; In the reception hall of the Lushun Army, Liu Jun was so reluctant for the first time. Mutton and beef, stir-fried, as long as this one thing is said, Liu Jun asked the kitchen to get it out, and asked Zhong Lin to go to the street to get several jars for a long time, and had a good meal with Clinde.

The Germans are honest, Liu Jun said that he wanted two advanced armored cruisers, but he didn't expect the German emperor to really agree, and they were two big guys, the Victoria class and Empress Augusta.

You must know that these two warships are more than 2,000 tons more than the current Hashidate. There is no way to say about the firepower. Such good things do not happen every time.

After eating, Liu Jun asked Zhong Lin to send Clint back to the room. A person excitedly circled around the living room.

After seeing Zhong Lin come back, Liu Jun grabbed Zhong Lin and said, "Go, go quickly, find Li He with me, be quick."

Zhong Lin didn't know what Liu Jun was so anxious to do with Li He, thinking that it was something urgent, so he nodded, got on his horse and ran to the military port when he went out.

On the warship Hashidate, Zhong Lin found Li He, who was about to go to sea, and grabbed Li He's clothes while panting: "Don't go, don't go anywhere, hurry up and see me." ”

What is so urgent, seeing Li He's urgent appearance, Li He frowned suspiciously and asked, "What's so urgent." ”

Zhong Lin also wanted to know what was going on. He knew that after the head came to this Germany, he often talked to himself where he was. He also had a smirk on his face, and even laughed out loud sometimes.

Especially today. The conversation lasted less than an hour, and he had always been diligent and thrifty in Zhong Lin's eyes, and he never ate more than five dishes, and he actually moved out more than a dozen dishes at once. This is a first-of-its-kind first. Even if the ordination ceremony is over. The first to invite a few hard-working people to eat, it is only seven dishes. Today, however, for the sake of a German. That's a little too much.

"This. This one. Zhong Lin stammered: "I know, after the German who called your father came, his head became weird." ”

Pit your father, this German has this name, and a big question mark appeared in Li He's eyes.

"Oh, don't be stunned, your head is still waiting for you in the hall." Seeing where Li He was still like a rolling pin, Zhong Lin grabbed Li He's sleeve and pulled the bridge number.

In a hurry, the two of them rode fast horses, and in less than ten minutes, they came to the current headquarters, which was the original naval yamen.

After entering the door, Li He saw a German dressed in a somewhat fat suit walking to the thatched pit not far away, accompanied by two guards.

Pointed strangely: "That foreigner? ”

Zhong Lin raised his head and looked at it, with a strange expression: "That's that German, pit your father, what the hell, what a broken name." ”

Oh, Li He didn't think about it. Instead, he followed Zhong Lin to the reception hall.

As soon as he entered the door, Li He asked about the fragrance of tea inside. He could ask, the good dragon well. I looked at the table opposite and saw that there were two cups of tea brewed on it.

And Liu Jun, who was closing his eyes, kept holding his chin in his hand, and kept picking up the lid of the teacup to make the teacup click somewhere.

"I don't know what the big boss wants me to do?"

Liu Jun opened his eyes, and when he saw that it was Li He, he immediately smiled and asked Li He to sit next to him. After taking a sip of tea, Liu Jun asked straight to the point, "You are the commander of the navy, let me ask you a question?" ”

"If you have any questions, just ask, as long as I know, I will definitely answer." Li He said with a positive face.

Liu Jun nodded, and asked lightly, "The German Victoria-class armored cruiser and the Empress Augusta (the plot requires it, so let the two warships go out in advance) and your Hashidate and even the warships of the Combined Fleet, which is amazing?" ”

This question still needs to be asked. Li He, as a navy, certainly knows. Any of the two warships that Liu Jun said in his mouth had a tonnage of more than 6,000, rapid-fire guns, main guns, and speeds, not to mention the Hashidate, even if he turned over the Japanese warships, he couldn't find them

"These two armored cruisers are the latest German launches, and the speed of firepower is not comparable to the warships of our combined fleet with Japan." Li He thought for a moment. Answer Liu Jun in the affirmative.

"That's good, that's good, it seems that this deal is not a loss." Liu Jun nodded and muttered to himself, looked at Li He, who was puzzled, and Liu Jun stretched out his finger solemnly: "Within two months, I will train 1,000 qualified sailors and commanders." ”

This strange order made Li He very puzzled, two months, this time is a little short, but seeing Liu Jun's irrefutable expression, Li He still agreed and said that if the training could not be completed, he would resign himself.

If there is a warship without someone who can pilot, then everything is in vain.

Liu Jun knew that the two warships that were coming and the current Pingyuan Qiaoli were his navy background, and there was no room for Mahu. The reason why he asked Li He to train 1,000 sailors within two months was so that when these two warships came, they would not be docked in the harbor and wasted.

There is no reason or excuse, Liu Jun doesn't care what Li He does, anyway, as soon as the German warship arrives, he will want people.

Li He was a little excited, and said: "Don't worry, Dashuai, within two months, I won't be able to train qualified sailors and commanders." I, Li and Li He, have come to see you. ”

After receiving such a promise from Li He, Liu Jun happily asked Li He to go back and complete the task well, and told Li He very temptingly: "Complete the task, and I will give you the greatest reward." ”

After Li He returned to the Navy Bridge, he never understood why Liu Jun was very puzzled about why he gave him this confusing order today.

He is a smart man among honest people, adding today's conversation with Zhong Lin

He remembered the German in his mind

"Pit your father, pit your father," Li He kept folding his hands in the captain's room and closing his eyes to think of this strange name.

Slapping his head violently, Li He said in surprise: "Clinder." ”

He knew that Klinder was the German minister to the Qing Dynasty.

After two rounds, Li He recalled today's conversation, German warships, buying and selling, strange orders. Don't. Could it be that the marshal bought these two warships?

"Someone, call the captains of all ships to come to me immediately." Li He excitedly opened the captain's room and called the herald urgently.

If that's the case, let alone two months, it's just a month, and he's willing. Even if the convening is tired and dies on this, the convening is willing.

After Li He left, Liu Jun kept thinking about how to make Klinder build a good relationship, and he knew that one day, the imperial court would know that he had an army of 100,000, and he didn't know what moths would come out of to treat him at that time. Although he didn't want to rebel.

If you want not to be eaten by the Japanese army, it is best for the troops to have powerful weapons. At present, Liu Jun only has German weapons in his sights.

He wanted to establish a close relationship with Germany through Klinder. We also have a private partnership with Germany. Achieve mutual benefit and win-win.

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Jun didn't know how to show the tough side of the pursuit. The only thing is that there are many soldiers. However, this is not an advantage, how many times more troops than you.

What to do, Liu Jun closed his eyes. He thought carefully about how the heads of the nations of later generations would achieve their goals.

Climbing, Liu Jun patted his head fiercely, "Why didn't Lao Tzu think of this." ”

Military parade, in order to express that they are very strong, the best way is to parade.

"You're paralyzed." Liu Jun scolded, he decided, there must be a military parade.

Since there is going to be a military parade, then there will be a big one, a big military parade of the navy and army, and we must give this Clint a good shock.

Let someone find Zhong Lin and tell him what he thinks. Zhong Lin is both hands in favor.

Let Zhong Lin be in charge of everything in this parade and be responsible for everything. Liu Jun decided that the military parade would be on February 7. It means to celebrate the New Year right away. The second is to let the people know the great power of the army, and the third is to deter Clint and let him know that Lao Tzu is a friend worth making.

Zhong Lin's speed was very fast, he said goodbye to Liu Jun, and found Wu Datong, the current second-in-command of Liaodong government affairs, and asked him to issue a notice to inform the military parade at the same time, and personally issued a series of questions about the military parade issued by Liu Jun to all armies.

The Lushun army boiled at once, and heard that a big military parade was going to be held on the 7th...... All the armies used their strength to feed. Compete with each other. Say whatever you want to show your face in this parade.

Wu Hao, Li Rong, Zhang Yi, and no one will be allowed either. Even the head of the copy is broken and the head is broken, and now they are very envious of Li He, at least no one is fighting with him, how the navy is picking, it is also his subordinate Li He.

Zhong Lin is a smart man, in order to prevent his gang of old buddies from bleeding, Zhong Lin drew an infantry regiment, a second cavalry regiment and an artillery regiment of the third army from Wu Hao's first army, plus a battalion of naval sailors. to complete this parade mission.

The first place of the parade was chosen at the Lushun Training Office.

The squires around Lushun, the county officials from all over the country, and the representatives of the common people were all invited.

Among them, Liu Jun deliberately asked some Qing army garrisons that had just been recruited, and some officers who had some complaints about Liu Jun gave death orders, they must arrive, and they should not engage in military law.

Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, who wouldn't do it, Liu Jun said proudly in his heart.
