C1336 Sea War Complete Victory (1/2)
It was already eleven in the afternoon, and the sounds of the Amami Oshima's counterattack had echoed for six hours. At this moment, Kaolong Mountain Battery had already finished firing off the last artillery shell, and thought that the twelve hundred cannons would be enough for them to fight for a day, but in the end, everyone underestimated the intensity of this sea battle.
For a long time, all the soldiers on the cannon were robots. All they knew was to aim silently, load, fire, aim again, reload, and fire again.
By the end of the fight, they didn't even have to aim for it. The straits were full of targets, the water was full of fleeing soldiers, and any shot would have paid off.
The only thing the defenders of the fort could do was to accelerate, accelerate, and accelerate again... His normal rate of fire of five minutes per round had now increased to three minutes per round. Within six hours, the nine cannons had emptied over 1,200 artillery shells.
”Fire!” Fire! Continue shooting... Fire! ” Company Commander was completely unaware that his ears were bleeding. He had already been deafened, and the cannons had stopped firing long ago. However, he was still immersed in the battle and could not extricate himself.
The brothers rushed over and hugged him. ”Company Commander! We have no more shells! ”The cannons have all been emptied …”
The excited Company Commander's eyes were filled with craziness. He couldn't hear what his surrounding brothers were shouting about, he only clenched his fists and roared fiercely. ”Fire!” Continue firing! Sinking all enemy ships... Hehehe, none of you should even think of escaping! ”
”Splash …” A soldier picked up a bucket of water to wipe the cannons, which was half a bucket of cold water and splashed the Company Commander awake. Come quickly and have a look! The enemy's flagship has gone mad … He wants to die together with the Zhiyuan Warship! ”
When the Company Commander finally woke up, he led his brothers to the edge of the trench and looked down. Sure enough, they saw the St. Peter that was burning like a big brazier rushing straight towards the Zhiyuan Warship.
At the moment, the distance between the two ships was less than a thousand meters, but the Zhiyuan Warship still did not show any signs of dodging.
He was, after all, the Russian Army's flagship, and the protective armor was strong enough. Even though the dozen or so artillery shells were riddled with wounds, it still struggled to move forward.
Maybe it was the last bit of luck the Expeditionary forces had protecting him, or maybe it was the last bit of light before death. In short, the St. Peter had executed a tragic suicide attack for everyone on the battlefield.
If he didn't succeed, he would die! If I can't beat you, I can die with you! The tragedy of the end of the fleet was now unmistakable.
The battleships that were fleeing in the ocean and the sailors that were swimming were all stunned. At that moment, everyone forgot about escaping in panic, at the gap in the deck's fence, EdStefanski stood there holding his command blade like a statue, both of his feet seemed to be rooted to the ground.
The old general kept repeating the words, ”Sinking Reach …” Crash Far... ”Sinking Reach!”
Xiao Letian also saw the tragic scene, he sighed and put down the binoculars, ”After all, this is also a thousand year empire! After all, they were also a race that possessed their own glorious civilization … They have their own pride and perseverance. Regardless of friend or foe, this self-esteem is worth learning from! ”
The burning St. Peter grew closer and closer, and in the blink of an eye, the distance between the two ships was already less than 500 meters. In a sea battle, this was already an extremely dangerous distance, even the slightest mistake could cause a collision.
