"Lost, the Royal Navy is finished."

I don't know who shouted in the port, and suddenly the whole port fell into hysterical cries.

But their grief could not prevent the British Navy from being annihilated, and before darkness was about to fall over the land, the last British battleship was reduced to fire in the shelling.

On the King-class ironclad ship, Liu Chen and Xie Yuan showed a victorious smile, and today they finally let out a vicious breath.

But their mission isn't over, it's just beginning.

Liu Chen said: "The emperor has asked us to blockade Britain, and from now on we will control all routes to Britain and prohibit all non-imperial ships from passing. “

Xie Yuan nodded, and he said: "In this case, you and I will divide our troops into two routes, one in the east and the other in the west, and we will destroy other British ports at the same time as the blockade." ”

Liu Chen nodded when he heard this.

The next day.

When the sun rose and the British in London found that all the Imperial warships had disappeared overnight, a strange atmosphere suddenly enveloped London, and various speculations circulated in the streets.

Many believe that the Imperial warships chose to evacuate after destroying the British fleet, and some merchants were even preparing to set sail again for maritime trade.

But the bad news soon came, and some armed merchant ships trying to go to sea were sunk by Imperial warships patrolling the route, and the British finally came to their senses, and the Imperial Navy blocked British waters.

In the following period, news came from all over Britain to confirm this fact, and Imperial warships continued to attack British cities along the coast, sinking any merchant ships that went to sea. ‘

Britain as a whole is now in a cage, and this has caused panic throughout the country, and the British economy has been largely derived from the plundering of colonies and the dumping of domestic industrial goods at a time when Britain's industry is booming.

It can be said that Britain's strength is due to the establishment of vast colonies and overseas trade, and now that Britain's two lifelines have been cut off, it will not be long before Britain will be reduced to a country that does not enter the stream.

Compared with the panic of the British, the British aristocracy was even more unbearable, they gathered a large number of troops, mobilized the whole people, and prepared to fight the empire to the death on land.

But the empire did not play its cards according to the routine at all, and now this huge army suddenly became a burden, and it was a heavy burden for the current British government to raise so many soldiers without fighting.

After all, trade was cut off, and Britain itself simply could not support so many troops.

"Murphy, you can't disband my army, the war has just begun, and no one can guarantee that the empire will land."

In the House of Representatives, when Murphy proposed cutting parts of the Army, Buterin excitedly objected.

"I'm not talking about now, but about saying that if the blockade continues, we will have to make this decision, think about it, it is the overseas colonies that have fed the 20 million British people in Britain for two hundred years, in fact, there is no way to feed so many people on British soil, and once there is a shortage of food, no one can guarantee what will happen to Britain next." There was a deep frustration in Murphy's tone.

The parliamentarians were silent, the Royal Navy was all over, and they were powerless to lift the Empire's blockade of the British coast.

Buterin's face flushed, but he knew that his army could not fight at sea.

"We have lost this war, Britain without a navy is just a slope duck, Britain without the sea and overseas colonies will fall into decline, even if the empire withdraws in the future, the declining Britain will be bullied by the rest of Europe, so we might as well ask the empire for forgiveness, money, land, market, what they want, we will give us, as long as we can survive." A councillor shouted.

"Shameless!"

"Throw him out!"

“……’

The councillor's voice fell, and the whole chamber was like boiling water, and the councillors shouted and cursed, and the conditions mentioned by this man stung them deeply, because this was their policy towards the colonies.

However, some MPs chose to support the voice, because in their view, they are now facing the question of Britain's survival.

Murphy is also in a troubled mood right now, and the most important problem he faces is the 20 million mouths on the island.

The prosperity of industry has led British merchants to enclose a lot of agricultural land, and a large number of farmers have moved to work in urban factories, making British agriculture very fragile now.

If it wanted to feed so many people, Britain would have to destroy industry and return to the days of an agrarian nation.

"Silence! Now is not the time for infighting. Murphy roared, "Now that His Majesty and Brooke are in Moscow, if His Majesty is prepared to do something diplomatically, he will definitely send personnel to contact the Empire, now we just have to wait." “

Hearing this, everyone stopped arguing, and in the face of an uncertain future, they could only continue to wait.

Qingzhou.

The news of the Battle of London reached here three months later, and as soon as the news was published in the newspapers, the entire population of the empire boiled.

For them, this time they finally returned the humiliation they had endured.

"Your Majesty, in the battle of London, Britain will no longer be able to make waves on the sea, so take this opportunity to take Britain's colonies in South America as soon as possible."

In the imperial study, Pang Yukun said excitedly.

Cui Shangan said: "It's just that the blockade of 60 warships on the British coast is really stretched, and Liu Chen also mentioned that it is impossible to completely prevent British ships from going to sea, and Xia Guan suggested that the military factory should produce a batch of mines and send them to Europe as soon as possible, and use this blockade of the sea area." “

Xiao Ming nodded when he heard this.

With the improvement of the empire's industry, the empire's military industrial system is also becoming more and more perfect, and all kinds of weapons have special laboratories for research.

Three months ago, the Empire's contact mine experiment was successful, which means that the Empire's navy will have the ability to lay mines and block ports.

And this significantly reduces the onerous tasks of the battleship.

"Mines are a good thing, you urge the military factories to let them produce as soon as possible, I am afraid that if you want the British to give in this time, I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it in a year and a half." Xiao Ming said.

After a pause, he continued: "In addition to mines, the production of this tank and the production of military vehicles cannot be relaxed, and for the army of the empire, mechanization will be the next goal." ”

Cui Shangan was excited when he heard this, as long as he thought of the large group of tanks in the empire in the future, he would be so excited that he couldn't sleep, so he answered loudly.

Pang Yukun said: "It is a matter of time before Britain surrenders, and the old minister has already thought of the conditions to be put forward after the British surrender, doesn't this Britain want to steal the technology of the empire?" Then the empire will completely abolish the industrial capacity of Britain this time, forbid them to research weapons, and raise them as sheep to shear sheep. ”
