Chapter 845 The Decentness of the Great Tomorrow Dynasty (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)
airship!

From the moment it appeared in Montevideo Harbor, everything was doomed.

Although those warships are still tenaciously resisting the bombing from the air with their own armor and the solid central iron fortress, it is only a matter of time before they sink or are destroyed.

"Battleship? This is really...very strong!"

Observing the targets at sea from the air, Ma Guangming looked at the warships shrouded in flames and smoke, and said with a sigh,

"The Central Iron Armor Fort really lives up to its reputation!"

The deputy captain An Yangzhi smiled and said,
"No matter how well-deserved the reputation is, what's the use? No, let's let us bomb, anyway, war is like this--if you fall behind, you will be beaten!"

If you fall behind, you will be beaten!

An Yangzhi didn't know the meaning of the wise words he said, he just used words to describe the simple reality in front of him.

Nodding his head, Ma Guangming said:

"Okay, after today, the whole world will know that in front of the airship, the once powerful navy is not worth mentioning at all. Let's send them all into the sea."

"I am very sure of that!"

An Yang smiled proudly.

In their proud smiles, the airship troops lined up in two columns in the air, followed the flagship ship, and flew over the enemy ships on the sea one by one at an altitude of 500 meters at a speed of less than 50 kilometers per hour and continuously dropped bombs.

While the airship troops were bombing and bombing, the photographer on the airship faithfully recorded all this with a camera,
No naval serviceman would have believed all this had it not been recorded on film footage!
What they saw was an unbelievable scene-the airship defeated the battleship!

And the way of defeat is simply incredible!
In fact, all of this is taken for granted. After all, in the past few years, Ming’s airship troops have been doing everything possible to improve the bombing accuracy. No questions asked.

Now the method of airship bombing a battleship is very simple. It is to slowly fly to the front of the battleship. Because the speed of the airship is very slow, it naturally flies very stably, so the accuracy of the bomb dropping will not be too far. With the addition of bombing sights The accuracy is naturally extremely impressive. A hit rate of more than 5% may not seem very good, but as long as a few bombs hit the warship, it can also cause unimaginable damage to the warship.

Moreover, as long as the number of airships is large enough, enough bombs can be dropped, so the same hit rate can naturally be guaranteed.

这一次，大明一共出动了72艘飞艇，每艘飞艇都携带18枚200公斤炸弹，总归有1296枚200公斤的炸弹。如果平均的命中率可以达到5%，巴西军舰就得挨上超过64枚200公斤的炸弹，另外还有至少20%到30%的近失弹！

In other words, on average, each warship will be hit with at least 8 aerial bombs. This kind of bombing, let alone those warships in this era that don't have top armor at all, even if the dreadnoughts come over, they can't stand this kind of bombing. bombing!
Especially when most of these warships were berthed in the berthing area, the airship troops simply chose to drop bombs in a semi-hover mode after they were in the air, which directly led to a double increase in the accuracy of the hit.

In the next few tens of minutes, the surviving Brazilian warships completely became targets. The four seemingly strong "Riachuelo"-class battleships had to be bombed passively because they had no time at all. Pressurize the boiler and rely on maneuvering to avoid aerial bombardment.

But now, they can only be bombed in the anchorage port... After all, it takes time for the steam boiler to boil water!

Before the water boils, the boat will be gone.

Finally, accompanied by a violent explosion, a violent explosion occurred under the destroyed turret of the "Riachuelo" amidships. The battleship whose ammunition depot was hit was directly blown into two pieces, and then Even the cannons were blown into the air by hundreds of meters.

In the billowing smoke, everyone was stunned—this was the first time an airship sank a battleship!
History was frozen at this moment!

……

The "Riachuelo" became the first battleship ever to be sunk!

When he received the telegram from the floating troops, Emperor Zhu was stunned for a while, and then an extremely excited smile appeared on his face.

"Haha, I knew that this attack would definitely succeed!"

The reason why Emperor Zhu was so excited was because he proposed the "airship air strike" plan, and the results of the airship troops now prove his wisdom!

Of course, for Emperor Zhu, this is not the most important thing.

What is the most important thing?
Of course, Ming's airship unit once again showed the world its powerful and invincible strength.

"Overnight, all warships will be eliminated!"

Emperor Zhu laughed out loud.

After the battleship "Riachuelo" was bombed and sunk by the airship, and the Brazilian fleet was destroyed by Ming's airship, there will definitely be another airship craze in the world!

This time it's even more frenzied than last time, because airships will fundamentally change the state of land and sea warfare.

"Those small countries in Europe must also manufacture a large number of airships! They may not be able to maintain a large fleet, but it is still possible to maintain dozens of airships."

Emperor Zhu said heartily:
"It seems that the aircraft must be produced as soon as possible. With the aircraft, you can use incendiary bombs to hit the airship. When the time comes to use the aircraft to hit the airship, it is simply a win... In addition, the air defense of the battleship must be strengthened as soon as possible... Well, it can be considered Let’s talk about anti-aircraft guns. Anyway, Daming has successfully developed a rapid-fire gun, but the best thing is to improve the Gatling. The trajectory of the current 30mm Gatling is too curved. You can improve the shells, but don’t turn around and let those Europeans come. It's a "teacher and a long plan to make a bright"."

Just thinking of this, the attendant suddenly reported loudly:

"Your Majesty, the ambassador to Brazil sent an urgent telegram stating that a declaration of war has been submitted to the Brazilian Empire in the seventh year of Sidley, that is, at 1876:7 am on July 30, [-] AD..."

"Haha, the time is just right!"

Emperor Zhu laughed and said loudly,
"The airship bombed at [-]:[-]. That is to say, our attack on the Brazilian fleet was a normal attack, not a surprise attack. Well, from the perspective of public international law, we still occupy the moral high ground!"

Daming is a country that pays great attention to public international law. Who told me that Ming is a civilized country?

Daming never engages in any kind of sneak attack. He declares war first and then attacks. Although it takes less than ten minutes, from a legal point of view, there is no provocation!
Sneak attack, that's something that little Japan can do.

I am Ming Dynasty, of course Tangtangtianchao declared first and then fought
