C2780 Defeat is like a landslide (1/2)

The sudden arrival of the fleet had completely scared the French senseless, Huo Fu could not even speak now, he could only stutter out a few words, his eyes revealing a look of despair and terror.

Another ship had arrived! Why did another ship arrive at Zhiyuan?!

It was a slender body with 210 large caliber naval gun s on both sides. The armor on its body emitted a metallic luster and the jet black smoke sprayed out in the air like the breathing of an angry bull.

Countless soldiers let out cries of despair. One ship was enough to make them suffer, why did another come?

Boom! Boom! Boom! The Brandenburg continued to fire at the French Fleet, the armor piercing bullets broke through the frigate's weak armor, and tons of water roared as it poured in.

The high explosive projectile blew up the deck of the warship, and the soldier's body rolled and screamed as it fell into the sea.

It was not only the Brandenburg that was fighting, the remaining sixteen frigate s had formed a defensive formation around the Brandenburg, using their own bodies to defend against the French artillery.

In a short period of time, the sound of the cannons on the sea and black smoke filled the air. The Brandenburg s rushed to a close distance of over a thousand meters, Zuo Manduo turned the ship around and all three sets of naval gun s extended out from the right side of the ship.

Boom … Boom … Boom … The cannons continued to fire, and with each shot, the battleship would shake the sea to the point of splashing into thousands of pieces!

To a battleship, a distance of a kilometer could basically be used to shoot out bullets. Especially this kind of large caliber rifled cannon, its initial speed was extremely fast, even a distance of a kilometer would not be reduced by a little bit.

The Zhiyuan Warship's massacre scene repeated itself, and this time, the Brandenburg was not fighting alone. With other frigate s as meat shields, he did not need to rush into the battle at all, as long as he kept this distance, he would be able to reverse the situation!

”How do we fight?” Damnit, how do we fight? ” Countless French soldiers cried out in despair.

”None of our cannonballs have any steel plates that can penetrate Zhiyuan Warship s... However, if the cannons of that person were to hit, that person would be fatally injured! ”

”How do we fight?” Huo Fu, you stand up for us, tell us how should we fight this battle? ”

The roaring soldiers were questioning their commander, but Huo Fu had long since lost his ability to speak, and could only watch as he killed his own warship.

Duke of Newcastle was also dumbfounded, ”Get our marines to withdraw! Damn it, William I and Bismark are even deceiving us! ”We've been deceived …”

”The Zhiyuan Warship actually has a sister ship! Are all our Intelligence s trash eaters? A bunch of trash! ”Trash!”

”Send the signal to the Prussian, tell them that our marines are still at sea!”

Who would care if you were British or not. If you didn't want to take advantage of the situation, would you have suffered casualties?

The cannonball exploded in the sky above the sea, the shock wave swept everything away, the Floating Corpses on the sea dragged the English and French's Marines and charged outwards.

”Save me …” ”Dammit …” They hadn't even shouted twice when the waves of air from the explosion pushed the living soldiers into the sea.

It was even more so for those crazy pieces of metal. The metal fragments were flying around like bullets. There was no pattern at all, and not a single person was left alive.

Chaos, utter chaos! The French Army's own formation was already chaotic. Ten ships that had withdrawn from the bombardment were currently blocking in front of the British Fleet. There was no way for them to provide reinforcements in time.

As for the remaining battleships, they lined up and shot towards the Spic Island under Huo Fu's command. They gave their T heads to the Prussian fleet for nothing.
