Chapter 14: The Grand Plan

Boss Yang is making trouble in Europe, and the purpose is to go back to the Qing Dynasty in the end, which is his ideal in life, but if a person like him wants to go to China at this time to develop, that is the real death! In a few days, maybe there will not even be any bones left, whether admit it or not, Europe at this time is still much more civilized than the pigtails that regard merchants as pigs and sheep, and it is also much more civilized than the New World, which is crazy to rob money, this is a place with the highest security, gather their own capital in Europe, and then kill it back at a suitable opportunity.

This opportune opportunity is Jia Wu.

His plan is to get a mercenary, or arm a group of overseas Chinese, and then kill back in the name of helping to rob while the fire is on, for example, Taiwan is a very suitable place for his own plunder, and when Li Er's devil is defeated and has to cede Taiwan, he will lead people to defend Taiwan, of course, not to engage in Tang Jingsong's set of things without a king and no father, to be resolutely loyal to the imperial court, loyal to the queen mother, and when Kang Liang's gang of rebels and thieves disrupt the dynasty, he will take the opportunity to extend his claws to the mainland, as for who to help, let's talk about it when the time comes. See who benefits themselves more.

However, in this case, it is necessary to let Li Er's devil consume the strength of the Japanese to the maximum, and it is best to fight with them to lose both, if the Beiyang Naval Division can die with the combined fleet, it will be perfect, and then kill the Japanese army of 35,000, and then it will be very easy to operate.

So you have to sell arms, grenades, automatic pistols, and mortars to Beiyang first, speaking of which, there are still a few people under Li Er's subordinates who really want to fight, just like Nie Shicheng, Zuo Guigui, Zhang Gaoyuan, but the level is limited, and the war is still the old brains of Ping Changmao, so the Japanese are pressed on the ground and beaten violently.

Besides, the number of people is also a little less, in the entire system that is about to collapse, such a few people are not only not capable of turning the tide, but they will also take their lives if they don't get it, and equip them with some advanced weapons, at least the loss will not be too ugly, for example, Zuo Guigui, if you get him a dozen 82mm mortars, it is estimated that he can still teach him a lesson in Peony Terrace.

For example, if you get a batch of shells using picric acid for the Beiyang Naval Division, or a few steam gas torpedoes, then what will happen to their duel with the Combined Fleet? In addition to steam gas torpedoes, you can also buy a few 152mm Armstrong rapid-fire guns and give them them, so that Deng Shichang can replace all his main guns with these things, and it is estimated that he will not have to hit Yoshino at that time.

But in this case, a good excuse is needed, if he rashly ran to tell Xue Fucheng that because he admired Li Er's devil, he was ready to give him weapons and ammunition worth millions of silver, he didn't suspect that he had ulterior motives, then it would be strange! He is an old fox, and it is estimated that it is enough to go back and buy a governor directly with this kind of investment, why would he stupidly run to pat Li Er's ass?

And what if to buy a cruiser? Let him order a cruiser from Yang's shipyard in the name of the Beiyang Naval Division, and set the delivery deadline at fifteen years later when signing the contract, of course, Yang's shipyard will definitely not have this ability, so this order will be outsourced to Armstrong Shipyard, such a warship they will build in two years at most, and then it will become the property of Yang's shipyard, and the rest of the love can be played, anyway, this is an order from the Chinese Navy, even if it is set up with cannons to swagger through the market in Europe every day, there will be no problem, It was just a sea trial, and as for the fifteen years of the trial, it can only be said that the Yang's shipyard has strict requirements in terms of technology.

This goods are a little excited by his own creativity, he has bought a shipyard in Gothenburg, as the oldest port in Northern Europe, there is naturally no shortage of shipyards here, but they are all small factories, there are three super industrial powers in Britain, France and Germany next to them, that is, struggling to barely make ends meet, under the contact of Erikson did not spend a few dollars to buy one, and then renamed Young's shipyard, and now it is being expanded, but even if the expansion is completed, it can only build ships of about 1,000 tons at most, It is impossible to build a large cruiser, and Yang Feng is not ready to build such a thing in Sweden.

Such a great plan needs to be carried out, and Boss Yang is naturally not interested in staying in Sweden, anyway, with Eriksen, the head snake, the construction of the remaining factories is progressing steadily, and he doesn't need to care about those projects that have been put into production.

The Swedish parliament has agreed to the military's automatic pistol purchase order, although there are only a thousand, but it is enough to keep Bofors's arsenal busy for a while, Young's Power Systems is producing diesel engines and walk-behind tractors in small batches, and larger factories are also under construction, and this diesel engine has also been applied to fishing boats by shipyards, two diesel engines and a set of gearboxes, driving small fishing boats of more than ten tons are very popular, in this case, Yang Feng naturally can't wait to start his own plan, After leaving the Swedish affair to Eriksen, the cargo returned to London with his newly acquired bodyguard, Johnson, and his sister, Yang Feng's little maid, and Catherine.

As for Lin Luoke, she has come back a long time ago, what about her beloved comic career? The first episode of the Rose of Versailles was sold out as soon as it came out. Now countless girls are waiting for her and her and the manga studio to come out with the second episode!

After returning to London, the goods threw the Johnson siblings on his estate, and then went to report to the Chinese embassy, where he is still the embassy secretary, but he took leave to attend to his own personal affairs.

"My lord, I'll show you something good." He leaned over to Xue Fucheng with a smile and said.

Xue Fucheng looked at him very indifferently, Yang Feng was engaged in an industrial empire in Sweden during this time, and he also knew a little bit about it, although China and Sweden did not have diplomatic relations at this time, but you can know a lot from the newspaper alone, after all, it is a tractor and an automatic pistol, this new thing London has newspapers to care about, not to mention that tomorrow will spare no effort to build momentum for the big boss here.

Seeing that Xue Fucheng didn't cooperate at all, he smiled and took out a handful of Mauser C96 from his arms.

"This is the kind of automatic pistol you invented?" Xue Fucheng looked at the ugly pistol curiously.

Yang Feng smiled and took out a bridge of clip bullets in front of him, and then loaded them slowly, then stood up and walked to the window, Xue Fucheng hurriedly stood up and walked to his side, and saw Yang Feng aim at a small tree in the yard and pull the trigger, and the ten bullets were all shot out by him in a very short time, and the tree trunk was scattered.

At the same time as the canopy fell, Yang Feng pretended to blow the smoke that did not exist at the muzzle, and then said proudly: "My lord, what do you think of this gun?"

"How much does it cost?" Xue Fucheng asked directly without the slightest hesitation.

"What money is not money, just because of my loyalty to the court and the queen mother, my admiration for Li Zhongtang, and my respect for your old man, how can I still ask for money? Well, I'll give you 500 pieces, but due to production problems, it may not be delivered until after the New Year. Yang Feng said generously.

Xue Fucheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "In that case, I'll help you talk to Li Zhongtang, and I'll get you a five-grade top to wear when I go back."

Brain-made up for his image of wearing a pheasant feather and wearing a zombie costume, Boss Yang couldn't help but chill, he quickly swallowed his saliva to suppress his nausea and said: "My lord, in fact, I have a bigger gift to give to Lord Zhongtang."

Xue Fucheng glanced at him very meaningfully, and seemed to think that this was more reasonable, with Yang Feng's character, he was willing to give things away for nothing, so it must have ulterior motives.

"I wonder what kind of gift Lu Dao is?" Xue Fucheng asked casually while drinking tea.

"Twenty Armstrong six-inch rapid-fire guns!"

Burst! Xue Fucheng squirted out a sip of tea and looked at Yang Feng with incredible eyes.

Yang Feng casually folded his fingers and continued: "600 rounds of German-made 305-millimeter high-explosive shells, and 4,000 rounds of British-made six-inch artillery high-explosive shells."

"Condition!" Xue Fucheng's eyes widened and he said without the slightest hesitation.

"It's very simple, the Beiyang Naval Division ordered a cruiser from the Swedish Young's Shipyard, and I am studying the specific model." Yang Feng said.

"What do you mean?" Xue Fucheng said suspiciously, of course he would not think that Yang Feng really wanted to sell the warship.

"You only need to sign a contract for this cruiser, and you don't have to worry about everything in the future, including the question of money, you don't need to pay a penny from the Beiyang Naval Division, but the contract must set the delivery time after fifteen years, so that these Beiyang Naval Divisions can get the things I said." Yang Feng said with a smile.

"So you want a cruiser yourself?" Xue Fucheng is not a fool, as soon as he heard this, he understood what this thing wanted to do, it was nothing more than to build a cruiser for himself in the name of the Beiyang Naval Division, and it would be delivered in fifteen years, and it was not after he was tired of playing.

"You see, it's easy to talk to smart people." Yang Feng said proudly.

"What do you want the cruiser for?" Xue Fucheng asked suspiciously.

"Play? When a person has so much money that he has nowhere to spend, there will always be some whimsical ideas, just like our Queen Mother likes to repair gardens, and we Li Zhongtang like to soak his feet, I like to play with all kinds of weapons, especially warships, and now that I have money, I naturally want to get one, but Armstrong Shipyard will definitely not sell me an ordinary person, but the naval fleet of the Beiyang Naval Division is different. Yang Feng said.

"So you ask the sailor to order it from your shipyard, and then you subcontract it to the Armstrong shipyard, and when it's finished, it will go to your shipyard and give it to you as a toy in the name of continuing to build, and then give it to the sailor when you've had enough." Xue Fucheng immediately understood his train of thought.
