Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

From the beginning of the battle to the end, the battle in the Liufa Atlantic Ocean was filled with all sorts of uncertainties, dramas and surprises. This was the first time the Chinese navy showed up in the world. It also became a classic battle that the later generations of military scientists enjoyed and constantly studied.

It was undeniable that Sun Chujian had played a very important role in the battle. In the beginning, he had only wanted to delay a little, but with their valiant fighting and Molière's reckless greed, the Kunshan had actually obtained a glorious victory.

Gauls and Kunshan died together, and the injury rate of Holiness also reached 15%. Although they could still fight, their fighting spirit as crazy as the Central Plains Alliance's army deeply shocked them.

There was no room for hesitation on the battlefield, and no time for hesitation. Seeing the French sailors struggling and begging on the sea, the Holiness quickly put down the small boat and went to save the people.

"Shoot!" "Kill these bastards …" The sailors on the boat subconsciously wanted to kill the survivors, but the captain of the Holiness stopped them.

"Everyone stop! France needs alive captives, we need a confession to engage in diplomatic negotiations with the enemy, no one is allowed to kill or capture … "

The indignant sailors dragged all the surviving students and Prussian sailors from the sea onto the boat and tied them up with ropes.

"Look, this is the Chinese commander! He was still breathing … "Hang him on the deck for treatment. He is the best captive we have. With him there, we will have a good fight!"

Just as the Holiness was sweeping the battlefield, the other two warships were advancing towards the west at full speed. Molière was very clear that one Kunshan alone could not complete such a large-scale attack.

Major General Bruce was a little cautious as he advised softly, "Just one scissor boat has such a terrifying combat power. We should be careful from time to time …"

"NO!" There was no time, these Chinese were as cunning as foxes. They knew that the sea was European, far from the mainland. They definitely did not have enough supplies, so they could not keep fighting … This ship is the tail that the gecko lost to escape! "

"Chase after them. I want to see for myself what a battleship is worth using my life to protect …"

Maybe because the Goddess of Luck had lifted her skirt towards the Frenchman, before Molière could finish speaking, the wind above the sea suddenly grew stronger, the two battleships' dragon bones began to creak, and the ship's speed rapidly increased.

Maybe Lin Zhen and Xiang Ying's argument was so intense that they couldn't even come to an agreement, so the ship lost its chance to escape. When the figure of the Glory appeared in the east, Xiang Ying finally let go of Lin Zhen's clothes and stomped his feet fiercely as he shouted, "Now you win! Everyone prepare for battle, we have been exposed... In order to protect the secrets of the Zhiyuan Warship, we must sink these two French battleship! "

Xiang Ying had never been a coward. Why did he choose to retreat before this, because he was afraid that the secret of the Zhiyuan Warship would be leaked? He was extremely clear on the importance of this battleship to the future development of the various countries' navies.

Right now, the better the classified work was, the more advanced the Zhiyuan Warship's technological advantages would be. Furthermore, time was one of the resources that the Ryukyu needed the most.

"Boiler pressurization! Zuo Manduo... Left side against the enemy! "Back and forth main cannons, get ready for battle …" The Zhiyuan Warship drew a white curve on the sea, the three main cannons slowly rotated under the control of the hydraulic gears.

When the Zhiyuan Warship's voice appeared in front of the Frenchman, everyone was stunned. At that moment, it was as if time stopped as Molière had never seen such a strange battleship before.

"What is this?" Please, God, tell me what kind of ship this is. Was it Jules Verne's Nautilus? But isn't that a science fiction novel? And the Nautilus was a submarine … "

Jules Verne was a famous novelist in France, and was later known as the father of science fiction. He was currently living in Paris and was close friends with Dumas Jr. and his science fiction novels were popular in Europe, while Molière was also a fan of his books.

Right now, the Zhiyuan Warship's cutting-edge design made Molière's eyes light up. Other than being able to dream of such a battleship in Verna's science fiction, was there really such an unbelievable ship in the real world?

There was no time to be lost in thought on the battlefield. The distance between Zhiyuan Warship s was less than six kilometers, so now was the time to prepare for battle.

"What the hell are you guys staring at?" The enemy had already prepared the Left side to meet the enemy. Immediately, the right side of the ship was filled with rudders, the right side of the fleet was ready to fire at the same time. "Don't think we're afraid of you just because you have a bigger cannon. We have more cannons than you do …"

Bruce did not know that his roar had produced a trembling sound, and an unprecedented fear surged from the bottom of his heart.

"Come closer, come closer …" We are modified Iron-armored Ship s, our forward and rear cannons have a total of 120 caliber, even the cannons in the side cannons have 76 mm caliber … "Our firepower far surpasses the enemy. I have more cannons, and we have more cannons than the enemy …"

Bruce hissed like a madman, but right at this moment, two balls of fire suddenly lit up at the bow of the Zhiyuan Warship in the distance, followed by a thunderous explosion.

In the Liefa Atlantic War, Zhiyuan Warship fired her first shot!

The violent explosion caused tons of seawater to fly up into the sky, and it was as if a torrential rain was falling all over Molière's and Bruce's military uniforms. Only then did the two of them wake up from their hysteria.

"My God, why is the explosion so close? How could this battleship have such a long range? "Speed up, immediately charge up …" Bruce was about to go crazy. Although the main cannon of the Glory and the Pious Pity could barely hit a distance of six kilometers, and its caliber was relatively small, there was not much kinetic energy left to resist the attraction of Earth. In other words, the parabola at the end of the projectile was extremely difficult to calculate accurately.

Glory's effective range should be within three kilometers, and the closer they were to the cannons, the higher their accuracy. However, the Zhiyuan Warship today had given them a big lesson. Six kilometers was a distance that the sea battles of this era could not even imagine.

"Six kilometers? What the hell, which cannon had more large caliber? Could it be more than 180 mm? "My God, what kind of ship could bear such a great recoil?"

"Is this a Chinese battleship? Since when did pigs with braids have more warships than Europe? This was not scientific! "This is unfair …"

Molière's face was covered with water stains. He didn't know whether it was the waves that had just risen or the horse piss, but his howl did indeed carry a bit of a crying sound.

"Charge forward …" Shooting within three kilometers... "Right now, our only choice is to rely on numbers of cannons to defeat the enemy. There is no other way …"

"Wuwuwu …" My God, is this Xiao Letian a God's Whip that you sent? Are you really punishing us? "
