Super Dictator

The four ships of the Japanese First Guerrilla Force were approaching fiercely. What was even more alarming was that Yuhiro Ito, who received the news from behind, was even more excited. He was worried that he would not be able to find a chance to invade the harbor, but now the Beiyang Fleet came to the door on its own. coming.

"Courage is commendable, but it is true that one does not overestimate his own capabilities. Gentlemen, let us, the Japanese fleet, destroy the Beiyang fleet tonight and accomplish this unparalleled feat." Ito Yuhiro shouted ambitiously.

The Chinese and Japanese fleets had deep grudges long before the Sino-Japanese War.

Li Hongzhang once sent the Beiyang Fleet to show off in Nagasaki, Japan. After the fleet officers and soldiers came ashore, they went to prostitutes and had a conflict with the Japanese, causing a firefight. In the end, both sides suffered casualties. The Japanese felt that they had been greatly insulted, and the Japanese Navy even more He hated the Beiyang Fleet deeply.

At this time, Ito Yuheng was naturally overjoyed when he saw that the humiliation could be repaid.

At this time, thousands of artillery guns were fired on the sea surface of Weihaiwei, and the momentum was overwhelming.

Pingyuan, Jingyuan, Jiyuan, Zhenyuan and other ships, led by the flagship Dingyuan, fought more and more fiercely. Everyone knew that this was the most critical moment. Once most of the Japanese fleet arrived, they wanted to escape. It's much more difficult, so I don't dare not try my best.

In the Battle of the Yellow Sea, although the Beiyang Fleet lost several ships, its original force was not injured. The two armored ships Dingyuan and Zhenyuan are still there. Unfortunately, Lin Taizeng, the commander of Zhenyuan, committed suicide due to the accident. Now the person commanding the Zhenyuan ship is Yang Yonglin.

In the command tower of the Dingyuan, Ding Ruchang stood beside Liu Buchan with an anxious look on his face, watching Liu Buchan quickly issue various orders, but he could not be of much help.

He just said from the side: "Zixiang, time is urgent, time is urgent."

Liu Buchan knew what he meant and calmly replied: "Admiral, please rest assured, the enemy ships are rampant. Only by frightening them can we leave calmly."

Liu Buchan saw that the Naniwa was damaged, but still rushed forward. A cold smile appeared on his lips. Without any hesitation, he immediately ordered to send a signal to Zhenyuan and Pingyuan, asking them to abandon the other Japanese ships and join him instead. Siege of Naniwa.

The other pipes that received the signal deflected slightly, and the fleet immediately surrounded the Naniwa in a herringbone shape.

Seeing this situation, Dongxiang knew something was wrong. He was frightened and wanted to reduce the speed, but he rushed too fast.

boom…

The three ships bombarded at the same time, with overwhelming momentum.

A bomb hit the belly of the Naniwa, and the Naniwa was immediately penetrated. Before the Japanese in the sailor's room had time to shout, a powerful bomb fell on it.

Broken arms and limbs flew everywhere, blood sprayed everywhere, and a vacuum zone was formed in the center of the explosion. Not even a Japanese body was left behind, and the surrounding areas were filled with wounded soldiers groaning everywhere.

They were either hit by shrapnel, or the shock wave caused by the explosion displaced their internal organs and caused bleeding from seven holes.

Internal organs and minced meat were scattered all over the floor, and the Naniwa became a living hell on earth.

A raging fire was lit.

When Dongxiang saw this, he was so angry that he burst into smoke and yelled: "Charge towards the enemy ship."

The Japanese aboard the Naniwa were all silently following Togo's orders. However, the Naniwa was hit by several shots, and water began to seep into the hull. Finally, it was overwhelmed, tipped to the side, and was about to sink into the water.

Seeing the other ships of the Japanese First Guerrilla Group, their arrogance could not help but weaken, and their attack could not help but slow down.

Seeing this, Liu Buchan ordered the entire ship to sail away from the side at full speed.

"Report, the Guang Bing and several other torpedo boats have left the battlefield." The signal soldier reported loudly.

"What, this damn Chen Biguang!" Ding Ruchang's face turned livid and he cursed bitterly.

Liu Buchan was also very angry, but he immediately came to his senses and said: "Don't worry about it, we will continue to evacuate according to the original route."

It turned out that Chen Biguang of the Guang Bing was greedy for life and feared death. When he saw that the Dingyuan and other ships were fighting fiercely with the Japanese ships, he took the opportunity to retreat and walked west along the coast.

Chen Biguang believed that with Dingyuan and other large ships attracting the attention of Japanese ships, his chances of escaping alone would be greatly increased. Seeing this, several other torpedo boats also followed him quietly.

I had never thought that Chen Biguang was going out today without bringing his almanac, and he was simply seeking death. Ito Yuhiro's four ships, 'Matsushima', 'Chiyoda', 'Itsukushima', and 'Hashidate', were speeding from this direction. Come.

Yuhiro Ito had already set up a dragnet outside the port, with his own team and the first guerrilla fleet as the left wing, cruising back and forth in the western waters, and the second, third, and fourth guerrilla fleets as the right wing, on the east side of the port. Warning in sea areas.

As soon as the Beiyang Fleet took action against the First Guerrillas, these four small fleets surrounded them from all directions like wolves that smelled blood. This is why Dongxiang dared to charge forward regardless of the consequences, because he knew that his own fleet could Come over in the shortest possible time.

It's a pity that he guessed the outcome but not the beginning. He guessed the fate of others but not his own. In the end, he had no choice but to fall into the water depressedly and watch the Naniwa sink.

On the flagship 'Matsushima', Yuhiro Ito and Captain Omoto of the Matsushima were standing on the bridge, looking at the flames soaring into the sky in the distance.

Yuhiro Ito thought that a certain ship of the Beiyang Fleet had been hit. He couldn't help but smile triumphantly at Omoto and said: "The Beiyang Fleet is destroying itself. It's not easy to talk nonsense if you want to escape from my dragnet."

Omoto knew with a look of admiration on his face that he said: "It's all well arranged by your Excellency the Commander!"

Woo…

The warning sound on the ship suddenly sounded, and a messenger hurried over and reported loudly: "Your Excellency, Commander, four enemy ships have been spotted directly ahead!"

"Haha, just in time! Order all ships to use full power and not let any enemy ship go." Yuheng Ito was overjoyed. He didn't expect that he hadn't arrived at the battlefield yet, so he had an appetite first.

"Hai!" Omoto knew that he hurried back to the command tower to direct the operations of each ship.

The Japanese ship saw Guang Bing and other ships, and Chen Biguang also saw it soon. The massive Japanese ship came with overwhelming force. How could his small torpedo cruiser withstand it?

^.^，

Chen Biguang's face was ashen, his intestines were blue with regret, and he didn't even have the courage to face the enemy. He shouted in panic: "Quick, quick, avoid the enemy ships and go back immediately."

It was better not to escape, but the escape caused the fleet sailors to panic. They were thrown into confusion and were caught up by the Songdao not long after.

Chen Biguang quickly asked the sergeant to raise a white flag and surrender to the enemy. However, it was really difficult to see clearly at night. Omoto knew that he had just entered the battlefield and was full of murderous intent. He would be waiting there. Several ships surrounded him and they fought for a while. Guang Bing and other ships were left without bones. live.

After Liu Buchan led the fleet to kill the Naniwa, he hurried forward, but the Japanese second, third, and fourth guerrilla fleets had already rushed to the sea. Fuso, Kongo, Oshima and other ships saw the tragic situation of the Naniwa, and they all surrounded them in anger. Come up.

Seeing that they were about to fall short, Liu Buchan and Ding Ruchang were both depressed.

Yang Yonglin, the commander of the Zhenyuan at the rear of the fleet, was not an ordinary person. Seeing the crisis ahead, he felt anxious. He knew that if this continued, the fleet would sooner or later be surrounded by the Japanese, and the whole army would end up being destroyed. .

what to do? Standing on the bridge, Yang Yonglin was sweating on his forehead. As the enemy ship approached, he became more and more anxious. He gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart.

"Stop advancing and prepare for battle." Yang Yonglin clenched his fists, looked closely at the first mate next to him, and continued: "Send a signal to other ships and ask them to retreat quickly. We, the Zhenyuan, will buy them some time. ”

"Take control!" The first mate was shocked, but seeing the helplessness and determination in Yang Yonglin's eyes, he swallowed the words and nodded heavily.

After receiving Yang Yonglin's completely suicidal order, a commotion broke out on the Zhenyuan.

The first mate took off his hat, knelt on the ground, and cried in tears: "Brothers, I am as afraid of death as you are, but seeing that our Beiyang fleet will be destroyed, and other brothers will not be able to escape, sacrifice my Zhenyuan ship If we can save other fleet brothers, I will be willing to do so. The other brothers will definitely help us avenge ourselves. Therefore, we died well and the Beiyang Fleet will remember us!"

"Brothers, long live the Beiyang Fleet, kill and avenge our fallen brothers."

All the officers and soldiers were hot-blooded men. When their blood was aroused, they all shouted in unison, with tears in their eyes, waiting for death to come without any panic.

"What, the Zhenyuan turned around to meet the enemy, what the hell is Yang Yonglin doing! Doesn't he want to die?" Ding Ruchang roared and shouted.

"Admiral, they are sacrificing their lives to buy us time to escape." The first mate of the Dingyuan burst into tears.

Liu Buchan also stared intently at the Zhenyuan, which turned to face the enemy.

Seeing this, the other ships traveling behind slowed down.

Qiu Baoren, the commander of the "Laiyuan", then ordered to turn around to face the enemy. "Baofa" and "Weiyuan" stopped, as well as several gunboats and torpedo boats. Knowing that their speed was slow and they could not escape, they all turned to face the enemy. .

For a moment, the air was filled with an air of grief and anger.

"They are all my good men from Beiyang!" Ding Ruchang burst into tears, but there was nothing he could do.

Liu Buchan said solemnly: "One day, our Chinese fleet will definitely defeat the Japanese fleet."

The righteous deeds of the Zhenyuan and Laiyuan were naturally seen by other Beiyang ships.

Brothers, just wait, we will definitely avenge you. All the naval officers and soldiers gritted their teeth and looked at the approaching Japanese fleet in the distance.

"Your Excellency, Commander, eight enemy ships have separated from the fleet, stopped advancing, and are waiting for us in front." The Japanese immediately discovered the actions of the Beiyang Fleet.

"The mantis blocks the car! Only eight small ships dare to compete with the Imperial Japanese Fleet." Ito Yuhiro, who had already rushed over, continued without blinking: "The whole ship changed the battle formation, with 'T' Meet the enemy, defeat them, and then continue the pursuit."

He believed that it would not take long to deal with these eight enemy ships!

The two fleets were getting closer and closer, and there was a roar. I didn't know which side fired first.

Nearly thirty Japanese warships quickly formed a long battle line and pounced on the eight Chinese warships lined up in the northwest direction.

The Japanese have been working hard for a long time, and with a desire to avenge their shame, they train hard every day. Their officers and soldiers are skilled in operations and have a high hit rate. They are not comparable to the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Fleet who turned around to face the enemy with only enthusiasm.

There was a rain of bullets. In just ten minutes, eight warships were hit one after another. The Laiyuan was hit in the middle by an enemy ship and immediately exploded into two pieces and began to sink slowly.

Guan Qiu Baoren sank into the sea with his love boat.

The Zhenyuan was hit by an armor-piercing shell that penetrated the central turret and exploded in the tower, igniting the gunpowder bag. Yang Yonglin's legs were blown off. At this critical moment, he struggled to order the water to be poured into the ammunition compartment through the sound tube, and then the Zhenyuan was fired. The Zhenyuan was spared the fate of the Laiyuan.

Unfortunately, the enemy continued to bombard. Yang Yonglin saw that the Japanese fleet was so rampant that it was not far away from his own warship. He couldn't help but use his hands and feet to get up, roared and shouted: "I will ram the enemy ship even if I die." Pull up a backrest."

"Haha! So happy, these Chinese people can only show off their bravery!"

Seeing that not one of his own warships was injured, Ito Yuhiro had already caused one sinking and two damage to the enemy, and he couldn't help but put down his telescope happily.

What happened to the Laiyuan made the management of several other ships furious. They saw the Zhenyuan recklessly ramming towards the enemy ship. They no longer hesitated and sailed towards the same enemy ship at the same time.

There was a loud bang, and the Japanese cruiser Chiyoda was hit.

There were endless sounds of crunching and booming, and the fire lit up half of the sky.

"Baga, order the whole ship to continue the pursuit and let these Chinese people bury themselves in the water." Ito Yuheng's face turned red with anger.

That night, the Beiyang Fleet fled north, and the Japanese pursued them all the way. In the end, only the three cruisers Dingyuan, Pingyuan, and Jiyuan, the three gunboats Zhenbei, Zhennan, and Zhendong, as well as some torpedo boats and auxiliary ships were able to take advantage of the situation. Night escape.

Most of the Beiyang Fleet was surrounded and suppressed by the Japanese in the Bohai Sea, and either surrendered or died heroically. The naval battles since the beginning of the Sino-Japanese War finally ended with China's complete defeat, and the Japanese fleet also lost Naniwa, Chiyoda, and Itsukushima. of several ships.
