Chapter 532: Eat Depending on Your Ability
This is the Liaodong Fleet, even since the establishment of the Fujian Naval Division, the country's first fleet stationed abroad, Jiang Chaoying is very clear, this mission seems simple, in fact, he is the first time to comprehensively let the world know about the Liaodong Navy.
"Understood." The first mate nodded, turned and walked out.
In Hawaii, the sun is already gradually turning west, and at this time, the people of Hawaii are at home to escape the heat. But today, although the sun outside is as high as 30 degrees, the people of Hawaii are crowded on the pier, stretching their necks to look at the sea.
In the distance, a vantage point from which to observe the harbor. More than a dozen people are wearing Hawaiian military uniforms to protect the soldiers, standing there quietly, the first is a woman, this woman in her hand, holding a cane symbolizing imperial power, this person is the current queen of Hawaii.
The queen looked very young, and now she was sitting quietly in a fine chair, with her hand on her forehead, looking out at the sea in the distance.
"Queen, they have arrived." An official walked over and said quietly after bending down.
When she arrived, the queen's eyes widened, but there were still no ships in sight of the sea. In front of her, there was only a dark cloud in the distance, but the dark cloud looked strange.
"Where are you talking about, why haven't I seen it?"
Although the Queen of Hawaii had seen a warship, it was American, and the United States wanted to annex itself and sent a warship here, but later with the help of Liaodong, the warship moored here for a month before leaving, at that time, she was under house arrest by the United States, and she never saw smoke coming out of the warship at all.
"I just saw the clouds in the distance." Perhaps realizing that she had not been clear enough, the queen added again.
The minister seemed to know the warship very well, and with a slight smile, the minister bowed his head again and said, "Your Majesty, that dark cloud is the smoke coming from the warship. ”
What the? These words frightened the queen, how big the warship must be, and how capable it can produce black clouds, which is really terrifying.
"Go get ready." Although the queen was surprised, she was not panicked, so she only hesitated slightly, and she ordered her ministers to do the preparatory ceremony, that is, to fire the salute.
As she drew nearer, the queen could now clearly see that smoke was rising from the chimney in the middle of a large white ship, and in front of the warship, she could clearly see that the two black and gloomy muzzles were bigger than her two fists.
A deafening whistle sounded, and the queen suddenly stood up from her chair, and now her eyes were completely attracted by the dozen or so warships. What attracted her the most was the warship that was twice as small as the one in front, it was a torpedo cruiser, but now there was no flag flying on it.
She knew very well in her heart that the warship was given to her by Liaodong.
When she signed the agreement with Liaodong, Liaodong made it clear that she wanted to give herself a torpedo cruiser for free to form a navy for Hawaii, and she originally thought that it was just Liaodong smashing and deceiving herself, after all, she signed those agreements, and she was a little unwilling, but now, all the warships have hoisted the yellow dragon flag, but this warship does not, so he estimates that this army is hers.
On the hill outside the pier, a cannon roared. There is no salute in Hawaii, and this cannon is an old-fashioned backyard cannon fired as a salute.
There was an earth-shattering bang, and the Empress saw with her own eyes that the largest warship let out an earth-shattering roar and spewed out an orange-red ceremonial flower.
With Liaodong, my Hawaii can be regarded as safe, and this transaction is cost-effective. The Queen's heart has been opened to change her views.
Snapping, putting the newspaper in his hand on the table, Liu Jun quietly looked at Zhong Lin and Zheng Yiqian, who occupied him. There was not a hint of embarrassment.
What's going on, isn't he even satisfied with the Hawaiian propaganda this time? Zheng Yiqian and Zhong Lin looked at each other the same. I don't understand what Liu Jun is thinking.
"Who made up this story?" Liu Jun pointed to the newspaper on the table that had been used to write the report on the Liaodong Fleet's entry into Hawaii and asked.
This one? After thinking for a while, Zhong Lin picked up the newspaper on it and looked at it and said, "Head, Li Fang, a reporter from Liaodong Foreign Affairs Daily."
Li Fang, Liu Jun narrowed his eyes, he remembered, this Li Fang, a student of Lushun University, worked in Lushun Newspaper after graduation, and once interviewed himself.
"Yes, I'm satisfied. You go and arrange when I will meet this reporter, this simply makes my Liaodong Army have a bright face. After Liu Jun finished speaking, he was satisfied with the teacup on the table.
The two people standing in front of them breathed a sigh of relief, they thought that Liu Jun was not satisfied with this matter.
"Head, don't worry, I'll arrange it in a while." Zhong Lin nodded, thought for a moment, stepped forward and said, "Head, now that Jiang Chaoying has arrived in Hawaii, the fleet is anchored in the port, looking for a place where a naval base can be established, and it is estimated that there will be news in a few days." ”
There is no need for Zhong Lin to say this matter, Liu Jun knows very well in his heart that where is the most suitable place to establish a naval base in Hawaii, and the reason why he did not say the location when Jiang Chaoying left is because he wants to investigate Jiang Chaoying's ability, if he can't even choose this, then I'm sorry, Liu Jun will remove him Jiang Chaoying and return to China as soon as possible, and then transfer Yang Yonglin, the commander of the Fujian Naval Division, to serve as the commander of the Pacific Naval Division.
The Pacific Naval Division is Liu Jun's current key construction direction, and even his construction has surpassed the current Beiyang Naval Division.
Originally, the combat mission of the Beiyang Naval Division, that is, to defeat the enemy of Japan was the Pacific Fleet of Tsarist Russia, but the plan was not as good as changing, under its own plan to lead the water to the east, the Japanese Combined Fleet had already eliminated the Pacific Fleet of Tsarist Russia, and now the enemy of Beiyang was a combined fleet with half a life left and the European fleet of Tsarist Russia that was rushing to Weihai.
Although the strength of the European fleet of Tsarist Russia seems to be very large, he knows very well what kind of warship it is, according to intelligence intelligence, the European fleet even took out the warships built 30 years ago to make up the number, it is conceivable that this Tsarist Russia is not an important enemy.
Once these two enemies are eliminated, then the next one, Liu Jun knows, is definitely the United Kingdom.
"Okay, tell Jiang Chaoying, and notify me as soon as you choose." Quietly, Liu Jun said after putting down the teacup in his hand.
