For Xiao Letian now, any love for children and any emotional matters are poison. He has exhausted his efforts for the upcoming bloody battle, and he is about to collapse.

At this moment, the night was already deep. He was alone in the study, constantly flipping through the top-secret information he had just sent. The guards and soldiers outside the door formed round after circle of security defense lines. It was more like a prison than a prime minister's mansion.

"It seems that the British have been paying attention to the situation in East Asia! After a Count of Derby was settled, another Benjamin came... This information about the Russian fleet must have been leaked to the Qing Dynasty by Benjamin!"

The CIA secret report, which had just been sent back from Nanyang, proved the accuracy of Fu Qing's intelligence provided. The third master did not deceive Xiao Letian. The warship information provided by the British was so detailed.

The Russian fleet has now approached the Strait of Malacca. The Chinese merchant ships on the Andaman Sea have approached this huge fleet at close range and brought back first-hand visual intelligence.

"Twelve main armored warships with displacement of more than 3,000 tons... fifteen destroyers with displacement of less than 2,000 tons... and even eighteen light gunboats and torpedo boats with displacement of less than 1,000 tons..."

"Good, are you here to deal with the foundation of the warehouse in East Asia? The rags of the Baltic Fleet have been pulled out? There are actually sixteen sail merchant ships, which are all the way to follow as supply ships... Haha, it is entirely the strategic thinking of the later generations of Hai Zhan!"

Xiao Letian was impatiently wandering around the room, denying it back and forth like schizophrenia.

"No problem, although there are too many warships, the quality is not good at all... The main iron armored warships are all modified by old wooden shell ships. Zhiyuan's main gun can completely kill this kind of warship... Those destroyers are even weaker, and some of them are even old paddle wheels. This is completely eliminated goods..."

He just gave himself a little confidence, and then he began to deny himself constantly, "No, no, no, you can't underestimate the enemy, absolutely not underestimate the enemy... The enemy's mass is not enough but the number is too large, so many ants will bite the elephant to death!"

"The intelligence was completely distorted before. I didn't expect that the Russians would send so many warships and so many soldiers... The combined sailors and army soldiers are close to 30,000. What if they didn't fight on the sea and choose to break through the north quickly?"

"Damn it, 30,000 heavy-armed new forces have been put into the Far East, so how can Longye's volunteer army fight? What is the most worrying thing is that these 30,000 people are concentrated and used. Once a joint force is formed to form a large army to put pressure on the Qing Dynasty?"

With a bang, Xiao Letian punched the table and said, "Make trouble, everyone will cause trouble for me! For this bloody battle, I have exhausted my energy. I have introduced the Chinese Code in advance to unite the hearts of the people. I tried every means to paralyze the Qing Dynasty and the European powers. I just wanted to pretend to be a grandson..."

"But why are you not only not helping, but helping you more? I won't talk about those bastards in Beijing, let alone Britain and France, they are born to be careless..."

"But Fuqing, why did you jump out and make trouble for me? Zaichun, you can't calm down? Even the sword-drawing camp that I believe most has come to such a camp!"

Xiao Letian's dry palms rubbed his face desperately, and he forced himself to relax and relax for a while. But when he thought of the conflict between him and Ryuma Sakamoto during the day, he felt a trembling in his heart.

His eyes fell on a piece of paper on the far left of the desk, and there was only a line of words on it, "Ryuma Sakamoto headed south on a Dutch merchant ship at 1:35 pm, and the ship was heading to Hong Kong."

"Hey... Longmajun, you are trustworthy and have not returned to China. Forget it, go wherever you want. As long as you don't betray me, I will naturally not deal with you..."

Thinking of this, Xiao Letian suddenly said, "Come..." Amid the shouts, a guard pushed the door and stood quietly at the desk. Xiao Letian wrote quickly on the information, and finally folded it and handed it over to the guard.

"Give it to Wang Huaiyuan and let him do it quickly!"

"Yes!" The guard saluted and turned his head and quickly left the study. In a short while, the information signed by Xiao Letian was placed in front of Wang Huaiyuan, with the wax seal on it intact.

Open the intelligence, Wang Huaiyuan closed his eyes sadly after just a glance. Xiao Letian's handwriting was very clear, "I'll order the head of the Hong Kong CIA to closely monitor Ryuma Sakamoto's every move. If this person has any dangerous actions... I authorize you to take action first and then report!"

"Why is this? Prime Minister, what's wrong with you? Why is this..." Wang Huaiyuan suddenly felt palpitations. He quickly took out the silver wine pot in his arms, which was filled with Suhexiang wine secretly made from the Qing Palace.

After taking two big gulps, the feeling of palpitations improved a lot. He looked at the information sadly, and finally sighed and took out a pen and wrote on the cover, "Send it to Hong Kong immediately and do things according to the rules."

After completing such a sad errand, Wang Huaiyuan opened a new file, which contained the security details for the Zhiyuan cruised Ryukyu on the seventh day of the first lunar month of the year. This was the most important activity five days later. The Zhiyuan hidden in the military port was finally about to meet the people. How to ensure the safety of the activity was all on Wang Huaiyuan's shoulders.

"Well? The Prime Minister hopes that military and civilian representatives will board the ship to visit? It is absolutely not possible. This article is denied... Is it necessary to ask whether to cover the cannon suit? Of course, it is covered. The main gun is absolutely not allowed to be seen by outsiders..."

"Live-fire shooting? Wrong, wrong, so many spies are hiding in Ryukyu, how can we actively expose the weapon system? Isn't this nonsense?"

"The Zhiyuan must be cruised from a long distance and cannot be parked at civil ports. People are absolutely not allowed to watch it up close..."

"Xiang Ying and the others still want to lead their troops ashore? They still want to perform military parades in front of Wanmin? Don't blame Uncle Wang for being unreasonable. I'm not letting you show off. These limelights should be released after the war is over..."

"Before the outbreak of the war, the composition of the officers and soldiers of the Zhiyuan unit was absolutely confidential and could not be known to anyone!"

There are two people under Xiao Letian's command, one is Xiao Hexin. Although he is disabled, he is still competent as a senior chief of staff. He has a strong say in formulating Xiao Letian's grand strategy. Many times, Xiao Letian has to absorb Xiao Hexin's opinions, and many of Xiao Letian's ideas were denied by Xiao Hexin.

The second power center is Wang Huaiyuan, the founder of the CIA, who is responsible for the entire intelligence work alone. He can use confidentiality regulations to deny some of Xiao Letian's decisions of great success.

For example, according to Wang Huaiyuan's proposal, the Zhiyuan cruise should not be carried out at all. As the sea war is about to break out, Zhiyuan should be used as a secret weapon.

But Xiao Letian's attitude is very firm. He believes that the more the eve of the war, the more we should stabilize the people's hearts... The Zhiyuan, which came with a fierce victory, is undoubtedly a powerful tool to stabilize people's hearts, so the cruise performance must be carried out.

Since Wang Huaiyuan cannot deny the general direction, he can only make it difficult for Xiao Letian in terms of details. Many performance sessions that are prone to causing military leaks have been denied under his pen.
