As one of the few governors of Longhua with a naval fleet, the Qiantang Navy, which is directly under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office, has a 4,000-ton ironclad battleship. This is also before the fall of the Longhua Dynasty, which was carved up by Shang Xiaoren at a high price. In addition to this capital ship, which belonged to the Longhua South Ocean Division, the Qiantang Navy now also has four 1,000-ton cruisers.

These five thousand-ton warships became the main naval liliang guarding the coastline of Qiantang Road. It was also the main liliang that resisted other coastal governors who also had a navy, and who were involved in Qiantang. In addition to these five main battleships, the remaining dozen or so warships are nothing more than small gunboats of less than 1,000 tons.

The Qiantang Navy is a naval establishment subordinate to the Longhua Navy, but its transfer power directly belongs to Shang Xiaoren. If the navy of Longhua wants to mobilize them to carry out coastal patrols, they also need to pay a certain fee. If you don't give money, you can't move the Qiantang Navy, which now relies on Qiantang Road for military spending.

Now the Qiantang land has almost been captured by the Xu army, although it has not yet reached their naval base, but it has lost the military support of the Qiantang military government. For this kind of gold-swallowing beast-like navy, there is no need for the Xu family army to attack, as long as they are stuck for a while. The warship they control will become a pile of scrap metal floating in the port dock.

Originally, they were also going to escort the governor and take refuge in other provincial mansions. As long as they follow the governor, they don't have to worry about the cost of these warships. But right now, the Governor is being hung up by unknown weapons to show the public, and their financier also means that there is no more. It also means that there are no more people to pay for their warships.

Compared with the domestic army, which has a fixed sense of belonging, these Longhua navies do not. They're more of a choice, and the one who has the money to follow that. As long as they don't take away the right to use their warships, they don't care about giving their lives to the governor. Now there are three choices in front of their fleet, the first is to join the Sun Country's fleet in Dongtai Port.

The second is. The invitation sent by a colleague who also belonged to the Longhua South Ocean Sailor was the leader of the Revolutionary Party, Guo Tianyou. As for the third option, it is naturally Xu Jiajun, who is usually low-key but has always been famous for being rich.

It's just that when Xu Jiajun was attacking the city and allocating land on the land, he didn't even send a tentative negotiation contact. This made the naval officers who originally wanted to join the Xu family army suddenly feel that this stunned young governor would not be willing to raise a navy like them that consumed more funds like other governors who liked to grab territory, right?

Deng Lichang, who is the commander of the Qiantang Navy, also feels in a dilemma, and they will not make a choice. It is very likely that we will face a situation where there is no coal to refuel on the warships and no salaries for the officers and men. For the Sun Kingdom liaison who is willing to pay a high price to absorb them, these equally arrogant naval officers are not afraid of them.

Even the Longhua Navy, which is now scattered into several small fleets, is not an opponent of the Sun Nation Navy, which has formed eight large main fleets. But you can become an officer and soldier of the Navy. Without exception, they all have a certain cultural foundation, and they attach great importance to the overall national righteousness. This proposal has just been said by Deng Lichang. The captains of the cruisers below rejected the proposal in one fell swoop.

In fact, Deng Lichang also knows it. It is simply impossible to take refuge in the navy of the Sun Country. You must know that now because of the Sun Country, the people of Longhua have brazenly invaded Beiyi and occupied Heihe Prefecture in Beiyi under the banner of helping the army of Changbai State. This kind of direct invasion of Longhua's land for thousands of years undoubtedly made a group of Longhua naval officers and men really unhappy.

If it weren't for their navy liliang being too scattered. If they can't form a powerful attack fleet, I'm afraid they will already be desperate with the Sun Kingdom Army that has encroached on their Dongtai Port.

In the final analysis, the few remaining navies of their Longhua Kingdom, Liliang, were just some ships built at the end of the Longhua Dynasty. Compare the navies of other countries that have now been updated a lot. The Longhua Naval Fleet, which dominated the East back then, really doesn't know how many chances they can have.

If you can't beat others with your fists, you naturally have to swallow your anger. In those years, the navies that were divided among the various warlords were not able to maintain normal patrol expenses. In addition, the warship has been floating in the sea for many years, and the annual routine maintenance cost is also a large expense. If you don't have a certain amount of economic strength, you simply can't afford to raise such an army.

Not to mention, now there is the governor who has a navy, and he will go to build new warships like a fool. Even in the Nanyang Fleet established in Qiantang Road, those boat technicians have become fishermen and farmers. The machinery and equipment in the shipyard were also dismantled and sold by Shang Xiaoren.

If it is not clear, this navy still needs to be maintained. I'm afraid that the dock next to their fleet station will also be dismantled and sold as scrap metal.

Removing the proposal to defect to the Sun Nation Navy, there is only one option in front of them now, and that is to join the Southern Coastal Army. A large part of the former Nanyang Navy that was equal in strength to them and belonged to the jurisdiction of the Revolutionary Army.

For this proposal, someone quickly questioned: "Captain Deng, I think Captain Huang must have lied to us." According to my old brothers, their Southern Coastal Army is now not even paid their normal monthly salaries. Their capital ship, the former Yellow Emperor ship, has a rusty hull and is said to have no money to maintain.

With so many of us joining, I'm afraid he can't afford to raise such a large navy even if he cannons are pants. Do you think it will really be a long-term solution for us to join the South Coastal Army?

I don't want my brothers to go away happy and go home. Even if you can't drive a warship here, you can still take care of your family. If you move to Nanbin, it will be a problem to even eat. I'm afraid we're really going to take off our uniforms and go to the sea to fish. ”

As soon as the cold water was poured, Deng Lichang also looked a little upset and said, "Then what do you say?" Could it be that we just sit and wait, and be driven into the sea by Xu Jiajun's people to find a way? Or will we just wait for them to come in, and then let him fall as a hairy boy? ”

It's just that as soon as he finished saying this, the originally closed door of the ship's cabin suddenly opened, and a young man wearing a black coat and a hood came out, and said in front of the admirals who were in a daze in the aisle very easily: "Do you have any other choice?" ”

In fact, at the time of the Qiantang Navy meeting, the River Defense Force, which was formed in the capital of the Gannan River, had secretly begun to build a submarine navy three years ago in accordance with Xu Bin's instructions. As for the small river defense gunboats that started construction at the shipyard on the surface, they were just used to disguise the real intention of building a submarine force.

After three years of research and construction, Xu Bin already has a secret naval force with more than 1,000 personnel and more than 10 submarines. After two years of trial training in going down to the river and entering the sea, this submarine unit already has experience in latent and actual combat.

Although their current submarines are relatively small in tonnage, they have a relatively simple attack method, each submarine has only four mine tubes. But in this plane, they were the first secret naval force to lurk underwater.

When Xu Jiajun's land troops launched an attack on Qiantang Road, Xu Bin instructed the intelligence department to cooperate with the submarine force, which took nearly half a month. The submarine detachment, which usually cruises in the Jiangdu Coast, secretly infiltrated the dock camp of the Qiantang Navy.

The young man in front of him wearing a hat and dressed in black was the candidate sent by the Xu family army to persuade or shock this group of arrogant navy. And he has always been regarded by the outside world as the eyes of Xu Jiajun in the dark night, Tian Youliang, the major general-level minister of the Ministry of Intelligence.

When this team of six submarines, named Wolf class submarines by Xu Bin, sneaked into the dock of the Qiantang Navy at night. The Xu Jiajun Sea Lion Special Combat Team, which was hiding on the surface of its submarine, and a group of 20 people were ready to go. If it weren't for the fact that they didn't want to go on a killing spree, the Qiantang Navy base would have been wiped out tonight by this special combat team of only 20 people.

Just took down the light and dark posts of the naval base, and even the high posts on the warship, Tian Youliang was escorted by the sea lion special combat team. directly pushed away the flagship Qiantang Shipyard, which was holding a naval captains' meeting, and when Tian Youliang heard Deng Lichang's remarks about the marshal he respected the most, the equally unceremonious Dama Jindao sat on the control platform of the warship.

Just as Deng Lichang was about to ask who Tian Youliang was, ten sea lion special combat team members dressed in water clothes quickly controlled all the supreme points of the shipyard with guns in the horrified eyes of these naval captains. One of the most fierce special combat team members said in an unusually cold voice: "You have been captured, if you don't want to be killed, I hope you are all honest!" ”

It was these words and the muzzles of those black holes that made Deng Lichang and the others dare not move in vain, and let these special combat team members who were painted like ghosts and yaksha pick up the pistols they were wearing.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that these naval captains no longer had the strength to threaten Tian Youliang that the fierce special combat team member who spoke just now walked up to Tian Youliang and said, "Minister Tian, you can carry out your work, their threat has been lifted." If they do anything that threatens your safety, they will be killed by my hands. ”

is very ruthless, but when Deng Lichang and the others looked at the eyes of this fierce middle-aged man, they also felt that in addition to being cold, this look seemed to have boundless murderous aura. Therefore, they all know from the military that such people have countless blood on their hands. Only those who have killed too much can reveal a shocking murderous aura in their eyes.

Just after Deng Lichang realized that the situation was out of their control, he also said calmly: "Friend, can you tell me the purpose of your trip now?" ”

Faced with the commander of the Qiantang Naval Fleet, who was the target of attention, Tian Youliang did not answer Deng Lichang's question, but in the eyes of these captains as if they had seen a ghost.

The names and ages of the family members they have, and even the illegitimate children of the adopted lovers, even if they have done any bad things after joining the army, they will all say it. This kind of dialogue that threw their hole cards into the air made the captains of the Navy present really feel afraid of this 'Minister Tian' in their hearts! (To be continued......)
