Chapter 436: Russo-Japanese War!

The World Expo in Vienna cost more than 9 million American dollars, as far as Li Mengyang's estimate is concerned, this must be a loss-making deal, but however, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is rich after all, let's just do our own business, anyway, Joseph I likes to steam, he will toss it.

Li Mengyang stayed in Europe for several months, he was not only staring at the World Expo in Vienna, he also went to European countries to do a visit, not to mention France and Britain, which were invited to visit before, and other countries such as Greece, Turkey, Persia, Romania, etc., anyway, they were busy enough.

And when they heard that their emperor husband had run to so many countries, the four concubines of the empire were a little unhappy, they felt that they had lost money, and they had already known that they had gone to play with their husbands and became tourists.

Well, it's cheaper for the female middle and female in the women's guard......

successfully ended his trip to Europe, so Li Mengyang, the emperor, naturally wanted to return to his lair, but at this time, something happened in the Far East.

Bang! Bang!

The sea is blue and the sky is blue, but the loud sound of the cannon is continuous!

I saw that on the surface of the ocean, dozens of warships were divided into two sides, shooting at each other frantically.

It can be seen very clearly that the ships on one side are larger, but there are fewer of them, while the ships on the other side are not too big, but there are many of them.

This is the sea off Keelung Harbor on the treasure island, and the two sides of the battle are naturally Tsarist Russia and Japan!

The smaller but larger ships are the ships of Tsarist Russia, after all, they are European powers, and they still have strength at sea. And the boat is small on the other side. Naturally, it's Japan. The island nation is just beginning to rise. Relatively speaking, the battleship side is still very poor.

The ships on both sides are old-fashioned wooden ships, although they are now more advanced than before, especially on the Tsarist side of Russia, which are basically steamships, and there are not many Japanese steamships, but when such warships are fighting, it depends on whose guns are more. Whoever has more guns will have the advantage.

Therefore, although the Russian warships are relatively few, and adding some small ships into it is about a dozen, but their battleships have more decks and more artillery, and the advantage of the battlefield is on their side!

"Nakasa Ito! Look! Our flagship Deer is badly damaged and is about to sink! ”

On the side of the Japanese battleship, on a medium-sized battleship, Heihachiro Togo was patting Ito on the shoulder.

"What?!" Ito hurriedly took the binoculars to look.

Sure enough, the flagship Mutsu on his side was about to die. In fact, this is also normal, after all, the level of Japanese naval warships is still a lot worse. Although there are many ships, the Russians are really powerful.

Didn't Ito Yuhiro and Togo Heihachiro kill that Naito Jiro before, but although these two guys were sentenced, the emperor pardoned them, so these two young people really looked like national heroes, and the emperor helped them.

As a result, the fate of these two young men changed dramatically, not only was they summoned by Emperor Meiji not long after, but they also rose through the ranks of the navy very quickly.

In fact, Japan's navy was also modernized very late, but however, the Satsuma Domain itself was engaged in maritime trade, and there was money to be made in maritime trade, and money was powerful, and the Japanese Navy itself was the self-reserve of the Satsuma Domain, so the development of the Japanese Navy was also very fast.

Although the ship is small, but the combat power is still okay, and ah, don't look at the small ship, not everyone can be the captain!

Yes, Ito Yuhiro is now the captain of the Akamaru, but he is still only a Nakasa, and Togo Heihachiro is the first mate, a junior Samura. You know, it's been a long time.

In Japan's seniority society, it is unbelievable that these two boys became 'Zuo' at such a young age, and they were also captains, but however, seeing that these two people were summoned by the emperor, it is still understandable.

So, it makes sense to watch people put on their plates, but not now......

"Saigo SAMA!"

The guy took the binoculars and looked into the distance, half of the flagship of the Kago'er was in the water, and he was in a hurry.

"Saigo SAMA!"

He wasn't the only one who shouted, but Togo Heihachiro, as well as the herald on the ship named Yamamoto Gonbei, all followed there.

I can't help but call, there is a big man on that deer, and his name is Saigo Congdao!

This Saigo Congdao, hey, by the way, you can know that he has a lot to do with Saigo Takamori, the two of them are brothers, and Saigo Congdao is also very powerful, he went to Europe to inspect the development of the European Navy in his early years, so he came back to prepare for the development of the Japanese Navy.

That's right, this man is actually the original founder of Japan's modern navy, and he is now the supreme commander of Japan's standing fleet!

So, the flagships are like this, how can this battle be fought?

"Everyone! Everyone! ......" Ito Yuheng shouted a few words, and gathered the people, the Akamaru at this time was also wounded, and the people on it were not much better, but but, "His Majesty the Emperor is on board!" We are going to die with the Russian warships today! ”

Fight like Kilkenny cats?

Don't even say it, this Akamaru suddenly sailed out of the queue of the Japanese standing fleet, and then rushed directly towards the battlefleet column on the Tsarist side!

"Oh God! Is this a madman? ”

At this time, a gunner named Makarov, who was serving on the Russian warship, saw a Japanese boat suddenly killed, so he let out such an emotion.

Indeed, such a reckless move is tantamount to suicide, but what people didn't expect was that maybe Ito Yuhen's ship skills were good, or he was lucky, or Apayasu had a blue eye for him, anyway, the angle at which his Akamaru rushed over this time was very strange, so that the Russian warship couldn't play its side guns for a while!

Now the Tsarist Navy and the Japanese Navy have to rely on the side guns to eat, and the cannons on this side can't hit it, it's really uncomfortable, Makarov watched the ship get closer and closer, and no matter how he adjusted the angle of the gun, the shells that were fired out sank into the sea.

And on the Akamaru, this is a joy.

"His Majesty the Emperor is onboard! Onboard! ”

"Onboard! Onboard! ”

Maybe it's not because of joy, or maybe this slogan is similar to the Boxers, and they can be invulnerable after shouting, but anyway, they rushed over this time!

It's a good situation, there is such a situation, and the Tsarist fleet is also very smart here, so we won't let you get close, let's go!

At first, it was just to temporarily distance themselves, but later, many Japanese ships began to imitate the Akamaru, which means that more ships began to break out of the sequence, and then rushed towards the side of Tsarist Russia without fear of death!

"! These people are all crazy people, right? Makarov sighed again, but he was only a petty official now, and he couldn't make any decisions at all.

But fortunately, the commander of the Tsarist side was not stupid, he commanded his warship and temporarily left the battlefield.

Let's not fight madmen!

In this way, the Akamaru can be said to have made a great contribution, and Saigo Congdao on the Luer, this guy's life is quite big, and he didn't die.

This scene of the naval battle made Yang Guangren in the distance see it, he was also on a ship at this time, and after watching it, his Yang Guangren's heart was a little uncomfortable. The reason is very simple, he led the Tsarist army into the treasure island this time, which is a bit morally wrong, and now, Tsarist Russia doesn't seem to have taken any advantage, how can this matter be rectified?

However, if you see someone else, then someone else's opinion is different.

"Mr. Yang! If you want me to say, just do it! Let's just do it with the little devils! ”

The person who spoke was the owner of this ship, and the name of this ship was Thunder, and his master was also called Thunder!

Of course, Xiaolong is definitely not a name, it's obviously a number, this number, the literati are called 'Yahao', but it's a boatrunner, so needless to say, this is a nickname, that identity......

"Xiaolong, the little devil is powerful, I'm afraid we can't do it alone." After all, Yang Guangren has seen a lot of the market, and he still has this kind of basic judgment.

"Then, then this ......" Xiaolong is a sea bandit, how much overall view can he have, but he just recognizes one, "The little devil is not a thing!" Lao Tzu fought with them! Let's go and avoid it first! ”

This one...... Of course, you can't let him rush over and fight, isn't that looking for death?

But it's quite interesting, although the naval battle off Keelung this time was a bit aggrieved, but after all, it was the Tsarist Russian Navy that was more powerful, and in the subsequent battles, they still beat the Japanese fleet.

In other words, with the superiority at sea, then the next step is the landing operation!

Keelung is the north of the treasure island, and the old Maozi of Tsarist Russia are not stupid, they also know that the sound of the east is attacking the west, so they landed the army in the south and arranged it in the south, that is, Kaohsiung!

This trick is really good, and it got 5,000 Tsarist soldiers at once!

Don't underestimate these 5,000 people, in 1840 it was only 6,000 people, and the previous Eight-Nation Coalition was only 10,000 people.

The matter of landing, that is the internal response of Yang Guangren's gang, so it is really smooth, and basically there is no loss on the part of Tsarist Russia.

This fight, don't you really say it, the combat effectiveness of the Tsarist Russian soldiers is really strong enough, and it really beat little Japan enough, and on the battlefield, I only saw little Japan charging with that kind of wild boar, but the effect was not great at all.

Yang Guangren saw it and was overjoyed, his strategy was successful, attracting the army of Tsarist Russia, and then killing Little Japan, so he will be able to get a piece of the many interests of the treasure island in the future, which is good, very good!

was originally very happy, but Yang Guangren never expected that the good times would not last long, and within a few months, the Tsarist side announced the withdrawal of troops!

Defeated?! (To be continued......)

PS: What's the use of this hand?!

Huh~
