I have to admire the officers and soldiers of these Beiyang Naval Divisions, like the Fujian Naval Divisions that were originally wiped out in the previous [Mawei Naval Battle], they all have the bloody nature of soldiers, and on the battlefield, they never skimp on their lives and dare to fight hard.

It is true that the Guangyi is equipped with 4600mm mine launch tubes, but the torpedoes of this era have only just been applied to naval warfare, and the speed of the early torpedoes in the water is very slow, about 20 knots, and the most pittable is that the range is very short, only a few hundred meters.

Even if torpedoes have been widely equipped in the naval warships of various countries, their application in actual combat is quite inconvenient, and they must withstand the guns of enemy warships and get within a few hundred meters before they can launch torpedo attacks, which is quite a dangerous behavior.

At this moment, although the Yoshino put almost all of its firepower into the counterattack against the Yanhuang and Pengze, and had no time to take care of the Guangyi that was secretly approaching, don't forget, a large number of shells fired by the Yanhuang and Pengze were constantly flying and falling on the perimeter of the Yoshino, and the Guangyi was so close to the Yoshino that it was easy to be injured by mistake.

However, despite the danger, the officers and men of Guangyi did not have the slightest intention of flinching, and resolutely drove the battleship closer, and in order to find the best attack distance, they even approached about 400 meters to the side of the Yoshino despite the shells falling from the sky.

Perhaps it was the heroic souls of the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Naval Division who were blessed, Guangyi was not hit by a single shell on this journey, otherwise, the sound of the shell explosion and the fire of the explosion would completely expose the Guangyi, and at that time, unless all the Japanese Ben people on the Yoshino were blind, they would inevitably find the Guangyi that was close at hand.

If this is exposed, let alone taking the opportunity to sneak attack the Yoshino, the Guang 110 B itself will also be hit by the Yoshino, and the small body of about 1,000 tons of the Guang B will soon be completely sunk by the heavy artillery fire of the Yoshino.

But on the battlefield, luck is also part of strength, and in short, the actions of the Guangyi were thrilling and the Yoshino was smoothly approached.

In order to be safe, the Hiroshi fired 4 torpedoes at the Yoshino in one go, and hit the side of Yoshino in a fan shape with a white waterline.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

None of the 4 torpedoes fired by Guangyi missed, and all of them hit the hull of the Yoshino, causing a violent explosion.

Clusters of fireballs rose into the air, a large amount of gunpowder smoke filled the air, and a thick black fog shrouded in thick black fog, no one could see the damage of the Yoshino clearly, if it weren't for the fact that there were still red points of light representing the Yoshino on the radar screen of the Yanhuang, I am afraid that many people would have thought that the Yoshino had been sunk in the attack just now.

"Close the distance, concentrate your fire, keep shooting, and give me a beating of the reservoir dogs. "

The Guangyi succeeded in one blow and directly hit the Yoshino, although it was not sunk, but the damage was not small, at least the Yoshino's counterattack artillery fire had temporarily stopped.

As the commander in command of the battle, Lütjans naturally gave the latest order as soon as possible, taking advantage of the Yoshino's inability to counterattack, quickly approaching the past, further improving the hit rate of the ship's guns, and if necessary, using torpedoes to attack.

I don't know if it's the reason of the system, or the problem of translation, in short, Lütjans, a German from the original world, can still say something like "beating the water dogs", if he just listens to the voice, Ye Bai almost thinks that this is a compatriot of the rabbit family.

After firing 4 torpedoes at close range, the Guangyi immediately turned around and evacuated at high speed, and if it didn't leave, it would usher in the retaliatory shelling of the Yoshino, and although the officers and men on the Guangyi dared to fight to the death, they would not choose to die in vain, and they would try to live as much as possible if they didn't die.

The Yanhuang and Pengze, which were full of horsepower, crossed an arc on the sea surface at a very fast speed, and quickly narrowed the encirclement to a range of only about 5 kilometers, although this distance could allow the main guns on the Yoshino to give full play to their power, but by 4 torpedoes in a row, the Yoshino had been greatly damaged, and the thick black smoke and raging fire on the hull showed that they had temporarily lost the ability to counterattack.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

At a distance of 5 kilometers, the hit rate was quite high for the crew members on the Yanhuang and Pengze, and at least nearly half of the shells fell on the Yoshino in a salvo.

With a new round of shell explosions, the fire that had not been extinguished burned even more brilliantly, and many Japanese sailors were blown out and fell into the sea.

You can even see a heavy cannon being blown up by the terrifying shock wave after the cannonball explodes, falling heavily into the sea, stirring up countless seawaters.

"On my order, the Yanhuang and Peng Ze each fired two torpedoes and completely sank the enemy ship for me. "

Hearing Lu Teyans's order, Ye Bai pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything, he knew that Lu Teyans, who was born in the torpedo boat unit, was fond of torpedo attacks, although he added a large number of torpedoes to the two battleships last time, but he couldn't use it like this.

Fortunately, there are only two destroyers in the fleet now, and if there are more warships under the fleet in the future, the consumption of this torpedo is quite terrifying.

What's more, in Ye Bai's opinion, the Yoshino has suffered a series of blows, in addition to being concentrated by 4 torpedoes, there are more shells exploding on the hull, and the armor value of the battleship has been greatly depleted, and the remaining bit of armor value may not need 4 torpedoes at all, only 2 are enough.

But Ye Bai didn't say this, after all, these are just his own guesses, he really has a pity now, although this big sea of navigation is very much like a game, but in the end it is not a game (cabe), and the lack of a blood bar is the biggest failure.

But if you can see the health bar or armor value of the opponent's battleship, with the ability of Lu Teyans, you can make the most accurate judgment, use the most accurate attack method, and save ammunition.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

The torpedoes equipped with the Yanhuang and Peng Ze are not comparable to the original white-headed torpedoes on the Guangyi, not only have a longer range, but also have a super fast speed in the water, and the ultra-high speed of more than 40 knots is even more terrifying.

The 4 torpedoes, which were sailing below the surface of the sea at an ultra-high speed of more than 40 knots, were on fire, and none of the crew members of the Yoshino, shrouded in a large amount of smoke, would be able to detect these large killers under the water, let alone make an emergency evasion.

Therefore, there was no mistake, and the 4533mm diameter torpedo directly hit the Yoshino, and in a violent explosion, the heavy hull of the Yoshino, which was more than 4,000 tons, was blown up and broke away from the sea.

Then under the action of gravity (Ye Bai, who saw this scene, had a strange thought in his heart, that is, he didn't know if there was gravity in this great navigation world), and fell heavily on the sea, because of the heaviness of the hull, and even the entire sea surface was concave.

The Yoshino sank below the surface of the sea and was never able to resurface, and the flagship of the 1st Guerrilla Force of the Japan-Benzene Combined Fleet sank to the bottom of the sea with its first captain, Genji Kawato, and more than 300 Japanese and Benzene naval soldiers on board.

"Dry drifting. "

The Yoshino sank, Ye Bai suddenly couldn't help but cheer loudly, for this famous ship in the Japanese-benzene combined fleet, Ye Bai had a deep impression, almost participated in all the naval battles in the First Sino-Japanese Period, and later participated in the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance.

However, perhaps because he did too much evil and suffered retribution, the fate of the Yoshino can be described as very dramatic, and in 1904, during the Russo-Japanese War, when she was hiding from a minefield, she was hit and sunk by the friendly ship Kasuga armored cruiser, which can be regarded as making up for the regret in his heart for Deng Shichang at the beginning.

But this time is different, the Yoshino was sunk by the Yanhuang and Pengze in the Battle of Toshima, commissioned in 1893 and sunk in 1894, which can be regarded as quite short-lived.

"Order the Peng Ze to outflank from the flank, and the Yan Huang to assault from the front, support the friendly warships, and sink the enemy warships. "

Although the successful sinking of the Yoshino was a matter of joy, Lu Teyans was not carried away by this result, after all, before the start of the war, Ye Bai's mission was quite clear, covering the evacuation of friendly warships, and repelling or defeating enemy warships, which he did not forget.

Now that only one of the three enemy ships has been sunk, and the final victory is still far away, the cautious Lütjans will not be confused at this time, and the top priority now is to take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat the remaining two warships of the enemy fleet in one fell swoop. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Still maintaining an ultra-high speed of 28 knots, the Yanhuang plunged headlong into the battlefield of the Jiyuan and the Qiujinzhou and Naniwa.

When the Yanhuang entered the battlefield, the Jiyuan had been hit by multiple shells, and the superstructure of the entire hull had been ignited.

And the Yanhuang came at the right time, and the three main guns fired a salvo, which attracted the attention of the Akitsuzu and Naniwa, and the two captains of Uemura Hikonojo and Togo Heihachiro realized that the Yoshino had disappeared without knowing when.

It's no wonder that the two of them are blind, after all, the battle with the Jiyuan just now was too fierce, so they didn't have time to pay attention to the situation of the Yoshino, not to mention that the battlefield was filled with thick gunsmoke, even if they had the heart to pay attention, they couldn't see the specific situation.
