Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 15 Deception

Su Yi knew very well in his heart that the Bavarian-class battleship Yongxiang would definitely shock countries all over the world. After all, the Yongxiang was not built by any country in the world, and all countries in the world would be very curious about the origin of the Yongxiang, but Su Yi Of course, he would not tell others that the Yongxiang account was purchased from the system by himself, so Su Yi prepared another deceptive statement.

At the harbor pier in Xingang City, Liu Muqing looked at the dozens of warships parked at the berths, and asked Su Yi excitedly: "General Su, can you tell us about the origins of these warships in the Xingang Fleet? After counting, the Xingang Fleet should have two dreadnought battleships, two former dreadnought battleships, two large armored cruisers, six light cruisers and eighteen destroyers. This strength has surpassed the entire Royal Navy of the Liuyun Empire. !"

Su Yi dispatched a Bavarian-class battleship, six Wiesbaden-class light cruisers and eighteen Vickers-class destroyers, as well as [-] army-type primary combat biochemicals and [-] navy-type primary combat biochemicals. People, as well as a large amount of weapons, ammunition and supplies, were all extracted to the real world before ordering the large armored cruiser Flying Eagle to return to the port of Xingang City with the passenger ship carrying Jisk Empire military observers and Liuyun Daily reporters.

Su Yi immediately waited for the military observers of the Jisk Empire and the reporter of Liuyun Daily at the port pier. By the time the Flying Eagle and the passenger ship arrived at the port, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

Su Yi did not expect that the military observer of the Jisk Empire turned out to be a 20-year-old girl, and the reporter of Liuyun Daily was a 20-year-old super beautiful woman.

When Su Yi saw Liu Muqing for the first time, he was as shocked as Liu Muqing when he saw so many warships in the port of Xingang City.

In the original world, Su Yi saw too many beauties on TV and the Internet, but in terms of appearance and temperament, there were very few women who could compare with Liu Muqing in front of him. There was a ripple in his heart, and Su Yi immediately agreed to Liu Muqing's request to interview him.

The first time Liu Muqing saw Su Yi, the well-known hero of the Liuyun Empire, he was a little bit disappointed. The main reason was that Su Yi was too ordinary, about 170 cm tall, and his figure was a little bit Thin, with a face that is not ugly, but definitely not handsome, it is quite different from the image of a hero in Liu Muqing's mind.

Of course, in order to get an exclusive interview with Su Yi, Liu Muqing was still very enthusiastic about Su Yi, and Su Yi readily agreed to her request for an interview.

"Hehe, that... I can't be called a general, Ms. Liu should just call me by my name!" It may be that he has never met such a beautiful woman before, but when Su Yi talked to Liu Muqing, he felt a little nervous.

There is no military rank system in the armies of various countries in the world. Only the size of the official position. The title of general is handed down from the ancient army. Known as a general.

Liu Muqing said with a smile: "You must know that the captain of every battleship in the navy is equivalent to the deputy division commander or division commander of the army. You have such a powerful fleet under your command. Calling you a general is not at all That's too much! General Su, you haven't answered my question yet!"

Su Yi raised his hand and touched his nose, and then said: "It may be hard for people to believe what I said, but in fact, these warships of the Xingang Fleet belong to me personally, and these warships are in a secret shipyard built, and this secret shipyard does not belong to any country, it only belongs to me!"

"Secret shipyard? Doesn't belong to any country yet? General Su, can you reveal the exact location of this secret shipyard? How did you get this shipyard?"

Liu Muqing was even more excited at this time, a secret shipyard that does not belong to any country, what a news this is!Moreover, this secret shipyard can also build dreadnought battleships with a main gun with a caliber exceeding 305mm!

You must know that among the four great powers in the East, only the Purple Moon Empire can build dreadnought battleships, but the six dreadnought battleships currently in service in the Ziyue Empire only have a main gun with a caliber of 305 mm.

"I can only tell you that this shipyard is on an island. As for the specific location of the island and how to get this shipyard, I have nothing to say!"

"General Su, where are the soldiers under your command recruited? Are they from the Liuyun Empire?"

"Sorry, Miss Liu, this is my secret too."

"General Su, can you introduce the parameters of the two dreadnought battleships in detail?"

"The two Yongzi-class dreadnought battleships, the first ship is Yongxiang, and the other is Yonghui. The standard displacement is 28506 tons, the full load displacement is 32850 tons, and the maximum speed is 22 knots. mm main gun..."

Although Su Yi was vague on many issues, Liu Muqing also got a lot of breaking news from Su Yi. On the morning of the second day after the naval battle, Liu Muqing went to the head office of Liuyun Daily at the telegraph office in Xingang City. , sent a telegram.

In the afternoon of that day, Liu Muqing's telegram was placed on the desk of Emperor Li Hong of the Liuyun Empire.

"Prime Minister, what do you think of Su Yi's remarks?" Emperor Li Hong asked Prime Minister Cao Ziliang in a deep voice. This telegram from Liu Muqing was sent by Prime Minister Cao Ziliang to Emperor Li Hong.

"Your Majesty, there are countless large and small islands in the ocean, and many islands in the depths of the ocean have no ownership. Maybe Su Yi really has a shipyard on an island, and it is a world-class shipyard. It is impossible to build two dreadnought battleships with 380mm main guns!"

"Prime Minister, do you think this shipyard will be on an island in the territorial waters of our Liuyun Empire?"

"Your Majesty, the island where this shipyard is located must not be small in size. The eligible islands of our Liuyun Empire are all under the surveillance of the Royal Navy. If what Su Yi said is true, this shipyard should not be in our Liuyun Empire. The territorial waters of the Empire."

"Prime Minister, have the people sent by the Admiralty to Newport City set off?"

"Your Majesty, Earl Tang Guoyi from the Admiralty is planning to go to Xingang City in person this time. Earl Tang Guoyi has not set off yet."

Tang Guoyi is one of the senior counselors of the Navy Department of the Liuyun Empire. In the Navy Department of the Liuyun Empire, the highest official position is the Minister of the Navy, followed by the Vice Minister of the Navy. Under the Vice Minister of the Navy, there are three senior counselors who help The Minister of the Navy and the Deputy Minister of the Navy are in charge of the national naval affairs.

"Let Tang Guoyi test whether Su Yi can dedicate the shipyard and the entire fleet to the Royal Navy. I can reward him with a hereditary earl and give him a county as a fief!"

"I will then convey your majesty's message to Earl Tang Guoyi, and I will also send your majesty's message to Su Yi's father, Baron Su Mingyuan, hoping that Su Yi's father can have some influence on him."

"Tell Su Yi's father that if Su Yi agrees to dedicate the shipyard and the entire fleet to the Royal Navy, I can promote him to a hereditary viscount and give him two more counties as fiefdoms."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Prime Minister, do you see Liuyun Daily's exclusive interview with Su Yi, is it appropriate to publish it?"

"Your Majesty, the fact that the fleet under Su Yi's command sank seven warships of the Skystar Empire has spread all over the world. Presumably, many people in our Liuyun Empire know about it. Why don't we admit it openly? In any case, it is a great victory for our Liuyun Imperial Navy. As for Liuyun Daily’s exclusive interview with Su Yi, I think that some content can be deleted and published.”

On January 3011th, [-] of the Tang Dynasty, the Liuyun Daily, the largest newspaper in the capital of the Liuyun Empire, published the news of the Liuyun Empire's naval victory, and at the same time published an exclusive interview article with Su Yi, which immediately aroused the entire Liuyun Empire. Empire shakes.

In a study in the baron's mansion in Fushan County, Anping County, Hedong Province, Baron Su Mingyuan asked his third son Su Tao in a deep voice: "Do you know that the fourth son owns a shipyard and a fleet?"

Su Tao smiled wryly and said, "Father, the fourth brother has never told me about the shipyard and the fleet, and the fourth brother has been staying in Fushan County before, and has never left Fushan County for 20 years. I don't know how he has A world-class shipyard and a powerful naval fleet."

Baron Su Mingyuan pondered for a while, and then asked again: "Now, the Prime Minister personally sent a telegram to my father, hoping that my father can persuade the fourth brother to dedicate the shipyard and the entire fleet to the Royal Navy. The royal family is willing to reward the old man." The fourth is a hereditary earl, and the fourth is given a county as a fief."

Su Tao immediately said anxiously: "Father, private wealth is sacred and inviolable. This is stipulated in the Liuyun Empire's constitution. The shipyard and fleet in the hands of the fourth brother belong to our Su family's wealth and cannot be dedicated to the royal family! Our Su family has that shipyard, as well as a family fleet with two super dreadnought battleships and two former dreadnought battleships, and we can immediately become one of the top families in the Liuyun Empire!"

Baron Su Mingyuan continued: "If the fourth son can dedicate the shipyard and the entire fleet to the Royal Navy, the emperor can promote me to a hereditary viscount and set aside two more counties as the fiefdoms of our Su family."

Hearing this, Su Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "Father, I still think the value of the shipyard and the fleet is greater, even if a hereditary earl and a hereditary viscount add up, they are far inferior."

Baron Su Mingyuan then sighed and said: "The value of that shipyard and the fleet with two super dreadnought battleships is too great. I'm worried that our Su family will not be able to keep it."

"Father, has fourth brother sent a telegram?"

"That son of a bitch, my father sent him several telegrams, but he didn't reply to any of them!"

"Father, why don't you let me go to Xingang City?"

"Now the land route leading to Xingang City has been cut off by the army of the Skystar Empire, and the sea route is not safe. Let's talk about it later!"
