Chapter 2489: be patient!
Baipi's luck was that the engagement time began in the afternoon, and it was sunset soon, so Zhu Baipi escaped from the battle smoothly, and no battleship was sunk for the time being.
The naval battle during the sailing period is such a ghostly thing. It is common to fight an enemy ship all day long without sinking it.
It was late at night, and the moon was very bright in the sky, and the sea surface was clearly illuminated. The South China Fleet was chasing the White Fleet.
Even if there is no moonlight, the scattered lights are mixed with pillar-like searchlights, and there are flares hanging in the sky, which is very convenient for the night battle of the South China Army.
Unknowingly, the South China Army’s night combat ability has been greatly improved, and even likes night combat.
The white-skinned battleship fled to Crete. After a little bit of shock, they did not flee all around, but kept their formation to the west together.
The fleets of various countries are roughly gathered together. They are unwilling to do so and want to return to the game.
The officers and soldiers of the South China Fleet were full of interest. They tasted the fruits of victory and wanted to take the white skins a step further.
A part of the officers and soldiers stayed in the battle position, and the rest were forced to rest, but many people were very energetic and couldn't sleep.
Close your eyes and close your eyes to rest your mind, recalling the previous battle scenes.
really followed the emperor to have meat!
It’s easy to win during the day, Rear Admiral Liu Guoxuan said in a big way: "I didn't even start to exert my strength, they fell!"
The colleagues sneered and said: "You are a fake tiger!"
Liu Guoxuan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the emperor is here, white skin looks invincible!"
The emperor is here, and winning is easy!
The loss of the South China Fleet was extremely small. Later military history records used the word "extreme" to record the victory of the South China Army that day.
In the sea at night, the two sides were acting separately. The South China Fleet was chasing, while the White Fleet was fleeing. Under Yan Changwu’s order, the South China Fleet did not fully release its high speed and was not in a hurry to catch up with the enemy ship, but did not rush. Following the White Skin Fleet, the South China battleship that rushed forward used the bow artillery to bombard the second and third guns, while the White Skin responded with stern guns.
The long-range artillery shells are not powerful, but the South China battleship has been bombarding, reminding Baipi, "We are chasing you!"
It was late at night, and the lights on the battleship were thin, no searchlights or flares were fired anymore.
In the lonely night sea, the flashing light of the muzzle flame illuminates the dark sea around it, and the silhouettes of the battleships of both sides can be vaguely seen. This scene makes the Irish British Major General Edward Sprague have Feeling in my heart, after returning to China, I painted the oil painting "The Pursuit of the Night". The background of the picture is gloomy, with only a few bright lights, reflecting the huge figure of the South China battleship in the distance and the white-skinned panicked expression in the firelight. The tattered white-skinned battleship is vividly painted.
The painting is of a very high level of art, and the identity of the artist is even more valuable. As a result, it was bought by Mr. Jia Yubao, a well-known Chinese businessman, for 10,000 gold pounds, and then sent back to China and collected by the Southern China Imperial Military Museum!
The belly of the fish is white in the east, and the day is about to dawn.
"Marshal, we have the advantage, why don't we catch up and have a good time?" On the Imperial-class battleship 02 "Fuqiang", Captain Huang Bo complained through a telescope to observe the enemy.
He hadn't killed enough during the day, and now the order he got was to chase after him, making it difficult for him to fight.
Huang Bo was only thirty-five years old. It was when he was young and strong, and he only felt that a moment should not be wasted.
Mr. David smiled and said: "You concentrate on studying tactics, training soldiers, and being open-minded are your strengths and weaknesses. The world is so big, you should take a look."
He told Colonel Huang Bo: "In the African savannah, hyenas chase wildebeest herds. They are very patient. They chase for a few kilometers until they exhaust their prey. They find the right opportunity to strike hard. Eat, there is no danger!"
"How many kilometers to pursue?" Huang Bo was puzzled. Mr. David told him: "A lion on the African grassland can catch up to 500 meters. It's not bad. The fastest cheetah can only persist in hunting when preying. About 200 to 300 meters, they will give up chasing!"
"Not only in Africa, but also in the wolves in our Daming area, they also travel long distances when chasing prey, and finally win!" Mr. David told Huang Bo: "Be patient!"
That's it! Just wait.
Mr. David praised the emperor and said: "Your Majesty has the ability and patience. He wants to win and let more people live to enjoy the glory. Like our previous battle in the Mediterranean, we all won, but His Majesty has never pursued it. In one fell swoop..."
While he was still talking, Huang Bo suddenly cried out: "Marshal, some prey is left behind!"
An Italian battleship "Scipio" with 68 guns in Genoa lost 35 percent of its personnel during the daytime combat, and its sails were damaged in many places. Even the sailors on the ship did their best. , Can't increase the speed, can only watch the ship abandoned by the big fleet, the big fleet can't return to fight for an abandoned ship.
In the lower deck of the British battleship "Bold" with 74 artillery doors, faces of panic were reflected in the bleak light. They were all immersed in the half-man sea for most of the night, exhausted, yet It doesn't help.
The battleship "Bold" fought boldly in the daytime battles and performed outstandingly. It was of course taken care of by an Empire-class battleship in Nanhua. Multiple 42-pound shells hit the waterline deck of the "Bold", causing cracks. Sea water is constantly infiltrating, and as we sail, more and more sea water flows into the bottom tank.
Even though the sailors kept working hard, they made up for leaks and pumped water, but the ship sank and the speed was getting slower and slower.
The two white-skinned battleships fell, and the officers and men on the remaining white-skinned battleships were awe-inspiring. The captain Johnson Galthvin on the British ship "Enthusiastic" waved to the battleship "Bold": "byebye!"
He used to work on the battleship "Bold" for a while, UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not expect this battleship to end up like this.
The South China battleship formation has caught up!
The battleship "Scipio" and the battleship "Bold" surrendered!
Effortlessly, two battleships were made in vain. Seeing that these two enemy ships raised our army's flag, our officers and men uttered a warm cheer: "Long live the emperor, the empire will win!"
On board the "Fuqiang" ship, Captain Huang Bo happily said: "Our patience has been rewarded!"
"Yes, our patience has been rewarded!" Mr. David said: "Patience in the war, Baipi knows what we are, and knows our rules!"
Baipi knows that the Chinese will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. If they bring a ship to cast, they will have better treatment. If the warship is sunk, the Chinese will not necessarily save Baipi. Now they will welcome the wounded with a smile. The white-skinned people sat on the deck honestly, watching the doctors of the South China Army treating their wounded!
On the battleship "Bold", a white-skinned man in the uniform of a South China Army officer, holding a bag, was giving the captives milk candy. He said in English: "My fellow, our South China Army treats the prisoners preferentially. As long as you are obedient, please wait. We will put you back after the war, everyone can go home safely!"
The captives nodded, took the milk candy and ate it, it was so sweet!
