When the whistling sounded again, except for a few young staff members who put down their work and listened carefully, the other staff members did not respond.

It’s not that I didn’t hear it, but that there are more important things to do.

At the beginning, the communications consultant sent a damage report for the "Jihe" and "Guijiang", and Gui Boyong analyzed the situation of the battle.

What's the best analysis?

When you walk to the porthole on the last side of the right, you can see the two warships behind. To be precise, the fires ignited on the two warships.

During the sudden and dense artillery fire, all six battlecruisers were shot and caught fire.

Fortunately, the fire on the front four warships was quickly controlled and then extinguished, and only the two behind were in a bad condition.

Actually, it's very bad!

The key is that the speed is too fast. Even if the sea breeze is not considered, the deck wind has more than 20 knots, so the officers and soldiers who have damaged the control cannot get close to the fire point, so they cannot put out the fire.

In order to put out the fire, the officers and soldiers of the two warships continued to suffer heavy casualties.

According to the telegram sent by the "Jihe River", unless the speed is reduced to less than fourteen knots, the fire on the surface of the hull will only be burned.

Obviously, this is a huge problem.

On the dark night, it is difficult for the lookouts to see the warships in the distance, let alone the distance measurement. If there is a bright fire, it will be completely different.

With the light of fire, you can accurately measure the distance even if you are separated by twenty kilometers.

The biggest taboo in night artillery battles is that the ship catches fire.

The worst thing is that the enemy only needs to stare at the Jihe River and Guijiang River to grasp the whereabouts of the 21st Squadron and be targeted.

what to do?

In fact, everyone knows what to do, but no one says it.

"Report!"

A telegraph soldier ran over three steps in two steps. After shouting, he handed the telegram that had not been dry yet in front of He Yongxing.

Before He Yongxing could reach out, Gui Boyong took over the message.

After a quick glance, Gui Boyong was stunned, as if he had suddenly become petrified.

After taking the telegram, He Yongxing frowned. After handing the telegram to a staff officer who was approaching, he walked towards the chart table.

After two more staff members, the telegram was sent to Bai Zhizhan's hands.

After reading it, Bai Zhizhan was also stunned.

It was the "Guangyang", the flagship of the 33rd Squadron, which was only a few dozen words, and most of them were numbers and letters, but the content was extremely shocking.

Just north, the Second Battle Patrol team had already begun sailing southwest, and the speed exceeded twenty-five knots.

What do those guys from the Nai Navy want to do?

Want to take advantage of the situation!?

In addition, there are eight words at the end of the message: Long live the navy, and the empire will last forever.

In the Imperial Navy, these eight words have a unique meaning, representing a battle to the death with the enemy.

The Guangyang number "Guangyang" shut down the radio after sending this telegram, and will send the telegram again after defeating the powerful enemy, otherwise it would have been sank.

It was not just the "Guangyang" that was generous to the difficulties, but the six warships of the 33rd Squadron.

Although it was impossible to see, it could be imagined that after sending this telegram, the Guangyang took the lead and rushed towards the enemy ships without looking back with the other five armored cruisers. Even though they knew they were going to die, the navy soldiers on these warships were determined.

Just as Marshal Chen Bingxun’s famous saying: The Imperial Navy is an inspiring hero!

The 33rd Squadron went to the trouble and took the initiative to face the guns of the Second Battle Patrol team, in fact, to buy time for the 21st Squadron.

When Bai Zhizhan walked over, the navigation staff had marked the information in the telegram onto the chart.

If you want to say anything, I can only say that the miscellaneous parts of the narrow imperial kingdom are indeed very cunning, and I know very well how to get the most benefits with the lowest cost.

The information on the chart is clear at a glance.

To the east of the 21st Squadron, about thirty degrees southeast, are eight battleships of the two main teams. Through the muzzle flame, the lookouts have made a judgment that all of those battleships belong to the Newland Navy and are equipped with fourteen-inch main guns.

The fast battle team is on the north side.

Because the fast combat team did not turn, the fast combat team will next move from the north to the 21st squadron to the northeast and then to the southeast.

It can be seen that the breakthrough is in the northwest!

There, it happened to be the direction of the Watcher Strait.

If the Second Battle Patrol team is allowed to quickly enter, and they are straddled in the northwest direction, and they will try their best to waste all their efforts, the 21st Fleet will be unable to fly.

Even if the main force of the Newland Navy was the Newland Navy, the fast combat team of the Bran Navy was the quick battle team of the Newland Navy, because they quickly inserted and cut off the retreat path of the 21st Squadron, the Navy could use this to seek credit, to be precise, to be precise, enjoying the success.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhizhan gritted his teeth with hatred.

More than two years ago, if the Naoyi Empire had not been treasonable, even if the Newland Federation sent troops to participate in the war soon, the Liangxia Empire would not have fallen to the point of defeat, and at least it would not have lost its initiative in a few months. As long as there is enough time, even in just one year, the Liangxia Empire can complete strategic adjustments to the Newland Federation's participation in the war, and other countries of the Allied Group can face new challenges calmly.

It can be seen that the guys in the Navy are all speculators who forget their righteousness when they see profit.

Although I was so angry that I felt itchy, Bai Zhizhan knew how to control his emotions.

After a brief discussion, Gui Boyong made suggestions on behalf of all staff members, and did not make adjustments to the tactics for the time being, and continued to break out in the direction of the strait.

The "Jihe" and "Guijiang" are behind. Even if the fire is not extinguished, it will not have much impact.

Besides, the enemy can guess that the 21st squadron will break out in the direction of the strait, so there is no problem of the whereabouts of the two warships being exposed due to the fire.

If the two ships can put out the fire and break through with the battleships in front, it would be better.

Even if it doesn't work, the captains of the two ships will make wise choices when necessary.

However, the situation is changing too quickly.

Less than five minutes later, the telegraph soldier ran over again and sent the telegram he had just received.

This time, it was a telegram sent by the "Jihe".

At the end of the telegram, there are the same eight words.

Long live the navy, the empire will last forever!

Immediately, the lookout sent a report that a fleet of several light cruisers or lightning destroyers was approaching rapidly from the southwest.

Because the light is dim and it is too far away, it is impossible to identify the specific model of the warship.

What is certain is that the speed of those warships exceeds thirty knots, and they rushed over with murderous intent, and they wanted to launch an attack with torpedoes.

He Yongxing did not give an order, and it was obvious that he would let the fleet continue to run wildly.

According to He Yongxing's previous order, except for the fired "Jihe" and "Guijiang", the other four battlecruisers did not fire at the approaching enemy ships.

The reason is very simple, muzzle flames will expose the warships.
