Chapter 1357： Stabilize the position

On the surface of the battlefield where the shells flew, along with the gradual reversal of the situation, the imperial fleet that was in dire straits was in a terrible situation after suffering the continuous shelling of three battleships.

As a naval commander who was ordered to be killed by the ducks, Polkruf was obviously confused at this time.

Their great tactical plan is undoubtedly useful.

In the case of a unilateral slaughter of their empire's navy, the hard-boiled squad has made a clear battle.

However, under this premise, it still failed to win. There is no way to do this. It can only be said that the Yangtze River Fleet, as an enemy, has much harder strength than their Imperial Navy.

Now looking at a whole battle situation, in the state of suicide ship annihilation, Steadier, who has stabilized his position and regained the fighting rhythm, has changed his tactical style.

The scattered destroyers were directly called back to form a strict formation.

According to the armor thickness of the battleships, the bombardment power of their destroyers is difficult to pose a threat.

The only effective means of attack is probably a torpedo.

But the opposite is also clear about this, so the destroyer of the Imperial Fleet has been completely stared.

Even the three battleships of the Yangtze River Fleet have specially adjusted a part of the sub-cannons to attack.

At this moment, as the maritime hegemon of this era, the tyrannical strength of the battleship has been safely demonstrated.

At this moment, in the heart of Polkruf, there has been a strong retreat.

The odds slipped away between his fingers, and the battle in front of him had already made him feel less than half the chance of winning, and even went on. The battleship that he had taken at this time had to be in the enemy’s main artillery. Sinking under force!

No time to think about it, now is the time to make sacrifices.

Signals are sent directly to the destroyers that have been difficult to pose a threat to the Yangtze River fleet.

Obviously, Polkruf is going to let these destroyers help them clear their way.

After all, from the point of view of value, the loss of using the destroyer to open the road is minimal.

And think about it, although he did not win this battle, but he slammed a battleship of the enemy, plus a large number of destroyers.

Even if there is no credit, after returning, it should not be punished.

With such an idea, Polkruf retired in his heart.

And Tong Lei in the distance, apparently guessed the enemy's mind.

The bombardment of the three battleships, one round after another, swept the past, and it is self-evident that the intention to sink the other side is already.

In the continuous roar of artillery, another heavy cruiser of the Imperial Fleet was sunk by this tyrannical firepower.

During this period, a destroyer squad was attacking fast and attacking.

But unfortunately, the torpedo on the destroyer has basically been used in the battle to stop the suicide ship.

Without a torpedo destroyer, its own firepower can be said to have fallen sharply, and it is difficult to pose enough threat to the enemy ships.

At the cost of sacrificing the destroyer, the Imperial Fleet’s counter-attack ship and the surviving heavy cruiser quickly separated from the minefield.

Nowadays, Tong Lei, who has gradually gained the upper hand, naturally does not intend to let them go, and the pursuit order is directly issued.

Between the chasing and the escape, the speed is faster, and a destroyer chasing the front quickly sends a signal...

"Reporting the lieutenant colonel, the destroyer after the enemy's break, sprinkled a large mine in the sea ahead!"

Tong Lei, who heard this, jumped slightly, then he took a deep breath and then screamed...

"Stop chasing, confirm the damage of each ship, and prepare to meet with the rear supply ship."

This is a very helpless situation. When the mine is smashed down, it will definitely not go straight to the past. If you choose to circumvent it, then the time is enough for the Imperial Fleet to escape, so it has become a meaningless move.

Temporarily returning to their temporary position, sitting in the captain's room, watching the battle damage report of Tong Lei, the mood is very heavy.

Four battleships, the battleship 006 sank, one moderately damaged, and the remaining two were slightly damaged.

Twenty destroyers, nine destroyers sank, one was severely damaged, four were moderately damaged, and the remaining six were all slightly damaged.

For the Yangtze River Fleet, which has always had an absolute upper hand, this wave of losses is terrible!

After meeting with the rear supply ship, the warship with mild damage and moderate damage can still be repaired, but the destroyer that is seriously damaged, even the engine is burned out, basically close to The status of retirement.

Today, on the battlefield of the South China Sea, the remaining forces of the Yangtze River fleet are left with only three battleships and ten destroyers.

At the same time, the emperor's fleet, which escaped, quickly left the sea after entering a circle, entered a tributary connected to the inland, and quickly landed at the nearest port.

This beating down, the Yangtze River fleet suffered heavy losses, and the loss of the Imperial Fleet was naturally less than that.

The suicide ship was completely destroyed.

There are only two destroyers left, one of which is close to half-destroyed four heavy cruisers, three sinking, one heavy damage.

The only one battleship counterattack was also blown up by a main gun, and the damage of the hull was not too light.

Under this premise, this 80% record can be said to have basically been hit by a suicide ship.

In this way, in order to ensure his own situation, Polkruf naturally has to work harder when writing a report.

It is necessary to write all kinds of sinister wars of this war. At the same time, it is necessary to focus on describing the major achievements of an enemy battleship. Then, it will be vague and add a dozen destroyers to destroy the destroyer. People produce a feeling that the work is greater than the past.

This is naturally the meaning of exaggeration.

At that time, the situation was so chaotic, who could still notice how many destroyers were destroyed?

However, relative, there is no way to verify.

So as long as you don't write too much exaggeration in the report, even if you find that there are one or two errors, you can say that the situation was chaotic at the time, and it was wrong, and it is basically impossible to pursue it.

In this way, such a report was quickly sent to the Imperial City.

After seeing the report, Charlie Crombel can be said to be a direct sigh of relief.

At least for now, the suicide ship's style of play is useful.

However, according to his original expectation, he wanted to kill at least two battleships on the opposite side when he was distracted. This is obviously impossible for his imperial fleet to reach...
