Other Western media exclaimed, "The lion in the East has awakened, and Napoleon's language will come true!"

At the same time, Western experts began to study the battle reports and information carefully. They found that the strong protection and firepower of the Dingyuan ship were the key to it. At the same time, they also discovered the Achilles’ heel of the Dingyuan ship’s slow speed. There was no Dingyuan ship’s victory. The probability is less than 30%.

The Qing imperial navy's good tactical use, timing of launching, and excellent naval warfare qualities are also recognized by them.

"The quality of the navy of the Qing Dynasty is comparable to ours!"

"The rise of another naval power!"

"Awakening of the Eastern Dragon!"

Of course, this refers to the quality of the navy, not naval strength. Recognition belongs to recognition. They believe that naval strength can already be ranked among the top five powers, and is comparable to Italy.

But the main forces of the first four countries are enough to crush him, which is the advantage of warships.

If there is no powerful firepower of the "Dingyuan" ship, then Gaul's victory is inevitable, but unfortunately there are not so many ifs in the world!

The power of the Dingyuan ship greatly stimulated the naval departments of various countries, and they requested the R&D departments and shipyards to make more and larger battlefields.

Geely country has launched the "Dreadnought" plan ahead of schedule. In fact, Geely country already has a "Geely Fleisish White" class warship with a displacement of 11 thousand tons and is equipped with four 16-inch guns. It can be described as terrifying, but Geely country Being dissatisfied with him means that his artillery is front-rifled, not only the rate of fire is slow, but also because of the tightness, it is also the power of the breech-lined 13-inch artillery, and his speed is too slow.

This time can be said to belong to the early days of the pre-dreadnought era. It originally needed some over 15,000-ton battleships. Ten years later, they would consider the design of 20,000-ton battleships, but Dingyuan’s performance accelerated them. This pace.

Their current steam turbine development has gradually matured, and they can build a truly invincible battleship in five years, so they are named Intrepid.It is designed to have a displacement of 21,000 tons and a speed of 18 knots or more.

Galudin Tun plans to start with a design displacement of 19,000 tons

The Nassau-class plan of the Will Army was launched, with a design displacement of 18,000 tons...

More importantly, this naval battle had a profound political impact.

"How could the great Gaul lose to those monkeys."

"Can that inferior race defeat our army?"

"What the hell is the Navy doing!"

After receiving the navy's telegram, Ruferi sat sadly and clutched his hair with both hands. He knew that he was over and Gaul would not let him go.Novels www.xiaos8.com

After the news of the loss of the naval battle spread in Gaul, it caused huge repercussions. People took to the streets holding high banners and slogans shouting "Down with Ferri! Ferri stepped down!" The demonstrations and riots continued to ferment.

Between countless hospitals and their backstage, they began to mobilize the parliament to file a case of no confidence in the Ruferi cabinet.

Gaul’s political system is that the prime minister directly organizes the cabinet. Once the prime minister steps down, everyone else will get out of office, so this time we will mention the impeachment of the entire cabinet.

Ruferi’s policy of compromising with the Willing Forces and expanding outwards was very correct at the time. Letting go and the powerful Willing Forces smashed to their deaths, doing strategic defenses, and expanding outwards to obtain more resources. Opportunity and the army of will decisive battle.

However, what the people of the lower classes thought was to take back Alsace and Lorraine, which were cut off by the Will Army, and quickly defeat the Will Army.

At the upper level, only a small number of members of the Gaul parliament are supported by arms capitalists.

Most of the members represent the interests of other capitalists. Gaul has carried out military operations in the Balkans, Africa, Asia, and South America. Apart from achieving greater results in Africa and Asia, all others are unfinished.The sequelae of a butt.

Now even Annan, who was very optimistic, has a problem. The huge military expenditure can't bring them benefits, and the capitalists will naturally not support him.

Originally, if the war were won, the people would be happy, and the capitalists would be able to benefit from the newly acquired land.But when the war is lost, these contradictions will be irreconcilable.

Gaul’s Prime Minister Ruferi was forced to resign and the cabinet was dissolved.Ruferi Securities fell.

Ruferi originally relied on the strong suppression of the Lebanese commune movement to gain great political prestige, but now his downfall has caused the originally extinguished flame to start to burn again, and the real Gaul has fallen into turmoil.

Berlin.

Li Fengbao, the minister in the four countries today, was extremely excited. Before the news of the Gaul naval battle came, the soldiers of the Will had a friendly attitude towards him, but he could feel the contempt emanating from his bones.

He was polite to him only from the perspective of money and a gentlemanly demeanor.

And now the soldiers of Will have begun to recognize the country behind him.

"Finally I can see these people from the General Staff Headquarters of the Will Army. We must send those two warships back quickly!"

He thought with excitement that Lin Yongsheng and the two had come to him several times after hearing the news of the development of the domestic and Gaolu army, they just wanted to drive the warship back.

However, even though the Army of Will verbally agreed, after sending away Dingyuan, they still found various excuses to delay, and even once the ship had already sailed out, it drove back.Otherwise Zhenyuan and Weiyuan could almost catch up with this naval battle.

Today, the Chief of Staff of the Will Army, Mao Qi, sent someone to inform him that the several meeting requests he submitted were allowed.

Moqi was the Marshal of the Will Army in the Franco-Prussian War. He directed the battle of the Will Army defeating Gaul and Austro-Hungary. In terms of prestige, in addition to the emperor of the Will Army, even Bismarck is ranked behind him, so as long as this person is persuaded, the possibility of Bismarck's opposition is very low. ..
