The enemy was entangled with those battleships, and the seven battleships fired back with their tail guns while heading towards this side. When they were about to arrive, they made a turn and leaked the enemies behind to the battleship formation. firepower against the enemy.

56 guns, at least 28 guns on one side participated in the attack, and the two sides opened fire at a distance of 600 meters.

Now a distance of 600 meters is nothing, and a distance of 200 meters is not the limit of British artillery fire, but the accuracy rate of both sides is not high.

The 280 artillery pieces of the New Qin Empire fired the first round of salvo, and the shells flew out of the muzzle one after another, making a sharp whistling sound. In the panic of the enemy, they fell to a place 100 meters away from the enemy's side. Landed 300 meters to their side.

After the two sides adjusted the shooting angle and data, they fired again, but the Portuguese was always 20 seconds faster than the Portuguese. After three rounds of salvo, a small area of ​​straddle shot had been formed above the enemy's head, and the splashed water column had already hit the target. The enemy's warships posed a threat, and the fourth round, the enemy's third round had only finished firing, and the shells came.

The enemy's artillery shells formed a close shot at about 50 meters from the fleet, and the splashed water column did not affect the observation on the battleship, because the fourth round of artillery shells had already been fired.

However, there was still no hit, only two 75mm artillery shells hit the enemy ship about ten meters away, and a nearly 50-meter-high water column fell, sweeping across the enemy's sails and the side of the hull. The sailing ship trembled on the sea, its speed was extremely slow, and the whole ship stopped moving forward for three seconds, and then the slightly tilted hull suddenly reversed to this side in retaliation, immediately pulling the unbolted safety on the hull. The roped Portuguese sailors and some of the ship's slaves were jolted off the ship.

A ship traveling at such a speed falls into the sea and is pushed by the waves, and can only be crushed into the sea by a warship traveling at high speed.

Before the fifth round of artillery was fired, the enemy's fourth round of artillery arrived as scheduled, and the battleship that had already rushed to a distance of 300 meters was immediately surrounded by the enemy's straddle artillery fire, and the falling water column brought tons of seawater.

Suddenly the crew on the deck became drowned.

In the distance, four to five nautical miles away, the Portuguese warships lined up in a wide formation, spreading out from the gunpowder smoke and water mist, looking all over the side of the sea, very scary.

The Portuguese warships rushing to the front quickly ran to one side. They knew that with their strength, they would defeat ten battleships. Otherwise they will be hit by their own gunfire.

The fast-moving warships quickly approached the enemy's 100-[-] meters, and the seven warships also smoothly approached Song Qing's large fleet.

Song Qing's large fleet of thirty warships has already launched.

They obeyed the fleet's signal, passed through the gap between the two squadrons of the fleet, and then stopped at the tail of the fleet to regroup, repair the battleship, and according to Song Qing's order, they were organized into the first battleship formation of the ironclad ship.

It can be regarded as a cover and rescue fleet. Now their situation is not very optimistic. Although they are not seriously injured, their firepower has disappeared a lot. Many artillery pieces have been damaged and need to be replaced immediately.

This takes a long time.

The first thousand and 470 chapters and four Portuguese people don't eat and fight too much

When the sixth round of artillery went down, the Portuguese felt overwhelmed. A steam engine warship was hit by a 75mm shell and hit the coal bunker, killing a dozen crew members in the coal bunker and injuring twenty boiler workers in the boiler room. The boiler was blown out, the power was greatly reduced, and the hull was seriously injured, causing the transmission shaft to tremble. The entire battleship deflected fifteen degrees to one side and immediately fell out of the battle line.

A shell from a 128mm cannon came from behind and hit a sailing battleship. Immediately, the middle section of the sailing warship broke. After boarding this battleship, and after they disintegrated, the scattered debris and scattered personnel covered the entire sea area, which greatly affected the evasion actions of the following battleships, and also caused a steam engine battleship to be hit by three 75mm shells again. From the chimney, to the turret, to the stern, the whole ship was twisted.

Had to withdraw from the battle line.

The Portuguese was astonished, and ran away frantically, not even fighting back, and ran away.

They gave up the battle position, and more than 30 Portuguese steam engine warships and several ironclad ships joined the battle position immediately.

Ten battleships faced the enemy's 800 battleships without any fear. They charged forward with a burst of artillery fire. The Portuguese immediately fought back. The distance between the two sides was [-] meters, but the artillery fire was more intense than before. The fleet rushed out, the left and right wings spread out, and the battle flames reached the most intense level.

Song Qing continued to stroll outside with the four ironclad ships and did not participate in the battle.

Thirty warships, although the performance is not very good, but it depends on who it is for. It may be a bit miserable for the British super fleet, but Song Qing still knows that he does not need to intervene when dealing with the Portuguese warships.

In terms of range and firepower, the Portuguese are unmatched.

The Portuguese iron-clad ships behind were also testing, looking around the battlefield, and the two sides watched each other through the two fleets fighting about four or five nautical miles in between. About 25 British iron-clad ships made the Portuguese proud, and Song Qing looked serious.

The first thousand and 470 chapters and five defeated the Portuguese fleet 1

Except for a few warships that were severely damaged, and battleships that were injured to key parts and were unable to fight, there were many warships left on Song Qing's side. Ten ironclad ships of Type [-] were still there, and three second-class battleships remained among the ten battleships. Because the seven ships entered the battle early and were deeply involved, they were taken care of by the enemy from the beginning, so five ships were sunk, two were severely damaged, and they withdrew from the battlefield.

The three ironclad ships of Type III were seriously injured before, but this time they were disintegrated and sank to the bottom of the sea. Five of the Type II ships were still able to fight. One ship was seriously injured but still able to fight, two heavily damaged ships were dragged out of the battlefield, one was sunk, and two Type [-] warships were still alive and kicking. The injuries were not serious, but the tasks they undertook could only be regarded as rescue and support. , dragged, because the next battlefield is no longer suitable for them.

The 75mm artillery on the enemy ironclad ship has greatly exceeded the capacity of their armored plates. Defense is no longer their advantage. In terms of firepower, they only have three 37mm artillery. Although they are turrets, they are all single guns. The [-]mm cannon can wash the deck to deal with the steam engine battleship, and it can deal with the enemy's thickened armor. The whole hull is riveted and cast with iron plates, which is equal to tickling. The [-]mm cannon can only be used in melee combat to deal with the enemy's soldiers who are jumping to fight. Or ransack the enemy's deck crew for use.

In other words, the ones that have combat effectiveness now, and the combat effectiveness is relatively good, are Song Qing’s flagship fleet, four iron-clad warships, and ten armored warships that are still able to fight, and three. A former second-class battleship that had been captured and remodeled by the British, and the five patrol ships of the main fleet that were injured just now, a Type III ironclad ship, and two Type III telegraph relay reconnaissance ships.
