"This...!" Kuznetsov's words left Vatutin speechless.

The Ming Dynasty is too powerful. As long as it does not want to become a pirate or surrender, the three Russian armored ships can only be sunk.

During the day today, we were able to avoid the Ming army's detection because we were familiar with the sea conditions. But tomorrow, we might not know what's going on.

The only thing that can cause the greatest damage to the coalition forces is to approach the Port of St. Petersburg at night. Before being sunk by the Ming army, try to inflict as much damage as possible to the coalition forces.

This is also the only thing the navy can do in this war.

It can be said that the Russian Navy's tragedy was doomed the moment the war began.

Under the cover of darkness, the three ironclad ships approached the Port of St. Petersburg at an extremely slow speed.

This is the home port of the fleet, and they are too familiar with it. Even in the darkness, they quietly laid mines.

After all the mines on the ship were laid, the three ironclad ships quietly waited until 4:30 in the morning as agreed in advance.

This is the time when people are most sleepy.

While all the soldiers on the Ming army's warships were sleeping, they might be able to fire two more cannons.

The artillerymen completely ignored the requirements of the drill and placed as many shells as possible in the turret.

The captain held the stopwatch in his hand, and when he saw that the time hand pointed to four-thirty, he immediately gave the order to fire.

In the hazy light that just appeared on the horizon, a few sparks suddenly appeared on the sea.

A long time after the sparks flashed, the dull sound of cannons was heard.

The gunners didn't care to check the impact point. Their mission today was to fire as many shells as possible in the shortest possible time.

Even if they were killed, they would never have imagined that one day they would bombard their home port like this.

It can be said that Kuznetsov was quite lucky. In the first salvo, a shell accidentally fell into the ammunition dump that had just been unloaded from the ship.

"Boom!" The entire port seemed to have been blown up to the sky, and even the sea surface trembled. The violent swells made the ships on the sea jolt.

When Li Xiu rushed into the war room with his clothes on, the war room had already woken up from the initial chaos.

The soldiers on the observation deck were already using binoculars to search for the location of the enemy ship. Soon, the coordinates of the enemy ship were transmitted.

Without Li Xiu's order, the gunnery officer had already reported the coordinates to the turret.

The entire Kunlun Mountain ship woke up all of a sudden like a huge machine.
Chapter completed!
