Chapter 964: Triumph

"What the is that?"
Wilson was soaked in cold sweat.
When the firepower of the steam battleship of the Great Yu Kingdom was weak, he realized that the shells of the battleship of the Great Yu Kingdom might be used up. After all, the battleship of the Great Yu Kingdom was defeated by less in the fierce naval battle just now, and this also meant that the artillery shells they fired were more many.
After seeing this trend, there was a glimmer of hope of victory in his heart, but now this hope was crushed by this sudden battleship.
He could see that the battleship seemed to have just been launched from the shipyard, because the armor on the battleship still had a thick layer of rust, but even so, it was enough to scare them.
A warship covered in iron armor is sailing at sea. What the is this?
Just as Wilson guessed, this battleship has indeed just been launched and has not been officially delivered to the navy because the painting of the battleship has not been completed yet, but this battleship Wan is fully combat effective because the artillery has been installed and the artillery shells are temporarily supplied at the military port. That's it.
They only appeared now because they were replenishing ammunition.
The people who controlled the battleship were Xie Yuan and Ding Chang. Zhang Liang found them when Li Wei was fighting at sea and asked them to control the steel battleship.
Facing the emergency situation, they boarded this battleship without any hesitation, because they knew the ammunition reserves of the battleship very well, it was impossible for these twelve battleships to defeat such a huge number of battleships.
Therefore, in order to prevent Li Wei from being overwhelmed by lack of ammunition, he first sent a sailing warship, and then personally piloted the first iron-clad ship of the country.
Because once the naval battle is lost, the shipyard in the military port will definitely be shelled by these invaders, and the losses at that time will be heavier than ever.
"Don't be afraid, hit directly into their battleship group. The iron armor of our battleship is enough to withstand the explosion of this kind of bombardment." Xie Yuan was excited.
In Da Yu’s shipbuilding plan, the iron-clad ship appeared in response to this kind of bomb. The wooden structure of the hull could no longer withstand the impact of the bomb explosion.
And they know very well that these Westerners will soon be equipped with shells similar to them. After all, the Da Yu country defected incident was scolded by the court as a negative example in the newspapers for several months, and everyone knew it.
For this reason, Da Yu Country now has more careful supervision of talents.
Under Xie Yuan's order, the ironclad warship was fully equipped. Unlike hybrid warships, the ironclad warship was completely powered by steam engines, and the masts on the warship were eliminated.
In terms of shape, the iron armored ship is no longer the shape of the Da Yu Guo sailing warship, but has become a long hull. After all, this hull is more suitable for iron armor installation.
The only thing in common is the muzzle on both sides, because they are the first generation of armored ships, they still use dense artillery.
"Boom boom boom..."
The arrival of the armored ship immediately attracted the attention of the British warships. Many warships turned their heads and aimed their fire at the steel monster, and the next scene shocked them.
In the explosion of their bombardment, the battleship was still intact. Breaking through the flames and smoke, the armored ship rammed into a British battleship that was shooting at him.
"Boom!"
Under the huge inertia of the iron armored ship, the British wooden warship was directly knocked out of a huge hole, while the iron armored ship continued to move forward without reducing its speed, pushing the battleship away like garbage.
At the same time, the artillery on both sides of the armored ship began to fire frantically, because it plunged into the chaotic British warships. A dozen British warships were in his attack range. With the shelling of the armored ships, these warships were very passive and some of the warships were hit. He quickly lost combat effectiveness.
The armored ships were so ferocious that Xie Yuan and Ding Chang were encouraged. They became bolder and completely ignored the enemy's shelling, chasing the British warships.
Li Wei was deeply shocked, and there was a trace of enthusiasm in his eyes. He really wanted to pilot this warship himself, but this wish could only wait until the battle was over.
At this time he said to the first officer: "Did you see it? Let the soldiers concentrate the shells and hand them over to the gunner who shoots more accurately. Come on!"
"Yes." The chief officer was shocked, and they couldn't lose in this way.
"Boom boom boom..."
The battleship of the Great Yu Kingdom soon sounded the artillery fire again. Although the sound was a little bit more, it was enough to deal with the British battleship that was completely in chaos.
At this time, Wilson was desperate.
Because after smashing a battleship, the second target of Dayu's iron armored ship was his battleship.
He couldn't avoid, there was no way to hide, he could only watch the fast running battleship collide with his battleship abruptly.
Following the shaking of the earthquake, his warship fell apart like the first warship that was hit and sunk, and he only felt a huge force coming and falling into the sea.
After the iron armored ships joined, the battle reversal became more and more complete. Within an hour, the only two remaining battleships fled in the direction of the Wa country in the waves.
"Captain, don't you chase?" Ding Chang looked at Xie Yuan.
"No, this naval battle is so wonderful that someone has to go back and demonstrate it to their master." Xie Yuan laughed, he was looking forward to the Queen of England to learn that the combined fleet was completely wiped out.
Ding Chang scratched his head, "That's right, hey, let them know how good we are."
Looking at the British, French and Spaniards struggling for help in the sea, Xie Yuan continued;
Let’s catch some captives first. For such a big thing, the emperor will definitely come to Dengzhou himself and bring these captives to him. emperor."
"Yes~EbookFREE.me~ Ding Chang responded and immediately took the soldiers to catch the living Westerners.
At the same time, Xie Yuan sent the naval battle report to Qingzhou.
Riding on the steam locomotive that night, the complex messaging station will deliver the message to the palace at midnight.
"Britain, France, and Spain combined fleet, prepare, we will go to Dengzhou tomorrow morning."
Because of the serious matter, Qian Dafu did not dare to delay. He woke up Xiao Ming who was sleeping, and the palace suddenly became lively.
"Yes, the emperor." Qian Dafu responded.
He saw that the emperor was very happy. This time in Dengzhou, he wiped out more than 70 warships of the three-nation alliance, which is tantamount to eliminating Western naval forces in Asia. In this way, they can do a lot of things during this blank period. .
Just as Qian Dafu thought, Xiao Ming was very happy about this. First, he saw the true strength of Da Yu's navy. Second, this battle will surely stir up waves in Europe with one stone, and Da Yu will officially A big step has been taken on the road to sea power.
