Chapter 859: The Launching of a New Ship Each has his own thoughts
c_t; Zhang Yi and the others finished handling everything and began to sit and wait for the ceremony to come. [Ran^Text^Library] [774] [buy], the latest chapter access:.
In two days, envoys and reporters from various countries flocked to Beijing and Shanghai, and in a short period of time, there were already 40 or 50 ministers and consuls from various countries in Jinzhou, and as for media reporters, there were 50 or 60 people!
The ceremony is finally here!
In order to welcome the arrival of this scene, the Jinzhou Municipal Hall and the Fengtian Provincial Government Fu have made all-round preparations!
The dock of the shipyard of the shipyard group was full of envoys and reporters from various countries, waiting one by one to see what the warships produced by the Republic of China were like.
For this moment, Zhang Yi ordered to prepare twenty salutes for the celebration of the launching ceremony.
Liu Buyun, commander-in-chief of the Navy of the Republic of China, personally stepped to the front desk and announced loudly: "On behalf of the Republic of China, I would like to announce that the first battleship Zheng He, which is produced by us, has been completed and officially launched!" ”
As Liu Buyun's high-pitched and powerful voice sounded, twenty salutes resounded in the sky one after another, and Zheng He's slowly drove into the water, towering forts, wide decks, thick armor, and the most shocking thing was the four 'doors' of 305 mm Krupp heavy guns! The muzzle of the black 'hole' and 'hole' seems to be devoured at any time, giving people a chilling feeling!
Zhang Yi personally ordered: "Order, the gunner starts to '' the gun, in the direction of eleven o'clock in the southeast, at a distance of three thousand meters, the target, the unknown warship, four consecutive 'shots', 'shoot' and 'shoot'!" ”
This was Zheng He's first 'shooting' attack, the four gunners on the ship, and the eight surveyors nervously began to 'operate', these dozen crew members were temporarily 'pumped' from the Zhenyuan ship 'elite' sharp forces, after intense adjustment and design Zhu Yuan, four shells accompanied by a deafening 'desire' cannon sound, towards the intended target 'fire'!
Boom!
Four dull explosions were heard in the distance, and huge 'waves' were lifted from the sea!
That abandoned merchant ship was broken into two pieces in an instant and sank to the bottom of the sea!
Accurate!
Zhang Yi, Xu Huaijin and others, as well as envoys and military attaches from various countries watched with binoculars in their hands, and in just two or three minutes, a sailor ran in front of Zhang Yi and said: "Report to the president, the ship monitoring from afar, the flag is called, Zheng He's four shells accurately hit the target, the target has sunk to the bottom of the sea, and the 'shooting' drill is successful!" ”
Zhang Yi laughed, stood up from his seat, and shouted, "Good, good! This is the great news of our Republic of China, which is worthy of our national celebration, and the order is to open a banquet in the Jinzhou City Hall to invite envoys and VIPs from all countries to celebrate! ”
The envoys of the surrounding countries had different faces, each with their own thoughts. [ ]
At this time, the most resentful is Britain, as the most powerful naval power, to see the Chinese themselves build a powerful warship, for him, it is like swallowing a fly, disgusting to death! Although China still looks very weak now, it can't help but be born with good conditions, tens of millions of square kilometers of land, vast land, 450 million people, as long as one-tenth of them become talents, it is more than the population of England! If this is allowed to continue to develop, it is definitely not a dream to surpass the British Empire!
"We must not sit idly by and watch the Republic of China develop like this, absolutely not!"
British Minister Sadao thought viciously in his heart.
As for the Germans, they are the happiest, their allies are getting stronger and stronger, which means that the pressure on them will be less and less, so why not?
"This Chinese tiger is really not simple, from grenades to submachine guns, to mortars, aircraft, and now to warships, since the emergence of the Chinese tiger, the whole of China has undergone earth-shaking changes! To be able to get this strong reinforcement, I have to say that Germany is lucky! ”
The German minister, Kriefin, thought happily, but if the Chinese tiger was willing to transfer the technical patent of the aircraft, that would be the best, but how could the country's heavy weapon be easily revealed, alas, next, let's continue to discuss.
But it was the Russians and the Japanese who felt the panic, and the Russians were afraid because in the future they would not only face the military threat from Germany, but also in the Far East in the future, they would also face the military threat from a powerful opponent, the Republic of China! Not only from land, but also from the sea, even if Vladivostok and the Pacific Fleet are rebuilt again, facing the navy of the Republic of China, they can't help but feel strong pressure!
However, if Tsarist Russia was just panicking, at this time, the Japanese Minister Matsushita Jiro felt a strong fear in his heart, right! It's intense fear!
Today, the army of the Republic of China has completed the comprehensive surpassing of Japan, and now the Republic of China has developed and produced such advanced warships, and it will be certain that it will surpass Japan in the next ten years! What to do? Could it be that the Japanese Empire will live under the shadow of the Chinese for hundreds of years? How painful that would be!
Matsushita Jiro is now feeling how uncomfortable it is, how uncomfortable it is, this news should be reported to the military department as soon as possible, the combat power of this battleship is too strong, although the number of their guns is not much, but the armor and speed make this battleship enough to remain undefeated in the future naval battle with Japan!
I hope that the military department can formulate countermeasures to deal with the Republic of China as soon as possible, otherwise, in the future, there will not be any good life for our empire, but we have been wreaking havoc on the southeast coast since hundreds of years ago, I don't know how many Chinese died under the saber of the Japanese, if the Chinese want to retaliate, then the empire will be really dangerous!
Matsushita Jiro thought bitterly in his heart.
At this time, Zhang Yi was on the battleship, accepting interviews and reports from reporters from all over the world, and cameras were filming the majestic posture of the battleship on the side, and Zhang Yi's majestic voice resounded in front of the reporters.
But the envoys of various countries did not listen much.
The envoys with all their hearts congratulated the achievements of the Republic of China, followed the military and political dignitaries of the Republic of China into the Jinzhou City Hall, and began to enjoy the banquet!
At this time, telegrams have begun to shoot out frantically towards various countries! This will be the headliner of newspapers around the world tomorrow! The Republic of China actually developed and produced the world's most advanced warships! Its combat power is not inferior to the 'color' and the Western powers!
China was surprised by the appearance of warships, and the heroes woke up!
The giant ship is launched, and the East is changing dramatically!
China's tiger is full of spirit, chasing Europe and catching up with the United States!
A shocking news headline was drawn up in an instant, and it will definitely shock people's hearts!
However, this is all tomorrow's business, today, destined to spend a sleepless night of military and political dignitaries in the Republic of China, the grand celebration dinner, which lasted until late at night, the commander Zhang Yihu is holding a wine bowl, and everyone is going to drink a sip, which is extremely heroic!
