Chapter 3 So Rough
Thinking of this, Wang Chenhao hurriedly drove to the point where the gun barrel fell to the sea at full speed, and after searching, he quickly found it.
The main gun of the Chaoyong is 254 mm caliber, about 7 meters long, and is cast from 25 tons of stainless steel, which can be described as a "murder weapon".
After the Jiaolong controlled the "murder weapon", he rushed forward with a muzzle, and then quickly drove towards the Yoshino.
It is difficult for ordinary ships to catch up with the Yoshino at 23 knots, but the underwater speed of the Jiaolong is 28 knots and can easily catch up.
After approaching the stern of the Yoshino ship, Wang Chenhao controlled the Jiaolong to maintain the same speed as the Yoshino. Then, with his evil smile, he carefully controlled the robot arm and sent out the "murder weapon" suddenly, stabbed it directly into the Yoshino's stern propeller, and instantly released the robot arm to prevent it from being reversed.
"So rough, I won't stab you to death!" Wang Chenhao smiled evilly.
This "murder weapon" is unprecedentedly powerful in terms of length, thickness, and hardness, and its insertion effect is naturally quite amazing...
The main gun barrel of the Chaoyong hit the huge propeller of the Yoshino, making a fierce and harsh metal friction sound, and the two twisted together in an instant.
The gun barrel was twisted into a twisted shape, wrapped around the Yoshino's propeller, transmission shaft and balance rudder, and soon it could not be moved.
Wang Chenhao took a breath of air. Fortunately, he did not use a pair of pliers from the Jiaolong to poke the Yoshino's chrysanthemums, otherwise the ship would be destroyed and the people would be killed.
As the Yoshino boiler continued to be supercharged, the rudder and propeller were twisted and broken, and the Yoshino, which was fighting fiercely with the Zhiyuan ship, immediately lost its power and its speed quickly lost.
Wang Chenhao was very happy after successfully blowing up the Yoshino chrysanthemum, and named this move "The First Waste of the Desolate" and secretly said that he was also avenging Chaoyong.
The Jiaolong accelerated and left the safe area. Wang Chenhao rose up his periscope and waited to see how the Yoshino was exploded by the Zhiyuan ship.
At 3:10, the Yoshino lost its motivation and stopped. When Captain Kawahara was excited to kill the Shiyuan ship, he suddenly saw that the Yoshino stopped moving and was so angry that he was going crazy.
When the naval battle was at its peak, the warship suddenly stopped, which was equivalent to putting its head under someone else's knife and being slaughtered.
When the Yoshino ship's steward Deng Shichang was suffering from the urgency of ammunition, he still couldn't do anything to the Yoshino when he suddenly discovered that the Yoshino was stopped. Although he didn't know why, this once-in-a-lifetime fighter jet must not be missed.
"Right full rudder, No. 1 and No. 3 torpedo prepared!" Deng Shichang gave the order, staring at Yoshino Ho, looking at the beauty who didn't take such a thing!
"Full the rudder right!" The steering wheel controlled the servo, and the Zhiyuan ship turned right urgently, splitting a huge wave several meters high on the bow of the ship. The hull completed the right and rear turn in a sharp tilt, turning around and aiming at the direction of the Yoshino.
Kawahara was about to see the Zhiyuan ship's action and immediately understood the other party's intentions. He hurriedly ordered all the naval guns on the starboard side to aim at the Zhiyuan ship and fired violently to prevent the other party from approaching.
The Japanese officers and soldiers on the starboard side of the Yoshino knew the danger after stopping, and their eyes were red and they poured shells into the Zhiyuan ship like crazy, trying to make a final resistance.
"Two and four, go forward at full speed!" Deng Shichang knew that the Yoshino's more like this meant that they were more afraid, so he strengthened his beliefs.
"Two in and four, go forward at full speed!" The pipe wheeler repeated the command, and at the same time pushed the control gate to the top, the Zhiyuan ship advanced at full speed with the maximum output power.
On the sea, Yoshino was parked there like a silly chicken. The bow of the Zhiyuan ship rushed towards the Yoshino at high speed. At the same time, the double-equipped 210mm main gun on the bow opened fire violently to suppress the firepower of the enemy ship and cover it up.
"The No. 1 torpedo is ready!"
"The No. 3 Torpedo is ready!"
When they were more than 300 meters apart, Deng Shichang saw that Yoshino still did not move, so he shouted loudly.
"Start the No. 1 torpedo!"
"Torpedo No. 1 launch!" Guan Leibing pressed the launch button while repeating the order.
A "bang" sound!
The No. 1 torpedo on the bow of the Zhiyuan ship was ejected and plunged into the sea water five or six meters away. After a few seconds, the torpedo floated up at a position 100 meters away and maintained a depth of about 2 meters below the sea surface, and rushed towards the Yoshino at high speed.
"The No. 1 torpedo has been launched!" The second torpedo deputy reported quickly.
Seeing the line where the bubbles floated upwards facing the back of the Yoshino ship, Deng Shichang was immediately relieved.
This distance and angle can definitely hit it based on his experience.
"Two advances and one! The left rudder is full! Starboard artillery fire is ready to attack!"
After firing the bow torpedo, Deng Shichang knew the power of the Yoshino side rapid-fire cannon, so he hurriedly made evasion actions to prevent him from hitting the Yoshino.
"Two cars come in!" The wheelman pulled the control gate to the end, and the Zhiyuan ship suddenly slowed down.
"Full the rudder left!" The helmsman hit the left rudder full, and the Zhiyuan ship slowed down and turned left. While the starboard side was facing the Yoshino, four 47mm machine guns on the ear platform opened fire violently to cover and fire torpedoes.
At this time, the single-mounted 210 main gun at the stern of the Zhiyuan ship also had a firing boundary and immediately provided fire support.
"Start the No. 3 torpedo!" In order to ensure safety, Deng Shichang once again launched the No. 3 side torpedo located at the waterline belt below the command tower.
With a loud "boom", while the No. 3 torpedo was shot out, the No. 1 torpedo that had just been launched hit the bow of the Yoshino.
The bow of the Yoshino was hit by a 18-inch black-headed torpedo made by Germany. The torpedo with a charge of 180 kilograms exploded violently. In an instant, it collided with each other like thousands of thunder and lightning, making a loud noise, instantly shattering the bow of the Yoshino. The entire turret flew into the air for hundreds of meters high and was torn into several pieces and then fell to the sea.
The Yoshino hull was violently shocked, and fire gushed at the bow, and thick smoke rolled like a torch.
After a while, the No. 3 torpedo launched by the Zhiyuan ship hit the part of the starboard ship of Yoshino and exploded at the waterline.
In an instant, the explosion caused huge waves hundreds of meters high, and the fire was covered with smoke and shot up, rushing to the sky.
The Yoshino tilted sharply to the left in the powerful explosion shock wave. The Japanese sailors on the bridge fell into the cold sea without any time to react, while the Japanese soldiers near the explosion deck were directly blown away in the air, their bodies were torn and dismembered by the air waves and then they performed free fall movements.
The violent explosion instantly tore open the dome armor of the Yoshino waterline, forming a huge hole seven or eight meters wide. The hull immediately broke into two pieces, and the sea water poured in violently. The Yoshino began to sink at a speed that he saw.
More than 300 Japanese naval soldiers on the Yoshino were killed on the spot after being attacked by two torpedoes, while the rest jumped into the sea one after another.
In September in the north, the cold sea water caused their arms and legs to cramp, and they suddenly burst into tears and howls.
The Yoshino was about to sink, and all the officers and soldiers of the Zhiyuan ship immediately cheered, with a rustling sound and a rainbow of morale.
The officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Navy ships not far away also cheered loudly and exclaimed. The depressed aura that was passively beaten suddenly disappeared, replaced by endless fighting spirit and desire for victory.
The sinking of the Yoshino immediately shocked the entire Japanese joint fleet.
As a perfect combination of speed, firepower and tonnage, the Yoshino is a warship purchased by the Japanese Navy at a high price. It is considered to be a warship that can completely suppress the Beiyang Navy. Its actual combat performance has been recognized by the Japanese Navy, and its suppression power over the Beiyang Navy is obvious to all.
However, the sudden stop of the Yoshino and then sunk by the torpedo of the Zhiyuan, which made the Japanese Navy very puzzled. Even the officers of various countries watching the battle on British warships in the distance were confused.
However, in the ever-changing battlefield, no one has the time to think about those things, just record them and go back to analyze them later.
The commander of the Japanese Joint Fleet Yuki Ito urgently ordered the officers and soldiers of all ships to work together to continue fighting because the battlefield situation was still beneficial to the Japanese Navy.
