It didn't take long for the tram to stop, and the people on the bus rushed to the side of the road, and Zeng Pinghai, who had not yet arrived at the station, also rushed down, because just now he heard "Eight Great Distance!" ”

After getting out of the car, Zeng Pinghai finally heard the newsboys' chanting clearly: "The High Overseer bought the British warship at a sky-high price to rebuild the Eight Great Distances!" The High Overseer pays £20 million to rebuild the Beiyang Fleet! ”

Zeng Pinghai was stunned, "What are the newsboys shouting?" Did I hear it wrong? Zeng Pinghai, who felt a little dizzy, suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, but he couldn't believe that he was really afraid that it was just a joke. Swallowing his saliva fiercely, Zeng Pinghai shook his head and came to his senses, walked a few steps quickly, and picked up a flyer from the ground.

What catches your eye is the huge bold headline: "The High Overseer Pays 20 Million Pounds to Rebuild Eight Great Distances!" Zeng Pinghai didn't read the following content, and after seeing the title, Zeng Pinghai felt as if he had been punched in the head, dizzy for a while, his mind was blank, and he couldn't even hear the cheers of the citizens on the street next to him. His legs limped and he sat on the ground.

Zeng Pinghai is 30 years old and a native of Zibo, Shandong. He is the posthumous son, and his father is Zeng Hongji, the chief engineer of the Zhiyuan ship of the former Qing Beiyang Fleet! Zeng Hongji sank on the bottom of the sea with the Zhiyuan ship in the Battle of Dadonggou and was martyred. After Zeng Pinghai was born, his grandfather named him Pinghai in honor of Zeng Hongji.

Since childhood, Zeng Pinghai's mother has always taught him, saying that your father sank in Dadonggou with the Zhiyuan ship, and the Japanese are your father's enemies, and you must remember this revenge. The young Zeng Pinghai was branded with the name Zhiyuan in his heart.

After becoming an adult, Zeng Pinghai went north to Tianjin to apply for the Tianjin Sailor School, but he didn't think about it, but he fell off the list because he was sick before the exam. In desperation, he enrolled in a French-run technical school to study accounting. Not long after graduation, his mother died of illness, and he left his hometown, and according to the introduction of the school, he went south to work in a French foreign firm.

After that, he started a family, married a wife and had children, and now he has 3 children to support. The heavy pressure of life buried the naval dream in his heart and the desire to avenge his father deep in his heart.

Although he failed to join the navy, Zeng Pinghai has been paying attention to the navy, but the Chinese navy is weakening day by day. The Japanese navy is getting stronger and stronger, and after World War I, it is the third in the world! Zeng Pinghai, who was afraid that he would not be able to see the day when his revenge would be avenged in his life, was painful and depressed, so he could only use wine to kill his sorrows.

Until just now! After a long pause, Zeng Pinghai picked up the leaflet with trembling hands and looked at it carefully. Below the title is a detailed description, to the effect that the High Governor personally purchased seven battleships and an aircraft carrier from Britain at a personal expense of 20 million pounds, as well as numerous light warships.

The High Governor has made it clear that they will name these 8 giant ships after the former Beiyang Fleet! The arms purchase plan has been submitted to the British government, and the British minister said that he will give a clear answer in the near future! According to well-informed sources, the British government is very likely to accept this sky-high arms purchase contract! Once the arms purchase is completed, the Chinese Navy will immediately become the fourth in the world and regain its former glory!

"Ha Lu Ha, Ha Lu Ha Ha, Ha Lu Ha

The windows and doors on both sides of the street were opened, the radios in the house were turned on to the maximum, and all the radio stations in the magic capital were broadcasting the news! and the cheers of the crowd converged into a huge wave of sound that spread farther and farther, higher and higher!

Zeng Pinghai wept bitterly, and shouted loudly with tears, "Father, did you hear that? Badayuan is back!! ”

In the distance, there was a huge wave of people on the street, most of whom were students from various schools in the magic capital holding signs and chanting slogans!

The students chanted "Navy!" Navy! Navy! "Walk along the road towards the Demon Capital Garrison Headquarters. Along the way, countless people joined in and chanted in unison! Zeng Pinghai wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly: "Navy! He strode forward and joined the ranks. As for work? Who cares what work today!

The dense flow of people gathered more and more, and by the time the team arrived at the garrison headquarters, the entire street was already filled with dense crowds! There are too many, it's really crowded! Even the rooftops of the houses on both sides were full of people! All were chanting in unison "Navy!" Navy! "Ten thousand people shouted in unison!

Minister Ma Murui, who was having breakfast with Sir Mack at the British Consulate, immediately took a car with Sir Mack to the Magic Capital Garrison Headquarters after receiving the news.

A few streets away from the garrison headquarters, the car was blocked, and the driver helplessly said that he couldn't get through in this situation!

Looking at the crowd of cheers and shouting slogans outside, the two ministers looked at each other. As time passed, the faces of the two ministers became more and more gloomy.

In the middle of the sound, Minister Ma Murui said quietly: "Napoleon said that the Chinese lion should be put to sleep all the time, but I found that the lion was about to wake up!" ”

Sir Ma Ke sighed deeply and said slowly, "I'm now beginning to wonder if selling to the Gaoyang warship is the right choice!" ”

Minister Ma Murui did not answer him, but silently looked at the crowd outside the car window. After half a ring, he said in a deep voice, "Go back!" ”

The guards in the garrison headquarters closed the iron gate tightly, and everyone lined up tightly in a wall to prevent the flow of people from entering the headquarters. However, the crowd stopped at the entrance of the headquarters, and the chanting of slogans gradually subsided.

Soon the scene became calm, but the crowd of so many people gathered together that even the sound of just whispering was very loud. Many people were excited by this news and wanted to vent their joy before following the team to the garrison headquarters.

When he gradually calmed down, he found that he didn't know how to express his gratitude to the High Overseer.

The crowd, who didn't know what to say, gradually lowered down, and at this time, a student in the student team suddenly took a few steps forward, turned to look at his classmates, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Gao Yang! The students were stunned, and then reacted and shouted in unison, "Gao Yang!" ”

The noise grew louder and louder, and soon everyone was chanting "Gao Yang!" again. Gao Yang! "The sound was so loud that the glass on both sides of the road was buzzing.

At this time, Gao Yang, who had just woken up in modern time and space, had eaten breakfast and shuttled over, and was startled by a huge sound as soon as he opened the door.

"What's wrong?" Gao Yang, who was wearing a white shirt and black slacks, asked in some surprise. Gao Feng, who had been waiting, shook his head slightly and said with a wry smile, "Sir, I seem to have played too big." ”

"Huh? Let's talk about it. Gao Yang then asked.

Gao Feng coughed lightly and said, "Sir, according to your arrangement, I have all the newspapers and radio stations report on the purchase of warships. At that time, I thought that it would be better to make the momentum bigger, so I arranged for people to go to various schools to encourage those enthusiastic young people to go to the streets to publicize this matter, so as to build momentum for the chief. But I didn't expect it to be so big! Now the entire garrison headquarters is full of citizens of the Demon City, and you've been calling your name since you heard them arrive. ”

"Oh, well, it's not your fault. You don't understand what it is like for people who were once glorious, but who are down, and now they see the hope of glory again! For people who have lived in the haze for decades, even a ray of sunshine is enough to drive them crazy! Gao Yang walked slowly to the window, stretched out his hand to open the curtain slightly, and said in a deep voice.

The sound of cheering Gao Yang outside the window was wave after wave, and the momentum was amazing. The corners of Gao Yang's mouth curled up slightly, and he nodded slightly. Then he turned around and walked towards the balcony on the third floor of the headquarters.

When Gao Yang appeared on the balcony on the third floor, the atmosphere of the scene reached its peak! The photojournalist at the scene recorded this scene, Gao Yang smiled and waved gently to the crowd, and the audience shouted in unison! At this moment, Gao Yang's prestige in this country reached its peak in such a way!

The news spread from all directions along the radio waves to the whole world. In the Northern Capital, after Duan Zhizhi learned the news, he sat quietly in the study reading a book, and said to the people close to him, "There are successors in the Anhui family, I can finally rest." ”

In Guangzhou, President Jiang, who sighed for a long time, broke his oath to Chen Jieru and picked up the wine glass again.

In the Daqing Building of the Fengtian Marshal's Mansion, Zhang Dashuai, who smashed several teacups, called Zhang Xueliang into the study and said, "Little Liuzi, you go to the magic capital to make friends with Gaoyang." You're two years younger than Gao Yang, and it's best to be a sworn brother with him, and later, later."

Zhang Dashuai sighed, sat down on the chair and said in a deep voice: "Lao Tzu has been fighting for decades, and finally defeated Wu Ziyu and survived Sun Dacang's disease, and the old man Duan in the northern capital is about to die." Seeing that he was about to win the world, why did he suddenly jump out of a tall man!! ”

Zhang Dashuai slapped the table fiercely, and the table slammed loudly. Zhang Xueliang hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, "Father, that Gao Zihou is just a little rich, nothing remarkable." ”

Zhang Dashuai looked at his disdainful son and shook his head slightly. As a veteran, Zhang Dashuai has been fighting for decades, and he deeply understands that fighting is money! There's no money to fight. Back then, the Japanese fought with the Russians and won the war with money! "Xiao Liuzi is young and vigorous, and he still doesn't understand." Zhang Dashuai thought silently.

He relieved his mood, looked at Zhang Xueliang and said, "Little Liuzi, you are ready to prepare, go south immediately." When you get to the devil, you have to make friends with Gao Yang, he is one, he is one" Zhang Dashuai was a little helpless, and some couldn't speak.

sighed fiercely and said in a deep voice: "He is a character who can win the world!" Zhang Xueliang looked at his father with a surprised face, how could he say such a thing that would make others want to destroy his prestige!

Zhang Dashuai waved his hand to stop what Zhang Xueliang was about to say, and said lightly, "Go ahead, go and see Guo Maochen when you pass by the Northern Capital, I heard that he has been very restless recently." ”

Zhang Xueliang didn't dare to say anything more, and turned to leave after saluting. When I opened the door, I saw Shen Honglie, commander of the Northeast Coastal Defense Fleet, waiting outside. Before the two of them could say a few words, they heard Zhang Dashuai shouting in the house, "Hahaha, Chengzhang, why are you here, come in and drink tea." ”
