Chapter 2 Crossing the Sino-Japanese War

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The sound of thunderous cannons was endless, and the already gloomy sky was covered with smoke, as if it was on a black and white landscape painting.

"Are you going to war?"

Wang Chenhao looked into the distance, but he couldn't see clearly from the distance. So he hurriedly found a military high-power telescope, which scared him immediately.

On the sea far away, warships sprinted through the waves of black smoke, shaking and swaying in the huge waves of shells splashing.

Among the two sides of the war, Wang Chenhao was the first to recognize the Japanese plaster flag. However, when he looked closely, it was not the 88th Fleet of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, but the Japanese Fleet using primitive artillery to fight.

Then, Wang Chenhao saw the other party again.

The long dragon flag fluttering in the wind, the navy gray painted, and the two dragons playing water logo painted on the bow.

This is - Beiyang Navy!

"Are you dreaming?" Wang Chenhao pinched his arm and screamed in pain. It was not a dream.

"Can we travel through time?" Rows of question marks appeared in Wang Chenhao's mind. Countless people dreamed of good things about traveling through time every day. Now it fell on Wang Chenhao, but it was not worth his happiness.

This is the Battle of the Yellow Sea in the Year of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, which made Wang Chenhao’s soul dream the most tangled and entangled.

At this time, two Beiyang Navy warships in the northwest Dalushima were besieged by four warships of the Japanese fleet's first guerrillas because of their slow speed. The other ship accidentally ran aground and ran aground.

After Wang Chenhao observed it, he found that the two ships Chaoyong and Yangwei were caught, while the one stranded was the Yangwei.

"This should be the naval battle just began!" Wang Chenhao, as a military enthusiast, knew this history well and was both excited and sad.

What was excited was that he had the opportunity to witness this naval battle and could see with his own eyes the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Navy fought bravely.

But how could he not be sad when he knew the end of this naval battle?

At this time, a warship in the distance was moving rapidly from west to east, and its huge ship could be seen clearly.

Dome armor protection, the bridge that runs through the front and rear main decks, the black hull identification line, and the plaster flag that Wang Chenhao hated in his dreams.

"Damn it! This is the Yoshino!" Wang Chenhao immediately recognized the Japanese warship that owed China's blood debt.

It was 1:00 p.m. on September 17, 1894. The slower three ships Hiei, Fusang and Akagi in the second group of the Japanese Combined Fleet became the target of the Beiyang Navy. Hiei and Akagi were attacked by the Beiyang main battleships Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, and were severely damaged.

The commander of the joint fleet, Yuki Ito, urgently ordered the first guerrillas to give up attacking the loss of combat effectiveness and the stranded Yangwei to quickly rescue them. At the same time, the first group of the team, Matsushima, Itsuki and Chiyoda, turned right, forming a clamping formation against the main force of the Beiyang Navy.

At this time, the Yoshino, as the flagship of the first guerrillas, rushed to the east to rescue the severely damaged Nishikyo Maru.

Under the command of the commander Deng Shichang, the Zhiyuan ship intercepted the Yoshino and covered the Jingyuan attacking the Xijingmaru.

The Zhiyuan and Yoshino pk. Wang Chenhao knew the ending and suddenly became nervous and hurriedly drove the Jiaolong diving over, hoping to help.

The Jiaolong does not have torpedo weapons, and the only harpoon cannot help at all. Wang Chenhao complains about why he did not drive a nuclear submarine through...

Wang Chenhao did not dare to get too close to the combat waters, because any near-arrow bomb was enough to severely damage the Jiaolong or even sink it.

After observing for a while, Wang Chenhao drove the Jiaolong and stopped in the shooting blind spots of the two ships Zhiyuan and Yoshino, and raised his periscope to watch the battle. At the same time, he was thinking about how to help.

At 1:30, Deng Shichang, known for his bravery in the Beiyang Navy, led the Zhiyuan to take the initiative to attack the Yoshino, with the double-equipped 210mm main gun on the bow and the single-equipped 210mm main gun on the stern opened fire at the same time.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The fifty-kilogram shells roared at the Yoshino, stirring up huge water columns dozens of meters high, and the waves flew hundreds of meters away, very violently.

In terms of main guns, although three of the four 200mm main guns of Yoshino can hit sideways at the same time, they are not the opponent of Zhiyuan. However, the 47mm rapid-fire gun on the side of Yoshino has 20 more than Zhiyuan, and its firepower is immediately beyond Zhiyuan.

Like old enemies, the two sides entered a fierce battle as soon as they met. All the artillery fired in a terrible way, and countless shells were shot at each other.

In an instant, the cannons roared, and smoke filled the smoke. Huge columns of water rushed straight into the sky, and the sea water suddenly boiled.

Whenever the Zhiyuan ship's shell hit the Yoshino, Wang Chenhao suddenly shouted "Okay". On the contrary, when the Zhiyuan ship hits the enemy's shell, he always shivered nervously.

"What to do? What to do? What to do?"

Wang Chenhao scratched his head and found a solution. He knew that the biggest problem between the Zhiyuan ship and the Yoshino PK was not the difference in tactics between the two sides and the accuracy of the gunners, but the amount of ammunition of the Zhiyuan ship was not as good as that of the enemy.

The Yoshino ship has more than 4,100 tons, while the Zhiyuan ship is only 2,300 tons. The tonnage gap leads to a huge gap in ammunition base and reserves. The two sides fight without considering the consequences and the Zhiyuan ship will be exhausted within an hour.

When the ammunition was exhausted, Deng Shichang could only use his trump card - hitting the Japanese ship, which was exactly what Wang Chenhao didn't want to see.

"What are the weaknesses of the Yoshino? All the weaknesses of such fast speed are covered up!"

"Speed, if you reduce its speed, you will definitely be arrogant!"

"However, how to slow it down?"

"Yes! Attack its underwater propeller!"

Wang Chenhao said to himself, looking at his only property, the Jiaolong. Its two large pliers can be tried. However, Wang Chenhao knew that the Jiaolong pliers could not destroy huge propellers weighing more than one ton, and would instead be destroyed by its reaction force.

At this time, the other three ships of the Japanese Navy's First Guerrilla had covered Hiei, Akagi escaped from the war zone, turned around and inserted into the rear of the Beiyang Navy, forming a clamping force.

The main guns of the Dingzhen two ships cannot attack both sides at the same time, so one side is always exposed to the firepower of the enemy ship.

At 2:40, the Dingyuan ship suddenly shot a gun at the starboard No. 3 gun position, and fierce flames spurted out from the exploded hole. In order to protect the No. 3 gun position, Liu Buchan, the Dingyuan pipe leader, hurriedly concentrated his manpower to put out the fire, and the offensive immediately became weaker.

The first guerrillas of the Japanese ship quickly captured the fighter plane and took the opportunity to approach and attack the Dingyuan.

Seeing this, Deng Shichang directed the Zhiyuan ship to quickly move closer to the flagship to resist the Japanese ship shells.

In this way, the four warships of the first Japanese guerrillas formed a favorable "t" horizontal position for the Zhiyuan ship, and the firepower on the side of the side instantly hit the Zhiyuan ship.

At about 3 o'clock, the Dingyuan fire was finally put out, but the Zhiyuan ship was heavily shot.

Seeing that the Zhiyuan ship's gunfire became weaker and more and more shots were shot, Wang Chenhao knew that the Zhiyuan ship's ammunition was in a hurry and could not last long.

At this moment, his heart suddenly rose to his throat.

At this moment, the fire of the Chaoyong was never extinguished, and it burned to the ammunition depot and sank for death.

The violent explosion shock wave flew the entire main gun of the Chaoyong into the air and then fell to the sea several hundred meters away from Wang Chenhao.

The Chaoyun waved Wang Chenhao and suddenly woke up Wang Chenhao. In a flash of lightning, Wang Chenhao thought of a way to save the Zhiyuan ship.
