Chapter 154: Military Visit (Part 1)(2/2)
"Then it will have to happen tomorrow..." Liu Yiming looked at the big and small objects in the telescope and grinned.
"Ah?" Gu Fan was a little confused. Did I say something wrong?

"Nothing, just move forward at full speed and give them a showdown! How about that?" Liu Yiming suggested.
Gu Fan can refuse at all. This is Nanhua's constitution. Let professional people do professional things. If you don't understand, don't interfere or talk nonsense.
You can have free speech, but you can't talk nonsense in this name, it's disgusting.
"Okay!" Gu Fan thought for a while and nodded. It might as well be a deterrent. Although he doesn't know what the next action will be, there is always a reason. Showing force is also a reason, and it is the biggest reason!
"Order! Increase pressure and ventilation, move forward at full speed! Let the Chang'an follow suit." Gu Fan turned around and gave the order.
Increasing speed also requires a process, so Gu Fan chose to turn left and circle around to approach the warship in the distance.
Boom~ A large amount of air enters the boiler, the coal burns red, and the boiler pressure continues to rise.
Rumble, rumble, as the air pressure increases, the roar of the steam engine becomes louder and louder, and the ship gradually speeds up.
…
"Sir, that should be Nanhua's warship." Yang Yonglin said to the supervisor Lin Taizeng.

"I can't see clearly, but there are two identical 10,000-ton warships. Apart from Britain, it's also South China." Lin Taizeng said it was so complicated that he couldn't explain why his small island country could raise money to buy warships.
And what about the Celestial Kingdom?
The most worrying thing is that after Japan's defeat, it increased its orders for warships. After Nanhua once again increased its strength, it was uncertain who this ship would be used to fight!
"They seem to be accelerating?" Yang Yonglin said uncertainly.
"Can't see clearly, it's too far away, has it turned?" Lin Tai once exclaimed.
Although it is far away and cannot be seen clearly, the steering flexibility can be seen roughly.
After more than ten minutes, both sides were finally able to use telescopes to see clearly the flags of both sides.
…
"There is no admiral's flag. The flag of the commander-in-chief should be Zhenyuan." Gu Fan said after reading it. This was all knowledge he had gained.
"There must be an old friend next to me." Liu Yiming looked at the familiar warship.
"Is the speed limit reached now?"

"Not yet. The speed is 207 knots. During the trial sea voyage, the maximum speed was 228 knots. We have to wait for a while." Gu Fan looked at it.
The two Changluo-class ships have the same basic configuration. The Changan has a normal horsepower of 15,180 horsepower, a maximum horsepower of 20,020 horsepower, and a maximum speed of 231 knots.
The Luo Jing has 19,860 horsepower and a maximum speed of 228 knots. To be honest, the British high-pressure ventilation is a real bug.
"Zhenyuan and Zhiyuan, it's a pity." Liu Yiming nodded and looked at the field of view in the telescope.
…
"So fast! Faster than Zhiyuan!" Lin Taizeng opened his mouth in surprise.
"I heard that it is the latest armored cruiser. It has eight 15mm rapid-fire guns, firing seven or eight times per minute, and four 23.5mm naval guns, firing three times every two minutes. The intensity of firepower is amazing.
." Yang Yonglin praised.
"Coming!" Lin Taizeng listened and watched Nanhua's warships rushing towards him.
It is slightly longer than Zhenyuan and not that wide. You can see the main and secondary guns, as well as densely packed small-caliber rapid-fire cannons. The layout is a bit strange.
The Luojing rushed until it was only 1,200 meters away before turning the rudder.

"Twenty left rudder!" Gu Fan ordered.
The warship began to turn in an instant, drawing a huge arc. (The turning distance of the warship is quite large, and the faster it gets, the bigger it becomes.)
"Amazing skills!" Lin Taizeng couldn't help but exclaimed as he watched a nearly 10,000-ton warship rush toward you at high speed and then pass by.
"Send a signal to welcome Chief Nanhua to visit, fire a salute!" After finishing his praise, Lin Tai had arranged a welcome ceremony.
"Reply to him, it's a great honor to be with the Beiyang Fleet." Liu Yiming held back this sentence for a long time, and it was full of profound meaning...
Gu Fan didn't feel anything was wrong until the Luojing reduced its speed to 12 knots and found that it was out of touch with Zhenyuan. He seemed to understand what the Prime Minister meant when he said it would not arrive until tomorrow...
I beg for all kinds of votes, and for collecting and reading, thank you very much!
