mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 460

No wonder, Kang Youwei dared to watch the excitement.

There are so many people here, looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Where Zhao Chuanxin didn't see it, Fritz Heinze also came, and of course Kang Youwei and He Zhan who mixed into the crowd also came to join in the fun.

Zhao Chuanxin found the nearest tavern and put the reins on the horse stakes.

Pushing the door open, he was surprised to find that besides the bartender, there were actually two other people in the tavern at this time.

The two were wearing tweed and dark gray suits, their hair was flattened by top hats, and their coats were casually draped over the backs of the chairs.

Seeing Zhao Chuanxin, the two got up at the same time, looking a little nervous.

Entering November, the weather in New York is starting to turn cold.

Zhao Chuanxin was wearing a navy blue fishtail trench coat made of wear-resistant canvas, with overalls draped over it.

The straight-leg trousers below looked loose, and looked a little stiff, because the leather of the wounds of war was embedded inside.

A pair of work boots with the upper tucked into the trouser leg.

The buttons of the windbreaker are hidden inside, as long as it is fastened, it can protect everything from the neck to the feet.

Seeing the nervousness of the two, Zhao Chuanxin stretched his neck, grinned at the corner of his mouth, came to the bar, and threw two coins: "My horse is outside, watch it for me, this is a tip."

The bartender looked at the two men, then at Zhao Chuanxin, his Adam's apple moved, and he swallowed: "Good sir."

Zhao Chuanxin turned around and wanted to leave.

The two said: "Wait."

Zhao Chuanxin turned around.

He has an extra Lugang M1907 in his hand: "I have something to solve quickly, my brother is very busy."

The two of them froze: "Mr. Zhao, we're just here to give a message."

"Say."

"Mr. Zhao, if you have any plans for our fleet, please think twice. Mr. Roosevelt told you that the fleet is prepared, and he has already guessed your thoughts."

When he saw these two people, Zhao Chuanxin had probably guessed their identities—secret agents.

He smiled: "Well, you should call Da Luo back now and tell him that I, Zhao Chuanxin, am not playing a conspiracy, I am an upright conspiracy. I act according to the rules, but who touched my meal After dessert, I turned over the table so that he couldn't have a proper meal."

Da Luo can guess one or two, Zhao Chuanxin is not surprised.

That's also personal.

Two people: "..."

Zhao Chuanxin asked again: "How did you know that I would come here?"

The secret service agent did not hide it: "Mr. Zhao, our people have been placed in various arteries. There are our people in the taverns and restaurants closest to the port. You and your horse are easily identifiable. "

Zhao Chuanxin didn't care about those, and turned around and left.

The two Secret Service agents looked at each other and hurriedly chased them out.

One of them followed Zhao Chuanxin from a distance, and the other rushed to make a phone call.

When they arrived at the pier, Zhao Chuanxin pulled the crowd away: "Let's all make way, let's make way, what the hell are you squeezing? That aunt, she's getting old, why are you here to join in the fun..."

Behind them, several secret service agents gathered, and they were no longer capable of Zhao Chuanxin. They pushed left and right, and the progress was slow. After a while, Zhao Chuanxin squeezed to the front of the crowd, and they only got halfway in.

There are many sailors in the Great White Fleet, and the total number should be around 14000.

In addition to the police who maintain order in the port, there are also sailors who come ashore to help.

The Great White Fleet is the pride of the Americans, and this moment is the highlight moment for the sailors.

After the Battle of Tsushima Sea, Da Luo's attitude towards Japan changed a lot.

This attitude, in turn, affects the people at the bottom.

Zhao Chuanxin heard someone shout: "Teach the little Japanese to be a man!"

There were countless echoes and loud whistles.

A sailor laughed wildly: "They will tremble with our fleet!"

Others shouted: "Bomb the butcher of the Far East and tell him to go back to Asia!"

This time, the atmosphere was a little cold.

Hearing this disappointing name suddenly seemed to pour cold water on the heads of fanatical believers in Grand Navalism.

The point is that they really can't be provoked. It is said that because some civilians in the German village helped the Southern Front to strengthen their momentum, they killed them with blood flowing into rivers. They are worthy of the reputation of "butchers".

But the sailor patted himself on the chest: "Whatever the butcher of the Far East, damn Faker, he is the younger brother in front of the Great White Fleet! Have you seen that big ship, it has the most advanced weapons and equipment in the world today, it is invincible of."

"Long live Teddy!"

Teddy is the folk "love name" for Da Luo.

The sailor's words broke the crowd's fear of the "Far East Butcher" and caused the crowd to shout endlessly.

The more people there are, the more courageous they are.

As if in response to their enthusiasm, the salute was fired and the military band played "The Star-Spangled Banner" in unison.

This pushed the atmosphere of the scene to a climax.

The special agent who communicated with Da Luo told the story of meeting Zhao Chuanxin at the port.

Da Luo pondered for a long while before he said stiffly: "This time is an actual combat test. Our naval fighters have gone all out to prepare for the battle. Our fleet stands majestically in the sea. Our main guns and auxiliary guns have been installed. If so, he can still succeed, then the whole world should be careful. Let him go."

Besides the port, Zhao Chuanxin looked at the lively scene and stepped forward with a smile.

The sailor who thought the Great White Fleet was invincible suddenly turned cold when he saw Zhao Chuanxin: "Asian guy, go back, this is not a place for you."

Zhao Chuanxin took out a cigar and lit it: "Don't stop me, I'm going to jump into the sea."

As he said that, with a seemingly light push, the sailor staggered backwards uncontrollably.

Zhao Chuanxin took advantage of the trend and walked to the port.

The rest of the police and sailors were taken aback, and they hurried over to help stop Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin raised his hand—Phoenix Xuanjie.

boom……

Several people flew out backwards.

Zhao Chuanxin jumped off the pier.

A group of special agents who finally squeezed in from behind disappeared Zhao Chuanxin.

The rest looked at each other.

Fritz Heinze in the crowd was surprised when he saw Zhao Chuanxin appearing and jumping into the sea.

At first he thought Zhao Chuanxin came to Kang Youwei.

On the other hand, Kang Youwei was overjoyed.

Could this person be overwhelmed?

"Look!"

"He can fly on the sea!"

"Look, he's as fast as the robber bird in the sky, that's amazing!"

Robber birds are frigate birds.

Zhao Chuanxin stepped on the smart gyroscope, cut through the wind and waves, and headed towards the Great White Fleet at an incredible speed.

It just so happened that the frigate bird was in the same direction as him, one high and one low, and the speed was synchronized.

He set up an awning to look around, and after spotting the Minnesota, he swam straight to the battleship.

The sea breeze blew his long hair, and the windbreaker fluttered. He couldn't keep his eyes open, so he took out his sunglasses and put them on.

Enter the Great White Fleet.

"Look, is that a person?"

"It's a human, how can he fly on the sea?"

"If there is a situation, tell Major General Thomas."

Da Luo said hello early in the morning, and both squadrons got the news.

The commander of No. [-] Squadron, II Squadron was Rear Admiral Charles W. Thomas.

On the Minnesota, the captain is John Harper, and the lieutenant is Captain Joseph Wilson, who is the father of the little girl Zhao Chuanxin rescued twice.

On the Great White Fleet, the recently developed radio technology was used for the first time.

On each main ship, 24 sets of radio transceivers are installed.

Not only can they communicate with each other, but they can also communicate with land during navigation.

"Minnesota, did you see that man flying over the sea, open fire in a while!"

The moment Zhao Chuanxin was discovered, Charles W. Thomas not only issued warnings to the ships, but also immediately informed the land of the situation here.

Da Luo also received the call immediately, and immediately became nervous.

Edith Roosevelt has returned to Washington and is by Da Luo's side.

Seeing that her husband was nervous, she couldn't help frowning, and persuaded gently: "Theodore, why don't you return the 750 million US dollars to Zhao Chuanxin, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."

Da Luo held a cigar, pursed his lips, and his eyes were somewhat angry: "Edie, no matter how powerful he is, he is only one person. I have already explained that as long as he dares to show up, he will open fire without hesitation. I am just curious , They radioed and claimed that Zhao Chuanxin was flying close to the surface of the sea, how is this possible?"

Edith Roosevelt bit his lip: "I think it's possible. I saw with my own eyes that he can release lightning and fly close to the surface of the sea. It's not surprising."

"..."

……

Zhao Chuanxin's speed was very fast, and he found that the guns were being adjusted on the ship.

At this time, there is no electric turret rotation system, everything needs to be manually calibrated.

Someone said in frustration: "He's too fast, can't be right!"

At this time, someone came to send an order: "All of them are available. Give up the main gun and use the secondary gun for fire coverage."

The height of the main gun turret on the Great White Fleet is very low, and the height of the secondary gun is just right.

Three destroyers quickly responded and outflanked Zhao Chuanxin.

Set up the machine gun and shoot first.

Zhao Chuanxin saw a large splash of water hundreds of meters away from the sea, his body tilted to the east, the smart gyroscope quickly adjusted, and he moved eastward in a slant.

Boom, boom, boom...

The secondary guns on the three battleships rang.

This time the splash was bigger.

But it is difficult to hit Zhao Chuanxin, who is advancing at a high speed.

A large group of sailors fired guns on the battleship, but the distance was more than a thousand meters, and the sea breeze was strong, so Zhao Chuanxin didn't bother to pay attention.

"Can't catch up with him!"

Destroyers are of course faster than battleships, but at full acceleration, they can exceed 30 knots at most.

It was less than a quarter of Zhao Chuanxin's speed at this time.

During this process, he managed to put on the mask in a leisurely manner.

The cigars were blown by the wind and burned faster than usual.

If Zhao Chuanxin hadn't put the hand holding the cigarette behind his back, it might have been blown out.

But before the cigar burned out, Zhao Chuanxin had arrived at a position less than 500 meters away from the Minnesota.

At this time, the guns on the ship had already posed a threat to him.

The smart gyroscope suddenly sank, and a bullet passed Zhao Chuanxin's head.

Then, the smart gyroscope began to help Zhao Chuanxin dodge bullets from left to right.

However, its explosive power under the sea was far inferior to that above the water. A few bullets hit Zhao Chuanxin and were blocked by the fortitude armor.

Zhao Chuanxin took out the assault rifle and chose burst mode.

He named the assault rifle he just designed - Goldberg M1907.

Although his big apprentice Benjamin Goldberg's contribution is very small, accounting for 90%, barely give him a name.

Unexpectedly, the first gun test was on the battlefield.

Chu Chu Chu!
Three sparks exploded from the side armor of the Minnesota.

The sailors on the boat were taken aback: "Secret, pay attention to concealment."

"He has great firepower!"

The distance is too far, Zhao Chuanxin's Goldberg M1907 has a limited ammunition accurate range, and it is normal to miss.

But the Goldberg M1907 was able to start smoothly without getting stuck, and Zhao Chuanxin was very happy.

The distance was too close, and the artillery fire could no longer cover it. At this time, machine guns and naval sailors' rifles became the main force of attack.

Zhao Chuanxin can sink his waist, but because the area of ​​the smart gyroscope cannot be used immediately, it is not very stable when holding a gun.

Sensing Zhao Chuanxin's needs, the smart gyroscope increased the tilt angle and moved forward so that Zhao Chuanxin could shoot steadily.

Chu Chu Chu!
"what……"
