Chapter 350 Nan Hua Won't Be So Shameless (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
There will always be many chance encounters in life, but that kind of encounter is destined to have no results.
Sometimes people who meet each other quickly forget each other.Of course, Angela, who is in Buenos Aires, does not know that someone is thinking of her. In recent days, she has been complaining to the Ministry of War, wanting to return her house, but at this time, no one seems to care She, even if her husband is a major in the army, so what?
In the past, they were colleagues, even friends.But now?It's just a person whose whereabouts are unknown and whose life and death are unknown.
So much so that after Angela came to the Ministry of War, no familiar friends were willing to help her at all.
"Ma'am, you should understand that this is a time of war, and I believe your patriotism can make you understand all this!"
In the Ministry of War, the officer in charge of receiving her said directly to Angela.
"No patriotic Argentine would let his troops sleep on the streets!"
"Shouldn't the army, should patriotic Argentines be sleeping rough?"
Although Angela's rhetorical question made the officer not know how to answer, he still chose to remain silent.
"Sir, I'm a patriotic Argentine, but tell me where I live? Sir!"
Looking at the officer in front of her, Angela asked herself unceremoniously.
"I am willing to help the army, but the army took away my home! It belongs to my home. Not only can I not go back home now, but I can only watch you take my home away!"
"No, ma'am, it's not taking it away, it's just living there temporarily, and we will pay the rent."
When the officer was speaking, he had a smile on his face, as if he was telling her, don't worry, we will definitely not let you suffer.
"Rent? Where is the rent?"
Angela sneered.
"When the war is over, you can ask for it at the War Department."
At the end of the day, the officer reminded Angela as if he was showing kindness.
"You can go there to register in a while, and the Ministry of War will issue you a certificate. After the war is over, the Ministry of War will definitely pay you the corresponding rent and compensation."
Looking at Angela who was still aggrieved, the officer comforted him again.
"Ma'am, you are an officer's wife. During this special period, you should know the importance of travel obligations. I think this is what your husband would like to see, and you also hope that he will receive the same courtesy when he is out of town. "
Would you take his house if he was still alive?
Angela wanted to question this person loudly, but it didn't make any sense anymore.
These guys are simply a group of robbers!
"Where is the office of Mr. Minister?"
Angela, who was already too lazy to entangle with this guy, asked.
"Ma'am, the minister is very busy. During this important period, he certainly doesn't have time to see you."
……
Facts have proved that no one will pay attention to Angela's complaint. In the end, when Angela said that he wanted to see the minister, she was even kicked out of the Ministry of War by soldiers. If it wasn't because she was a woman, she might have I wouldn't be so polite.
"What a bunch of bastards!"
Standing in front of the door of the Ministry of War, Angela said angrily.
What she felt now was a sense of powerlessness from the bottom of her heart. She didn't know what made those people so shameless.
Just when Angela was shrouded in an unprecedented sense of frustration, she felt something floating in the air, and looked up at the air, her eyes full of surprise.
"That's it? Snow?"
White snowflakes... no, paper, thousands of papers falling from the sky,
How could there be pieces of paper falling in the air?
Everyone looked at the sky in doubt, at the pieces of paper falling from the sky.
These leaflets were dropped by the airship to warn the people in the city.
Angela is like everyone else.Reaching in the air and grabbing a leaflet, she saw it was written in Spanish.
"Citizens of Buenos Aires, in order to achieve peace, we will bomb key targets in the city of Buenos Aires. In order to reduce unnecessary civilian casualties, please evacuate the city immediately..."
Not only Angela was watching, but other people were also watching. People all over Buenos Aires were looking at the leaflets that fell from the sky. Not only were there words written on the leaflets, but also pictures were printed on them—the story of the bombing of the city by airships. picture.
Just these pictures can let people on the ground understand what they are about to suffer!
"We're done, the South Chinese are going to bomb Buenos Aires with airships!"
People on the street screamed in horror. They had heard about the horror of the airship. Even the surrender of General Alsina was rumored to be caused by the bombing of the airship. Among many rumors, the airship dropped A bomb can easily blow up a house and wipe a battalion of soldiers from the world.According to some rumors, bombs dropped by airships could even cause an earthquake that leveled a town.
Although for such rumors, no one would really believe him.But absolutely no one will doubt that the airship is an extremely powerful weapon.
And for the airships flying in the sky, they are powerless.Can only be bombed on the ground.
In the past, people in Buenos Aires knew that airships were scary, but they didn't think it was a big deal. After all, airships are war machines, and war machines are aimed at the army. They are civilians. What does war have to do with civilians? Woolen cloth?
But now, the airship is going to Buenos Aires to bomb the city!And they're all likely targets.
At this moment, all the nightmares about the airship emerged in their hearts.
"God! Run away!"
In the next few hours, the streets were full of chaos, like the end of the world.People ran up and down the streets in panic, unattended children sat there howling and crying, women screamed and cried in terror.
It seemed that at this moment the end of the world really came.The carriages on the street were crowded one by one, and everyone was scrambling to escape to the outside of the city.People fleeing outside the city would beat and insult each other as they fought for the road.They will even draw their pistols and pull the triggers at each other, robbing the opportunity to get out of the city.
Under the threat of death, the whole of Buenos Aires fell into unprecedented chaos.
In this chaos, no one is there to maintain order, and everyone is shrouded in fear.
If it weren't for the officers in the army to maintain order there, I'm afraid those soldiers would have fled the city as well.In this chaos, only those troops from other provinces, because they didn't know the power of the airship, just looked at all this blankly, and they would even laugh at other people's cowardly behavior.
But for most people in Buenos Aires, they may not have seen an airship, but they have no doubts about the power of an airship.
Among the chaotic crowd, Angela once again left the city with Anna, Emily and their aunt Sherry, but they did not join the team fleeing outside the city, but rushed in the opposite direction.
"Go to the port. There are British warships there. They will definitely not provoke the British."
Xie Li said confidently that her dead husband was a British immigrant, and she was fascinated by the strength of the UK.
In fact, she is not the only one who thinks this way. Most of the English immigrants in and around Buenos Aires think so. They even painted a big "Union Flag" on the wharf warehouse, as if they wanted to Alert the airships in the sky - this is England.
Of course, this is definitely not British territory, but the Union Jack is at least showing them their identity.
They believed with this flag.The airship in the sky will definitely not drop bombs at them.
After arriving at the port, Angela and his party came to the warehouse. When Xie Li saw the huge rice character drawn on the top of the warehouse, she had to say it triumphantly.
"Look, there's a Union Jack on the roof. Surely they'll see..."
Angela looked at the flag full of doubts—is this flag really useful?
"Does this work?"
Standing on the boat, Major General Henrys looked at the huge Union Jack flag drawn by the expatriates on the roof of the warehouse with some doubts, and asked Edward Thornton.
Unlike ordinary expatriates, as an ambassador, he evacuated to a warship. Compared to evacuating outside the city, a warship is undoubtedly the safest place.
In any case, Nan Hua's airships will not bomb their warships.After all, this is a warship of Great Britain.
"General, whether the Union Jack is useful or not depends on you!"
Standing on the "Minotaur" ironclad ship, what Edward Thornton felt was extreme self-confidence.
This is an ironclad ship with a displacement of more than 24 tons. Its firepower is extremely powerful. It has four nine-inch naval guns and 7 seven-inch naval guns, and the iron armor is nearly five inches thick. It is simply invincible The presence.
Coupled with the "Hector" of more than [-] tons, it is enough to awe the people of South China!
Of course, what is even more awe-inspiring is the strong national power of Britain behind the fleet.As for warships, they are just a manifestation of national power.
And all of this is what the British are proud of in this era!
"Of course, Mr. Ambassador, please believe that if they hurt our nationals, we will definitely not sit idly by!"
Major General Henrys said directly.
Over the years, the Royal Navy has never disappointed the British expats, and it is no different now.
"As the Prime Minister said - the Royal Navy will always be the most solid backing for the overseas Chinese! The reason why I had doubts before was to know if I could see the "Mi Ziqi" from the sky... "
After thinking about it, Henrys said.
"We have never been to the sky, who knows if those guys can see it? If they can't see it, or if they say they haven't seen it, we have no way to refute it!"
refute?
Compared to refuting, Henrys wanted to know how to fight back. His cannons definitely couldn't hit the airship, but the airship, whether the airship can attack his warship, this... I'm afraid only God knows.
"They... shouldn't be so shameless!"
When he said this, Edward Thornton was a little uneasy. He really felt that the other party might really do this.
Is this kind of thing shameless?
It's just an excuse. If it was him, he would definitely find this excuse.
It's too far away for me to see.
Or because the height is too high, our sight is blocked by something.
And they will also say that because the distance is too high, the bomb has some deviation under the head.This is also unavoidable.
In a word, if it were him, there would be countless reasons and excuses to explain it. In the end, it was just a mistake.
Edward Thornton's uneasiness fell into Henry's eyes, making him a little uneasy,
Shameless?
Is this shameless?
He has seen more shameless things than this over the years, even if the South China people are really so shameless, they say "I didn't see clearly".
What can they do?
He looked at the nearby port, and then at his warship, which was so close to the port.
A thought came to Henrys' mind—if the bomb fell on the warship, it would be all over.
Whether it was flying too high to see clearly, or the bomb was blown off by the wind when it fell.As long as the bomb falls on the warship, they will be the ones who will be killed or injured at that time, and even he himself may become a joke.
At that time, whether it is compensation or compensation, it will have nothing to do with him. The loss of reputation will be accompanied by life, and if you lose your life, it will be even more worth the loss.
"Mr. Ambassador, for your safety, I think we should retreat further from the port, what do you think?"
After making up his mind, Henrys said to the ambassador.
This damned old slick, looking at Henrys, Edward Thornton certainly knew what the other was thinking, and what was for his safety, this old slick was clearly a coward.
All right!There is no shame in being a coward at this time.
No, not a coward.They are just for better observation.
"Of course, General."
Edward Thornton said.
"A longer distance will help us better observe the effect of the bombing, what do you think? General."
"Indeed, for us, it is more important to observe the effects of the bombing."
Henrys couldn't help but praise Edward's cleverness. These guys can always find many reasons to hide their timidity.
No, not timidity.
They are just for better observation and a better understanding of what kind of weapon the airship is.
The British retreat!
Almost when the "Minotaur" and "Hector" were ignited, people near the port had a desperate thought in their hearts-they were abandoned by the British!
