"President, the Japanese asked us in flag-language and asked us what army we were and why we came, and they sent an inquiry from the police."
A naval officer came to report.President Meng was in the command room of the flagship, and smiled faintly: "Tell them that we are the British Royal Navy coming from Hainan, let them dodge, we have to dock to replenish water and food, and don't blame us for burning coal if you don't get out of the way" "It's the president." ”The officer went down.Instructor Albert Kirchbach the Great and Instructor Albert Kirchbach Jr. nodded almost at the same time, doing this, the Japanese don't know what to do, if they want to pretend, they have to pretend to be like that, in or still, the army of the British Empire is hanging like this."
President, this statement is really good, so that the Japanese will not doubt it."
Albert Kirschbach Jr. complimented him heartily."
Whether they doubt it or not, in fact, we don't need to use this method, our military strength is much stronger than theirs, but the war is also tricky, it is better to save some things."
President Meng smiled calmly.Princess Katrina Kafu looked at the Japanese fleet, "They look okay, but it's really bold for such a fleet to dare to hit Taiwan." ”"In order to ensure that our land is not violated, in order to ensure that our nation can rise in the forest of the world, we will see the real chapter of this war.What kind of country the Japanese are, you will know later, this is a country of robbers, and if you don't kill them, you will never have peace. ”President Meng held a telescope and watched the movements of the Japanese intently, he was not worried about whether he would fight the Japanese, but worried that the Japanese would escape, and if he fled, it would not be easy to do.President Moe's hatred for the Japanese has gone deep into the bone marrow.But the Chinese of this era certainly do not have such a deep understanding of President Moe, even if a small number of fishermen have suffered from the Japanese, it is difficult for all Chinese people to hate the Japanese.This is a problem that President Moe needs to solve.If it is left in modern times and fights the Japanese, where is the need to mobilize Saigo Congdao got a report, sweating profusely, "I'm afraid it's coming at us, the most afraid is the number of British warships in the camouflage of the Chinese army, and the number of navies of the Chinese army that we have mastered, which is very consistent" Saigo Congdao is smart, what he said is not wrong, and all the officers nodded one after another, and they all agreed with Saigo Congdao's opinion."
Pass my orders, be ready for war at any time, and keep all warships at full speed," Saigo ordered loudly.The state of full speed is a state, not to say that it starts to drive quickly now, but to burn the steam engine vigorously, ready to work at any time "Hi" Japanese officers are busy, flag-waving slogans, blowing horns, all sailors, also urgently began to arrange artillery, ready to shoot.When the Japanese saw the fleet coming from the opposite side, all of them flying the British flag, they could not immediately be filled with hatred.The Japanese are a brutal, outwardly strong and capable team of dogs.They especially worship the strong, in their eyes, the British, the French, the Americans, these powers, that is, the strong, go to eat the of the British, the French, the Americans, they will also feel that they are eating cake.The prestige of the Americans in China is not very good, but the prestige in Japan is very high, because it was the Americans who used black ships to pry open the door of Japan and accelerate the colonization of Japan.In the eyes of the Japanese, the British are the fathers of the Americans, so the Japanese have more respect for the British.Now President Moe's warships are all flying the British flag, which makes the Japanese want to mention the spirit, but they can't mention it, war, to a large extent, is determined by the human spirit, the Japanese, will only bully those they feel weak.The Chinese, on the contrary, often meet the strong and strong, especially the Chinese army, in the powerful army, do not pay attention, this is because President Meng adopts the construction system of the Prussian army.Hum President Meng snorted in his heart, Lao Tzu has thirty-three warships, fight you eight, I don't care if you have a plan "Speed up, lean on, and wait for the flagship to fire, fire with all your might, keep the goose-shaped formation for me to hear clearly, not a single Japanese ship is allowed to escape" "Yes, President" Xuan Da Niu catered to him, and hurriedly went down to issue President Meng's order.Princess Katrina Kaeff saw the huge army on her side approaching the enemy, and knew that the battle was about to start, so she quietly held the hand of President Moe, very nervous.This is a form of bullying that prevents enemy warships from escaping when force is sufficient.If the strength of the two armies is equal, most of them will adopt a vertical formation.Saigo Congmichi was on the ironclad ship "Longxiang", the flagship of the Japanese Combined Fleet, nervously watching this huge fleet approaching, "Ready, this must be the fleet of the Chinese army, otherwise it will not use the battle formation" The officers immediately went down to convey Saigo's words, and the Japanese artillery had begun to adjust."
Yunyang" is a wooden-hulled steam engine ship, which was purchased from Britain by the Choshu Domain in 1870 and dedicated to the Meiji central government the following year, with a speed of 10 knots, a displacement of only 249 tons, a 160 main gun at the bow and 140 guns at the stern.The "Ryusho" was the ace warship of the Combined Fleet and one of only two ironclad ships in Japan.Another ironclad ship, the "Jiatie", was a product of the American Civil War, which was obsolete and backward, and its combat effectiveness could not be compared with that of the "Longxiang".President Moe's flagship, with a downwind speed of 18 knots and a three-section telescopic chimney, can dodge enemy shell attacks during naval battles, which is a technological innovation.In this era, it was already the world's leading medium-sized cruiser, and the British repeatedly asked President Meng to return it, but President Meng ignored it until Britain joined the South Sea Treaty member organization, and President Meng used the price of compensation of 10 million taels of Chinese official silver to settle the British demand for the return of the captured warship and the return of Hong Kong.President Meng's flagship is two 220 main guns, and more than 40 secondary guns are 75, and the firepower is very strong.And the flagship of the Japanese is only a 105 main gun, or a single main gun, and the secondary gun is only 55, more than a dozen.Seeing that it had already entered the firing range, President Meng ordered loudly.Princess Katrina Kaaf is full of blood, this is the first time Princess Katrina Kave has seen a naval battle, and it is also the real sense of President Moe, the first time she has seen a sea battle, the last time she fought with the Japanese pirate group in the Korean waters, it can't be counted at all, because they are all wooden ships, no matter how many they are, this time, it is a real modern warship against a modern warship.There was a loud bang.The flagship of the Chinese army, with its two front main guns fired at the same time, fired very accurately, and the main battery of the ironclad ship "Ryuchamp," the flagship of the Japanese Combined Fleet, was blown up with one shot, and more than 10 Japanese gunners died on the battery in the billowing smoke.President Meng sweats, what level is this, the intensity of naval training of the Chinese army is very high, and the quality is also very high, and the officers who fired the guns just now are all officers of the German Navy, I have to say, pure foreigners, the fight is still fierce.President Meng's Chinese army, most of the navy are Huacui Party members, but the main positions, including the main gunner, are still foreign instructors, President Meng did not engage in the development of the development of the seedlings in the army construction, his every step, follow the principles of the German army's army building, very rigorous, not that ability, can not be on the post In addition to the deputy commander of the navy Xuan Daniu, every Chinese army Huacui Party officer on the post, must have that ability."
Big bull, learn more, be modest, be serious, if you can't do it, this deputy commander of the navy is someone else's."
President Meng said lightly.Xuan Da Niu hurriedly gave a military salute, "Yes, President" Xuan Da Niu is only the first deputy commander of the navy, there are a total of four deputy commanders, as well as the trainee captains of each warship, they are also all Hua Cui Party officers, the competition is very fierce, this is not because of President Meng's cronies, you can stand in the position, in fact, every Hua Cui Party officer is very loyal to President Meng.Saigo saw that the main battery was blown up from the road, and shouted: "Fire quickly, fire ah" t1706231537:
