Republic of China: Our great warlord has many children and many blessings

On the way to Tianjin, Shen Hao did not choose to take a cruise this time, but took a warship.

Although, the cost of warship travel is very high.

But Shen Hao is not short of money. Anthracite is enough for Shen Hao with his strength.

In this era, the technology of internal combustion engines was not yet mature, and naval warships of various countries basically still used coal-driven gas turbines.

It can be said that before and after World War I, the capital ships of various navies generally used coal-fired power. Once the naval fleet set off, the thick black smoke almost marked its position to the opponent.

Therefore, high-quality anthracite has become the favorite of navies of various countries. During the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese Navy's combined fleet chose British anthracite, which was expensive but had less soot.

On the contrary, due to internal corruption, the Russian Navy's expeditionary fleet used inferior Japanese coal. During the Battle of Tsushima, the Japanese Navy promptly observed the appearance of the Russian fleet based on the smoke column and seized the opportunity, which played an important role in winning the naval battle. effect.

Standing on the deck, the warship was emitting thick black smoke.

Looking at the waves, Shen Hao was still in a very good mood.

Currently, there are less than ten warships stationed in Guangdong, that is, the warships controlled by Shen Hao.

There is only one cruiser, and the others are gunboats and destroyers. Four of them are gunboats and training ships. In short, they are there, but they are not strong enough.

At present, Yuan Datou's entire navy only has one battleship, which was from the Qing Dynasty. This battleship has been damaged and cannot be used.

In other words, there is not a single battleship capable of actual combat.

First Fleet: four cruisers 907:

Haiqi, Hairong, Haichen, and Haichio

; four destroyers: Feiying, Jiankang, Yuzhang, and Tongan; two gunboats: Yongfeng and Yongxiang; two commander-in-chief ships: Wu Feng, Lian Jing

One transport ship: Fu'an

Yuan Datou's other fleets are also of similar strength, most of them are gunboats.

Shen Hao's cruiser is not without its advantages, at least it is faster than a battleship.

Unlike battleships, which are huge, powerful and heavy capital ships.

Can launch a fierce attack on the enemy fleet. Cruisers, on the other hand, are relatively small and have weak firepower. They mostly rely on rapid maneuvering and long-range attacks as their main means.

The cost of each cruise is also ridiculously high.

Warships are a must. The reason why Britain can be said to never set is because of its powerful navy.

Shen Hao also wants a powerful navy, but this thing is more expensive than the army.

Now I simply don’t have the strength and can’t afford it.

In the past, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Beiyang Navy of the Qing Army was known as the number one in Asia.

The first reason is that the Manchus were quite wealthy at that time and could purchase a large number of advanced foreign warships; the second reason was that the enemy Japanese Navy was just starting out and was established from scratch and was not very strong.

Therefore, the Beiyang Navy was not significantly weaker than Japan for a long time. It even had two ironclads (the predecessor of battleships) that

Japan did not have. In the end, it could only be said to be embarrassing that it could not defeat Japan.

Since the Republic of China, Yuan Datou has also wanted to develop a navy, but where does the money come from?

The main problem is that the navy is extremely short of military expenditures.

Burdened with heavy foreign debts, including the Boxer Indemnity, Yuan Datou's Beiyang government is currently struggling to meet basic government expenditures and military maintenance expenses.

Yuan Datou's Beiyang Navy, taken together, is not as good as one-tenth of Japan's.

Not to mention Yuan Datou, even if Baldhead escaped before Wanwan, there was no decent navy in the country, it was just a decoration.

At present, it can even be said that as long as Japan deploys one battleship and three heavy cruisers, it can definitely wipe out the entire Beiyang navy.

Shen Hao wants some battleships of his own right now.

However, at present, battleships are not as practical as submarines in Shen Hao's opinion.

Everything is possible. It is Yuan Datou who helps Shen Hao, but it is also Yuan Datou who hinders Shen Hao's development.

You can't break up yet.

It’s not good for anyone.

For a time, countless pictures flashed through Shen Hao's mind.

At this time, Jin Ruizhi and Bai Xiuzhu came over.

Jin Ruizhi on the side gave him a look, and Bai Xiuzhu brought a military coat and put it on Shen Hao.

Feeling the heavy weight on his shoulders, Shen Hao looked back and saw Bai Xiuzhu and Jin Ruizhi standing behind him with smiles on their faces.

Facing the sea breeze, the hair of the two women was blown wildly.

Shen Hao smiled, opened his arms, and embraced the two girls.

It's almost October now and the weather is getting cooler.

"It's windy outside, why did you come out?"

"It’s so boring in there, but if you’re not around, come out and get some air," Bai Xiuzhu said with a smile;

"It’s almost time to reach Tianjin. It’s almost as soon as we get to Tianjin."

Just as if the Wuhan Bridge had not been built, it would be impossible to go directly north by train. The only option is to take a boat.

We arrived in Tianjin first, and then took the train to Beijing.

"Mr. Jin, when you arrive in the capital, can you come with me to my home?" Jin Ruizhi said with a smile;

"This is of course, after all, I am the son-in-law of the Jin family, and I must meet my father-in-law no matter what.

Besides, my father-in-law is still the head of the country and holds a high position. How can I not pay him a visit? (ceag)？"

"Well, if my father gives you trouble, you can't get angry," Jin Ruizhi said cautiously; her marriage to Shen Hao was still hidden from her family. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

On weekdays, Jin Quan has a very tolerant attitude towards their children, and most of them support their own ideas about marriage.

However, Jin Quan has never encountered such a thing before letting his daughter marry someone else as a concubine.

Jin Ruizhi She was the first person in the Jin family to do this.

When she thought about the pressure she would face when she went back, a trace of worry appeared on Jin Ruizhi's face. Shen Hao lowered his head and kissed her forehead, comforting her:"Don't worry, everything will be fine with me." problematic.

I'll take care of the big things"

"Well." Jin Ruizhi nodded slightly and buried her head in Shen Hao's arms, greedily absorbing the fragrance of Shen Hao.

Bai Xiuzhu on the side pouted and said:"As for me, I am following you unclearly, so I can't live without you. Let's give you a title."

Shen Hao smiled and hung up Bai Xiuzhu's nose, and joked:"Then I will give you the title of my personal maid, do you want it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Hao was attacked by Bai Xiuzhu. Wait with a pink fist and give him a severe beating

"Disgusting, I don’t want it. I must also be your wife, so I don’t want to be a maid."

"Haha, it depends on your performance. If you perform well, after arriving in the capital, I will formally propose marriage to your brother, Mr. Bai," Shen Hao said;

"What if the performance is not good?"

Bai Xiuzhu's fair cheeks were covered with red clouds, and she looked at Shen Hao shyly.

During this time, Bai Xiuzhu also accepted her fate.

Shen Hao is the kind of playboy who falls in love with everyone he meets.

Basically. He couldn't give her the exclusive favor she wanted.

Bai Xiuzhu also thought about leaving Shen Hao, but after trying hard for a long time, she found that she simply couldn't do it.

Every time she thought about never seeing Shen Hao again, her heart felt like It was like being roasted on a fire, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't breathe.

The whole person seemed to have fallen into an abyss, and it was painful to death.

Her life and her thoughts had all been placed on Shen Hao.

If Shen Hao Without her, Bai Xiuzhu probably felt that there was no point in living.

Since she couldn't resist, Bai Xiuzhu also chose to accept her fate.

Ever since she thought about it, Bai Xiuzhu felt extremely relaxed.

Although she occasionally gets jealous, she has been She became rational.

Shen Hao looked at Bai Xiuzhu's beautiful little face, full of expectations. He outlined her chin with his fingers and said with a smile:"If you don't perform well, just force her to marry you.""

""I hate it." Bai Xiuzhu felt sweet in her heart, and her almond-shaped eyes smiled like crescent moons.

For a moment, Shen Hao was a little moved and kissed her directly.

Seeing this scene, Jin Ruizhi was not angry, but let go of Shen Hao's arms. , leaving this opportunity of solitude to Bai Xiuzhu.

The setting sun gradually turned the sea into orange.

Facing the sea breeze, Jin Ruizhi smoothed her messy hair with her hands and leaned on the railing.

Opening her hands and eyes She closed her eyes slightly, enjoying the relaxation of the sea breeze on her face.

This feeling is very comfortable and beautiful.

In the past, Jin Ruizhi also felt that only those who marry a dedicated person would be happy.

Because Jin Quan has several concubines, Since she was a child at home, Jin Ruizhi has seen the scheming lives of her aunts and the resentment of dissatisfied desires.

She felt that if she lived like this in the future, falling into endless resentment and pity every day, it would be too uncomfortable.

Later, Impulsively, she established a link with Shen Hao in the room.

She also understood why Shen Hao had so many women.

And why so many women weren't jealous anymore.

Ma Dan, this Shen Hao is a beast, he won't eat it at all Not full.

Later, Jin Ruizhi felt a little lucky.
