Uncle Than Qigu is Forever Young

Because of the colonies it occupied all over the world, the British Empire has always attached great importance to naval construction, even in the previous era of arms control.

The British Empire established four major marine schools: the mainland, the Mediterranean, the Far East, and the Americas. This is a common practice in the age of arms control. It is not an exaggeration to regard it as the four major fleets.

Of course, it will take a long time to switch from the original paramilitary fleet to the standing fleet.

It is also necessary to carry out combat adjustments of ships so as to supplement new ships to improve combat effectiveness.

As several major powers from the Far East to the Americas and then to Western Europe successively announced or actually abandoned the arms control treaties stretching over half of the world, the British Empire also announced on the same day that the "High Seas Fleet" was being rebuilt. The regular military establishment of the surface fleet was rebuilt.

The pointer of the times has been moved mercilessly, and the vast majority of people who have witnessed the times unintentionally are often ignorant and convinced that tomorrow will continue for no reason.

However, there are also people who are sober. According to later records, on November 11st, Earl Spencer, the ambassador to Japan who boarded the battleship of the Far East Fleet Counterattack, which underwent modernization, looked at the shining night of the motherland and uttered a famous saying : "The lights are going out all over Europe, and we may never see them lit again in our lifetime."

"Don't worry, my friend. Until the last Indian dies for the empire, the light of this civilization will never go out." There is no record in history. At that time, Earl Spencer's relatives, childhood friends, tablemates at Eton College, Cambridge University Said Robert Churchill, 11th Duke of Marlborough, his roommate and then Lord of the Admiralty.

Ambassador Spencer holds the title of Earl of Sunderland in the British Empire, and the two families are very close relatives.

"I hope so..." Although Mr. Spencer, who has received many new ideas, did not take this sentence very seriously to his friend, but he would not sweep the other party's face.

At the level of two people, many things can be felt without being too clear like they are said to ordinary people.

The huge fleet of the British Empire has come to the era of anchoring expeditions again, maybe next year, or the year after, or the year after the year after, or maybe decades...

Ambassador Spencer was actually a little surprised that his friend greeted him with the respect of the Secretary of the Navy, and he was also a little moved after the surprise.

Because of his wife, he has stayed in Japan for more than ten years, and he has repeatedly extended his status as ambassador to Japan through his family connections, which is quite surprising.As the head of the Spencer family, the Earl of Sunderland of the British Empire, being the ambassador to Japan is a bit overqualified.

Even brushing the qualifications is a bit too much.

More than ten years ago, Ambassador Spencer really only planned to get two or three years of qualifications before returning to China to participate in politics. He knew that he had met the beautiful Japanese girl he was destined for.

For so many years, those who didn't know that he was in love with his beloved wife thought that the Spencer family had been deposed and would withdraw from the political arena of the empire.

The Secretary of the Navy, the Duke of Marlborough in this life Robert led his old friend who had not seen him for many years down the gangway. He did not let out a sigh of relief until the two entered a luxurious black car with respect and courtesy. Authentic: "How magical is that island country in the east? It has allowed our Ambassador, Mr. Spencer, to stay for so many years. If you hadn't been nominated as the next Governor of India this time, it must be rare to return home."

After a pause, the Secretary of the Navy, who was over 40, said with a bit of yin and yang: "Is this Japanese woman so nice? Are you planning to introduce me this time?"

Speaking of which, the two of them have been friends since childhood, and they were even closer in middle school. They even looked down on Yingying and Yanyan's women, and they had a lot of fun. .

As for the British, everyone knows that who hasn't made mistakes when they were young.

"That... Sayuri doesn't like taking boats very much, let's do it next time! Definitely next time!"

Mr. Spencer was also a little embarrassed to be scolded by his friends, and felt alienated from his old friends from the motherland, so he explained.

In fact, he really wanted to come back with his wife.

But his wife's nerdy nature is too strong, she is a nerd to the bone, and she doesn't like to travel so far by boat or airship, so she has no choice but to let her go.

"Hehe," the Secretary of the Navy shook his head with a strange expression, as if he felt that Japanese women were not good enough for his friends or something else, so he decided to move on to the next topic that he had already prepared.

"Speaking of which, your daughter is quite like us British... Oh, she is British! Has there ever been any marriage contract?"

"Yinglili? No, why did you suddenly ask this?" Ambassador Spencer was confused by his friend's jumpy words, but his father's intuition woke him up in the next second, and he subconsciously replied Said, "It won't be..."

"That's right! I have a lot of marine schools in my hand! No, it's already the Royal Navy! In short, there are many young talents of the Royal Navy. Do you want..."

The overcompetent Secretary of the Navy was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"My family, Ying Lili, has just entered college and is still young."

"It's not young. I also know that young people's thinking is not like ours, especially your daughter. But there is no harm in seeing it! Those young talents in the Royal Navy have a bright future, and maybe there will be more in the future." There is a chance to flex your muscles."

Because his friend was too enthusiastic, Mr. Spencer couldn't refuse, and he felt guilty for not seeing him for many years, so he agreed to it without checking for a while.

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he regretted a little, fearing that his daughter would react violently, so he made an excuse and said: "It's a pity that we can't arrange the meeting for a while, my family, Ying Lili, is seasick again, and I just studied at Gakushuin University in Japan this year, and my studies are not good." Too much delay."

"It's all trivial. I think about it... Captain Cunningham serving in the Far East Fleet is the most outstanding graduate of the Portsmouth Ocean College in the last session. I will go back and arrange a sufficient vacation for him I have a good impression of him, this is a very nice young man! Knowledgeable, active thinking, very popular with girls."

Chapter 397 Different actors in the same dress

Although as a junior historian, Hikigu is also very interested in the ups and downs of the world situation, and even earnestly completes a draft for the Army Education Director's Department every month, but he has to be like most ordinary people. Pay more attention to the hustle and bustle of life.

There is too little time for thinking about problems and doing research, which is one of the reasons why he is very interested in the recruitment of the National Railway Investigation Department recommended by Nana Iida.

The longer you stay in this world, the more interested you will be. Asking is Liangping's habit of seeking knowledge.

Liangping has long passed the age when the keyboard ruled the roost in the previous world.

Instead of competing on the keyboard, he prefers to do some practical things on the street, just like Ichinose Hoonami did before.

That's why he was so kind when he saw that lovely girl.

Tsk tsk, it's like her own daughter, it's not an exaggeration.

To be honest, seeing such a young man full of ideals and full of action, Liang Ping was quite conflicted. He wanted to have a good chat with her to impart knowledge and experience so that she could help more people; But I was afraid of leading a girl with a bright future to a road full of thorns.

Things that are friendly to the public may not be to individuals, so people need someone to help them speak out and take action to achieve their goals.

Or maybe, any cause worth dedicating to can succeed only after sacrificing many, many of the best sons and daughters...

Sighing, Hikigani Ryohei came downstairs to Touma Kazusa's apartment.

"Hello, are you there? I'm taking the kids home today. I've been working hard on you lately."

Of course he was taking the children home today, and he called the woman as soon as he arrived at Liangping downstairs.

Recently, it seems that these children are not very comfortable living in their mother's house.
