Chapter 251: A New War

At this moment, the battered Haiqi was almost unable to support it. The hull of the ship was tilted sharply, the fire on the ship was out of control, and almost all the gun emplacements had been muted. Only a few 47mm and 37mm guns remained, firing stubbornly at the approaching Dutch fleet!

"Abandon the ship, let the brothers go with their lives." On the bridge of the Haiqi, Colonel Li Tingguang's eyes flashed with tears, and he caressed his battleship with a heartache, and said with a sigh.

"Sir, please transfer!" The first mate of the Haiqi, Major Zhao Guangbiao supported his captain and shouted anxiously.

Colonel Li Tingguang shook his head slightly, a wry smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and said softly, "I lost this battleship, what face do I have to live?" Don't say anything more, let's go, go back with your brothers, and you must avenge the Haiqi! ”

The officers and men of the Dutch fleet, who had already arrived at the Haiqi, all looked at the Haiqi, which was almost semi-submersible, with complicated expressions. At such a time, the officers and men of the battleship who were still alive continued to shoot at the Dutch fleet with all the weapons that could fire!

Even those 37-mm shells could only leave spots on the hull of the Dutch fleet, and they did not give up! These naval officers and men fulfilled the oath they had made when they joined the army and fought to the last moment!

"Such a soldier, such a fleet!" Looking at the cruiser Haiqi slowly disappearing into the depths of the sea, Vice Admiral Helfri whispered with a complicated face, "What did we do!?" ”

The cruiser Haiqi, this one is twenty-seven years old. The cruiser, which cost close to three hundred and thirty thousand pounds and had a displacement of four thousand three hundred tons. With the captain of the ship, Colonel Li Tingguang, nearly 400 naval officers and sailors sank to the cold seabed!

Until the last moment, the battleship was still fighting!

After picking up dozens of survivors, the Dutch fleet immediately fled at top speed in the direction of Batavia!

Vice Admiral Helfri knew very well that once Pontianak's First Reconnaissance Fleet arrived, no matter whether war was declared or not, and how the diplomatic side negotiated, a fierce battle would be absolutely inevitable! And the Dutch fleet, with little hope of winning!

After the news of the sinking of the Haiqi caused an uproar!

The Governor of Batavia was completely stupid. He just left Helfry to deal with the pirates. How did he come to the vicinity of Borneo and sink Gao Yang's warship? What's going on? Is Helfrey crazy? Did he think he was possessed by God? Even the British were reluctant to provoke Gao Yang!!

Governor Bauma felt he should go and get some rest. "It must be a nightmare! I'll be fine when I wake up. ”

The Prime Minister of the Netherlands, who received the news, also went to find his queen as quickly as possible. Counsel on what to do with this absurd incident.

Queen Wilhelmina, who was preparing to dine, was also taken aback by the news. She and her prime minister looked at each other, and did Helfri know what he had done?

Gao Yang is a madman! When he didn't have anything to do, he kept looking for trouble, and now he was given such a big-eared scraper, so the next crazy revenge

Queen Wilhelmina had no more thoughts of dining. She could only rush to find the British ambassador. Ask your relatives for help.

The British were also shocked by the news. What are the Dutch thinking? The Japanese who took the initiative to provoke Gao Yang were all beaten into pigs' heads by Gao Yang's crackling beating. Did the Dutch think they were stronger than the Japanese?

"There's no way, let Ma Ke go to Gao Yang immediately, I hope it can be solved through negotiation." Prime Minister Baldwin stretched out his hands and rubbed his head. said with a distressed face.

After receiving a farewell call from the Haiqi, the naval headquarters in the northern capital was in turmoil! The young staff officers were all angry and insulting the Dutch, who had made undeclared war and specialized in sneak attacks, in various dialects. "The Japanese have more character than the Dutch!"

Chief Lin Jianzhang's face was pale, and he ordered the large fleet to start assembling immediately. The 1st Reconnaissance Fleet in Pontianak immediately set sail for the area where the accident occurred to rescue the surviving crew. The detachment in the port of Truk in the Caroline Islands immediately set sail and entered the highest level of combat readiness.

At the same time, he sent a telegram asking for instructions to Gao Yang in the magic capital! Ask Gao Yang to sign the fleet transfer order!

Demon Capital, Garrison Headquarters. Weix, who had been called out of bed by the staff officer, was looking at the telegram in his hand with a sad face.

Not only the Navy's telegram, but also the President of the Duan Ruling and the Republic of Lanfang also sent a telegram to Gao Yang, asking how to deal with the incident. However, as the person in charge of affairs appointed by Gao Yang before leaving, Weix has no right to decide!

Before Gao Yang returned to modern time and space to get engaged, he gave himself a three-day vacation on the grounds that he needed to recuperate!

Before leaving, Gao Yang appointed Weix as his head of affairs. "You can decide anything else besides going to war!" These were Gao Yang's exact words before leaving. It's just that now it's time to declare war!

Warships are the territory of the country's mobility, and if the battleship is sunk, the only option is to declare war! This is the law prevailing in the world. Wilks didn't hesitate to choose this option.

However, he does not have the right to declare war! Without Gao Yang's consent, Duan Zheng, who can declare war, can't do this!

In the same way, without the autograph of Gao Yang, who is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, any order to mobilize the army cannot be given! Wix could handle military affairs, but he couldn't mobilize even a squad of troops!

In desperation, Weix could only go to Gao Yang's residence to find him in person. Unsurprisingly, the cyborg warriors turned down anyone's visit with a blank face. "The order given by the commander is that no one is allowed to disturb, no one is allowed!"

Weix, who shouted loudly outside Gao Yang's residence and received no response, had no choice but to leave. He can only order the troops to prepare for combat within the scope of his authority, and the specific combat orders must be signed by Gao Yang himself!

Vice Admiral Li Guotang led the First Reconnaissance Fleet to the sunken sea area of the Haiqi, but found nothing.

After asking the Navy Headquarters for instructions, Vice Admiral Li Guotang led the First Reconnaissance Fleet to Batavia at high speed!

Upon arrival off the coast of Batavia. The Dutch's explanatory telegram also arrived. The Dutch said it was a misunderstanding! They are willing to pay compensation for this 'unfortunate incident'!

The furious Chief Lin Jianzhang completely ignored the Dutch's explanation, and personally left the northern capital, and took a warship in Tianjin to the magic capital overnight to find Gaoyang.

Lieutenant General Li Guotang, who is wandering off the coast of Batavia, keeps asking what he should do at home!

Chief Lin Jianzhang sent him a telegram granting the front-line commander to 'act on his own according to the situation'!

After receiving this telegram, Lieutenant General Li Guotang, who was determined to fight for his last chance, immediately sent an ultimatum to the Dutch in Batavia! "Before six o'clock in the evening, release our personnel and hand over the murderer!"

The Dutch returned the survivors of the Haiqi to the 1st Reconnaissance Fleet, but refused to hand over the killers. Their entire fleet is a murderer, how to hand it over? Surrender without a fight?

During this time, diplomats from various countries visited Gaoyang like a marquee. Chief Lin Jianzhang and Duan Zhengzheng also sent a telegram to Gao Yang at the speed of almost one telegram per hour!

The British expressed their willingness to mediate in this 'regrettable incident', and the Dutch said they could talk about anything. Hopefully, Gao Yang can stay calm. They are willing to take responsibility for this incident!

At a time when all parties were trying to resolve the matter diplomatically, at six o'clock in the evening, the time for the ultimatum came.

Lieutenant General Li Guotang, who was determined to fight hard for his own future, gave the order to shell Batavia! The war has begun!

When the target time and space were all in turmoil, Gao Yang, who was in modern time and space, had successfully arrived in San Francisco, USA.

Stoke was already waiting at the airport. After getting into the greeting vehicle. Gao Yang asked in a low voice, "How are you preparing?" ”

Stoke had a gentlemanly smile on his face. Whispered, "Sir." Everything is ready. The engagement ceremony I have prepared for you is sure to satisfy you. ”

"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded and stopped talking. Looking out the window at the bright California sunshine, my mind turned. "What a great place."

"OPPA, this is where I was born." Zheng Xiujing, who was sitting next to Gao Yang, had a happy look on her face and said happily.

"Hmm." Gao Yang turned his head to look at her, a soft look flashed in his originally somewhat gloomy eyes, and he said softly, "I know the truth, that's why I chose the place of engagement here." ”

"OPPA, you've been so good to me. If one day, you don't love me anymore, what should I do? Zheng Xiujing gently snuggled into Gao Yang's arms and whispered with a complicated expression.

Gao Yang raised his eyebrows, reached out and tapped lightly on her head, and said, "What do you want?" You are my wife, and it is right to be nice to you. I'm very focused on feelings, so stop thinking about it. ”

Stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Zheng Xiujing's shoulder, and said softly, "I am engaged here, and I will go to my place when I get married." ”

"Hmm." Zheng Xiujing's cheeks turned red, and she nodded shyly. The interior of the car soon fell silent.

After a while, Zheng Xiujing suddenly looked up at Gao Yang, biting her lip lightly, her bright big eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, and asked softly, "OPPA, how did you break up with your previous girlfriend?" ”

"Huh?!" Gao Yang's body stiffened, and a memory that he didn't want to recall surged from the depths of his heart.

His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a painful memory flashed in his eyes. Looking down at Zheng Xiujing in her arms, an inexplicable smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, and she asked softly, "Why do you want to ask this?" ”

Zheng Xiujing turned her body slightly, changed a comfortable position in Gao Yang's arms, and said softly, "I just want to know what kind of girl is willing to give up OPPA, such a good man?" Meeting OPPA is the greatest happiness of my life. ”

Gao Yang smiled indifferently and turned his head to look at the gorgeous California scenery outside the window. "Fate is really interesting, she gave up on me when I didn't have everything I have now." By the time I was able to give her the life she was pursuing, I didn't have her in my heart anymore.
