C1798 Strategy for the Borneo (1/2)
The Zhiyuan Warship s were the flagship, the other seven were the troop carrier s and the supply ships. Other than the eight battleships, there was also another pure white, long sail scissor boat.
The speed of a warship was as different as the sky and the earth compared to an expedition ship. While the Adventurer King had only managed to raise half the sail, the speed of a full sail on this side was almost unstoppable.
The entire South China Sea had become the King Adventurer's amusement park. The highly paid captains and sailors were the most experienced. They spent the shortest amount of time on the King Adventurer, and at this moment, they were doing all kinds of sailing on the ocean.
The eight battleships were lined up in a row on the ocean floor, cutting through the water while the Adventurer King was shuttling back and forth in a line, using all sorts of extreme movements to demonstrate the extraordinary performance of this ship.
He wasn't willing to stay on the Zhiyuan Warship with his master. On top of that, when he saw Xiang Ying, he was also angry at the fact that there were many novel things on the Expedition Ship of King Shang Tai, so the two of them boarded the Adventure King to play.
Zai Chun was not present at the meeting, but, Luo Huo, Xiang Ying and the other high-ranked officers were in Xiao Letian's single cabin, smoking a thick cigar table with a huge map placed inside.
It was worth mentioning that Wang Huaiyuan had accompanied him on this trip to Europe. Of course, there was also Pierre and the other elites who had come from Europe.
In the future, the main focus of Chinese intelligence would be on Europe. How could Wang Huaiyuan, the great spy leader, not personally go and inspect the place.
The South Sea was filled with merchant ships from all over Asia and Europe. The road to trade between the East and West had been bustling since the ancient times. When everyone saw the tall and majestic bridge of the Zhiyuan Warship and the giant cannon, all the Chinese merchants were stirred up.
Along the way, the sound of the horn could be heard. The captain of the ship knelt on the deck and kowtowed as he kowtowed, ”Long live the leader …” Alien Battles... Attack the old setae when we reach Europa … ”
The news of the War of the Far East's victory had already spread throughout the world. All of the Chinese people in Nan Yang had their backs straight as a plate of steel, and all of their social status was rapidly expanded because of this battle.
Singapore, Da Ma, Xi Shui … The Chinese people everywhere had organized half a month of celebration events and 24 hours of continuous celebration. None of the Western colonists dared to fart, and even the foreign military police had to be careful to maintain order in order to prevent conflicts between natives and Chinese.
War was indeed the most exciting weapon. In ten thousand words, it was better to fight a battle abroad than to fear the might of the barbarians. This was the common disease of all barbarians.
At that moment, no one in East Asia dared to challenge Xiao Letian's power and influence. At that moment, even the British merchant ships in the Southern Sea had voluntarily stepped aside to make way for them and hoot their horns to pay their respects to the fleet.
”Look, that's the legendary Zhiyuan Warship …” The Thames had already said that this year, Qing Guo's emperor and the leader of the Chinese were going to visit Europe … God, we were so lucky to meet Xiao Letian's fleet! ”
Countless European gentlemen and ladies waving their hats to the fleet on deck!
Wang Huaiyuan leaned on the porthole and sighed: ”The people's hearts are useful! The people's hearts can be used... I just received a telegram from the spy ship, the Belait's Chinese Guard Army has already gathered 60,000 people … ”
”The King of Earth of the Borneo has continuously sent messages begging for forgiveness. They are willing to offer up the golden and silver beauties and admit that they are the Subordinate States of the Chinese race. They wish to let them go …”
”In one more day, we will arrive at Borneo. At this moment, the Chinese in Belait are all excited. They said that they would launch an offensive when the Head of the Guards arrived, overthrow all of the overlords in the northern part of Borneo, and establish an autonomous region that would belong to the Chinese race … ”
”Of course, what they want the most is to join the Chinese. Fellow leader, what do you think …”
