Chapter 313 We might as well cede land, pay compensation, and get married

Chapter 313: Why don’t we cede the land, pay compensation, and get married! (Please subscribe, please vote)

Indian Empire, Bombay Bay, the armored warrior HMS Warrior marched for ten kilometers.

The ever-warm sunshine of the Indian Ocean penetrated through the glass into the chilly Warrior conference room.

George Elliot, who was explaining why the Royal Indian Navy was defeated again, had just flown in an airship for nearly 30 hours, flying all the way from the Great Strait to Elephant Island, Mumbai. As soon as he got off the airship, he immediately boarded the Kaiser Wilhelm.

On the ship, I saw His Majesty the Emperor, whose face was livid, his eyes were red, and he was about to bite someone at the sight of him.

Of course Emperor William looked like he was in a hurry. Rabbits bite people when they are anxious, let alone the emperor?

When George Elliot was rushing to Elephant Island, Emperor William had already received the battle report sent by Lieutenant General James Hood via radio wave! It was really a shocking battle report. In just a few days of naval battle, the Royal Navy

We lost 8 shallow-water heavy gunships, 18 armored cruisers, 21 old second- and third-class cruisers, 6 latest fast destroyers and 2 powerful Victory-class battleships!

In addition, seven or eight transport ships transporting ammunition, supplies and Ah San soldiers to Penang Port and Port Klang have gone missing. Missing means that they suddenly disappeared, and no one knows where they went?

What's even more frightening is that it can currently be determined that Ming's losses were minimal, and the only significant ones were a few Haohan-class armored cruisers. Moreover, it can only be determined that they were severely damaged, but not sunk.

It is no exaggeration to say that the results of the just-concluded Battle of the Malacca Strait and the Battle of the Great Strait were a great victory for the Ming Dynasty and a great defeat for Britain and India!

The British Empire had been carefully preparing for the current battle for several years. It also created an Indian Empire specifically to bear debts and use it as cannon fodder. It also had its local shipyards work at full capacity to work overtime to build new battleships. It originally thought that it could rely on mass production

The manufactured Victory class gained an advantage of 18 to 24 months. Unexpectedly, as soon as the highly anticipated Victory class went into battle, one of the Ming Dynasty's "aircraft carrier battleships" blasted two of them with cannons and torpedoes!

Could it be that the Victory class was "built" wrong? The future belongs to aircraft-carrying battleships? Also, the British Empire seems to have no available "machine" at the moment. Does this aircraft-carrying battleship without "machine" still make sense?

Can Emperor William not turn blue in anxiety when he thinks about these things? Can he still sleep peacefully last night? Can his eyes not be red because he is so anxious that he can't sleep?

And George Elliot's current words made the Emperor of India and King of the United Kingdom even more excited and his blood pressure increased.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, in the Battle of Tregg Strait, the Ming Empire's fleet used a sea-air coordination tactic. Specifically, they first used aircraft to drop bombs, and at the same time, they used cannons with a caliber of more than 300 mm at 10,000 yards.

——Long-range fire at a distance of 8,000 yards. When our attention was completely attracted by their aircraft and battleships, their torpedo destroyers suddenly launched a charge and launched a large number of long-range missiles at a distance of 3,000 yards.

High-speed torpedo.”

"After the Malina and Willis were severely damaged by torpedoes, the aircraft that had been circling at mid-altitude to drop bombs began to use dive and hover methods to lower their altitude to several hundred meters before dropping bombs."

"After the Malina and Willis were hit by bombs and suffered heavier losses, the Ming army's aircraft-carrying battleship boldly approached, bombarded them with its cannons, and also fired torpedoes, inflicting heavy losses on the two ships.

A final blow from a dying battleship!"

"Your Majesty the Emperor, the soldiers on the Malina and the Wellesley have tried their best to fight! But the Ming Empire's battleships are too powerful, the artillery and torpedoes are too powerful, and the ships can carry heavy bombs for air strikes.

Carrier aircraft! It’s really too powerful.”

George Elliot's voice trembled as he said these words. He was fully involved in the preparations for the British Empire's war, and he witnessed with his own eyes the "human powered gliding bombs" that had been his hard work being shot down one after another, and he watched the victory.

A powerful warship like a class battleship was easily sunk by the opponent using "sea and air coordination tactics". Now that he talks about it again, can he not tremble?

"Are we defeated?"

Before George Yilu finished speaking, he was interrupted by a hoarse voice. Everyone followed the sound and found that the speaker was none other than their Emperor, His Majesty William.

"Did I make a mistake?" Emperor William glanced around and saw twenty or thirty eyes full of doubts and surprises. "Should we consider suing for peace now? Maybe we can ask my good brother Emperor Daoguang to come forward.

Be a middleman. Oh, and Louis XVII of France, he is also my friend. And the Czar. I can cede the Malay Peninsula to the Ming Dynasty, and then persuade the Dutch to transfer the Dutch East Indies to the Ming Dynasty, and we are here

The rights and interests of the Oregon colony can also be transferred to the Ming Dynasty. If that doesn't work, then they can pay hundreds of millions of rupees as compensation. As long as they don't touch India and Australia."

Emperor William is really scared now, afraid that his India will be taken away by the Ming Dynasty!

After being the emperor of India for a period of time, he has become "lucky", so he really can't imagine losing India and running back to Britain. Not to mention that the British people still want him as a "lost land"

"King William", even if you still want him. How can this British king be as happy as the Indian emperor?

"Your Majesty the Emperor!" Amesh, the chief minister of the Indian Empire, reminded, "The Oregon colony does not belong to the Indian Empire, and the House of Commons will not allow us to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, the Eastern Z-system empire, because that means handing over the power to rule the world.

Give in!"

"Then we won't cede Oregon," Emperor William thought for a moment. "We can't give up the power to rule the world. We can rule the world together with the Ming Empire!"

"Your Majesty the Emperor!" Marquis Nelson couldn't stand listening anymore. "Now is not the time for compromise, and there is no room for compromise between us and the British Empire! Because in today's world, there can only be one master and one order!"

"No, no" Emperor William shook his head repeatedly, "We can try a dynastic marriage. We can marry Princess Victoria to a prince of the Ming Dynasty! Her engagement with Grand Duke Alexander has almost been ruined by the House of Commons. We can give her a marriage now.

A new marriage is arranged!"

In fact, Victoria still likes the handsome boy Alexander. But the people in the British House of Commons look down on Maozi (Alexander is actually not Maozi, he and Victoria are fellow Germans), and feel that Grand Duke Alexander is not worthy of Princess Victoria. And Romanov

The dynasty has always been strong. Once they are allowed to take over England, the authority of the royal family will probably increase, and the Parliament will be suppressed.

"Your Majesty the Emperor," Amesh immediately became anxious upon hearing this, "This will make people think that we have surrendered to the Ming Empire. Who can imagine that the Zhu Ming Dynasty rules the United Kingdom?"

"Isn't it possible?" Emperor William frowned, "The Zhu Ming Dynasty has noble blood, and they began to rule China more than 400 years ago!"

"But the first emperor of the Zhu Ming Dynasty came from a humble background," Amesid said. "I heard that he was a beggar. How could he rule Britain?"

Emperor William said with a stern face, "My chief minister, what do you think we should do? Should we sit here and do nothing, waiting for the generals of the Zhu Ming Dynasty to come over with their invincible fleet? The Zhu Ming Dynasty cannot rule.

United Kingdom, is it okay to rule India?"

"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much," Marquis Nelson said. "Temasek Island and the Malay Peninsula have not yet fallen. It will take the Chinese at least 6-12 months to occupy them. Even if they occupy the Malay Peninsula and the Temasek Fortress,

It is impossible to organize an expedition to India immediately. So we should have 18 months to reorganize the navy, and I already have a case for naval reorganization."

"Emperor!" As soon as Nelson said this, Charlie Elliot had already knocked on the door and walked in, "Telegram from Ceylon Island, a Ming naval fleet has bypassed Ceylon Island and is currently heading north along the Indian coastline, possibly

Coming to Mumbai!”
