C4008 (2/2)
It was already midnight, yet he refused to rest and continued writing. Everything he met today, the main points he thought of and all the questions in his mind were recorded. He was so busy that he only rested a little at three o'clock!
Just as Simpson and Liu Peiqi were leaving for the Grand Canal on a boat, three small steam gunboats that had a capacity of over 500 tons followed the Huangpu River into the Yangtze River's waterway. All the Merchant ships s on the way gave way!
Even the UK naval vessel s who normally flaunted their strength, had to urgently give way to the three gunboats that were flying the flag of the Chinese!
These three gunboats were the newly launched Battleship s of the Chinese's shipyard s. Currently, the Chinese's shipbuilding industry could already produce a thousand tons of Steel hull!
The keel, the deck, the side of the ship, and the transmission device … Only the steam engine and linear Artillery still relied on the Germany's imports!
The three gunboats were all self-made by the Chinese, but they had already reached seventy percent of their own capacity. Not only was this a miracle in the Asia, but in the rest of the world, except for Europe and the United States, the three gunboats were all the most advanced Technology s!
This kind of small-tonnage gunboat was obviously considered a mosquito ship on the sea s, but in the rivers of Yangtze River, it was an existence that was like an overlord. It's speed was fast, its armor was sturdy, and its firepower was strong … Furthermore, the ship can carry quite a number of Army s!
The main ship that the Chinese would control the water in the Great Qing Kingdom would be this kind of 'Yangtze River' series!
But today, the respect that the fleet on the river respected the cannons was not only out of respect for the Chinese's three flags, but also because the current strongest political figure on the three cannons, the Führer Xiao Letian!
Xiao Letian had just returned from Borneo, so when Zero internal combustion engine didn't have any problems operating for 48 hours, Head of State couldn't stay any longer. After telling him a few things, he immediately got on the boat and headed north.
The Fortress Plan had finally reached the point where the land would be handed over, and the plan that he had painstakingly carried out for so many years had finally come to the breaking point. He couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart anymore … Of course, he was also homesick, Fu Hui, tiger chick and his son were all worried about him!
They had just taken the boat all the way to that Ba, when they saw that familiar figure on top of the wharf.
”Be careful... Don't fall into the sea! ”Be careful...” Xiao Letian anxiously shouted!
Without care for his status, Xiao Letian didn't wait for the boat to get on the wharf before he threw a bundle of rope ladders down, and once he flipped over, he climbed down the rope ladders.
”Protect the Head of State …” With a cry of surprise, the two figures leapt over the railing like two swallows. One of their hands lightly hooked onto the rope ladder.
The two Qing Gong cultivators dropped down the rope ladders and followed the rhythm of the Head of State down the ladders, steadily escorting Xiao Letian to the ladders.
When they were only a meter or so away from the bridge, the rope ladder and the bridge were still more than three meters wide!
The two guards exchanged a look and exerted force at the same time. They kicked the boat's hull, causing the rope ladder to swing up!
”Protect the Head of State!” The two of them threw away the rope ladder at the same time, and supported Xiao Letian's arm from left and right, gently landing on the dock, steadily and steadily!
At this time, the tiger chick also rushed over, she did not slow down and rushed into Xiao Letian's embrace like a bird.
”Ai ai ai..... He was about to fall into the sea! Ouch... tiger chick, why did you bite me … ”
