"What did the master say?" Wu Erzhu asked curiously.

"The head of the meeting said that you can tell them about the general situation, these people mainly want a definite result, you can tell them, and the details will be reported at a press conference at the first meeting." Zhou Wu said.

"Nacheng, you are good at this kind of thing, and it is easy to control the proportions, so you should go and talk to those reporters." Wu Erzhu said.

"Okay, then I'll go talk to them." After saying that, he called his guard and drove to the entrance of the dock.

Wu Erzhu looked at Zhou Wu who was walking away, and thought in his heart, Zhou Wu, this guy is absolutely loyal to the master, but that face usually doesn't smile much, and when he sees an old acquaintance, he usually has a smiling face, usually with an expression that no one wants to enter, plus the mess he manages, the yin qi is heavier, sometimes he feels cold around him, Zhou Wu is not very old, but now he feels like a middle-aged man, calm and calm, but no vitality, he and he don't laugh at him. Otherwise, I really think that I, Wu Erzhu, are talking to you for that kind of thing, I will be afraid to call the master.

No matter how bored Wu Erzhu was there, he complained about Zhou Wu by himself. Zhou Wu drove to the entrance of the dock at this time.

Zhou Wu stood there, dressed in a straight military uniform, with the rank of major general, people knew at a glance that it was a character, "Everyone, on behalf of Guo Yu to supervise the army, on behalf of Hua Fujun, I tell you a few things that you want to know the most, let me explain in advance, I don't accept questions, I only say things once." ”

Zhou Wu's words made all the dozens of people present silent, and the scene was silent for a while.

Zhou Wu said, "In the early hours of tonight, the Huafu fleet and the Japanese Second Fleet engaged in a naval battle in the East China Sea, and the Huafu fleet completely annihilated the Japanese Second Fleet, including sinking 10 warships and capturing three and their auxiliary ships. At this point, the Japanese Second Fleet was completely annihilated. ”

"The second is that Guo Yu asked me to tell you that at the right time, a press conference will be held to inform the outside world of the details of this naval battle. I'm done talking, so please come back. ”

The scene fell silent for a few seconds. After the people digested the shocking news, there were huge cheers from the scene.

"This general, is this true, the Japanese fleet has been completely annihilated, may I ask whose fleet is the Huafu fleet."

"Can you show us the captured Japanese warships, our newspaper is going to publish this on the front page tomorrow, and I'll go in and take a picture."

"May I ask if Marshal Guo Yu is here to command the battle."

"Can we interview the officers and men of the Huafu fleet?"

The scene became noisy for a while, and everyone asked what they wanted to know. The content of such a heavy thing is too much, and these people want to know more and more about it.

Zhou Wu didn't care what problems these people at the scene had, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and went straight away, got in the car and returned to the direction of the dock.

Seeing that the main owner was gone, these people slowly calmed down, and some of them said: "Let's go back to typesetting, this information is enough to make headlines and cause a sensation." ”

People also realize that there is probably nothing left to inquire about here. Let's go back and report the situation.

Boom, these people get on the bus, and the bikers ride bicycles. After a while, they all disappeared outside the docks. It didn't take long for a new round of radio wave frenzy to float over the Republic of China again.

Inside the British Consulate in Shanghai, George was reporting to the three consuls about his inquire.

Jensen said loudly with an expression of disbelief, "George, are you sure you are not wrong, the Japanese fleet has really been completely annihilated. ”

George replied, "Yes, Consul Jensen, I heard very clearly, which general named Zhou Wu personally came out to say it. I don't think they could have lied on such a big thing. ”

Alder said, "I also know Zhou Wu. It was an important general under Guo Yu, and if he came out in person to confirm the matter. That should be true, I really didn't expect that Guo Yu had such a powerful naval force in his hands, which really surprised me. ”

French Consul François also said, "It seems that what we just said has been verified, this Guo Yu does have strong strength, or there are strong forces to support him." ”

The faces of the three of them are not very good, because the more powerful the soldiers of the Republic of China, the less secure their interests in China are, after all, colonization is a long-term business, and if there are strong local forces, it will affect the development of colonial interests in the future.

"I think it is necessary to inform the country about this situation, this Guo Yu is growing up too fast, I am afraid that it will be out of our control at that time, I really have some doubts that the government of the Republic of China will change because of the emergence of such a person." Alder said.

"Since there has been a war, this matter will not be so easy to solve, let's continue to watch, there will always be one side to win, and it is not too late for us to bet." This was stated by the French consul François.

"Then let's get here, it's about to dawn, and I guess there's still a lot of work to do after dawn, so let's disperse." Jensen said.

Although the three of them ended the party, they did not have time to rest, a powerful warlord of the Republic of China had a war with Japan, what kind of consequences would this have, how much impact it would have on his country's interests in China, whether the country needed to adjust its investment and attitude in China, what kind of attitude should it adopt in this matter, whether to support one side or maintain neutrality, all need to be considered by the high-level people in China, and the most important thing now is to send this matter back to China as much as possible.

Inside the Grand Presidential Palace in Beijing.

"President, there is a telegram from Shanghai, please read it." A confidential secretary came in and handed Li Yuanhong a telegram.

Li Yuanhong picked up the telegram and read it quietly, although the voice was small, the other two people in the room could hear it clearly, "There was a naval battle outside Shanghai Port in the early hours of tonight, and General Zhou Wu of the Huafu Army came forward to confirm that the Huafu fleet completely annihilated the Japanese Second Navy, and the Japanese Navy sank 10 warships, captured 3 and its auxiliary ships, in addition, Guo Yu is ready to hold a press conference at an appropriate time to announce the matter. ”

Although Li Yuanhong's voice was small, it was as loud as thunder in his ears, since he felt a little dizzy, once upon a time, the Republic of China had such a powerful navy.

Duan Qirui couldn't believe it, and wanted to step forward and take the telegram to see for himself, but Feng Guozhang moved faster than him, and at this time, he didn't care about any courtesy, and took the telegram from Li Yuanhong's hand and read it, the more he looked at it, the happier he became, although it was only a few short words, but Feng Guozhang read it 5 times, and finally laughed with the telegram.

Although these people have their own selfish intentions, they are Chinese after all, and they are the leaders of the Republic of China, and they are happy from the bottom of their bones that their country's fleet can defeat the Japanese navy. How can they not want their country to be strong and prosperous, and how can they be willing to be oppressed by the great powers, and only when they sit in this position can they truly feel the feeling that they cannot be fired, that they cannot stretch their ambitions, and they cannot exert their strength.

Now that I suddenly saw such a happy thing, how could I not laugh a few times not to vent the depression in my heart.

"Okay, good fight, Little Japan also has today, today they met Zhong Kui as a ghost, just let Guo Yu, a wicked person, frustrate their arrogance, and let them know that our Republic of China also has capable people." Feng Guozhang said loudly.

"Don't you two have a grudge?" Duan Qirui teased.

"National hatred and private hatred can't be confused, in fact, speaking of which, Guo Yu may have been merciful at the beginning, didn't he return Zhejiang after occupying it, it means that he can't fight, it is estimated that he doesn't want to fight, why did he fall in love with Jiangsu, it's really unlucky." Feng Guozhang said depressedly.

The three of them laughed again.

Several secretaries who were waiting outside heard such laughter from the three national giants in the room, and they all looked at each other a few times, and one of them whispered: "I have never heard the president and the prime minister laugh like this." ”

"Isn't this a great good thing, the Japanese fleet was completely annihilated, and such a happy thing is naturally happy."

"It's unbelievable, that Guo Yu overseer really dares to fight, do you think he is a dumbfounder, have you thought about what to do if you lose the battle before."

"What about your fart, Guo Yu Overseer is now my idol, you should be careful when you speak."

"Brother Guo, I also admire Guo Dashuai, but I'm just quick to talk for a while."

In order to ease the atmosphere, another person on the side said: "Lao Guo, you are really protective of this family that you have never met." ”

"It doesn't matter if he is my own family or not, as long as he can raise the prestige of my country and export evil anger for our country, I will defend him."

After the three giants in the room finished laughing, they began to think of something deeper, these veteran politicians, not young people, don't care about it as soon as their brains are hot, they see something deeper through this matter, and the amount of information revealed in it is very large, and these people need to think about it.

"We removed Guo Yu from his position as the overseer of Jiangsu because of the pressure of the Japanese, do you think he will be reversed?" Feng Guozhang asked.

Li Yuanhong frowned when he heard this, and then stretched out again, and said: "What is there to oppose, our Republic of China is a democratic republic, he can participate in the election by himself, even if the people elect him, it is not impossible for him to be the president." ”

Although Li Yuanhong has only been the president for a short time, he knows very well the difficulties of this president, it is like sitting on a powder keg, there are problems everywhere, and there is no real power, in fact, what the current Republic of China needs most is a strong person in power, vigorously turn things around, defeat the complicated and complicated forces of the Republic of China, and establish a truly unified country.

At this moment, Li Yuanhong suddenly felt that it might be possible for someone like Guo Yu to be the president, and maybe it could really achieve real reunification.

Duan Qirui thought for a while and did not continue the topic, he said: "This matter is not over yet, the Japanese side has not yet responded, this matter cannot end like this, let's wait and see the next development." (To be continued)
