On 15 April, six Prussian warships in the harbor of Hamburg sailed out to sea under the banner of ocean-going training, and the crowd on the pier cheered and cheered.

In Prussia, such scenes were rare, and the reason was simple, because Prussia never had a real navy, and its limited fleet of ships was used as a coast guard to deal with pirates and smugglers in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea.

By the time of the Prussian-Danish War in 1864, Denmark used its relatively strong naval power to blockade almost all of Prussia's northern seas, causing serious losses to Prussia's commercial trade, despite the fact that the powerful Prussian army was victorious on land.

After the war, the Prussians began to build a navy, but until the Franco-Prussian War, the Prussian navy was still a small coast guard, let alone competing with Britain and France, even the Netherlands.

It is true that such a navy rarely has the opportunity to train in the ocean, so this expedition of the navy is very important to the families of those sailors, and the port of Hamburg is naturally thunderous.

Such a grand sailing ceremony naturally could not escape the eyes of spies of other countries, and when the six warships had just sailed into the open sea, the British fleet appeared in the north.

The Royal Navy followed the Prussian Navy like a shoehoe, and relations between Britain and Prussia were still very good at that time, so no one would think that the British Navy would take the initiative to attack them.

As the fleet went south, the more British ships watched over them, and by the time the fleet was about to reach the Strait of Dover, the number of British fleets outflanked in the north would have reached twelve, and the distance between the warships was still very long, and it was obvious that Prussia was afraid that Prussia would secretly send warships around the British Isles to send Prince Leop to Spain.

The Strait of Dover was full of the main warships of the French Navy, the white sails were overwhelming, all the battleships had their guns wide open, and the black holes of their guns were aimed at the poor Prussian fleet.

The flag ordered the Prussian fleet to stop immediately for inspection, and the domineering attitude gave the impression that the two countries were at war. The Prussians had just defeated the old power Austria, and now the morale of the army was at the highest point in history, and the nation itself was very proud, even if there was a hundredfold difference in strength between us and the enemy, they would not back down.

The six battleships quickly flanked to meet the enemy, and their guns were unanimously aimed at the French battleships, and the momentum of the battle was not weaker than that of the French fleet.

The French certainly did not dare to open fire, their purpose was to prevent Prince Leop from going to Spain, and the British did not want to see Leop become the king of Spain, so that Prussia would become an army power to contain France and Russia, which was the wishful thinking of the British.

Since Britain and France were fighting the small calculation of interests, then the war could not be fought, and Prussia, like a trapped beast surrounded by a besieged beast, staged a generous tragedy in the Strait of Dover.

The photographers accompanying the army took a large number of tragic photos, and the Prussian naval officers and men, who were surrounded by heavy troops, showed a senseless fighting spirit, and obviously relied on artillery to bombard each other, but everyone actually carried rifles with bayonets.

This is also a trick of the media war with Xiao Letian, in this outnumbered situation, it is necessary to show the Prussians who are bullied and then brave and unyielding.

It's okay to wrap two circles of gauze on your head, and you are not afraid of dirty uniforms, and your eyes must be sharp. Yes, yes, the one next to me who copied the stool legs, stand up, I'll give you a big close-up, and the eyes should be aggrieved with three points of strength inside, it's great, just this posture!

The six Prussian warships completely posed a hypothesis of a dead end, and even the cooks on the warships stood on the deck with boning knives, and the background of the photo was the boundless Anglo-French warships.

The tougher the Prussian side, the more Britain and France sat on the wax, and now they didn't even dare to force the ship to board the ship, let alone open fire, and if it really caused a bloody conflict, then the diplomatic dispute caused would be too unfavorable.

When the stalemate passed for 12 hours, more and more merchant ships on the sea were blocked, forcing Britain and France to open an opening for these merchant ships to pass through.

The merchant ships that passed through the center of the battlefield all looked stupid, and the two old European powers bullied an emerging power, which made sense, so quickly shut up and speed out of here, and be careful of misfire.

From this moment on, the news could not be blocked, and the news that the Prussian warship was trapped in the Strait of Dover that evening spread throughout Europe.

Public opinion was in an uproar, and the British and French ambassadors were summoned overnight, and the angry roar shook the guards outside the mansion and heard it clearly. All the printing houses in Berlin and Hamburg were printing in the printing booths, and the next morning all the streets and alleys of all Prussian towns were full of newsboys spreading the bombshell news.

The Prussian people were outraged, and they were provoked by the enemy, especially the French, who were actually trying to search for warships! Don't you know that warships are a country's floating territory? This is a declaration of war, this is a declaration of war against Prussia!

Protests resounded in every Prussian city, governments were seriously concerned about the incident, diplomats' holidays were over, and negotiations were raging.

And just as the number spread throughout Europe, the Baltic and North Seas were really as foggy as Prussian meteorologists had predicted, and without any farewell ceremony, the floodgates of the Volkeng shipyard were opened, and the Zhiyuan finally embarked on the distant road home.

In the morning when the fog was thick in Szczecin, there were only a few old men fishing on both sides of the Oder, and the fish that had just been caught suddenly fled, and a huge shadow of a boat suddenly appeared in the middle of the thick fog of the river.

The old men had never seen a bow like that, like a golden dragon, but it had no wings at all. The big black ship tore through the fog and headed out to sea, and a faint smell of smoke and dust filled the air.

Leaving their fishing rods, the people scattered for fear that the monsters on the river would attack them. In the fog, the monster's body seemed to have no end, and it kept moving forward and continued until it disappeared in the direction of the mouth of the sea.

The flashing orange light signal entering the Baltic Sea quickly allowed the five clippers to find the location of the Zhiyuan, and the fleet lined up in a long line and quietly sailed towards Danish waters.

Kevin and Xiang Ying stood in the command cabin, both of them raised their throats in their hearts, now is the most dangerous moment, the waters of the Baltic Sea to the North Sea are all controlled by Denmark, a Prussian-Danish war has brought the relationship between the two countries to a freezing point, if the trace of the Zhiyuan is found, the Danish side will definitely send warships to intercept it.

"What are you going to do?" Kevin asked, looking at Xiang Ying.

Xiang Ying's expression was a little hideous at this moment, and he was a little hideous......: "What should I do? Just sink them!"
