Chapter 1120 Collapse
"Boom boom boom..."
On the sea covered with blood and fire, the warships were chasing each other.
The remaining coalition warships fled in all directions like birds and beasts.
The ironclad ships bit the fleeing warships tightly, and the rotating turrets and the side guns roared from time to time, sinking the warships that caught up.
Faced with the terrifying ironclad ships, the coalition navy completely lost their fighting spirit.
Now, the only thing they wanted was to survive.
Because they knew that no matter what tactics they used, their weak sailing warships could not defeat the new warships of Dasong.
"Let Gong Ying block the entrance to the inland river immediately. This bastard is so happy to kill that he even forgot what to do." The rotating turret of the Jinling smashed a sailing warship in front of it, and Zhou Yi noticed that a Western warship had escaped into the inland river.
At this time, Gong Ying was also in the direction of the inland river entrance, but this kid seemed to be just chasing the Western warships.
Song Xiang blushed when he heard this.
After the battle situation completely turned to the Dasong Navy, he was also overwhelmed with emotions. He only thought about killing the enemy and did not notice the inland river entrance.
With an awkward smile, he immediately ordered the soldiers to convey the order.
Each Dasong warship would have a lookout dedicated to watching the Jinling and get orders in time.
Seeing the flag change on the Jinling, the lookout on the watchtower immediately passed down the order.
Gong Ying, who was immersed in the pleasure of hunting, quickly learned the order.
His mind was instantly clear, Gong Ying patted his head, and immediately ordered the ironclad to mobilize and lead four sailing warships to the inland river entrance of Kolkata.
After destroying the coalition warships in the port, he moved from the sailing warship to the ironclad.
Zhou Yi was responsible for the main fleet in the east.
He was responsible for the coalition support fleet coming from the west.
After the main coalition fleet was defeated, the supporting coalition fleets in the west and south also collapsed rapidly.
This made him, who was so angry that he was bloodthirsty, in a frenzy for a while.
"You almost took advantage of me." The inland river entrance of Calcutta is on the west side of the port.
At this moment, more than ten warships have already hidden in the inland river.
Seeing more warships rushing towards the inland river entrance, he ordered the ironclad ship to run at full speed, and soon it was across the outside of the inland river entrance.
Seeing this, the coalition warships that rushed over had to go to the open sea.
And in this round and round, these coalition warships seemed to have missed the best opportunity to escape and were sunk one by one by the Dasong warships.
"Governor, Governor..."
When the Dasong warships chased south and north and killed the coalition warships, Bolt in the port suddenly softened, felt dizzy, and fainted.
Many British officers and officials immediately rushed up, and someone shook Bolt violently.
After a while, Bolt gradually woke up and then burst into tears.
From the initial confidence of victory to the current despair, his heart was bleeding as he saw the coalition warships being destroyed one after another.
In the end, he could not bear the huge impact of failure and fainted.
For every British, the British fleet is invincible in the world, which is a consensus since birth.
Britain is the center of the West, and the West is the center of the world.
Now, the coalition fleet with the British fleet as the core has suffered an unprecedented defeat in what they think is a barbarian land.
Nearly 500 warships, from the beginning of the naval battle to the present, being chased by the Dasong fleet, there are less than 150 coalition warships on the sea.
This number will continue to decrease in the future.
In a naval battle, such a number of warships sank, this matter will be recorded as a shame in the pages of history.
And Malfoy, including him, Bolt, will be recorded because of this naval battle, leaving a permanent infamy.
However, these are just things in the future.
In fact, what he couldn't accept the most was that this battle would mean the fall of Britain's maritime hegemony.
From now on, Britain would no longer be able to knock on the door of a country in the East with its strong ships and powerful guns.
Even Dasong, with its strong ships and powerful guns, would even knock on the door of the West.
This feeling of falling from the top made him feel suffocated.
But this is a cruel reality.
After witnessing the entire process of the naval battle, he gradually came to his senses.
The core of the Dasong fleet this time was the twelve new warships with strange shapes.
The current pursuit was also led by these warships.
No matter how their warships bombarded these warships, they could not cause fatal damage to them.
And the sailing speed was even faster than their steamships.
In front of these warships, his sailing warships were as slow as a snail.
"It's terrible!" Bolt was soaked in cold sweat.
Twelve such warships defeated their coalition fleet.
If Dasong produces more such warships in the future.
Then will Britain still be able to sail freely on the sea in the future?
The great Britain relied on its maritime hegemony to have colonies in every part of the world and build the empire on which the sun never sets.
Without maritime hegemony, they are like losing their legs and becoming a lame empire.
"Governor, Admiral Malfoy's life or death is unknown. We need to immediately inform Admiral Harriman of the defeat in the naval battle." Bolt is only the Governor of India.
This time the coalition was actually led by Malfoy and Harriman.
The sudden and huge change made both British officials and officers in Tianzhu feel that an unprecedented crisis was coming.
They needed Harriman to tell them what to do next.
"No! This news must not be leaked! Harriman is fighting with the Dasong Army. If the news of the naval defeat is passed on, it will greatly affect the morale of the coalition soldiers." Bolt shouted.
Many officers have completely lost their confidence in resistance after seeing the sharpness of the Dasong Navy.
Especially the officers of other Western countries.
Hearing this, someone shouted, "Governor Bolt, do you still want to continue to resist foolishly? Look at the corpses floating on the sea, do you still want the corpses of the army soldiers to cover the battlefield?"
"Yes, this is really a stupid war. We are not facing a weak indigenous army, but an army that is stronger than us. It is crazy to fight such an army thousands of miles away." Someone else shouted.
"Stop pretending to be confused. We have lost the ocean, and there will be no more warships coming from the mainland to support us. That would be like sending ourselves to death. Once the Dasong Navy blocks the Indian waters, India will become an isolated island. Although Tusman is our ally, how much does it cost to transport supplies from land? Don't you know?"
"..."
Many officers spoke one after another, and no one was intimidated by Governor Bolt's identity and yielded to him.
Now, they just want to go back alive, so they would rather go to the military court than die in this hellhole.
