Chapter 433 Victory Parade
@@@@@@In the beautiful Subic Bay, it is green and green, like two outstretched arms, hugging a pool of blue water in my arms.
Small rails pass through the base like flowers and butterflies, and the cement wharf pierces the center of the bay like a sword, with 16 large berths, 20 small and medium-sized berths, plus four dry docks and two 20,000-ton floating docks, which can be described as luxurious.
But even Salisbury is not clear. In fact, although this is the headquarters of the Southern Ocean Fleet of the Royal Chinese Navy and one of the main bases of the fleet, in fact, both the navy and Li Mo prefer Guam bases that can radiate the entire southwest Pacific and are easier to manage and keep secret.
Half a month of closure made Luzon almost shut down. Rubber, tobacco, sucrose, rice and a large amount of mineral resources were all piled on the dock. Both shipowners and merchants were eagerly waiting for the day when the ban was lifted.
No one knows what happened to the war. Luzon began to brew some emotions like a stuffy jar. Rumors began, and the Russian fleet seemed to be everywhere, and even triggered a small-scale disturbance.
After Luzon was re-divided into three provinces and the governorship system was abolished, Zhong Wenyao not only did not lose, but became the deputy prime minister and also served as the minister of Nanyang Affairs.
The chaos and rumors during this period not only did not worry him, but also exposed all the hidden former reading factions. He would not miss this opportunity and immediately put all these people in prison for inciting and creating chaos.
But this is not the way. If the navy really fails, I'm afraid it will really cause panic, so even he wrote nervously, but until three days ago, various telegraph and telegraph companies in Luzon, which had been closed for more than ten days, opened their doors one after another. When the first fleet flying the Xinhua flag entered Manila Bay, everyone's hearts The head jumped up.
The message dissipated in an instant, and even the fooling bastards who posted fake news were spurned at the same time. Although the fleet has not come back, reopening the door shows that the Russians have at least been expelled!
Some clever people began to rush to the Subic military port, hoping to confirm the news with their own eyes. When more and more people crowded around the base, the largest military port in Nanyang suddenly opened its doors to all citizens for the second time.
On the wharf, there has long been a sea of people. More than 70% of the tens of thousands of people are Chinese, and some of them have been wandering in the Nanyang for many years. Some of them also brought children. At this time, some of them suppressed their mood and looked at the huge figure outside the harbor that was slowly turning around, and even needed to cover their mouths. Only then can you calm yourself down.
It's back!
Our fleet is back!
On the dock, the eighteen salute cannons in a row broke out at the same time. When the rolling thunder passed out from Subic, the cheers also exploded from both sides of the dock and the waterway. People waved straw hats and raised their hands, and the young man even took off their clothes.
The sailors, dressed in white navy uniforms, stood on both sides of the ship and quietly looked at the cheering crowd. Their waists were straight and their faces were smiling.
When the Jilin made a long whistle, the cheer reached **, especially the Duke and Fengtian, which relied on the tugboat to enter the port, became the main targets of those journalists who were allowed to enter.
This time, Li Mo did not cover it up, but generously let the reporters approach and shoot freely, because he knew that these warships, this fleet and himself will become the most important force in the world from now on!
Long Guozhang took the captains to the welcoming ceremonial table, slowly raised his arms, tilted to the top of his eyebrows, and shouted, "Report, Long Guozhang, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy, returned with all the officers and soldiers. Now pay tribute to the great emperor!"
"Welcome back, my warriors!" In Li Mo's passionate voice, Salisbury, who accompanied the welcome together, couldn't help pulling the corners of his mouth. Only two of the fourteen capital ships that participated in the decisive battle were really damaged, and one did not sink. Even the eight unarmoured Chinese people's original light patrols were not lost!
What on earth is supporting them and winning one victory after another?!
When he boarded the Fengtian in the company of Li Mo, his face became more gloomy. This huge big guy with three triple heavy artillery was covered with cracks and craters, and the black mottled pieces not only did not make it look embarrassed, but also made people feel a kind of tough.
The World Third Fleet has turned into sand. If Nicholas II made the wrong choice, would Russia perish? Will Li Mo's arm extend along the Siberian artery to Europe?!
Thinking of the yellow people entering the white world from then on, Salisbury felt dizzy.
"Your Majesty, isn't this too high-profile?" Seeing that Salisbury's face was getting more and more gloomy, Zhong Wenyao, who was accompanying him, was afraid of affecting the subsequent negotiations, and couldn't help asking quietly.
Li Mo looked at the British Prime Minister, who was listening to Long Guozhang's introduction to Feng Tianhao, and smiled: "So you say, if I keep a low profile and pretend to be a grandson for him, will he relax our vigilance from now on?"
"No." Zhong Wenyao shook his head affirmatively.
"That's right." Li Mo hooked the corners of his mouth and said proudly, "Whether we are low-key or not, when the navy anniversed the Russian fleet and the news that the army killed the Yenisei River is announced, do you know what that means?"
"Meaning." Looking at Li Moxue's bright eyes, Zhong Wenyao thought about it and suddenly rose a trace of flush on his cheeks, and his breath was short: "The first big country!"
"Yes." Li Mo nodded: "You have created a miracle and created the world's first land country in ten years, so you think that those powers will not pay attention to us because we keep a low profile?"
"Since it is inevitable to arouse the vigilance of others, why don't you just make a high profile?"
"Do you know?" Li Mo pointed to the nearest sailors and said, "Our navy's total tonnage is less than 30% of that of the British, but these soldiers consume twice as many training shells as the British navy every year!" The annual training volume is three times that of them, and the longest record of continuous training at sea is 220 days!"
"They have been receiving the hardest training in the world since they put on their military uniforms. They have completed what the great powers need 20 or even 30 years to complete in ten years. What are they doing?"
"Is it the thick military allowance? Is it love for the sea? Li Mo smiled and pinched his fist to himself: "Neither! They are soldiers. When they put on military uniforms, carry guns, and set foot on the warship, except for defending their families and foreign countries, who doesn't have the idea of returning home with glory in their hearts?
"Remember, we now have nearly a million soldiers, and each of them is a family, or even a family! When they gradually retire and return to their hometown with a medal full of clothes, how many people will be affected?
The voice made Zhong Wenyao nod repeatedly. Indeed, as Li Mo said, if this group of soldiers retire, the families and clans behind them will undoubtedly become the most hardcore supporters of Xinhua, because they have fought down this world, and they will never tolerate others to destroy the territory of the sea!
"You will inform Mr. Li and the Prime Minister's Office later, mobilize all newspapers, notify all counties and cities along the coast, and post the list to publicize as much as possible. I will ask the general participants to cooperate fully! I want my fleet to hold a coastal parade with the captured Russian [***] ships, not only in Luzon, but also in Borneo, Hong Kong, Guangzhou and Xiamen all the way north! Let the fleet have a good stroll along our coast, even don't let North Korea and Japan go! Let the whole world see that the pride of our Chinese nation is gradually awakening!"
"Go once, and the parade can only be held by the winner!"
"Victory Parade!" These words made Zhong Wenyao's eyes suddenly shine, and his heart was even more admired by Li Mo. There is no doubt that when the fleet carries the captured Russian [***] ships all the way north along the coastline, what kind of excitement and morale will be injected into the country!
Li Mo took a deep breath.
As a comebacker, he is really speechless to the writers who wrote in his previous life who thought they could play low-key after robbing Siberia from Maozi. When the huge territory is almost the same as that of a China is merged, if he still pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, he is undoubtedly looking for it to die!
The whole world will put you under the magnifying glass!
Big country!
There must be a posture and majesty to match a big country!
So it's not that he doesn't know how to keep a low profile, and it doesn't know what will bring after a high profile, but since it's impossible to bring benefits in a low profile, why don't you slap those great powers hard?!
A country, a regime, even if it has been under strict supervision and empty propaganda for many years, the effect of awakening the people and uniting the hearts of the people is far less effective than that of a foreign war. Why is the hero style of the Han and Tang Dynasties still recited thousands of years later? Is it the development of the economy? Is it the prosperity of the prosperous times?
No, no, none of them!
The real reason is that they all had a rolling iron army that dared to face war and rush out of the Central Plains. Even in distant foreign lands, even if the number of people is not dominant, they can show national pride and make the world bow down!
Now this army is waking up little by little. The Russian army is just a small test. Even after walking into the sea from the yellow land that has been sleepy for thousands of years, this army can also prove to the world that in the east of the world, there is a powerful fleet, one from the blood fire. Come out of the fleet!
The Chinese nation!
It's time for the world to listen carefully to the voices from the East!
So he needs this parade, hiding the pride of thousands of years with giant ships and cannons!
Three days later, when the fleet completed its rest and the Duke and Fengtian had self-navigable capabilities after emergency maintenance, the navy launched a victory parade in the whole waters of Xinhua for the first time with more than a dozen captured Russian [***] ships.
From Luzon to Borneo, from there to Guangxi, Hainan, Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao, Fujian, Taiwan, and Shanghai all the way north. In addition to showing the strength of the country to ordinary people, we also carried out the first activity of opening warships to all citizens of Hong Kong cities for them to visit.
Newspapers all over the country have mobilized, and even the inland Yungui, Hunan, Sichuan and other provinces have seen the news of the naval parade. A paragraph not only records the strength of the country, but also takes this opportunity to tell everyone that in addition to the huge land territory, Xinhua also has a huge need for maritime interests. Protect!
Tell them that no matter where they set sail and follow the migrant ship to where, there will be a navy silently protecting them with blood and life!
When the last fleet arrived in Incheon and turned around in Japan's Tokyo Bay, North Korea and Japan's political axes almost non-stop sent special envoys to Yanjing to repeatedly confirm the friendship between China and North Korea and China!
The whole world has been burned by Li Mo's crazy behavior!
On April 30, Xinhua issued another announcement, announcing the northern victory for the second time. It not only annihidized a total of 250,000 troops of the Russian Middle Army led by Kuropatkin, but also captured the Russian army minister alive and telegramed the whole country. The army has recovered all the northern homeland east of the Yenisei River!
When the haggard faces in the political axes of various countries opened the map to see the location of the Yenisei River, their eyes widened!
Then the world was in an uproar!!!
Because!
The country with the world's first land and the world's second sea was born!!!
