Wei Chenghong's actions immediately caused chaos at the dock. Some foreign civilian ships that couldn't avoid it in time were directly hit and sunk. Because there were people in the water all around, the foreign powers and the Japanese warships didn't dare to open fire. Because the Chenghong was flying the Japanese military flag, the captains of the Japanese warships on the scene didn't look too good. The information on the Hashirashi was no secret. It was an inshore gunboat designed by the Great Japanese Empire. It was said that it had just been built not long ago. What was going on?
There was no doubt that the ship was made in Japan. The style and cannons were the same. The experienced captain could tell that it was a 120mm/45mm 10-year cannon. It was a real Japanese cannon.
"Baka, chase after them. It must be a spy's ship, trying to stir up a conflict between us and the West.”The captain of the Oi, Daisuke Tanogi, was the naval commander here. He suspected that the ship was a spy from China, trying to provoke conflict between them and the West. After all, the Japanese were basically isolated internationally, especially because of the Manchuria incident.
"Running away after acting tough, how f * cking exciting.”Seeing the mess at Songhu Port, Wei Chenghong laughed loudly. I'll teach you a lesson in the future and let you have a taste of what a giant cannon is like.
The pilot slammed the rudder hard, allowing Chenghong to get close to a 10,000-ton ocean-going ship next to it. This way, the other warships would not dare to attack their ship. After leaving Songhu Port, they ran towards the East Sea. Now that the dock was in a mess, those warships wanted to chase them but were powerless.
The captains of the warships were all veterans, so they could naturally see what Wei Chenghong and the others were trying to do. However, the dock was in chaos now, and most of the warships were anchored inside. There were not many warships in the open sea, and there were many civilian ships. They could only watch the other party escape.
However, they wanted to seek compensation from the Japanese. After all, the ship was flying the Japanese flag. With someone to take the blame, they did not care who the real culprit was.
"Bye-bye." Wei Chenghong laughed loudly. Those warships were all stuck in the port. Now, because of his disorderly movements, the sea route was in a mess. Countless people fell into the water. Just saving these people was enough to give the other party no time to pursue.
"The battle has ended. You have completed the mission and received 200 public experience points and 3000 silver coins. Obtained 200 I Grade Warship EXP, 5000 Silver Coins, 100,000 Silver Coins, 1 Skill Point.”The notification on his phone let Wei Chenghong know that he had finally taken the first step. He had succeeded.
With experience, he could light up a higher-level ship. With silver coins, he could buy a higher-level ship. With a higher-level ship, he could build his own fleet and become a real naval general. He would not be an armchair strategist in the game.
Lighting up the Tsukuma class cruiser only required 350 experience points. Now that he had 200 public experience points and 200 level 1 ship experience points, it was enough.
Wei Chenghong excitedly opened the battleship technology line on his phone, and his finger also tapped on the Zhumo class.
"Do you want to spend 350 experience points to develop a Chimo-class cruiser?”The system asked. It needed Wei Chenghong's confirmation.
"I'm sure."
After getting Wei Chenghong's answer, the system quickly lit up the icon of the Chikuma class cruiser. The only part of the Hashi class that was not lit up was the cannon control system, which required 100 experience points and increased the range by 10%.
Wei Chenghong had 108000 silver coins in total, and he would need 6.90,000 silver coins to buy a Zhumo class cruiser. He would need a crew and a basic hull, but he didn't have any warship parts.
Seeing that there was a ship in his second position, Wei Chenghong was in a good mood. Now that the Chenghong had left everyone's sight, he immediately released the Chimo-class cruiser.

Compared to the gunboat Hashi, this cruiser was a warship that could sail long distances. However, in this era, this type of ship was considered an outdated warship. In the Japanese Navy, it was basically retired.
Wei Chenghong came to the huge cruiser in Chenghong's small boat. The 1,000-ton Chenghong was obviously not as good as this ship. When Wei Chenghong climbed onto the warship, the sailors had already gathered. From the captain to the sailors, everyone came to welcome him.
"Salute, salute completed." The sailors were wearing sailor uniforms, which could be distinguished from the officers. From their age, one could roughly guess their position. Like the vice-captain of the Chenghong, the captain of this uncommissioned Chimo-class cruiser was also in his forties. His military uniform was the same as Wei Chenghong's, but there was no golden anchor logo in the pocket of his jacket.
Unlike the vice-captain of the Chenghong, the captain of this ship had his own name, Sun Wanghua. The system probably knew that Wei Chenghong was Chinese and automatically selected the crew to be Chinese. Otherwise, the R series would definitely be Japanese.
"Commander, let's name the warship first. A name is very important. It's the only proof of identity for the warship.”Captain Sun's template was a standard soldier. Although Wei Chenghong didn't look like a soldier at all, he still chose to respect him because his orders were the only meaning of their existence.
