C555 Deadly kill of the new army (1/2)

The natural environment of the Qing Dynasty had not been destroyed, and the weak productivity could not support the construction of all kinds of dams and reservoirs. Therefore, the rivers on the Chinese mainland still maintained their original appearance at this time, wide and full of water.

In Xiao Letian's memory, Hai He had already lost most of his uses for a long time in the future.

The water was neither wide nor deep, and the industrial pollution caused the fish stocks to drop by a lot. Even irrigating the farmlands was difficult to accomplish, and by that time, there were no longer any cargo ships on the sea.

However, in this era, Hai He was still the most important water transportation channel in North China. In the past, when the British and French combined forces attacked the Beijing, the battleships could go along Hai He through the Da Gu Kou and head straight to Tianjin.

Shattered Waves is just a light cruiser, sailing in the sea was not a problem at all. As long as there is a skilled water guide, even at night there will not be any danger.

The Shattered Waves began to move forward against the flow of the water, the half opened sail controlled the speed of the boat, and when the Shattered Waves officially entered into the sea and approached the north side of the cannon, the two sides of the sea suddenly burst into cheers.

”It's the Prime Minister's flagship …” is the Prime Minister's Shattered Waves … The prime minister is bringing the cannon ship into the sea... ”Long live!” The Green Battalion s at the Da Gu Kou's cannon emplacement were jumping and roaring at the edge of the mound. This blood battle had washed away all their imprints from the past, and they were now a part of the new army.

Xiao Hexin also stood in the crowd and waved towards the battleships on the sea river. He was so excited that his eyes filled with tears, ”Prime minister, our prime minister... Today, we are riding on a captured foreign warship, and tomorrow, we will have our own fire ships and Steel battleship! ”

”Where's the pilot? Hurry up and board the ship …” There were some veterans in the Da Gu Kou that were used to leading water, and were extremely familiar with the waters of this part of the sea. Upon hearing their commanding officer's order, three to four people ran towards the river, paddling their way over.

”Lighting... Light all the kerosene lamps on the warship, as well as the torches, for the Prime Minister to see … ”This is a historic moment, a memorable moment …”

It was the European freelance writer who was carrying a camera, Lei Ao. This fellow had also followed Xiao Letian to East Asia, and he had even faintly become the Minister of Propaganda beside Xiao Letian.

Yes, that's right, this position did not even exist in European countries. As for the specific era where this position was held, even Xiao Letian did not know.

But there is a famous propaganda minister in human history, and that is the Nazi propaganda minister, Goebbels, whose famous saying, 'A thousand times a lie is the truth,' I think everyone will remember it.

Lei Ao would not let go of any chance to spread the news about Xiao Letian. He brought his battleship to bombard the enemy's formation, bringing all his troops into the Tanggu.

With Xiao Letian at the center, countless kerosene lamps were hung on the rope and even placed on the ground. The bright lights illuminated Xiao Letian's tall and straight figure with incomparable importance.

The three lackeys who had just climbed onto the deck saw Xiao Letian in the light wearing his western military uniform and thought that he was as inviolable as a god. Their legs went soft and they all kneeled down.

”Greetings, Prime Minister … Greetings to the Lord! ”

Almost at the same time, on the north shore of the river, which was also the main city that was densely packed with people, countless windows suddenly lit up, followed by countless gates opening. Countless commoners ran out from their hiding spots and ran towards the shore.

At that moment, his wails shook the heavens!

”Prime Minister!” You're finally back...

”Wuwuwu …” ”If I say the Prime Minister isn't dead, then I'll say that he isn't dead. You won't believe it, you won't believe it …”

The Tanggu was a city without city walls. Although business was developed, there was still a lack of protection. This time, Maylor's army had charged over, and a portion of the citizens had escaped into the special region, while a portion of them chose to guard the property at home.

After changing the Tanggu into Xiao Letian, the citizens had become richer and richer, working hard, you could earn money, investing in the stocks, and growing in a place where you can earn more by renting houses and land. In this past year, Tanggu was just like a small northern city.

Every household had more than enough money, how could they bear to give it to the bandits for nothing? They brought a thread of luck with them as they stayed in an unguarded city.

In these few days of fighting, they had witnessed the happenings of the surrounding villages. Everyone was afraid that Maylor would come and rob the city.

But fortunately, the city was close to the special region, so Maylor was afraid that his own army would fall into a complicated street battle. However, the big guy understood that he was already a piece of meat on the chopping board. As long as Maylor won, it would be the end of Tanggu City.

Tonight was the most despairing of moments. The French and Maylor had joined forces, and their meticulous sneak attack plans had been set up one after another. The Da Gu Kou's flames and the sound of the cannons on the sea surface had scared the citizens mad.

At that time, some people had even started to pour oil on their own rooms, they were even prepared to burn themselves to death. They were very clear on what kind of things the Eight Flags Soldier was, if they landed in their hands, they would be tortured to death.
