1890 King of Southeast Asia

The west coast of the Pacific Ocean, the east of Dadonggou, dozens of warships are gathered here, and the smoke is filled with smoke.

"Speed ​​at 3/4, accelerate the past, use the advantages of firing guns, and concentrate the firepower attacking the flagship." Gu Fan commanded the fleet and launched an attack to the Beiyang several kilometers away.

Boom!

The sound of gunfire was rolling, and a pillar of the roots was raised.

"Putting the geese array, the ships pay attention to cooperation, don't disconnect." Ding Ruchang also directed the fleet difficult to approach Gu Fan.

This is a exercise, the north -south fight against the exercise, the name is a bit funny.

However, this is the two countries from the Eight Classics to fight against exercises, and they also took out the fleets of the two countries.

All Beiyang was dispatched. In addition to the far away, there are torpedo boats and mosquito ships, which form a useless, but terrible fleet cluster.

Nanhua is still the Chang'an and Luojing, two nine thousand -ton -class armored cruisers.

By the way, the British dress patrol has also laid the keel, and the parameters are running to suppress Changluo level. The standard displacement is over 10,000 tons, and the speed is 22 knots.

The British claimed that the warship could not fight it, it was far from being able to catch it, and it could be used for the fleet decisive battle.

Correspondingly, Tsarist Russia is looking for techniques that can make warships so fast. The speed of 18 verses of the light -class cruisers seems to be outdated.

But he is still in the dump stage! The 10,000 -ton ships that have not been able to serve have been outdated from the field they are good at.

The French were greatly encouraged and went further and further on the road of the Green Water Navy ...

In the United States, let's not talk about the United States, a turtle shell that is not competent.

"Master Li, I want me to say that the ending is obvious. As long as you go to sea, I have a speed advantage and harass you at all times. Talk to Lord Li.

"Huh, even so, my fleet gathered, you can't take much cheap." Master Li knew clearly, but he couldn't lose in his mouth.

Master Li's heart was clear, why did the fleet go out of Hong Kong, for assembly? Whoever was so boring and fought for a lifetime, he was very clear that the navy's motion was dead and died. This has lost.

Liu Yiming shook his head.

"Master Li didn't understand, why did I choose the exercise venue here?" Liu Yiming looked at the north.

"Speaking of it, to the Han, to the Ming, the grievances of our grievances with the Japanese ... but that is unclear, it can't be written."

"Do you think Japan wants to start from the peninsula? But why?" Master Li also felt reasonable, and then couldn't figure it out immediately.

The reason is that the distance is very close, and it is a vassal state.

If you don't want to be a vassal state, where can I make up 300 million or more? If you do n’t need Japan, Lao Li does it himself.

"There are many enemies for no reason, no one wants?" Master Li's expression was strange.

"Otherwise, where is it? Ryukyu? I retreated slowly, and lost a few islands at most. At that time, any Japanese boat must not go south to Malacca. The idea of ​​pushing back.

"That coastal town, that is not as good as its peninsula?"

"You all know that it's a heavy town, would he still be stupid?"

Unconsciously, the two started the strategic conference mode.

(I am reiterating that the purpose of the protagonist is not to help Die clear, to allow the two countries to start military reserve competitions and carry out military confrontation. Consumption of Japan's national strength.)

"Once the war is started, Japan sought to be a quick decision, the Jinmen turret is densely set, and there are many troops, and the battle cannot be over in a short time. It will score troops to the south. Can't do. "Liu Yijie analyzed.

"So, he can only go north, and he must decide to be on the sea, isn't it?" Master Li also brought back his soldiers. The basic truth still understands.

"Almost, the result came out, let's take a look." Liu Yiming leaned his lips, excused for the sound of artillery, and went to see the results of the exercise.

Otherwise, it must be decided at sea, and Beiyang must be the case, otherwise what do you expect? Logistics chaos is not enough, and there are scarce arms? No need.

Two boats shuttled among the warships and pulled the captains into the yacht.

"How can there be this reason! It is really difficult to hide it!" Ding Ruchang was furious when he got on the ship. One by one.

Only torpedo boats, tube bands of mosquito ships, and Li He of Heping Yuan ship, slightly better.

"Noisy! What is the body!" Because the noise was too loud, and there were outsiders, Lord Li was on fire.

"I know the crime!" At first sight, Li was angry, and he fell to the ground one by one.

"Okay, Master Li, the two armies played against each other, do you still want them to be kind?" Liu Yiming saw that it was late and didn't want to waste time.

"Let the Prime Minister laugh,

Several of you, talk about the results of the exercise. "Lord Li just feels embarrassed and punished? It is impossible!

"The result of the exercise calculation is ... ... Our army is defeated!" Ding Ruchang flushed his face flushed and stunned.

"Zhengqing, you said." Lord Li turned his head and asked to the Lord Deng who was on the Luojing.

"After calculating, in the north, in one hour, there were more than two hundred shots, three big ships, and sank seven (torpedo boat, mosquito ship, 152 was easy to get on the sky), South China ... 80th, light injury. "Master Deng reported the data.

In fact, the number of bullets was definitely not that large. Both sides were conducting exercises and did not take many factors into account.

However, the record of Naniwa has been released. Such a large ship was only hit by a dozen or so shells in total, and finally sank.

"Why is the disparity so big?" Lord Li was eager to know the reason.

"The armored cruiser, the hardened armor can basically ignore your small and medium-caliber guns, and the large-caliber guns have a slow firing rate. In addition, my ship is fast and close, so you have no complaints about losing." Liu Yiming smiled.

Lord Li's face was full of disbelief. This result was unacceptable to him.

"Right! You still have to buy a ship!" Liu Yiming took the opportunity to act. This old man was too stubborn. He clearly thought that there was not so much trouble.

Lord Li's face was uncertain. After all, buying a ship is not like buying a gun. You can collect some money by yourself and write a report after buying it.

You have to report to the court first when buying a ship, even if you pay for it yourself. If the court does not agree, there is nothing you can do.

As for money, Beiyang still has one more thing, especially after the trade with Nanhua, Nanhua will consume a large amount of silver locally and transport a small amount back to the country.

The main consumption is used for immigration. The immigration point in Dongshan has become a huge dock, spitting out thousands of people every day and swallowing very few, after all, it is a dedicated dock.

"I have to ask you for one more thing..." Lord Li remembered his old business again, raising the enemy to protect himself!

………

The Double Ninth Festival has just passed, and the emperor has just participated in the Northern Expedition. In his eyes, this huge empire is getting better and better, and the Tongzhi Restoration will soon transition to the Guangxu Reign.

"Greetings to my dear father!" No matter what, the woman in front of him has put him on the throne, and she is about to return power to the emperor, and he will be able to do a big thing soon!

"Get up, come on, show the emperor a seat!" The old witch looked at the growing emperor, feeling both relieved and scared.

The relief is that this is her sister's child. At the beginning, when her sister cried and complained, she brought him to inherit the throne.

What she feared was that he had grown up and the emperor would rule the country. After the garden was repaired, she would have to give up power. Having experienced the feeling of power, she was afraid of losing it.

"What did the emperor gain from this northern hunting trip?" After all, the old witch was an expert in power politics. When it came to power struggles, she could remain calm even when the sky was falling.

"I killed two deer with my own hands..." The emperor described the process like a filial son and grandson.

The old witch also listened to the emperor's story like a loving mother.

"Old Buddha, Prince Gong wants to see you. There is something urgent to report." Li Lianying interrupted the old witch's enjoyment.

"Announce!" The old witch looked at the emperor, but did not drive him away in the end.

"Your servant greets your servant." Prince Gong saluted the emperor before saluting.

"Your servant greets the emperor."

"Get up! We are all family. What's the hurry?" The old witch asked casually. After all, it was Chongyang Festival, and she thought she was just saying something auspicious.

"Report to the old Buddha, something bad has happened. Tianjin has sent an urgent telegram saying that two huge ships have arrived outside the port. Ask how to deal with them." Prince Gong said cautiously.

He didn't want to come either, but he had no choice but to pretend that he didn't see anything. After all, if this matter was reported, the old witch would be furious. Whoever went there would be in trouble.

"What?!" Sure enough, the old witch stood up.

"Which country's warship forgot to report?" The old witch remembered thirty years ago, still in this palace, she and her husband Xianfeng fled here, ran far away, and the garden was burned to ashes. It was called the Northern Hunt in history.

"I have asked the consuls of various countries, and it was not their warships."

Prince Gong paused.

"I have ordered Li Hongzhang to send the Beiyang Fleet to attack at full speed. Please make the decision, Your Majesty."

"Make the decision! Make the decision! What is Li Hongzhang doing? Such a big Beiyang, and someone slipped in!" The old witch is good at internal power politics, pulling one faction against another, and has the highest power. She is very familiar with this game.

She is a mess outside, knows nothing, and still puts on airs.

"Your Majesty, the commander of Tianjin Wei has an urgent telegram." Li Lianying came again.

"Read!" The old witch has lost her sense of proportion.

"It has been confirmed that the warships belong to the second detachment of the South China Special Task Force. Two 10,000-ton ships are on a friendly visit. Their envoy Lin Pingzhi hopes to conclude a treaty with our Qing Dynasty and be friendly with each other. In addition, we will set up consulates with each other..."

"Enough!" The old witch calmed down a little when she heard that they were not here to start a war.

"Let the Beiyang destroy..."

"Your Majesty!" Prince Gong suddenly fell to the ground.

"What?" The old witch was puzzled.

"We can't win..." Prince Gong explained to her the significance of two 10,000-ton warships.

"Let Li Hongzhang go and talk. Also, discuss expanding the navy and rectifying the coastal defense!" The old witch wanted to make trouble for Lord Li, but Lord Li was first of all a member of the Hou Party, and secondly the largest warlord and military force.

She couldn't make a decision at the moment. Since she couldn't win, she would expand the navy. Anyway, she didn't want to flee this place in a hurry.
