Chapter 199 Full Heavy Artillery Battleship (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe!)
"For the glory of the Imperial Navy, kill the Orientals!"
Lieutenant General Rozhestwinski roared loudly.
"For the convenience of the Imperial Navy, kill the Orientals!"
The officers and soldiers of the Tsarist Russian Navy shouted loudly.
"For the empire, for His Majesty Tianhuang! Onboard His Majesty Tianhuang, Onboard the Eastern Empire!-*
On the other side, Lieutenant General Dongxiang Heihachiro's eyes were also full of fanaticism.
"Onboard His Majesty Tianhuang! Onboard the Eastern Empire!"
The soldiers of the Eastern Navy also felt that their blood was boiling, as if they were about to explode.
As time went by, the warships of both sides got closer and closer. The main guns of each door have been loaded and aimed at the opponent's battleship.
In order to seize a favorable position, the fleets of both sides are constantly adjusting their course, trying to seize a favorable position.
However, these Mikhail I-class battleships of the Tsarist Russian Navy have a maximum speed of 22 knots. In contrast, the maximum speed of the "Fuji-class" battleships and "Shikishima-class" battleships of the Orientals is only 18 knots.
They want to seize a favorable position under such circumstances, the difficulty can be imagined.
In another time and space, the reason why the combined fleet of the Eastern Navy was able to kill the Second Pacific Fleet of the Tsarist Russian Navy is very important because under the order of Lieutenant General Togo Heihachiro, the battleship formation of the combined fleet stared at the artillery fire of the Russian battleship and turned. , successfully seized the T prefix, and then concentrated fire to attack the battleships of the Tsarist Russian Navy, and soon exploded those battleships of the Tsarist Russian Navy one after another.
But in this time and space, the Orientals will never have such an opportunity.
Although the battle has not officially started, the foreplay has already begun.
However, the Orientals soon discovered that they could not seize a favorable position. The two battle lines of the two sides are like forming a parallel line. The battleships of the Eastern Empire Navy turned, and the battle line of the Tsarist Russian Navy also turned. Even if the battle line of the Eastern Navy wanted to shorten the distance, it would be impossible.
You know, the distance between the two battle lines is about 10,000 meters apart.
The practice of the Tsarist Russian Navy made the Orientals a little confused.
You must know that naval battles in this era, even battleships between battleships, are often only a few kilometers, or even only two or three kilometers. It is not so easy to hit the enemy's warship from 10,000 meters away. Moreover, because of the power of the naval gun, even if it hits the enemy's battleship at a too long distance, it may not be able to penetrate the armor of the battleship!
The Eastern Navy learned from the Royal Navy of the Empire on which the sun never sets, so it is natural to learn the tactics of the Royal Navy. Therefore, in the face of the new tactics of the Tsarist Russian Navy, some are not suitable.
"Damn, what the hell are the Russians trying to do? Could it be that they want to fight at such a long distance all the time? Or, they think they can kill our warships at such a long distance? How is this possible? ?” Lieutenant General Dongxiang Heihachiro was full of doubts.
"Your Excellency, the actions of the Russians are indeed very strange. However, the longer the delay, the better for us. Once the sun never sets, the Russians' Pacific Fleet can be reinforced. When the time comes, the Russians will be dead!" Colonel Hayao Shimamura seemed very happy.
Dongxiang Heihachiro frowned tightly, subconsciously thinking that the Russians must have some kind of conspiracy to do this. It's just that it's not clear why the Russians did this.
On the battleship "Mikhail I", the flagship of the Tsarist Russian Navy's home fleet, Lieutenant Admiral Rozhestvinsky and Lieutenant Admiral Carlov both had a smile on their faces.
"Next, it's time for the Orientals, and even the people of the sun never set, and the navies of other countries to see how powerful we are." Lieutenant General Rozhestwinski said.
"Yeah, it's time to make them tremble!" Lieutenant General Carlos Ma also felt elated.
You must know that the Imperial Navy of Tsarist Russia has been suppressed by the Imperial Navy on which the sun never sets, so that they are very aggrieved. Well now, I can finally unreservedly show the power of the Tsarist Russian Empire Navy.
"Order all the ships to fire, and kill the warships of the Japanese in the shortest possible time!" Lieutenant General Rozhestwinski ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency the Commander!" The captain of the battleship Mikhail I replied.
"Fire!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Following the order of the gunner, the three triple-mounted 50-caliber 305mm main guns of the "Mikhail I" battleship let out a roar that shook the sky.
Orange flames shone at the muzzle of the gun, and armor-piercing bullets flew out of the muzzle one after another, roaring and hitting the battleship "Shikishima" of the Eastern Navy.
Because it was a test firing, only five of the nine 305mm main guns fired. The other four doors will be fired in the next round.
Once the straddle is formed, it will be transferred to the concentrated fire shooting.
Five 305mm artillery shells flew over a distance of tens of thousands of meters and hit the sea surface, splashing high water columns.
....0
Because the distance is too far, the point of impact is too far from the Japanese battleship "Shikishima". The closest point of impact is three hundred meters away.
However, the Tsarist Russian Navy was not discouraged, but adjusted the pitch angle of the muzzle and adjusted the shooting parameters.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Immediately, the other four 305mm main guns fired again.
This time, although it still did not hit the target, it did not form a straddle shot. However, the point of impact is much closer.
At the same time, the other five "Mikhail I-class" battleships of the Tsarist Russian Navy were also firing fiercely at their respective targets.
All of a sudden, there was rumble of artillery on the sea, and warships of the Tsarist Russian Navy kept firing.
It's just that the shelling of the Tsarist Russian Navy failed to score a hit. However, if you look carefully, you can clearly see that "the point of impact is getting closer and closer to the Japanese battleship.
Once a hit is made, or a straddle is formed, these battleships will switch to focused fire. At that time, the three triple-mounted 305mm main guns will all fire at the maximum rate of fire.
At that point, getting a hit is just a matter of probability. If you're lucky, you can get hits pretty quickly.
These "Mikhail I-class" battleships of the Tsarist Russian Empire Navy will show the world how powerful the full-heavy artillery battleships are!
