Chapter 248 to Jinshan

Cleaned up the corpses of the American soldiers on the battleship, and after some coercion and temptation, controlled the surviving American naval officers and men of the two battleships, Yang Dongfang asked everyone to go up to the warship, and most of the prisoners remained on the merchant ship. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Because of the speed of the battleship, the two battleships dragged the merchant ship forward.

After walking for a day, he encountered a merchant ship on the road, Yang Dongfang was a thief, and directly drove over and captured in the name of the American warship, and then encountered two more ships, but one of them escaped after being an armed merchant ship and a British merchant ship after the bombardment, and was sunk.

Yang Dongfang saw the true power of warships on the sea for the first time, so he asked the New People's Army to learn from the American prisoners, at least to master the technology of firing guns at sea.

It is also determined to go all the way to the United States, because every time a ship is grabbed, not only a huge amount of materials are obtained, but also steam engine merchant ships, these ships are fast, and they are put back into China, which is a great help to the water transportation of the Yangtze River and Sichuan, and saves Li He a lot of trouble.

In particular, the four warships sent by Yang Dongfang greatly enhanced the strength of the Sanjiang Naval Division, and Li Dewu took the opportunity to attack all the Hunan naval divisions in Yuezhou, causing the Hunan naval divisions to flee and capture the water village in one fell swoop.

Then use this as a base to blockade the river, transport the personnel of the 3rd Division, Li He gathered his forces, first occupied the land east of Yuezhou, cut off the connection between Yuezhou and Jiangxi, and bombarded Yuezhou together with the eastward division of Hunan and Yin County.

――――――

Whew!

The wind was blowing, fierce and fast, fierce, and the seaside was extremely gloomy, and the experienced captain told Yang Dongfang: "Dashuai, this is about to blow a typhoon, and the next storm is coming." ”

"So what do we do?"

"I can only pray that God will bless me!"

"Fart!" Yang Dongfang looked at the posture of the black clouds crushing the city and wanted to destroy it, and he reluctantly jumped out of a sentence, in this era, there is indeed no good way to encounter a storm on the sea, so he can only endure it, but fortunately, his own people are on the battleship, which is safer.

Nature is scary because it is unknown, especially on the sea, and deserves awe for all who sail.

In a short time, lightning flashed in the sky, and rolling thunder was heard in the distance, and the sea became more and more uncalm, and the waves became higher and higher, and the wind and rain became more and more fierce, and people did not dare to stand on the deck at all, because it was easy to blow and fall into the water.

Soon, accompanied by the downpour of the wind, whether it was a merchant ship or a warship, the left and right shaking was extremely violent, turning over the river and the sea, Yang Dongfang and others finally realized that they were knocked to the right for a while, and they were taken to the left by inertia for a while, and they fell out of the big bag one by one.

The four ships were not controlled at all and were quickly blown off course, and the wind and rain did not stop until the curtain fell.

Fortunately, the four ships did not disperse, and the last ray of sunshine in the evening made everyone feel a lot more at ease, and then someone let out a cheer, because they saw land, a very long land.

Some people thought they were in Hawaii, but when they got closer, they saw that it was a barren land with no signs of human activity.

After being frightened in the sea for a day, Yang Dongfang decided to let everyone get off the boat and rest on the island.

Not to mention stepping on land, many people breathed a sigh of relief, a lot of steadfastness, and rarely took out a piece of sand and soil, and took two sips greedily.

The feeling of land is good, there is a sense of security, even experienced crew members pray.

Yang Dongfang asked people to search the island, but everyone knew nothing, even the experienced crew didn't know where it was.

The captains knew that they had discovered a new continent, and this island should have not been discovered yet, so Yang Dongfang immediately asked people to engrave the inscription on the stele, naming the island China Island, swearing sovereignty, indicating that it was the first Chinese to discover this island.

After resting for one night, he continued to sail the next day, but after walking for half a day, he finally came to the route, and Minier and others told Yang Dongfang that they would arrive in Hawaii in one day.

Yang Dongfang recalled something, the northwest of Hawaii is a little farther away, probably Midway.

He and others actually discovered Midway, which is the western gateway to Hawaii, a strategic point, but when they thought that the airplane had not yet been invented, they were gone.

At this time, there were four forces in Hawaii, one was the indigenous kingdom on the Hawaiian Islands.

The second is the United Kingdom, which in 1843 the British government publicly declared that Britain had sovereignty over Hawaii.

The third is France, which in 1849 claimed to occupy Hawaii and had partial sovereignty over Hawaii.

Fourth, the United States, although the United States is the weakest now, but their power is constantly increasing.

It wasn't until 1893 that American Christian missionaries led all the church members to overthrow the Kingdom of Hawaii

In 1894, the provisional government of the Republic of Hawaii was established, and the first and last queen of Hawaii was forced to abdicate, and in 1898, the United States officially annexed Hawaii.

The location of the Hawaiian Islands is extremely important, that is, it is a forward barrier to protect the west coast of the United States, and it is also a bridgehead for attacking the west coast of the United States, and it is also a bridgehead for the United States to penetrate and expand its power in Asia and Australia.

Entering the Hawaiian Islands, Yang Dongfang asked people to sail warships into Oahu and other large islands, and set up several coordinate points for use in the coming days, and he was very restrained and did not do anything else, and continued to make the great cause of robbery to the west coast of the United States, of course, because the closer to the west coast, the more merchant ships came and went.

One is counted as one, no matter which country it is, he did not let it go, and took it all, and the piracy industry was in full swing, and when he arrived in San Francisco, he had captured fifty large and small merchant ships and more than 2,000 personnel.

For a while, the American route was like a man-eating monster, making people shudder and dare not sail.

It wasn't until he was 500 kilometers away from the west coast of the United States that Yang Dongfang gave up, and took the warship and replaced it with a merchant ship, and found a relatively large uninhabited desert island at a distance of 100 kilometers near San Francisco, and then imprisoned all the prisoners here, and only brought dozens of people such as Minier to the port and docked.

San Francisco, also known as San Francisco, was discovered in 1848 as a result of the gold rush.

Originally part of Mexican territory, California became a U.S. territory in February of the same year after Mexico's defeat in the Mexican-American War.

California became the 31st state of the U.S. federal government in 1850, with San Francisco as the original county. The Federal Mint of San Francisco was established in 1854 to create a market for gold coins.

The Gold Rush made San Francisco the largest city west of the Mississippi River in the United States.

Even so, the current population is only 1230,000.

And the nearby Chinese account for forty or fifty thousand! In the past two years, because Lincoln approved the construction of the Pacific Railroad to open up the west, the railway company began to recruit hard-working Chinese laborers with a cheap basic salary, and the number of Chinese increased further.

So when Yang Dongfang and the others' merchant ships docked, the profiteers who smelled the smell of blood flocked to them, first, to ask how much cargo the merchant ships carried, and secondly, they wanted to buy Yang Dongfang's new people's army, because the new people's army entering the port had no weapons in their hands, and they were all yellow-faced, these people naturally thought that they were piglets, so angry that Yang Dongfang really wanted to smoke them.

What a look at Made!

Could it be that the yellow face has become synonymous with piglets?

Seeing that Yang Dongfang was quite angry, Minier drove away these reluctant profiteers, and said cautiously: "Dashuai, this is the case in San Francisco, there are business opportunities everywhere, and people looking for business opportunities everywhere, and they are very thief-eyed. ”

Yang Dongfang waved his hand disappreciatively, he still knew a little about San Francisco, but then he was unhappy, because the police in San Francisco came out, holding a revolver in his hand, and shouted arrogantly: "Yellow pig, go over there." This is not for you to stay in, and if you dare to pollute us, I will kill you. ”

Then Mineil explained in a panic, for fear that this killing god would kill the policeman and make the situation bigger, knowing that in Japan, this handsome man would slaughter the city without saying a word.

By then, he will be finished, and everyone will know that he brought the New People's Army.

"Dashuai, in order to manage the people from the east and prevent them from causing trouble, our government generally places them in the east of the city, gathers and manages, and there are police officers watching 24 hours a day, and the city street does not allow Orientals to enter casually."
