The message is very long, but also more detailed, that is, the northwest has a radio, will choose such a long message, of course, such a practice is not worth advocating, radio secrecy, in the military, the future will be mentioned in the direction of the focus, countries will pay more attention to this, cracking and anti-cracking, ciphers, etc., the longer the message, the more likely it is to be exposed, so future military orders, often with a shorter language, or some kind of tactical code to replace.

Of course, in this era when radio has not yet developed, long messages do not matter, and if there is no monitoring, there is no cracking, especially when the reliable distance of radio waves is still within 500 nautical miles, even in the bustling Europe, not many people will receive this signal.

The Four Pirate Groups, the Blood Skull, the Witch Group, the Demon Knight and Liu Zhongyu, and the above are also a brief introduction to the pirate group, Yang Yuanzhao was very surprised, in Southeast Asia, there is also a Chinese naval force, a little stunned, you can know that the development of the Chinese in Southeast Asia is all-round, from hundreds of years ago, to the present, many foundations are rooted here, the colonizers of the great powers, do not pay attention to the development of Southeast Asia, and they are also a little different from the country, more or less, but also give them opportunities for development, such as more study, workor even the opportunity to enter certain fields of study.

The pirates and the Chinese peasants in Southeast Asia, plus some young people who have mastered preliminary knowledge and even studied abroad and studied Western studies, are not the natural members of the navy, and it seems that in an instant, the problem of the source of naval forces that has been plaguing Yang Yuanzhao has been solved in a certain situation.

In Southeast Asia, I didn't pay much attention to the Chinese world. He put more on the colonizers, although this is more or less. It's because the plantations in Southeast Asia are secret. It wasn't until I went to Germany that I really developed outward, and I made a certain amount of contact with the outside world.

When Yang Yuanzhao considered it, he mainly based himself on the domestic market and inherited the old foundation of Beiyang, but in that case, it was inevitable that he would let go of the Fujian and Guangdong gangs, gain the upper hand in the navy, and form gangs. It is an inherent stubborn disease in China, because of the new political power in the northwest, coupled with the relative balance of power in all aspects, even if it is a powerful Jin Shang, it is not a monolith, and there is mountainism, but it is not obvious, it is more of a friendship between fellow villagers, and it will not have a big impact.

But the Navy. It is a highly professional type of troops, and many well-known generals in Beiyang, most of whose ancestral homes are in Fujian, such as the famous Dingzhen Second Ship. Their pipe bands are all from Fujian Houguan, and they are also from Houguan's pipe bands, as well as Jingyuan Lin Yongsheng and Jiyuan Fang Boqian. There are also Ye Zugui and Qiu Baoren, who were also born in Minhou, Fujian. It can be said that the Fujian people almost occupied most of the Beiyang Naval Division.

Fujian is the location of the Sailor School, and it is normal for there to be many locals. However, the clan concept and gang formation of the local people in Fujian directly affected the Beiyang Navy, Deng Shichang was one of them, also born in the Mawei Ship Master School, but he later expanded the enrollment, in Panyu, Guangdong and Hong Kong, these people were greatly excluded in the Beiyang, and even affected the expatriate study abroad in 1877. Yang Yuanzhao also considered the concept of clans, including now, Cheng Biguang is also from Guangdong, but most of the officers under his command are also Fujian, and even in the history of later generations, throughout the entire Republic of China, it cannot be solved.

Choosing them as a way out of the way does not mean that he agrees that if he can solve the concept of clans, with the talents of Nanyang, plus Fujian, plus the talents cultivated in other places, under the trinity, it seems that the problem of mountaineering and clans can be solved.

This is all later, Yang Yuanzhao hurriedly collected his thoughts, and continued to look at it, the whole strength of the pirates is very strong, one or two thousand ships, almost 80,000 people, this is very huge, the pirates' armament, some make him slightly disdainful, except for the flagships of the four major pirate groups, the rest, are not worth mentioning, most of the ships are small boats, thousand-ton class, small boats of several hundred tons abound, some small pirates, in order to make up the number, even ordinary fishing boats. If it weren't for those four ironclad ships, I'm afraid that with a few ships, we would have been able to send them all to the sea with machine guns.

With these four iron bumps, high-speed, carrier machine guns, and even some large-caliber artillery ships, they can't leave the ship regiment lightly, and the high-speed ships that attack alone are easy to be besieged by four ironclad ships, 100mm guns, machine guns, these things, for ordinary pirate ships, for these ironclad ships, there is not much threat at all, and even the guns on these ironclad ships, even if they are 30 years ago, are also military, for most of the ships of the ship group, There is a huge threat.

At present, the easiest threat to the ironclad ship is the torpedo, most of the torpedoes are just launch tubes, few are placed on the ship, during the British and German investigations, Yang Yuanzhao also copied some ship torpedo launchers, this thing is fixed on the ship, can be installed to the tail or the bow, it stands to reason that it is the best way to deal with this thing, but unfortunately in the current fleet, there are no naval soldiers who are skilled in using them, in this case, unless borrowed from Germany, otherwise, even if the torpedo is loaded, It doesn't work at all.

Instead of borrowing torpedo launchers from the Germans, it is better to let the destroyers help, it should not be difficult to think about this, these four ironclad ships, as flagships, will definitely not rush up at the first time, of course, let the German destroyers as the main force, this is also unrealistic, only when the artillery fire of the ship regiment gives the pirates huge losses, in order to break the balance between the two sides, the pirates will rush up. At this time, as long as the communication is well communicated in advance, Andrei will definitely make a choice after seeing the firepower and power of the ship. It is not easy to send carbon in the snow, and too many people are willing to do the things that add to the scene.

The ship continued to move forward, the time of the day passed in a flash, both came and went, and the communication with Andre was very successful, no matter what, Yang Yuanzhao was valued by Germany, when Fabian and they moved to the destroyer, Andre also sent an invitation to Yang Yuanzhao, even if there was a problem with the ship group they were responsible for guarding, Yang Yuanzhao's safety must be guaranteed.

Yang Yuanzhao finally rejected them, on the one hand, he was confident in the protection and soldiers of the ship regiment, on the other hand, there was such an internal response as Xiao Jianfei, even for those 3000-ton ironclad ships, the 203 gun also had a considerable threat, and the 203 gun was placed on a civilian ship, and at most there was only a few guns to fire time, which was enough to pose a huge threat to the ship.

The steamer brought by Xiao Jianfeng is said to be an old ship 10 years ago, but it is the mainstream fast steamer of this era, and the shipper is also very cherished in the use after getting it, and after adding some artillery and converting it into an armed merchant ship, the combat effectiveness is quite strong, and it is used as the main force by pirates, and it is arranged in a position that is relatively close to the four flagships.

Although the pirates were on guard, they would not have thought that this armed merchant ship was not only a few small guns on the surface, but also a few big guys, 203 guns, and it was definitely the main artillery. With a calculus or not, at a distance of about one or two kilometers, aiming at the attack, not to mention these old-fashioned, old-style ironclad ships of about 3,000 tons, even if they are cutting-edge destroyers like the Haiqi, they can't stand such an attack. It was a cutting-edge high-speed cruiser, much more powerful than a destroyer.

Itself, Yang Yuanzhao is on the side of the ship regiment, doing strict protection, three layers of protection, thousands of twin 20 mm machine guns, and there are enough 50 base machine shells, it can be said that this battle, if nothing else, will not use so many artillery at all, under normal circumstances, high-intensity war, prepare 10, 12 base artillery, has been calculated to be extremely strong, 50 bases, I am afraid that after the fight, the barrel is basically abolished.

The boat group entered the Strait of Malacca, followed a direction of the strait, and sailed to this sea area, even if it was reminded earlier, Yang Yuanzhao still couldn't see that sea area clearly in the night, according to the established goal, he would not stay in Penang, but directly through the Strait of Malacca overnight, to Singapore, that is to say, even if it is a 24-hour day and night trip, it will take at least one or two days to reach Singapore.

The night gradually fell, the surrounding land, shrouded in shadows by the night, far away can not see a qiē, the destroyer turned on the searchlight, but in the night, the dripping lights, can not illuminate a qiē at all, there is nothing to be seen around, the speed of the fleet has also decreased, and they are relatively close to each other.

When they were about to arrive at the direction of Xiao Jianfeng's point, the British destroyers in front seemed to have changed, they followed the speed of the ship group, a little slower, and the already weak defense line seemed to be hollow in an instant, and a huge gap appeared, and the position of the gap was exactly opposite the closest land position of the ship group.

Yang Yuanzhao quickly became vigilant, at this time he was responsible for observing and observing the movements of the British army, and also followed the first time to pay attention to the surroundings, obviously, this is one of the early warning signals, if it is replaced by ordinary people, under the cover of the night, even if it is encountered, it is not easy to find, but for Yang Yuanzhao, this is not a problem at all, the night vision goggles brought from later generations, plus the research of the northwest, has a basic effect, and can be found in the night, the surrounding movements are more clearly found, especially the direction of the British destroyer.

On the top of one of the destroyers, there seems to be someone holding a light, waving it regularly, obviously, this is a signal to the shore, finally came, the ship group has finally determined, the British destroyer will not take the initiative, but will create some kind of opportunity for the pirates, at this time, it is their best chance, under the cover of night, they can approach a considerable distance without being detected, and the British destroyer, so that the overall protection, there is a huge gap, convenient for them to enter without hindrance, In their eyes, this huge fleet is like a delicious feast, waiting for them to share.
