1705 Truth and Dignity(2/2)
Tang Mingyue understood in her heart, "Okay, I'll get ready right now."
After leaving, the uncle thought for a while, picked up the phone again, and called Shanghai Shipyard.
Shanghai, Navy Headquarters.
One-armed old man sitting on a chair and looking at documents.
A young man walked in at the door, carrying a thermos bottle in his hand, came behind the old man, and filled the water glass on his left hand with water.
"Grandpa, get ready to eat."
The one-armed old man glanced at his grandson in front of him and smiled kindly, "Xiao Anzi, why are you back?"
"Hey, the sailors are on vacation, I'll come back to see you."
Chen An pulled out a stool and sat down, looking at the documents on the table with a curious expression.
"What are you looking at? This is what you can see."
Although the old man's voice was scolding, there was a look of doting on his face that was visible to the naked eye.
"Grandpa, are we going to build a big ship?"
"You kid, why are you asking this?"
"Grandpa, I heard from people on the boat that we want to make a bigger boat so that we can install bigger cannons and shoot farther."
The one-armed old man laughed and then shook his head.
"Our big ship is not equipped with cannons."
"Why?"
Chen An asked puzzledly. In his opinion, those battleships and their thick gun muzzles were the most powerful weapons for defending the sea.
The old man stretched out his left hand and stroked his grandson's head. This grandson was no longer young this year, but his knowledge was still limited around him.
Thinking of Captain Yang recognizing that grandson, his current achievements are even higher than his own.
The reason why they were able to study large ships was thanks to the models that people had traveled thousands of miles to build.
And the large ship they are now enlarging to equal proportions has brought them new ideas and opened new doors.
If this big ship, or even the big ships in the future, are built, that guy will have a share of the credit.
And all their sailors owe someone a favor.
"Xiao Anzi, in this era, cannon is no longer the overlord."
Chen An pursed his lips and continued to ask, "The cannon is gone, so what should we pretend to be?"
The one-armed old man smiled, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, "Our big ship is equipped with airplanes."
Ring ring ring
As he finished speaking, the phone rang.
The old man stretched out his left hand to pick up the phone, and the next second he stood up from his seat, his whole person became serious and iron-blooded.
"Chief!"
"Yes, I understand. I will arrange the fleet right away."
After hanging up the phone, the old man had a murderous look in his eyes.
"Xiao Anzi, after you finish your meal, go back by yourself."
Chen An nodded after hearing this and did not ask.
Under night.
At the harbor, a destroyer slowly sailed out and headed south.
On the ship shrouded in darkness, the newly repaired deck and the replaced name Su guarded the origin of this destroyer.
The flag placed at the highest point rustled in the night wind.
Behind it, six of the latest fishing boats came out one after another, followed the destroyer, and disappeared into the night.
peninsula hospital
When Han Xuanfeng got the document sent by Tang Mingyue, he was silent for a moment, then picked up the document and went to discuss it with the Folangji people in Haojing.
After this period of cooperation, the two parties have already established a basis for cooperation.
In particular, the last time they attacked people who were living a good life, the answer given by the defenders of Peninsula Hospital simply frightened the French people.
Not to mention anything else, if these people stationed at the hospital really wanted to fight, they would be able to sweep through Haojing.
Of course, this only refers to the strength on the ground.
What they really relied on were the three gunboats staying in the port.
Although they were all products from ten years ago, compared to the opposite, this is already a remarkable existence.
It is precisely because of the support of these three gunboats that they can stand straight when they speak.
However, they also know that now is the time for win-win cooperation. It would be great if we all make money together.
When Han Xuanfeng found the Folangji people to communicate, he wanted to conduct a drug exchange house through the port.
After hearing this, Franji immediately shook his head and rejected it.
Wharfs, especially military wharves where gunboats dock, are not accessible to just anyone, as that would be detrimental to the country's face.
Han Xuanfeng spent a lot of time talking, but the other party still insisted on insisting on it. These guys were all greedy like beetles. They were more active than anyone else in making money. Now they were talking about loyalty and honor.
It made him sick to hear it.
If it hadn't been impossible, he, Han Xuanfeng, would have had people rush in with armored vehicles and kill all these guys.
No matter how hard you say it, it still doesn't work.
As a result, in the morning of the next day, Franji suddenly found Han Xuanfeng and thought they could talk.
This sudden change made Han Xuanfeng unable to recover and felt that the other party was teasing him.
Until I received news that the fleet that went to Shanghai last night fought a victorious battle in the strait and destroyed three of the opponent's gunboats.
Only then did I understand. Aren't there just three gunboats in the other side's harbor?
Han Xuanfeng smiled happily, and then thought of the changes in these Folangji people before and after, and fully understood that wise saying.
The truth is only within the range of the cannon.
