I have to say that this point has really been guessed by Tong Lei.

The manufacturing cycle of the battleship is too long, and the consumption is too great. After completing the manufacture of a battleship, it is worried that the second battleship has not yet been completed, and the war has already started Charlie Crombel, and he has begun to manufacture. Heavy cruiser.

In a way, this is indeed a clear compromise.

After all, according to the situation of the empire at the time, it is very unwise to continue to bury the dead battleship.

Now that the problem is correct, there is only one battleship on the opposite side. According to the investigation results of the Elf Druid, the other four ships with a small tonnage, although they have good firepower, are obviously impossible to match the battleship...

At this moment, Tong Lei also showed the decisive decision as a fleet commander.

"The order is passed, maintaining the speed of 20 knots, the whole fleet enters the first-level preparation state, the southeast direction, all battleships are ready for shelling!"

With the release of this order, the heavy main ship of the four battleships slowly turned.

When the Imperial Fleet discovered the presence of the Yangtze River Fleet, it was already late.

At the moment when the other party entered the attack range, the battleship ship's main gun that had been locked in a large position, after a relatively efficient adjustment, a round of volley suddenly swept through!

The powerful shelling directly caused a violent sway in the entire sea area. It was hit by an imposing Imperial Fleet. It was just after the opening, and it had already lost its chance.

Two of the civilian warships, after being hit by the battleship's main guns, were sunk on the spot and failed to create a half-value in this battle.

There was no time to think about it. Polkruf was the naval commander who was rushed to the ducks when he was in the national disaster. At this moment, he could only give a counterattack order.

Inside, by the way, it is worth mentioning that the name of the battleship he was riding at this time is called the ‘counter-attack’. The meaning of this battle can be imagined.

The situation was urgent. The three-unit gun at the head of the counterattack was the first to fire, but failed to hit any enemy ship.

Although from the beginning, I did not expect it to hit a hit, but also be mentally prepared, but now facing this result, Polkruf is still biting his teeth.

Obviously, at the moment of firing, he still hopes that a miracle can happen. For example, if you directly sink the enemy battleship, you can not only weaken the enemy’s fleet’s maritime power, but also gain morale. A substantial increase.

Of course, it is now possible to recognize the reality, and the order is quickly issued. As the only battleship of the Imperial Fleet, the counterattack slowly passes over the hull and adjusts its own angle of bombardment.

At the same time, the four heavy-duty cruisers also slammed their heads and rushed forward while joining the battle of the firepower.

The situation at sea is undergoing subtle changes.

In this regard, the Yangtze River Fleet, which temporarily dominates the range and firepower, will naturally not be soft. The four battleships frequently fired and launched unrelenting gunfire.

A naval battle in the South China Sea of ​​the Empire officially kicked off at this moment!

At the same time, Yuan Xi, who has not yet known that the maritime fleet of the empire has been dispatched, is carrying half of the strength of the Yangtze River Fleet and rushing back to the South China Sea along the Grand Canal that runs through most of the North.

Compared with the earlier passage of the outer sea, the canal channel inside the empire is obviously much faster and can save them a lot of time.

Even so, after sailing from Manning City, I would like to go back to the South China Sea, I am afraid it will take two to three months.

In order to get the information of the South China Sea as soon as possible, he had already sent the Elf Druid of the army to fly back and confirm it.

However, after that, Yuan Xi still had no worries.

"The big school, there is a teacher Lieutenant Colonel, shouldn't you have anything to do?"

At this time, it was another adjutant of Yuan Xi, Wang Hao.

At the age of twenty-six, he is already a navy captain. Among them, the Yangtze River Fleet is also considered to be a young man, and he is also one of the young talents that the Navy is currently focusing on.

Qualifications are much lighter than Tong Lei, and there are still many things to learn, so I am currently following him as a deputy.

At this time, I heard Wang Hao’s words. Yuan Xi, who was frowning at the time, shook his head.

"The ability of Lieutenant Colonel Tong Lei is naturally no problem. The experience of the military for many years is also extremely rich, but..."

Speaking of this, Yuan Xi’s voice was a slight meal, and he seemed to think of something, and he could not help but sigh.

But I didn’t go on, or I didn’t know what to say.

Because Tong Lei has a shortcoming, it is to do things too much, a lack of flexibility.

To put it simply, he and Tong Lei, if they do a campaign deduction.

Then, before the beginning, Yuan Xi can accurately report all the operations of Tong Lei from the first step to the tenth step. It is absolutely formal to the extreme textbook operation, and there is no accident.

And it is precisely because of this ~lightnovelpub.net~ So Yuan Xi was worried.

From the perspective of an entire naval battle, they now occupy an absolute advantage.

The maritime power of the enemy empire was completely suppressed by them.

But now the fleet led by him, after the face of the battlefield in Manning City, the fact that their Yangtze River fleet has been dispersed is naturally exposed.

If the other side wants to turn over, the time when the Yangtze River Fleet is distracted is an excellent time.

In other words, even if the number of their own warships is not the same, the other party will start a war with a kind of 'scrabble'.

Under this premise, if the other party wants to win, it will inevitably use some special tactics.

And this special tactical means is exactly what Tong Lei is not good at dealing with...

There is no doubt that Charlie Crombelt as a player is equally aware of this.

As the commander of the fleet, Polkruf is a good-natured talent. Charlie Crombel does not expect him to save the world. He only needs to implement the plan. It is still very reliable.

I saw that the two sides fired at each other while the heavy fireships exchanged fire. The enemy’s civilian warships and destroyers, which were small warships, were quickly evacuated. Subsequently, they were rushed toward the Yangtze River fleet on a large scale. Come over.

In this regard, the first time to confirm the situation of the child Lei, the performance is still fairly calm, directly signaled the destroyer under the attack.

At this moment, above the sea, the second stage of the battle has begun!
