(New book, please support me!)
The Xianning was still struggling in panic. Captain Cheng Shuibian was desperately using binoculars to observe the position of Zhoushan No. 1. He commanded the warship to turn while desperately giving orders to the officers on the bridge,"
"Turn! Turn! Left full helm! Hurry up! Hurry!"
"Engine room, give me full power!”
Cheng Shuibian was busy commanding the Xianning gunboat while giving orders quickly.
"Hurry up and inform all the cannons to aim at the target and fire at full force! Open fire!"
"Where's the flag bearer? Quickly inform the flag bearer! Give me a signal and inform the gunboats behind to charge forward!“
"Go to the telegram room and inform the telegram operator to send a message to the military! We have encountered an unknown fleet ambushing us. They are not bandits! They were not bandits!
Requesting the military headquarters to send warships for support, requesting the air force to send planes for support! Hurry up and go!"
Just as Cheng Shuibian gave the order to fight back and sent a message to the military headquarters. The three Zhoushan Armored Gunships were advancing at full speed. The T76 tank cannon kept firing.
Cheng Shuibian, the captain of the Xianning, anxiously observed the situation while ordering the artillery to return fire.
"Fire! Open fire!"
The Infantry Regiment Commander Zhu Dachun who was with him was so scared that his face turned pale. One had to know that he was a landlubber.
Zhu Dachun was holding onto the armrest of the cockpit as he shouted at Cheng Shuibian.
"Old Cheng, there seems to be a small fleet on the other side! If we can't win, let's retreat first! Motherf * cker!
Which bastard said that it was a large group of bandits! Which bandit has a fleet? The cannons seem to be this big…"
"Old Zhu, stop talking. We were ambushed today. The sound of the enemy's cannons was at least a lot bigger than ours!”
Just as Cheng Shuibian, the captain of the Xianning warship, was wondering why the gunboat behind him had not rushed up yet, the gunboat behind him had already moved.
It moved, but in the opposite direction!
Wang Qiuye, the captain of the gunboat, saw the flag of the Xianning shortly after it was bombarded, but he also saw the speed of the Zhoushan No. 1's artillery.
Following that, two other armored gunboats that were exactly the same fired at the Xianning at the same time.
In addition, through the binoculars, he saw a smaller armored cannon charging forward from the left and right.
And the captain of the Xianning, Cheng Shuibian, had sent a flag for her to charge forward. Wang Qiuye knew very well that the Xianning was pushing her out as cannon fodder.
The captain of the gunboat, Wang Qiuye, thought to himself,"
A fellow cultivator would die, but a poor one would not!
He did something that made the Xianning and all the officers and soldiers on the troop-carrying ship behind him dumbfounded.
He ordered the gunboat to turn around at full speed and cut into the side of the Xianning. He used the Xianning to block himself in front as cover while his gunboat retreated north.
As he fled at full speed, he was still talking to himself,
"F * ck, it's fine if your 615-ton displacement Xianning doesn't take the lead.
Instead, he wanted a gunboat with a single barrel 25mm cannon and a 12.7mm machine gun to charge forward like a suicide squad. Do you think I'm an idiot? There's no way I'm going to do that!”
He had just rushed back a little and reached a slightly safer distance. Wang Qiuye had already proved how wise her judgment was.
The Xianning was hit!
When the Xianning had only returned fire for two or three bubbles, the Xianning had already been shot. The 14mm side steel plate was broken by the T76 cannon of the Zhoushan armored gunship, and the 600-ton hull clearly felt the vibration.
Cheng Shuibian and Wang Dachun, the regiment commander beside him, had the same thought in their minds.
"This time, it's over!"
Cheng Shuibian shouted at the signal soldier,"
"Hurry up! He quickly sent a message to the military. My Xianning was ambushed by an unknown large fleet and is now heavily injured.
In order to preserve the strength of the party, our Xianning warship must be evacuated immediately. Otherwise, it will definitely sink here!”
Then, Cheng Shuibian began to give orders. "Right full helm, right full helm! Full speed retreat, full speed retreat!"
Infantry Regiment Commander Wang Dachun snatched the binoculars and observed with all his might.
On the right, there was a smaller ship in front of them. The armored ship was using its machine gun to suppress their firepower.
He was currently on the Xianning as he dashed forward at full speed. The cannon diameter of the smaller armored gunboat was not small at all. It was much larger than the Xianning.
"Old Cheng, Old Cheng, a battleship is charging out from the front!”
At this moment, the gunboat that was charging over suddenly opened fire! The first shell hit the right side of the ship, only creating a black hole with fire and black smoke.
Then another shell hit the port side of the Xianning.
The entire hull shook violently, and the steel creaked under the pressure. This time, it was the work of the Soviet-style 1125 armored gunboat that had just fired.
.....................................................
One of the shells drilled into the thin steel plate of the Xianning and exploded in the aisle of the cabin, killing a soldier who was carrying machine gun ammunition to the deck.
Cheng Shuibian looked at the five armored gunboats that were charging at him, and his heart suddenly turned ashen. He was afraid, and the ammunition that kept exploding in the nearby sea made him even more afraid.
At this moment, an officer of the Xianning, whose face was covered in black dust, rushed into the command room.
"Captain! He had already been shot five times! The front cabin was severely damaged above the waterline! The passage under the front deck was blown up, Captain! Quickly think of a way! Captain!"
