It had just passed 6 AM.
Those four Newland battleships had surprisingly fired first, and at a distance of over twenty kilometers!
The lookout had spotted the muzzle flash from the Newland battleships' main guns, and radar had measured the distance as over twenty kilometers.
Clearly, in the ten or so minutes before firing, the four Newland battleships had definitely altered their course to the east, increasing the distance.
As the alarm sounded, the captain issued battle orders.
Subsequently, shrapnel-proof armor fell into place in the command bridge, and the Imperial Guard soldiers closed the 500-millimeter-thick hatch.
Longxing surged forward first, accelerating and turning, followed by the three other battleships also beginning to turn.
Truth be told, it didn't make much difference.
The enemy was just probabilistically firing, not aiming at the battleships, and they couldn't aim.
