Steel Dynasty - Chapter 1150

[Chapter 1138 The rolling wheel]

“This group of despicable British people, the imperial fleet paid them a friendly visit, and they actually took the opportunity to detain our warship for half a month!”

When the morning sun came up, the anger of the people of Qingzhou City was suddenly revealed. Then the contents of the newspaper ignited.

Every household in the streets and alleys is discussing this issue.

“The British must be taught a harsh lesson. The war in India did not harm the British mainland. The British in the UK cannot appreciate the power of the empire. They will only live in the dream created by British politicians. The only way to teach these British citizens is to use artillery shells. , they will understand their current status. “

Beside the Empire State Building under construction in Qingzhou City, workers were discussing the contents of the newspaper excitedly.

“It’s enough to teach those politicians a lesson. They are not wrong for killing people.” A worker said while eating noodles.

The worker reading the newspaper suddenly showed a sneer on his face and said, “I don’t understand even if I tell an idiot like you.”

“Who are you calling an idiot? What did I say wrong?” The worker who was ridiculed was a little angry.

“Then let me ask you, who made the British guns and bullets? Who enjoyed the dividends of British expansion and lived a high-quality life, and who supported British foreign colonization for a better life?” The workers holding newspapers asked one by one.

“Of course it’s the British themselves.” The worker understood and said with a guilty conscience.

“Isn’t that true? Which British soldier doesn’t come from a British family? Why don’t they think about the innocence of others when they commit massacres outside?”

“That’s right, it is said that British people are rewarded for killing people.” Someone echoed .

“You are not wrong at all in saying that. There will be no innocent souls under the Empire’s artillery shells. For the same reason, we are all willing to advance and retreat with the Empire.”

“…”

The workers agreed one by one.

Qingzhou Naval Academy.

When the newspaper was delivered here, the Naval Academy was strangely angry. One of the anger came from anger against the British, and the other was anger at the Imperial Navy for not taking strong action.

“Our navy can’t hold its head high now. I really don’t understand why Commander-in-Chief Yue Yun is willing to endure such humiliation.”

A trainee was trembling with anger and wished he could board a warship now to teach the British a lesson.

Once upon a time, Yue Yun was a role model in the Naval Academy, and every trainee regarded him as a lifelong goal.

But this incident obviously changed the minds of these students.

They no longer worship Yue Yun as an idol because they suddenly discovered that Yue Yun also made stupid mistakes.

“If it were me, I would rather die in battle than live…” another student shouted.

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a pain in his buttocks, and he flew out and fell over.

When he raised his head, he realized that his instructor Ding Chang was standing behind him.

“It’s very leisurely, isn’t it? Everyone runs around the playground ten times. If anyone dares to be lazy, I will break his legs!”

Ding Chang said angrily.

The students were all silent when they saw Ding Chang. They were well aware of the instructor’s fiery temper. They went to the playground one by one and ran faster than a rabbit.

All the students had left. Ding Chang looked at Liu Chen beside him and said, “The general’s reputation has been completely ruined.”

Liu Chen said, “Yes, many naval generals now criticize the general. Not now.” How many people are still worried that they will be implicated? This is really ironic.”

“There are treacherous people at any time. It is normal for some people to only want to get promoted and make money. It is a pity that the general has been dismissed from his official position for half his life. A stain for life,” Ding Chang said.

“Just let it be a stain. It’s better than losing your life. The general will be fifty this year, and he has a family full of children and grandchildren. What could be more real than enjoying family happiness,” Liu Chen said.

Ding Chang looked at Liu Chen, “Then what do you think?”

“The order has been issued. The emperor wants to cut off all British maritime power. I am going to Europe to wash away our shame.” Liu Chen said.

Ding Chang nodded when he heard the words, “We have to fight back, otherwise where will our naval academy’s face be in the future?”

Liu Chen sighed. Yue Yun was dismissed from office. Today’s navy has truly become a four-point world. He thought about it for a long time. , he vaguely understood something, but these could not be said openly.

Morning tea shop.

Niu Ben and Luo Quan were drinking morning tea. With the rise of the empire, the empire’s living standards improved rapidly.

There are a dazzling array of shops selling various businesses in Qingzhou City, but what he and Luo Quan prefer the most is morning tea.

“Yue Yun is not stupid, but this matter could have been handled better.” Luo Quan drank tea, his voice filled with vicissitudes of life.

Niu Ben was reading the newspaper with his reading glasses on. He glanced at Luo Quan. In the past two years, they had handed over the ranch to their family to take care of. After all, he was getting old and some things were beyond his ability.

Especially for Luo Quan, after Luo Hong’s death, he seemed to have run out of energy overnight and was no longer interested in anything.

“That’s what he said, but who can understand his real thoughts?” Niu Ben said.

Luo Quan took a sip of tea and said, “No matter what, the emperor’s current status is unshakable.”

Niu Ben nodded and smiled, “It doesn’t matter what he does with these things. As the saying goes, he can’t do anything if he’s not in his position. Besides, the empire’s weapons and equipment are updated too fast. Old bones like us can’t keep up. It’s better to leave it to the young.” People do it, why are they occupying the latrine and not shitting?”

“Hahaha…” Luo Quan couldn’t help laughing when he heard this. He pointed at Niu Ben and said: “Image, image, the current empire is full of talents, it is indeed not the same as before. It’s hard to find a general like that. “

While the two were chatting, the cabinet and the general staff were busier than ever.

Pang Yukun issued an order requiring the Imperial Shipyard to fully produce various types of transport ships and warships, purchase various food cans from canneries, and at the same time open the construction of the Suez Canal to the private sector and allow private construction companies to participate in the Suez Canal project.

Cui Shangan asked the military factories to mass-produce various weapons and ammunition, speed up the installation of second-generation Han-style rifles, howitzers and tanks, and strive to expand the generation gap between the two sides in the war.

At the same time, the General Staff also requested the automobile factory to provide a large number of military transport vehicles. They will fully utilize the empire’s technological advantages in this war.

While the empire was actively preparing for the upcoming war, Xiao Ming formally signed the order to fight against Britain in the Imperial Study Room.

This order was immediately sent to the British Embassy in Qingzhou City, and at the same time that the declaration of war was sent, Xiao Ming ordered the expulsion of all British people in the territory.
