"Yang pipe belt, three boilers have been out of service due to water intake or pipe rupture, coupled with long-term lack of maintenance and maintenance, and coal quality problems, our fastest speed is only 13 knots. If you touch it again If we get to the opponent, we can only fight to the end." Earl Spey, who is the gun chief of the cruiser Kaiyuan, reported to Yang Yonglinhui.

3 months! It has been 3 months, and since the last simple maintenance and repair in Weihai, this armored cruiser has not docked for 3 months! During this period of time, the cruiser Kaiyuan sank eight Japanese naval transport ships in the Yellow Sea, sent 1,500 Japanese troops to the sea to feed fish, and burned 3,200 tons of various materials.

　　Then this warship ventured across the Tsushima Strait and headed towards Wonyama. When the Japanese fleet was searching for the Kaiyuan in the Yellow Sea, outside the Wonyama landing site, Mainz flattened a small half of the landing site with dense shells and destroyed 4 transport ships that could not be avoided!

　　 And when the Japanese fleet took a shortcut from the Korean Strait to the Sea of ​​Japan, the warship actually passed through the Shimonoseki Strait, and then entered the Seto Inland Sea! After making a lot of noise, he even ran out of Fenghou Channel! The performance of this road can be described as horror!

After the cruiser Kaiyuan sent a merchant ship with a gross tonnage of more than 5 tons and 3,500 soldiers of the Japanese navy and army into hell, the warship had not even encountered the opponent's main fleet, and then the warship began to hunt down in the East China Sea. Transport ship, and completed three supplies!

If nothing goes wrong, this warship may be able to hold on for a longer period of time, and even a few more cases can be used for rough maintenance. However, for some reason, the Japanese fast fleet successfully captured this ship off Shandong. Beiyang cruiser!

The three cruisers Kasuga, Matsushima, and Akashi blocked the evacuating cruiser Kaiyuan. The enemy was extremely jealous when they met. After more than two hours of fierce battle, the Japanese fleet successfully moved the tail of the Kaiyuan. The barrel of the main turret was broken and at least 5 secondary guns were destroyed. Several large holes were punched in the armor belt of the hull. Of course, the final result was that the Kaiyuan escaped again under the cover of night, and the Matsushima Then he will never return to Japan...

　　 Japanese gunners once again carried forward their spirit of death, and Japanese warships inherited the long tradition of firing firecrackers! The Songdo, Mikasa, Hanoi, and Mutsu possess souls at this moment! The self-destruction of the Matsushima on this plane is definitely inevitable! It is a great result of the safety of the naval ammunition depot in the Da Daily! The random stacking of shells and the lack of arson transmission channels make everything a matter of course!

　　 During the battle, a 280MM shell successfully ignited the 120MM shells stacked next to the gun position! Then a violent explosion filled the ammunition depot with raging flames! Accompanied by a loud noise! The Matsushima has completed the reincarnation of fate!

(Tucao, when everyone is saying that the British BC firecrackers are a historical tradition, why not look at the Japanese navy’s firecrackers tradition? The British were beaten during the war. How many famous Japanese warships were killed in non-warfare. Yes? This once-famous warship is so unclear and thought-provoking! It is said that the Japanese are fine, why not consider the issue of its own ammunition warehouse?)

　　 After the end of a big battle, the remaining two Japanese warships dared not chase them, indicating that you Y are waiting, I still have brothers! After this battle, Mainz finally reached the brink of exhaustion. The battleship non-core protection zone has been beaten beyond recognition, and because of the British, the battleship could not call a neutral port, and the northern port also laid mines under the cover of the Japanese fleet. The two subsequent supply failures caused a sharp drop in Mainz's supplies.

"Perhaps in the final battle, even if the warships can support, the ammunition quantity is probably not enough! The ammunition stock of all artillery is only a little over 30%. We can obtain food and coal by robbing Japanese transport ships, but what about the artillery shells? "Hippel said to Yang Yonglin more than once. At this level, even if everyone is proud of it, they must also consider the worst.

"When we meet another neutral ship, I will send you and your comrades-in-arms away. This war is over and your country has done its best. The rest is Yang's business." Yang Yonglin It is very clear that the fact that the other party can accompany him to fight until now is no longer just a matter of the buyer and seller.

　　 Long before returning to the East China Sea, during a maritime supply, the German officers of the auxiliary supply ship told Scheer and others that their mission had been completed and they could evacuate with the ship at any time. In the eyes of ordinary people, the country has agreed. Why should these soldiers participate in a battle that is doomed to defeat? Hector's challenge to Achilles is certainly commendable. He is a hero, but at the same time he is considered a futile action. From a rational point of view, the significance of Scheer and others' continued stay is very small.

"I'll wait, let the wounded and those who are willing to leave first." Scheer finally decided to stay. God knows if he can continue to supply the next time. Maybe this is his last chance to evacuate. In the end, more than 100 German naval officers and soldiers. More than 20 wounded and more than a dozen people willing to evacuate boarded the supply ship and embarked on their way home, while Scheer, Hipper and others continued to board the Mainz.

　　 "Why are you staying?" Hipper asked as the transport ship disappeared into the sea.

"I'm experiencing it, you know? The moment I joined the Imperial Navy, I decided to leave the North Sea pond sooner or later! The North Sea is too small, I don't like it, I like the feeling of sailing and fighting on the ocean, in order to live in the future Longer, I have to accumulate experience." Earl Spey said with a smile, and then changed the conversation: "So what about you? In the future, when you go back, it is very likely to command a battleship. What will you do?"

"I will stay in the North Sea. Although the North Sea is small, it has the most powerful navy in the world! They will be the only adversary worth worrying about in the High Seas Fleet. I mean the opposite of what you think. I don’t look at the size of the place, but See if there are enough opponents!"

　　 To be honest, after experiencing so many things, Hipper has a dislike of Japan to a certain extent, and naturally he does not have a good impression of the British! And this feeling continued to ferment in the following days! Because of the relationship with the British, my own supply was cut off...

　　 And for a period of time, Hipper's daily food was hard bread and jerky. The former needs to be softened with water, while the latter needs to be powdered with a file and then put in water before eating! "I feel that what I eat every day is wood and stone! Maybe one day I will not die under the opponent's shells, but by these **** food!" Hipper complained more than once.
