1864 Ship Parade at Sea

The naval parade, also known as the ship-reading style, in the hundreds of years of development of the Royal Navy, the ship-reading style was the most important means to directly demonstrate the power of the empire. Its strategic deterrence effect is no less than that of nuclear tests conducted by the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War in later generations.

In that era when strength is the basis, it is a very effective way to deter enemy countries from warships.

Generally speaking, the locations for the British sea-reading ships were in the Plymouts military port, but the colonial governors also held some small ship-reading ships to shock the local indigenous countries.

In history, after the legendary Admiral Nelson defeated the Faspisian coalition in the Battle of Trafalgar, Britain had conducted a super-large maritime ship reading.

The other time was carried out after the European Union defeated Napoleon in 1814 and officially signed the Paris Peace Treaty. These two times were also recognized as the largest ship reading style in the era of sail warships.

The British sea ship reading style in 1914 was the largest after the ironclad ship was equipped, because it was held two weeks before the UK declared war on Germany before World War I. At that time, all British battleships were dispatched, and the ironclad warships on the bay were out of sight. It was known in history that the most murderous ship reading style was the most powerful.

"It's all routines! It's always the case. Before a conflict between countries, you must show off your muscles first. The British are also masters here!" Xiao Letian murmured.

At this moment, the officers and soldiers on the Zhiyuan and the accompanying warship also put away their contempt just now. More than 20 sail warships gathered together, and the white sails covered the entire bay. The visual conflict was indeed very shocking.

After the end of World War II, Japan signed a surrender letter on the Missouri warship. At that time, the dark cloud-like fighter plane flew over Tokyo Bay, and its wings even blocked the sun's brilliance.

The influence of the bare fruit showing off its strong industrial capabilities will allow you to feel it deeply by just looking at photos and movies.

"Strength! This is the power we have always pursued! This is the ultimate manifestation of a country's comprehensive strength! All power will eventually be cast into that sharp sword!"

"We Chinese must have this sharp sword!"

Just as Xiao Letian was secretly making up his mind, suddenly the British ships on the sea sent flags and uttered them to welcome the two most powerful leaders in the East to Xingjia.

All the warships and salutes sounded 21 times, and white smoke covered the entire bay. The marina in the distance had already roared and thundered into a thunderous sea. On that day, 100,000 Chinese people came out in full swing, and more than 30,000 people gathered at the marina.

Xingjiagang itself is a large island, facing the south from Indonesia across the river, with many small islands mixed in it. At this moment, all the islands near the main channel are worshipped by Chinese people.

One is the head of Chinese who saved the Chinese in danger in the South China Sea, and is their last backer.

One is the spiritual leader in the hearts of all Chinese people, the emperor who has been mythological.

This is a grand scene that has not been seen in hundreds of years. This is a miracle that Chinese people have never even dared to imagine in their dreams since they immigrated to Southeast Asia!

At that moment, everyone had only one voice in their hearts, "We are no longer orphans. Finally, some people remember us, still love us, and others care about us!"

The blue smoke in the incense burner gathered into a ball, and the old men in full dress led the clan's children to bow down like waves, one wave after another, never ending.

There were crying, long live roars, and in the end there were only one sentence.

"I beg your Majesty to go ashore! I beg the Head of State to go ashore!"

If a relative and son comes from the north, how can you not go ashore to drink a sip of the wine and eat a sip of the meat you worship!

The voice finally reached the Zhiyuan, and everyone burst into tears. Looking at these relatives who had been living abroad for hundreds of years, everyone could not control their emotions.

Zaichun's tears fell like a pearl with a broken thread. "Who said that I, the Qing Dynasty, had no heart to the people? It turned out that we just didn't do well enough before! It turned out that as long as I could get out and leave that prison, as long as Wanmin saw me with his own eyes... they still love me! Still love me..."

"Master! Let's go ashore... I want to see these people who are wandering overseas!" Zai Chun raised his sleeves and wiped his tears.

But Xiao Letian shook his head and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers. "No... I have communicated diplomatically with the British before, but their request is that they cannot land!"

"This group of people is afraid that we Chinese will unite! If you and I land at this moment, then many things will... be too many variables..."

Xiao Letian dared not say the word "Ministry Rebellion" because he knew that the emotions of 100,000 Chinese are now very unstable, and the news of Borneo and Far East victory, the people's spirit is too high.

Once Zai Chun and himself land, God knows if there will be a riot!

The British will never allow login, they see this more clearly!

But Zai Chun was already emotional at this moment, his mind was filled with blood. He glared at Xiao Letian and growled, "No! No... I want to see my people! I must see you!"

"I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty! Can't I go see my people with my own eyes? Master, if you don't let me get ashore, then give me a small boat and I row over!"

"Silly!" Xiao Letian roared, "Governor Philip of Britain is coming by boat soon! At this critical moment, what are you filling in the mess?"

"We don't have the capital to turn against the UK now! Do you want us to be sunk here by the UK?"

Xiang Ying also said coldly, "Now we are greeted with salutes, but I firmly believe that countless new shells have been unboxed next to those cannons, as well as the turrets on the shore, and live ammunition must be prepared!"

"Behind the British's face is the knife. In this narrow bay, no matter how powerful our Zhiyuan has, it cannot withstand many wolves!"

"No matter, no matter! I don't care... I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. I heard the voices of 100,000 people! Please, Master, please, can I let me get ashore for a short time? I will just take a sip of wine and take a look at my people?"

"If the boat is not given to me, I will swim ashore!"

Zai Chun was crazy. At such a critical ceremony, he actually got angry like a child!

Xiao Letian clenched his palms tightly and let go, and he really wanted to slap him in one slap.

"You're going crazy? Are you really going crazy in front of more than twenty British warships and more than ten coastal defense turrets?"

"Okay, okay... I'll give you a chance to go crazy, I'll show you what the consequences will be!"

Wang Huaiyuan, Luo Huo, Xiang Ying and others beside him were frightened and their faces were pale. "No! Absolutely not! This is suicide..."
