Chapter 830 Great Victory

Twilight is thick, and the motor is rumbling.

The old guest stood on the deck of his fishing boat and carefully greeted his brother to take the helm. In his forties, he was not only black and thin, but also looked more like an old woman because he was fishing in the sea all year round.

"Uncle, here we are."

After turning over a reef, the lighthouse suddenly appeared in front of him, which made the old guest family much more relaxed, and the little nephew jumped up happily.

The fishing boat quickly leaned against the dock. As soon as it saw a boat coming back, the fishmongers waiting here in the middle of the night swarmed to surround the old guest's boat.

The old guest was not in a hurry. First, he asked his little nephew to pick up the light with the generator on the ship, and then asked the two brothers to carry a large water tank down. When everyone was wondering, there was a movement from the water tank. Several fishmongers standing in front of him with sharp eyes lit up their eyes.

grouper!

Southern people's good fish, especially this grouper, is tender and white. It has always been the supreme delicacy on the table of the glutton.

It's a pity that the grouper is difficult to catch. It's good to bring back a few on a boat, but the old guest's hand really aroused everyone's eyes. You should know that the old guest is a famous fishing master in the Quanzhou area. He grew up on the boat. If others say that this ship is a grouper, they will not believe it, but if the old guest says so, everyone will definitely believe it.

"Ha ha, not much, only a few dozen boxes."

"Good boy!"

The words of the old guest immediately detonated the fishmonger. Everyone surrounded the old guest with a hula. Some handed over cigarettes and some poured water. In short, they wished to serve him as a grandfather.

"Oh, the old guest is back."

There are rules of the fish market in the dock fish market, so the old guest is not in a hurry to open. After hearing this sound, he quickly got up and shouted, "The shopkeeper is here."

In the light, a rich-looking man in his forties came over with a few clerks. Seeing that the old guests were surrounded by fishmongers, he immediately laughed and scolded, "There are no rules. What's the matter to be surrounded like this? Besides, how dare you take out your shady cigarettes? I can tell you that the eldest son of the old guest is the captain of our navy! I didn't bring back some good wine and cigarettes that year.

"Ha ha, you raised the captain. The cruisers don't count. When can you become the captain of the battleship? That's called the captain."

As soon as he heard that someone told the details of his eldest son, the old guest seemed to be itchy all over, especially when he saw that the fishmongers' eyes had changed, which cracked his mouth and waved his hand.

"Captain of the cruiser!"

The modest words of the old guests are heard in the ears of the fishmongers, but there are two things. Everyone makes a living from the sea. Over the years, the sea has been stable and messy, and they have also made a lot of money. Naturally, they are most familiar with the escorting navy, so when they heard that it is the cruiser captain, it really has a little respect.

"This fish is good." The big shopkeeper leaned in front of the water tank and looked twice, and nodded repeatedly. The old guest quickly called his nephew to pick one and take it home to drink.

The shopkeeper knew the old guest's temper, so he was not polite. After counting the quantity according to the procedures, he handed the fish tax form that needed to be paid to the old guest. After that, he suddenly asked, "Old guest, last time I heard from you that your eldest son went to Panama?"

"Yes, it's been several months, and I don't know how it is."

As soon as the old guest talked about his son, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. After all, the war is not a joke, and the cruiser is not as rough as the battleship. He always feels very secure and quickly asked, "Big boss, why do you ask this today?"

The shopkeeper thought of what happened on the radio last night and thought that the old guest already knew it. After all, there was also a radio on his ship, so he immediately patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, we will definitely win."

The old guest was confused: "Worried? What are you worried about? That's not going to happen in Panama!"

The old guest was particularly nervous about everything related to his son and grabbed the big shopkeeper: "Big shopkeeper, what do you mean by this?"

"Huh? I said, old guest, didn't you receive the broadcast last night?

"Broadcast?" The old guest was daunted at first. He suddenly remembered something and said quickly, "It was windy last night, and I just wanted to come back early. Didn't I open it? What did you say on the radio?"

Seeing the old guest's really unwitting appearance, the shopkeeper quickly handed him a cigarette and comforted him, "Old guest, don't worry, it's such a thing."

Standing in front of the fish stall on the dock, the big shopkeeper said the original story of the opening of Bermuda in the broadcast last night. When the comparison of the forces of the two sides and other things were all turned out, the old guest, who had always been cheerful, was stunned, smoking a cigarette and looked like hesitant.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

"Yes, when did our navy lose the battle?"

"Yes, yes, those Citi's chicks are not enough for our destroyers. Maybe as soon as the cruiser drove over, they were so scared that they peed their trousers and raised the white flag directly."

When the fishmongers around heard this, they also comforted the old guests one after another. For a while, the sound of selling fish on the dock was much smaller.

"It's okay." After smoking a few cigarettes, the old guest waved to his nephew and brother, signaling them to continue to sell fish: "Sell fish, do business!" When the boss comes back, no matter what he looks like, I will tell him a beautiful daughter-in-law!"

"Ouch, old guest, just say this to you, boss, he will be fine!" The shopkeeper raised his thumb. Although the atmosphere just now was a little sad, after all, it was a rare grouper, and the number was still large, so everyone's interest gradually increased.

As the sun rose, several fishing boats came back, and the fish market gradually came to the busiest time. Just as everyone was the busiest, a faint voice outside the fish market suddenly sounded.

"Winning! I won! I won!"

"What won?"

"Erhazi, you have drunk too much."

"I said, you won't beat your aunt, will you? I'm staring at the big white buttocks and eggs. I'm afraid you can't feed him enough.

"Haha."

The young man who was called Erhazi kicked the fishmonger away and scolded with a smile, "Fuck you, I don't have time to fool around with you!" After saying that, he hurried to the shopkeeper and shouted, "Uncle, you won! Our navy won!"

"What!" Before everyone could react, the old guest jumped up, grabbed Er Hezi's arm, and asked anxiously, "Er Hezi, are you telling the truth?"

"Uncle, of course it's true. If you don't believe it, turn on the radio and listen to it. I'm talking about it!" Erhaizi is probably also a fan of the navy. He waved his hand excitedly and shouted, "Our navy has won a great victory! Defeat the British and American joint fleet and win! I won!"

His shouting was really inspiring, but everyone didn't know whether it was true or not, especially when many people heard what was said on the radio last night. They always felt that it was not so easy. It was dozens of large warships, plus small warships, nearly 100.

The old guest didn't care about selling fish. He quickly got into the bridge and turned on the radio that the eldest son bought last time he came back. After turning it on, he immediately twisted the sound to the maximum.

After a rustling, the familiar girl's voice finally came from the loudspeaker.

"Latest news, 4:30 this morning."

The voice came out, and the whole dock gradually quieted down: "China's Ministry of Defense, the Admiralty and the Prime Minister's Office issued a joint announcement. Our Royal Navy Combined Fleet defeated the British and American Combined Fleet off the Bermuda Islands at 4 a.m., sinking and destroying a total of 53 enemy warships, including 18 battleships. 6 heavy cruisers, 5 aircraft carriers, and several enemy chiefs were killed! Our navy lost two cruisers.

The hearts of the old guest and everyone suddenly poke.

"Nujiang, Jinshajiang, 7 destroyers."

"No, not the boss's ship, not the boss's ship! Haha."

As soon as he heard the name of the cruiser without his son's command, the old guest suddenly jumped up. Everyone who had already held their breath cheered, and the whole fish market was boiling!

Great victory!

Bermu is a great victory!

Sinking and defeating 53 enemy ships!

On the dock, on the fishing boat, everyone cheered forgetfully, not only for the old guest's son, but also for this ancient and modern naval good news! Several young people even climbed to the lighthouse and waved the national flag they had found somewhere.

It's not just a fishing port. In fact, with the transmission of radio waves, the land of China is boiling as long as it can receive radio broadcast signals!

Shanghai, Guangzhou, Changsha and so on, the places where radio broadcasts can be received all over the country are boiling. In the era when radios are rare, every move always attracts countless eyes. Emperor Li's painstaking efforts ** used wireless live broadcast of the war and arranged a night of suspense, which made countless people worry about the sleepless victory or defeat. The moment the mystery was solved, it had such a sensational effect!

The newspaper company began to work overtime for printing, and the most well-known teahouse pub was full of people in the early morning. Some good businesses moved their usual precious radios to the street, allowing everyone to listen to it.

In fact, just when the good news was sent back to China and began to be reprinted by radio and newspapers, a war eagle was still hovering.

The last touch of the remnants of

20 was sprinkled on the goggles with pieces of blood. Behind the lens was a pair of cold eagle eyes looking down at the sea, and the sharp light locked on the majestic body of the sinking battleship Alabama.

Looking at the figure standing on the flying bridge, holding the command knife high and rather than leave. There is no sympathy, no pity, but just a faint squirming of fingers on the trigger.

The shell was not fired in the end, because it was not necessary!

U.S. time, at 17:55 p.m. on July 20, sporadic battles began after the canal was reopened, and began to escalate in early July. Until now, the largest naval battle in history has finally come to an end with the final sinking of the Alabama.

Within a month, Britain and the United States gathered in a total of 34 capital ships on the West Coast. Except for the lucky escape of the Prestise and the Counterattack, which were the first to leave, 24 of the other 32 ships (including Campbell's fleet) were sunk, and the remaining 8 were also useless due to overturning or serious injury, and were subsequently rushed to the Xinhua Sea. The military rescue fleet and tugboats brought it back to Panama.

Most of the more than 87 cruisers and destroyers also sank, and only a few returned to the west coast of the United States.

As for the seven aircraft carriers modified by the United Kingdom and the United States, they all sank! With thousands of elite pilots and the first aircraft carrier crew, they were either killed or captured.

In addition to the equipment, the United Kingdom and the United States lost a total of 51,000 naval officers, of whom 27,000 died in battle, and the rest spent a long period of time in the prisoner of war camps.

And the Lieutenant General Jelico, who was famous in the world after Delan and was even widely reprinted by Xinhua newspapers, also sank into the Atlantic with the flagship!

There were only two prominent characters on the front page of all Xinhua newspapers on that day.

"Great Victory"!
