C2751 The shameless Huo Fu (1/2)
The Banshee was finished, the Pyrenees was about to be stranded too! The only battleships left in France were the flagship Glory s, the Wobang, Cecil, and the Komodo. These four battleships could still fight!
However, they were still unable to stop the Zhiyuan Warship's charge. Huo Fu could only watch as the Zhiyuan Warship charged towards him.
Huo Fu was terrified, at that moment, he was completely under control of his fear, and without saying a word, he immediately sent out Zuo Manduo's order.
The departure of the Glory caused the fragile battle formation to go out of control. The other three battleships did not know what to do, nor did they have Huo Fu's orders. They simply did not know how to defend against the enemy!
They thought that Huo Fu was about to change the array and avoid the impact of the Zhiyuan Warship, so they followed closely behind the Glory Zuo Manduo.
The three battleships drew an arc across the sea. Their strategy was very obvious, they just wanted to occupy the T head's shooting position again, and avoid the impact of the Zhiyuan Warship!
But the Cosmo was not so lucky. The commander did not understand Huo Fu's' brilliant strategy ', this stubborn and conservative madman. He still resolutely fired his cannon at the Zhiyuan Warship with his side!
Those 140-150 caliber cannons were pouring down with all their might, and people could even see the white lines created by the cannonballs flying through the rain!
The Zhiyuan Warship was already riddled with scars. After fighting for nearly two hours, more than 80 marines had been sacrificed and more than a hundred had been wounded!
The entire surface of the warship no longer had any intact areas. The explosion from the cannons left ugly scars on the surface of the armour. Some of the armor had been deformed by the explosions and had caved in for a full three inches!
Actually, according to the traditions of the British Navy, for a warship to fight to this extent, retreating was already not a shameful matter. To sink a warship and injure a warship was enough to allow a Zhiyuan Warship to occupy the limelight in the history of the sea.
However, the Zhiyuan Warship had hung the blood flag and used the most brutal method to start today's decisive battle.
He was scared that he was going crazy and that he was going to risk his life!
Huo Fu thought that he was the butcher who wielded a butcher's knife, but who would have thought that he would become the fish on the kitchen table!
The fates of the Pyrenees and the Banshee caused him to completely lose his courage. At the last moment when the Zhiyuan Warship was rushing towards the array, he actually began to pull apart the distance between them, Zuo Manduo!
However, Huo Fu was a person who wanted face too. He shouted loudly, ”All battleships, Zuo Manduo, evade the enemy's cannons! We are not retreating, we are attacking from the back! ”
”Open your eyes and take a good look! ”Now that the Chinese have entered our encirclement, no matter how powerful this battleship is, once it enters our encirclement, he won't be able to escape!”
Shameless! Huo Fu's shamelessness caused all the officers who were proficient in naval warfare to feel extremely embarrassed.
Huo Fu was right, the Zhiyuan Warship was still trying to drill into her own path of death! The situation on the battlefield was very subtle. Six Iron-armored battleship s were positioned in an array in the northwest of Spic Island, dragging the array from the southwest all the way to the northeast!
This T-shaped shooting array perfectly blocked the charging Zhiyuan Warship!
And behind the shooting array, was the extremely chaotic cruiser primary matrix!
This time, the French really gave it their all. Not only were there 6 advanced Iron-armored battleship s, there were also 20 or so cruisers that combined the power of wind sail with the steam power s.
Just now, in order to defend against the British's sneak attack, they had docked in the outer seas of the Spic Island to protect the 30,000 strong Marines. This was the main force that had threatened the hamburger, and the Navy clearly knew that it was impossible to capture the hamburger by itself.
If he wanted to complete the mission in the French Emperor, he would have to rely on the cooperation of the army.
