Major General Bruce looked at Molière in horror and seemed to have never known him. He had contacted him many times in Paris, and he had bribed the emperor's close ministers.

At that time, Molière gave people the feeling that he was extremely sunny. He was tall and handsome and favored by women wherever he walked. But today, Molière showed everyone a completely different face.

"Enterprise...Secretary Envoy, are you kidding? What is three-day freedom? Are you going to massacre the city?"

"Shut up!" Moliè glanced at the major general with a cold look. "Remember your identity, you are a soldier, and pursuing victory is your job!"

Molière's eyes made Major General Bruce shudder. He wanted to refute something but did not dare to speak at all.

"General... What is the environment of the colony? I think you know better than me. Those obedient natives on the Indian continent may have lost the spirit in the hearts of the soldiers. The victory in Beijing six years ago also relaxed the soldiers' will to fight! And these are all fatal..."

"Countless military strategists have explained that even the weakest enemy, even the power of a lion fighting a rabbit, must use the power of a lion to fight a rabbit to achieve absolute victory. In my Molière dictionary, there is only the word "Socket-free" and no luck!"

Molière stared at Bruce with his eyes tightly, and almost jumped and said, "Don't you think about it? It is precisely because the enemy is so weak that we cannot fail. If we lose to such an enemy, what choices do we have besides committing suicide and apologizing?"

Bruce suddenly realized it. It turned out that the envoy was nervous along the way. "Don't worry, the envoy must be our France... I'm here to resolutely implement your order!"

The major general pulled the boat and shouted at the sailors, "Young men, don't be polite to these savages. Naba port stores a large amount of wealth. Those wealth that breaks through Shuri City are all yours..."

"Long live!" The sailors burst into thunderous roars again, and at that moment the entire fleet was as powerful as a rainbow.

But when everyone was excited and inexplicably excited, Molière always felt empty in his heart. He unconsciously thought of the bloody battle in Besançon on the French-Swiss border, and he always remembered the scene of European news media attacking France in a crazy manner.

"Are these Chinese really that easy to deal with? Maybe? If they are really so easy to deal with, why can they defeat us in France? Why can they make trouble in all the newspapers in Europe?"

Gradually, Molière's face became even more gloomy, and the perverted mood came again.

The atrocities of the French fleet completely shocked Naha Port. Countless observation sentries built on high mountains almost threw their telescopes away, and all kinds of spoken rage were heard.

"Beast! This is simply a beast... What's the ability to massacre ordinary people..."

"Oh... Another fishing boat was smashed to pieces! Look at the French warships are shooting into the sea... Your grandma, even the fishermen who fell into the water will be killed!"

"Send an alarm... to send an emergency alarm to the whole city... It seems that these bastards are going to fight with us. They will never stop until they die. Today they will never stop until they die..."

The sound of the horn of war echoed constantly in the city, and the whole city entered the most urgent state of war. Xiao Letian's new army, temporary reserves, and even the guards composed of countless citizens all raised weapons and walked onto the already built defensive positions.

Soon a group of nervous figures appeared on the top of Shuri Castle. The young King Shangtai and his civil and military ministers finally waited for the most feared moment.

"Report... to Your Majesty... Ten warships flying French flags appeared on the sea in the south... Now, now they are slaughtering fishermen and sailors on the sea!"

"What? Is this a war undeclared? The French are shameless!" Countless civil officials and military generals were so angry that their beards flew up.

At this time, Lin Yuanmiao bit his back teeth and said to Jin Changsen, "Did you see it? These are the French people you want to surrender? You wishfully take the fate of the kingdom on them, but do you see if they take care of you?"

"Kim Changsen! Go surrender, go find these French people to surrender!"

Just as Lin Yuanmiao was angry at Jin Changsen, the surrendered faction, no one expected that Jin Changsen would turn around and stand in front of Lin Yuanmiao without saying a word, and kneel on the ground without saying a word.

"My Jin Changsen lard is shocked... I apologize to you today!" After saying that, his head touched the ground and couldn't afford it for a long time.

Monk Lin Yuanmiao and King of Thailand were stunned. After a little shock, Lin Yuanmiao quickly blushed and pulled him up, "You, you... are you holding my army?"

Jin Changsen looked at King Shangtai and his ministers with a look of grief and anger, "Your Majesty! My colleagues, I, Jin Changsen, did sway from side to side, but my loyalty to the Ryukyu Kingdom is visible! Everything I did is just to extend the country's fortune... Now the French are clearly unreasonable, and they have fought undeclaredly!"

"Since the foreign enemy has blocked the door, I, Jin Changsen, swear here... to fight to the death without retreating!"

"Fight to death and never retreat! Fight to death and never retreat! Fight to death and never retreat!" The monarch and minister on the city wall were already full of anger, and the slogan of declaring war shook the earth.

Even if King Shangtai, Jin Changsen, Lin Yuanmiao and others shouted fiercely, the war still had to be fought by the generals. Now the military power of the Ryukyu Kingdom is controlled by two people, one is the Navy General Cai Mao and the other is the Army General Liang Kun.

Although the Ryukyu Kingdom is an island country, after being exploited by the Shimazu family in Japan for hundreds of years, it was so poor that it could not even afford a few small sampans. This is the blessing of Tosha Lotte. In the past year, I bought some small Western merchant ships and transformed them into a small coast guard with a total tonnage of only more than 700 tons.

The warships transformed with merchant ships have no advantages in addition to being fast and more flexible. In fact, the purpose of Xiao Letian in making such a small guard is just to reserve some sailor seeds for future large warship training.

Now the sailors in Cai Mao's hands are only more than two thousand, and half of these soldiers are on the shore, and the command of all the shore defense turrets of the Ryukyu Kingdom is also in his hands.

"Send a signal to the guards and send flags to ask them to retreat to the reef area in the north... Never contact with France, keep a safe distance of more than ten nautical miles..."

"Send orders to Shuri Fort to prepare for battle. As long as the enemy enters Naha Bay and enters the effective range, I will hit me hard... Tell those American gunners that as long as they fight accurately, I will give them three times the wartime allowance!"

"Immediately notify General Liang Kun and ask him to protect the coastline, especially the rear of the fort, and the French must not land! Our only hope now is the turrets we left behind by Prime Minister!"

Cai Mao rode his war horse and ran wildly on the street. Behind him, the messengers turned their horses and left to pass his orders to every corner of the city.

At this time, under Shuri City, the huge fortress built next to the cliff was exactly what Cai Mao said. A 280-caliber coastal defense cannon built in the United States stood here. In order to protect this cannon, Xiao Letian specially built a permanent reinforced concrete fortification. In order to protect this treasure, the construction cost of the fortification alone cost more than 25,000 silver patterns.

There are ten such turrets in the mountains of Naha Port, but the caliber of other turrets is far less than that of Shuri turret. Among them, 4 shore defense cannons with a caliber of 180, and the remaining five are turrets with a caliber of 120.

But one thing is the same. These cannons are the latest rifled after-loading cannons, and are imported from the United States. In order to buy these cannons, the Carnegie family has made great efforts. According to international practice at that time, the most advanced weapons cannot be bought for non-Western countries.

"Where is Max? Where is the old Max? How are you preparing..." General Cai Mao started yelling loudly as soon as he rushed into the fortification of Shuri Fort.

Old Max is a black man, to be precise, a black artillery soldier who was disbanded from military service after the American Civil War and could not survive. If we follow the original version of history, the end of this black man who has no skills after the war ended, and the final outcome would be to wander on the streets and become an alcoholic.

But Xiao Letian gave them new opportunities, and the doors of the New Army and the Industrial Zone were completely opened to the black Americans. Here, Xiao Letian gave not only three times the salary in the United States, but also the most important thing was dignity.

"Oh, dear general, please believe in my professionalism. As long as you can ensure that the turret is not surrounded by the enemy's army, as long as you can ensure that there is enough ammunition, then I can let these French people taste what it feels like to fail!"

"Good! I believe you, from now on, I will command the battle here. I will serve as a guard for you personally. If the enemy dares to rush up, they will step on my body first!"

Yuanfa Chinese fleets were getting closer and closer. During the time when Naha was preparing for the war, ten warships had cleared the entire sea area, and the murderous warships had pressed against the coast to a distance of only five nautical miles from the beach.

At this moment, people's eyes suddenly lit up. The French warships on the distant sea trembled their bodies. The Glory's starboard seventy cannons, plus the other two frigates' sixty cannons, fired a standard volley.

Boom boom boom... The rain of bullets fired by more than one hundred artillery instantly covered the lookout post on the mountain peak on the south side of the port. A squad's troops and wooden towers were instantly covered by the sea of ​​fire, and the top of the mountain was blown into a sea of ​​fire.

"Oh no! There are rifled guns in the French fleet! This is an upgraded fleet, otherwise it would not have been possible to hit so far, and it would have been so accurate!" Old Max discovered something bad just by just aiming at the shooting distance.

"Damn it, damn it! The commander of this fleet seems to be an expert? General Cai... Please inform General Liang quickly. This fleet has a very unusual origin. Their tactics are very avant-garde. You must be careful of the rear!"
