Bearing in mind September 17, 1894
The ships of the two countries were not the goal of the battle to come to the history of the trench-dong da Gou. The main equipment of the Qing Dynasty Navy was the ironclads, which was about to be outdated or obsolete, equipped with solid shells and a small number of flowering shells, and the explosive charge was black powder with very low initiation rate and burning rate. The Japanese Navy is equipped with a flexible light armor, and the shells and shotguns are the main species, It is loaded with a horrible tri-nitrophenol (explosion can produce thousands degrees high temperature and toxic gas). Although from the equipment level, the Qing dynasty than Japan is not a horizontal line, but the Qing Dynasty sailors mostly after a long training of soldiers, and the Japanese sailors are all just military-trained merchant seamen, so the Qing dynasty firepower than Japan's.
It must be noted that the Qing Navy began to choose the combat formation is the 19th century classic "chaos" formation. At that time, most of the naval communication by Semaphore, Radio has not appeared, so once the war, the semaphore will not be able to rely on each battleship to disrupt enemy warships. However, before entering the combat position, there are two ship funk, two ship because the boiler aging and low quality coal did not enter the position in time, the Qing Navy therefore lost four warships combat effectiveness.
When the battle began, the fire of the Qing warship is fierce, but the power of the game is not enough, the Northern Fleet only seriously wounded Japanese warships and their own loss of five ships, seriously wounded a ship. This ending is not known to the Qing party in the court, but Li knows, so he chose to use the remaining warships to deter the Chinese, and they chose to impeach Li. The September 17, 1894 naval warfare result is Japan to obtain the Yellow Sea Sea power, the Qing court not only lost more than 600 blood patriotic soldiers, but also had to retreat to their own front door.
