1825 My New Daming

Chapter 506 Ming Dad Arrives (Please Subscribe, Ask For A Monthly Pass)
On March 1833, 3, a large group of gentlemen and ladies had gathered around Chichester Pier in Portsmouth Admiralty.A red carpet was also laid on the pier, and the navy military band and guard of honor in bright military uniforms were displayed. It was obvious at a glance that there were some distinguished guests who were about to land in England at Portsmouth Port.

Now is a special period, the English Civil War has broken out!Although it has not yet reached the point of making a big move, the prelude to the civil war has already begun.However, from the chaos in London on the 17th to the present, the Royal Navy has always used the sign of "political neutrality" and has not declared its allegiance to any party.The Port of Portsmouth, which is the home port of the Royal Navy, and the neighboring city of Portsmouth were also controlled by the Marine Corps of the Royal Navy when the chaos first started.It is also currently neutral.

In addition, the Plymouth Naval Port in southwest England and the Scapa Flow base off the coast of Scotland are currently under the control of the Royal Navy and are in a neutral state.

But everyone knows that the "political neutrality" of the Royal Navy is just a pretense for sale!Because the Royal Navy has hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers, thousands of large and small warships, gunboats, and transport ships, and dozens of overseas bases.The annual maintenance cost is an astronomical sum of pounds. If the pound remains neutral, who will pay for it?

Also, the full name of the Admiralty of the British Empire is the Department of Naval and Colonial Affairs!

That is to say, the navy and the colonies (excluding India) are the oil and water of naval officers, and it is common for senior officers of the navy to serve as colonial governors or senior officials.If this colony disappeared, the "money opportunities" of naval officers would be cut by more than half.

So if you want to win the support of the Royal Navy, you must be able to support the Royal Navy and keep enough colonies so that the masters of the navy can have a place to fish-the asking price is not low, but it is also worth the money.After all, the Royal Navy has several 10 people, even in the UK, it can pull out 10,000+ armed personnel!
Moreover, the Royal Navy still has the ability to control the English Channel. That is to say, as long as any party in the current civil war receives their support, it can obtain external support.

Therefore, whoever the Royal Navy supports will have a great chance of having the last laugh.

But who will the Royal Navy support?
The whole of Britain, and even the whole of Europe, stared wide-eyed at every move of the British Admiralty who ran from London to Portsmouth.

Today, the Royal Navy, which is "neutral", seems to be about to make a choice!
Chichester Wharf is a wharf controlled by the Royal Navy!Moreover, the military bands, guards of honor placed on the pier, and the officers and soldiers performing security tasks around the pier are also marines sent by the Royal Navy!

Don't know who that person is now?
The gentlemen living in Portsmouth who got the news, as well as the eyeliners sent by the councils of cities belonging to the United Kingdom who were on the sidelines or still chose freedom, all flocked to Chichester It is impossible to get close to the pier, but they can still watch a warship pass through the mouth of Portsmouth from a distance of several hundred meters and appear in sight.

Everyone stretched their necks to see what happened. Some people had already prepared and took out their binoculars. Those who couldn't understand even asked each other.

"What ship is that? It looks like a cruiser."

"That's a cruiser that seems to be the Brave Warrior class of Ming Dynasty!"

"Da Ming's ship? It came so fast!"

"No, no, it doesn't seem to be Da Ming's ship. That blue-crossed flag on a white background doesn't seem to be Da Ming's navy flag."

"Blue cross on a white background? Saint Andrew's flag? A cruiser of the Rakshasa Navy?"

"Who is Rakshasa supporting now?"

"Queen, the Tsar has issued a statement supporting Queen Victoria as the legitimate monarch of the United Kingdom and the Indian Empire!"

"Then the Royal Navy welcomes the cruiser of the Rakshasa Kingdom so grandly, does it mean that they have fallen to Her Majesty the Queen?"

"This...not necessarily, after all, the Raksha Kingdom is now the most powerful country in the West!"

When someone mentioned that "the Raksha country is now number one in the West", the people around suddenly fell silent.

Before this great war, there had always been two recognized No. [-]s in this world.Ming Dynasty is number one in the East, and Great Britain is number one in the West.Although Ming's national power is recognized as stronger than that of Great Britain.But at the same time, the overall strength of the West is stronger than that of the East.Therefore, in the eyes of these white skins, the West still dominates the East, and Great Britain, which leads the West, although its comprehensive national strength is not as good as Ming Dynasty, is actually number one in the world.And Daming himself seems to have always admitted this until the outbreak of the war. When the war broke out, not only did Daying not lead the West to beat up Daming, but he was easily beaten by Daming. Even the number one brand in the West was beaten. Give it up to Rakshasa!

Thinking about it is really sad!
When he was sad, someone suddenly shouted: "Royal guards. Look! The royal guards are protecting a lot of carriages!"

At this moment, the spirits of the big guys got up again, and they all looked towards a road leading to the pier that was closely guarded by the Marine Corps.I saw a group of royal guard cuirassiers wearing bearskin hats galloping neatly on tall horses.

There are now two Royal Guards in the British Empire, one is the Royal Gurkha Guard, which is the personal soldier of Emperor William.The other is the Old Royal Guard, the personal soldiers of Queen Victoria.

And the one wearing the bearskin hat is the old royal guard, that is, Queen Victoria's personal soldiers!

Now the cuirassiers of the old royal guard escorted a group of carriages. Could it be that the person sitting in the carriage was Queen Victoria?
The Queen is coming to Portsmouth Does this mean the Royal Navy has fallen for the Queen?
Just when everyone was wondering, the Rakshasa cruiser on the sea had already fired a salute!

This is the gunfire of the cruiser Aurora. The cruiser Aurora that sailed into Portsmouth Harbor today was the cruiser Aurora, which rushed all the way from Naples.

After five or six days of continuous traveling, the Rakshasa cruiser carrying Zhu Xiyu, king of Ming Lu, finally arrived in England.

And this also means that Ming and Rakshasa, the two most powerful countries in the East and West, will now support Queen Victoria!

"boom boom"

Amidst the salute, the cruiser Aurora had already docked at the pier.And the team of carriages guarded by the old royal guard also stopped beside the red carpet by the pier.The doors of the carriage were opened one by one by the attendants who accompanied the carriage, and all of them were well-dressed beasts, and they were well-dressed dignitaries.Among them is the short, chubby Queen Victoria, the Duke of Wellington, the Prime Minister appointed by Victoria, and the No.1 in uniform in the Royal Navy, Sir Hardy, the First Minister of the Navy.

Seeing these people getting out of the carriage, everyone knew the position of the Royal Navy, so they cheered spontaneously.

"Long live the Queen!"

"Long live the United Kingdom!"

"God bless the queen!"

The cheers reached Queen Victoria's ears, which made her relax a little bit. Years of British emperor training also allowed her to behave very close to the people at this time, frequently waving to the cheering people.
