Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty
C878 Private fleet
The young people were indeed spirited, maybe Xiao Letian had this plan in mind when he first pointed it out to the young people.
Xiang Ying, Lin Zhen, Jin Sanshun, and the others were only twenty-two or three years old on average. This age group had accumulated a certain amount of knowledge and experience, and was also a stage that was extremely destructive to the world.
If there was a group of old people suppressing them from above, it would still be alright. However, an Steel Armoured Patrol Ship like the Zhiyuan Palace was a completely new tool for war. Even if Xiao Letian wanted to find them a few ancestors, he wouldn't be able to find anything!
It was very obvious that this first voyage across half of the Earth had already determined the position of these young masters in the Iron-armored Ship era. This was because all of their experience was accumulated by them, and even some unconscious tactics of theirs, that they only wanted to vent their hatred on, would be revered as a classic by others in the future.
Lin Zhen's suggestion was exactly what everyone was thinking. The fertile Atlantic Ocean was filled with fat sheep, and Zhiyuan Warship could become a deep sea lone wolf.
As soon as they thought of it, they would do it. The Atlantic map placed on the table by the buzzing heads of the group had already turned into a delicious cake.
"We have five scissor boat and we even brought many national flags. We can use these scissor boat as bait to lure the pirates of the Atlantic to chase us … Knowing that our Zhiyuan Warship s have blown them to smithereens! "
"No, we cannot waste it!" Do you know how rich the Caribbean pirates are? This bunch of grandsons love to collect gold the most, they have gold on their hands! "
"That's right, not only can scissor boat be used as bait, we can also use them as scouting ships. The fleet is formed from the north to the south, and they are arranged in a large human shape. The distance between the ships is controlled within five kilometers, and our Zhiyuan Warship is hidden in the center of the two wings …"
"So that those enemy nations' merchant ships can only see our scissor boat first before they discover it … Furthermore, we have brought the most expensive anthracite this time. It would be very difficult for the enemy to find us … "
"Right, right..." "Although we can no longer distinguish the flags' language within five kilometers, we still have the signal of the flames. We can use the flames to transmit information …"
A group of aggressive young people quickly came up with a set of battle plans. A ghost of an Atlantic lone wolf was covering the five little sheep under the cover as they carried out a private raids that shocked the world at the end of the 19th century.
Once the young Chinese officer reached an agreement, the next step was to communicate with the Prussian sailors. Although these soldiers were nominally under their command, Xiang Ying and the others knew that these soldiers were just a bunch of friends.
When Xiang Ying and the others discussed with the rest of the officers, they did not expect this group of sailors to be even more fanatical than them.
"What happened in Cape Verde is a disgrace to Prussia all over Europe. There must be a war between France and Prussia! Since we can now collect interest on the ocean ahead of time, we certainly won't back down … "" No, no... Get rid of these Frenchmen! Not even those Englishmen! "Plunder, plunder them!"
The Prussian Nation had always loved to fight, and this time, they were going to deal with their century-old enmity, France. They did not even need to fight to mobilize these soldiers and had already started to prepare for battle.
When Kevin came out from his cabin room wanting to eat something, he was shocked to discover that the entire fleet had completed their formations. Under the morning sun, the scissor boat had already spread out and formed a shape, using its two wings to firmly protect the Zhiyuan Warship.
The main cannons in front and behind were lifted, and the six inch Armstrong breeches started to rotate and fill with ammunition. The soldiers repeatedly adjusted the angles of the Hutch rapid fire gun and lubricated its supports. The soldiers repeatedly trained the loading and unloading of bullets …
Even the torpedo launcher had begun preparing for a simulated launch. The sailors practiced the launch process again and again. Besides not pressing the switch at the last moment, the entire process was close to combat.
"What's going on? What exactly do you guys want to do? " Kevin stomped his feet in anger. Right at this moment, Jin Sanshun, the internal affairs officer took out a black skull pirate flag.
"Mr. Kevin... From today onwards, the Zhiyuan Warship will no longer be flying the flag of any nation. In the future, please call me the Knight of Drake of the East! "
Kevin had gone mad. The notorious British private captain, Drake, had actually become a hero worthy of respect in the mouths of these youngsters. This made Kevin, who was born in a noble family, feel extreme heartache.
He decided to go and find Xiang Ying to protest, but was rendered speechless by the young man's words, "Mr. Kevin, you are an engineer worthy of respect. I also know that your ancestors were members of the Teutonic Knights.
"But please remember, this pride, to some extent, is also a shackle for the revival of your Prussian Nation … "Learn from the English. When we were fighting with Spain, they used all sorts of methods to rob us …"
"In order to combat the Spanish maritime trade, the Queen has issued numerous personal warrants and even specially designed a 'fast boat' suitable for privateering. Captain Drake's Avenger used to be a typical example of this kind of design! What was the final result? "It was a small victory, and one agile and quick private raider after another stole the Spanish wealth and armed the British Empire …"
"Did you really think God was protecting England during the Great War of 1588? Was it the Goddess of Victory who opened her underpants? Wrong! In fact, the British personal raiding tactics before this war had already caused the Spaniard to lose a lot of strength! "
"Dear Mr. Kevin, the spirit of a Knight deserves respect, but in a clash between nations, in the end, we still have to use some hooligan's methods.
Kevin's face alternated between red and white. He could not immediately deny the historical facts, the appearance of the private fleet was actually an extremely obvious form of national power killing battles.
If Britain sunk a Spanish warship, the Spanish force would be reduced by one point, and the British force would be increased by one or two. If the policy of privateering persisted for a hundred years, the final result would be a thorough re-cleansing of the national power of two countries.
It was the same for Prussia now. Today, when the two French transport ships were destroyed, the France's national power would be weakened by half. The gold and silver transported back from America would not turn into the Arms and ammunition that slaughtered the Prussian on the battlefield.
Kevin understood all of this, but he just could not help but feel troubled. Could it be that the glory of the Teutonic Knights would disappear forever?
