Marshal Baghramyan could not make up his mind to die in battle several times to encourage himself, and since he was afraid of death, he had to whisper softly: "I agree to surrender to your army." After saying this, Marshal Baglamiyan completely spread out on his chair like a deflated balloon.

Originally, Marshal Baglamiyan wanted to surrender to the Imperial Navy and provoke the contradiction between the Lanfang Imperial Navy and the Chinese Naval Empire so that he could profit from it, but he didn't expect the Chinese Naval Force to be so strong that he didn't even pay attention to the Imperial Navy Marshal Xiahou Min, and his wishful thinking was completely unsuccessful.

Hearing the surrender of the Cossack fleet, Liu Junguo's face immediately turned cloudy, and he smiled and said to Xiahou Min: "Marshal Xiahou, what do you think?" ”

Xiahou Min sighed and shook his head, "I have no opinion, after all, the Imperial Navy has maintained neutrality. "Seeing so many warships captured by the Chinese Consulate, it would be a lie to say that Xiahou Min was not distressed, but he still understood the overall situation, after all, it was unreasonable to hold those things by himself.

Not to mention that now Fang Xiaoyu holds the lifeblood of the Imperial Navy's financial routes and shipyards, even if he destroys the "Lord's Convention" by himself, it is enough for himself.

Although the four lords belong to different camps and usually intrigue with each other, they will definitely unite once they encounter this kind of thing, after all, this is related to their respective fundamental interests, and the four lords attack him like this, even if Xiahou wins and wants to protect him, it is unlikely that he will be able to protect him.

Xiahou Min asked: "I don't know if you still sell these captured warships." ”

Liu Junguo said with a smile: "This is for the lord, I just have to fight." ”

Xiahou Min sighed, got up and left, and before going out, he turned his head to Liu Junguo and said, "Please tell Fang Xiaoyu that he has chosen the best naval commander." ”

Liu Junguo bent down slightly and saluted: "It's my honor to get your compliment, I will definitely bring it." ”

Xiahou Min glanced at him again with a complicated expression and said, "It is an unforgivable mistake for the Imperial Navy to abandon you. ”

Liu Junguo straightened his chest and said, "I am glad that I can join the Chinese Consulate Navy as soon as possible. ”

Walking in the passage back to the cabin, Adjutant Xiahou Zhen asked: "Marshal, why should we retreat, we are the Imperial Navy, and it is not easy to deal with a small territory." ”

Xiahou Min said: "What is the hand, the one that has just been defeated by the Chinese Leader is the fourth largest navy in the world, which is much higher than our ranking, who dares to underestimate the Chinese Leader Navy after this battle." ”

Xiahou Zhen said: "It's just that the Cossack Navy came thousands of miles to let them pick up the cheap, and they succeeded." ”

"Fluke?" Xiahou Min sighed and said: "You have to remember that there is no luck in the navy, only strength is the foundation of victory, as a naval officer, if you have a fluke in your heart, that is the way to die." ”

Xiahou Zhen was still a little reluctant to say: "But the quality of the personnel of our Imperial Navy has always been the best. ”

Xiahou Min sighed: "This is exactly what I am most worried about, Fang Xiaoyu has taken in almost all the officers and men of the Imperial Navy who have been dismissed, and they already hate the Imperial Navy to the core. Last time, His Majesty did too much. ”

The first battle of ironclad ships in the world that took place in the waters south of Diaoyu Shrimp Island ended in such a dramatic end, the Cossack Empire's mighty fleet was not only completely annihilated, but also half of its warships financed the enemy, and its naval ranking dropped from fourth place to ten places.

Alexander III's years of accumulation and countless sums of money were not even available to build a huge fleet with outsourcing, which made the countries of the world see the impact of technology and personnel quality on naval warfare.

After this battle, various countries began to improve their naval science and technology, and the 'Lanting' class battleships of the Chinese Collar also became the object of research in various countries.

The Chinese led the battle to a complete victory, capturing the Cossack Navy, including the "Gangut", "Victory", "Chaisarevich", "Sevastopol", "Ikaterina II", "Admiral?" General Apraksin', 'Klem', 'Knyaz? Ten ironclad ships, including Bogarsky, Navarin, Peter the Great.

'Falcon', 'Donets', 'Grozyašchi', 'Captain Saken', 'Vyborg', 'Aurora', 'Bayan', 'Emerald', 'Gromoboy', 'Minin', 'Ascodel', 'General Admiral', 'Dmitry'? Donsgoy' these thirteen cruisers.

If all these warships join the active service, the tonnage of the capital ship of Fang Xiaoyu's Zhonghua Territory Navy will replace the Cossack Empire as the fourth navy of the World Continent, and for a while, the eyes of the entire World Continent will be focused on the China Territory, and they are waiting for the birth of the new Fourth Fleet of the World Continent.

Countries were predicting the new World Naval Rankings, but Fang Xiaoyu did not do what they imagined, and he unexpectedly sent all these captured warships to the newly established Vladivostok Naval Academy to be used as training ships.

These warships, which could be used as capital ships even in the Saar Empire, the first power in the navy, were actually sent to the school as training ships by Fang Xiaoyu without any distress, and the high-level navies of various countries were shocked.

Naval experts from various countries speculated that it might be because the performance of the 'Lanting' battleships was too good, which caused Fang Xiaoyu to look down on these warships, and various countries were more interested in the 'Lanting' class battleships.

The navies of various countries can't be wrong in guessing, Fang Xiaoyu is really not interested in these so-called ironclad ships with wooden hulls wrapped in ironclad at all, in his mind, only all-steel battleships can be regarded as usable warships.

Fang Xiaoyu has always planned to build his own warship system, and he can't use those defective products to reduce the overall tactical effect of the fleet, not to mention that he doesn't have so many excellent naval officers and sailors to operate these warships.

Rather than taking the empty name of the Fourth Navy in the world and letting them rust in the dock, it is better to let them train more naval talents.

Sure enough, I heard that the Vladivostok Naval School actually used thousands of tons of advanced ironclad ships to train students, and the admissions office here was full every day, and the happy Fang Xiaoyu praised himself for being smart and understanding the advertising effect.

For the Chinese leader to do this, in addition to admiring Fang Xiaoyu's wealth, other countries could only grit their teeth and call Fang Xiaoyu a loser sourly.

The successive defeats of the Navy and Army shocked the Cossack Empire. The antiques in Alexander III's palace suffered again, although the Chancellor of the Exchequer Dimitrov did not say anything, but later he privately said that Alexander III's broken antiques would be enough to build several 9,000-ton ironclads if he sold them.
