Among the four fleets, the Guangdong Navy Division is almost all warships with a tonnage of about 3,000 tons, and the only battleship is the Ningyuan ordered from Britain that year.

"Lao Li, the handsome man is so transferred. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info does it mean that the direction of the entire navy has begun to be transferred? Yan Fu, the chief of staff on the side, took a cup of tea and walked in front of Li He, looked at the warship entering the port in the distance, handed the teacup to Li He and asked.

Li He took the tea. After looking at Yan Fu, he nodded, judging from the current situation, the situation is indeed like this, several large battleships have all arrived in Guangdong, which is more or less for the British Far East Fleet, that is to say, in the future, their opponent will be the British fleet.

"Yes, a few years ago, the marshal mentioned that the future construction of the navy will be planned to move to the south, and at present, the Hongzhang Yixin, our most powerful battleships have arrived in Guangdong, which is the best explanation." It seems that in the future, the strong establishment of the Beiyang Naval Division will not exist, and hearing this, Yan Fu will inevitably feel a little sad in his heart.

"Report, Lushun Command emergency call." No matter what Yan Fu thought in his heart, the guards outside still handed Yan Fu a telegram in their hands,

"What's the situation?" Seeing Yan Fu's eyes widen, Li He, who put the teacup on the coffee table, asked with a puzzled expression.

Yan Fu put the telegram aside, and then said: "The commander has an order, let us lead the Beiyang Naval Division Hongzhang, the Yixin and the Spooder, together with the two Exocet-class torpedo cruisers, to visit Germany together with the German High Seas Fleet Osguta." ”

What kind of routine is this, Li He, who heard this, was even more confused, he had never heard the question of visiting Germany, why suddenly, the marshal actually decided to visit Germany, but since the marshal had decided, what he could do was to make preparations.

"Where is the Osguta battleship now?" Li He, who took the telegram and looked at it, asked Yan Fu beside him.

Yan Fu was still very clear about these problems, bowed his head and thought for a while, Yan Fu said: "After the end of the war with Japan, all the German fleets were stationed in Fukushima Military Port. ”

In Fukushima, in this way, they have already decided where to set up the military base, thinking of Li He in front of the corridor map here, the establishment of a base in the Fukushima area will not have any impact on Liaodong, but for him Americans, it is estimated that it is a nightmare, or it is okay to give Americans a headache.

"Send an inquiry to Wilhelm, commander of the German fleet in Fukushima, asking when they will be able to arrive in Guangdong,"

"Got it." Half an hour later, Yan Fu walked in with a telegram and said to Li He: "William calls, the Osguta has departed from Fukushima Military Port at two o'clock today, and is expected to arrive in Huangpu at about 11 o'clock at noon the day after tomorrow. ”

Three days, that is, the time from preparation to departure, is no more than four days at most. Time is very urgent, Li He, who thought of this, looked up at Li He: "Herald, Hongzhang Yi?" The Spooky, the Exys Wyvern, immediately entered the dock for a final inspection, and in addition, asked the Quartermaster Department to procure items immediately. Loading into the above warship. ”

Yan Fu knew that he was doing this in order to be able to leave for the arrival of the Osguta, so he did not object, but answered, turned around and went out to start delivering orders.

"What is the Marshal doing this for?" When Yan Fu walked out, Li He kept asking this question in his heart, but he also knew that many times, when Liu Jun gave orders, it was confusing, but after being confused for a while, he could understand Liu Jun's intentions. This is a judgment made by Li He over the years based on his understanding of Liu Jun.

Lushun, the British Legation, because the relationship with Liaodong is not very good, over the years, Liaodong and the British Embassy are not very diligent, the biggest movement, is just during the New Year's holidays, everyone means, as for other times, that is, everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, no one cares about anyone,

The British envoy to Liaodong has been changing relatively quickly, and the person who is now serving as the minister of Liaodong is Jim Green, a diplomat who was once stationed in Germany.

Jim Green's reputation in the Liaodong area is not good, nor too bad, in the investigation of the intelligence department, this person is generally in the legation, but he is very close to the French side, this point, Liu Jun understands, after all, France and Britain are very close, it is not unusual at all. 、

Wave........ Sitting on the couch, Jim Green exhaled the smoke of a cigar cigarette, then closed his eyes and picked up a cup of coffee from the side, which he felt was the example that the correct solution wanted.

Since serving as the minister of Liaodong, Zhengjie has never been so relaxed. came to Liaodong just to give Liaodong Liu Jun a face, but the empire never thought of communicating with Liaodong, and the purpose of coming here was not so much to establish diplomatic relations. It's better to scout for intelligence.

Knock knock knock........ There was a knock on the door outside, which made Jim Green, who was sitting on the black couch, open his eyes, and after throwing the cigarette butt into the ashtray, Jim Green showed the unexpected person to come in.

Raising his eyes, Jim Green saw his adjutant Major William, who was also the military attache of Liaodong, walking in.

"Your Excellency, I have just received information that the Northeast Liaoning Ocean Naval Division has decided to make a friendly visit to the German High Seas Fleet."

Bang, the coffee cup in his hand fell to the ground. For all this, Jim Green didn't care, and now in his mind, one thing appeared, that is, the Beiyang Naval Division visited Germany.

"Is what you're saying true?" Jim Green, apparently not believing this fact, stood up at once and asked William, who was a head taller than him.

"Your Excellency, the Liaodong newspaper and the German newspaper have already reported on this matter. You see. As he spoke, Major William took a newspaper from his military uniform and handed it to Jim Green.

Damn, Jim Green, who took the telegram and read it, wanted to commit suicide, and the front page news on it was that the Beiyang Naval Division was invited to make a friendly visit to the German High Seas Fleet.

What is this, is really access, there is no question yet, but Jim Green worries that on the surface, they are visiting, but in fact, what is the transaction behind the scenes, this is not going to be done. (To be continued.) )
