The caliber of naval warships in this period, regardless of the caliber of naval guns, is not small, but because of gunpowder, artillery and other technologies, the power is actually not very great, at least compared with the twin naval guns and shells of the World War II period equipped on the Yanhuang, which is far from the difference.

It's just that most of the naval warships of this period were wooden-hulled warships, with little armor protection, and the defense capability of the hull was quite weak, even if it was hit by these backward guns, there would be serious damage.

The French expeditionary fleet's move, just like the progress of history, was not prepared at all, and all the Fujian sailors docked at the port wharf were immediately stunned, and many warships were hit by the shells of the French warships, and some even caught fire.

In the face of the sudden attack of the French expeditionary fleet, the Fujian sailors quickly returned to their respective posts after the initial panic, and wanted to launch a counterattack.

Taking advantage of the favorable opportunity of the low tide to launch an attack, taking advantage of the opportunity of the low tide to transfer the hull of the ship, to launch an attack on the Fujian naval division, at this time the French warships can use the bow to attack the stern of the Fujian naval division, the stern is the weakest point of the warship, which is very easy to be damaged, and the Fujian naval division that is ordered to moored even if it reacts, it must do the entire semi-circular rotation in order to turn the bow of the ship, so that the French fleet has a "decisive strategic advantage".

In the first round of salvo fire alone, two battleships of the Fujian Navy Division were sunk, many battleships suffered heavy losses, and the fire on the battleship could be clearly seen even if the Yanhuang was far away, which could be described as a heavy loss.

And at this moment, Ye Bai is looking at the quest this time:

[The player chooses the camp of the Fujian Sailors, and the quest has been generated: 1. Repel the French Expeditionary Fleet, 2. Protect the Fujian Navy, during the player's mission, the more French warships are sunk, the more battleships survived by the Fujian Navy, and the better the rewards the player will get]

[System Friendly Reminder: If the Fujian Navy Division is completely wiped out, it will be regarded as a failure of the player's mission, and the failure will be wiped out]

It's nice to say, it's a friendly reminder, but the prompt information specially marked with bloody red has fully explained the danger of the task, and the quest is to force the player to work hard, and the idea of hiding and not participating in the war is impossible to achieve.

Closing the system panel, Ye Bai looked up and saw the fire in Mawei Harbor, and quickly grabbed the telescope to observe, only to find that the inside had been completely opened, and many warships of the Fujian Navy Division were ignited with fire and smoke, obviously hit by the shells fired by the French warships.

The Fujian Sailor's such a fragile defense made Ye Bai look at it with tears in his eyes, he didn't feel sorry for the battle damage of the Fujian Sailor, it was really related to his own life, if the performance of the Fujian Sailor was too stretched, and the whole army was annihilated, Ye Bai would be wiped out by the system even if he behaved well.

At this time, the Yanhuang was only about 7 or 8 kilometers away from Mawei Port, and the gunners of the Yanhuang had been able to play a very high hit rate, but there was a lack of unified command before, and the three main guns on the Yanhuang turned out to be fighting separately, without a unified goal.

Although in the process of advancing, the Yanhuang did not sail in a straight line under the command of Qi Sicheng, but drew an arc to advance, ensuring that the three naval guns could launch an attack, and fired several rounds of salvos, but did not achieve any results.

This was Ye Bai's mistake as a layman, but fortunately, Ye Bai also found that the firepower on the Yanhuang was quite scattered and did not pose a threat to the French warship, so he hurriedly ordered: "Pass my order, attack the enemy's largest battleship, concentrate the firepower of the whole ship, and hit me hard." "

Among the French expeditionary fleet, the most powerful warship is actually the armored cruiser Triumph with a displacement of more than 4,000 tons, and the most strange thing is that the lone flagship is not the Triumph, but the wooden-hulled cruiser Volda, with a displacement of only more than 1,300 tons.

In Ye Bai's limited knowledge of naval warfare, in naval warfare, there is also a saying that the thief captures the king first, and the primary target of attack is often the flagship of the opposing fleet, after all, without the command of the flagship, the warships of the entire fleet will often fight separately.

Ye Bai didn't know which Guba's flagship was, but there was also Qi Sicheng by his side, although this guy was just a captain and a sailing staff officer, commanding naval battles was not his forte, but some basic common sense still knew, and he could still distinguish the fleet commander's flag hanging on the Volda.

According to Qi Sicheng's suggestion, it must be a priority to concentrate fire on the flagship of the French expeditionary fleet, so that the entire French fleet will lose its command, so that the Yanhuang can be broken one by one.

However, Qi Sicheng's suggestion was still rejected by Ye Bai, because the copy task given by the system is quite clear, although the goal of the mission is to defeat the French expeditionary fleet, but don't forget, at the same time, it is necessary to protect the Fujian Navy, once the Fujian Navy's army is destroyed, the quest will still fail.

After all, in the entire fleet, there are only 4 with a displacement of more than 2,000 tons, as long as these 4 warships are sunk, the other small warships are not a big threat to the Fujian Navy.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

Under the command of Qi Sicheng, the Yanhuang in the waters outside Mawei Harbor was able to reduce its speed, turn the ship horizontally, and the three twin-mounted main guns were all aimed at the largest Triumph stern.

A cannonball streaked through the sky and landed around the Triumph, blasting out countless seawaters, covering the entire Triumph, and even one cannonball and its lucky landing on the deck of the Triumph, after the violent explosion, the wooden deck of the Triumph actually ignited a fire.

Thick smoke rose from the Triumph, and the power was so great that the commander not far away was taken aback, and he quickly ordered the bombardment of the fleet of the Fujian Navy Division to draw three warships out and sink the Yanhuang that suddenly appeared.

"Report to the captain that 3 warships of the enemy fleet are leaving the military port and are moving quickly towards our ship. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The radar soldiers, who always paid attention to the radar detection results, discovered the movements of the French expeditionary fleet as soon as possible and reported the situation to Ye Bai.

Even if there was no report from the radar soldiers, Ye Bai saw through the telescope the three French battleships rushing towards the Yanhuang, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and a sneer appeared on his face.

It seems that the act of gathering fire to attack the Triumph has worked, and the other party has actually drawn 3 battleships out of the already small number of warships, so that the pressure on the Fujian Navy Division has been greatly reduced, and it must be able to hold on for a while longer.
