C874 Ghostly lone wolf of the Atlantic Ocean (1/2)
The torrential downpour was swept up by the ocean breeze, turning it into whips. People watched the white waves whizzing on the bodies of the sailors.
None of them wore raincoats, so all the military officers and soldiers took off their uniforms. Xiang Ying, Lin Zhen and the others took the lead to take off the waterproof cover on the main cannons.
”Take off your military uniform …” Everyone took off their uniforms! We can't let anyone guess who we are... ”Jin Sanshun, immediately cover the head of the ship with a cloth.”
”lookout hand... ”I'll give you ten minutes to determine the nationality of the other party's ship!”
”Shipbuilding units increase firepower... Boiler Pressure... Ammunition teams prepare artillery shells … ”
Xiang Ying and the others ran around the deck bare-chested as they ordered to break the rain curtain. The Zhiyuan Warship and the scissor boat behind had already left the queue, just like how the ancient two armies used to ride thousands of soldiers before the battle, charging out of the battle formation straight towards their distant target.
Kevin was about to go crazy, he chased after Xiang Ying and roared loudly, ”No … It can't be like this, our mission is to return safely, not to start a war! ”You are leading a reckless life …”
”The other party is just a merchant ship. Are you trying to kill the commoners?” This is too immoral! ”
Xiang Ying completely ignored Kevin's advice: ”I am the Captain, I am the commander here. Didn't lookout hand say it just now? That's our enemy! Back then, they were the ones who relied on the battleship's sharpness to fight against the Ryukyu!
”This is revenge! ”This is called the Feng Shui Wheel …”
Kevin wiped the rain off his face: ”Enough, you madman …” lookout hand only said that it was possible, he was not sure … Even if it's confirmed, you can't open fire! Didn't the Prime Minister Xiao sign a truce with France? How can you break the agreement at will? ”
Lin Zhen was so annoyed by Kyle that he ignored him. He grabbed Kevin's arm and roared, ”Shut up, you're just a technician, don't get involved in politics and battles, alright? ”Recording all the cannon data is what you should do...”
”You say we are immoral? Was there any morality in the English and French when it burned down Beijing? Were there any morals when the French bombarded the bully? Isn't it the French who do things like not declare war and deceive the army into action? ”
”We're just doing what we're doing... War is the depletion of the nation's strength. Today, after sinking two of their ships, we have exhausted a little of the enemy's strength … Right now, we are just the lone wolf ghosts on the sea. Your Prussian should learn from them, sooner or later, you will follow along the same path as us! ”
”You are willing to let the English and French keep the Prussian navy off the coast, but we Chinese are unwilling …”
Lightning suddenly flashed in the sky, and an earth-shaking thunder rumbled on the ocean. lookout hand shouted crazily, ”I saw it! I see the French flag! Grandmother, it's really a French boat... And it even has the crest of the imperial family! ”
”This is too great, this is Napoleon III's boat, at least it belongs to the palace … Brothers, get ready for battle! ”
Kevin was pushed away, his back colliding with an iron plate, rain was flowing down his hair, everything was in a daze. These Eastern young lad were really bold, completely overturning his impression of the Asian.
Smart, tough, and resolute. There was no need to talk about this. When the time came, they had to be bold. This group of people had a crazy thirst for opportunities. Not only that, but they also had an encouraging energy. When the officers ran naked into the torrential rain, the Prussian soldiers went crazy.
