"All battleships, fire at will according to Combat Plan No. 1!”
After seeing the other party move first!
Yu Zhiqian quickly issued the latest battle order!
The two battleships, Dusk and Sun Destruction, began to cruise south, pulling away from the cruisers!
Maintain the advantage of the main cannon's range!
When the cruiser entered 25 nautical miles, within the effective shooting range of the Sunset!
The Dusk did not fire!
Instead, he continued to wait!
Yu Zhiqian had limited the firing range of the Dusk to 20 nautical miles!
This was Yu Zhiqian's plan to give the Japanese an illusion that the effective range of the Dusk was 20 nautical miles, which was about 36 kilometers!
In fact, the effective range of the Dusk was about 23 nautical miles. The effective range that could guarantee the accuracy was about 40 kilometers!
It was to lure the main battleships of the Japanese into the effective range of the Sunset!
Eight cruisers charged at the Sunset at high speed. Yamamoto was seven times eight, and he was holding binoculars as he stared at the Sunset!
The technician beside him was nervously calculating the distance between the Sunset and the cruiser!
When the cruiser entered 20 nautical miles!
The first main cannon of the Dusk opened fire!
The shell landed behind the Japanese cruiser!
Yamamoto's eyes lit up!
The technician next to him looked up at Yamamoto Shichixita and quickly replied,""Twenty nautical miles!"
"Continue calculating!"
"Ha Yi!"
On the command tower of the Changmen, Yamamoto Seven by Eight continued to observe the Sunset!
The Dusk's main cannon had a maximum range of about 20 nautical miles!
The corners of Yamamoto Seven by Eight's mouth slowly curled up!
The effective range of the main cannons of the Longgate Battleship and the Hyuga Battleship was also 36 kilometers!
Ise and Mountain City were slightly closer, 34 nautical miles!
This distance could be offset by the advantage of numbers!
"Inform the rest of the battleships that the enemy's main battleship, Dusk, has an effective range of 20 nautical miles, while Sun Extermination has an effective range of 18 nautical miles!”
"Ha Yi!"
"Speed up, don't let the other side escape!”
"Ha Yi!"
After calculating the maximum firing range of the enemy's main fleet, Yamamoto Seven by Eight heaved a sigh of relief. There was too little information in his hands before he could engage in battle. Yamamoto Seven by Eight felt a little uneasy!
Now, this uneasiness was swept away!
As long as they maintained a distance of 20 nautical miles and chased after the enemy's warships, they would definitely be able to take down the enemy if they fought two of them with four warships!
Moreover, shooting while a battleship was moving required a lot of calculations. It was not something that a novice navy could master!
Yamamoto Seven by Eight was confident that he could defeat the other party with the help of the navy veterans in his fleet!
In the battle zone, the first to be sunk was the Japanese submarine!
After receiving the order, the four submarines rushed towards the Sunset at full speed!
However, before they could enter the 20-nautical mile range of the Sunset, they encountered the two Destroyers, Drive 1 and Drive 2!
The submarine had nowhere to hide in front of the two Destroyers.
A Japanese submarine was hit by a deep water bomb. The hull broke and seawater poured in. After losing pressure under the sea, it disintegrated at the bottom of the sea!
A battle on the water!
When the eight cruisers charged towards the Sunset!
Yu Zhiqian's Xinzhi Yuan and the other three cruisers also clashed with the Japanese cruisers!
The targets of the Japanese cruisers were very clear. They were the two battleships, the Sunset and the Sun Destroyer!
Therefore, they kept moving forward at high speed!
Meanwhile, the New Origin was still moving southward, maintaining a relatively safe distance. The nine 203mm main cannons were constantly flashing with fire!
One by one, the shells landed beside the Japanese cruiser!
"Boom!"
Sun Destroyer mainly hit a cruiser that was moving at full speed!
At this moment, the advantage of the Bisman-class battleship was displayed!
The 380mm caliber high firing rate main cannon could fire three rounds in a minute, greatly increasing the margin of error. In the end, it was the first to achieve victory over the Sunset!
The Japanese cruiser that was hit by the Sun Destroyer first exploded with a huge flame!
Immediately after, a loud explosion sounded from the cruiser!
The entire warship was surrounded by flames and sank to the bottom of the sea!
At this moment, the Sunset had also obtained some results!
The third cannon of the Dusk hit a cruiser!
Although it didn't hit him directly!
However, the one-ton artillery shell brushed past the cruiser's hull!
It directly tore a huge crack in the cruiser's hull!
The waterline armor was cut open, and the cruiser began to tilt rapidly!
One of the two Japanese cruisers sank and the other was injured!
Yamamoto Chaichisei 8 also saw that Yu Zhiqian's warship formation had been disrupted. He revealed a gloomy smile, adjusted his navy cap, and ordered,""Attack!"
The four main Japanese warships had officially joined the battle!
Nagato, Hyuga, Ise, and Yamashiro chose their targets and opened fire!
