Bai Henqiu ordered to use "run and bomb" to blow up the five gunboats at the end of the fleet.
The five gunboats knew something was wrong and were turning to escape, but they were too late and were hit by armor-piercing shells from thirty "flat Japanese cannons".
Each gunboat was hit by six.
"Boom boom boom" Five gunboats suffered violent explosions.
The Japanese on board were either killed or injured, and the gunboats sank.
The fleet commander took one look and knew that these missions were a complete failure.
Because this mission was to escort the troop ship to land, and now that all 15,000 soldiers had been wiped out, there was no point in persisting.
Now, the only option is to retreat.
He shouted: "Turn around, turn around, turn in, turn in" The chief of staff hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, Major General, this is not possible.
The river behind is blocked by sunken ships and turned into rocks.
If we force our way through, we will hit the rocks."
The commander was stunned: "So, we can only move forward.
No, the opponent must have an ambush in front, and maybe there are torpedoes."
At this time, armor-piercing bullets were fired again, and Bai Henqiu had ordered all the armor-piercing bullets to be fired.
There are more than a hundred armor-piercing bullets left, which are given away for free.
"Boom boom boom" Fifteen warships shook violently, and one of them began to tilt.
It was estimated that it was hit in the vital points multiple times and began to sink.
At this time, there was no one on the deck of the battleship.
There is no other way.
Each battleship is strafed by two heavy machine guns and bombarded by armor-piercing shells.
Who can bear it?
The fleet commander had no choice but to order: "Push forward and rush through Ruichang at the fastest speed.
If you rush over, you will win."
The chief of staff's face turned pale: "Where are those guys from the Air Force?"
A lieutenant commander said: "They ran out of ammunition and flew back to replenish their ammunition."
The fleet commander roared: "Contact General Okamura quickly and send fighter planes to escort us.
Otherwise, we will all be destroyed."
The communications officer immediately sent a telegram.
Soon, they received a report that Okamura Nei asked them to hold on for ten minutes.
Ten minutes later, a hundred fighters arrived.
Unfortunately, four minutes later, they were attacked again by torpedoes and Japanese cannons, and three battleships were sunk.
The most terrifying thing was of course the torpedo, which hit below the waterline and caused a lot of flooding.
In addition, five ships were seriously injured.
The fleet commander gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
Another four minutes later, it was hit hard for the third time, naturally by torpedoes and Japanese cannons.
This time, a total of six ships were sunk.
The remaining five were severely damaged and unable to move.
The fleet commander became desperate and ordered the ship to be blown up.
He wanted to perish together with the battleship.
Of course, the main purpose is to prevent the warships from falling into the hands of the Chinese.
As a result, two battleships self-destructed, and the commander, chief of staff and other senior officials were killed, but the other three surrendered and raised the white flag.
At this time, a hundred Zeros flew in and found that the three warships actually raised white flags.
They were furious and immediately asked Okamura Neiji for instructions.
Okamura Neiji was extremely surprised and angry, and ordered the three battleships to be blown up.
As a result, one hundred Zeros bombed the three warships in turn, dropping a total of two hundred bombs and sinking them.

However, the scene of the battleship raising the white flag and being bombed by our own people was photographed and recorded by international reporters such as Yue Xuanying, Shirley, and April 1st, and it will become the headline of evening newspapers around the world.
This was news that shocked the whole world.
It was unthinkable for the Japanese navy to surrender.
It would never have done so unless it was beaten to despair.
Of course, there is one person who is very sorry, that is Bai Henqiu.
He also wanted to capture the Japanese warships, but they were all destroyed.
When Neji Okamura received the battle report, he surprisingly didn't get angry.
He really didn't have the energy to get angry because he was coughing more and more.
Shunroku Hata was roaring crazily: "Why did the Navy and the Air Force fail when they joined forces?
Why?"
Abe Masatomo said angrily: "The headshot ghost king is really a ghost.
He first used false positions to lure our navy and air force into wasting a lot of ammunition and energy, and then made a sudden attack.
I heard from the pilot of the reconnaissance plane that they had torpedoes.
However, the torpedoes Wasn't it from a submarine?
Where did they get the submarine?"
Okamura Neiji coughed a few times: "There used to be information that Yue Feng developed a torpedo for use near the coast, but no one believed it.
Now, I have to believe it.
Submarines can use torpedoes, and of course they can be used near the coast."
Abe Masatomo said depressedly: "And their flat-firing sniper guns are better than ours in terms of range and armor-piercing power.
Legend has it that this is also the handiwork of Yue Feng.
Could this Yue Feng be sent by God?
Are you punishing us?"
A staff officer said: "It is rumored that he is the Ghost King and needs three million ghost slaves in the empire.
Of course, this is just a rumor and false."
Shunroku Hata asked: "Okamura-kun, how will the sneak attack and waterway fail in the following battles?
Although the air force has no losses, it has not made any achievements."
Abe Masatomo said loudly: "On the frontal battlefield, except for the loss of the field artillery battalion and fifteen tanks, there were no other losses.
I think that we should adopt a feint attack on eight sides and a small breakthrough to attack the Xiongqi Regiment.
As long as this breakthrough is made, we can It was successful.”
Neji Okamura observed the sand table: "There are nine positions in the hilly defense line.
Positions 1 to 9, which point is the strong attack?"
Masatomo Abe pointed at position No. 9 with one hand: "Position No. 9 is at the outermost position.
Attack it and other positions cannot support it.
We will avoid the danger of being flanked by left and right, and the chance of success will be greatly increased."
Shunroku Hata shook his head: "According to the intelligence, Position 9 is defended by a death camp.
The commander is Cheng Junde, an old man from the Xiongqi Regiment.
This man first followed Yue Feng and learned a lot of skills.
He is good at defense and especially has a strong will. , difficult to deal with.”
Abe Masatomo said seriously: "I think that no battalion of the Xiongqi Regiment is difficult to deal with, but this battalion is on the outermost side and is most suitable for a violent attack, because during the attack, we are least threatened."
Okamura Neiji pondered for a moment: "There is flat ground in front of Position 9, which is suitable for tank charges.
But I am also sure that there must be anti-tank trenches.
According to Yue Feng's cunning, it is estimated that there is more than one anti-tank trench, probably two. " Abe Masatomo said confidently: "Although we have no field guns, we still have 60 mountain guns and a large number of mortars.
During the attack, violent bombardment will definitely blow out the anti-tank trenches."
Shunroku Hata asked: "How to fill in the anti-tank trenches?"
Abe Masatomo said loudly: "We don't need to fill it all, only part of it.

Use military vehicles to transport sandbags and pour them directly on the anti-tank trenches.
We can quickly fill in a few roads for tanks to pass by."
Shunroku Hata asked again: "They have horizontal-firing sniper guns, which are a fatal threat to our tanks.
What should we do?"
"When attacking, tanks are most vulnerable to attack from the front.
We learn from Juichi Namada's method and weld a thick steel plate in front of the tank so that their armor-piercing bullets cannot penetrate it."
Masatomo Abe sneered, "In addition, we are powerful The air force will win."
Okamura Neiji said flatly: "If you continue to break, you will suffer.
Just like this, kill the No. 9 position, break through a little, and then attack in an all-out way.
In this battle, use all your troops."
A staff officer reminded: "General, if this is the case, Jiujiang's troops will be empty.
What will happen if Zhang Fakui's troops attack by surprise?"
Okamura Neiji sneered: "He is not Yue Feng, he doesn't have the courage."
