“。”

In the commander tower of the battleship Esmeraldas of the Chilean Navy, which was ordered at the same time as the Polar Star battleship, the rapid shouts one after another made people nervous, and at the same time, even Alfaro, who did not know much about the navy, could see that the Chilean fleet, which is known as the top three in South America and has rich experience in naval warfare, was at a disadvantage, which made him feel as if he had become a fish that had been put on a board and left the water, and he seemed to be suffocated with his mouth wide open.

Off the coast of Puerto Esmeraldas, located on the coast of Ecuador and just one word away from the Chilean flagship, the Jilin and Heilongjiang are like two brute bulls, relying on speed and brute force to constantly move back and forth between the three Polaris and the three Chilean cruisers.

Although there was no roar of naval guns, although there was no heart-wrenching smoke of gunpowder, whether it was Simmons or Alfaro, who had been the president of Ecuador on the side, the sweat was drenched in sweat all over the vest, and the back looked like it was splashed with water from a distance.

When the two flags of the signal corps of the Jilin in the distance staggered, all the Chilean sailors felt a sense of frustration, and some even smashed the bulkhead with their fists.

"Lost"

When the two flags were staggered, the two Jilin-class battleships fired five rounds of shells against the three Polaris and the three cruisers, although in actual combat five rounds did not mean sinking, and if you were lucky, fifty rounds would not necessarily catch the shells, but this was an exercise, so that the enemy fired five rounds of salvos at themselves, and each battleship suffered 50 shells at the 10,000-meter distance, according to the command rate of the Chinese Navy of 25 percent, Each of the six Chilean warships had at least twelve shells weighing 390 kilograms.

Maybe the three Polaris can resist, but the three cruisers will definitely not be able to stop this kind of shell, Simmons knows very well that even if the three cruisers he brought this time are hit by one of these shells, they will be immediately severely damaged or even sunk.

At this moment, as a naval man, Simmons can clearly feel that this fleet, which started from Chile and almost all the captains of capital ships have received training from the Chilean Navy, has surpassed Chile by too much after continuous and long-term war.

Some people may think that they have an advantage in equipment, but the cooperation of the two battleships in the march, the speed and timing of the jam and even the launch of the artillery bombardment cannot deceive people, and no matter how good the equipment is, it must be well coordinated with the commander and sailors to play a role, just like the moment when he racked his brains to block the Heilongjiang in the middle of the three Polaris to form a crossfire, the Jilin suddenly inserted horizontally, and put the flagship Esmeralda under the muzzle with an accurate track, As a result, the other two ships had to abandon the shelling and come to the rescue. ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※

This is not something that can be done by any technology, it must have a very good sense of cooperation and a good view of the overall situation.

"Dear Ji, you have a very good soldier." Simmons turned around, regained his usual demeanor, stretched out his big hand and smiled, "Congratulations. ”

'General Simmons, thank you for the compliment. Ji Weishan shook Simmons' big hand and smiled: "But I also want to thank you, if it weren't for your help and the Chilean Navy, maybe my fleet, and our country, would still be suffering at the moment." ”

'Haha, you're welcome, when we arrive in Guayaquil, just ask me for a drink.' Simmons walked out of the failed drill just now, regained his wild laughter, and had a bear hug with Ji Weishan.

Finally getting out of this Chilean bearded arm, Ji Weishan couldn't help but look at Alfaro, who was still looking at the warship that was beginning to be reorganized in the distance, and suddenly asked: "Mr. Alfaro, I think you must be willing to invite me and General Simmons for a drink." ”

'Have a drink?' Alfaro, who was quiet in the tense and exciting exercise that had no gunsmoke just now, was stunned, suddenly recalled, and nodded without a smile: "Of course, of course we want to have a drink together." ”

His appearance made Simmons quietly glance at Ji Weishan, and at the same time smiled knowingly.

'Okay, let's start the live firing training of naval guns. Ji Weishan waved his hand to the staff officer who had come to the Esmeralda with him to watch the battle, and said, "Simmons, do you want to try the power yourself?" ”

'Try it yourself?' Looking at the Jilin that was starting to approach, Simmons was stunned for a long time and jumped up suddenly, pointed to the huge Jilin and licked his lips violently, as if he still couldn't believe it, and confirmed again: "Ji, what you said is true? Can I go up and see the live firing for myself? ”

Of course, if you wish, I can hand over the command of the live firing to you. Ji Weishan blinked: "This is the personal order of His Majesty the Emperor before I set off." ”

'Oh God, dear Lee, I love you to death' Big Hu Simmons shouted, and he couldn't even care about politeness, and rushed towards the side of the ship as if flying, which made Ji Weishan cry and laugh, so he had to shout to Simmons's adjutant: 'Go and choose the gunner, otherwise the shells will be wasted by this big man.' ”

'Yes' The adjutant saluted and rushed out, leaving only the navigators in the cabin full of stars, and Ji Weishan made a gesture of please: "Alfaro, please." ”

'Can I go?' ”

'Of course, you are our Hua, honored guest"

Ji Weishan's special emphasis on the word VIP made Alfaro breathe a sigh of relief, and walked towards the traffic boat together.

Ten minutes later, when an old Russian supply ship that had already been prepared and arrived with the fleet appeared 10,000 meters away in tow from a Jinghai-class ship, representatives of various countries scattered on various ships to watch the exercise gathered on the Jilin, among which Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia, three South American countries located on the Pacific coast, attracted attention.

Soon after the light patrol shook off the cable and sped away, the Jilin fired a signal flare ready for shelling, and the Chinese and Chilean soldiers, including a hundred Chilean naval officers and gunners, immediately began to adjust their firing of Zhu Yuan, and the command method and the method of calculating the information purely on the other end of the phone made the Chilean soldiers extremely uncomfortable, and they did not trust this method, but they changed their views very quickly.

When Big Hu Simmons jumped to his feet and gave the order to open fire, the five twin L45/350mm naval guns roared at the same time, and the huge recoil made the officials and generals of several countries who had never seen it and were unprepared startled and staggered.

The power of ten naval guns firing at the same time is extremely amazing, the huge sound shocked everyone's ears to buzz, even if they put on ear guards, many people subconsciously covered their ears, but the hull that was pushed a few meters horizontally, and the backward tilt made them lose their balance because they took off their hands, fortunately, Ji Weishan had already prepared and sent people to accompany and watch one-on-one, so that these weak officials did not look foreign.

Before the aftermath of the first round of shelling was over, the second round had already been heard, Simmons on the command platform shouted, excitedly holding a telescope and staring wide-eyed to check the shelling situation, although the power of the battleship had already spread to the world's navies, but for Chile, it was just some data, only when he really saw it and knew how unjust the defeat was.

When a huge flame rose from the 5,000-ton Russian target ship in the third round, the Chilean sailors' distrust of the telephone method completely disappeared, because there was no way to hit a target 10,000 meters away with only three rounds by traditional means.

The guns were roaring, the air was torn apart by the wind brought by the cannonballs whistling out of the muzzles, everyone felt as if the ear drums were about to be torn, and when the sixth round was just three consecutive fireballs rising, the Russian target ship was already overwhelmed and slowly began to sink.

Every South American official and navy officer who watched this scene was dumbfounded, the power of the giant ship's cannon made them completely stunned, and even Simmons was a little dumbfounded, eager to grab one and bring it back to Chile immediately.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a battleship of our type, with a displacement of 22,700 tons, it can travel 7,000 nautical miles at a speed of 13 knots, and it also has ten of the best naval guns in the world, as you can see, its power is very amazing, it can destroy any target from 10,000 meters away, and it can only be seen by you." With the slowly sinking target ship, the representatives of various countries are bright-eyed, and for these small countries, the power of the Jilin is unimaginable.

Looking at their brighter and brighter eyes, Ji Weishan smiled happily in his heart: "There are still things you can't see, for example, there is armor up to 300 mm thick installed on it, which can defend against its own shells at a distance of 10,000 meters." ”

"Of course." Speaking of this, the corners of Ji Weishan's mouth suddenly fell, and he pretended to shake his head and sighed: "Its price is relatively expensive, about 2.5 million pounds per ship." ”

When Ji Weishan said this price, the representatives of various countries gasped, for them, such a large number was destined to look at the ship and sigh.

This number also made Simmons open his mouth wide, he had asked for the offer before, it was about 2 million, how could it be hundreds of thousands more at once? But he understood it very well.

"In order to let you go home empty-handed, my country happens to have a batch of warships that we want to sell." Ji Weishan beckoned, and the soldiers who had already prepared immediately handed out the booklet printed with photos and detailed data to Da.

"Hehe, you must be very clear about their origins, but some of them must be unclear." "Most of these warships have only been in the water for five years, all of them are more than 10,000 tons, and we have done a complete repair, and we have upgraded the main guns with the power you just saw, and all the battleships on them are only 300,000 pounds."

300,000 pounds, which can be said to be an absolutely ultra-low price, if it is exported this year, an all-old battleship, whether it is a first class or a second class, will cost at least 700,000, so let alone Colombia and Peru, even Simmons has the idea of pulling a few back.

"By the way, there's something I think I should tell you that His Majesty Alfaro has made the decision to buy the Rostislav and Svetlana on behalf of the Ecuadorian government, so those two must be crossed off the list."

"Oh, look at me." Ji Weishan pretended to pat his forehead and said with a smile: "I almost forgot, it should be President Alfaro." ”

Although Alfaro has already decided to overthrow the incumbent president, and he is almost ready, he doesn't even need two warships to complete it, but when Ji Weishan said this, the meaning is deep.

Listening to other people's ears, everyone still thinks that Alfaro, who is about to become the president of Ecuador, successfully reached the top after buying two warships because of the support of China, which makes people can't help but emerge again and again, even Simmons can't help but secretly scold Ji Weishan for his powerful methods, the political situation in South American countries is already chaotic, and he is undoubtedly making some kind of hint that even if he can't become the second Alfaro, as long as he facilitates the deal, it will definitely increase the domestic status of these people here

Moreover, the Rostislav obtained by Ecuador is a large warship of nearly 9,000 tons, and if all countries wait and see, then this small country sandwiched between Peru and Colombia will be called the fourth largest naval power in South America

It wasn't until everyone began to visit the Jilin under the leadership of the officer that the words of the vice admiral Hua were still echoing in everyone's minds, and they looked at the booklet in their hands, both greedy and hesitant.

"Alfaro." Looking at the latter person in the conference room, Ji Weishangang's businessman's expression disappeared at once, looked at the man who was about to become the president of Ecuador, and said straightforwardly: "You must know very well what I need, so what else do you have to propose." ”

Looking at the handsome man in front of him, who was suddenly full of murderous energy, Alfaro suddenly shuddered, Ecuador is a small country, not to mention that the other party suddenly brought six warships, even one is enough to change the turbulent political situation in the country, the Chinese Empire's defeat of the powerful Russian fleet is already well known, they have become a well-deserved Pacific hegemon, Ecuador, as a Pacific coastal country, simply cannot confront such a behemoth.

"The Galapagos Islands, we will not ask for a cession, they still belong to Ecuador, Ecuadorian citizens have the right of free access, we are only going to lease them for a period of time for scientific research, but our citizens must have diplomatic immunity in Ecuador and are not allowed to enter our scientific research ports and bases there without permission, as for the lease period, we hope to be longer." Ji Weishan gently turned the quilt in front of him and said with a smile: "Of course, as compensation, we will hand over the Rostislav and Svetlana to you, and we can also add a 6,700-ton armored cruiser Rostiana as a lease fee, in addition, your country's warships can also come to Honolulu for maintenance at any time, or wait until we repair the dock in Galapagos, and then go there to replenish and train." ”

"This is a document about the lease for scientific research, you can take a look, the lease is 99 years" Without allowing the other party to speak, Ji Weishan had already stuffed the prepared loan clause in front of Alfaro, who was already sweating profusely.

"Lease term 99 years"

The Alfaro people were stupid, sweat welling up on their foreheads, and he knew at this moment that he was not on a warship, but a thief ship
