The sun was a little too hot. Wei Chenghong thought for a moment and felt a little nervous. He had never given a speech in public before.
"It's almost time. Be careful." His phone vibrated, reminding Wei Chenghong that it was almost time.
After coughing a few times, Wei Chenghong felt that he could give it a try in order to get the reward. He couldn't make a fool of himself. He would only know the result after trying.
What Wei Chenghong didn't expect was that Tatsumi gave him a loudspeaker and said,"Godfather!"
Wei Chenghong took a deep breath after weighing the loudspeaker. For the sake of the reward, he decided to give it his all.
Standing by the guardrail of the Prideful Sky, Wei Chenghong picked up the loudspeaker and said,"Good morning ~ Good afternoon.”
Wei Chenghong's words attracted everyone's attention. Soon, the noisy crowd gathered to see what Wei Chenghong had to say.
It was inevitable to be a little nervous, but as long as he overcame the difficulties ahead, he would slowly get used to it.
"Do you see the big guy under my feet? It's called the Proud Sky. I gave it a name. Isn't it nice? I know that everyone wants to come on board to take a look, but it's not possible for now. The next time we come, we'll open it for everyone to see.”
The people below started making a ruckus, and many students in front requested to board the ship for a tour.
"Don't be noisy, especially the few of you. Battleships are not a museum. It's not something you can see whenever you want. This is a national treasure, the largest ship in the history of China.”
"Hey, who are you?" A female student shouted at Wei Chenghong.
"Good question. I'm Wei Chenghong, the little White Dragon in the waves that can turn the clouds and rain upside down. Do you students really want to come up? If you call me good brother, I'll let you come on board to see.”Those students were probably from a girls 'school. Wei Chenghong was a young man, and his manly nature made him want to show off in front of these young girls.
The smug Wei Chenghong's smile suddenly stopped. He turned his head stiffly like a machine and saw the smiling face of Tatsumi Hengshan, who was pinching his back with her left hand.
"Ahem, just kidding. The displacement of this warship is about 26000 tons, which is four times the weight of Dingyuan and Zhenyuan. The main cannon has a caliber of 14 inches (356 mm), and there are sixteen six-inch secondary cannons. Overall, the firepower is still very strong.”After introducing the situation of the Prideful Sky, Wei Chenghong realized that the mission was still not completed. It seemed that this was not going to work. He had to use some powerful medicine.
The atmosphere was heated up, but the atmosphere was very calm. This meant that Wei Chenghong's eloquence was not good enough to convince those people.
"My fellow countrymen, Huabei is in danger, and Shanghai is in danger. At this moment, we must work together to defeat the Japanese imperialists. At the same time, I will lead the fleet to fight the Japanese pirates to the death. "Tell them that if we Chinese don't become slaves to a subjugated country, let alone three months, even if it's three years, thirty years, or three hundred years, they won't be able to make us surrender. Our Chinese nation will never surrender. Long live the Chinese nation.”
Wei Chenghong's last sentence was very loud. He resonated with the citizens present. In a city like Shanghai, where foreigners ran amok and bullied the citizens, no one wanted their country to become stronger than them. At this moment, they all responded to Wei Chenghong's words.
" Long live the Chinese nation! Down with the Japanese imperialists!"
" Long live the Chinese nation! Down with the Japanese imperialists!"
" Long live the Chinese nation! Down with the Japanese imperialists!"
Wave after wave of slogans rang out and began to spread, causing the faces of the Japanese spies hidden in the crowd to turn ugly. This person had to be eliminated. This was their only thought at the moment.
" Congratulations to player Wei Chenghong for completing the speech mission. You have received 500 marines, one female adjutant, 10,000 public experience points, and 1,000,000 silver coins.”
The system notification made Wei Chenghong heave a sigh of relief. With experience, ships, and gold coins, it seemed like he could add a new ship. However, when he thought of the Japanese coalition fleet, his joy was immediately doused by a bucket of cold water.
It was estimated that the main force of the Japanese navy had arrived. Battleships, aircraft carriers, cruisers, destroyer, and torpedoes added up to hundreds of ships. It was not something that Wei Chenghong could shake now. The only thing Wei Chenghong could do was to slowly develop his own fleet. If he went head-on with the Japanese navy, it was very likely that he would return to the situation before the liberation overnight.
The Japanese Navy couldn't afford to lose, and neither could Wei Chenghong, because losing might cost him his life.
Since he had received the reward, Wei Chenghong left and said to Sun Wanghua," Prepare to pull the anchor and set off.”
Following Wei Chenghong's order, the sailors began to board the ship. Wei Chenghong was preparing to light up the ship. With nearly 30,000 experience points, he seemed to be able to light up a new ship. However, after thinking for a moment, he gave up. Even if he lit up the ship, he would not have any silver coins to buy it. It was better to save money to buy a ship first.
He counted his assets: 27560 EXP, 1,350,000 silver coins, 1675 gold coins, a female adjutant gift bag, and a 500-man Land Combat Team gift bag.
Silver coins weren't enough to buy an Auspicious Phoenix, and it wasn't enough to buy a plane. After thinking about it, Wei Chenghong decided to buy two ships, a Class IV aircraft carrier, and a Class IV cruiser. In total, the amount of silver coins was enough. It was only about one million, but the maintenance cost would definitely increase. Wei Chenghong found that the maintenance cost of the aircraft carrier was higher than that of the battleship, and the destroyer was the lowest.
The Prideful Sky began to ignite, and countless people sent him off. At the same time, the Japanese spies also spread the news that in a few days, the huge Japanese fleet would arrive in Shanghai. At that time, they hoped that these Chinese people would still be able to laugh. These Japanese spies indeed had the right to be arrogant. The navy was the treasure of the Japanese Empire. It was the hard work of countless people that made it what it was today.
"Buying two ship slots, 600 gold coins, one Fengxiang class aircraft carrier, one Ball Mill class cruiser, 1,050,000 silver coins, are you sure?”the system asked.
"Yes, we don't need too many battleships. The aircraft carriers are the king. Also, are there no submarines?”Whether it was Yamato or Musashi, they were both sunk by planes in the end. It could be seen how important aircraft carriers were. They were the most important warships to maintain sea control.
Now, Wei Chenghong realized that there were no submarines for sale. This was illogical.
"I'm sorry, the system doesn't have any information on submarines.”There were no submarines in the Warship World, so there were no submarines in the system. In other words, all Wei Chenghong could do was increase his anti-submarine efforts.
Fortunately, the anti-submarine capabilities of the cruisers and destroyer were not bad. What he did not know was that the anti-submarine capabilities of the Japanese warships were not very strong. This was due to the problem of technology, which was far behind that of the D, Y, and M countries.
At this moment, the Prideful Sky had already gathered with the fleet and was heading out of the East China Sea. Wei Chenghong knew that if he didn't escape now, he would be completely annihilated when he was blocked by the Japanese coalition fleet. The battleships Nagato, Lu Ao, and the aircraft carriers Chicheng and Kaga were all much better than Wei Chenghong's warships.
Although the Auspicious Phoenix-class aircraft carrier had only been launched at the end of this year, it was inferior to the Red Castle in all aspects. The number of aircraft on the carrier was even more inferior. The two aircraft carriers added together had more than 160 aircraft on the carrier. As a Auspicious Phoenix-class aircraft carrier, the Magic City was only a light aircraft carrier. It could not compare to the heavy aircraft carriers Red Castle and Kaga.
It's over, it's the second volume
