Inside the battle center, everyone could not help holding their breath, including the artillery commander.

The artillery commander was the third man on board the ship, under the captain and deputy captain, and the commander of all the weapons on the entire ship.

However, to launch an attack, it also requires the captain's order, the captain allows the attack or the fleet commander to issue an attack order, the artillery commander can officially launch the shelling.

Everyone was waiting for the captain’s orders.

On the bridge of cruiser 201, the captain’s eyes were on two Dutch Navy ships in the distance, waiting for the best angle of attack.

The distance between the two sides is about three nautical miles, and at this distance, the threat of two Dutch warships is not small for the two warships of the Red Guards.

Among them, the four 280 mm main guns on the coastal defense battleship can easily damage the cruiser and bring fatal damage to the destroyer.

The four two-hundred-millimeter main guns on the defensive cruiser also posed a great threat to the destroyers.

In order to be able to make the first attack as possible to make the other side lose combat power, the captain is waiting for the best angle of attack.

Tonight in the American Strait, the wind speed of the five, the gust reached the eight, the wave height of nearly one meter, even the ten thousand tons of cruisers, but also in the waves, which let the next attack, added a lot of variables.

After all, the gun does not have a modern hunting system, the angle of the gun is manually controlled, and it is fixed, and it is impossible to automatically lock the target.

At this moment, the warships of the two sides are already in a face-to-face state, and they are about to be staggered.

The captain of the cruiser, who was also the interim commander of the two warships, gave the order to attack in an instant.

In the short-range wireless communication, the attack command was also sounded.

The center of the war with the cruiser and destroyer also sounded the attack instructions of the artillery commander, and the artillery operator pressed the bombardment button for the first time.

The nine main guns of the No. 201 cruiser, roared at the same time, and the huge recidant force of the strait shot, allowing the warship to swing violently, and the dazzling fire spewed out of the mouth of the gun.

The destroyer, the six 175 mm main guns, also resounded through the clouds, and the fire spewed from the mouth of the gun shone with the undulating waves.

On the opposite Dutch warship, all the Dutch soldiers saw the fire at the mouth of the opposite ship and heard the roar of artillery fire, but they were too late to react.

At a distance of three nautical miles, the captains of the two Dutch warships had only time to shout out the enemy attack, and the shells had fallen.

No one thought that the "British" warships opposite would actually fire, and the enemy's artillery could not be seen in the night.

Even when the ship on the other side opened fire, the Dutch sailors still wondered why.

The shells fell violently, and at close range, the guise did not need a high elevation angle, almost direct fire.

Although under the undulating waves, the accuracy of the gun was greatly weakened, the dense fire of the salivum was enough to win.

The Dutch protective cruiser took the lead in the hit, two shells directly penetrated the sideboard armor of the protective cruiser, the cannonballs directly hit the penetration at close range, easily tearing the armor, and the violent explosion put the side of the guard cruiser, which exploded two wide openings of two meters wide and the influx of seawater.

At the same time, the fate of the front shore defense battleship was even more tragic, nine rounds of shells, directly hit three rounds, one blows the side of the armor, 254 mm shells lifted a large amount of armor, blown out a more than three meters of the opening.

Another shell hit the chimney of the coastal defense battleship, which exploded in the middle of the warship, causing the warship to burn up quickly.

The last shell hit the bridge, the huge power of the explosion, the bridge into debris, the bridge structure was blown off, a large amount of debris fell into the sea.

Many of the Dutch sailors who were caught off guard were engulfed by the explosion before they could react, and many Dutch soldiers standing on the deck were thrown into the sea by the impact of the explosion.

The surviving Dutch sailors, while extinguishing the flames of the explosion, trying to plug the gap on the water line, and the Dutch sailors quickly opened the shelling.

Rescue, fight back, two Dutch warships on the chaos, the most terrible is that the open gap was being opened, is in the water.

The first attack had a decisive effect, and the Red Guard sailors on the cruisers and destroyers were quickly loaded with new shells.

The green signal light that could be shelled was lit, and the command of the artillery commander was again heard in the center of the battle of the two warships, and the operator pressed the button of the design.

This attack, re-corrected the ballistics and angles, another round of salvage.

The fire of death roared from the barrel, and the two Dutch warships not far away were once again enveloped in the shelling.

In the two double 280 mm main guns of the coastal defense battleship, the nervous Dutch sailors did not send the shells into the cannon chamber, and the shells fell again.

Good luck ended, just at this time the sea calmed a little, the gusts did not appear, the second round of salvo hit a lot higher, nine rounds of shells, there were six direct hit the already burning shore defense battleship.

The main gun of 254 mm, although the lethality is not as high as the 355 mm main gun of the battleship, for a shore defense battleship with only 5,000 tons, hit six rounds of artillery shells in one go, plus the previous three shells, even if it is God's care, no one can save its destruction.

Six rounds of shells hit at the same time, using no less than the modern high-end explosives of the shell, the fierce explosion so that the shore defense battleship like a small spear plate was mutilated.

The huge explosive power, so that the entire warship instantly disintegrated in the sea, the moment of explosion, the ship's head was completely blown out, and then the ship's body was raised in the explosion, the whole in the explosion of the fire, into debris.

The protective cruiser behind it was no better, and five rounds of 175-millimeter shells ignited the entire warship, and the 3,800-ton protective cruiser was turned into a fiery coffin floating at sea.

Although the main structure of the warship is still there, the hull has been riddled with holes, and the fire that has sprouted it with surging sea water, and the protective cruiser has sunk into the sea at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Complete the entire attack of the two warships, adjust the direction, towards the landing of the two Dutch warships.

Only a few dozen Dutch sailors survived on the surface of the sea, and when they saw the two ships coming, they all looked confused.

The lights on the warship shine on the sea, and the survivors who swim on the sea will become prisoners.

When the ship was caught, all the Dutch sailors could see the strange flag flying on the warship, and the enemy of the yellow race in the warship.
