Chapter 209 I'm worried about the UK
"Prepare!"
"Left full rudder."
Xiao Tianzhi roared, and the fleet of the galloping ship of the Sky Survey suddenly tilted, drawing a huge arc thousands of meters away from the entrance of the Puga Waterway.
At the same time, the cannons on the side of the ship also roared one after another. The red flame of the muzzle had not dissipated, and fireballs exploded on both sides of the dark entrance in the distance.
In the dark, the red flame was particularly eye-catching. At the same time, it also exposed the position of the Sky Survey. The Japanese army's coastal defense guns also opened fire one after another, and more flames exploded in the dark night.
Between countless columns of water, the Sky Survey was like a light swift, and soon left the range of the coastal defense gun and returned to the formation. And just after it came back, the patrol sea also shot out like a sharp sword, leaving the formation and shooting at the mouth of Uraga Waterway.
"What are they doing?" Sa Zhenbing stood on the Flying Bridge Mountain of the Polaris, staring at the repeated impact of the four light patrols in the fleet, turning the rudder and then using the impact. He couldn't understand what the Pacific Fleet was doing? If you want to be a few times fierce, why did the battleships and two heavy patrols under their feet stop after opening fire twice and watch the hustle and bustle from afar?
Is it possible that their shells have not been replenished after the last war?
Sa Zhenbing shook his head. This mistake would not happen at all in the Pacific Fleet on standby. After the war, it took them only ten days to replace the barrel and spare parts of all the main guns, which has shown that they are not inferior to the combat readiness of any country.
So they did this?
"They are deliberately testing the fire prevention force on the shore. You see, every time they attack, they will approach inward, and the landing point of each shelling is different." Next to him, Liu Bu toad walked in front of everyone and pointed to a few flames bursting in the dark and said, "These cannons are too far from the Japanese fort that just opened fire. Obviously, they were intentional."
Liu Bu toad's words immediately made several Beiyang generals, who were distracted by this strange tactic, refocus their eyes on the artillery shelling. Sure enough, four light patrols and two destroyers were in different positions for each shelling, which was obviously deliberately inducing the Japanese army to fire.
"Although I don't know why they came to the Uraga Waterway, judging from this method of seducing the enemy to fire, I'm afraid that the Pacific Fleet is already preparing for the first battle after the return of the new ship of the Japanese navy!" Liu Bu toad patted the railing hard and sighed, "It's ridiculous that I thought I copied Britain and wrote the "Western Soldier Ship Battery Strategy" with Kaishi, which already included the strategies of various countries, but now when I look at them, I know that I am the noisy frog at the bottom of the well."
His words made the Beiyang generals around him sigh. Since going to sea, the Pacific Fleet has given them too many novelty. The means of seducing the enemy at this moment and the meaning behind this means make them feel a deep throbbing.
This is a fleet that has just defeated Russia and is full of toughness and glory, but when everyone thinks they should celebrate and reward, they have quietly embarked on the journey again and began to start the next enemy!
"The place where the ship goes is the sea territory that needs to be guarded."
"My dream is to lead the battleship and fight with every naval power!"
"Whether you win or lose!"
In Liu Bu toad's ear, the heroic words of Captain Ning Xiaochuan of the Flying Fish sounded again. At this moment, after listening to it again, I found that it was not just him, but the whole Pacific Fleet had already held this mentality!
"Zixiang, I still don't understand one thing. They joined the army later than us, and most of them failed to stay abroad. Who did they learn these things from? I'm afraid Chen Ping is not so capable of being alone, right? Ye Zujiu shook his head and couldn't figure out who could bring out such a sailor.
"It's not Chen Ping, nor is it Long Guozhang!" Lin Tai withdrew his eyes from the constantly rising fire and turned to his partner standing beside him: "It's him, Master Li."
"Master Li? "Li Mo!" Sa Zhenbing shook his head quickly and didn't believe it. "It's impossible. He is just the son of the leader of the Green Camp in Jinzhou. I heard that he hasn't studied abroad for many years. How can he know how to form an army?"
"Ding Ming is wrong." Liu Bu toad took over the words and continued: "Brother Kaishi and I have personally asked Long Guozhang and Chen Ping. According to them, from the formation of the navy to what kind of warship to choose to buy, to the new method of the practice of the exercise, it was all handled by Master Li. Even they did not understand why he could know so many new tactics and new actors. Duan."
"It is said that there is more than that. Master Li also personally told Chen Ping and Long Guozhang about the development of the future sailors. Although they didn't tell me and Zixiang, I'm afraid it's something amazing to look at their faces and eyes!"
Sa Zhenbing also seemed to be a little unbelieving. Just as he wanted to ask again, Xie Baozhang, who had been silently looking at the distance, suddenly turned his head and smiled: "I said you should change your words. There are no sailors here."
Xie Baozhang straightened up and pointed to a destroyer that had just come back from seducing the enemy: "They have made up their mind to cross the Pacific from the beginning. It's the navy! Not a sailor"
The passionate words shocked several partners one after another, carefully chewing the difference between the sailors and the naval fleet, but did not find that the rumble of cannons in the distance had gradually subsided.
"Guys, we're going back." Tan Xiaozeng narrowed his eyes with a smile and stepped on the flying bridge.
"Fone back." Everyone, who was still immersed in the difference between the sailors and the fleet, were stunned when they heard this. Only then did they find that the sound of the gun had already disappeared, and the fleet began to slowly gather.
"Yes, we just got the news that we have compromised, so we have to go back and rest." Tan Xiaozeng turned around and looked at the Puhe waterway, which was still flashing from time to time. He squeaked his mouth, as if he was still not satisfied.
Because Commander Long Guozhang was unable to accompany him, this operation was led by Tan Xiaozeng. He also felt a little sorry that he could not show the firepower of the Pacific Fleet to these Beiyang generals.
But he didn't know the sentence "I just got the news." The words have caused an uproar in the hearts of several Beiyang generals, and there is only one idea in their minds.
"There is no communication ship, and there is no lantern flag around. How did the chief of staff of the fleet get the news?"
Ye Zukui, who was straightforward, first expressed his doubts, but he didn't expect that the chief of staff of the Pacific Fleet in front of him blinked his eyes and smiled mysteriously.
"We have a pair of wind ears."
“.””——
In the sinking twilight, from afar, street lamps are like crystal clear night pearls. After a circle in the Bahai Harbor, they have radiated and extended to all parts of the island.
Even Shouli City, which used to be hidden in the dark at night, has also become brilliant because of the use of electricity.
At this time, it has long been a dream of ten thousand families, but with the electric lights, not only the factories have started a new shift system, but also the newly built residential areas.
Walking on the road to the villa, Chen Ping was excited. What the young master said was really right. Electricity brought not only a new industrial revolution, but also a earth-shaking change for ordinary people.
Long Guozhang next toalso looked left and right. He was not as far as Chen Ping thought. In his eyes, the appearance of electricity not only made the night more wonderful, but also made the shipyard finally start construction overnight, which would indicate that more warships would join the navy in the future.
More importantly, electricity has also brought revolutionary changes to current warships, such as radios, such as higher-power generators, rotary motors that drive larger turrets, etc.
This change is quietly changing Honolulu and Ryukyu. In the future, it will also change the more vast three northeastern provinces, and even the combat mode of the navy and army.
It's just that under the lights, how many people can see the crisis lurking on the dark sea around at this moment?
Looking at the brightly lit villa not far away, Chen Ping suddenly sighed. In the silent night, although the sigh was slight, it made the Long Guozhang around him slightly shocked.
"Yuanshou, what's wrong with you today? I'm depressed. Are you still worried about me?
"No." Chen Ping shook his head: "I have lost the spirit of the past. If it hadn't been for the support of the Americans last time, I'm afraid it would have gone bankrupt long ago. Now the contradictions in China are very serious. If it hadn't been forcibly suppressed, I'm afraid it would have fallen out. Even if Britain supports it, as long as their warships don't come back in a day, they can't threaten us. "
"So you're worried about Germany? France, or the United States and Russia?
"Germany's threat is not great. As long as they can't get a foothold in the Far East in a day, they can't really threaten us, unless I'm out of my mind and promise to let the German troops."
"France's interests have consumed too much energy in the southwest Pacific, Vietnam and Africa, and they are unable to really threaten us. The United States is a big trouble, but as long as Cuba has not been defeated by them, it is impossible to appear in the Pacific Ocean." Chen Ping's pace was slow and his eyes were sad: "The Russians were disabled and refused to launch an attack in a few years. If Kasini were not a fool, I believe he would make a wise choice soon."
After listening to Chen Ping's words, Long Guozhang was even more surprised and asked, "Then why are you sighing?"
"I'm worried about Britain! The British certainly do not want us to continue to expand. Although they are implementing a policy of continental isolation, the threat of the British Far East Fleet is too great. I just got the news that the British Parliament has officially approved the construction of six new battleships to supplement the Far East Fleet!"
"And."
Long Guozhang's questioning made Chen Ping suddenly stop, turned his head to look at Long Guozhang, and suddenly looked at him seriously and asked, "Lao Long, I need a positive answer from you. If the British give the two battleships built and detained for us to Japan, can your navy win the second time?"
"What!"
