Da, and a 6,000-ton behemoth like the Baya.

On the flagship Baya, the commander-in-chief of the Gaul Long-range Army, Lieutenant Admiral, was standing there, next to his adjutant lieutenant colonel.

"Your Excellency Commander, is it too dangerous for you to do this! We can go to Keelung or Mawei Shipyard together."

Pierre said nervously.

"Need or not, since the country has decided to completely defeat people, then only by giving them a strong enough blow can they give in!" Guban said in the direction looking at it.

"Why? Can't we occupy them? There are still new troops to be dispatched in the country." Pierre was a little puzzled.

"Pierre, this country is too big, with a population of hundreds of millions. The European style of warfare is not suitable for use here. Maybe we can win one victory after another, but Gaul is too small to have With so many troops and many colonies for us to protect, there is no way to completely occupy it."

Guba turned and looked at Pierre and said with a smile.

"General, I understand, people can replenish their soldiers at any time, but we can't afford the consequences of failure. As long as one big failure is enough to hurt us, the Republic has gone through the war with the Nazis and it is no longer what it used to be Strong.

"We can only get enough benefits from them! General, you'd better take'Baya', the thing "Dingyuan" ship is coming, and Baya can still contend with him."

Pierre felt that he understood, but still felt that the solitary plan was a bit risky, assaulting a military port and fighting on two fronts while attacking Keelung.

"No! Dingyuan has returned to Lushun. The emperor of man is always greedy for life and fear of death. He will not let the north fall into emptiness."

"I'll take the lead in Woerda. Keelung is a fortress and needs'Baya' to deal with their shore defense artillery. Don't worry, I will protect myself well."

Gu Ba shook his head and denied the idea of ​​his adjutant.

"Yes! Your Excellency Commander!"

Lieutenant Colonel Pierre had no choice but to accept the order.

Guba went to the "Wurda", the Gaul fleet became two teams, all the way to Mawei, all the way to Keelung Port.

In the southeast of Fuzhou, where the Wulong River and Nantai River converge, the section into the sea is called Majiang, and the port is called Mawei Port.

Here is the most advanced Mawei Shipyard, stationed at Jianfu Naval Academy and Naval Academy, and Fuzhou Shipbuilding Bureau is not far away.Yiyun Chinese www.yiyuzw.com

"My lord! The imperial court calls! Order me to protect the Mawei Shipyard! If there is an attack by the Gallic army! Stand by for help!"

Guan Dai Gao Yuanzheng hurriedly ran to the Jianfu Marine Affairs Minister He Ruzhang and said.

"But the Gallic army did not come, and they will not attack the naval port? There are warships from other countries here!"

He Ruzhang was a little confused by this sudden order. In his opinion, there are 4 warships such as Geely State and Citi "Enterprise" and "Gems" docked in the port. Gaul should not be able to do it, and there is no Gaul at all. The shadow of the army.

"The telegram said that the war-fighters are the same as Zhao Wo's disposal! The adults can't control that much."

Gao Yuanzheng looked at these foreign countries, and the warships couldn't help sighing. His own naval port was docked with warships from other countries.

"Order the coastal defense artillery gunners in place! All the ships turn around, and they can enter the fighting state at any time! The navy personnel are on standby! All in place!"

He Ruzhang gritted his teeth and ordered immediately when he thought of Zhao Wo's fate.

After a while, Jianfu Navy’s flagship "Yangwu" ship management led Zhang Cheng hurriedly over to He Ruzhang and said, "My lord, what's going on? Is it going to start?"

He was so happy. The boss, who is usually useless, suddenly changed his personality this time. He thought he was going to sea to deal with the Gauls.

"Look at it! This is an order from the court!"

He Ruzhang handed the telegram to Zhang Cheng and said.

"Great! Great! The court should have got the exact news! I'm going to prepare!"

After reading it, Zhang Cheng was overjoyed and immediately ordered all personnel to prepare, and the fleet added shells, torpedoes, and coal.Set sail to occupy favorable terrain.

"What happened to these Qing people? Are they ready to fight at sea?"

Some foreigners don't know why, but some have already faintly noticed something.

"Look! Fleet! A fleet is coming!"

With the shout of one person, everyone turned their eyes to the sea, and at the end of the water and sky, a few plumes of smoke rose, and several warships lined up to rush into the military port, and on these warships it was the Gallic flag...
