Chapter 739 Arrival in Batavia
Governor Mandrake had been panicked before. After all, what Li Shaoyi did in Hong Kong made everyone have a new understanding of Li Shaoyi, that is, this person is completely different from other Chinese people. If you dare to touch him, he will chop off your entire hand.
But after the fleet arrived today, he suddenly realized that this navy was nothing special. Such excessive demands made the entire fleet unprepared and lined up in a long line to enter the port, and the fleet actually agreed.
If it were the fleets of other Western countries, they would have to fight with you and ask for various guarantees, such as turning the cannons on the hilltops so that they could not point at our fleet.
But Li Shaoyi's fleet did not say a word, just asked some questions about navigation marks, and then began to move in.
"Your Excellency, Governor, the people at the mountaintop observatory report that not all of their fleet has entered the port. Only a portion has. The rest of the fleet continues to roam the open sea and has dispersed. It is no longer within our observation range."
One of his men ran over breathlessly and answered the phone without wasting a second.
"what?"
After hearing the news, Governor Mandrake's face changed. He thought that after all of Li Shaoyi's fleet came in, they would be under the control of our artillery, and they would not be able to make any waves at that time. But now part of the fleet did not come in?
"How many fleets did they bring in total?"
When Governor Mandlake asked this question, he realized that he had made a huge mistake. He regarded Li Shaoyi as the main enemy, but he didn't know how many fleets he had. The officials around him were also confused. As the governor of Windmill Country, how could you make such a low-level mistake?
This question was naturally answered by the military personnel, but after the Governor finished speaking, the military personnel were dumbfounded. Come to think of it, it made sense. When the fleet entered the port just now, these military personnel did not raise any objections, which meant that they thought the fleet only had these few ships.
"What are you still standing there for? Go check it out right now. If you can't find out, I'll tie you to the propeller and hang you."
Governor Mandrake said angrily that it had just begun and he realized that his people had made such a big mistake.
"Stop right there! What the hell are you investigating? Ask the foreign personnel stationed in other countries."
Seeing that some people were really preparing to investigate, Governor Mandrake stopped them. We did not investigate this matter, but other countries have personnel stationed in Pujiang. When the fleet set out, there must have been records. This is not a secret news.
When the cruiser Dingyuan was about to dock at the port, Governor Mandrake finally realized how many fleets had arrived. In addition to a cruiser, two destroyers, and two transport ships, there were even more warships, and no one knew where they were. Governor Mandrake was sweating profusely. Could a backward agricultural country have brought out all its warships?
But soon, his subordinates told him not to worry about this matter, because at this moment in Li Shaoyi's island city naval base, some warships were still conducting overseas combat training, and passing merchant ships also took photos.
The Windmill Kingdom used to be the coachman of the sea, so its navy was extremely powerful. However, more than a hundred years after entering modern times, due to its small land area and lack of colonies, it fell behind in the competition for naval power. Now seeing Li Shaoyi's fleet, they are really envious.
Of course they were envious, but then they were afraid, because such a fleet could send all the fleets of their Windmill Country in the Far East into the sea.
In the past, when they bullied the Chinese, they regarded this as their highlight moment and even wanted to show off to others. But now, seeing the huge 10,000-ton cruiser in front of them, some people felt their scalps tingling. If they really had to settle accounts, they might not even have a intact place on their bodies. Thinking about what they had done in the past, it was really terrifying.
The surrounding artillery batteries have adjusted their directions and aimed at the Longguo warships that are entering the port. Before getting off the ship, Li Shaoyi looked at the gun muzzles on both sides without any fear. Our war correspondents are also very good at finding the angle so that Li Shaoyi's body forms a straight line with the enemy's gun muzzles.
The title has been thought of.
The old cannons from the 18th century could not stop our Marshal's advance.
When Li Shaoyi walked down the gangway of the warship, Governor Mandrake also sorted himself out and led his men to victory from south to north. No matter what he thought in his heart, he had to do his best on the surface, otherwise he would not understand the rules.
"Welcome Mr. Li and his fleet to visit Batavia."
Governor Mandrake extended his hand, and at the same time, the troops on the shore began to fire salutes to welcome the fleet from Dragon Kingdom.
"Thank you for your welcome, Your Excellency the Governor."
Li Shaoyi also responded with a smile, but all the reporters felt that there was a lot of tension between the two sides. Apart from the necessary diplomatic rhetoric, there seemed to be no extra words spoken.
"Commander Li, you are really here..."
President Chen of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce still had to be welcomed at the dock. He was standing in the third position on the left of Mandlake. After Li Shaoyi greeted the others, President Chen shook Li Shaoyi's hand tightly, his eyes filled with tears. On such a large dock, apart from President Chen, there was no other Chinese person to be found.
"It's all over, it's all over. President Chen, don't worry too much. Now that we're here, leave the things here to us."
Li Shaoyi spoke loudly and was heard by the translators of the neighboring Windmill Country. They quickly told the Governor and other senior officials what he had said. These people all looked unhappy, and some even gritted their teeth.
We're still standing here, and you've completely lost all your words. What do you mean by "I'll leave it to you"? What do you want to do with us? Is this the territory of your 72nd Army?
"Assemble, guns raised."
Before they could finish their talk, the marines from the Windmill Country in the distance had already begun to gather. Hundreds of soldiers took off the guns on their backs and aimed at the gangway of the transport ship.
"Mr. Li, according to our agreement, except for you and the accompanying diplomats, no one else is allowed to disembark without our permission..."
