"What day is today? Why is it so lively on the dock?"

"I just asked, it turned out that our navy went to fight yesterday and won a big victory, which severely damaged the fleets of Russia and Japan. These people went to the dock to see the warships."

Li Songchen nodded and said, "So that's the case. We finally joined the war."

Sun Yuanjian said: "Yes, this is a matter of time sooner or later. Now that I have joined the war, I have completed a big event. I will do my best to help the war in the future. I don't have to keep remembering it all the time."

Dong Jiaqi said: "At this time, it is probably not good for our work in Shanghai. Now Shanghai is a place where various countries are concentrated, and the attitudes of Britain, the United States, France and other countries do not want us to participate in the war. When we go to Shanghai to take office at this time, the external environment will definitely not be friendly, which may be a big trouble for us."

Li Songchen shook his head and said, "Friendship is achieved through our own strength, not by our external show of kindness, so there is no need to worry at all. As long as our army fights better on the battlefield, the more stable our position in Shanghai will be, and other countries will not dare to underestimate us."

Sun Yuanjian said: "That is, the current status of Shanghai New District is not achieved by compromising with foreign forces and showing goodwill, but by the victories we won when we first got ashore."

Li Songchen and his party came to Qingdao from Tianjin to go through the corresponding procedures, and then went to Shanghai to replace Yang Yuxin as the Chief Executive of the Shanghai New District. After learning about the situation in Shanghai, Li Songchen finally decided to accept the arrangement of the Executive Yuan and take office in Shanghai. First of all, Shanghai has a very special status in modern China, and of course its development prospects are far stronger than Tianjin. Even though the East China government now has only one administrative district in Shanghai, but serving as a local official in Shanghai, he is very particular.

Human development plays a very important role; secondly, although Shanghai is a mess now, it is precisely because of this that when you go to Shanghai, you can show your strength. The Executive Yuan will not put up high expectations for yourself. As long as you can stabilize the situation in Shanghai, it is enough. Moreover, Li Songchen does not think it is difficult to stabilize Shanghai. After all, Yang Yuxin has been operating in the Shanghai New District for nearly 4 years and has laid a good foundation. As long as the East China government remains strong and maintains development, it is not difficult to control Shanghai.

However, Li Songchen also made a request like the Executive Yuan, which was to draw several middle-level officials from Tianjin to Shanghai to carry out work. The Executive Yuan had no objection to this, because Li Songchenli's request was also very reasonable. A hero needs three helpers. No matter how strong Li Songchen's ability is, he will inevitably be alone when he goes to Shanghai alone. Since the current Shanghai New District is a mess, Li Songchen takes a few of his right-hand assistants to Shanghai together, it will also help him to carry out his work in Shanghai quickly. The Executive Yuan also hopes that Li Songchen will stabilize the situation in Shanghai as soon as possible.

This time, Li Songchen brought only two subordinates. Sun Yuanjian was the office director of Li Songchen when he was working in Tianjin, responsible for handling Li Songchen's daily work affairs. Dong Jiaqi was the director of the personnel department, and they were both Li Songchen's right-hand assistants. Of course, Li Songchen planned to recruit more than two of them, but there were 4 or 5 alternative personnel. However, it would take a while before Li Songchen took office in Shanghai New District and learned about the situation of the Shanghai New District. In addition, the three of them also brought 4 accompanying guards.

When Li Songchen arrived in Qingdao, he happened to catch up with the People's Army to participate in the war and achieved major victories on both sea and land lines overnight. At 6 a.m., the East China Government officially announced its participation in the war in the form of [New China News], and reported the results of the battle between sea and land lines last night. At the same time, it also announced a press conference to be held at 10 a.m. to answer questions from reporters from various countries.

Although it was released at 6 a.m., news of the East China government participating in the war spread rapidly in Qingdao. It was the consulates and reporters stationed in Qingdao who rushed to each other. Although all countries knew that the East China government would participate in the war, when the East China government really participated in the war, the diplomats and reporters from various countries were still furious. The first batch of 30,000 copies of printed numbers were sold out within an hour.

People who bought outside the account read it repeatedly, hoping to find some hidden inside information from the lines, while those who did not buy it had to wait for the next batch of outside the account to be launched.

However, after the shock, foreign consulate staff and reporters expressed doubts about the results announced on the outside world. From the naval battle at 5 pm to 5 AM, the land war was basically over. In just 12 hours, the People's Army actually won huge victories on three fronts. Any of these victory was already very rare, let alone these three victories at the same time? So many people also inquired about the details of the war from the departments and personnel of their familiar departments. Since it was the gate of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, almost all were surrounded by diplomats and reporters before it was time to go to work, they asked people to answer everyone's questions. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that at the press conference held at 10 o'clock, there would be detailed explanations and answers to reporters' questions, but now there is no reply.

At this time, more than two hours before the press conference was released. Some reporters rushed to the auditorium early to ask and wait in line. However, another news came that the People's Army Navy fleet had returned and brought back many captured Japanese and Russian warships and soldiers, so everyone rushed to the dock to watch.

In fact, the People's Army Navy fleet began to return to the port at 4 a.m. At 8 a.m., most of the warships and captive ships returned to the port and anchored at each dock, but some warships were still guarding the Tsushima Strait. Because there were two Japanese ships, Shikijima, and the Hiroshima, were stranded and wanted to rescue the rescue ships. So a large crowd rushed into Qingdao Bay.

The East China government did not ban the docks, but avoided a dock viewing area, and only arranged a lot of troops to maintain order. After all, this is a great opportunity to promote the military achievements of the People's Army and boost the morale of the people.

The people who parked at this pier are captured Japanese and Russian warships. Of course, this was also a deliberate arrangement by the East China government. The personnel of the Japanese and Russian armies have been taken away. Each warship has only a small number of caregivers. Only looking at the hull, deck, incomplete appearance on the ship, cracked holes, twisted steel plates, and broken masts can make people imagine how fierce the battle they had experienced. Moreover, the Russian Navy Andre flag and the Japanese Navy Sun Rising Sun Flag of the warship were not torn off, but they just descended. The chrysanthemum emblem on the head of the Japanese ship can clearly indicate the original identity of these warships.

When the diplomats from various countries saw these warships, the diplomats from various countries also dispelled some of the suspicions, and the reporters also knew some of the warships. Therefore, it can be confirmed that the People's Army Navy did win a big victory. The diplomats hurriedly took out their notepads and recorded the scenes they saw, while the reporters set up cameras and took down each warship.

Of course, in addition to diplomats and journalists from various countries, there are more people in Qingdao. The people's ideas are very simple, as long as they win a battle, they can only laugh, point fingers on the dock, and some people cheer loudly. Since the East China government took over Qingdao, developing the economy and improving people's livelihood has indeed significantly improved the people's living standards, and therefore it has won the hearts of the people. Now that they have won the battle, it has naturally greatly increased the ambition of the people.

After Li Songchen and his group got off the boat, they left the official passage and came to the special city train to the administrative district in a special lounge set up for officials.

At this time, there were more than a dozen people in the lounge, but there was a group of soldiers wearing uniforms very conspicuous. In fact, there were many people in Li Songchen, with a total of 7 people, which attracted a lot of attention. Even many of the soldiers watched.

Li Songchen immediately recognized the two sides as they looked at each other, including the Minister of the Navy, Shang Jinfeng, and Gao Jun.

Monk Li Songchen and Jin Feng had a few faces. Although they had no close friends, they knew each other. In other words, Gao Jun was also a subordinate of Li Songchen, because before this battle, Gao Jun had basically left the army completely and worked in the local area. She was mainly responsible for improving women's social status, education level, living and working environment, etc.

The East China government must vigorously develop the economy, and liberating women is also one of the key points. Only when women are fully liberated can they obtain a large amount of labor under the current limited human resources of the East China government. When the East China government wants to participate in the war, it will inevitably occupy a large amount of male labor to serve the war. Therefore, social production during the war requires a large number of women workers to make up for it.

Gao Jun has worked in Tianjin for nearly 4 years and has done a lot of work for women's liberation. With her efforts, the proportion of female workers in Tianjin has now reached nearly 30%, mainly distributed in light industry and service industries. In this era, this has been a considerable achievement. Because her work has been done very well, it is also highly valued by the Executive Yuan. If it weren't for this war, Gao Jun would have been transferred to Qingdao to work.

After the two sides met, they greeted each other. Li Songchen also congratulated Shang Jinfeng, congratulating the Navy on its victory. Shang Jinfeng also said a few words of modestness, saying that there was nothing to be proud of in this victory, and everyone knew the reason.

It turned out that Shang Jinfeng and his team went to the command center to report yesterday's battle situation and also discussed the next combat plan. In addition to Shang Jinfeng, there was also the captain of the Sanya ship, Zhang Wei, who reported on behalf of the Northern Fleet. Originally, this should be the matter of Wang Hailong, the commander of the Northern Fleet, but now Wang Hailong is still floating on the sea to deal with the dragging back two stranded Japanese warships, so Zhang Wei had to do it. The two of them selected two intermediate officers from their respective warships to go with them. Gao Jun was one of the entourages.

Li Songchen also explained his purpose in this industry and was preparing to take office in Shanghai.

Shang Jinfeng was one of the members of the Wartime Command. Of course, he knew about Shanghai and knew that the Executive Yuan wanted Li Songchen to replace Yang Yuxin. He said: "Shanghai is a mess now. Mayor Li has arrived in Shanghai, and the burden is not light."

Li Songchen smiled and said, "Actually it's okay, I don't think it's that difficult."
