Just as the Japanese people's army in Lima was preparing for a decisive battle with the Lucia demons who invaded their homeland, another demon in their eyes was receiving their navy in Mawei. Governor Yang leaned on his titanium alloy cane and stood against the sunset.
He stood on the shore with a smile on his face and looked at the combined fleet approaching in the distance, accompanied by a bunch of people cheering him on. However, when the four Songdao ships approached under the surveillance of four destroyers, he realized that he was actually
Not much profit.
Because all four cruisers were injured, especially the flagship Matsushima, almost half of the guns were gone, there was still a big hole in the Naniwa's hull, Takachiho was also scarred, but the Japanese-made sail hybrid
The cruiser Kaohsiung was actually unscathed.
"Damn it, these little Japanese pots are broken and they don't know how to repair them." Governor Yang said with a depressed look. He didn't even think about how the Japanese would have the money to repair them now? Even their bones were about to be damaged by him.
Break it into pieces and eat it with those hungry wolves. If you have money to repair the ship, you might as well buy more rifles!
"Master Yang, this is not okay. You can't give us such a pile of rags. We paid you." Chen Shi, a veteran of the Hunan Army beside him, said hurriedly when he saw the situation. He was following Liu Kunyi's order.
I came here to receive it. Who would refuse such a good thing? When I heard that there were two 4,000-ton cruisers on offer, I had to hurry up.
"I know, I know! It's so much trouble to buy two 4,000-ton protected cruisers for two million taels of silver!" Yang Feng said impatiently. He found that this man was getting more and more stingy as he got older. He was a dignified Governor of Liangjiang, and that was also
The famous minister of ZTE actually spent the whole morning bargaining with him over telegrams for five hundred thousand taels of silver. You must know that the Japanese spent more than half a million pounds to buy these two warships. Only then did he notice that Dingzhen had
The Germans did get a good deal. Battleships were sold for the price of protected cruisers.
"Mr. Yang, we Liu Zhitai are not as rich as you and Li Zhongtang. These two million taels of silver were dug out from between the teeth of Jiangsu fathers. We must not be careless." Chen Shi smiled.
Said, they did get a big deal. The construction of Matsushima cost 350,000 pounds and the construction of Naniwa cost 210,000 pounds. According to the current price of silver, it would cost 3 million taels of silver. Now it is only 2 million. Although
It's an old boat but it's cheap enough. What's more, if you buy a new one now, you definitely can't buy it for three million.
"Who told you that you can't make money? You know that to rob the common people at home, you have to learn to rob the outside world and use it to subsidize the domestic industry. Isn't it a joke to always rely on plundering cheap foreigners in the country? Go back and train your troops.
Okay, next time I have a chance to make a fortune, I will take you to play with me, but we have also agreed here that you, Liu Zitai, have to take care of Jiangxi's affairs." Yang Feng said.
"Jiangxi? Are you talking about chasing down the rebels? We in Jiangxi and Jiangxi have no time to send troops, so you should thank your brothers for doing it for you." Chen Shi said. Liu Kunyi was too lazy to care about Jiangxi's affairs. Speaking of which, he looked down on De Shou.
It hasn’t been a day since I was unhappy. I wish Yang Feng would kill that guy quickly. Then no one from the imperial court would dare to send someone over as governor. Then he can push the Hunan Army’s people over. What a great thing!
Having said this, Yang Feng was relieved, because the road was not easy to travel, and his personal and material evidence had just been delivered. At this time, Li Yuncong had actually captured Ruijin, and was attacking Ningdu and Ganzhou in two directions! His
This kind of cross-border attack made Cixi feel like she had gained a treasure, and now she was reprimanded by an imperial edict. She was also ordered to retreat strictly. In short, it was to let all forces see how outrageous the true colors of this guy's wolfish ambitions were, and even gave Liu Kun an order.
, asking him to send his newly reorganized Hunan Army into Jiangxi to expel them!
Of course, a loyal court official like Liu Kunyi would definitely not be able to disobey the imperial edict, but the speed of dispatching troops was a little slow. It was expected that they would reach Nanchang in two months. It would be difficult for him to travel hundreds of miles for two months.
Under the command of the pilot boat, the four Songdao warships slowly sailed into the dock of Mawei Shipyard. After stopping, the Japanese sailors walked down the gangway one by one with humiliation and grief on their faces. In this way, they bid farewell to their warships forever, and even some
Those who were more emotional were lying there crying, and Yang Feng also shushed a little.
At this moment, a sad song suddenly came from the sea breeze, like the plaintive moan of an abandoned resentful woman, which made Yang Feng feel like a ghost. He soon discovered that the song came from Songdao.
The call came from the number. Just then, I was confused. I saw an old guy in his fifties walking out with two short legs, stroking the guardrail, lowering his head and singing. He was wearing a very gorgeous blue dress.
It is covered with ribbons and various medals, which makes people feel respectful when they look at it. Behind him is a slightly younger man in the same gorgeous military uniform.
"Who is this guy? How could the Japanese put such a madman on board?" Yang Feng asked maliciously.
"Commander of the Japanese Combined Fleet Ito Yuhiro, followed by Captain Hidaka Sonojo of Matsushima." Longweili watched with an awe-inspiring expression as he sang and knelt down on the deck to prepare for seppuku.
Commander Ito at work said.
Having said that, Commander Ito really had no choice but to commit seppuku. Not only did he completely lose the war, but he also had to humiliate himself by sending his warships to the enemy. As a soldier, this was
It is a more serious shame than surrender. There is no way to wash away it except hara-kiri. The reason why he did not commit hara-kiri in Japan is to show his enemies that the Japanese people will never surrender. Don't think that just because you win the war.
If you are proud, the spirit of the Yamato nation will never fail.
When he saw this situation, Yang Feng immediately became energetic and quickly asked people to get cameras and other equipment, and even got a small video camera. A group of people were there happily waiting for Commander Ito to commit seppuku.
This bad behavior aroused strong dissatisfaction among the Japanese sailors. Some even became extremely emotional and tried to rush over and beat them. Unfortunately, each of them was immediately beaten unceremoniously by the surrounding soldiers.
"What are you doing? Seppuku is your traditional Japanese culture. I am contributing to the promotion of your traditional culture. You are a bunch of ungrateful people!" Yang Feng glared and shouted at the Japanese sailors.
Commander Ito on the deck of Matsushima glanced at him contemptuously. While humming a Japanese song, he unbuttoned his shirt and pulled out his sword. He wiped it carefully with an expression of appreciation, and then looked up with infinite nostalgia.
He shouted toward the northeast: "Long live the Emperor!"
Immediately afterwards, he stabbed his own stomach with a saber. Next to him, the captain of the Matsushima, Hidaka Sonosei, who acted as the intermediary, raised the knife and dropped it very gracefully. At the moment when the camera flash sounded, a huge human head rolled away.
Falling on the deck, blood spurted out from his neck, forming a gorgeous color against the background of the setting sun.
A dazzling new star that was rising was just slapped away by his own devil's claws. Thinking about the almost invincible combined fleet across the Pacific Ocean in history, thinking about the towering Yamato Musashi, Governor Yang couldn't bear it.
Zhu let out a long sigh.
After finishing his fault-finding work, Hidaka Sonosho turned the tip of the knife and then stabbed it into his own body. Because he was worried that they would behave irrationally, all the Japanese guns on these warships had been
If it is taken away, only the officer can keep the knife and so on.
Although under the current situation, assassinating Yang Feng is tantamount to dragging the entire nation to commit suicide, you still have to be prepared. After all, this guy has caused so much harm to Japan. What if any soldier can't think about it for a moment!
"Find a coffin for burial and let these sailors take it back! This can be considered a man!" Looking at Captain Hidaka and the headless Commander Ito who were twitching in pain on the deck, Yang Feng turned to Lang
Willie said, and Commander Long nodded with deep emotion. As a fleet commander, defending one's honor with death is a respectable behavior.
As for the Japanese sailors who came with the ship, they will return to Japan on merchant ships. There is no need to worry about these. The maintenance of these four cruisers is also very simple. At this time, the Mawei Shipyard is undergoing large-scale reconstruction and expansion. Just find them from Europe.
There are thousands of employees here, and all kinds of new equipment are constantly arriving, especially welding equipment, ranging from gas welding to electric welding. These GE welding machines are high-tech even in Europe.
, repairing such a warship is a piece of cake.
In addition, two 10,000-ton shipyards, a large thermal power plant using three-phase alternating current that has just begun to be promoted, two latest electric arc furnaces and a shipborne artillery factory are currently under construction.
It has a large scale and is imitating the licensed Armstrong six-inch rapid-fire cannon, and has already produced products that can be replaced on these warships. The interior of the shipyard has also been reorganized, and all the rubbish that rely on connections to suck blood have been driven away, especially
Those who know nothing but intrigues must not be allowed to stay. Wages have also been readjusted, and the wages of technical personnel have been significantly increased. Those old technicians who have been suppressed for a long time have not only increased their wages, but also arranged to travel abroad for inspections.
Yes, there is a strict reward system for outstanding performance, and for a while the entire shipyard felt like spring.
After appreciating the ending of the combined fleet and the unexpected surprise of the seppuku show, and completely satisfying his bad taste, Governor Yang sat in his limousine and left Mawei to return to Fuzhou with satisfaction. He hurried back to continue his relationship with Lafayette.
