All of a sudden, the Victoria's operational command room was filled with laughter and a lively atmosphere, and every senior British general thought that the soldiers sent by Bodrun might see a very hilarious scene—a huge military port was empty, and a few poor little warships were moored there......

In the end, it was Lawrence who slapped the table: "Silence! Well, jokes aside, things still have to be done. Pen Fun Cabinet www.biquge.info otherwise those politicians in the parliament will not be easy to deal with. Bodren, you arrange it as soon as possible. I'll go to see it later, and I'll come back to report. Let's take a break and try to launch a full-scale offensive early tomorrow morning! ”

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

So, after a while. From the huge fleet of the British army, an armed steamboat left the large army alone, and headed towards the Longteng Harbor of the Chinese Divine Kingdom at the fastest speed......

The armed steamboats of the British Navy are actually very similar to the steel steam patrol boats newly developed by the Chinese Divine Kingdom. The two are almost copies of each other. It's just that the speed of arming the steamboat is faster and lighter, and the corresponding weapons and equipment need to be improved.

There were almost ten elite scouts on board the armed steamboat, all of whom had been through a long battle. For this military intelligence investigation mission, they are very relaxed, and even scoffed.

Who doesn't know that the Huaxia Divine Kingdom is now empty of troops? In particular, the navy is almost all thousands of miles away in Southeast Asia......

"The British Empire, the British Empire, the sun never sets! The sun shines forever, our land. Armadada, Arada, Battle the World! Royal Navy, fight for the King! ”

The British naval scouts on the armed steamboat were all singing loudly on the open deck, looking very hilarious. There is no sense of danger and vigilance in the reconnaissance of the "enemy's" base camp at all. Basically, they all think of this as a short trip to the sea......

The speed of the armed steamboat was a little faster than that of the battleship, so it didn't take long for it to get close to Longteng Harbor.

It's noon, so the sun is shining. The cloudless and sunny weather allowed for high visibility on the sea. At this time, the British soldiers on the armed steamboat were a little less playful and more vigilant.

Lieutenant Brewer, a British naval lieutenant in charge of this reconnaissance operation, instructed: "Although the main military force of this heretical Chinese country is not in the country, the combat effectiveness of the unit cannot be underestimated. Let's pay attention, but don't capsize in the gutter. In case the other side comes with three or four patrol boats, it will also be troublesome. ”

Brewer's deputy, James, agreed: "Yes! Although they have few troops, it is not a big problem to take out our armed steamboat. Let's not be caught by those heretical barbarians, we're civilized! ”

The other scouts cheered up and nodded their heads in agreement. will come up with the quality of a scout in the Royal Navy of the British Empire.

On the endless blue sea, this small British armed steamboat rode the wind and waves towards Longteng Harbor.

Getting closer, getting closer......

Even these British soldiers have clearly seen with the naked eye some of the facilities of some large mooring ports in Longteng Harbor, but they still haven't even seen a patrol boat!

They are the second monk who is confused.

"Grass! It's weird. How could there not even be a patrol boat? We didn't even use our superb dodging and concealment skills. ”

"Yes! Could it be that these heretical Chinese people have completely broken the jar and given up resistance? ”

These guys are talking a lot.

A puzzled look flashed on Brewer's face, and he ordered: "Continue to advance cautiously and see what the enemy is up to......"

So, the armed steamboat continued to move forward as if it were sailing through the silent uninhabited sea.

Finally, they actually went straight to the real port area. Still met with no resistance...... Even in the entire huge military port, there are almost no people!

The huge Longteng Port is like an abandoned military port. There were no voices, only the sound of waves washing.

The berths of the large warships, which were originally parallel rows of moorings, were also empty, and only a few steam ships and sailing ships of small tonnage could be seen at a relatively distance to the left and right - presumably left behind without participating in the expedition to Southeast Asia.

What's going on?!

The British scouts on the armed steamboat were completely confused. The scene in front of them was so strange that they couldn't understand it.

One of the scouts frowned and said, "That...... Could it be that the Chinese people were really scared, so they gave up the port. Don't fight with us at sea and retreat to land, right? ”

The other British soldiers also shouted that it was reasonable, after all, the navy could not fight without warships, and it was possible to reluctantly launch a "crowd tactic" or something on land.

Brewer looked around, and he didn't know why a faint sense of unease and danger rose in his heart!

He couldn't say why, but he just felt uneasy, and the Longteng Harbor in front of him seemed to be a huge trap. It's like the devil has a big open mouth, just waiting for ignorant food to come in......

So Brewer decisively ordered: "Go some distance to the berth of the enemy's warship and take a look, if there is still no movement, let's go back." Reflect the situation here to the above. It's a bit weird indeed. ”

James also agreed with the decision of his superiors, and their mission had been accomplished anyway. As long as the situation in Longteng Port is fed back realistically, as for the conspiracy of the Chinese hidden behind it, whether or not they need to deal with it, these complicated things are the problems that the bigwigs above need to think about.

Armed steamboats moving forward, even these conceited and arrogant Britons had to sigh that the navy of the Huaxia Divine Kingdom was strong! The berths of the warships were built very wide, and it can be seen from the steel brackets and lifting equipment next to them that the warships that were supposed to stay here must have a large tonnage and excellent heavy weapons and ......equipment.

"Tsk, the speed of development in this eastern country is indeed very fast. No wonder he dared to go on an expedition to Southeast Asia and took away the Strait of Malacca under the control of the British Empire. ”

"Hey, so what? Their own country will be occupied by our British Empire, and when the time comes, they will be destroyed! On the other side of Southeast Asia, there can only be a government-in-exile. ”

The scouts found that the surroundings were still calm and relaxed.

But they didn't even realize that beneath the calm sea, in the deep blue waters beneath their armed steamboats. A terrifying behemoth was swimming up from the bottom of the sea at a rapid pace...... (From now on, please call me 4 more brother!) (To be continued.) )
