The naval battle took place in the year 1894, September 17th. On the third day after the Zulong Kingdom retreated from the Bangzi Kingdom, the Sun Nation's naval fleet ambushed the Zulong Kingdom's naval fleet near the mouth of the Green River. It was also the first decisive battle between the main forces of the Zulong Kingdom and the Sun Nation.
On the morning of September 15th, the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom's naval fleet escorted over 4000 land troops to the Green River. After returning to the Green River, they encountered the Sun Kingdom's naval fleet. The battle broke out. The Sun Kingdom's naval fleet sent 12 combat warships to the Green River, including all their elite main warships. After the battle at noon, the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom's fleet severely damaged the Sun Nation's navy, including the Birong, the Deficiency, and the Xijing. Yang Zihao, the commander of the flagship warship of the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom's fleet, was also severely injured.
On the morning of September 15th, 1894, when the main force of the Zulong Kingdom's fleet attacked the warships, they went through the subsidiary rooms and matched the eight characters. Under Ding Chang's leadership, they arrived at Big Turtle Bay. At 1 am, the five battalions of the Ming Army, with a total of 4000 people, headed towards the mouth of the Green River. They were already helping the Zulong Army troops at the Green River defense line. At noon, the army arrived at the mouth of the Green River. By the next morning, the entire army was on the road. On September 17th, at 8 am, the troop-carrying ship was unloaded. At around 9 am, the " fixed-name " warship of the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom's navy hung its military flag and began to return.
At 14:23, the first guerrilla fleet of the Sun Nation's naval fleet was the first to discover the Zulong Kingdom's naval fleet and raised the signal flag of more than three enemy ships in the northeast direction.
At 10:30, the sentries on the masts of the Zulong Kingdom's " town ship " saw a few wisps of black smoke on the sea in the southwest direction. They immediately realized that it was the fleet of the Sun Kingdom. Yang Zihao randomly ordered them to hang the battle flag, load the cannons, and prepare for battle.
At 12:05, the Sun Nation Navy's No. 1 guerilla squadron had their backs to the rear, forming a single formation as they approached the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom Navy.
At 12:20, the Zulong Kingdom's naval fleet was moving forward. The two-word formation was changed to a horizontal formation. The starting point was the fixed ship in the center, and the other ships were spread out on the left and right. The fleet was called a echelon. At the same time, Yang Zihao gave the order for the teams to cooperate and move with the flagship as much as possible to build the enemy fleet.
At 12:50, when the distance between the two fleets was 5300 m, the flagship of the Ancestral Dragon Country's navy, the "Dingzi", opened fire first. The No. 1 guerrilla fleet of the Sun Country's naval fleet turned left collectively when it was 5,000 m away from the Ancestral Dragon Country's naval fleet and headed towards the right wing of the Ancestral Dragon Country's naval fleet at the risk of exposing the fleet to the front of the Ancestral Dragon Country's naval fleet. 10 minutes later, the support fleet fired their shells. Closely after that, all the warships of the Ancestral Dragon Country's naval fleet fired their cannons at the same time. 3 minutes later... The flagship of the Sun Nation also began to fire back.
At 12:53, the flagship of the Sun Nation's naval fleet, Songdao, began to fire back. The signal equipment of the flagship of the Zulong Kingdom's naval fleet was destroyed by the artillery fire. Yang Zihao, who was supervising the battle on the flying bridge, was hit and seriously injured. In an instant, hundreds of cannons from both sides fired at the same time. Smoke filled the air, and the sea water boiled.
