Is it finally about to start?

Sitting there without saying a word, Tang Haoran's heart seemed a little nervous, after receiving the telegram of discovering the Second Pacific Fleet, his whole person was in this trance, for a moment, he even began to doubt all this, he even started to use submarines, torpedo boats to ambush, as for whether he could achieve the results of the battle, or how many results he could achieve, it was not his concern.

It's enough to hit the Russians hard!

Why are you afraid?

Why are you timid?

What is going on in your heart?

It's scared!

Are you afraid of losing your future?

No!

I'm afraid of losing the Navy, if I lose it......

Closing his eyes, Tang Haoran thought of Jia Wu in another time and space, and thought of China without a navy, even if it was a presence fleet.

If it is possible to inflict heavy damage on the Russians with small submarines and torpedo boats, then why risk the fleet?

Wouldn't it be better for the fleet to stay at home?

Be......

No!

No!

The fleet is for the offensive!

I must not tolerate the fleet as an existing fleet, the Zhenyang fleet wants to threaten the ocean, what are you doing at home? Counting ducks?

But your fleet has only been formed for ten years, no, your navy has only been formed for ten years, and your fleet is only a few years! Among your navy......

They have the courage to be generous for their country!

The resolute eyes of those naval officers and sailors once again appeared in his mind, and all the reasons and excuses became pale and weak, and even because of excitement, Tang Haoran's arms began to tremble.

It's not because of fear!

It's because of the excitement!

Yes, Tang Haoran was excited for those naval officers and soldiers, who could all spare their lives for the country. You can sacrifice everything for the country, what reason do you have to fear?

Isn't that what you're after? As long as this battle is won, China can leap from a regional second-power to a real power, and you. You can wave your army to the south and enter the customs for reunification, yes, no one will be able to stop you by then, not even Li Hongzhang...... He's dying.

Zhang Zhidong?

It's just an old man who is about to be eliminated by the times!

The time you've been longing for is ripe, what's there to worry about!

Yes, what is there to worry about!

You know, your navy is much stronger than Japan's!

With a wry smile, Tang Haoran showed for the first time that he was really incompetent. Incompetence to the extreme, once upon a time, when I saw that my dream was about to come true, I was timid, timid for no reason.

"What's so scary, it's just a few broken ships, sinking ......!"

With a long groan, Tang Haoran hung his head slightly. Look at that telegram.

"If it's sunk, you can build a new warship!"

At the same time as this thought came to mind. Tang Haoran immediately thought of the new type of warship developed by the Navy's Ship Administration Office -- a combat ship with unified main guns, that is, a well-known "dreadnought" in another time and space.

Very good!

Now that the Zhenyang fleet has already attacked, and it is inevitable that it will suffer serious losses, isn't there a saying about building more dreadnoughts? Overnight, dreadnoughts pulled the naval nations back to square one.

Money, where does the money come from?

Land can be sold!

The land in the Northeast can still be sold for billions of yuan!

Close your eyes. According to the introduction of that article, during the arms race, the total cost of the British Royal Navy's 51 capital ships from the "Dreadnought" to the "Hood" was 111 million pounds, a total of less than 1.1 billion yuan. What is there to worry about.

The value of cultivated land in the Northeast is more than 5 billion, and it will be able to ...... after reunification in the future Confiscation of flag property!

Well, money, no problem, as long as there is money, even if the Zhenyang fleet is finished, another fleet can be built. That's just the worst-case scenario!

No big deal!

Crumpled the unconsciously drafted telegram, threw it into the trash can on the side, and looked out the window, Tang Haoran's eyes were no longer distressed, and the rest was just calm, unusually calm.

"Leave everything to the front to decide!"

Thinking so in his heart, Tang Haoran sighed, yes, there is really nothing to care about, after comforting himself in his heart, he can accept any result, after all, this is not the first day, no matter what, even if the navy is defeated, what is it?

The army can win too!

"As long as I am alive, this country will never surrender without a fight, even if it is fought to the last man, I must persevere!"

Confidently spit out such a sentence, Tang Haoran's whole person relaxed, as long as he lived, even if the navy was defeated, he would never surrender, with Russia's national strength, could they continue the war indefinitely? It's nothing more than a return to square one.

What's the harm in going back to square one?

You know, more than ten years later, there is still a chance, even if you miss this opportunity, more than ten years later, the world war, there is still a chance, maybe, that time is easier or not necessarily.

Yes, what's there to dwell on, it's a big deal, just treat this war as a general exercise!

The question that has been pestering Tang Haoran seems to have disappeared at this moment, and he no longer worries about winning or losing, yes, winning or losing doesn't matter, the important thing is that this is not the last chance!

"What could be more gratifying than mastering history?"

Tang Haoran, who was completely relieved, looked at the globe in the office with a smile, when he saw this globe in the past, all he thought about was how to ensure the immediate interests, why not look farther? More than a dozen years later, there is more than one Russia, perhaps, there are many more!

Don't miss out on this opportunity!

At this moment, the phone on the table suddenly rang, and as soon as he picked up the phone casually, Tang Haoran knew that it was Rong Shangqian's call.

"Dashuai, they have arrived at the preset location!"

"Oh! I know! ”

Listening to Rong Shangqian's words, Tang Haoran just nodded. Then he heard him ask on the phone.

"Is there anything you want to say to them?"

Is there anything to say to them?

When he hung up the phone, Tang Haoran fell into silence, did he have anything to say to them?

Closing his eyes, Tang Haoran's mind came up with the young faces, the elite of the Northeast Navy in the past ten years are all 10,000 nautical miles away, for this battle. It's only been ten years since the founding of the army, and the Northeast Navy has staked everything, is there anything to say to them?

Finally, he picked up the pen and wrote a sentence on the paper, but after writing a few times, he was still not satisfied, there were more and more papers in the trash can, and finally, he even put down the pen a little helplessly. After closing his eyes and being silent for a long time, he suddenly seemed to have figured out something, and wrote on the letter, the content of the telegram was extremely simple, after writing this simple pre-war mobilization, Tang Haoran first nodded, then frowned, and finally picked up the pen suddenly. Another sentence was added to the letter.

Finally, he took the telegram and looked at it carefully for a while. Finally, he nodded with satisfaction, and a few minutes later, the telegram was sent out of Dalian.

At the same time as the radio waves in Dalian were emitted, in the red wall and green tiles of Biyun Temple in the western suburbs of Beijing, hidden in a lush forest of ancient trees, under the half-yellow and half-green ancient trees in the square courtyard of a quiet temple, several guests were talking there. As if they were discussing something, tea was boiling in a copper kettle on a small stove in front of them.

"If it's not bad as expected, the Zhenyang fleet shouldn't be in the East Ocean now!"

Zhang Peilun said casually. Li Guangguang's brows jumped slightly, but he tasted the tea without saying a word, as if it was not a problem for him.

The silence of the other party made Zhang Peilun's heart tighten, could it be that he guessed wrong, in fact, it was not he who "guessed", but those people in the Beiyang Fleet were guessing, they had studied in the Navy in the United States with Han Che and others, they knew Han Che, Akiyama, and the Northeast Navy, if the Beiyang Navy was biased because of the relationship between Lord Zhongtang, then the Northeast Navy was undoubtedly an offensive maritime power, and they were more inclined to take the initiative to attack, in the face of the Russian Second Pacific Fleet coming east, they would never sit idly by, Waiting for the main force of the Russian fleet to join forces in the harbor, they will certainly choose to take the initiative to attack at that time, and deal heavy damage to the Second Pacific Fleet through interception at sea, and then grasp the control of the sea in the East, but this is the problem -- no one knows where the main force of the Zhenyang Fleet is, and in the speculation of the outsiders, it is very likely that it will anchor somewhere on the Japanese outer islands that have been seized by the Chinese army. However, there is a speculation within Beiyang -- the Zhenyang fleet is very likely to have been deployed to Hawaii, and as for the so-called outer islands, it is just a trick.

"In my opinion, no matter where the Zhenyang fleet is, it must be preparing for victory in the war, and I am not a soldier, so I don't care about it!"

said such a sentence with half-truths and half-truths, Li Guangguang muttered in his heart, where is the Zhenyang fleet? This question used to come up in the newspapers, but even he didn't know where the Zhenyang fleet was.

In fact, this kind of speculation is in favor of the Northeast, after all, for the Russian Pacific Fleet trapped in Tokyo Bay, this kind of public speculation will increase their caution and make them more cautious, what if all this news is fake? If they desperately rush out of the mine blockade line, but they need to face the main force of the Zhenyang Fleet, what will be the result at that time, this is by no means something that the Pacific Fleet can bear.

It is precisely because of this that when facing inquiries from the outside world, Li Guangguang will always talk about "war preparations" in a vague way, this kind of trick, not to mention others, sometimes he himself believes it.

Gently putting down the teacup in his hand, Li Guangguang smiled slightly, looked at Zhang Peilun and said.

"Mr. Youqiao, I heard that the Beiyang Fleet has now entered combat readiness, I don't know who this combat readiness is for?"

After this rhetorical question, Li Guangguang looked thoughtful again.

"Now, one of the imperial court's Janissaries is in Zhang Heng, and the other is in Kulun, and there is intelligence that it is very likely to be instigated by the Russians, and then become enemies of us, and only the Manchu Tartars, so it is so, it is not a Chinese, and China's interests naturally have nothing to do with it, but if we wait for China to be driven by other countries, then it will be the ...... that Qianfu refers to."

After a pause, Li Guangguang's lips raised and he asked rhetorically.

"Mr. Youqiao, did you say yes?"

"This ......"

As Li Hongzhang's think tank, Zhang Peilun, who had gone through too many storms, was naturally not frightened by Li Guangguang, and he said very calmly.

"Some people do things because they are driven by others, and some people do things for the sake of their friends!"

With a solemn expression, Zhang Peilun said seriously.

"At present, it is still unknown where the main force of the Zhenyang Fleet is, but it is a fact that the current coastal defense of the Beiyang Sea is weak, and the reason why our Beiyang Fleet is preparing for war is precisely to solve the reality of the sea air defense, although our Beiyang Fleet is inferior to the Northeast, it must be China's fleet!"

Zhang Peilun deliberately added the words "Chinese fleet" in his words, and he knew very well that these officials in the Northeast did not regard the imperial court as the imperial court at all, of course, this does not mean that Beiyang has the imperial court in his heart, but Beiyang still maintains face, and the Northeast, which is the governor of the three provinces under the order of the imperial court, is also known as the "Manchu Qing". In their hearts, there is only one country, and that is China.

"Oh!"

His brows jumped slightly, and Li Guangguang stared at Zhang Peilun in front of him seriously, but just as he was about to ask, he heard him continue.

"Only in this way can we deal with the changes that are about to rise in the future!"

What is the change of his day?

This time, it was Li Guangguang's turn to be surprised, what could happen?

Looking at the person in front of him, Li Guangguang's heart immediately swelled with doubts, and at the same time, various information obtained in the past period of time appeared in his mind, and at this moment, he saw Zhang Peilun pour some tea on the stone table, and then write a few words on the stone table.

"Ahh

His eyes opened suddenly, Li Guangguang stared at Zhang Peilun, and raised his eyebrows sharply.

"You know, Mr. Youqiao, we will never accept any changes, at least not yet!"

What does he mean by that?

Thinking secretly in his heart, Li Guangguang's eyes looked directly at Zhang Peilun, as if he wanted to wait for his explanation, and the thing he just proposed was completely beyond his expectations, is this the meaning of Beiyang, or ......

"Since the beginning of the year, Nakado-sama's body has been getting worse day by day......

After a pause, a trace of pain appeared on Zhang Peilun's face, and finally he sighed again and said in a tone full of helplessness.

"Although the body of the Zhongtang is not as good as a day, since the Tang Marshal used troops against Russia, the Zhongtang has **** paid attention to this matter, although he is worried, but Zhongtang often says that if he can see the success of Tang Dashuai, this life will be enough! I take the liberty to ask for my brother! ”

Facing the other party's gaze, Zhang Peilun asked in a seemingly calm tone.

"I don't know when you can hear the news of your victory?" (To be continued.) )
