    In the command tower of the battleship Tengfei, Jiang Shuisheng, the captain of the Yazhui mercenary naval battle brigade, was guarding his command position. He was wearing a pure white navy uniform, which made his bookish look even more heroic and elegant.  At this moment, his face showed urgency, and he said to Liu Zhenhua, who was sitting on a chair in the control tower cabin, seeming to be making a difficult decision: "Zhenhua, let us go up! No matter what happens to the Qing Dynasty, the warring party in front of us is  Our Chinese fleet!" Liu Zhenhua pondered without answering. Xie Wenyuan, the eldest son of the Xie family who has officially served as the chief of staff of the Yajuan team, couldn't help but interjected: "Brother Shuisheng, don't rush to urge Zhenhua to take action now.  At this point, even if we go to help, it¡¯s just the icing on the cake, so we¡¯d better wait and see. Only by providing help in times of crisis can we show our deep affection!¡± ¡°Well done, Xie Wenyuan,  I don¡¯t see that you are getting more and more sinister now! The officers and soldiers on the warships of the Beiyang Navy are all Chinese brothers with the same culture and blood. Zhenhua has always said that the Chinese people in the world are one family.  I think you have forgotten to go to Java, you think we are just passing by to make soy sauce!" Jiang Shuisheng angrily said something to Xie Wenyuan, and also borrowed a catchphrase that Liu Zhenhua often talked about.  "Haha, Captain Jiang, since you are not willing to listen, just pretend that I didn't say anything and let's wait for the young master to make a decision." The good-tempered Xie Wenyuan was not angry and smiled in front of the somewhat angry Yaizhen.  Captain of the naval battle group.  "Report, the latest battle report from the forward observation submarine." An adjutant trotted over with a telegram under his arm.  "Read it quickly!" "Three minutes ago, the Beiyang Fleet's flagship Dingyuan was hit, Admiral Ding Ruchang was burned, and the command flag was damaged. The Beiyang Navy's Super Brave Ship and Yangwei Ship were hit and caught fire one after another, and they have withdrawn from the battle. Japanese Battle  The three ships Rui, Akagi, and Xijing Maru were also severely damaged. The main force of the Japanese combined fleet was heading to the rear of the Beiyang Fleet, intending to form an encirclement and attack with its first guerrilla force. Because Ding Ruchang refused the command signal issued by the Zhenyuan ship, the Beiyang Fleet was now trapped.  They are fighting on their own and working together in a small area. After listening to the adjutant reading the latest battle report, Jiang Shuisheng turned his attention to Liu Zhenhua again and shouted urgently: "Zhenhua! Look" "Order, all ships rise to fight.  Flag, maintain the offensive formation, unfurl the gun jackets, prepare for battle, use full power, and set sail! Send a message to the two submarines in front, telling them to prepare torpedoes and be ready to intercept Japanese warships trying to escape!  Let's go and give the little devils a hard time! Leave these Japanese warships here and let them remember a little longer." After thinking for a long time, Liu Zhenhua finally issued the order to join the battle in advance.  "Okay, I know Zhenhua that you won't bear to watch your compatriots in the Beiyang Fleet suffer. I will go and give the order right away." Jiang Shuisheng jumped up with joy and quickly gave the order for the fleet to rush to the battlefield.  "Fight hard and show off the momentum of our Lanfang Navy so that the little devils will be afraid and hide when they see the Yajuan flag! The speed and firepower of our battleships are several times that of the Japanese battleships, and they are also equipped with advanced weapons  Optical rangefinder and radar assist. If you fight this battle too badly, the Yazhan Naval Battle Group will not be able to raise its head in front of the Marine Corps. I will go and lie down in the cabin and call me after the battle."  After finishing speaking, he stood up and walked out of the command tower, heading towards the rest cabin.  "Don't worry, I will never give the Marine Corps a chance to see the joke of our Marine Corps!" Jiang Shuisheng shouted behind him, turned to glare at Xie Wenyuan, called the combat staff around him, and quickly planned an attack  plan.  Liu Zhenhua walked into the rest cabin and fell on the bedside. He sighed and said to himself: "Alas, I originally planned to wait until the Beiyang Navy fleet and the Japs fought to the death, and then come out to clean up the mess. But now alas! Still!  You are too soft-hearted! Forget it, this result is not too bad. It can save more bloody patriotic elites such as Deng Shichang and Liu Buchan for the Chinese people! "The world's leading high-tech products are sailing at full speed.  Lan Fangguo's fleet is incredibly fast.  The distance of dozens of nautical miles is only in the blink of an eye.  At 13:20, the warships of Lanfang Guo's Yajuan Maritime Brigade rushed to the Japanese fast destroyer Yoshino at high speed. Captain Kawara Kaname was about to give the order to turn and attack the Zhiyuan on the left front. The soldiers on the stern were responsible for the lookout, and they were already alarmed.  He shouted in fear, "Amaterasu! The Emperor! What type of battleship is that? So big, so mighty! Alarm, alarm. An unknown fleet has been spotted approaching!" "Eighteen thousand meters!" "Fifteen thousand  Kilometers!¡± ¡°Thirteen thousand meters¡± ¡°Ten thousand meters¡± Lan Fangguo SanThe Tengfei-class battleships, in front of the Beiyang Fleet and the Japanese Combined Fleet, the largest warships of less than 10,000 tons, are like three high-speed moving steel fortresses on the sea.  "Immediately send out flags to both sides of the battlefield to indicate our identity, and tell the Beiyang Navy fleet that we are mercenaries employed by the Chinese! The Tengjiao quickly approached the Daqing Guochaoyong and carried out rescue operations. " Order again  : The main guns of Tengfei and Tengyun began to load armor-piercing shells, locked on the Japanese warships, and determined the firing sectors. They fired immediately after the flag signal showed their identity. Remember, don't think about saving shells. Give me all the Japanese warships.  "Sink! Well, I guess that's what Zhenhua meant." Jiang Shuisheng grabbed the ship-borne radio communication microphone at hand and quickly issued the battle order.  Xie Wenyuan, who was staying in the command tower to join in the fun, did not follow Liu Zhenhua away. After listening to Jiang Shuisheng's order, he couldn't help but pout and muttered in his heart, "It's vulgar and shameless. He opened fire immediately after revealing his identity. It was obvious that he wanted to  Fighting the Japanese pirates in a sudden attack, well, this guy's performance is already as good as Master Zhenhua's. Of course, compared to me, the senior advisor of the Yajuan team, Jiang Shuisheng is still a little bit behind" "Sudden appearance.  The fleet raised a flag, indicating that it was a mercenary force! Which country's fleet is this? I don't know if it is a friendly force or an enemy" The Zhiyuan's lookout post did not understand the fleet approaching rapidly from the distance.  Seeing the flag signal played by the other party, he muttered to himself in great confusion.  "No, the other party revealed their identity. Oh my god! It's the Yaju mercenaries, the army hired only by the Chinese! Enemy attack! They are the enemies of the Japanese country! Enemy attack! Alert! The enemy is approaching us quickly!   "This lookout sentry from the Japanese country had heard of the name of the mercenaries. He was incoherent, panicked, and completely frightened to the point of peeing.  "Two vehicles advance two, maintain course, accelerate!" "Two vehicles enter two! Maintain course!" "Prepare the gun positions on the bow of the ship, eight thousand meters ahead, the target is Yoshino, focus fire, and let go!" Jiang Shuisheng looked determined.  An attack order was issued.  "Boom!BoomBoom" The triple-mounted 380mm main gun on the bow of the Tengfei fired first. The thundering roar and the recoil of the artillery made the ship seem to be trembling.  All the naval guns of the Yazhan fleet are equipped with hydraulic repressors to reduce recoil.  The soldiers have become accustomed to such formations in training.  After a round of salvo fire, the gunner quickly used the mechanical computer to enter the coordinates and began to adjust the gun distance.  The ammunition hand also quickly fed the shells into the barrel, and then launched a second round of overwhelming shelling.  The main guns of each ship also fired extended-range armor-piercing projectiles equipped with delayed fuzes. The huge shells roared like raindrops and hit the little Japanese warship.  Yoshino's luck was pretty good. It was just hit on the port side by a shell fired by Ascendas, which did not cause any major damage to it.  The Japanese flagship Songdao was in misfortune. It was hit by two armor-piercing shells fired by Tengyun at the same time. One hit the bow deck, smashed the main gun in front, and then penetrated under the deck and exploded.  A large piece of the bow of the ship was cut off.  Another shell directly smashed into the control tower and exploded in the cabin. A sea of ????fire instantly spread on the Songdao. Captain Omoto knew that he was killed on the spot.  Although the Yoshino only scraped off a little bit of skin, the captain of the ship, Kaname Osaka Kawara, was startled by just that. He immediately ordered the left rudder to evade, hoping to use the cruiser's speed of 23 knots to evade.  Launch a fierce attack.  But Kawara Kaname didn¡¯t know that the speed that the Yoshino fast cruiser was proud of was nothing in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Yazhan Fleet!  Moreover, just under tens of meters of water, the acoustic torpedoes equipped by the two submarines have entered the torpedo launch tubes and are ready to be fired.  (go read it)
