Chapter 376 One person, one city(1/2)
The Ming Empire, the waters northeast of Tianjin Port.
A fleet of 23 warships crossed the Goryeo Strait in excitement, preparing to steal the house directly while Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty was in charge of the army.
"What if the Pacific Fleet they sent out was not all their warships?"
Although I already knew that when Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty personally led the expedition, he had already built the naval fleet of the Ming Empire for only a few years, all of which were taken from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean to die.
But because of the previous defeat in the Ming Empire, some people are still very worried.
In the command ship.
The commander of the Tsarist Russian fleet during this military operation couldn't help laughing after hearing this question.
"A whimsical target ship, six battleships, six cruisers, six transport ships, and four small warships that you don't know what to do. Do you tell me they have warships?"
"Where did it come from?"
"The Ming Dynasty Martial Emperor has martial arts, not magic. Only those idiots from the British Empire can do magic. But even if it is magic, can they still directly convert warships? If this is true, we should not think about dominating the world and surrender directly to become a colony of the British Empire, because their magic will transform warships."
"Hahaha……"
These words made the command room laugh, and someone comfortably raised the wine pot in his hand and took a sip of vodka.
No one believed in the navy of the Ming Empire, and there were extra warships.
In fact, when the Ming Navy was first exposed to the world, when it drove into the Pacific Ocean from the Ming Royal Navy military base in Tokyo, it was already shocked by the countries that were spying on intelligence at that time.
They never expected that the Ming Empire, which had only been established for a few years, could have created so many warships while constantly fighting wars.
Not to mention those battleships and cruisers that are not weaker than them in size, even the battleship that everyone considers to be a target ship would require a lot of manpower and material resources to be built.
Even though the Ming Empire had a large population, it was invincible during wars and did not affect the infrastructure construction in the rear because of the war.
But with so many warships already built, how could there be still warships hidden?
This is also one of the main reasons why Tsarist Russia decisively sent troops. Another main reason is that they are very clear about how large the coalition fleet is.
"Even if Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty did not know that the British Empire and us had contacted another fifteen countries to participate in the war. Just calculate the number of warships in the Atlantic War Zone of our Tsarist Russia and the naval strength of the British Empire, he should be very clear about how powerful our coalition is."
After the joke was finished, the commander said seriously: "If they really had warships, they would definitely take them all, because there are no idiots in this world who would think that 23 warships could defeat more than 300 warships."
The person who raised the questions before also agreed with the commander's point of view, which is also the conclusion obtained by Tsarist Russia after obtaining the news.
But there are still some confusion.
"But... Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty is not like an idiot who will die. Why did he do this? And why didn't he beware of us?"
After hearing this question, the commander pondered a little and said, "The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is very superstitious about his own force. Perhaps in his opinion, the naval battle was still decades or even hundreds of years ago. They tried to exert the powerful force possessed by their Ming soldiers through the battle, and then win the war."
"Or it was because he believed too much about the power of the mortars, or had studied other advanced artillery. But these were not important, because quantity was very important in naval battles. More than 300 warships gathered together, even if the artillery was not as advanced as the Ming Empire, he could use the advantage of quantity to win."
"The mortars of the Ming Empire can kill people and sink warships, and our artillery and coalition artillery can do the same."
After pausing, the commander said again: "As for why he is not afraid of us attacking? Haha... He didn't know that we would come at this time. It would take half a month to pass the message from the Ming Empire to reach our Tsarist Russia, and then pass the message to us and let us go, which would take another half a month."
"But he never expected that when he was in charge of the war, we would come here directly with the fleet and complete the combat plan we had already formulated when we announced the response."
"The Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty may have expected that we would steal the house, but he would never have thought that we would steal the house at this time, at least half a month earlier than they had expected. Come and tell me how they should be prepared?"
There was a sound of echoing in the command room, and they liked this combat mission.
"But..." The third question was raised again, and asked: "Even if they expected that we would steal our home in a month, according to our analysis, we would not be able to be on guard against us. In a month, his Ming fleet could not reach the British Empire from Tokyo, and then defeated seventeen countries before returning."
The commander was furious.
"Why do you have so many fucking questions? Just fight it. When you arrive at Tianjin Port, all the artillery will be bombarded directly, and their Tianjin Port will be bombarded into ruins."
The order was issued, and everyone on more than 20 warships took action.
After conveying the order through the flag language, the fleet began to accelerate. They had entered the bay where the Tianjin Port was located and would soon be able to reach the vicinity of the Tianjin Port, which was within the range of their artillery.
However, just when this fleet was extremely excited and thought that they would win the first victory of Tsarist Russia against the Ming Empire, they suddenly discovered that another fleet appeared behind them.
"Hmm? Two warships? Where did the two warships come from?"
"It is the warships of the Ming Empire, and they flew the flag of the Ming Empire."
"Hahaha... they really left two warships, but it doesn't matter. We have 23 ships. Even if their Pacific Fleet comes, our number is the same as theirs. Order all warships to turn and sank them."
The Tsarist Russian fleet did not know that these two warships were actually a fleet.
Shi Dakai, who failed to go to the war with Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty, was actually full of anger. He knew very well what kind of achievements he would have in this expedition, and he also wanted to go to war with His Majesty the Emperor.
Unfortunately, he was the commander of the vanguard army, not the commander of the most elite Royal Guards of the Ming Empire.
Because this time was mainly due to naval battles, even if there was a landing war, it was more suitable for the Royal Guards with extraordinary combat power, so he couldn't go.
So he shamelessly asked for command of two warships.
"Your Majesty is really a god-looking thing. These bastards from Tsarist Russia actually came to steal the house. Haha... Today I will let you never come back."
Shi Dakai, who had been on the warship for more than half a month, has a very deep understanding of the weapon systems of these two battleships.
Moreover, he is also good at water warfare. Before Chen Taiping was able to invade Nanjing, he had the merits of breaking the city through the water.
"General, the enemy has entered our range, with a distance of ten kilometers."
"Don't worry, get closer, otherwise what if they turn around and run away?"
Perhaps because he had fought many battles with Wu Yan, Shi Dakai also developed a habit.
First show the enemy as weak and let the enemy reach a position where they cannot escape, then the entire army will attack.
"General, the enemy is four kilometers away from us."
Shi Dakai nodded and asked, "Can they escape before we can completely wipe out the warship speed?"
Professional questions must be handed over to professionals. This is the teaching of Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty. Although Shi Dakai was one of the few generals of the Ming Dynasty's limited edition, he strictly followed the instructions of Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty and asked the outstanding student 9527 of the Ming Academy of Sciences next to him.
9527 is the first batch of students Anne received, and her level of scientific and technological knowledge has been ahead of this era for at least fifty years.
"General, they can't escape. They can't escape this distance."
"Okay." Shi Dakai waved his hand: "Fire the gun."
...
When the fleet in the Tsarist Russian-Pacific region was wiped out, the news of the British Empire's surrender had been known by the other fifteen countries in the British Empire Alliance.
The leader has surrendered, so what can these younger brothers do?
Even countries like the Ottoman Empire, the French Empire, and the German Empire did not submit much to the British Empire, and at this time they could only choose to go with the flow.
Even though the monarchs of their country may have just received news of the destruction of the coalition fleet due to the limitation of the speed of message transmission, the representatives of the countries in the British Empire still made the decision and chose to participate in the surrender negotiations.
As for negotiation, it can be negotiated.
If the news of the fall of Great Britain and the way of falling were transmitted back to their monarchs, their monarch still did not agree to surrender, and they could not talk about it directly.
If their monarch also wants to surrender, the negotiations they are participating in now will become their merits.
Make a profit without losing money.
However, a surrender negotiation group composed of representatives of sixteen countries, including Tsarist Russia, failed to meet Wu Yan at the first time.
What frightened them was that when the British Empire had surrendered and the Ming Dynasty Emperor Wu had already arrived at Buckingham Mansion, the Ming fleet still did not dock.
What's the meaning?
Then call?
But you always need to log in to supplement some supplies.
Or, are you guarding against the recurrence of the British Empire?
When the delegation was puzzled, Wu Yan was visiting the Meilin family's residence.
They were lucky that during the air strike, no shells fell on their side, or some shells fell over, and were blocked by their magical power.
But they could block the shells, but they could not stop Wu Yan, and captured Wu Yan of Victoria.
"So, you're the only ones left with these magicians?"
Wu Yan frowned and looked at the more than 30 magicians gathered in front of him. Judging from their age, these magicians should have good strength.
After all, the older you are, the more magical energy you accumulate.
But Wu Yan knew very well that these magicians were all garbage, and the magic energy in their bodies was even worse than Juan Fu, except for a great elder who was determined to die.
"Yes, we had a lot of magicians going to the city at that time and then died of accidental injuries by shells."
The elder of the Merlin family expressed his expression calmly when he answered, as if he was telling the truth.
But what he didn't know was that Wu Yan's Emperor Sword Yuanshen had the ability to read other people's memories and thinking.
In the moment when he felt his head bewildered, Wu Yan already knew the truth.
Those talented magicians have been hidden by the Merlin family, and there are also instructions from the British royal family.
Magic is one of their trump card powers, and they don’t want to be exterminated by Wu Yan.
“Okay, very good.”
Wu Yan did not start a massacre because he didn't have so much time to chase and kill the magicians who were already running around.
