Seven hundred and twentieth chapters are powerful and promising
Fengjun's fighter planes dropped bombs from all directions. The British, who had been so arrogant just now, suddenly felt that they were in danger. Although the Yangtze River was wide, there were not many areas for warships with thousands of tons to sail. They wanted to avoid the god of death falling from the sky.
, that is wishful thinking.
Amidst the desperate shouts of the British sailors, a bomb happened to fall less than three meters in front of the frigate. With a muffled thunderous sound, the warship was thrown out of the water. The bow of the ship was beyond recognition and fell upside down on the river.
The people on the boat had no time to escape, and they all fell into the river. They tried their best and shouted desperately for their companions to rescue them, but it was all to no avail. Those British ships were also in trouble, and it could even be said that
A devastating disaster. The heroic ships that could not effectively evade became like lambs, allowing themselves to be attacked by the eagles in the sky.
Boom, a ball of fire rose from the middle of a destroyer. The flames turned the warship into a large torch. The flying flames could be seen clearly from a distance.
Some fishermen hiding on both sides of the strait were secretly watching this scene. They have lived on the Yangtze River for generations. Although the war broke out, they had nowhere to go. No matter what happened, they could only resist.
But at this moment, they finally saw a scene they had never seen in their lives. A British fleet was attacked by the Chinese army, and the arrogant British warships sank into the river one after another. The British soldiers fell like chickens and ducks.
Into the water.
Seeing this, an old fisherman suddenly burst into tears. With a thin hand, he tightly held the side of the boat, and his tears fell into the river.
"Oh my God, you finally opened your eyes. These beasts are now here too!"
The old fisherman suddenly turned around. He ran into the cabin and took out a small, aged wooden box. With trembling hands, he opened the box and found a spiritual tablet inside.
"My dear, have you seen it? It has been more than ten years, and finally there is retribution. Those guys who knocked you down have now sunk into the river. They all deserve to go to hell. You just wait for the Lord of Hell.
.Let me vent your grievance."
After saying a few words, the old fisherman burst into tears. Over the years, the Chinese people who rely on the river to eat have suffered so much humiliation. Various Japanese warships are going back and forth unscrupulously in the Yangtze River. How many fishermen and people have been sunk by them.
Yes, the blood debt is heavy.
However, it is often China that suffers the consequences, but still has to apologize to the great powers, and even blame the fishermen who suffered. Everyone's stomach is full of bitterness, and many people have become accustomed to suffering and being angry. Perhaps this is the way the Chinese people should be.
.Always look up to foreigners and always be bullied by them.
However, after seeing the scene in front of him, all the pent-up resentment in his heart came out. The old fisherman took his son's hand and said solemnly: "Take it up and join the army. Follow the troops who can help us fight. Dad will feel relieved."
Got it!"
Four of the five British warships were destroyed one after another in less than twenty minutes. Only the Yarmouth cruiser, the largest tonnage, was still struggling on the river.
Construction of this warship started in 1910, with a full load displacement of 5,800 tons. It is considered to be Britain's largest light cruiser in the Far East and has outstanding combat capabilities. It also participated in the Battle of Jutland.
Seeing her companions sinking one after another, the Yarmouth was alone on the river, looking particularly lonely. The sound of bomb explosions continued, the flames on other warships were still burning, and the sailors were still struggling painfully. If it dragged on like this, it would soon be
Obviously they will end up like this too,
At this time, as a destroyer was completely sunk, the Yarmouth finally seized a gap and fled towards Nanjing at the fastest speed. However, not far away, the warship suddenly stopped and there was a sound from the bottom of the warship.
There was a frightening sound. The British troops on the ship were all experienced people. They suddenly felt that the sky was falling.
The Yarmouth rushed into the shoal in a hurry. The bow of the ship was already stuck in the sand and could not move forward. The captain was suddenly struck by thunder. He hurriedly ordered to retreat and tried to escape.
However, the more panicked, the easier it was to make mistakes. A piece of floating warship debris happened to be involved in the steering gear at the stern of the ship. Immediately, the Yarmouth lost the ability to turn and could only be stranded on the river.
The Fengjun pilots who were attacking were overjoyed when they saw that the Yarmouth would not move. Such fixed targets were rare, and they were about to drop bombs. However, Wang Bin, who was in charge of the command, suddenly had an idea and captured a ship.
A warship is much more useful than sinking one.
Although Fengjun has devoted its efforts to develop its navy, its financial resources are limited. Apart from the Mackensen, which is being renovated, and the warships ordered from Italy, Fengjun does not yet have a five- to six-thousand-ton warship!
Therefore, Wang Bin hurriedly used the radio to shout to all the pilots to stop their reckless actions. Even so, a bomb fell on the stern of the Yarmouth. The violent explosion took away the lives of more than a dozen British soldiers.
Wang Bin also regretted it so much that he could only report it to his superiors in a hurry.
After Yang Yuting got the news, he was also overjoyed. Fengjun just lacked maritime power. It would be a great thing to capture a basically intact warship. And capturing the warship also meant that everyone on it would also be trapped.
In his own hands, holding a hostage is equivalent to holding the life of the British.
"My orders are to get the Yarmouth into your hands no matter what, without suffering any damage."
After Zhou Zijian got the order, he immediately sent a clear telegram to the Yarmouth, asking them to surrender immediately, otherwise they would be sunk. At this time, the second wave of air force also arrived, and the planes were hung with bombs.
The forehead is constantly swaying on his head, a living modern version of the Sword of Damocles.
After a two-hour stalemate, the British troops above finally couldn't bear it anymore. They boarded the fishing boat and became prisoners of the Feng army. However, the Yarmouth's hull was too large and required a special tugboat to transport it away.
We can only stay in the center of the river temporarily, but Yang Yuting has arranged special troops to ensure the safety of the Yarmouth and not allow anyone to approach. This is the meat in Fengjun's bowl!
The battle on the Yangtze River did not last long. The British sank four warships and stranded one, killing more than 300 sailors and drowning. In addition, more than 500 people were captured, and less than 100 were captured.
People swam along the Yangtze River to the south bank.
When these dignitaries from the Southern Province saw the Royal Navy of the British Empire lying limp on the river bank like drowned rats, they were all shocked.
Fengjun fought with the Russians and Japan, but these were all blocked by border areas, rich places like Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and could not be seen. Moreover, in everyone's mind, the great powers were divided into different levels. There is no doubt that the Japanese
The Buluo Empire is the one at the top, and everyone can't help but bow down to it.
But when they dragged out the Royal Navy personnel one by one from the muddy water, the elegant, strong and proud image of the British in their hearts completely collapsed. The soldiers at the bottom were not clear about the struggle for power above, but they just
You know the truth, the British failed and were defeated by the Chinese with the same yellow skin and dark eyes as themselves!
In fact, this alone was enough. The Feng army dared to attack the British and won the battle. It was like thunder that fell in the heart of China.
Major newspapers reported the news crazily, and printing plants in almost all cities were working hard to print newspapers, but even so, they were still sold out. In fact, not only the citizens, but also the printing workers
While staring at the newspaper, a smile will appear on your face unconsciously.
Well done! Well done Fengjun!
Since the Opium War, the British have been running rampant on Chinese soil. Over the past eighty years and several generations of Chinese people, the people have accumulated so much resentment and injustice in their hearts. Now they finally have the time to feel proud. The foreigners have not.
What's amazing is that as long as Chinese people have courage and backbone, they can defeat foreigners.
And those politicians and warlords who are willing to fall at the feet of foreigners have become the ugliest and most despicable group of people. Without these lackeys, maybe the Chinese would have stood up long ago.
As soon as the news spread, all Chinese people in the north and south of the Yangtze River, on both sides of the Yellow River, regardless of region, felt sincere joy. The demonstrations in support of Zhang Tinglan quickly reached their peak. This demonstration included not only students and businessmen, but also workers and people.
Everyone also joined in, and even some rural areas were alarmed.
The number of people marching was like a snowball, and no one dared to stop this turbulent trend. As soon as the march started, Cao Kun of Nanjing issued an order asking the military and police to take to the streets to guard against it.
But none of these soldiers and police are stupid. The boss behind Cao Kun and the others is the British. But now even your master, Feng Jun, can beat you. What good end can you expect? If at this time, you continue to follow Nan
If you save these people from messing around, wouldn't it be like being a slave with a slave?
There was no guarantee that they would not be punished after the Fengjun came. Therefore, these military and policemen were very wise and gave the parade a wide berth and did not dare to stop them at all.
After Cao Kun received the report, he cried out in vain. Such a move by Feng Jun destroyed the morale of the army, and no one was willing to work wholeheartedly.
Just when Cao Kun was at a loss what to do, Qi Xieyuan suddenly ran in and said breathlessly: "President, that old fox Zhang Jian has left Nanjing and has gone to Shanghai Union Medical College Hospital for treatment. I heard that he had a stroke!"
"Shit! This old guy has run away. You are afraid of Fengjun, but I am not. Fu Wan, we must work together to fight Fengjun to the end."
While he was talking, another fatal news came. Zhang Tinglan issued an order to appoint Tan Yankai as the aftermath officer for the two lakes, Deng Xihou as the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan anti-rebellion army, and Li Zongren as the commander-in-chief of the Guangdong and Guangxi anti-rebellion armies.
After hearing the news, Cao Kun almost fell down: "Zhang Tinglan is going to cut off our retreat. This move is too cruel!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
