Chapter 151 The Temptation of Submarines

Hi! Old friend, we meet again!" As soon as he saw Major General Dilisi, T3 asked cordially.

As early as Hawaii, Zhang Yunfei had a conversation with Major General Delis. It was the time when the Pearl Harbor Fortress was built. Major General Lissi signed a bilateral agreement with Zhang Yunfei as a plenipotentiary representative, so the two had known each other long ago.

"So too, I'm very happy to see you! Your Excellency Duke! At the same time, congratulations to your Pacific Fleet for victory!" Major General Dilis also said.

"Haha! Thank you! Have you been watching the battle situation?" Zhang Yunfei showed great joy.

"Of course! It is really a blessing to see your fleet destroy the Russian Far East Fleet and achieve unprecedented victory. It is really a blessing in life and has benefited a lot!" Major General Dilisi said with a smile.

"Oh! I don't know what Lord Dilisi has got? I want to hear it!" Zhang Yunfei asked with interest.

Seeing Zhang Yunfei asking this question, Dilisi was even more convinced that there must be something wrong with Zhang Yunfei's Pacific Fleet. Otherwise, Zhang Yunfei would not ask what he had seen and learned.

So Major General Delis replied: "Your fleet can seize the good opportunity of the Russian fleet being dispersed, take the initiative to attack decisively, and concentrate all the main fleets to attack the Russian fleet. Your fleet can grasp the fighter jets so accurately and in time, which is worth learning from our German fleet."

After Zhang Yunfei smiled, he replied modestly: "To be honest, when I knew that the Russian fleet did not knock on the door or ring the doorbell, I broke into the Port of Lushun like a robber, I was very dissatisfied. You know, I am already General Shengjing, and Lushun is my territory! Do you think I should teach these Slavs a lesson?"

Well……

Facing Zhang Yunfei criticized the Russians, but also brought the Germans in with accusation. Major General Dilisi was very embarrassed, after all, they also occupied Jiaozhou Bay.

At this time, Zhang Yunfei asked if he should teach the Russians a lesson. Major General Dilisi didn't know how to answer him for a while.

Finally, Major General Delis said: "The Russians dared to occupy the territory of the Duke. They should teach them a lesson. In fact, this is what you did. Is it right?"

"Thank you for your understanding! I wonder what you have to do with this naval battle. You know. I don't understand the naval battle!" Zhang Yunfei scared Major General Dilisi and turned the topic back.

In fact, as a fleet commander, Major General Delis has been working very hard. His dream is to be an invincible fleet for the German Empire. One day he can travel across the oceans of the world like the British Royal Navy.

Always care about the situation of any fleet in the world. Carefully analyze their advantages and disadvantages. Find a suitable set of German naval roads.

Regarding Zhang Yun's enclave question, he was happy to answer. He did not pretend to be like a politician. Major General Liss said whatever he wanted. Instead, he fully displayed the style of the European Teutonic Knights era. He was as refreshing as the ancient Chinese heroes.

:+distance, always occupying the 't' head of the Russian fleet, and concentrating all side firepower to attack an opponent's warship, is really taking advantage of it."

"...I can say that the advantage of the fleet over the battleships is fully utilized. At the same time, I also know that the advantages of the battleships over other battleships are very good. I know to avoid Russian battleships, first attack other Russian small ships, and then come back to siege the Russian battleship formations with all their might, and finally successfully force the Russian fleet to surrender. It is very worth learning from our German navy."

"Your Excellency said very well, which made me, a navy young man, suddenly enlightened!" Zhang Yunfei said with admiration.

"...Xiaobai!" Major General Dilisi did not understand the meaning of Zhang Yunfei's "Xiaobai".

"Uh... I just don't know anything, just like a piece of white paper!" Zhang Yunfei wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking that the north was not very hot, so why would he sweat?

"Oh! So that's how it is. Your Excellency the Duke is modest." Major General Dilisi felt that he was very proud of his appearance when he saw Zhang Yunfei so modest, but he did not forget the serious business of coming here.

As the special envoy of German Emperor William II, Major General Delis' mission is to fully handle the Jiaozhou Bay incident and to reach the provisions of the secret agreement with Zhang Yunfei for Honolulu.

When it comes to political negotiations, Dilisi is not Zhang Yunfei's opponent.

"His Excellency Duke, I came here this time to hope that we can reach the signing of the Jiaozhou Bay Lease Treaty as soon as possible to end the hostile situation between our two countries as soon as possible." Major General Dilisi said.

"Oh, so that's the case! Can you represent the German government?" Zhang Yunfei asked.

"Of course. I have been authorized by His Majesty King William II to be fully responsible for Far East affairs and sign an armistice agreement with your country as soon as possible!" said Major General Delis.

Zhang Yunfei believed his words, and Zhang Yunfei had already asked the Qing court for the signing of the peace agreement. The Qing court's reply was to let Zhang Yunfei handle it with full authority, and the big men of the Military Affairs Office were also waiting to see Zhang Yunfei's joke!

Originally, Zhang Yunfei was planning to drag it, because renting Jiaozhou Bay to Germany would affect his reputation. This is for Zhang Yunfei, who had just returned to China.

thing.

However, the demise of the Russian fleet will make Zhang Yunfei's reputation at its peak, so he took this opportunity to sign the peace agreement quickly, which is the least of the loss of reputation for Zhang Yunfei.

No one would think that Zhang Yunfei was a traitor because in order not to be occupied by Russia, Zhang Yunfei dared to fight the Russian fleet and destroy the Russian fleet in order to prevent Lushun from being occupied by Russia.

On the contrary, people will think that Zhang Yunfei is a strategy of enduring humiliation and suffering from heavy burdens against Germany. Everyone knows the consequences of going to war against two powerful countries at the same time.

"Of course I have obtained the authorization of the Qing court to sign an armistice agreement with your country. All provisions are still implemented in accordance with the secret agreement signed in Honolulu. It is just that the name of Honolulu must be changed to the Qing Empire. I have sent people to Beijing. After the emperor agrees and signs, it will be transferred to you and will officially take effect after your emperor William's signature. But I want to make it clear that the cost of leasing Jiaozhou Bay in your country must be handed over to China Merchants Bank. If it is given to the Qing government, I will not admit it!" Zhang Yunfei said a little serious.

:+ also disappeared. As for Zhang Yunfei's request to hand over the rent to the Honolulu government, he knew very well that Zhang Yunfei took the opportunity to make money. However, it doesn't matter who he gave the money. What's important is that Germany can rule the Jiaoao region legitimately, and a large number of domestic military supplies can also be launched in Jiaozhou Bay.

:+, after all, Germany is just the friend of His Excellency the Duke!”

Zhang Yunfei knew the meaning of Major General Dilisi. If Zhang Yunfei had not intervened, Germany would not have paid a penny to buy Jiaoao. The Qing Dynasty declared war on Germany. If Zhang Yunfei had not wanted peace and the Qing court would not have bleeding, he would not have tried to fight against the German team.

The same sentence is the same, countries still rely on strength, and what the "cannon" says is the truth!

Zhang Yunfei nodded and said, "That's the best. After the main talks, should we have a glass of wine to celebrate?"

"Of course, I'm happy to accompany you!" Major General Dilisi nodded and said.

Seeing that Dilisi agreed, Zhang Yunfei asked the guards to bring two glasses of wine, and the two of them talked about family matters together.

At the beginning, Dilisi also talked about some of his life experiences, but out of naval instinct, Dilisi changed to the topic of naval again.

"Hisser Duke, there is one more thing, I hope you can answer me!" asked Major General Dilis.

"If you have any questions, please just ask, I will try my best to answer!" Zhang Yunfei replied with a sip of wine.

"I want to know some things about the Pacific Fleet's submarines! I wonder if the Duke will reveal it." Major General Liss asked, staring at Zhang Yunfei, afraid that he would talk nonsense.

Zhang Yunfei said without changing his face: "That's all! It's no big deal! The scientists from the Honolulu Navy Department were idle and got two submarines out. Their performance was average, but they were quite intimidating. You may have seen that in today's naval battle, they made great contributions and sank several Russian warships. However, these two submarines were also beaten by Russian warships and almost sank."

Zhang Yunfei did not say that the two submarines collided and injured in the sea, but if they were half true and half false, they would be the most foolish person. Dilisi really believed it.

Because Germany is also studying submarines, but because the Admiralty and the German emperor do not pay attention to it and lack research funds, the results are not very effective and the performance of submarines is also poor. However, Zhang Yunfei's submarines are obviously better than those of Germany. The Germans will not be as sluggish as William, at least Dilis is not.

"I don't know if Your Excellency the Duke is willing to build the submarines used by your army for Germany. Of course, if you can sell the technology of your submarines to the German Navy, we will be grateful!" Dilis said tentatively.

Submarines are an important part of future naval warfare and play an important role. Zhang Yunfei hesitated for a moment and thought that he was the only one left in the Far East, and the threat to the sea in a short period of time was basically gone. Why not take the opportunity to sell arms and accumulate construction experience and wealth?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yunfei said: "Of course! It is our honor to be able to build submarines for the German Navy!"

"Really? Thank you for your generosity! On behalf of the German Emperor William and the German Admiralty, I would like to thank you! However, can the Duke sell us the technical patents of the submarine to us?" Major General Delis said happily.

"As for submarine technology patents? This is hard to estimate. You know, our submarines have been tested in actual combat and have successful battle examples. Such patented technology cannot be measured by money, but if your country has advanced technology that is relatively equal to it, we can exchange it!" Zhang Yunfei said. He only wants to sell submarines to make money, but the technology does not want to sell it for the time being.

"This... I wonder what kind of technology in our country can be exchanged with it?" Dilis asked carefully.
