"The head of state...the latest information...the latest information...Fang Guan sent a secret message..." As he spoke, Tietutuo suddenly ran over and handed over a copy of the latest military information that had just been delivered.
The secret letter from the bearded man and the second fiddler was finally delivered. When Xiao Letian saw that Benjamin actually sent the secret police to try to kill him, the hand holding the telegraph newspaper unconsciously tightened, and the paper was pressed out of the depths. Deep wrinkles.
When he saw that his two old friends were safe again, his fingers finally relaxed and he put down the telegram. Xiao Letian sighed.
"Yes, it's just as I thought... This war with the British is not at the tactical level at all, but at the strategic level or even a higher dimension!"
"Big Beard can still see into the abyss, and the breadth of his thinking is much higher than mine... Maybe he is not a tactician, and he doesn't know how many secrets our Chinese family has!"
"But his intuition, this kind of talent is something ordinary people don't have... He doesn't know the inside story at all in London, and he can get the right idea just by judging the general trend on the surface!"
"The key to this life-and-death battle with Britain still depends on operations outside the battlefield! This will be a comprehensive and multi-dimensional battle...a confrontation of civilizations!"
Xiao Letian took a deep breath of sea breeze, picked up the rum in the ice bucket and took a big sip to his mouth. The cold and spicy taste stimulated his throat. At this moment, his mind was extremely clear!
In fact, Xiao Letian has already found the answer, but he just can't make up his mind. When the bearded bystander solved the mystery with one sentence, Xiao Letian's heart became extremely clear.
The determination was finally made, other options were finally abandoned, and the core strategy of this Chinese life-and-death battle was finally finalized in his heart!
"Haha... I thought that with more than two hundred years of experience, I could crush the ancients? It's actually a joke. Among the stars in human history, which one is easy to surpass?"
"This pitiful light of a time traveler is nothing compared to the superstars in the history of human civilization..."
"How dare the firefly light compete with the bright moon? I'm a loser too..."
With a snap, Xiao Letian smiled and gave himself a slap. The eyes of Fatty Jin and Tietutuo next to him were almost staring down. They didn't know what the head of state muttered, and why they still smiled and gave him a slap in the end. A slap in the face?
"Bring a pen and paper...it looks like I'll be busy for a long time again!"
Xiao Letian got into the field tent in the coconut forest, lit a few plates of mosquito repellent incense and started writing. Fatty Jin and others were waiting outside the tent. Did Xiao Letian have a new telegram for them to send, but there were more Xiao Letian was always writing on the manuscript paper.
Through the gap in the tent, Fatty Jin could see that the head of state seemed to be writing something very long, like a book.
From that day on, Xiao Letian would not leave the tent. Everything outside had nothing to do with him. He couldn't care less about Nicholas Tesla's new electric motor.
The No. 0 internal combustion engine drove the electric motor to pull out a long power grid, and Xiao Letian didn't care!
Even when the young inventor set up an electromagnetic coil more than four meters high on the north side of Savage Island, Xiao Letian didn't have time to watch it.
At this moment, everything he writes seems to be the whole world!
This is a savage island forgotten by the world. The European powers have no interest in it. In fact, the busy waterway is only a few dozen nautical miles away from here, but no captain wants to come and check it out.
On the north shore of the Nicobar Islands, further away is the more wild Andaman Islands. Many savages in canoes want to come here to fight these invaders. They have prepared countless poisonous arrows, blow needles, stone-tipped spears, and There are various witchcraft curses.
But they are no match for these yellow-skinned invaders. Those people can make huge noises from their long tubes and can accurately break the feathers on their hair from a hundred steps away.
A sneak attack at night? It was even more impossible. These savages suddenly discovered that once their canoe approached the north shore of the island, a devil's eye suddenly opened in the middle of the night.
The big eyes radiated the power of lightning, and the sizzling sound made everyone's hair explode!
The savages knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the devil. From then on, no savages dared to come and harass the Chinese projects. Under the cover of darkness, small cargo ships took the northernmost sea route and transported countless supplies here.
And all this was going on under the eyes of Western businessmen and even Western navies. Decades later, Western military experts discovered sigh-inducing information from the revealed materials.
During the several months of construction of the Savage Island Fortress, more than 10,000 ships passed by, including about a thousand warships going back and forth.
There are so many Western ships, but none of them are willing to sail more than fifty nautical miles north to explore. If one person suddenly became curious, it would not be possible for the Chinese to drive such a big nail in the Bay of Bengal. .
Everyone is blinded by greed and arrogance!
What the merchants want is a straight-line voyage. What they need is to send Asia's precious specialties back to Europe as quickly as possible, especially China's precious tea!
Now Europeans have figured out the types of Chinese tea. They even know that there are hundreds of classifications of black tea alone!
Whoever can deliver the new tea to the London market the fastest every year will be able to sell it at the highest price!
The capitalists are racing against time and money. Who would care about a savage island that has no value?
Needless to say, battleships, the arrogant empire would not have imagined that the Chinese would be so bold as to extend their hands to the west of the Strait of Malacca.
They are constantly mobilizing troops and supplies. What they are thinking about is how to completely annihilate the Chinese navy and how to completely occupy China!
Ignorance is actually not terrible at all, the most terrible thing is arrogance!
Just as the Europeans were greedy and arrogant, the Chinese fortress was taking shape day by day, with steel bars exposed around the modular concrete blocks.
These modules were quickly transported to the construction site, stacked one by one, and the steel bars were tied together, and a small amount of concrete was poured into the gaps.
The next step is to wait for it to dry naturally. The shapes of these modules are responsible for the interlocking of the teeth and can borrow strength from each other. The sturdiness is self-evident!
This kind of modular construction means that there is no cement factory on Savage Island and the construction period can be completed faster!
There is a cement factory on this Savage Island, and the thick smoke that comes out during the firing process may have awakened the Europeans on the Malacca Strait.
The Savage Island Fortress was taking shape day by day, and even some ammunition and supplies had begun to be transported. The soldiers were working enthusiastically on the construction site, but none of this alarmed Xiao Letian.
The head of state is almost in seclusion. Except for the three hours of rest every day, the rest of the time is spent on deduction, calculation, writing, revision... in the dark.
Of course, the various telegram orders he issued previously also caused waves in Europe!
