Chapter 822: The Royal Navy of Country Y
Dean, although country F agreed to our request to enter the port, it directly rejected our application for exchange, and most importantly, the national security department of country F also asked us to leave as early as possible......"
After hearing Feng Yukun's words, Wang Sanpang shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed expression.
"This is something I expected, you know, our brothers in country F are now in dire straits, it's strange that our application can be agreed, anyway, we're just trying, if you don't agree, forget it, let the students not go out these days, just stay on the ship, and we'll leave after the logistics are replenished!"
Wang Sanpang is also worried that if he continues to stay here, he will be affected, you know, the current domestic conflict in country F is not only a matter of fuel tax, the conflict between the two sides has been irreconcilable after such a long time, and the people of country F seem to have been dissatisfied with the government's approach for a long time, this time it is just taking advantage of this opportunity to vent it all, and the most important thing is that in recent days, the government of country F has retreated at the same time, They also arrested what they believed to be the leader of the Yellow Vest movement, a truck driver in country F, and if nothing else, the truck driver could face more than 40 years in prison.
The actions of the government of country F completely angered the people of country F, who were already in anger, and the people of country F thought that the government of country F was deceiving them by regressing, otherwise why would the government arrest the truck driver?
Wang Sanpang doesn't know how the staff of these departments in country F do things, and now is the time when the contradictions between the two sides are the most conflicting, but at this time they start arresting people, I'm afraid this is adding fuel to the fire, do you think that country F is not enough to make trouble during this time, and you still want to add fuel to the fire?
……
When leaving country F, Wang Sanpang received the latest information, and the government of country F recognized it, first the president admitted on the news that his approach was indeed inappropriate, and in addition, the prime minister of country F also directly admitted his mistake in the media.
It's just surprising that whether it is the president or the prime minister standing up to admit their mistakes, these yellow vests have no sign of giving up, and the streets of country F are still full of protesters wearing yellow vests protesting, and even many luxury stores and museums in country F have announced temporary closures, and it is estimated that they will not continue to operate until the situation calms down.
These have nothing to do with Wang Sanpang and his students, this trip to country F is probably the most regrettable thing is that there is no way to let these overseas Chinese living in country F see their Chinese troops, there was originally such an arrangement, but in consideration of security issues, in the end this visit was canceled, no one knows if anything unexpected will happen at that time.
The third stop of this trip was country Y, which is in the same Europe as country F, although country Y's presence seems to have become very weak after World War I, and the most famous thing is not their troops, but the amazing sotch skirt, and the same-sex problem in country Y.
However, before World War I, country Y was known as the empire on which the sun never sets, and many people are curious about why country Y can be called the empire on which the sun never sets. Country Y's colonies are spread to almost all continents in the world, so it is known as the "empire on which the sun never sets".
From the middle of the 17th century to the 19th century, it was the "golden age" of country Y. At that time, there were about 400 million to 500 million people in the world, and about a quarter of the population were the "people" of the territory of the Great Y Empire; One fifth of the world's total land area, about 30 million square kilometers of land, was the territory of the Great Y Empire. By the time of the First World War in 1914, the colonies under the jurisdiction of Country Y were more than 140 times the size of its own territory, making it the largest colonial power in the world.
Speaking of the navy of country Y, the royal navy of country Y is the navy with the longest history and the most brilliant record in the world, and there is almost no one. In history, the Royal Navy of Country Y, although it has suffered occasional losses, is still strictly speaking a navy that has never been defeated.
Over the past 300 years, this navy has swept every sea area in the world, knocked on the doors of one country after another with artillery, conquered one colony after another, and established the unprecedented Great Y Empire on earth. In a sense, the structure of today's world, its laws, its politics, and its liberal democratic traditions are to a large extent due to this navy.
After the Napoleonic Wars, the navy of country Y completely achieved maritime supremacy and became the world's "maritime hegemon".
During the period from 1815 to 1885, the naval strength of country Y was equal to that of "the other three or four naval powers combined", and it was in a position of no challenge.
For example, in the 50s of the 19th century, the navy of country Y had 800 naval guns in the Mediterranean, 1,000 in the Atlantic, and 300 in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, which exceeded the total number of navies of the European continent, and in 1870, the naval military expenditure of country Y reached 9.8 million Y pounds, while the naval military expenditure of several other most powerful countries was only 12.82 million Y pounds.
In 1904, the total number of ships in the navy of country Y had exceeded 600, and the main combat force was concentrated in the Mediterranean, with a total of 12 battleships, most of which were newly commissioned ships.
In addition, there was a native fleet of 8 battleships and a strait fleet of 8 battleships in the native waters. And in the Far East, a fleet of 5 battleships was maintained.
From 1906 to 1913, the Royal Navy built a total of 31 dreadnoughts, among them, the "Queen Elizabeth class" battleships that began construction in 1912 were the first batch of battleships equipped with 380 mm guns and fuel engines.
By 1918, the number of ships in the navy of country Y had reached a record 807, including 4 aircraft carriers, 70 battleships and amphibious warships, 143 cruisers, 443 destroyers and frigates, and 147 submarines, which was 25 times the number of ships in the navy of country Y today.
Then after the baptism of World War I and World War II, the royal fleet of the empire that dominated the sea has gone to the twilight of the gods, and since 1950, the number of the royal navy of country Y has been declining, and it is unable to rebound at all.
