Chapter 55: Fleet Convergence (3)

"It seems that the people are in good condition and have a very good mental outlook."

"Yes, it seems that our previous worries are a bit redundant. The emotions of the masses are not affected by time travel, but it may also be that the government officials have done their job well."

"Haha! Isn't this a good thing? It saves us a lot of trouble."

"Old Xiao, don't be too happy too early. Judging from her current situation, she can indeed save us a lot of trouble, but I think the new trouble is about to begin."

"Oh! Lao Qin, what's going on?"

At nine o'clock in the morning, the three passenger boats informed the passengers of the fact that the fleet was traveling through at the same time. The administrators, the three passenger boats and the leadership of the evacuated personnel were also as if they were facing a great enemy and were ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

But the result was much beyond their expectations. After the broadcast was broadcast, the crew members had been silent for a while and digested the news. Although some people's emotions did change, they did not cause collective or large-scale panic. When everyone asked on the boat, most of the reactions they heard were:

"Traveling through time? Is this true? We've really traveled through time."

"Yes, I've been waiting for this day for a long time, and now it's finally here."

"It's great, I can finally be the king. The wheels of time have begun to roll."

"God, you finally responded to my surrender. I came, I saw, I conquered."

…………

Of course, most of the people who react in this way are young people under the age of 30, while those over the age of 30 mostly respond to everyone's imagination. However, most of the members of the evacuation of overseas Chinese are young people between the ages of 20 and 30.

The radio then announced the era of time travel and the news that the time travel fleet defeated the Eight-Nation Alliance stationed in Dagukou. It was originally intended to cheer up the confidence of the crew, but it did not arouse much strong reaction. It was not that people were indifferent to the news of victory, but they were busy looking for information about this era. As a generation of young people who grew up in time travel culture, who does not have a few time travel movies in their mobile phones, tablets, and computers? Although not everyone traveled to the late Qing Dynasty, even if they traveled to other dynasties, they could also refer to the successful experiences of their time travel predecessors.

However, some people subconsciously turned on the browser and planned to search for information online. After rushing for a long time, they remembered this fact. After traveling through time, there was no Internet. Some people accepted this reality very rationally and searched for the information they needed from the hard drive and the storage card, but some people started to curse, what is this breaking the times? There is not even an IFI, how can you live this life?

No matter how much I complain, the young people who were deeply influenced by time-travel culture quickly adjusted their mentality and faced reality with a more positive attitude. On the one hand, they communicated with each other's existence and exchanged all the time travel between them. On the other hand, they held a heated discussion. How should we develop in this era, whether the constitutional monarchy system or the democratic republic path should be adopted; whether the capitalist market economy or the socialist planning system should be developed; whether to develop large-scale industrialization or encircle cities with rural areas, etc. Of course, some people also asked about the beauties in this era, what struggles had occurred in the palace, and whether Emperor Guangxu was handsome or not, they were all intrigued by the eight-point topics such as whether Emperor Guangxu was handsome or not. They were all excited, and the atmosphere was very warm, and sometimes they would fight red. Even though some people's emotions were affected, they felt much more stable under the influence of such a hot atmosphere of discussion. So many people didn't care, and I was anxious again.

After Wang Yunpeng and others learned about these situations, they felt a little amused and worried for a long time. After all, they were a generation of young people who grew up in time-travel culture. Their psychological tolerance was strong, and they seemed to be unable to keep up with the times. You should know that Wang Yunpeng and others were not old, and they were only in their early forties, but compared with young people, they had completely become two eras.

However, the result is also very good, and it can indeed save a lot of trouble. At the same time, when we arrived at Dagukou, we also gave an explanation to the military.

In such an atmosphere, at about ten minutes in the morning, three passenger ships arrived at Dagukou Wharf under the protection of the Taihu ship, Sanya ship and Huaihua ship. Everyone on the ship also stopped discussing, came to the deck, leaned against the side of the ship, and visited the real scene of China more than a hundred years ago.

At this time, the cleaning work on the dock had been almost done, and the prisoners were taken into the barracks and imprisoned. However, there were still many traces of the battle left behind. As the sea surface of the dock, many warships sunk by the crossing fleet were half exposed on the sea surface, but the hull was covered with bullet marks and the steel plates were twisted and twisted, indicating that a fierce battle had just been fought. Fortunately, the bodies in the sea had been salvaged, otherwise many people would probably have spit it out.

The British ship Orlando, German ship Lufthansa, and more than ten transport ships captured by the crossing fleet were still parked at the dock, but the national flags of various countries had been removed, and each ship was guarded by the Marine Corps. This also indicates that the control of Dagukou has completely fallen into the hands of the crossing fleet.

Seeing these scenes, the crew members on the three passenger boats were excited and they really traveled through time.

Although some people visited the Dagukou Fort site in the old time and space, it was more than a hundred years later, and after the modern restoration site, what they saw now is the original ancient building landscape, which is naturally very different. Therefore, people are very excited. Even those who were not in high spirits just now were mobilized to get rid of them. While pointing on the boat, they talked loudly; while taking out their mobile phones, tablets, digital cameras, and cameras, taking selfies and snapping at the docks.

Since I had just traveled through time, many people still did not realize that they were in the late Qing Dynasty. After taking the photos, they instinctively wanted to send the photos to their Weibo and WeChat and send them to their relatives and friends. Some people even called them. After a long time, they still didn't come back to their senses and scolded the bad signal here.

Xia Bohai, Qin Zheng and Xiao Jianjun came to the dock to pick up the boat. Seeing this scene also surprised the three of them, and they once had the illusion of returning to the old time and space travel.

Hearing Xiao Jianjun's rebellious question, Qin Zheng said: "From the reactions of the masses now, the emotions of the masses are not affected by time travel, and it also means that the masses are full of expectations for this era. They probably want to do something in this era, but this energy can only be boosted and not released. This requires that our actions must meet their needs, and at least achieve major results in the short term to maintain their spirit."

Xiao Jianjun was a little puzzled and said, "Didn't we have occupied Dagukou? And we have basically wiped out the Eight-Nation Alliance in Dagukou. Isn't this result of the battle?"

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "This result is indeed not counted. If the masses are not in high spirits, it will be an encouragement to them. But for the masses, this battle has nothing to do with them, because this battle happened before they knew the truth of time travel. If we want to maintain the momentum of the masses, we must achieve major results that are no less than that of the Dagukou Battle in a short period of time, so that the masses have full confidence in our combat effectiveness."

At this time, Xia Bohai said: "Old Qin is right. Even if there is no need for the masses, we must make new breakthroughs as soon as possible. I have considered this issue. Occupying Dagukou to land is only our first step, but Dagukou itself is just a coastal defense fortress, with no residents; two, without supplements, and it cannot be a good asset. Moreover, we now have more than 3,000 prisoners, plus more than 1,000 people released by us, and we have a population burden of more than 4,000. At present, the food and food seized from Dagukou is only enough to last for more than a month. Staying in Dagukou can only be trapped to death. We must obtain a large population as soon as possible and be able to obtain stable and replenishment areas, because we not only need food and food, but also recruit troops and expand our army."

Xiao Jianjun immediately reacted and said, "Old Xia, what do you mean is that our next goal is to capture Tianjin?"

Xia Bohai bowed his head and said, "Yes, there is no future to stay in Dagukou. We must occupy Tianjin as soon as possible to be considered as a real firm foothold and then we can take the exam for development."

In fact, Xiao Jianjun had a plan to attack Tianjin, because Dagu-Tianjin was originally one, and after capturing Dagukou, he would have to attack Tianjin. However, he was not as comprehensive as Xia Bohai's mind. However, in Xiao Jianjun's mind, he had already formulated several combat plans. At this time, he didn't feel any surprise and said, "Okay, then today I will hold a military meeting to study the combat plan for attacking Tianjin."

Qin Zheng shook his head and said, "I think we can't recruit a military meeting right now. There are still many things we need to solve urgently. Therefore, I think we should recruit a full enlarged meeting first. The participants are representatives of all parties. We will determine our future general direction and then consider military issues."

Xia Bohai smiled and said, "This is not a contradiction. Now that everyone has arrived, we can hold an enlarged meeting in the afternoon, get everything we need to do, hold a military meeting in the evening to study how to attack Tianjin. In addition, we can also do some preparations, such as interrogating prisoners, understanding the defense situation in Tianjin, sending drones to take pictures of Tianjin maps, etc.."

Qin Zheng said: "Also, the Zhao Weizhong we rescued from the sea turned out to be a member of Tianjin Machinery Bureau. He should know a lot about the situation in Tianjin. We can ask him."
