New Ming Empire mixed in America

After the main battleships of the Pacific Fleet arrived at the outskirts of the battlefield, Cheng Yuanliang began to order to advance at full speed.

Although the Pacific Fleet is nothing in the world, it can be said to be invincible in the Pacific.

Hmm... Actually, there are not many countries that have fleets in the Pacific.

Later, the Beiyang Fleet of the puppet Qing Dynasty relied on Zhenyuan, and the two ironclad ships of Zhiyuan were able to tremble in the Far East, let alone the Pacific Fleet of the New Ming Empire.

The generation gap of naval guns is not easy to make up for. First, other countries must develop cheap materials that can replace copper as the gun body.

Now the largest industry in the Xinming Empire is steel plants and supporting upstream and downstream factories.

Therefore, it may take other countries more than ten years to catch up with the Xinming Empire's current technology in steel in a short period of time.

Not to mention Southeast Asia, which is crowded with the Dutch fleet, the British fleet, the American Northern Alliance fleet, and the third fleet.

There used to be a Spanish fleet, but since the Spanish in Manila were made a Jingguan, the remaining Spanish fleet has stayed in the Qing Dynasty and will not come back.

Southeast Asia may seem crowded, but the largest warship here may be the "Ellercourt" that led the British.

But what kind of waves can a fourth-level ship make?

The Pacific Fleet has two new ironclad warships with rotating turrets, two second-level ironclad battleships, four third-level ironclad battleships, one fourth-level ironclad battleship, fifty gunboats, and several supply ships.

With this configuration, you can travel around the Black Sea, let alone Southeast Asia.

The Pacific Fleet reunited safely half an hour later, and then made some repairs before heading towards Bandar Seri Bega Bay.

In fact, Cheng Yuanliang wanted to divide his forces to pursue him, but Li Mingqi refused.

Now Daiying is very sensitive about the issue of the Xinming Empire. If he pursues it and annihilates the opponent's Far East Fleet.

What if Daiying thinks that Li Mingqi has thoughts about India?

At that time, Dai Ying would definitely dispatch warships from the Black Sea to deal with the New Ming Empire. In that case, Li Mingqi would have a headache in the protracted war.

Li Mingqi was not afraid of fighting, and he was not afraid even if he faced off against Dai Ying.

But if such a situation really happens, it is estimated that the Pacific Fleet will really not be able to save it.

Without the Pacific Fleet, the New Ming Empire would lose its maritime immigration routes in the Pacific before new warships are produced.

This level is just right now. Since the Far East Fleet led by Ying is timid, there is no need to pursue them and kill them all.

It's not that Li Mingqi doesn't want to, but it's not that time yet.

What if because of that poor place in India, Dai Ying is allowed to reorganize a war like Crimea?

In that battle, Tsarist Russia lost its underpants. Post-war statistics showed that the army that killed Russia lost 522,000 troops, the Ottoman Empire lost 96,000 troops, and Britain and France each suffered nearly 100,000 military casualties.

This battle left various countries nursing wounds for several years, mainly because Tsarist Russia suffered more and vomited more blood.

Over the years, even Tsarist Russia has quietly built a Far East fleet (eh? The name is a bit confusing...)

Not to mention Britain and France. They announced like crazy that they wanted to build iron-clad ironclad ships. Although Dai Ying shouted to follow suit, their actions were a bit slow.

But their wooden warships did not stop building, and private shipyards also began to explore the manufacturing technology of ironclad ships.

After this year, the defense-class ironclads will be launched.

Although the defense-class ironclad ship is a rather tricky project, it at least illustrates the attitude of the British Admiralty.

It is estimated that after the detailed news of the Pacific Fleet's defeat of Spain spreads, the enthusiasm of various countries for the production of ironclads will greatly increase.

It is estimated that within a few years, the sea will be dominated by ironclad ships.

Although the ironclad ships at this time all had a side-gun layout, which was similar to a wooden sail warship, they still used the artillery deck style.

But there is no guarantee that Daiying will not copy the plan of installing a rotating turret on the deck of the Xinming Empire's ironclad ship.

Well, strictly speaking, the first ironclad ship with a rotating turret should be counted as the Northern Federation of the United States, but the turret that relies on human power to rotate is really not on the table.

Well, there is only one purpose in saying all this, that is, Li Mingqi did not let go of leading the British fleet just to find excitement for himself, but because the international situation did not allow it.

This place is too close to India. Without the Far East Fleet, the British will not feel safe. The world structure will definitely change by then.

Once Britain and Britain evacuate the warships from the Black Sea, Tsarist Russia's Black Sea Fleet will definitely be rebuilt.

And Tsarist Russia becoming stronger is also not what Li Mingqi wants to see.

Although Li Mingqi does not want to do things according to the rules set by others, under actual circumstances, it is inevitable that there will be some impact.

Li Mingqi can roam freely in the Americas because it is not the center of the world, Europe, and he is not afraid of irritating those countries in Europe.

But the Far East is really too sensitive, especially Asan’s place.

You must know that a large part of Daiying's servant army is Asan. Daiying attaches great importance to these consumables that are so cheap that they can compete with the serfs of Tsarist Russia.

Although Li Mingqi didn't want to destroy the Far East Fleet led by Ying, Li Mingqi was not prepared to let go of those bullies from the Brooke Dynasty.

Li Mingqi had no problem with massacring the Twelve Banks Branch. After all, most of the Chinese businessmen who can do big business overseas these days are not good people.

Li Mingqi did not have time to distinguish whether overseas Chinese businessmen had Chinese blood on their hands, so he could only classify them as neutral in one broad stroke.

But the guys from the Brooke Dynasty should absolutely not do it. They should not massacre the Chinese civilians in their territory.

This touches on Li Mingqi's reverse scale.

You can say that Li Mingqi is a bit hypocritical and making a fuss out of a molehill. He thinks that these Chinese can only be regarded as pseudo-Qing people and there is no need to go to war for them.

But Li Mingqi is an angry youth, and he has been an angry youth in his past life and this life.

Of course, Li Mingqi in his previous life was not an ignorant and angry young man. He believed that everything in China was the best.

But when it came to the issues faced by the Chinese, or Chinese workers, during this period, Li Mingqi's thoughts as an angry youth were very serious.

His philosophy is to pay with blood!

Without any discussion, Li Mingqi, the guy who was stained with Chinese blood, would take revenge one by one and pay back double the amount.

Because what Li Mingqi admired was the famous saying of the Han Dynasty: Anyone who openly offends the powerful Han will be punished no matter how far away!

It is still the same now. Anyone who offends China will be punished no matter how far away!

At this time, the merchant ships from various countries docked in Bandar Seri Begawan were not yet aware of the upcoming changes, and a small-scale battle in the outer sea was still a secret to them.

However, this tranquility was broken after the boat from the Kingdom of Brunei ran back.

When the battle first started, Brunei's envoy still looked like he was watching a show.

But when the main force of the Pacific Fleet appeared, they could no longer laugh.

When they chose to take sides just now, they chose to side with the Dutch without hesitation, but now the result is that the Dutch have become the weaker side, which is a bit of a trap.

Therefore, seeing that the situation was not good, the envoy from Brunei returned to Bandar Seri Begawan by boat and cannon, wanting to report the matter to his king.

At least the king should be prepared to face the accusations from the Xinming Empire.

Facing the menacing Pacific Fleet, no one who has seen its scale would want to be their enemy.
