() "As expected, he is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. He never misses an opportunity." Looking at the Russian ship that was bitten in the distance, Essen said with a bitter smile. At this time, because the Russian ship was blocking it, most of the Prince's firepower was blocked.

There is no way to threaten the Taipei, unless the Russia turns around and gives up escaping and rushes directly towards the Taipei. Otherwise, the Taipei, which has the advantage in speed and maneuverability, can always use the Russia to avoid the Prince's artillery fire, and then get close and slam the Russia

!

But Essen really didn't dare to look back at this time, because they had been delayed in this sea area for too long. Beiyang's commanders are not fools. They have probably discovered the Russian plan. I am afraid that Beiyang will get the news.

Are other warships coming here? Once the Beiyang Fleet arrives, there is still a certain distance from Muroran Port, so I am afraid that the entire fleet will eventually be wiped out?

Just when Essen was thinking wildly, the sudden explosion from behind made Essen feel nervous. At this time, the distance between the Taipei and the Russia was only 2,000 meters at most. In order to keep the most elite Russian navy,

Cruiser, Lin Tai once gave up on himself

Instead of having the precision advantage of long-range fire, they chose the bloodiest and most direct way to fight their opponents at close range! At a distance of about 2,000 meters, the Taipei had four 11-inch guns and five 6-inch guns on its side.

There are also 3 105mm artillery pieces

"" Attacking at the highest speed, there is no need to measure the distance at this distance, the artillery can be aimed directly! A series of explosions sounded on the side and deck of the Russia, and clouds of fire and smoke instantly filled the entire battleship.

At this time, although the condition of the Russian ship was very poor after successive battles, facing the attack of the Taipei, the entire Russian officers and soldiers on the Russian ship were also resisting desperately! It was about time to go home. Under the temptation of going home,

.The Russians broke out with 120% combat effectiveness, all

All the personnel were mobilized, and all available artillery was spitting deadly tongues of fire at the Beiyang warship not far away. The two warships were like two steel behemoths, using the simplest, most direct and most powerful way.

In the battle, the two sides left no way out from the moment they fought!

Beiyang will never allow the Russian Navy to attack again and affect its overall strategy. As a senior executive, Lin Taizeng understands very well that Beiyang cannot support the consumption on the battlefield for a long time and must prepare for the end. And more importantly, Beiyang wants to end the war.

Recapture Vladivostok before the official,

Because of road and transportation capacity problems, the Beiyang Army's artillery is of little use. The only way to crack the iron box of Vladivostok is to rely on the Navy's naval guns! Therefore, Beiyang must completely cripple the Russian Far East Fleet in this war. Let Makanov

No longer able to enter the East China Sea and Yellow Sea!

. . "" As for the Russians. Escape is one thing, but more importantly, this battleship has placed too many hopes on the Russian Navy. Russia! The only armored cruiser in the Russian Navy named after its own country! Russian Navy

If the most elite and brand-new cruiser in the world cannot survive a complete war, this will be too cruel for the Russian and Russian-Kazakhstan forces!

Both sides are constantly throwing tons of ammunition at each other. The close combat is a competition of firepower and protection to see who can overwhelm the other side first! There is nothing fancy about this kind of collision, everything depends on strength! And in this kind of confrontation

In the high-intensity confrontation, Russia failed first! It was not because of water intrusion or damage. During the construction process of Russia, protection was specially emphasized, especially the protection against high-explosive bombs. The real reason why Russia failed first

It's the Russkoye that doesn't have enough shells!

This is really not to blame for the low ammunition reserves of the Russia. The key is that after having experienced two wars, no amount of ammunition reserves can be used in the third fierce battle. What quickly ran out was the rapid-fire artillery shells. After all, the rapid-fire artillery shells were exhausted.

Too fast. Some of the rapid fire cannons on the Russia were exhausted within 30 minutes of the exchange of fire. Only a small number of 6-inch guns and the 11-inch main gun on the bow were still in use.

Boom, boom! Two loud bangs sounded from the rear of the hull of the Russia! "A New History of China in Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War"

Chapter 473: "The End of the Behemoth" At a distance of 2,500 meters, the rear main gun of the Taipei fired two 11-inch armor-piercing shells into the stern of the Russia at a nearly vertical angle, and the first shell hit the

The main armor belt had a huge impact on the main armor belt of Russia. Although it did not penetrate, a whole piece of main armor belt was destroyed.

The deck was torn from the hull, directly causing a large hole of more than ten square meters near the stern wheelhouse of the Russia! Another shell directly penetrated the upper armor belt of the Russia, and then passed through several cabins.

, exploded above the wheelhouse, the huge one directly destroyed the wheelhouse, and the entire battleship was suddenly in a semi-out of control state!

"Tell General Essen that our ship can no longer operate independently." The captain of the Russia looked at the rear of the battleship wrapped in thick smoke and flames and ordered. A few minutes later, Essen received the last telegram from the Russia

Finally, he decisively ordered the Prince to abandon the seriously injured Russia and evacuate at high speed, not only because the Russia had been severely damaged and it was difficult to return, but also because he saw two columns of smoke appearing from the side and rear! The new fleet was coming again

It's coming, but it's definitely not the Russian fleet!

"Sir Cheng Biguang's fleet has arrived." An officer said, pointing to the two cruisers in the distance and the torpedo boats gathered around.

"The Russia is doomed, but the Prince probably ran away, but it's okay to stay and cause trouble for the Japanese." Lin Tai once said with a wry smile. "Keep the distance, and the torpedo boats will be lost in a while."

Just deal with it." The Taipei was also seriously damaged. After a large number of rapid fire cannons washed the deck of the Taipei at close range, the superstructure of the Taipei was also in a mess. Now that the outcome has been decided, there is no need to continue to fight.

An hour later, Cheng Biguang's fleet finally felt it. Surprisingly, under this absolute disadvantage, the Russia did not give up resistance and still used its few remaining rapid-fire cannons to resist the torpedo boat attack.

The so-called trapped beast is still fighting, is it describing the Russian cruiser at this time? Lin Tai once thought.

The Russians' unyielding will to die is indeed admirable, but it has no impact on the outcome. Under the combined efforts of 8 torpedo boats, the pride of the Russian Navy and Andrei's most powerful armored cruiser finally sank to the bottom of the sea, and this also

The curtain marking the Shanghai War in the Far East is slowly falling. Russia has only three battleships left.

The Far East Fleet no longer has the ability to pose the slightest threat to the Beiyang Fleet and the Beiyang sea transportation lines. It can only stay in the military port as if it is dying, and be wary of the Japanese fleet's possible sneak attack and harassment of Hokkaido. At this time, the Russian fleet even

Even the Japanese Sea did not dare to enter easily, and it completely degenerated into an existence fleet.

After receiving a telegram from Essen about the battle situation, the Russian fleet directly led the fleet back in an "entertainment show" without contacting Deng Shichang's two Pisa-type armored cruisers. At this point, the Russian fleet never took any military action against the Beiyang Fleet until the war was resolved.

The battle between the Beiyang Fleet and the Russian Far East Fleet is actually over!

The sea became calm again. The naval battle that lasted for several months finally ended. After this battle, there was only one fleet that could claim dominance in the Far East and even the entire East and Southeast Asia, and that was the Beiyang and Overseas Fleet under Xu Jie. From then on,

The Beiyang Fleet can gallop across the vast waters from Sakhalin in the north to Dutch Indonesia in the south!
Chapter completed!
