Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

"Speed up!" "I don't care what method you use, repair the sail immediately and speed up the departure from the battlefield …" Molière ran from the hold of the ship to the deck, under his absolute command, Sailor climbed up the mast without caring about the danger, staring at the biting cold sea breeze, trying to fix the hole.

"I need you to use every bit of wind, throw away all the useless burdens for me …" Fresh water, food, ballast stones, even the parcels of your dead are thrown into the ocean. Don't even think about dinner, unless we get to the Dakar s, none of us will have anything to eat! "

Behind him, the Holiness Captain kept repeating his orders. However, after Molière asked him to throw away the gunpowder and cannons, the captain was no longer able to follow his orders.

"No, no, no …" Commander, you can't do this, it's a crime for the fleet to lose their weapons! If the enemy attacks, how will we counterattack? The armies of the France had retreated before, but they had never retreated like this. How could they throw their cannons into the ocean? "

"Shut up …" Molière shouted loudly, "For God's sake, can you not make such a noise? I don't have time to talk nonsense with you! Do you know what kind of battleship is coming after us? "That's a terrifying steel monster. You've never seen it before, so you don't know how terrifying it is …"

"He has a maximum speed of 17 knots. He is a pure steam power warship, he doesn't need to care about the wind and wind in the sea. He only needs one shot to sink our super large caliber cannons …"

"We are no match for him, we must retreat! Time is life... No no no, it's more precious than life. Time is the future fate of France's homeland! "

"Now go back to your post! "Remember this, we can die, we can bear the shame, but we must send the latest information back to Paris. This is more precious than my life and glory!"

Spittle sprayed all over the Holiness's face. The soldiers' capabilities made him resist the urge to hit them and choose to spit on his own.

"What are you still standing there for?" All actions, all orders from the commander in chief... Discard the gunpowder and artillery! " After which, he turned around and left in a huff.

Molière was too lazy to talk with him, he only wanted to obey the order. At this time, the sea turned into a rubbish belt as the waves rolled over. There were all kinds of barrels and trash floating everywhere.

The Holiness's load was reduced, and it began to quickly eat. Soon after, it increased its speed, from 11 knots all the way to 13 knots. This was already considered an extremely fast speed among the Sail battleship.

However, the berserk Zhiyuan Warship had now raised the speed of the ship to 18 knots. Standing on the bow of the ship, one could even feel the tremendous vibration the ship's crew was making.

Especially when the Zhiyuan Warship saw the corpses of the Kunshan, all the soldiers exploded into an uproar. Everyone was shouting the slogan of revenge, the entire ship was prepared for an ambush.

At this time, the two battleships had already passed the northernmost tip of the Cape Verde Islands, Sal Island, and were headed southeast towards the famous West African port of Dakar. At their current speed, they would be able to see the Dakar's lighthouse by midnight on the same day.

The Holiness finally saw the terrifying battleship, and the lookout hand stood on top of the tall observatory and shouted, "Northwest part has discovered the steam fumes! "We've discovered an azure blue ship …"

"Dammit, they really did catch up. How could they be so fast?" Molière punched on the wooden frame, his joints dripping with blood.

At this point, people crowded onto the poop and used binoculars to examine the mysterious steel monster. When the thick cannon barrel and the ferocious looking Golden Dragon Statue entered their eyes, everyone gasped in shock.

"Is this a Chinese battleship? "How could it be Chinese..."

"Since when did Prussia have so much industrial power? If they had such powerful battleships, how could they have been trapped by us in Dover? "

Unfortunately, no matter how loud the voices of doubt were, the reality in front of them was unquestionable. Everyone's heart was filled with mixed feelings.

In the eyes of the Europeans of this era, the old image of China as a country of gold had been shattered in the midst of war. The burning of the Emperor of China and the fall of the capital made the Europeans look down on this people with utter contempt.

Thousands of years of uplifting had turned into a sneer of contempt in just a few decades. China had long been synonymous with ignorance, only slightly better than black Africans.

But today, these barbaric and backward yellow monkeys could actually drive a super science fictional Steel battleship that did not even exist in Europe. The pressure made the French navy unable to lift its head, and this feeling was like a giant rock blocking the hearts of everyone present.

But no one dared to retort. Looking at the empty cannon position, people realized that they were sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

"What are you all standing there in a daze for …" Tie the Chinese and Prussian in the hold cell to the mast! I want to see if they dare to fire their cannons! " The ferocious looking Molière had long forgotten about the dignity of a Knight, he only had one thought now and that was to live on.

Sun Chujian and the other 30 soldiers were all tied to the Holiness's mast, while the crazy Molière roared at the Zhiyuan Warship.

"Fire!" If you have the guts, then open fire … Hahaha, I don't dare anymore! You Chinese will never be strong. You have a woman's heart, so you are doomed to fail. The weak are not worthy to live in this world! "Hahaha …"

The Zhiyuan Warship had already seen this, all of their eyes were blazing with anger, Xiang Ying gripped the telescope with both of his hands, even his knuckles were white.

"Shameless!" Despicable! You bunch of bastards, you have touched our bottom line again and again … Don't think we won't go crazy, don't force me... Don't force me! "

Cai Bixia said with a trembling voice, "Sun Chujian is still alive... He did not die, the Kunshan still had survivors! We have to save them! We have to save them … "

"NO!" You're wrong... Sun Chujian has already sacrificed himself, from the moment he sent the signal to us, he had already chosen to die, I will not let down his hard work! "

"Kindness is never the epitaph of kindness! A despicable person will never be a despicable person's permit! " Xiang Ying used all of his strength to shout, "Head Cannon, get ready! Fire at the enemy! Sending off our brothers with the sound of cannons! "

At that moment, the eyes of everyone on the Zhiyuan Warship were brimming with tears!

In the face of the biting cold sea breeze, Sun Chujian who was covered in blood was laughing, he was laughing out loud, "Hahaha … Xiang Ying! Don't disappoint me, my mission has already been completed. The road ahead is the path you should take … "Don't let my sacrifice be meaningless!"

"Fire!" Fire at me... Don't let the sacrificed brothers die senselessly! "

Molière's face turned ashen at the shouts of the Chinese. "Crazy, they're all madmen!"
