Chapter 148: The Arrival of the Fleet (Part II)
Duan Zhengzhi's face was flushed, and he strode to Gao Yang's side with a happy face, looking at Gao Yang with an indifferent face, a resolute face, and inadvertently exuding a mighty aura. I sighed softly in my heart!
At the time of the first noon, Duan was in charge of the Beiyang Army! At that time, Duan Zheng, who was in the prime of life, was completely annihilated by the Beiyang Fleet, and when the whole country was wailing, he secretly swore that he would be doubly ashamed in the future!
Thirty years have passed, and the already aging Duan Zheng has watched the Japanese become stronger and stronger, while his own side is even weaker than before! The heartbroken Duan Zhizhi thought that he was hopeless in this life, but he didn't expect that Gao Yang was born!
In Duan's decades of life experience, he has never seen a character like Gao Yang! Even Yuan Gongbao, who he used to admire the most, is far inferior to Gao Yang!
Gao Yang is different from most of the powerful factions, when everyone is desperately trying to make money, he is spending money generously!
When everyone else is drinking the blood of the soldiers and eating empty quotas. Gaoyang has increased the treatment of officers and soldiers, and the actual salary is real, and the treatment is preferential!
Others are tyrannical and desperate to collect taxes. It's like some guys in Sichuan have taxed for fifty years! Gaoyang is constantly reducing taxes and paying taxes, and at the same time contributing money to support the development of national industry!
When everyone is busy building bungalows, riding BMWs, and marrying their aunts one after another. Gao Yang lived alone in the small garrison headquarters, and almost every meal was a standard military meal, advancing and retreating with the officers and soldiers!
When everyone is thinking about hugging the thick legs of foreign adults, Gao Yang is doing a lot of business with foreigners! The huge wealth earned has been used to develop people's livelihood. Enhance the armament!
Twenty million pounds! This kind of astronomical wealth is thrown out to buy a warship without blinking an eye! Reforge the second in Asia and the fourth in the world!
Light taxation. Raise male soldiers, benefit the people, and raise the prestige of the country! This is the person who is born destined to do great things! Those rats who jumped up and down and hooked up everywhere didn't even deserve to lift his shoes!
Wood shows in the forest! Gao Yang's strength has long aroused the fear and jealousy of many warlords in various places! Many people are secretly colluding everywhere in an attempt to organize a huge anti-Gaoyang alliance!
"Insufficient success, more than failure!" Duan Zhizhi scolded in his heart. Gao Yang has already set his sights on the thousand-year-old enemy of the Japanese, and these guys are still thinking about dragging him back!
"Old Duan Zhi. It will be a while before the fleet arrives. You don't have to be in such a hurry, let's go back and sit down for a while and have a cup of tea. Gao Yang looked at Duan Zhengzhi, who was standing beside him, with a change of expression on his face, and said with a chuckle.
"Huh. It's thick. I'm fine. I never thought I'd see the Grand Fleet again in my lifetime! Glad! Glad! Rejoice! Duan Zhengzhi's face was flushed, and his voice was trembling slightly.
"Don't get too excited, don't pay attention to your body. And that's just the beginning! Our country will be even stronger in the future! Gao Yang stretched out his hand to support Duan Zhengzhi and said with a smile on his face.
"Zi Hou. You have to watch out for the villains who are secretly doing shady things! You can't let them hold you back! Duan Zhizhi hesitated for a moment. finally opened his mouth and said to Gao Yang.
"Huh." Gao Yang chuckled, with a hint of disdain on his face, and said indifferently, "You old man, don't worry, I know everything they do!" It's just that there's no time to deal with them right now! When I solve the threat of the Japanese and free my hands, when the time comes, hum! Gao Yang's words revealed a hint of coldness.
"Well, then I won't say anything more. Zihou, I'm here to say something to you. Thank you! Duan Zhizhi held Gao Yang's hand and said with a serious face.
"Old Duan Zhi. You can torture me, I dare not do it! Gao Yang's mouth was modest, but there was a look of peace on his face. Youthful and vigorous! Proud!
There is only a faint figure of a warship between the sea and the sky, and it will take several hours for the ship to reach the shore. Gao Yang returned to his seat and sat down, took out a pair of tyrannosaurus sunglasses and put them on, bowed his head slightly, closed his eyes and recuperated.
In the garrison headquarters, Zhang Ziyun was in the dormitory with Li Ruoxi's words! After learning that Li Ruoxi entered Gao Yang's room yesterday, Zhang Ziyun almost went crazy with jealousy!
In Zhang Ziyun's heart, the most heavily defended room in the entire headquarters was Gao Yang's room! There must be a big secret of Gao Yang in there! It is even possible to put the molecular formula of penicillin!
As if he had been scratched by a cat in his heart, Zhang Ziyun pretended to laugh and used professional words to cover Li Ruoxi's words.
It's a pity that the words of the past have not worked this time! Li Ruoxi's heart was full of the woman in the pictorial, and she didn't listen to her words at all!
Just when Zhang Ziyun's face became more and more gloomy, there was a knock on the door.
"Huh?" Both of them in the room were stunned. Today is the great day of the fleet's arrival, and there is no one in the headquarters except for the people and guards on duty everywhere. Who will be looking for them at this time?
Zhang Ziyun got up and opened the door, and standing outside was the deputy captain of the guard who stayed at the headquarters.
"Hehe, you're all here." The vice captain's eyes swept over Li Ruoxi, who was sitting on the bed with his head bowed, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile.
"Huh? Vice Captain Zhou, do you have anything to do? Zhang Ziyun asked with a strand of hair and a smile on his face.
Deputy Captain Zhou coughed lightly and said with a smile, "Ahem, that's the case, the room of the High Overseer was not cleaned yesterday. I'd like to ask Miss Li to take the "
"I'm not going!" Before he could say anything, Li Ruoxi raised his head and said with a slight pout. With a hint of grumbling and sadness on her face, she didn't want to see that pictorial at all!
"Ugh!" Vice Captain Zhou was stunned, what's going on? He had heard Captain Li talk about Gao Yang and Li Ruoxi yesterday.
He thought that in the future, Li Ruoxi would take over the work of cleaning the Overseer's room, which would also allow the young men of the internal guard to be relieved.
"Ruoxi! Doing something for the High Overseer, how can you refuse! Zhang Ziyun forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart and reprimanded with a serious face.
Li Ruoxi lowered her head slightly, bit her lip lightly, and had an aggrieved expression. Zhang Ziyun's eyes wandered, he turned his head to look at Deputy Captain Zhou and said with a chuckle, "Ruoxi is in a bad mood, why don't you let me clean the room for the High Overseer." ”
Zhang Ziyun clenched his fists slightly, his snort unconsciously increased, his eyes flickered, and he looked at Vice Captain Zhou with a look of hope.
Vice Captain Zhou frowned slightly and glanced at Zhang Ziyun. After thinking about it, he shook his head lightly and said, "No, the Overseer's room can't be entered by idle people. ”
"Miscellaneous people waiting for ???" Zhang Ziyun clenched his silver teeth, his body trembled slightly, and the smile on his face instantly froze. I am an idle person, etc??? Zhang Ziyun felt that his lungs were about to be blown up!
"I'll go." Li Ruoxi stood up expressionlessly and said with a slight puff out. Vice Captain Zhou's words just now made her heart secretly welled up with joy, she was not an idle person in the heart of the High Overseer! She didn't know what she would feel happy about, and she bit her lip and thought that she was just going to clean the room!
Zhang Ziyun hung his hands beside him and clenched his fists. The expression on his face changed uncertainly, and he suddenly chuckled and said, "Ruoxi, I'll help you carry water outside the door." All right? The last sentence was asked by Vice Captain Zhou.
Vice Captain Zhou thought about it and nodded slightly.
Before lunch, the long-awaited fleet finally arrived at the port! There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone rushed forward, all wanting to get closer to the big ship! The guards all looked nervous and began to desperately maintain order on the scene!
Looking at the majestic giant ship slowly approaching the dock under the towing of the tugboat, even Gao Yang, who was accustomed to seeing industrial miracles in modern time and space, was slightly surprised. Not to mention those locals!
Sir Maks stood in the crowd and looked at these super battleships, chuckling proudly and nodding, this is the strength of the British Empire! Even if we don't want the old goods, it is the pinnacle of existence that cannot be surpassed by you!
One giant ship after another slowly approached the deep-water military dock that had been urgently forced to rest! Luckily, the water is deep enough for them to dock.
Four Iron Dukes! Three George V! An aircraft carrier! Eight towering warships with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons docked at the pier one after another. It was followed by dozens of auxiliary ships of various sizes.
The masts of the battleship Iron Duke, which was nearly 100 meters high, were hung with colorful flags, and the sides of the ship were full of British sailors in blue and white sea soul shirts!
When they docked on the dock, the nearly two hundred meters long made Gao Yang's eyes twitch slightly. "It's too big!"
This is the pinnacle of industrial products of this era? Gao Yang nodded slightly, very good! That's what you need!
"The smallest space battleship in my storage space is also several kilometers long!" Origin suddenly said aloud.
"Don't tell me this at this time!" Gao Yang's face stiffened, and he said indignantly.
After docking, the gangway of the Iron Duke was lowered. The interim commander of this fleet, Richard . Vice Admiral Dawson stepped off the battleship accompanied by a group of officers!
General Dawson, who was burly, with a dark complexion, wearing a snow-white general's dress and white gloves, glanced at Gao Yang, who was surrounded by everyone!
Sir Mok hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd, stepped forward quickly, and after talking to General Dawson, led the general to Gao Yang.
"General Gao! This is the Royal Navy of the British Empire Richard. Lieutenant General Dawson! General Dawson is the commander of this expeditionary fleet! Sir Make raised his head slightly, his face was bright, and he said with a proud expression.
Gao Yang curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and nodded slightly to General Dawson. He chuckled and said, "General, you have worked hard. ”
General Dawson looked at Gao Yang unabashedly! Even in Europe, Gaoyang has a huge reputation! His story is legendary! General Dawson was also very interested in Gao Yang.
After the two sides exchanged military salutes, General Dawson said with a serious face, "General Gao! I have been ordered by His Royal Highness King George V to bring all the fleets purchased by your country safely to the designated place in the magic capital within thirty days! Now I've done it! ”
Gao Yang nodded slightly, with a cold expression on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Then let's start inspecting the goods!" (To be continued......)
