Chapter 207 This is an era when the queen comes out

After the dinner officially started, Hu Yunzan, Butler Fang and Storekeeper Fu were not arranged to sit together, so there was not much communication afterwards. It was an unexpected coincidence that the three of them were able to gather in Qingyuan. The three of them were a little surprised and could meet each other in Qingyuan. However, this also made them feel alert and they did not get together to talk, and they didn't even have eye contact.

Of course, although they were a little cautious, the other guests had a very pleasant stay, because at the banquet, Wang Yi announced the development plans for the five Southeast Asian provinces and North Vietnam in the next five years. Anyone could hear the booming business opportunities, and as local businessmen, they would naturally gain huge benefits from it.

Speaking of which, it is because of the underdeveloped surveillance methods in this era, even the Northeast is no exception. If it were later generations, these three people would have appeared in Qingyuan so blatantly, they would have been arrested on the streets as soon as they emerged in Hanoi.

The day after the dinner, Wang Yi and his party left Hanoi and began to head towards South Vietnam. After a long flight, the airship needed to be overhauled. It was originally planned to take a week, but because the itinerary changed very quickly and the overhaul had just begun and had not been completed, so Wang Yi chose to take the sea route this time. From Hanoi to Hai Phong City, follow a squadron of the Nanyang Fleet, first go to Da Nang, and then go to Saigon. ""Fiction chapter

In fact, the railway between North and South Vietnam has been completed, but because of the rebellion between South Vietnam and Cambodia in the first half of the year, the personal guard Chu Yuan was full of concerns about the security of South Vietnam, so he persuaded Wang Yi to go to the sea.

Danang is one of the four major military ports in the five Southeast Asian provinces. It is jointly guarding the Beibu Gulf transportation route with the Sanya Navy and Air Force Base on Hainan Island. The other three military ports are Nha Trang and Saigon in Nanyue Province, which protect the routes near Cam Ranh Bay. Kampong in Cambodia Province, that is, Sihanoukville City in later generations, is used to control the Gulf of Siam. At present, due to the existence of Kampong, the Siam navy has always been suppressed.

Although the northeast is already in winter, Da Nang is still very warm, and the natural landscape here is very beautiful. Wang Yi did not expect that there is such a place in Nanyue. Its long beach with the same color as the sky and water is not inferior to the Maldives. In addition to the invincible blue sky and blue sea, there is also an ancient city that makes people miss the ancient world and the tranquility that the city has long lost!

"Oh my God, this place is so beautiful!" Lin Tae-hee held Wang Yi's arm with one hand and covered her mouth with the other, and said in surprise.

Han Xiujing was holding the fence of the hull with both hands. Although she didn't say anything, little happy stars appeared in her eyes.

The nearby areas of Da Nang are now busy, and the port construction has only been initially completed. Although it has been washed by rain, traces of wars not long ago can still be seen in the city.

"There is the Camellia Peninsula over there." The person who introduced Wang Yi and others was Sima Feng, the commander of this fleet. "It was a wise decision that you set up the Nanyang Naval Base here, the captain."

The Camellia Peninsula is located in the northeast of Da Nang City, located in the center of the Da Nang port, with an average altitude of more than 600 meters. It forms a natural screen seal, which is a typhoon in Da Nang. This place is 13 kilometers away from the center of Da Nang, 15 kilometers long, 5 kilometers widest at the widest point, 1 kilometer narrowest at the narrowest point, and 696 meters highest peak, with 4,370 hectares of primitive forests. The rare animals include Javanese monkeys, long-tailed monkeys, red-faced chickens, etc. The peninsula is undulating, with lush trees, and birds and beasts appearing.

"There are also the Five Elements Mountains in the southeast near Da Nang, which are located about ten kilometers southeast of Da Nang City. There are five peaks there, which rise along the coast, called Wood Peak, Golden Peak, Fire Peak, Water Peak, and Earth Peak. I personally think that Water Peak is the largest and most beautiful among the Five Elements Mountains." Sima Peak is obviously very familiar with the nearby geography.

Wang Yi came to Da Nang this time just a temporary stop, inspected and would continue to sail south after the ship supplies were completed. Lin Tae-hee and Han Soo-jin obviously knew the arrangements, so he was somewhat disappointed.

"Don't be disappointed, wait until you get your sister Chen, and we'll come back."

When Wang Yi made such a promise, Lin Tae-hee and Han Xiu-jing were both happy.

"Really?" Lin Tae-hee asked back, afraid that she would hear it. The expression on her little face was very excited, and her hands were slapped together because of joy.

"Why, sir, have you lied to you?" Wang Yi hugged Lin Tae-hee in his arms.

Seeing that everyone around him looked at him, Lin Tae-hee blushed and buried her head in Wang Yi's arms. Han Xiu-jing naturally would not let her go easily, and it scratched Lin Tae-hee's itch.

The ship was heading towards the military port. At this moment, two warships suddenly arrived in the direction of the Mingang not far south, and saw that the flag was two Spanish titanium warships. Wang Yi did not care, but Sima Feng had already signaled his flag bearer to sing the flags and let the Spanish warships avoid it.

"What's going on?"

The Spanish seemed to ignore the flagbearer's request, and Sima Feng frowned.

The tonnage of the two Spanish warships is about four or five thousand tons. Although they are not real steel ships, their power cannot be underestimated at such a close distance. In contrast, although the Northeast Fleet has three warships, the tonnage is about two thousand tons and the caliber of the gun is only 12 inches. The two sides really conflict, and under terrain like Da Nang, the outcome is unpredictable.

Besides, Wang Yi is on the ship now. Once something goes wrong, Sima Feng feels that he cannot bear it.

The two Spanish warships opposite came from Manila, and the captain was named Raul Saint Cassi. As the fleet commander of the Empire's last day, Raul naturally had his own pride. Although the Northeast Autonomous Region is already recognized as a new power, in Raul's eyes, the Northeast is just a nouveau riche.

Spain arrived in the Philippine Islands during its first global voyage in 1521. In 1565, Cebu Island was occupied by the Spanish from Mexico, which was the beginning of the rule of the Philippines. Since then, Spain gradually invaded the Philippines and ruled for more than 300 years. There was also a break in between. From 1761 to 1764, the Philippines was colonized by Britain, but soon Spain resumed its rule.

Wang Yi knew that if he didn't take action, the Philippines would declare independence by the Spanish-American War in 1898, and later signed the Paris Peace Treaty, and the Philippines would become the territory of the Americans.

"Captain, the Northeast warship once again called flags and asked us to avoid it." The first mate Ramos said at this time.

Raul snorted and didn't care. He disdained the Northeast Navy. Although the Northeast defeated the French and Japanese coalition and wiped out the French Far East Fleet. However, Raul, who knew the inside story, did not attribute these merits to the Northeast Navy at all. Defeating the French and Japanese coalition was a contribution of the Northeast Air Force. Although the navy later participated in the war, it was only a coalition fleet that had been bombed beyond recognition and had no intention of fighting again.

As for the complete annihilation of the French Far East Fleet, although this was a military merit for the navy, French warships were attacking Taiwan Keelung and Tamsui, which had lost its ability to fight back. The Northeast Navy just took the opportunity to successfully attack. Even though the results were brilliant, in the eyes of Raul, who emphasized chivalrous spirit, the Northeast Navy used some shameful tricks. If the real head-on confrontation, the Northeast Navy was no match for the European naval power at all. Of course, this opponent also included Spain.

Although Chief Deputy Ramos agreed with his captain's opinion, it was Da Nang and the sphere of influence of the Northeast Navy. Moreover, there was a Northeast air base not far away. Provoking the Northeast Navy here was tantamount to seeking death.

"Captain, have you forgotten the Governor's instructions?"

The current Spanish governor in the Philippines is named Emilio Pirenette. He took office in 1885. Before starting this training, Emilio specifically instructed Raul that he knew the character of the captain, so he told him not to provoke the Northeast Autonomous Region.

When Raul heard this, he finally felt a little hesitant, but he immediately became tougher. He was a soldier and only cared about the dignity and glory of the empire. Even for Spain at this time, this was a pride that had long been lost.

Lauer said: "Resolutely not to give in, and send flags to the Northeast Navy and let them give way."

"This... Captain, Da Nang is the sphere of influence in the Northeast after all."

"Don't worry about so many, send me the orders and the warships go straight."

Seeing two Spanish warships heading straight towards their fleet, although it was unlikely to collide, the other party's provocative attitude made Sima Feng frown into pieces. Wang Yi also noticed something strange at this time, but he did not say anything, watching Sima Feng's handling. The others also discovered something abnormal at this time. Chu Yuan, who reacted, protected Wang Yi into the bridge.

"Send messages to the base and the air force, send them an alert, and send airships to support them as soon as possible." Sima Feng began to issue an order. "Order the Jing Ke and Zhuan Zhuan to guard the guards, and our ship will accelerate the entry into the port! Once the other party has any abnormal movement, attack immediately."

Although Lin Tae-hee and Han Xiu-jing were both worried, Wang Yi knew that although the situation in front of him seemed urgent, it was not very dangerous. However, on the territory of the Northeast, the Spaniards dared to rush around like this, and obviously did not take the Northeast Autonomous Region seriously.

"The current Spanish ruler is Isabel II?" Wang Yi did not know much about Spain's history, but he had some understanding of it from the later information he brought.
