Chapter 288: The Battle Report Comes

Hearing this, Tina nodded and explained: "Dear Your Highness, please let me explain it to you."

"Your Highness, please remember that when we boil water, the water will boil, and the hot water will generate steam, which will lift the lid of the pot."

"We designed the steam engine based on this principle!"

"After it is specially modified and installed on the ship, it can travel like flying without the need for sails and oars."

“This way, we can save a lot of manpower!”

"That's it..." After hearing Tina's introduction, Nan Yanxi nodded with some understanding.

"Uh...then let me ask, this is a good thing, why is it being boycotted?"

"Also, what exactly are you doing in China?"

When Tina heard this, she couldn't help but sigh: "Your Highness, this invention is indeed great and will benefit the country and the people."

"But not everyone wants to see it."

"The emergence of the steam engine can save huge manpower and material resources, but it will also touch the cake of many people."

Hearing this, Nan Yanxi nodded silently. It was indeed true. This thing had changed too much and had a great impact.

It is difficult for an empire with a deep-rooted aristocratic class to develop.

But...it's quite suitable for my own country, Nanhai!

Then he asked: "Then what is that movement you are engaged in?"

"Uh...I heard that it's called changing one's fate? What is changing one's fate?"

Tina covered her mouth and smiled, and quickly explained: "We did a movement called the Industrial Revolution!"

"The purpose is to replace manpower with machines and replace individual manual production with large-scale factory production. It is also a revolution in energy conversion!"

"If we can implement it smoothly! I believe we can completely change the world!"

Seeing Tina shouting loudly like a chicken blood, Nan Yanxi suddenly felt a little excited.

Although Nan Yanxi didn't quite understand this industrial revolution, her subconscious feeling was quite useful.

Especially this steam engine, if you really want to equip all your battleships with this thing.

Wouldn’t that be even more powerful?

Then he said with all his heart: "If that's the case, why not do it here!"

"If you want to change your life, you can ask someone to write a plan and submit it."

"We have just established a new order in Nanhai Country, and there are not that many aristocrats. You can use your hands and feet to do it!"

"As long as it benefits the country and the people, that's fine. There's no such mess here!"

"Really...really...?"

When Tina heard this, her blue eyes suddenly opened wide, and she couldn't believe it and said, "Your Highness, do you really mean what you said?"

"Of course it counts! This is our Crown Prince!"

Mo Yunxi on the side turned to look at Nan Yanxi and said with great interest: "He is absolutely sure about this Nanhai Kingdom!"

"If Miss Tina wants to realize her ambition here, she has to fawn over him! Huh?"

After saying that, he even winked at Nan Yanxi.

"Really? Huh?"

Nan Yanxi suddenly sweated profusely and could only say in embarrassment: "Ah...yes, yes, I have the final say!"

"No more flattery, get the plan as soon as possible and see how we can cooperate with you! Okay?"

"Okay, okay...I'm going now!"

Tina was so happy that she almost jumped up and ran back to her residence in a hurry.

Rubink scratched his head in embarrassment on the side: "Well... Your Highness, don't blame me, they have never traveled far."

"I don't know much about the etiquette of your country. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

Nan Yanxi smiled and waved her hand: "It doesn't matter! Miss Tina is also true-hearted."

"As long as that kind of life-changing thing can really be used by the country and the people, I will definitely support it strongly!"

Hearing this, Rubink sighed with a sad look on his face, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing this, Nan Yanxi asked in confusion: "What's wrong, Brother Rubink? Is there something difficult?"

"Hey...!" Rubink shook his head: "It's not difficult at all, I'm just feeling a little emotional."

Then he said with emotion: "Although this movement is just the beginning, I can feel that this is an opportunity to become stronger."

"It's a pity that my country is stubborn and narrow-minded and cannot accommodate new things!"

He turned to Nan Yanxi and said in admiration: "You are different. Your country is full of youthful vitality."

"I can see that in the near future, your country will definitely soar into the sky and dominate other countries."

"Become the first-class powerful country in the world!"

Listening to him talking like this and looking at his expression, it doesn't seem like he is joking.

Nan Yanxi smiled, stretched out her hand to pick up the wine glass, and pointed at Lubink from a distance: "Brother Lubink!"

"Why are you so melancholy? You are a businessman and all you care about is making money. Why do you care about politics?"

"Besides, you still have the title of Nanhai Kingdom. This land is also your second hometown!"

"Isn't it reasonable for you to hope that it will get better and better?"

After saying that, Nan Yanxi changed the topic and said with a smile: "Let's talk about business!"

"How many good things did you bring this time?"

"Yes, yes...look at my brain, I have forgotten this matter!"

Rubink smiled awkwardly and then introduced: "This time, I brought the excellent horse breeds and cattle breeds from our Lanhe Empire."

"I hope to bring back the northern horses from the northern plains and the black long-horned buffalo from the southern seas to you!"

Hearing this, Nan Yanxi chuckled, stretched out his thumb and praised: "Brother Lubink is indeed very wise."

"My breed of horses from Beiyuan are extremely suitable for large regiments to attack for long periods of time."

"Good disease resistance, good endurance, eat less, easy to take care of!"

"And our long-horned buffalo in the South China Sea, they are the most powerful partners in the hands of the people!"

"Brother, you are going to replace two of my national treasures right now. I have to see if what you bring is a crooked melon or a cracked jujube."

"How is this possible!" Rubink said with a serious face, "How is this possible!"

"When doing business, you must be honest! What I brought this time is definitely a good variety!"

Seeing that he was anxious, Nan Yanxi quickly comforted him: "Hahaha... I still believe in Brother Rubink's integrity."

"Come on, come on... let's have a drink first, and let the Minister of Agriculture take the lead tomorrow to complete this transaction!"

"Come on, come on..."

Rubink felt relieved and smiled happily.

He picked up the wine glass, clinked it with him, and drank it all in one gulp.

Nan Yanxi also nodded. Just as he was about to put the wine glass in his hand to his mouth, he heard someone shouting in a high voice outside the hall.

"Report...Nan Zhao battle report...Nan Zhao battle report..."

Hearing the panicked voice of the little eunuch, Nan Yanxi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and then turned her head.

From outside the door, I saw a yellow gate official staggering in.

With a panic look on his face, he said to Nan Yanxi: "Your Majesty...Your Highness...the Nan Zhao battle report is here..."

"Huh?" Seeing his expression, Nan Yanxi couldn't help but feel nervous.

He quickly stood up and said to everyone: "Everyone, sit down for a moment and drink to your heart's content! I'll be right back!"

After saying that, he quickly walked towards the study room next door.

The small yellow door behind him quickly followed him and left in a hurry.

Mo Yunxi looked at the two people's hurried backs, frowned slightly, and then followed them slowly.

"What...how could you lose?"

Nan Yanxi exclaimed and quickly looked at the battle report in front of her with a look of disbelief.

I saw it written in the newspaper at that station that the war started smoothly.

The elite marine battalion in the fleet easily captured the beachhead of Nan Zhao.

After that, the army stormed the beach and landed, and the warships and artillery suppressed the enemy positions.

But just when they were about to succeed, the Nanzhao Navy suddenly came from behind, knocking the Nanhai Navy out of reach.

The most terrible thing is that the Nanzhao Navy was also equipped with artillery warships. Although they were not many in number, they still caught the unprepared Nanzhao Navy off guard.

Although the fleet suffered little losses, it could only retreat to the sea first and then make plans.

This is not the most important thing. The landing force was led by Li Jingmo, and also went with the army, including Lu Yingying and Nangong Ruoxue.

They were all trapped on a barren mountain at the beachhead of Nan Zhao.

The Southern Zhao Army had artillery warships, and naturally it also had muskets and land artillery.

Therefore, Li Qi is now organizing his forces and preparing to land on the beach again to see if he can annihilate the Nan Zhao Navy in one fell swoop before making any plans!

But the most dangerous person now is Li Jingmo and the others.

Trapped on a barren mountain with no supplies, it was really impossible to cope with the indiscriminate bombing and crazy attacks of the Southern Zhao Army.
