Xiaoyu has been writing books at the starting point and has never been to the outstation! Xiaoyu assures book friends that all the content and plot of this book are original by Xiaoyu! If you say that Xiaoyu plagiarized, please come up with evidence! Xiao Yu swore that if this book plagiarized other novels, he would let Xiao Yu die!!

Wei Yong, commander of the First Fleet of the Xinhua Navy, was a little surprised by Bonham's identity, he had no idea that Bonham was actually the governor of the British Straits Settlements and would personally act as a mediator. Britain has vast overseas colonies, and the Governor General is basically the highest military and political governor of these colonies, with great power! Wen Xian actually dared to personally go to the naval warship of Xinhua to negotiate, and he had to admire his courage. In addition, this may be the confidence of the overseas governor of the world's largest power!

"Your Excellency the Governor! I didn't expect to see you here! However, Your Excellency the Governor, this war was a war between Xinhua and Spain and the Dutch, and it had nothing to do with Britain! Besides, the new country has already won this war, and we are about to achieve the final victory! So, we can't promise your mediation! "Wei Yong declined Governor Wenham's mediation! Seeing that he was about to achieve the final victory, he accepted mediation at this time. Isn't it a return to the mountain? Xinhua has long coveted the vast land of the South Seas. In particular, if all the territories controlled by the Dutch-Indonesian colonial authorities were to be taken over, the territory of the new Chinese country would expand several times. When the time comes, more Chinese will emigrate from China to these territories. The strength of Xinhuaguo can be further increased!

"Your Excellency, General! Are you sure you don't accept the kindness of the British Empire? "Although he had already known that this would be the result, after being rejected, Governor Bonham still felt a little annoyed and couldn't help but start threatening!

Wei Yong's face suddenly became a little ugly, Xinhua didn't want to be an enemy of Britain now, he knew it very well, so he paid attention to the wording. But. He didn't expect Governor Bonham to have such an attitude, and he was a little angry for a while. Wei Yong was a pirate on Flying Fish Island before, although the pirates were unwilling to confront the navies of Western countries. But I'm not afraid of them, it's just a big deal to lose a life. The current Xinhua Navy is thousands of times stronger than the original Flying Fish Island pirates, so there is no need to be afraid of the British!

"I'm sorry. Your Excellency the Governor! We refuse to accept mediation! Wei Yong replied stiffly!

"Your Excellency, General! Shouldn't you report it to your majesty? Such a big thing. It doesn't seem like you're the only one to decide! You may not know the power of the British Empire, but I believe that Your Majesty the King must know the power of the British Empire! I think he will accept the friendship of the British Empire! Governor Bonham said haughtily. Britain is the hegemon of the sea, and Xinhua is just a small country that has only been established for two or three years, with a population of only a few hundred thousand people. Of course. The current British Empire is simply unable to deal with Xinhua with all its might. Even if they go on an expedition. Maybe it will follow in the footsteps of the Spanish Expeditionary Force. Governor Wenham, he is just scaring Wei Yong!

"Your Excellency, I don't think you need to bother! I believe that His Majesty must have thought the same as I did! Wei Yong said affirmatively. As a high-ranking member of the Xinhua Navy, he certainly knew that King Long Yu had flew. The military and political leaders of Xinhua knew Long Yufei's dislike of greedy Western countries. The British wanted to intervene in the war between Xinhua and the Spanish and Dutch, unless they really mobilized their troops to fight, otherwise Xinhua would never pay attention to them! However, even if Britain is miserable, it will not make Xinhua back down. Big deal, just another tough fight. The officers and men of the navy of Xinhua Kingdom believed that if they could defeat the Spanish Expeditionary Fleet, they would also be able to defeat the British Expeditionary Fleet!

"Humph! Arrogant Xinhuaguo, you will pay the price for your arrogance! "Governor Bonham made a cruel remark with a black face, and then left the cruiser 'Xinhua'. Since he couldn't scare the Xinhua Navy, then he had no other way!

Wei Yong looked at Wen Xian's back as he left, his face full of sneers. Compared with the new China, the British are undoubtedly arrogant. However, they do have a penchant for hubris. Fortunately, this is the South Seas, which is too far away from the United Kingdom, and even the British Royal Navy, which is the largest in the world, cannot put most of its strength here, which gives Xinhua enough time to develop. After the development of the new Chinese country, there is no need to be afraid of the British. When the time comes, Xinhua will be able to drive the British back to Europe!

"Commander, if we refuse the British like this, will they be angry and go to war with us?" A Xinhua Navy officer asked with some concern.

"Don't worry! The British are not fools either, they have just defeated the Spanish expeditionary fleet, they should know very well what we are capable of! Unless they send a large army from within the country, they will not dare to make enemies of us! Wei Yong said with great certainty.

"Someone, send a message to His Majesty the King, the British want to mediate the war between us and the Spaniards and the Dutch, but I refuse!" Wei Yong said. Although he rejected Governor Wenham, such a major matter really had to be reported to Long Yufei.

"Good thing, Commander!" Said a communications officer. The country of Lanfang was destroyed, but there was still a large amount of land that had not fallen. The intelligence department deployed by Xinhua in Lanfang is still operating, which will greatly help the Xinhua Navy to quickly transmit the news back. From West Borneo to Manila, at the speed of the 'carrier pigeons' of the Xinhua intelligence department, it only takes two days!

After Governor Bonham left the cruiser 'Xinhua', he returned to the British Navy's warships. The mediation failed, and he didn't have the face to see the high-ranking officials of the Dutch-Western coalition army again, so he only sent a junior officer to tell the Dutch-Western coalition army the results of the mediation, and then left Pontianak on a warship and returned directly to Singapore! Overall, his plan this time was a complete failure! Originally, he thought that he could borrow the hands of the Spaniards and the Dutch to destroy the Xinhua Kingdom, and no matter how bad it was, it could curb the development of the Xinhua Kingdom. But they didn't expect that the strength of Xinhua was far beyond their expectations, and Xinhua easily annihilated the Spanish expeditionary fleet, and the elimination of the Jose coalition army was just around the corner! However, the British side did not benefit at all. At least they spied out the strength of Xinhua's military strength and began to face up to Xinhuaguo! For Xinhuaguo, being remembered by the world's first power is definitely not a good thing!

On the afternoon of 25 June, the intelligence department of Xinhua received the news that the 'carrier pigeons' had been released from Singapore and brought back. The Xinhua Navy sent clippers to Singapore and informed the intelligence officers deployed in Singapore of the outcome of the naval battle, who then transmitted the news back to Manila. To ensure that the message was delivered to Manila, intelligence officers deployed in Singapore released five 'carrier pigeons' at once. These 'carrier pigeons' had small bamboo tubes tied to their feet, and slips of paper with secret words were stuffed inside. After receiving these notes, the intelligence department of Xinhuaguo will be able to obtain the content of the information after translating them against the code book!

As the territory of Xinhua became more and more and more enemies, the intelligence department of Xinhua also expanded a lot, and became independent from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the National Security Intelligence Bureau, under the personal jurisdiction of Long Yufei, the king of Xinhua. Of course, in terms of military intelligence, it is subordinate to the Military Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff. The first director of the National Security Intelligence Bureau, named Zou Yuanpeng, a middle-aged man in his forties, was responsible for finding out the news for the pirates of Flying Fish Island when the pirates of Flying Fish Island were rampant in the South China Sea!

At 5 p.m. on May 25, Zou Yuanpeng, director of the National Security Intelligence Bureau, rushed to the palace with the translated information and reported the latest information to King Long Yufei. Of course, this is a long-awaited good news!

"Your Majesty! The latest news from Singapore is that the Navy has annihilated the Spanish expeditionary fleet! In this battle, we sank a total of 47 ships of the Spanish expeditionary fleet and captured 18 warships, including 1 Sou 1st class battleship, 2 2nd class battleships, 6 3rd class battleships, 3 4th class battleships, 4 5th class battleships and 2 6th class battleships. Zou Yuanpeng reported to Long Yufei.

"What? We've already won? So fast? When he heard the news, Long Yufei was also quite shocked. He had expected that it would be very difficult to win this time. However, the Navy once again gave him a huge surprise.

"Your Majesty, the news is indeed correct! The Navy has won a big victory! Zou Yuanpeng said affirmatively.

Long Yufei relieved himself at this time, although the Xinhua Army had no precedent of lying about the results of the battle, he was afraid that there would be any accidents, which would lead to disastrous consequences for Xinhuaguo's decision-making. After getting Zou Yuanpeng's conviction, he was really relieved!

"Are we losing a lot?" Long Yufei then asked. The Navy achieved a brilliant victory in sinking 47 ships and capturing 18 enemy ships, and if its own losses were not large, then this victory would have been perfect!

"Your Majesty, our losses are very small. In this naval battle, only 8 battleships received serious injuries, and most of the rest of the battleships were only slightly injured and could continue to fight! Those damaged battleships are on their way back to Manila! Zou Yuanpeng said.

"Ha Lu Ha! That's it! Huzi, immediately send someone to inform the government affairs and the important ministers of the military that the navy has won, and we have achieved a brilliant victory! By the way, immediately inform all the people of the country about this news and make them happy too! Long Yufei said with a smile.

That night, the whole of Manila became a sea of joy, and countless Chinese spontaneously poured into the streets to celebrate the great victory of the Navy! (To be continued......)
