The Rise of the Empire
Chapter 64: Angry
The Mainz escaped from the attack of the two Japanese cruisers smoothly. Needless to say, the Naniwa ship was built in 1885. It was designed to be 18.5 knots. Now it can run at 15 knots. Although Qiujinzhou's speed is fast, he is in the second position. In order to maintain the formation, his 19-knot high speed can not be played out.
And Ruprecht’s Mainz crossed the opponent at 20 knots. When the cheers of the Japanese had not fallen, the armored cruiser Mainz, which had reached the rear of the Japanese fleet formation, began to rush towards the rear of Akitsu Prefecture! The side-stringed two 11-inch main guns and more than a dozen secondary guns quickly pointed to the target. Although the senior officers suffered heavy casualties, the front-line gunners did not suffer any loss. The German officers and soldiers angrily aimed the cold-lighted muzzle at the Japanese cruiser, waiting for the attack order to be issued!
"Fire!" With the roar of the main gun, the armored cruiser Mainz finally revealed its hideous face on the battlefield! Bullet rain like a volcanic eruption instantly covered the cruiser Akijinshu! In one minute, each 150MM secondary artillery fired at least 7 shells! The theoretical rate of fire of 6 rounds exceeded!
"This is impossible!" Uemura Hikoyuki felt his battleship hit a moving wall of fire, and a storm of flames entrained in fragments swept across the battleship, and successive violent explosions continued to sound, accompanied by a loud noise. The artillery of the cruiser Akitsushu was knocked out one by one! At a distance of 2000 meters to 2500 meters, the powerful projection of the armored cruiser Mainz directly pushed this 3000-ton cruiser to a desperate situation! In the event of just a few minutes, the entire deck seemed to be ripped off by the fierce firepower!
"We can't penetrate it!" When Japanese officers and soldiers on the Naniwa saw that their sparse shells left at most a pit on the opponent, the spirit of the Japanese officers and soldiers on it was on the verge of collapse! The giant on the opposite side cared too much about this old cruiser. He randomly separated the firing cannon and suppressed the Naniwa. The 150MM gun on the Naniwa was not a rapid-fire gun. Two shots per minute went up to the sky. Level opponents, the Germans are simply not interested!
Naniwa also tried to fight back. Uemura Hikoyuki ordered the battleship to lean up and launch torpedoes, but every time it was hit back by dense shells, the battle side of the entire battleship had been damaged by dense high-explosive shells. Kong, half of the ship’s capital was submerged in the water, and a fire dragon rolled and flew on the battleship. The fiery flames and highly toxic gas harvested the lives of the Japanese like death’s sickles. Finally, someone couldn’t help it. They jumped into the sea to try to escape. But such people are often crushed by the water pressure produced by the bomb explosion! Leaving masses of meat and blood on the sea!
"Captain, the Qiujinzhou is no longer saved, let's retreat! While we can go!" An officer pointed to the Qiujinzhou who was beaten in the distance and said with a cry.
"Ba Ga!" Togo Heihachiro slapped the man severely. "I can't even tell the situation! It's going to die now! Can we still run past that armored cruiser?"
As the commander of the Japanese joint fleet and the **** of the Japanese navy, Togo Heihachi can at least distinguish the current situation. Now he can't leave, he can only wait! Waiting for Yoshino to return, cover each other and evacuate from the battlefield! If you don't leave, Yoshino can at least know where he is. If he finds that the situation is not right, he still has a chance to rescue him. If he runs away, where can Yoshino find himself? There is no radio in this era!
For Togo Heihachiro, staying is a life of nine deaths, and fleeing is a life of death! So Togo Heihachiro suppressed his inner fear and waited for Yoshino's arrival! Of course, Togo Heihachiro can also choose to flee offshore, and then take advantage of the shallower draft to get rid of his opponent, but this is also very dangerous! In all likelihood, it will be stranded! Then he was beaten to death by the opponent a little bit!
"Captain, if you don't leave, it's really too late!" When the subordinates wailed and begged Dongxiang to retreat, a gradual clearing of the ship's shadow in the distance caused a slight change in the battle!
"His Royal Highness is a Japanese warship. From the appearance, it should be a second-class cruiser built by Britain!" Hipper picked up the telescope and observed the nearby warship.
"If it dares to come up, we will kill him and kill this dead fish completely!" Prince Ruprecht glanced at the cruiser in the distance and said. Isn't that Yoshino? I carefully calculated the strength of the two sides. If the other side dared to come up, I would not mind to take it away, but if Yoshino wanted to leave, the current cruiser Mainz really couldn't catch up with the other side!
"Get closer to Yoshino!" Togo Heihachiro ordered immediately after seeing Yoshino in the distance. At this time, the Emperor of Japan was not as important as this second-class cruiser! After all, the former is just a portrait, while the latter may become his own savior!
"Osa, what should we do?" On the bridge of the Yoshino, an officer pointed to the wrecked Akitsu Prefecture in the distance.
"Retreat!" Kawara squeezed out a few words!
"Okay, when Qiujin Prefecture comes over, we will withdraw!" The officer on the side said ~www.readwn.com~ They are leaving! "Hippel said while looking at the Naniwa who was about to leave the battlefield.
"Okay, launch a torpedo to sink Qiujin Prefecture, and then we will attack Naniwa!" A sneer appeared at the corner of the prince's mouth. As for the trash fish of Qiujin Prefecture's level, it was already a dead fish after 25 minutes of fighting, with full firepower. Lost, the speed dropped to single digits. In fact, it was just the last torpedo to send it away. The fundamental reason why it survived to this day was that the prince was waiting for Yoshino to come over! If Yoshino does not come, then turn around to clean up Naniwa, if Yoshino comes, then clean up together!
When Naniwa was evacuated, the cruiser Mainz stopped its shelling, and then drove to a distance of only 700 meters from the opponent. With the action of compressed air in the torpedo tube, two torpedoes flew out of the hull and fell into the water. Two white trails were left in the water. Two minutes later, with a loud noise, the cruiser Qiujinzhou was blown into two parts!
"I don't know whether Uemurahiko's inheritance will survive, Essen should thank me!" The prince glanced at the sinking half of the hull, and then ordered Mainz to continue its pursuit!
"It's a hit!" When Mainz's huge figure was filled with Kawara Kazuichi's binoculars, and his gun barrel was pointed at this historically magnificent Japanese cruiser, Kawara Kazuichi finally realized that he had committed a crime. Fatal mistake, I shouldn't have come! No, two dead. Come, maybe three! The other party is like a cunning hunter using the fluke of the Japanese!
"Send us to the shallow sea area, and you go!" Soon, Togo Heihachiro realized his mistake, but at this moment, he immediately came up with a remedy.
