The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

Chapter 462 Revenge of the Japanese Navy

Once upon a time, when Minister He spoke to reporters and domestic and foreign dignitaries, he was almost always earnest or heartbroken. His brows were never stretched out, and the blood in his cavity was always cold and about to freeze. In his place, there is no hope in sight!Neither the navy nor the country can see it!

But today, during the severe winter on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, he felt hot all over his body, and his blood was boiling!A warm feeling from the pubic region flowed all over the body, as if there was a steel bar on the back, standing upright, looking from the high rostrum, there was a feeling of "seeing all the mountains at a glance" Proud and refreshing!

Where did these radically different changes come from?The giant ship cannon behind you!

The complex and deep faces of the representatives of various countries are close at hand, Chen Shaokuan's heart is bright, and he has a smile on his face when he speaks, and his hearty voice spreads through the high-power speakers of the battleship: "Welcome everyone to take the time to join the task force two ships The first sea trial ceremony of the new ship! On behalf of the Admiralty, the Task Force and the National Navy, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the guests!"

"Today is a great day for the Chinese Navy! After 40 years of humiliation in the Sino-Japanese War, we have once again possessed a world-class main warship, which represents a new milestone for China's national defense force and represents the unyielding Chinese people's pursuit of independence, independence and peace. With a strong belief in maintaining peaceful reunification, as a descendant of the Sino-Japanese War martyrs, Shaokuan is deeply excited and more confident, and will do his best to join hands with thousands of comrades to create a better future...!"

Almost all of them are nonsensical big talk and scene talk. () Everyone can hear calluses with their ears.But the point is that Chen Shaokuan's attitude is inseparable from his "self-reliance" and "self-improvement"!In the past, it was seldom said so. To put it in a more intense word, that is, the affairs of the country.We have to decide for ourselves!

Envoys from various countries basically think so.Be obedient and listen to the sound, they have already determined that the people of the country are going to demonstrate this time.Park the warship on the pier and look at it casually, and don't take the important weapons of the country seriously, obviously you have something to rely on!

Chen Shaokuan had just finished speaking.Xu Gesen couldn't wait to ask: "My Excellency Minister Chen, does the commissioning of the two battleships today mean that the country has begun to seek an expansionist attitude from now on? Does such a public announcement mean it is trying to provoke competition with the major traditional naval powers?"

It can be seen how serious the matter is by making the Englishman, who has always been pretentious and reserved, ask questions so urgently. Chen Shaokuan smiled calmly, and that gesture immediately caused a flash of light to burst out on the scene, and a powerful force surged out of his bones. Confidence, let a large number of pure-hearted women on the scene dump a large number on the spot!A single old handsome guy full of masculinity.He is much more attractive than the so-called handsome man of the Republic of China like Wang Jingwei!

The people with insight in the country who reacted very quickly couldn't help cheering. Chen Shaokuan raised his hand and pressed it lightly, and said loudly: "The Chinese navy has been silent for too long, and the aspirations of the Chinese people need to be encouraged. As soldiers, we are always eager to be strong. , and our first priority is to maintain the safety of the country's thousands of miles of sea and territory, and the country's land is not infringed! The country has passed down civilization for thousands of years, and every time it becomes strong, it does not invade and expand. We provide more sharing and peace of civilization As for how the nations will react, it is up to us to decide where the autonomy lies.”

Old slick!Xu Gesen's confidantes could not stop slandering Chen Shaokuan, a rare old-fashioned person in the Republic of China.Is it provocative?We don't say it directly, you judge for yourself!

Shigeru Kawagoe lowered his head slightly, his eyes flickered with coldness, and whispered some instructions to the people next to him. Immediately, a military attache stationed in China jumped up and asked with a bad stammer: "Excuse me, Minister Chen. At the critical moment of the Japanese peace talks, you openly launched a provocation against the Japanese Empire with such actions, which will definitely cause serious damage. Does it mean that the national government wants to confront Japan to the end? If you refuse to accept the mediation of the League of Nations, you must Start a war!"

Chen Shaokuan raised his chin, glanced at them from the corner of his eyes, and said lightly: "Hasn't Japan already withdrawn from the League of Nations? When did you start to pay attention to the attitude of the League of Nations? As far as I know, it was during the so-called peace talks." , you have transported at least one division of heavy weapons and equipment to the northeast of our country, is this also an effort for peace?"

Before the red-faced Ri himself retorted, Chen Shaokuan raised his head and looked around the audience, and said sonorously: "Peace cannot be achieved through negotiation alone. The country needs a strong military force to maintain its independence. This is non-negotiable."

A strong statement!

Envoys from various countries and representatives from all walks of life took a deep breath. This Minister Chen is so tough, he really has a cannon under his ass, full of anger!These words are not only for Japan itself, but also for the British and French powers. The people of the country must be self-reliant and self-improving, and you should not be arrogant!Well, that's what it means!

Very unfriendly!The atmosphere at the scene immediately became more subtle and weird. All kinds of eyes looked at Chen Shaokuan and the giant ship behind him with complicated eyes, and they suddenly realized why they did this.In front of the majestic giant ship cannon, Chen Shaokuan seemed to have gathered all the deterrent power of the tens of thousands of tons of steel monsters, coming from the inside out with awe-inspiring majesty, overwhelming, unstoppable!

The German ambassador Tautman sighed lonely in the VIP area, and said to the assistant next to him: "All the efforts of the Japanese peace talks have been in vain! The war will inevitably break out, and the speed will be very fast. Inform Your Excellency the Head of State, we will do our best .”

Japan's retreat once made Taudman think that he had seen the dawn of peace, and the country, which was full of internal strife and was waiting to be rebuilt, also needed a relatively long peace buffer period to recuperate. Everything was ideal, but Chen Shaokuan's speech and the information in his words made him suddenly understand that all the performances in the past few months were nothing but smoke bombs!

Be it Japan or China, they don't believe in any peace talks for a long time. Both sides have been working overtime to prepare for the next war, and neither is willing to back down!These two countries, regardless of whether they are dead or alive, will not give up!

This kind of news, presumably many people in the country would like to see it. They think that Japan is only strong enough, and the country’s political power is gradually falling to the United States. It's better to let them fight with Japan and lose both sides, and Germany will make a lot of war fortune.Now, they have succeeded.

Japanese Ambassador Shigeru Kawagoe couldn't hold back his anger, and said stiffly: "Minister Chen must understand that there is a limit to the patience of the Great Japanese Empire! We will regard your attitude as extremely unfriendly, and the resulting Any consequences will be borne by you!"

Chen Shaokuan glanced at him coldly, and said proudly: "The Chinese people have never been afraid of the atrocities imposed on us. Since ancient times, Huaming has never been cut off by barbaric aggression! Our giant ships are waiting for this! Designed by greedy and shameless people! In addition, I want to announce a news, in view of the success of the new warships, our country will start to design and build a new level of battleships, and strive to achieve the historical strength of the Chinese navy with the world's largest total tonnage!"

Wow!As if the crowd had dropped a bomb, the whole scene was in chaos!The faces of representatives from various countries are colorful, not to mention ugly!

First of all, Ri himself. The two battleships that appeared suddenly have made them unable to hold back. The first batch of large ships started at home have not yet launched, and the eight ships currently in service are at least 20 years old. Know how effective combat is.This group of guys actually want to start building a new class of battleships. How big and how many will they build? !

And according to their habits, if they say they are starting to design, they probably already started work? !

The second is the British. Military competition directly involves comprehensive national strength. A battleship costs at least tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars. How much is the country's gross national product?Can they hold up?Not counting this, as long as China starts building ships, Japan will inevitably break the naval agreement, and the United States will tear up the treaty openly, Germany will not be left behind, France, Italy and the United Kingdom... What should I do? If the sun does not lose the face of the empire, don't you want it!

Xu Gesen didn't care about his dignity, and hurriedly shouted: "Minister Chen! Do you know how serious consequences such a statement will cause? The whole world will be in a huge crisis because of this, can the country afford it?!"

Chen Shaokuan waved his hand calmly: "I believe that the leading countries must be able to deal with all things rationally. In this regard, the British Empire is much more familiar than China, which is beyond my guess. However, I emphasize again that China's Military construction is for peace and self-improvement, we have no intention of provoking military competition, as a former world power, it is reasonable for us to demand the proper military level?"

Xu Gesen was at a loss for words.It is said that in the late Qing Dynasty more than 40 years ago, the total amount of the Chinese navy was the largest in Asia and the largest in the world.

But the question is, today is different from the past, can it be compared with now?In terms of the total tonnage of battleships, it ranks first in the world, even if it is on par with Italy, at 17 tons.China currently has three new and old battleships with 5 tons, which is only half; don't forget, the Chinese navy was the largest in Asia 3 years ago. Even if the standard is 9 tons, at least seven ships must be built!

At this time, what does it mean for the Chinese to rebuild seven powerful new battleships? !And it is foreseeable that they can't just produce guys with the same tonnage. People in the country who are not restricted by the treaty can play casually. Next time, who knows whether it will be a giant of [-] tons or [-] tons!

Japan will definitely go crazy, the United States will follow up in order to defend Japan, and the United Kingdom must follow up in order to ensure balance. The economy that has just recovered will be in trouble! (To be continued..)
