Chapter 928

"Turn around and fight back, fight hard."

Sean finally made up his mind, he was cornered.

He let those transport ships and non-main battleships continue to flee, and then all the main battleships turned around and tried their best. Those transport ships were not even qualified to turn around and try their best.

France began to divide its troops into two groups, and the capital ships equipped with cannons turned around one after another, preparing to fight the Chinese army.

Only those officers know about the huge gap in strength between the two sides.

Although the soldiers at the bottom also know that there is a gap in strength between the two sides, they don't have a clear concept of how big the gap is, and officers generally don't tell them.

If they were all as clear as Sean, I'm afraid there would have been many deserters by now.

"These people still have a bit of backbone."

Seeing the French warship turn around, Lin Wancheng said.

But he didn't say it, he continued: "But it's kind of silly, it saves us time."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Compared to fleeing, they actually prefer France to stop and fight, which is more convenient and quicker.

"Captain, some of them are still at large?"

Adjutant reminded.

"It should be their transport ship. Let Hongchang, Huangheng, and Huangyuan chase after it. The rest will aim at the enemy's main battleship and hit it hard."

Lin Wancheng said.

Cannons rang out.

This time it was French guns that fired.

Immediately, the gunfire from both sides continued, scaring away all the fish under the water in this sea area.

A large number of shells fell into the formations of both sides, but the effect was completely different.

A French shell hit a cruiser of Dahua, deforming the side of the ship and causing the ship to shake a little.

But that's all, no damage was done to the cruiser.

Another shell was a little luckier, and fell on the deck of the Chinese army, and exploded, killing several soldiers of the Chinese army.

However, these soldiers were also angered.

They aimed the main gun at the culprit, and successfully hit it on the third shot.

The shells penetrated directly through its hull and reached the place where the ammunition was piled up in the cabin.

With a loud bang, the battleship was directly blown into two halves, and at the same time, a fire broke out on board.

Of course, they don't need to fight the fire, because the ship will sink soon, and the sea will help them put out the fire.

The same is shot, the difference is so huge.

The legs of the French navy soldiers who saw this scene were trembling, and some of them peed their pants directly.

"Fire, keep firing, don't slack off."

The officers were still shouting, and most of the soldiers were indeed firing cannons non-stop.

But it's useless, their shells can't cause major losses to the Chinese army.

Dahua was stabbing them, but they were scraping and scratching Dahua.

Finally, some warships chose to escape.

Those who choose to escape are very smart, because they have a large number of warships. If they all escape, the Chinese army can only chase some of them, and there are still many who can escape.

However, after escaping, it is hard to say whether he can survive in this vast sea.

Only a few escaped, and most of the French navy were still resisting.

Among them, a warship with a displacement of more than 500 tons, the Frankfurt chose to ram into a cruiser of the Chinese army.

There was nothing they could do about it, their artillery was too small in caliber, and their power couldn't hurt the warships of the Chinese army at all.

So, they wanted to die together.

The captain of the Frankfurt, Dai Levy, was also a rogue, so he chose a good angle and rushed over while the Chinese warship was chasing and killing another French warship.

"For the sake of the great France, and for the glory of the soldiers of the empire, we must die together with our opponents."

Dai Levi is a very capable person, otherwise there would not be so many people willing to follow him to die.

Dai Levi's words aroused the blood of these soldiers.

Subsequently, the steam engine of the Frankfurt was turned on to the maximum horsepower, and the sails were also adjusted to the angle, so that the ship reached the maximum speed.

This steamship purchased from Dahua rushed towards Dahua's Hongxi.

After the officers and soldiers on the Hongxi found out, the distance between the two sides was less than a hundred meters.

This startled the officers and soldiers on the Hongxi, and quickly shouted to make the ship turn and the artillery turn.

However, this all takes time.

The distance of less than 100 meters is just a matter of a while for a steamship sprinting at full speed.

There was a loud bang of 'touch'.

The Frankfurt crashed into the Hongxi, and the Hongxi was shaken violently. Some soldiers who were holding on to things still let go of the impact and hit the ship.

If you are lucky, you will be injured a little bit, if you are unlucky, you will hit some corner, and you will be seriously injured or die.

Of course, very rarely, that is, for a moment.

As for the Frankfurt, the violent impact caused the bow of the ship to be shattered and damaged, and a large amount of sea water began to pour into the hull.

As for the soldiers on board, they were thrown in all directions.

Their ship is a warship converted from a merchant ship and lacks an anti-collision design. In the event of a collision, the people on board will be resigned to their fate, and there is not even a handy thing to grab.

Fortunately, the structures on their ship are

It's wood, even if it hits the head, most of the people are only slightly injured, and there are very few fatalities.

Dai Levi was protected by his subordinates, and nothing happened.

Although the person was not injured, his heart was very hurt at this time.

He saw that his side's life-threatening blow did not cause too much damage to the Hongxi of the Chinese army.

The imaginary death and net destruction did not happen at all.

Their fish is really about to die, but Dahua's net is fine.

"what......*****"

Dalevy was devastated.

He was like an assassin who had exhausted his brains and detoured a long way, and launched a fatal blow, only to find that the armor on the opposite side was not only too high for him to break through, but also had anti-injury effects.

On the Hongxi, some soldiers of the Chinese army still don't know what happened.

"What's going on, we seem to be attacked?"

A loader rubbed his forehead.

"I don't know, just let him go and continue to reload."

The gunner said that it was a fierce battle at this time, and there was no time to think about so many things. Their task was to shoot out the shells.

Then, they went on with their work.

If no one told them afterward, they probably wouldn't even know someone had killed them.

But at this time, the Chinese army on the upper deck of the Hong Xi reacted.

The near-defense guns with a sufficient angle aimed directly at those people and fired wildly, and some soldiers drew out their pistols to provide firepower.

"Stop, you can go to capture the prisoners."

After shooting for a while, the officer gave the order.

The enemy was first hit, and then shot, and even the strongest fighting spirit should be wiped out.
