Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The navy had become France's last hope of survival, for everyone knew that Prussia had no navy at all, and that if the few wrecked ships used for coastal defense could be called the navy, the British Royal Fleet would probably be renamed the Universe Fleet.

The only suspense was whether or not the French would dare to land on the Prussian coastline, or whether or not he would dare to bomb the land of Prussia's wealth, the free city of the hamburger!

These were two important signals. Once France had done it, the result would be either good or bad. The good news would greatly boost the morale of the French military and civilian.

However, there was also a bad side to it. If France really did do that, especially with the bombardment of the free market of the hamburger … This was because the hamburger had been a free trade city since the Middle Ages.

This was a no-war zone recognized by many countries. Although it was not exactly a declaration of neutrality, no one would bomb this free trade zone either.

If France were to commit such a massacre, the nationalism in Prussia would go berserk, and the war would likely go on to the point of no end.

The world is watching the action of the French navy, and even the financial markets of Europe are watching the French navy, anxiously waiting for news of future trends in financial products.

Now the British capitalists were holding Prussia's financial products, and they were waiting for the French navy to fire. As soon as the guns fired, the situation would be set, and all the warehouses would sell with all their might.

He had brought Prussia's financial products to the point where they were beyond redemption!

With his left hand suppressing Prussia, his right hand would be able to quickly make a bottom line on French financial products.

Fang Guan, who was in Amsterdam, had been fidgety these past few days. The fact that the British Capital had gone down to fight for it in advance had caused her to be half-empty, so this amount of capital was not something that Fang Guan could take advantage of.

If he could hold out until the end of the war, it would be impossible to reach the goal of a hundred million gold. This was the main reason why Fang Guan was so worried.

However, as all sorts of small talk flew about in the market, Fang Guan had heard even more rumors about battles at sea, causing her to be unable to sit still any longer.

If there really was a crushing defeat in the naval battle and the British capital was put on the market at full power, then it would not be impossible to reach the 100,000,000 yuan target, even the capital would be taken away!

Did he have to force Fang Guan to sell them all? She definitely wouldn't dare, because Xiao Letian simply didn't give her permission!

There was another deeper reason, and that was the secret letter that Xiang Ying had sent over. This caused Fang Guan to suddenly become embroiled in the internal strife for power.

Xiang Ying could actually come up with a huge sum of three million pounds, what kind of concept was that in the current world? This was one quarter of the Great Qing's annual national treasury's income right now, so Xiang Ying was able to take it out so easily.

What was behind this? Fang Guan didn't even dare to think about this question.

What was even more terrifying was that Xiang Ying actually told him that he still had more opportunities to absorb energy at a low level, and told him to be at ease while waiting … What did that mean? What exactly did Xiang Ying want to do?

A bad premonition surfaced. Even if Fang Guan was brave enough, she wouldn't be able to withstand such a huge pressure, and at this moment, she felt himself falling into a dark alley where he couldn't see anything. But he could feel that there were ghosts lurking in the darkness.

"Xiang Ying, don't you dare do something stupid! Cai Bixia, you have to advise your man, don't make him go crazy! "

Fang Guan had guessed it right, the current Xiang Ying and his group of Rangers members were already completely mad, they actually made a war preparation on the Zhiyuan Warship Army Ship.

On the outer seas of the hamburger, on the pitch-black sea of the Black Goran Bay, the night sky was filled with countless stars while the sea was turbulent. The lighthouse on the distant Black Goran Island was rotating, shining its light on all four directions.

Cai Bixia looked at Xiang Ying in fear. She had never thought that on this night, Xiang Ying would actually gather all of the members of the Zhiyuan Warship s on the deck.

The sea breeze blew strongly, the waves crashing into the iron armour, Xiang Ying's legs seemed to have taken root firmly on the deck!

He looked at everyone on the battleship with his bright eyes. His gaze was so deep that it could see through everyone's heart!

After a quarter of an hour, his loud and clear voice finally sounded, "Warriors of the Zhiyuan Warship! I have some good news today, and also some bad news for you guys. Which one would you like to hear? "

Silence reigned around them as the marines and officers waited in silence.

"Good, you all won't speak, right? Then I'll tell you the good news first! "

"Brothers, according to reliable information, the French Navy Main fleet s have already headed towards the outer seas of the hamburger! "Our intelligence was wrong. This time, the French are very aggressive and have brought out their absolute main force!"

"The flagship Glory, together with her sister ship Vaubon and Cecil, these three Iron-armored battleship s have become the fleet's main fleet force, as well as six armored cruisers with Banshee s and Cosmo s as servants, they are currently charging towards us!"

"Not only that, behind this vanguard fleet, there are also 25 cruisers and frigate s that make up the special task force. The troop carrier s that protect the 30 merchant ships that are modified are following closely behind them!"

"Brothers, I dare not say that France is sending out all of their troops, but all of their most advanced Iron-armored battleship s have been dispatched!"

"May I ask if this is good news?"

With a single sentence, he ignited the fanaticism of the soldiers present. The new Chinese Navy was truly threatening, but when they heard that there was a battle to fight, they did not care at all how strong the enemy was.

More than four hundred soldiers were shouting excitedly, "Fuck you!" Fight to the end! "

Xiang Ying looked at the soldier's cheering and nodded, "Since you've finished speaking of the good news, then I'll have to speak of the bad news …"

"The bad news is... The Führer didn't authorize us to fight, and he even ordered us to conserve our strength and avoid battle passively! That is to say, in the face of the enemy's aggressive attacks, I'm afraid we have to admit defeat … "

"Enough! "Don't say anymore …" Cai Bixia, who was at the side, could no longer listen to what was being said, "Xiang Ying, what are you trying to do? To incite soldiers to disobey orders? It's not like you don't know how important Zhiyuan Warship is to my Chinese Navy. This is the foundation of our navy, the origin point! "

"If something happens to the Zhiyuan Warship, our navy's development will be severely hit, are you going crazy!?"

Xiang Ying shook his head, "I'm not crazy … "All I know is that the fate of the Navy is the Deep Blue Ocean. Even if they die, they shouldn't die in the docks!"

"Sinking the ocean in a bloody battle is the fate of the navy!"

"Are you afraid? Didn't you also yearn to have a fight with the French Fleet earlier? "

"I'm talking about a fight!" Cai Bixia was so anxious that tears were flowing out of his eyes. "If we meet with a battle, we could fight in order to protect ourselves, this doesn't count as a violation of the military order!"

"What you want now is to take the initiative! I will never allow you to go crazy, you want to fight a French Fleet with just a Zhiyuan Warship? Is there something wrong with your head? Are you crazy! "
