C2747 There was no such thing as afternoon in this life!

History is out of its original orbit! In the original trajectory, the symbol of the Age of Giant Cannons was the British Fearless Battleship. It was the appearance of the Fearless Battleship that unified the global warship design community's overall train of thought.

large caliber, Heavy Armor, Super Tonnage, Streamline Ship... The symbol of the Iron-armored battleship era, which countless fans were obsessed with, had actually started from the Fearless Ship era.

The Military experts of the later generations also used the Fearless Ship to carry out the era division. Before the Fearless Ship appeared, the Hundred Ghost Nightwatching Time was known as the Fearless Ship era, and correspondingly, it was after the Fearless Ship era!

This kind of unified design thought was quite mature, and it lasted until the birth of the carrier of the second world war, then changed the natural pattern of naval vessels.

The Hundred Ghost Night Walking era was the Dreadnought era, and the opening of the Dreadnought era was also inseparable from China.

Or it could be said that it was inseparable from a battle in the sea. It was a battle in the sea at noon!

As we all know, the Armored War broke out in 1894, and the world's first Dauntless ship was launched in Britain in 1906.

Is there any connection? Actually, the connection between them was quite important. It was because of the experience from the mid-afternoon sea battle that the British came out of their daze and officially confirmed the design style of the Fearless Ship.

The overall design of the Fearless Ship was actually very simple. It was just like the design of the entire heavy artillery battleship; it was basically the same as the design of the Zhiyuan Warship!

However, Zhiyuan Warship could only do under 3000 tons of technology due to its current technological level. It believed that a long distance battleship that could improve by more than 10,000 tons through science and technology was not a dream!

The emergence of this type of heavy artillery battleship officially triggered the proliferation of 'large-ship cannonism' ideas, and thus the global naval arms race began!

Why does the Arena War affect British ship designers? In fact, the source of the problem was still the two Iron-armored battleship, Dingyuan and Zhenyuan.

As we all know, at that time, in the mid-afternoon naval battle, the Japanese navy, in order to fight against the two strongest battleships in Asia, Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, started to go all out on the evil path of rapid-fire doctrine!

Because at that time, Japan's finances had already been depleted, they simply could not afford to buy top class battleships like Dingyuan and Zhenyuan!

The armor of Dingyuan and Zhuan Yuan was 355 mm thick, which would be a terrifying 14 inch armor!

The thickness of the armor was four times that of the Zhiyuan Warship!

A 35 centimeter thick armor, how powerful would a cannonball have to be to penetrate it? It turned out that none of the Japanese battleships could bite off such a metal maniac.

A 35 centimeter thick armor was the width of two strands of a grown man's palm. It was as thick as a wall!

In the sea battle, although the North Ocean fleet had suffered heavy losses, the two great ships, Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, had become the needle of the sea. Of these, Dingyuan had been hit 159 times, and only 17 people died and 38 people were injured!

Zhen Yuan had been hit 220 times. Only 13 people died and 28 people were injured!

Such a huge steel beast had gnawed on the front teeth of the Japanese fleet until it shattered! The flagship Songdao ship had suffered a heavy blow and had lost all ability to fight!

It was only then that the Japanese navy had to admit that Dingyuan and Zhenyuan were really not heavy ships!

Actually, the defeat of the Great Eastern Sea War did not mean the complete defeat of the Northern Ocean Water Master. The deadliest thing should be the defeat of the morale of the troops!

If they had fought together as a common enemy in Beiyang, and with Dingyuan and Zhenyuan as the core, they might have had a chance to draw a draw!

In the vast ocean, cannons that could penetrate the armors of these two giant warships simply did not exist. However, the cannons of these two giant warships could tear apart the fragile armor of all Japanese warships!

Don't even mention the Mitsui ship, even though the 305-caliber cannon on its surface looked very powerful, in the end it was still unable to pierce through the armor of the huge ship.

And the Mitsui class starship was completely pulled by a small wagon. The structural strength of the warship resisting the recoil of the 305-caliber cannon was simply masochistic. To put it bluntly, just the recoil alone would be enough to shatter it!

They were willing to part with their lives, and they dared to drag the emperor down! If he were to put his life on the line, his family background in Japan would not be enough!

Unfortunately, these two giant warships didn't die on the sea, but were trapped in the port for political reasons. In the end, one surrendered, while the other sunk to the bottom of the sea in despair!

The Sea War is the first great sea battle of the steam Iron-armored Ship, which plays an indelible role in the development history of the world's navy.

One must know that at that time, the international sea Military s were also notorious for their heresy, and the most typical ones were the 'Iron-armored Ship useless theory' and the 'Green Water School'. Some people also called them the 'Navy Youth Guild'.

These two heretics, which do not support the Big Cannon doctrine, have all sorts of reasons to persuade the government to give up this shipbuilding idea.

Back then, they had indeed affected the leaders of many countries!

But when the guns were fired in the afternoon, the outstanding performance of the two battleships, Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, made the British realize that they had accelerated the Dauntless ship's construction plan and soon determined the future direction of the naval development of the Cannon Colossus.

The British Navy had absorbed the light spots of both sides and had borrowed the advantage of rapid fire cannons and side gunfire concentration from Japan!

From the Northern Ocean Water Master, he had absorbed the thick armor as well as the design characteristics of the large caliber naval gun!

With the combination of the strengths of both sides, the era of the Fearless Class battleship had come to an end, ending the chaotic era of the night walk of the Hundred Ghosts!

This was the history of naval development that Xiao Letian remembered from his previous life. However, in this world, the course of history had been reversed, and there were no longer afternoon wars as a model for the global Sea Military.

It is today's East Frisian Sea War that has changed the global naval landscape!

The Zhiyuan Warship rode thousands of horses, single-handedly battling the entire France's Navy, this battle would definitely shake the entire world!

French Fleet's 140-150 caliber cannons were desperately firing at the Zhiyuan Warship, the cannons shooting out like hail towards the small but fully armored Eastern Knight!

Every single time they fired, a sea of fire would once again swirl around the riders' bodies and blacken all of their shining armor. It looked as if they were beating up Zhiyuan Warship s!

However, the French soldiers in the middle were already in a miserable state. They were on the verge of tears from the fight!

Up till now, not a single piece of the Zhiyuan Warship's armor had been penetrated. Although the numerous accessories on the deck were all destroyed, the structure of this battleship was actually not damaged at all!

Huo Fu had already gone mad. There was no longer any arrogance in his eyes, only deep fear!

"My God! This is a ghost ship! This is a ghost ship! "

"There's no other way, there's no other way!" Banshee … Hurry forward! "

"Bang!" "Hit him and sink him!"
