However, the characteristic of the former dreadnought is that it is equipped with heavy artillery and secondary artillery as the main gun, which can shoot freely from multiple angles.

But the "Shenzhou" has no main guns, no turrets, and only 22 semi-fixed guns.

It can be simply understood that the "Shenzhou" is a particularly thick armored ship. Two rows of field guns are placed on the sides of the small container freighter. It is essentially a spiritual sequel to the sailing battleship. )

The British Foreign Secretary immediately added:

"Of course, we believe that the Ming Dynasty is an important force in maintaining peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific region. There is room for cooperation between us on many issues."

"However, this does not mean that the British Empire can tolerate damage to the empire's overseas interests. We ask Mingfang to fulfill its responsibility and commitment to protect British nationals."

Facing the unreasonable accusations from the British, Zhao Aqian, Minister of Rites of the Ming Dynasty, argued hard.

In an interview with the Neue Berlin Zeitung, Zhao Aqian clearly expressed his opposition to the British Foreign Secretary's statement:

"The British consulate was built by Dixie, and the church was burned by God worshipers. It has nothing to do with our Ming Empire.

On the contrary, I, Ming, actively treated British citizens in a humanitarian spirit. "

"For example, in this picture, a 200-pound doctor in my country is performing chest hammer compressions on a British gentleman. This technique has been proven to be mature and effective.

In "Ghost Valley", a sub-publication of "Da Ming Royal Science Journal", there are at least 15 related papers pointing out its efficacy.

The Royal College of Practicing Physicians has also repeatedly called for its adoption. "

"Another example is this picture. This is a Chinese soldier feeding boiled water to an elderly and frail British priest. Boiled water is good for your health. Drinking more boiled water can prevent intestinal infections and various diseases. This is also obtained by "Ghost Valley" magazine approved."

"As for your question about whether the word 'kai' is in the past tense or in the continuous tense? Sorry, my Chinese is a mature language, and I have long since discarded the bloated tenses of speech, so what is the method of opening this boiled water, pardon me The official has nothing to say!"

……

The one who condemned Daming immediately after Daiying was naturally returning to the North American Lijian who had the filial son sequence of Daiying.

It has been less than 100 years since the founding of the United States, and the so-called manifest destiny has not passed any factual test.

Therefore, the road confidence and system confidence of the United States today are far from being as full as those of later generations, and they are invincible.

In fact, after these years of continuous attacks, among many people in the northern United States, the call for returning to the Commonwealth of Nations is getting louder and louder.

It's just that the big capitalists are worried about the tax rate of the Commonwealth of Nations and have always been in the way.

Shadow President Lincoln Jr. has been ambiguous and noncommittal.

But there is no doubt that North American fathers and British fathers are unswervingly standing together on the point of anti-Ming.

Lincoln Jr. seems to have inherited his father's gift for oratory.

When news of the Tianjin public trial reached Washington via transoceanic radio waves, Lincoln Jr. delivered a short speech on the South Lawn of the White House—"Make America Great Again!" "

"Today, on behalf of my father, I am here to announce a sad news to all the citizens and gentlemen of the United States. My father is too sad to speak.

Just three days ago, our fellow men, our commercial interests, and our cherished liberties were deliberately attacked by an 'evil spirit' from the East.

Many talented diplomats, businessmen, and theologians died unfortunately. They may be employees of the federal government. They were warriors who went to the east to seek opportunities.

In the newspapers that you can’t read, I saw pictures of the raging fire and the collapse of the church. I couldn’t believe the tragedy in front of me, and felt extremely sad and angry.

I have ordered all federal agencies to purchase 20 Stars and Stripes, 13 candles, tens of thousands of flowers, and we will be here tonight in mourning.

Well, you can rest assured that there will be a special congressional appropriation for flags, candles, and flowers, and we have the best quality and cheapest supplier, but I can't name it.

So, let us mourn the dead and pray for the captured..."

[Voice-over, the audience interrupted: "So, Mr. President, what about the prisoners who are still alive? I heard that they can be bought back with money! Will Congress allocate funds?"]

"Security, security, please cross this gentleman out, thank you."

"Okay, an innocuous episode, let's continue.

We will mourn the dead and pray for the prisoners. There will be concerts and candlelight dinners by the lake. Ladies and gentlemen, we will gather together and sing hymns!

In addition, of course we have to make the 'evil spirit' from the east pay the price.

Over the years, we have had enough of the harassment and oppression of Ming imperialism.

We should unite and let Ming people see our strength.

We want Ming to know that the United States can also say no!

I have sent emissaries to London to seek support for our just cause.

As soon as Her Majesty's aid arrives, our little Field Marshal Robert will attack--Richmond!

Please rest assured that the struggle against Baoming will surely win.

But that will take a little while, because only the most professional, meticulous, and foolproof work will ensure that things go the way we want them to.

Finally, today is the day that all Northerners of America unite in pursuit of justice and peace. 100 years from now, every American will never forget today, and we will press forward to defend freedom and defend all the good and just things in the world.

MAGA! ! ! "

Chapter 503 The Franco-Prussian War

In addition to the superpowers leading the British Empire, the anti-Ming vanguard, or at least the verbal vanguard North America has successively expressed its condemnation of Ming's atrocities, Spain, Belgium, Russia, and even the utterly hopeless Ottoman Empire have all successively issued statements condemning Ming. .

Of course, France, the number one sufferer in the Tianjin Public Trial of the Ming Dynasty, was not to be outdone.

Grevy, President of the Third French Republic, and Gambetta, a republican leader, delivered speeches successively, expressing that the proud French rooster will shed the last drop of blood for the Ming-French war.

Either Paris falls, or Zhu Fugui is hanged on the gallows, or France will never sign any ceasefire agreement with the brutal Ming people.

The French and the Eastern tyrants are sworn to death!

However, at the first time, the official newspaper of Ming Dynasty, "Daming Times (Overseas Edition)" published in French the article "Angrily Rebuking Hypocritical Republican Officials" written by the French Emperor Napoleon III who lived in Xinfeng.

In the article, His Majesty Nasan pointed out that he has not issued an abdication statement so far. The Paris Parliament announced the abolition of the monarchy and deprivation of his throne is completely illegal.

He is currently receiving political asylum in Daming, where he has received good hospitality and respect.

His Majesty Nassan called on the upright and brave French people to take up arms and send Gambetta and Grevi to the gallows.

The government of the Third Republic also declared that Napoleon III was guilty of treason and should be hanged on a telephone pole.

In this way, the two groups of people hanged each other in the air, making the radio waves over the Atlantic more and more busy.

But generally speaking, there are very few people in France who respond to take His Majesty the Three.

The people of Paris still prefer to hang the emperor than to hang the president.

And this time, there might be a chance to hang Napoleon III and Zhu Fugui at the same time, and hang two emperors at the same time, that would be double happiness.

……

Compared with the active denunciation in France, the French minister in Beijing, Luo Shuya, also wanted to reprimand Zhu Fugui loudly at the first time.

However, he once saw the scene of the executioner killing the prisoner at Caishikou in Beijing.

At that time, Luo Shuya felt that it was quite exotic, which fully reflected the barbarism of the yellow race. She even ordered people to take a lot of photos and prepared to take them back to Paris for exhibition.

But when he heard that his colleague was actually executed in this way by Ming people, the photos in his hand suddenly became unsavory.

When the rabbit dies, the fox is sad, and things hurt its kind.

Luo Shuya felt a dull ache all over her body, and was about to run away overnight.

As a result, he was bewildered and lacked business sense, only to realize that there is no horse-drawn carriage in today's Beijing, so he can only buy a few donkey carts and escape with his entourage at night.

After several times of donkey cart drifting, Luo Shuya finally breathed a sigh of relief when she reached the north of the Great Wall, and was ready to write a letter to severely reprimand Daming.

"Your crimes are known to everyone from potato burials in Ireland to seal burials in Hudson Bay!"

"Plutocracy and shit are synonymous in our country!"

"Cubs of the Ming are well suited to work in the mines of Lorraine, Alsace!"

Several sheets of paper were filled with Luo Shuya's coquettish words.

But when he took out a map, ruler, and compasses to measure the distance between his location and Tianjin, he finally crumpled up all the letters and threw them into the stove.

……

Just when politicians from various countries put on a show and condemned Ming, almost turning Ming Dynasty into a public enemy of the world, an unexpected and reasonable war broke out.

On April 4, the Kingdom of Prussia, which had been secretly mobilized, declared war on the French Third Republic in the name of French interference in Spain's internal affairs and solidarity with the just cause of the Kingdom of Italy (Sardinia) to unify the Apennine Peninsula.

It is a pity that neither Spain nor Italy cooperated with Prussia in declaring war on France.

However, it is harmless, the war between the French and the Ming people is still going on, and the pickled pork of Ming Dynasty is continuously entering Prussia through the Ottomans.

Pork is fighting power, and the Prussians won a son before fighting.

After full mobilization, the Prussian army was appointed by William I as the commander-in-chief and Moltke as the chief of staff.

Moltke's combat plan was to concentrate superior forces to attack Alsace and Lorraine, trying to annihilate the main force of the French army on the Franco-Prussian border or drive them to the north of France, and then attack Paris.

The mobilization plan of the Prussian army was well planned. The troops were transported by rail. By the end of April, three legions of about 4 people had been assembled on the border.

In addition, there are 10 Ming-made armored trains that have been assembled, 43 Prussian "moles" refitted from Ming-made foreign trade tractors, and 1584 Krupp artillery pieces.

On the other hand, France has been busy with the infighting between the republicans and the imperialists, and was caught off guard by the Prussians.

However, because of the absence of the "heroic and fearless" Nasan Majesty, the French command and mobilization have been strengthened.

On April 4, the Prussian army first launched an attack on the French army in the Saarbrücken area with 27 divisions.

The Prussian infantry faced the French with the "American method of warfare" and established a line of defense with barbed wire + bursting machine guns and suffered heavy losses.

They dispatched "mole" to break the defense.

The debut of barbed wire on the European land was crushed by tanks, which can be said to be both good and good.

If it is said that the United States and the Soviet Union took turns to teach the Africans infantry tactics, even if they were sad and gray-haired, they didn't learn it, then Ming didn't teach it at all, and the Prussians realized their own set of tanks.

Taking advantage of the tank's mobility and ability to break defenses, Prince Frederick of Prussia led the Second Army to defeat the troops of General Douai, the French army, in the Battle of Wissembourg.

Just when the Prussians tasted the sweetness of the tank and were about to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, when they marched into Paris in one fell swoop, there was a huge roar, and a "mole" was blown into the sky.

It turned out that the French, who had suffered enough from Ming tanks in Mexico for a long time, have not stagnated in armaments despite constant internal friction in the past two years.

For the nightmare of "tanks", the best way is naturally to use tanks against tanks.

However, diesel engines and tracked chassis are not so easy to do, and they cannot be produced by themselves with the current industrial strength of France.

So they developed a series of strange anti-tank weapons.

The anti-tank mines modified with artillery shells were a gift prepared by the French for Ming Dynasty, but they were tasted by the Prussians.

Trading space for time, the French Third Republic placed a large number of anti-tank mines in Champagne, Aden and Burgundy during this period.

In addition to passive weapons such as landmines, the French also creatively invented another artifact against tanks-the thorn mine known as the onboard happy stick.

This wave is called convergent evolution.

In the South Pacific battlefield of World War II, the Japanese Army often faced the threat of the US Marine Corps or the Army's M4 medium tanks, but obviously Japan did not have tall anti-tank weapons such as the Bazooka.

Therefore, they have used various local methods to deal with the US military for a long time.

For example, anti-tank mines, anti-tank guns, and throwing weapons like the Type 99 magnetic anti-tank mine will be used to destroy the hood of the US tank, or be adsorbed under the tank for detonation.

The Thorn Thunder is one of the best, and it was used until the surrender of the Japanese army in 1945, and later became one of the killers of the Viet Cong.

A stab mine usually consists of a long shaft and a cone-shaped anti-tank mine, which is mounted on one end of the shaft so that it resembles a long gun.

Thunder-throwing operations are generally used for infantry ambushes. Japanese infantry will first ambush and wait for the tank to drive away, then rush to the target, and stab the cone-shaped bomb of the thunder-throwing bomb at the tank to detonate.

Of course, the open plains of France are nothing like the jungle terrain of South Pacific islands and Vietnam.

Ambush tanks are basically impossible.

But the French have the best and cheapest cavalry in the world.

The Berbers from North Africa held thorn mines, like medieval spear knights, and launched a tragic and almost suicidal charge against the Prussian tank group.

Never underestimate the fighting power of the French Foreign Legion.

As in history, they saved Paris once again.

Of course, thanks to the attribute of the "Mole" tank pulling the hips, this thing is not as good as the "Han Qi 01". It makes sense.

For a while, the Franco-Prussian War fell into a state of anxiety.
