With a few aids and support outside, the curtain of the decisive battle of the supply fleet fell, the huge British fleet was scattered, and the remaining British fleet had long been unwilling to fight.
The 21 ironclad ships seem to be more numerous than the enemy, but they fail in terms of maneuvering speed and defensive power. Their defensive power is supposed to be pretty good, and it is impossible to KO them with three or four cannons. The overall riveted armor plate, plus The teak board is lined with a thickness of one foot and two thick. The skeleton is a new type of hard steel that has been forged from fine steel. The keel is made of new type of fine steel that has been cast many times. up.
But the failure of the British ironclad ship was that there were too many additional things. The superstructure on the hull was too high, and two tall masts were erected. The lower section was made of steel, and the upper end was made of pear wood. , can find the enemy far away, but it affects the speed of the battleship, increases the wind resistance, the tonnage is large, the buoyancy is high, more artillery can be piled up, more coal can be loaded, and more personnel can be loaded. The speed of the ship breaking the waves has been reduced, but the power of the steam engine is still too low. They can only produce a steam engine of [-] horsepower now, and more boilers and steam engines are needed to be connected to push such a heavy warship.
The artillery has no steering mechanism, the artillery used is bulky, laborious to load, insufficient shells, and poor quality.
Insufficient training of personnel, this fleet was ordered to set sail hastily, the elite sailors and gunners on the shore were not fully equipped, and some foreign sailors and immigrant sailors in some ports were temporarily hired, insufficient preparation, insufficient ammunition, and untrained and skilled personnel. Scarce shortage.
Management is a problem, the combat power is too low, there is bravery, but there is no cooperation, the morale was very high at the beginning, but in the first duel, after losing seven warships, it immediately fell down, and there were injured warships after two hours of fighting If you want to escape, after fighting for five hours, it has already formed a rout, especially the peripheral supply fleet and auxiliary fleet. Otherwise, how can the support fleet led by the adjutant just divided here defeat the enemy's supply fleet, and how can the auxiliary fleet capture them? Enemy so many warships.
However, as the main fleet of the British, the main ironclad fleet led by the flagship is still very capable of fighting. It wiped out most of the other battle line fleet of Wunan's main ironclad type IV, and almost all the rest were injured. Four ships can continue to stay on the battle line, and the others can only clean up the battlefield and rescue the crew who fell into the water.
When Wunan and their fourteen warships fought against the British's 21 ironclad ships, the British fought fiercely.
The continuous firepower attack caused many warships of Wunan and the others to be shot. If it wasn't for their thick skin and fast speed, the British would have been beaten to the ground. Thousands of naval officers and soldiers fought continuously for more than five hours, and it was dark The enemy has not been taken down yet, but the fourteen warships here have problems one after another.
The power chamber was hit, lost power, couldn't move, was besieged by the enemy's extra warships, the officers and soldiers fought back hard, the turret was hit many times, jammed, unable to turn, and had to fight back with secondary guns, ransacking the enemy's deck, Fight hard to avoid being surrounded and attacked by the enemy, but you can only be dragged out of the battlefield by other warships.
The gunners on the deck suffered heavy losses, so they had to use slaves and captives from the bottom warehouse, as well as other miscellaneous soldiers to act as gunners. They were operated by experienced gunners and assisted by others, which caused the artillery to fire slower and less accurate. .

How to fight after the first thousand and 460 chapters five
After learning about the battles on the battlefield, John Bing was completely in a bad mood. That fleet was even stronger than his own. Sixty pure ironclad ships, with an auxiliary fleet and support supply fleet, were actually defeated by others. up.
His heart trembled.
He didn't know whether he should catch up and fight, or turn around and leave immediately. Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, he had no meaning to be here. After hesitating for a while, he could only turn back to the Porto lock island with his fleet. Where is Portugal? Only when the human fleet reconciles can he feel safer.
Dozens of warships, after half a month of long-distance raids, only harmed a few small islands, captured some prisoners, destroyed some buildings and forts, and killed and wounded some land soldiers. This time it was a big loss. The New Qin Empire chased after them to find them, but killed a super fleet of them in one fell swoop.
He felt that his official career was bleak. If he could not recreate the Qin Empire this time, he would really have to retire after this time.
With such loss, John Bing spent three days traveling day and night to return to Porto Island. On Porto Island, the Portuguese were almost rusted, and everyone was basking in the sun.
Life was quite good, the fleet was in the harbor, and they were dispatched after receiving his news, but turned back halfway, Lieutenant General Glass never thought of helping the British.
Although there are generals in his team who are urging the British, he is still leisurely and leisurely, ignoring them, whether he can be dispatched or not, he still has to listen to him.
He still has the strength to suppress these people.
Seeing the bruised British battleship staggering back, Lieutenant General Glass couldn't tell how happy he was. After hearing that the British were defeated, he had a greater say in front of his subordinates. Help the Brits out.
Because they all know that the British who are so powerful have been defeated. Could it be that they are going to be cannon fodder? In the face of interests and lives, they choose their own lives.
A few days later, they were very happy to see John Bean returning with his fleet weary with his head down, and they watched with secret smiles as Major General John Bean led the fleet into the port.
He prided himself on his foresight.
Soon more than 50 warships entered the port, and the Portuguese warships had no choice but to be expelled. The British naturally had a sense of superiority.
His heart trembled.
