Lorraine looked at the floating battleship with a bewildered expression. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Everyone who was still at the scene had a ghostly expression, and Admiral Catherine was even more devastated, "This is the so-called floating battleship?" ”

No one could answer the question of the admiral, but there was no doubt about the result that Admiral Lorraine of Brittania had destroyed an Eastern floating warship with a single cannon shot.

This achievement stunned everyone, and all kinds of praises followed, and many people have since become Lorraine's brainless fans.

"This ...... I really didn't expect to shoot down the floating battleship......"

With this question in mind, Lorraine returned to the flagship, and everyone on the battleship saluted him and congratulated him on his victory.

"It's amazing! Your Excellency, please sign your subordinates here! ”

It seems that something is wrong, why would this guy ask the general for an autograph, could it be that he wants to do something bad?

"As Admiral Lorraine, I know that you are absolutely capable of turning the tide!"

It's not right, why didn't you just follow up and play assault, and wait until Lorraine finished the light cannon to come up and slap the ass, although it feels good.

Only Alexander looked unhappy, and it seemed that he still believed that Lorraine was a blind cat and a dead mouse, which was really arrogant!

"Hmph, it's just luck...... If Miss Charlotte is here, where will it be your turn to perform! ”

"Yes, yes, Brother Alexander has a point...... Now there is no danger, let's talk to the Riberians first. ”

"Talk? Their losses were like this, the Marine Corps lost most of them, and the Navy warships were almost wiped out...... Do you want to arrest all of them? ”

"How can you be so shameless as you say! The most I could do was ask them to go to the Edo Concession to rest and recuperate, and by the way, help us repair the concession and the base. ”

"Isn't that shameless, bastard!?"

In any case, the catastrophe was indeed over, and the Bretanians and Riberians had time to gather their fleets and sail together.

"Admiral Catherine, you're so lucky you're okay."

"But I'm not so lucky, the entire exile fleet is hopeless......"

At this time, Catherine was like a retired lady who failed to invest, and her whole person turned gray and white.

The appearance is even more miserable: there are blood and dust on his hair and face, and the clothes on his body are basically in tatters, and he can't get up when he sits on the ground, and the blood and mud and sand that flow out are mixed together, which is shocking to see.

To put it simply, it is a post-modern style of violent street eldest sister sitting on her kennel, complaining to another big brother who is doing well with a depressed face.

It sounds like a lot of downgrades in an instant......

"Ahem, Admiral Catherine, please don't be so discouraged, the efforts of the soldiers can't be in vain, not to mention that you still have so many people to lead."

"But without the fleet and the marines, what am I going to do to rebuild Riberia? The surviving soldiers and warships still need to rest, where else can I go in this hostile land? ”

"You can still go to Edo!"

"Edo?"

"That's right! Edo! Brittania was the first country to sign a treaty of friendship with the Toei shogunate, and I got a concession in the capital of Toei where you could rest, where you could buy all supplies, shipyards and dry docks to provide services, and a large number of foreign mercenaries to replenish your troops, what are you waiting for? ”

"Sounds ...... That's pretty good! ”

"That's it!"

Alexander, who was beside Lorraine, had a serious face, but he seemed to be able to see that he was rolling his eyes, and he was obviously skeptical of Lorraine's words.

Lorraine hurriedly signaled to this guy with his eyes, he must not let him ruin his own great cause, these Riberians are definitely a rare resource.

Catherine was obviously moved by Lorraine's words, in this strange country in the East, it is so desirable to have such a friendly place and so many service facilities.

The people of Riberia were in desperate need of a safe place to recuperate, and the Concession was clearly a good place to be.

"Then please, Admiral Lorraine! We will definitely pay you the price that satisfies you! ”

"It's easy to say, everything is going to the concession first."

"Well, thank you very much!"

Lorraine took the transport boat back to the flagship, and Alexander finally couldn't help but speak, "That's how you tricked the Riberians into helping to build the concession?" ”

"How can it be called a lie! It is with 120,000 sincerity that I invite them to come to the concession to rest, and of course there will be those facilities! ”

"Impossible, right? In just a few months, how could it be possible to complete so many large-scale buildings, without the ability of your Son of the Heavenly Kingdom, it would be absolutely impossible to accomplish all of this by relying on the left-behind officers and soldiers and the recruited Dongying people! ”

"So you're still too young." Lorraine ignored Alexander's gaze and continued, "I didn't say that those facilities were built according to Western standards, and they can be completely built in Dongying's local facilities. ”

"Toei's local facilities?" Alexander repeated, and couldn't help but roll his eyes, "If it's a local facility, you're not lying. ”

"Of course, I'm honest and wishful."

"You don't use the Oriental proverb like that! Moreover, the facilities used by the Dongying people themselves are useless, and they can't even build a gunboat, and they want to repair battleships...... After all, you're still a liar! ”

Such contempt and complaining have no effect on Lorraine, anyway, even if the Riberians are deceived, there is nowhere else to go, just come to the concession to work.

For the construction of the concession, Lorraine still has many ideas, at least complete schools, business areas, industrial areas, hospitals, arsenals, shipyards, etc., and it is best to allow 50,000 people to live without food and clothing.

To complete such a large project, it is definitely not possible for 10,000 people of the Eastern Army to complete it, and now if you encounter the Riberians, you will definitely die in a pit.

There must have been a sufficient number of talented and construction workers in the exile fleet, and their arrival in the concession would greatly speed up the construction and boost local consumption.

As for the possibility that Admiral Catherine would lose her temper, such a small problem would be easily solved - it would be a big deal for her to scold, and it would be effortless to admit her mistake with her head down, and at worst she would sacrifice her body and let her toss.

It's a little bit of a little bit to look forward to......

In this way, many aftermaths of Kyoto were left behind, and it took half a month for the combined fleets of the two countries to finally reach Edo Port.

The moment they saw the rivers and lakes, everyone was cheering, and they finally had a place to recuperate temporarily.

Only Admiral Catherine gritted her teeth, "What about the shipyards?" What about dry docks? And what about hospitals and arsenals? Where are those buildings!! ”

DR At the end of 1830, the Riberians came to the Edo Concession in Brittany.
