Red Alert 1895

Popular recommendation:,,,,,,,

Soon, the British immediately ordered the Chinese fleet to send ships to deter Taiwan, and then asked Taiwan to hand over the criminal Philip. And they sent a telegram to the British Chinese Fleet, but the commander of the Chinese Fleet almost fainted immediately after seeing the news.

"Bastard, those domestic politicians really think too simple. Let our Chinese fleet deter Taiwan? Our Chinese fleet is not enough for people to bite their teeth!" The commander of the Chinese fleet shouted immediately.

There are currently ten fleets in the UK, starting from the Atlantic Fleet and the Mediterranean Fleet, all the way to the tenth-ranked Chinese Fleet. And the rankings of these fleets also show the strength of the British fleet. The Atlantic Fleet is the strongest, followed by the Mediterranean Fleet, and the Chinese Fleet is the weakest. The nominal establishment of the Chinese fleet should actually be led by a senior general, after all, it is also one of the "Top Ten" fleets. It is very rare to be led by a lieutenant general, and most of the time it is even led by a major general. Under such circumstances, it is conceivable that the strength of the Chinese fleet is weak. That's why the commander of the Chinese fleet scolded the domestic politicians for issuing such absurd orders. As the closest party to the strength of the Taiwan fleet, can the commander of the Chinese fleet not know? They have personal experience. Not only is the total tonnage ranked among the top in the world, but there are even several battleships. Currently known battleships also have three Sovereign-class battleships, this is the most advanced battleship in Britain! And even if three ships are given to the Netherlands, there are still three ships, which are definitely the first-class overlords in Asia.

As for the Chinese fleet in the UK, its strength is weak, and their warships are all warships after the elimination of the major fleets. This is just like the time when China was in trouble, when the elder wears a piece of clothing for the second, and the second wears for the third, until the clothes are completely rotten. The same is true for the British, the most advanced warships are given priority to equip the Atlantic Fleet and the Mediterranean Fleet. Then those warships that were phased out were also thrown to other fleets, and then some warships were even "four-handed" warships. This kind of "four-handed" warship can deter Taiwan, which is simply out of my mind.

But the orders from above cannot be ignored, so they can only deal with business affairs. The British sent an old-fashioned cruiser with a tonnage of more than 2,000 tons to the vicinity of Taiwan. Then hope wants to "deter" Taiwan. However, scolding him soon encountered a particularly huge warship.

"Captain, there is a huge warship ahead with a yellow tiger flag on a blue background. It should be a warship from Taiwan." Immediately, a British soldier said.

The British captain saw this scene, and immediately said: "The displacement of this warship is about 20,000 tons. It is ten times that of ours! However, this warship seems very unfamiliar to us, and we seem to have never seen it before." This warship! Shouldn’t Taiwan use the Sovereign-class battleship designed by our British Empire as the main warship? Why do they have a new type of battleship? It seems that we have never seen this kind of battleship before!”

But the British captain was very curious about it, and he planned to go up and have a look. And he quickly ordered his cruisers to move forward, and then hoped to see this new Chinese warship. And he has an idea, that is, if he can see the information of this new type of warship, he may be able to get a very huge harvest.

However, at the same time, Taiwan's warships also found them.

"Captain Chen Fa, there is a British warship sailing towards us ahead. They seem to want to approach us!" Someone said immediately.

Chen Fa couldn't help frowning when he saw this scene. And of course he knows that the relationship between Taiwan and the British is not good at present. Because of the trial the day before yesterday, the British hated Taiwan very much, so they also hated it very much. But now they don't know what's going on, they actually came from there, and even sent a warship to "deter" Taiwan? Let's not talk about whether it will be successful or not, let's just say that the battleship under my feet is a sword-class battleship with a tonnage of 20,000 tons, while the opponent is just an old-fashioned cruiser with a tonnage of about 2,000 tons. In front of me, it is like the difference between a mouse and an elephant. A mouse trying to deter an elephant is driving them crazy. Therefore, Chen Fa did not intend to ignore them.

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa!"

The British warships began to fire, but this was not a combat artillery. It's an ordinary salute, not lethal. According to international practice, when the navies of the two sides meet, they should fire a seven-round salute. If it is a meeting of higher-level officials, the number of salutes will be more. And the Chinese battleship Xuanyuan also heard the sound of this salute, and according to the usual practice, they all returned the salute to the other party.

"We all return seven salutes!" Chen Fa said.

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa!"

The battleship Xuanyuan also fired seven salutes, but what happened afterwards made the people on the battleship Xuanyuan very angry.

"Captain, the other party's semaphore asked us to fire another 14 salutes, a total of 21 salutes! This is a British rule, and we must abide by it." Said the semaphore soldier.

According to the rules set by the British, whenever a British warship meets a foreign warship, the British fleet fires a seven-round salute, and the other party must return a twenty-one salute. This is considered respect for the United Kingdom. Because in the eyes of the British, weak countries have no right to enjoy the same treatment as the UK. Therefore, every time the British warship fired a shell, the opponent had to return three shells, and if the British warship fired seven shells, the opponent had to fire 21 shells to be regarded as respect for Britain.

These Taiwanese sailors were born in the Beiyang Navy, and many generals of the Beiyang Navy also came back from studying in the UK, so they naturally know the brigand rules of the British. The British are so conceited, they look down on foreign countries. And until they became weak in the future, they also stubbornly followed this rule until the end of World War II. But at that time, few countries in the world took them seriously, and their so-called rule of hitting once and three times became a joke, even people from weak countries could not abide by it. In the end, the British couldn't be ashamed, so they all played 21 rounds together, so that the two sides could be regarded as equal contacts. However, the British in this era are still very bandit-minded. They think that they have fired seven salutes, and the other party must return 21 rounds.

Chen Fa immediately said: "Tell them, do you want 21 rounds of salute, we can fire seven rounds is not bad!"

The semaphore soldier quickly replied: "Captain, the British on the other side replied that this is a British rule, and any country must abide by it. Therefore, they ordered us to fire another fourteen rounds of salute, otherwise they would be contemptuous of their British Empire. That is to say, it is very unfriendly behavior towards them.”

"Haha, want a salute? Well, I'll give you a heavy 'salute'. Give me a high-explosive bomb!" Chen Fa said.

But someone reminded him immediately: "Captain, are we going to go to war against the British? If we fire first, then we have no reason."

"Haha, what's unreasonable? If we win, it's also reasonable. If we lose, then what's reasonable becomes unreasonable. Therefore, big fists are the last word. So we just need to keep this as it is." The British warship was sunk, and there will be no evidence of death at that time. If we all don’t say anything, who can do anything to us? Besides, such a living target is in front of everyone. Of course, we must cherish the opportunity the British gave us! "Chen Fa said.

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but lament that Chen Fa was so ruthless that he wanted to completely destroy this British warship directly. As long as all the British are dead, no one has any evidence. At that point, does it matter who fires first?

"However, it's better to ask Mr. Wang for instructions. Now that there is a radio, it's not an era where the king's orders will not be accepted." Someone said immediately.

Now with wireless telegraphy, the communication between the front and the rear is much easier~www.readwn.com~So everyone can communicate easily. The ancient saying that you will not be affected by the fate of the king outside the country is actually communication. question. However, if the communication ability is strengthened, according to this kind of thing, the superior should be consulted. If he went to war against foreign troops without consulting his superiors, that would be an out-and-out defeat. What would Wang Guorui think then? Therefore, it is very important to ask for instructions if necessary. If you don't ask for instructions, it will definitely not work.

"Thank you for your reminder, otherwise I'm afraid it will really be over. At that time, not only is it not a military exploit, but a crime, at least the future will be ruined." Chen Fa said.

Soon, Chen Fa sent a telegram to Wang Guorui's emergency room. And this is a double-encrypted telegram, and only Tan Ya can decipher this telegram. And the rule of using this password is that it must never be used without authorization. Only extremely important, urgent and confidential matters can use this frequency, and let Tanya translate this message in person. However, it is definitely one of the most important things to take the initiative to fire on the British warship, so Chen Fa must ask Wang Guorui for instructions.

"Captain Chen Fa, there is a telegram from the Governor's Mansion in our telegraph machine.

"Okay, reload me right away, I want to vote for them!" Chen Fa said. (To be continued.)
