Chapter 1375 This Is Not War, It's Peace (First update, please subscribe)
A huge plume of smoke rose high from the "Sevastopol". At this moment, the 28000-ton warship was lifted up from the sea like a toy, and even the stern turret was destroyed. Throw it to a height of hundreds of meters.

"Russians are fucked... damn Brits..."

Staring at the sea, Zhang Guoren muttered for a while and didn't even know what to say. He once again rejected the suggestion of his subordinates to let him enter the air-raid shelter. As the governor of the royal territory of the Persian Gulf, he was completely confused.

Although he had thought that the British might take some action, in his opinion, the British would block the port at most, and force him to "ask" the Russians to leave by prohibiting the entry and exit of merchant ships. It is unimaginable that the British actually disregarded public international law and directly bombarded the Russian warships moored in Daming Harbor. This is simply...

"Shameless, extremely shameless!"

When Zhang Guoren angrily cursed the shamelessness of the British, the subordinate officer beside him said.

"My lord, we have to report to the country and go through international arbitration..."

Before the subordinate officer finished speaking, Zhang Guoren rolled his eyes at him and said.

"What about international arbitration? There is no arbitration committee anymore. Now is the time for the cannon to speak. It's war! The empire is going to war with Britain!"

When it came to war, Zhang Guoren was helpless. He glanced at his own harbor. Although the shells did not land on the shore, what could he do now in the face of this naval battle?

He can't do anything... because the empire didn't build a fort in Kuwait Harbor at all, because here... there is no need.

If the British enter Kuwait City, Zhang Guoren has to think about this issue now. In the past, he didn't need to think about it at all, because this royal territory is backed by the French colony of Basra and the Governor-General of St. Eugene.
But now, he has to consider the defensive issues here, staring at the "Sevastopol" that is rapidly sinking into the sea, Zhang Guoren's eyes lit up, and he said to himself,
"These Russian warships may be used as waste. After they are sunk by the British, they can send divers to check their turrets. These are several dozen-inch double-linked cannons. If they are installed in This, then we are impenetrable..."

It has to be said that Zhang Guoren, as a great official in the frontier, can also see opportunities from the crisis, at least he can see the benefits to himself. As for the life and death of the Russians...it has nothing to do with him.The most important thing is those turrets. That turret is worth millions of dollars. If it just sinks in the sea, it will be a waste.

As for divers and salvage companies, you can hire them from China!

"These British guys, aren't they bullying people? How can they bully the few with the more? Even when they fight, they don't bring..."

But looking at the British warships swarming up to attack the Russians, Zhang Guoren couldn't help cursing.

"War... Damn the British guy, broke my good life..."

Zhang Guoren was not the only one who broke the good days!
In fact, accompanied by the rumble of gunfire in the port of Kuwait, being beaten is a good time for the whole country!
Even the era of peace in the whole world has been broken!
……

finally come!

In the royal study, Emperor Zhu looked at the report in front of him. He first took out a cigar from the cigar case, cut off the end of the cigar, lit it, took a puff silently, and said after exhaling the smoke.

"How many casualties did we have?"

"Your Majesty, when the British bombarded the port, one of the shells landed in the urban area. According to the current statistics, about 136 people were killed or injured, of which 89 died..."

Although Qian Degong's tone is heavy, but in this incident, what is this?

But it's just numbers!

All casualties in war are just numbers.

And this is just the beginning.

"Damn Brit!"

Emperor Zhu frowned.

"Offend our country, kill my compatriots, do you really think we won't retaliate?"

"Your Majesty, the British ambassador expressed his willingness to negotiate with our country on the "Kuwait Port Incident" to discuss matters related to this matter."

Zhuge Jun, Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, specifically emphasized when referring to the British ambassador's representations.

"They are willing to give the highest damage compensation to end this incident peacefully!"

"They are delusional!"

Emperor Zhu sneered.

"When the British fired their guns, they never thought of making peace with us. Even if they negotiated, there would be no results. As for the compensation for the loss. How much can they pay? One hundred thousand? One million? Even ten million, that is It doesn't help the matter. For the empire, we have lost not only the lives of the subjects of the empire, but more importantly - the dignity of the empire. What they are challenging is the dignity of the empire. If we allow them to bully us like this, Without any reaction, then... where is the dignity of the empire?"

When Emperor Zhu said these words, he let out a long and helpless sigh in his heart.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

For the empire, as long as the Ming Empire wants to maintain the existence of the empire, it must undertake its mission, and what is the most important point in the mission of the empire?
It's "Peace Under Empire"!
For the Roman Empire, it was to realize and guarantee "Pax Romana" in the Mediterranean and surrounding areas.

For the Huaxia Empire, it is to maintain and guarantee the "heavenly order" around the empire.

For the British Empire, it is to maintain the "world order" they established after Nelson.

It is also because of this that the empire does not tolerate any challenge, even if this challenge comes from another powerful empire.

"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. Since the dignity of the empire has been damaged, we must go through war to let others understand that the empire cannot be challenged, nor can it be offended! The empire will give resolute punishment to any offense. fight back!"

His Majesty's words made everyone's hearts tremble slightly. In fact, they were not surprised by all of this. After all, what the empire lacked all along was a reason to join the war, and now the British... they put The reason came up.

Faced with such an opportunity, how could the empire miss it?
Of course, all this is kept secret, and the world will only see - the Empire is forced to fight back!
After saying these words, Emperor Zhu thought for a while and said:

"This is not war! This is peace—the enduring peace of mankind, and when all this is over...the war will die, and the once barbaric world will be at peace."
