Then the Peruvian capital Lima was shocked. Hundreds of thousands of citizens could not believe their ears. It was shocking enough to lose Iquique, but unexpectedly, even the navy was finished.

The Kayao port only saw the warships returning to the ship three days later. I don’t know whether it was luck or ridicule. Most of the Peruvian naval generals came back alive. The second flagship Lima was like the one who drove back from the garbage recycling station, and it was just a matter of sailor paddling.

The entire hull was blown to the darkness, and the iron armor that opened its mouth twisted and twisted and told the cruelty of the naval battle. One third of the towering chimney was blown off, and it looked like a chocolate bar that had been bitten by someone.

The deck was covered with wounded soldiers wrapped in gauze. They looked at the citizens in the port with dejected expression, unable to speak a word of shame.

"Oh God! What did you encounter?" None of the soldiers could answer the questions of the citizens.

After hearing the news of Iquique's defeat, Henry, an arms dealer in Lima, was shocked and smashed the wine glass in his hand. The broken desert city had nothing to do with him, but the failure of the naval battle was very incredible to him.

"Send all our intelligence personnel immediately. We must get all the information of this warship and inform the London side to take action. This war is no longer a conflict between small South American countries. The British Empire's maritime power has been threatened!"

"Are these Chinese going to go against the will of heaven? How did they do it? What exactly happened on the sea?"

No one knew the answer. In the following days, some warships returned to the military port one after another. When the number of warships returned to the eleven, no warships came back.

According to post-war statistics, six of the only eleven warships left by the Peruvian Navy were completely unable to be repaired and could only be scrapped. The remaining five would have to undergo at least one and a half years of overhaul before they could barely go to the battlefield, which means that the Peruvian Navy was completely abolished.

The news has spread throughout South America at this moment, and all countries were shocked silently. Peru and Bolivia expanded their army frantically, but they just built fortresses at the border without daring to take any counterattack.

The myth of the invincible Chinese army spread like a virus in the South American continent. Even a company of Taiping Army was swaying within the range of an enemy's army in a regiment with a pennant flag, but the enemy did not dare to fire a single shot.

When the war entered a stalemate, Major General Neshirapizo in Iquik's harbor finally saw Xiang Ying, the commander of the legendary warship. When he found that the commander was so young, his eyes were even bigger than the cowbell.

"God! Is this your naval commander? If you didn't lie to me on purpose, I think I understand the deep reason for your victory. Only such a young general dares to take such a military adventure... I say bluntly that if your generals are of this average age, your future is really unimaginable!"

Xiang Ying and the officers were dressed in formal clothes and took out a naval dress that they could not easily wear on the bottom of the box. The gorgeous patterns and golden tassels were hung around their waists. The imitation Tang swords, white gloves, and pure gold stars made of pure gold on the patent leather hat were shining brightly. As soon as the group appeared, these South American native chickens were hit by a psychological blow.
