Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

No matter how many times you had seen Paris on the Military Maps or in the intelligence photos, you had never seen such shock with your own eyes!

Do not think that you have lived in Paris for a long time, but when you have not looked down upon the city from the sky, you will not be able to truly appreciate its grandeur!

Over two million people crowded into the planned city. The Seine River slowly flowed through the beautiful city, separating it into the left and right sides!

The rows of streets were filled with small buildings of varying heights. The wide streets were bustling with pedestrians and traffic!

Was that the clock tower of Notre Dame on the far island of Siddai?

Is the distant Louvre s the Arc de Triomphe that Napoleon passed through?

Bismark and Xiao Letian were already shocked by the Paris in front of them. No matter whether they are enemies or not, you cannot deny the unique charm that the city in front of them is emitting.

Paris is Paris, no need to say much, no need to say much! This is a magic city that you will never forget for the rest of your life!

What surprised them even more was that this artistic capital was shrouded in layers of killing intent!

Needless to say, the tall and imposing city wall was even more shocking when it came to the defenses and giant Prism Castle s!

At this moment, Bismark finally understood why Xiao Letian always requested for a decisive battle outside the city instead of forcefully attacking the city. Trochu was simply a country bumpkin.

This was a giant hedgehog with all its spikes erected. Two million pairs of hateful eyes growing from the back of the trench would tear all the invaders apart!

What was even more frightening was the city's street fighting fortifications with the Montmartre plateau at their core. The workers in Paris had armed all the streets.

The statues that had the image of the Napoleon family carved on them had their heads chopped off and were pushed down to the ground.

Perhaps it was the war with the Chinese that had provoked all the workers on the left, who were now engaged in street warfare with tenfold enthusiasm.

All the streets were filled with armed fortifications, and sandbags were the most consumed material at the moment. Even the windows of buildings along the street were piled with sandbags. When the time came, the gunmen would be able to easily shoot down.

The streets were filled with Self Guard troops who were training while on the move. Since they did not have a ready military camp to use, they requisitioned almost all of the leisure squares and spacious streets. Many children around eighteen or nineteen years old received simple military training here.

Everyone on the airship saw all of this and were stunned. Even the intelligence officer who was carrying the camera and the shorthand book forgot about the work he was doing.

"Don't be a fool, gentlemen... Start Your Work... "Draw a map of Paris in the shortest time possible. Let's see if there are any gaps that we can attack …"

Only then did people wake up from their stupor. The camera on the tripod began to take the scenery and press the shutter button. The pencil sketched on the white paper began to rustle, and the map of Paris began to improve bit by bit.

The sudden appearance of a huge airship attracted the attention of the Parisian garrison. Countless soldiers rushed out from their hiding spots, holding all sorts of weapons and telescopes as they gestured at the sky.

Looking down from a height of thirty meters above the ground was the territory of the enemy. You could still hear some angry curses coming from the wind, but you couldn't hear them clearly.

Very quickly, French soldiers started to raise his gun and shoot. Bullets flew up and a few of them hit the armor of the suspension chamber, making crisp sounds.

"Increased pressure... Fifty meters in the air … "Keep Safe Distance..."

Duke Qi Bolin didn't dare to let these two big shots take the risk. He clearly knew that thirty meters was enough to protect himself, but he still continued to raise his height just in case.

The initial anger of the Parisians quickly turned to panic, and when they realized that all their weapons were useless against this giant, they were all terrified.

There were even people who were afraid that this huge airship would bring countless soldiers to land in the city!

saw with his own eyes how the Paris citizens fled in all directions, as if someone would throw a bomb at them in the next second.

Bismark let out a long sigh, "If I had thirty of these airships in my hands, I could modify a batch of bombs and bombard this city non-stop throughout the night … There is no need for war to be so complicated! "

"Impossible!" Xiao Letian shook his head. "The airship is seriously affected by the weather, if the weather is slightly bad, it won't be able to rise into the sky."

"The limitations of battle are too great... "Also, this airship is too expensive. Just one airship alone would cost me almost 4 million pounds. Even if it were to be sold in the future, it would probably cost around 3 million …"

"With so much money, can't we make Iron-armored Ship s?"

"More importantly... "There are many ways to restrain the airship, and all of them are cheap …" Xiao Letian pointed to some Steel plant s and machinery factories on the east side of Paris … "

"With Paris' industrial prowess, it's very easy to make weapons against airships … To build a few cannons with small caliber by himself, and to modify the cannons so that the angle between the cannon and the cannon can be increased … "

"This is a flak gun that can easily fight against airships..." "It won't cost us much, but it can easily break through our defenses. The key is that we're too slow, so we can't dodge it …"

Hearing Xiao Letian's words, Bismark's hot heart cooled down yet again, "Since you can already see the inadequacy of it, why are you still investing so much? "Too wasteful …"

"You can't put it that way... My purpose of purchasing the patent of Duke Qi Bolin's airship is to be used in special operations. It is not of much use to European airships, but it is a great treasure in Asia! "

"With the industry in Asia, they can create anti-aircraft guns that will not restrain me. My airship will become an invincible existence... An occasional surprise attack or something would definitely be useful! "

"That's why Mr. Qi Bolin, you have the guts to research on it. I will purchase a new patent for you …"

Qi Bolin's airship started to rotate clockwise along the walls of Paris. Everywhere it went, the defending armies of Paris panicked, while the Prussian army in the distance cheered and cheered.

The more Bismark looked at it, the more anxious he became. He finally knew how difficult it was to fight in Paris, if he were to forcefully attack it, he would have to pay at least seventy to eighty thousand casualties.

"Tomorrow, you can go to Cassel … Talk to Napoleon III properly, as long as he cooperates with us and activates the royal power within us … "

"I will give him his freedom... By the way, why don't you go and meet this old enemy of yours... "I know you've been biting the bullet to get your revenge. I'll give you a chance to slap yourself in the face …"

"Pass my orders... All siege troops are strictly forbidden to carry out projects, so we must build permanent structures and surround the entire city! "
