Ten Dragons Take the Inheritance

Chapter 458 The Heart of a Warrior!
The shock tactics of the frontline fleet of the Qing Dynasty is the first move in today's naval battles. By surprise, the English fleet fell into chaos. The long snake formation was divided into two by the frontline fleet of the Qing Dynasty. After all, the English Fleet is the strongest naval fleet today, and its rich combat experience far exceeds that of the fledgling Qing Fleet. However, after a while, Admiral Nadal judged the combat intention of the Qing Fleet, although he was a little startled. The Qing army's tactics were bold, but there was no trace of panic.

Admiral Nadal thought for a while, and immediately answered a series of combat orders: "Order: 'Saber' raised the commander's flag to replace this ship as the flagship of the fleet, and the rear fleet is under the unified command of Rear Admiral Kassel Flynn. , it is necessary to hold back the fleet of the Qing Dynasty and not allow it to rush into the central battlefield; the ships on the front line are under the unified command of Rear Admiral Sean Connery, the captain of the 'Celtic', to defeat the enemy's interception fleet as soon as possible, and to attack our ship. Get closer; the 'Mayflower' is entangled with the enemy's No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-] ships, and must persist until our front-line fleet returns to help; all officers and soldiers of this ship are immediately ready for boarding battle!"

Boarding battle, the oldest naval warfare method, and of course the cruelest naval warfare method, refers to the naval warfare method in which one's own ship's side is close to the enemy's ship's side, and soldiers jump gangs to fight. Gradually eliminated, it is no longer the main mode of naval warfare, but such tactics are often staged in large-scale naval battles. The boarding battle is the most courageous moment for naval officers and soldiers. The winner lives and the loser dies.

At this moment, the sea battle in the Black Island waters has been fought for nearly an hour. The two sides are biting tightly, and each has casualties, but neither retreats. After receiving the order from Admiral Nadal, the England rear fleet immediately Gathering together, they met the rear fleet of the Qing Dynasty, which was speeding up towards the central battlefield. The two sides no longer set up any battle lines. During the tug-of-war, the English front-line fleet continued to attack the Qing front-line fleet that formed the blocking line, trying to break through the blocking of the Qing front-line fleet and rendezvous with the flagship. Constantly repelling the crazy impact of the British army with fierce artillery fire. At this time, the frontline fleet of the British army was unable to fire back due to the problem of course. Several charges were defeated by the Qing fleet. Not only failed to cross the blocking line, but lost Two second-tier battleships and one third-tier battleship were dispatched, but the English frontline fleet never gave up its efforts to attack.

On the central battlefield, the "Dancing Girl" of the English fleet has been sent into the depths of the ocean by the fierce artillery fire from the three ships "Weining", "Weiyi", and "Mighty". The warship was bombarded on both sides, and it would be a matter of time before the battle sank. It just depends on whether it can persist until the arrival of the England front-line fleet. After a confrontation between the "Great Britain" and the "Veyron", the distance between the two sides has been shortened to less than 30 meters. At this moment, neither side fired anymore. Instead, most of the officers and soldiers of the ship gathered together on the deck, silently Watching the opponent's ship that is constantly approaching.

Admiral Nadal stood on a small platform under the main mast with a stern face. He took off his military cap, revealing his white hair. He pointed to the "Great Dragon" that was approaching rapidly, and said loudly: "Warriors of Great England, the sea belongs to England. As long as there is sea, it is the paradise of my Great England Fleet. For the sake of Her Majesty, for the pride of my England Navy, show your courage and let the yellow-skinned monkeys know What is the real navy!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The officers and soldiers of the English navy lined up neatly on the deck suddenly yelled wildly, all of them looked ferocious and murderous, wishing to jump over the distance of more than 20 meters and rush to the ship of the "Veyron" in one breath. On the deck, the officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were hacked to death.

On the "Great Dragon", Qiao Hailong stood at the forefront of the deck, calmly looked at the "Great Britain" not far away, and said without looking back: "Brothers, don't forget the oath you made, This is our moment, for the emperor, for the Qing Dynasty, we will fight to the death without retreating!"

"Never retreat in a deadly battle! Never retreat in a deadly battle!" The officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty on the deck of the "Vielong" roared angrily, and the rumbling guns around them could not suppress the roar of the officers and soldiers of the Qing Navy from the bottom of their hearts.

It's getting closer, it's getting closer, it's getting closer, 20 meters, 15 meters, ten meters, the distance between the "Great Dragon" and the "Great Britain" sailing in the same direction is gradually shrinking, and the officers and soldiers on both sides are holding machetes , The rifles stared at each other, but there was no sound, and no one even fired first. They just stared at each other, and the eyes collided with intense sparks. The moment to finally reveal who lives and who dies has arrived.

"Raise the gun and shoot!" Qiao Hailong, who was standing on the deck, unceremoniously gave the order to fire first, and more than two hundred naval officers and soldiers equipped with breech-loading needle guns immediately raised their bayonet-loaded guns. The rifle didn't need to be aimed at all, and it fired randomly, and immediately swept away a large number of English soldiers on the "Great Britain". At the same time, Admiral Nadal on the "Great Britain" gave a loud order: : "Throw the rope hook and build the springboard!" A dozen brave English sailors braved the fierce bullets from the Qing army and threw the rope hook and the barbed springboard in their hands, and hung them on the side of the "Dragon" ship. , the two huge warships collided quickly, and soldiers from both sides immediately swarmed across the ship's side and rushed towards each other. However, the English soldiers are generally a head taller than the Qing officers and soldiers. Although they were attacked from below, they did not suffer a big loss. The two sides launched a desperate fight near the side of the ship, and there were constantly The soldiers who were killed screamed and fell into the gap between the two ships. There is only one word to describe this bloody fight, and that is tragic!
Rear Admiral Sean Connery, England's front-line fleet commander, is an old man in his 50s. He has experienced countless naval battles. He is the only major admiral in the English Navy who was born as a civilian. He started as a sailor and rose to captain. Since joining the English Navy, he has served for nearly 16 years, and his rich combat experience can be regarded as one of the top figures in the English Navy. If it weren't for his bad background, he would have been an admiral long ago.At this moment, Rear Admiral Connery stood grimly on the front deck of the first-class battleship "Celtic", and checked the situation in the central battlefield with a binoculars.

Not good, very bad!Once the "Mayflower" sinks, the "Great Britain" will not be able to stop the siege of the four giant Qing ships. Once the central battle subsides, the first thing the Qing fleet will attack must be England, which has already been severely damaged. The frontline fleet, Rear Admiral Connery, couldn't believe that his battered and demoralized frontline fleet could stop the sweep of the five giant ships of the Qing Dynasty, and once the frontline fleet was destroyed, it would be entangled with the rearline fleet of the Qing Dynasty The possibility of the British rear-line fleet escaping from birth is very small.

No, never!The pride of the Great England Navy must not bow to this!Rear Admiral Connery clenched his fists angrily, and loudly issued a combat order: "Order: All third-tier battleships and cruisers will continue to attack, and the rest of the battleships will follow the ship from the upper wind and prepare for boarding. How to break through the interception of yellow-skinned monkeys, rushing over is victory!" Following Major General Connery's order, the English frontline fleet in chaos immediately stabilized, and the troops were divided into two groups: one was based on the remaining four third-class ships. The squadron composed of battleships and four cruisers lined up in a line formation and rushed towards the interception line of the Qing front fleet at a ninety-degree angle. They ignored the fierce artillery fire of the Qing fleet and did not open fire. Forward, forward, and forward again, the vanguard "Quinine" was blasted into a big torch before it rushed to 80 meters from the Qing fleet, and wobbled a few times on the sea. It sank to the bottom of the sea, but the "Liege" that followed it took the opportunity to kill it and continued to rush towards the Qing fleet. Of course, the "Liege" didn't go very far. Under the bombardment, they became ghosts on the bottom of the sea, but the remaining English warships were not frightened by the artillery fire of the Qing army like the previous few times, and they continued to rush forward one after another.

At the same time when the attention of the frontline fleet of the Qing Dynasty was attracted by the Death Squadron fleet in England, it had rushed to the windward position, and the main force of the frontline fleet in England, which was lined up, followed the wind and formed an angle of [-] degrees like a runaway wild horse. He rushed towards the Qing army array.

"Haha, good fight! Cool! Really fucking cool!" Rear Admiral Liu Ninghai, the commander of the frontline fleet of the Qing Dynasty, stood on the bow of the "Majestic" ship, watching the small boats in England who were desperately charging were crushed by the artillery of the Qing Dynasty. After burning into torches, he burst out laughing with joy, but unfortunately, his complacency didn't last long, and he was interrupted by the exclamation of the lookout post: "Master Liu, look, the fleet of red-haired ghosts Coming from the upwind."

"Oh, damn it, damn it!" Only then did Liu Ninghai understand the true meaning of England's death-death fleet. At this moment, the main force of England's front-line fleet had rushed to a distance of less than 300 meters from the Qing Dynasty's front-line fleet. At that time, they were still busy destroying the remnants of the remaining England death fleet, and there was no time to adjust the formation, and even the time to adjust the angle of the artillery was not much.

"Order: All ships don't have to worry about those English boats rushing in a straight line, pay attention to the upwind, and prepare to fight!" Seeing that the situation was not right, Liu Ninghai hurriedly issued a combat order. Although this order was issued in time, it can only be said It was a wrong order—although most of the English fleet that was attacking in a straight line was sunk, the rest were all high-speed cruisers. Although the firepower of these four cruisers was not strong, they were very fast. The three third-tier battleships were much faster. While the Qing frontline fleet was busy preparing to meet the main force of the England frontline fleet, the four English cruisers took the opportunity to rush past the interception line of the Qing frontline fleet and entered the central battlefield. Merged with the "Mayflower", although the English fleet was still at a disadvantage in the central battlefield in the face of the violent attack of the three prestige ships of the Qing Dynasty, at least it stabilized the situation that was about to collapse, and prepared for this great war. Large-scale naval battles add infinite variables.

The main force of the English frontline fleet charged extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, it followed the wind and reached the upper wind less than 200 meters away from the Qing fleet. The English fleet, which had been prepared for a long time, bombarded violently, not to mention heavy casualties, and many warships caught fire. Before the Qing army could react, the main force of the English frontline fleet, which was driving at high speed, suddenly divided into two columns. An English column headed by a first-class battleship continued to move forward, continuously bombarding the Qing fleet along the way, while another English column composed entirely of second-class battleships braved the counterattack of the Qing army and headed towards the Qing fleet. Leaning over, the deck of the ship was full of English naval officers and soldiers preparing for a boarding battle.

"Fuck it, hurry up, change the bombs! Give me a damn!" Liu Ninghai was not stupid, he saw through the English fleet's plan at a glance, and the English column that was fighting against the Qing fleet was just a cover. Forget it, the seven or eight warships that are approaching at high speed are the real killers. Once the boarding battle starts, they can't take into account the rest of the Qing frontline fleet. They can only watch the English cover fleet swaggering into the central battlefield. In this way, the situation that was originally beneficial to the Qing Fleet will be irresistibly reversed. If so, even if the Qing Fleet is not completely defeated, it is inevitable that the Qing Fleet will suffer heavy losses.

chaos!What a mess, the frontline fleet of the Qing Dynasty, which had just been thrown into disarray by the main force of the frontline fleet in England, was busy preparing to fire back, but suddenly received an order to change the ammunition and attack the approaching English melee. Fleet, it is inevitable to make mistakes in the middle of a busy schedule. Some tried to replace the explosive ammunition immediately, while others planned to fire the solid ammunition in the gun chamber first and then load the explosive ammunition. Line, not only failed to threaten the England cover fleet, even the threat to the England hand-to-hand fleet was not great, the situation suddenly became serious...
