The first fleet of the Japanese Navy!
Commander Kawaki Hasetani stood on the head of the ship, Izumo, looking at the information in his hand!
"Shikamaru and Nagara still haven't responded?”
"No response! They should all be shattered!"
When the adjutant beside him said this, he lowered his head!
"Damn it!"
Keio Hasegawa slammed his fist on the table. He would never believe that it was the Tanaka Navy that sank the three cruisers. The Tanaka Navy was now stuck in the Yangtze River and could not get out!
"Could it be a warship bought from another country?”
Kawaki frowned and thought of a possibility!
"Calling headquarters, does Flower Seed buy warships from other countries? If so, ask for specific warships!”
"Yes, sir!"
Kawaki Hasegawa was the highest commander of the Japanese navy. He was only a lieutenant general. The Japanese did not even send out their battleships to invade the Japanese navy. To them, the Japanese navy had long been thoroughly searched. Now, a Japanese navy suddenly appeared and sank their fleets in the East China Sea!
Obviously, this was unbelievable!
Not only were the devils confused!
At the last moment, Ichiro Kumoto had sent a message to all aspects of planting flowers. Even the Consulates of various countries such as Shanghai had received the message!
After the translation, everyone was dumbfounded!
Chen Shaokuan, the commander of the Shanghai army and the navy, who was actively deploying troops on the Yangtze River, looked at the message in his hand and looked at the adjutant beside him."Our fleet has gone out to sea?"
"Reporting to the general, our navy's first and second fleet, thirty-one surface warships are all gathered at the Jiangyin waterway!”
"Did the new ships bought by Jinling encounter the Japanese?”
"I'm not very sure!"
"Contact Jinling immediately and ask about the situation of this fleet!”
"Yes, sir!"
Almost an hour after Ichiro Kumamoto sent out the telegram!
The radio waves had never stopped in the Japanese's home base, Flower City, Jinling, and other places!
The Japanese had activated the spies planted in Jinling, Shanghai, and other key departments, wanting to figure out what this flower navy that had suddenly appeared was!
At the same time, Flower Country was also investigating which faction was behind this navy!
After all, a fleet that could sink a Japanese sub-fleet was not a small fleet!
Especially Chang Shenkai. He touched his bald head and looked at the generals in front of him. He put the telegram on the table and asked!
In the end, he did not get a reason!
Immediately after, some secret departments in Shanghai and other places received a high-level order to secretly contact the fleet that had sunk the Japanese navy!
At the same time, on the surface of the Eastern Sea!
The first fleet of the Japanese military had already entered the firing range of Yu Zhiqian's Dusk!
The Japanese fleet maintained their eight-character formation and spread out, rushing towards the area where the Shikamaru and Nagara were sunk!
However, because the Japanese fleet did not have any reconnaissance planes, they could only observe the situation from afar through binoculars!
Although it was already noon, there was still a thin layer of fog on the sea. The Japanese could not see the situation beyond 15 nautical miles!
"Sir Commander, the Japanese fleet's flag, the Izumo, has entered the effective range of our main cannon. Please give us your orders!”
"Have we entered twenty nautical miles? Then beat him up!"
"Yes, sir!"
The Izumo, this ship that the Japanese had dispatched military flags to plant flowers, could be said to be notorious!
During the Battle of Songhu, the Izumo bombarded Luodian and other areas. One shot could wipe out a company of defenders!
Other than that, the infamous indiscriminate bombing was done by Commander Kawaki Hasegawa of the Cloud!
Following Yu Zhiqian's order!
The nine 406 caliber cannons began to adjust the angle of the muzzle according to the position reported by the reconnaissance plane!
Following that, a series of thunderous explosions sounded!
The nine cannons opened fire!
On the Izumo, Kawaki Hasegawa was using binoculars to observe the surface of the sea. He had a vague intuition that something bad was about to happen!
However, it was difficult for him to determine what exactly it was!
At this moment, he heard a sharp and ear-piercing sound coming from the sky!
"Enemy attack!" he immediately shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking!
A cannonball landed directly on the deck of the Cloud as if it was precisely guided!
It directly pierced through the deck of the Cloud and exploded in the cabin!
The one-ton cannon exploded in the cabin!
The entire front half of the ship was blown up!
The hull of the ship was torn apart, and seawater was pouring into the Cloud at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The entire ship began to lean forward, and the stern slowly tilted up!
"Commander, the Cloud is sinking!"
After the explosion, some commanders on the bridge quickly pulled Kawaki and prepared to evacuate!
However, at this moment, they realized that the cruiser closest to them had also been hit!
Moreover, a shell directly hit the side waterline of this heavy cruiser!
A huge crack more than 30 meters wide was blasted open on the side of the 10,000-ton heavy cruiser, and the ship was slowly sinking!
