"Fake a fart! It's my son on that big ship, and if they do fire a cannon, then we'll run, and I'll never give birth to this son. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info "Hong Tao just wanted to show his strength, and he didn't want to cause any misunderstanding, so he didn't take off the gun jackets of the ten Virginia-class ships.

"Okay, let's take it as a drill, let you see if I've regressed over the years! Command, raise the bottom sail, keep up with the flagship, and get ready for high-speed maneuvering! Wu Yong also has a feeling that the older he gets, the more rampant he feels, facing his juniors, everyone is a peer, and the comprehensive combat effectiveness is stronger than one to one, which is a very boring and dangerous thing in the eyes of outsiders, in his opinion, it is a very meaningful thing, this is called momentum!

Under Wu Yong's command, the speed of the ten Virginia-class battleships suddenly increased slightly, and then they turned sharply to the south and slanted towards the southeast.

The shield formation of the Golden River Empire's royal fleet consisted of three fleets, one on the front and two others on the north and south. Don't look at the appearance of these warships, you can't see any difference in the eyes of outsiders, but in the eyes of insiders, especially those who know the structure of the Royal Navy, these three fleets are still very different.

The fleet of more than 20 warships in the east belonged to the empire itself, and they had the highest level of training, and the ships were basically old sailors and commanders with combat experience. The flotilla of more than a dozen warships to the north came from the port of Calamba, and compared to the Empire's native fleet, their personnel quality and training level were a little different. The situation of the fleet to the south was even worse, it was from the Cape Town garrison fleet, and the officers and sailors were mainly locals, and they did not have much actual combat experience.

Of course, there is also personnel exchange between several standing fleets of the Royal Navy, and this gap is not very large, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is equal to none. But the master's tricks are often a little bit worse, and Wu Yong is now clearly going to bully people, taking advantage of the speed and steering advantage of the Virginia-class, and eating this fleet from the port of Cape Town.

Finding that Hong Tao's fleet suddenly turned, the Royal Navy was not slow to react, especially the home fleet in the middle, which immediately realized that there was a loophole between itself and the southern fleet, and also reacted quickly, and all turned around, turning 90 degrees to the left from the southeast to the northwest, trying to make up for this loophole.

It's a pity that they didn't expect the Virginia-class steering action to be so fast, and it can suddenly pick up speed with full sails. Before his own turning action was completed, the opponent's ten battleships divided into three small fleets and rushed out of the loophole between their two fleets. The nearest one was less than fifty meters away from the bow of the opposing ship, and this distance on the sea was basically equivalent to colliding.

If it is a real battle, the three battleships east of the Cape Town garrison fleet will be attacked by the opponent's concentrated firepower, and they will not be able to fight back, and they will have to be unlucky with the two battleships in the southernmost part of the main fleet. This is what is often said to be not afraid of god-like enemies, but afraid of pig-like teammates.

"Commander Ou, are you still in the mood to laugh? As soon as he took a look at his face, he was punched in the face, could it be that the Royal Navy could really only bully and bully the Arabs and the Great Song Sailors? Since the beginning of this scene, it has all been seen in the eyes of Hong Jinhe, and all the imperial officials on the stern of the Sea King have also seen it. Even if it has been confirmed that Hong Tao is indeed on the boat, the other party has no malicious intent, but such an opening statement still makes Hong Jinhe very faceless.

"Hey, hey, hey...... His Majesty was still so unwilling to suffer that he didn't know who their commander was. If it's mercy, I really can't beat it, if it's Weng Ya, I'll go to the cabin to hide, no one will say I'm coming, she can scold me all night, and she has to go to my house to continue scolding. "Commander Ou has no consciousness of losing the battle, this kind of confrontation without the use of live ammunition is a training program often used by the Royal Navy, and the skills are inferior to men, and the ships are inferior to people, so there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

Commander Ou's words silenced everyone in the stern. Now that I think about it, the Imperial Government was indeed a little ruthless towards some Imperial officials in the first place. People like Ci Mi, Weng Ya, Mai Tini, Qi Zu, Wen Xiaoqi, Wen Nan, and Kong Pei were supposed to be the wealth of the empire, but in the end they became victims of political struggles. Without their help, Hong Tao alone would definitely not be able to make a name for himself, this old emperor is notoriously lazy. But no one can say this problem clearly, when these people were excluded back then, starting from the Imperial Prime Minister, to the Imperial Speaker and the Imperial Emperor, they were all considered accomplices, and now it is too late to regret it.

"Commander Ou, I don't understand a little, why can they suddenly accelerate when they are already full sails, and I don't see oars on their boat, why is this?" The older speaker has experience in this area, and he skillfully resolved everyone's embarrassment, and the questions raised are not particularly idiotic, which is very insightful.

"They weren't full sails all the time, and the reason why a lot of people saw them as full sails was because they didn't move their top and middle sails, but they put the bottom sails away. I guess this idea was also from His Majesty, and his old man's favorite thing is to deceive people, no, Speaker, you have been deceived, right? "This little trick of the Virginia class can hide from the Imperial officials, and even some sailors, but it definitely can't hide from the officers of the Royal Navy. There are some things that I just didn't expect, but after seeing them once, I understood them all.

"Alas...... See you early and see you later, Your Majesty, don't delay, send a signal to set up a venue. The speaker raised his binoculars again and looked at them carefully, and shook his head helplessly. In his opinion, this kind of design has no practical significance, and can only deceive others once, and only people like Hong Tao who take pranks as fun will engage in this set.

The process of this negotiation has been arranged by the Royal Navy, and neither side needs to say who has credit, but it is still the same method as Hong Tao met with Emperor Li Zong in Hangzhou Bay, and set up a neutral ship, which will be checked by both sides, and then board the ship together, which is both trouble-free and safe. However, when the Royal Navy sent a flag to Hong Tao's fleet, the reply was disagreeable!

"What is neutral or not, I think it is most appropriate to use the Sea King as a venue, there is food, drink and a large cabin, and if you can't finish talking in one day, you can talk about it for two days. Lao Wen, do you dare to come with me? "Most people are afraid of death the older they get, but Hong Tao is just the opposite, the older he gets, the more he can die, and he has to die if he has no conditions to create conditions.

"I also think that the cabin of the Sea King is more comfortable......" Hong Tao was not afraid, Wen Nan knew that it was useless to say that he was afraid, so he simply took justice once.

"Hahahaha...... Captain Wu, let go of the dinghy, and then run away with our fleet, don't let them surround you. No matter what happens, if I want to come back, I'll come back in a dinghy by myself, don't save me if I don't come back, take the fleet to contain them here, and send a boat back to Lin'an City to inform Boss Luo, and take everyone back to Midway Island together. Tell Medini and Luo Meimei for me, put the focus of defense to the west, the European side can be eased first, the biggest threat is not Europe but this Golden River Empire that even doesn't want my own father. Remember every word, don't talk too much nonsense. "Hong Tao can die by himself, but he doesn't want to take too many people with him, he has lived enough, and those people have not lived enough. Not only can't harm them, but also remind them as much as possible who to guard.

As Hong Tao's dinghy left the mother ship, a very peculiar scene appeared on the sea. A small wooden boat was rowed slowly on the surface of the sea by two sailors, and two old men with gray beards stood side by side in the bow of the boat, and the short old man was often unsteady on his feet, and needed to be helped by the tall old man from time to time. However, the nearby Royal Navy warships all lowered their sails, and no longer chased and teased each other's warships, and slowly gathered to a distance of 100 meters from the boat, as if they were being reviewed.

If before this time it was not clear who the commander of these ten warships was, now most people have seen it, it is the tall old man standing on the bow of the small boat. Although nearly ten years have passed, his appearance has not changed much, he still has short hair less than half an inch, a shaved chin, slender eyes, and two obvious scars on the left side of his face. The only difference is that the black hair of the year has turned gray-white, but once the momentum is not weak, standing on a small boat facing dozens of warships, and still shyly posing, as if he is standing on a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

"Let's swing the oars, and the boat pushes the waves...... Soon, the tall old man clapped his hands again, and sang the military song of the Royal Navy with the only three people in the boat, and he himself was not idle, and his horn was still full of breath, and the song overpowered the sound of the waves.

Many of the sailors and officers on the Royal Navy battleships also sang along, especially those over the age of thirty or forty. Thinking of the scene when he followed the old emperor to fight in the east and west, and the gods blocked and killed the gods and Buddhas, the singing was particularly emotional, and some extroverts had begun to shed tears. This man and this song reminded them of their youth, and it was also the best time in their memory.

"The principal is the most handsome and invincible in the world...... I don't know if it was the people on the battleship who started the battleship, and shouted that very shameless slogan with the habit of training on the ship in the navigation school, and then the same shout broke out on every battleship.

There are some young sailors and officers who did not receive this kind of training when Hong Tao was the principal, and they can't help but ask the veterans around them, why do they shout like this? Then the veteran would tell him: Boy, be content, when we were in school, just because we didn't shout this sentence loudly enough, how much torture we suffered in vain! At noon in the middle of summer, I wore winter clothes to wipe the deck, and I didn't use any water at all, and the sweat left behind washed the deck. (To be continued.) )
