of the Beiyang Navy, Badayuan, has been in service for more than ten years, and its equipment is aging, while the warships of the Japanese United Fleet are The most advanced warship at this time is far stronger in speed and firepower than the Beiyang Navy, and weaker than the Beiyang Navy in terms of armor.

"Report, the combined Japanese fleet has begun to approach the Beiyang navy." The signal soldier will report the latest battle situation to Yang Xin's flagship in a timely manner.

After another 10 minutes, it was already [-]:[-], and the latest battle situation came, "Report, the Dingyuan ship fired, and the battle began!"

"Finally the battle begins!"

"The war is on!"

Sun Wen, Huang Feihong and others began to gear up and eager to try.

"Wait, wait until they both lose, and remember our combat goal: wipe out the combined Japanese fleet and capture the Beiyang Navy." Yang Xin said in a deep voice.

After receiving Yang Xin's order, everyone began to calm down and pay attention to the battle at sea.

Not long after the battle began, Dingyuan, the flagship of the Beiyang Fleet, had been in disrepair for 12 years. The bridge was knocked down by a cannon fired suddenly, Ding Ruchang was injured, and the letter flag was destroyed.Although Ding Ruchang refused his followers to put himself into the inner cabin, he insisted on sitting on the deck to supervise the battle.But he could only boost the morale of one ship. As soon as the battle started, the Beiyang Fleet lost its command and could only fight on its own.

"Trash!" Nalan Yuanshu said angrily after hearing the battle report.

"And Li Hongzhang and Li Zhongtang, why did Ding Ruchang, who was born in the army, be appointed as the admiral of the navy? In terms of naval warfare, Liu Buchan, Deng Shichang, and Lin Taizeng are all naval professionals. Which one is better than him?" Nalan Yuanshu scolded Li Hongzhang again. .

"This is Zhengzhi. Ding Ruchang has profound qualifications. He has compiled a new army, has a certain understanding of Westernization, and has gone overseas many times to buy ships. The most important thing is that Ding Ruchang and Li Hongzhang are fellow villagers." Yang Xin said quietly.

"Damn it!" Nalan Yuanshu said bitterly. As a bannerman, Nalan Yuanshu certainly understood that the imperial court's selection of talent was not based on whether the person had talent, but on his background.

"Why didn't Liu Buchan raise the general flag and continue to command the battle?" Nalan Yuanshu asked with a gloomy face.

"Because Ding Ruchang is not dead yet, and it is because Ding Ruchang does not delegate power." Yang Xin said coldly.

Nalan Yuanshu was silent, clenched his fists, but he had no choice but to understand the battle situation ahead through the communication soldiers.

Because the Beiyang Navy lost the command of the flagship, they could only fight on their own. Fortunately, each ship fought bravely under the leadership of its own leader, so that the battle situation did not appear one-sided, but evenly matched, each with its own damage.

"When shall we do it?" Nalan Yuanshu asked suddenly.

"Wait for the right time." Yang Xin said, while letting the fleet start heading towards the war zone.

At this time, whether it was the United Fleet of the Japanese Kingdom or the Beiyang Navy, they only had their opponents in their eyes, ignoring the United Fleet of Germany and China that was slowly approaching.

"Report, Beiyang Navy's Chaoyong has sunk."

"Report, the Jiyuan and Guangjia ships of the Beiyang Navy escaped in battle."

Yang Xin's face darkened instantly.
