Seeing that the shock effect had been achieved, Tang Jian interrupted Churchill's contemplation and asked: "His Excellency Churchill, if China and Russia declare war, I think you, Britain, shouldn't interfere?"

Churchill looked at Tang Jian vigilantly and replied: "If it had not threatened the vital interests of the British Empire, I think the Far East Fleet would not be willing to provoke the Chinese Navy at its peak. Britain would not do both.*eng.com**"

Churchill's answer was very subtle. He neither agreed not to interfere nor said he would interfere. He kicked this question back to Tang Jian intact.

Tang Jian smiled mysteriously: "His Excellency Churchill, I think Russia should be very happy with the arrival of the British Far East Fleet. You should have gained a lot of benefits from Russia? Even if it is not for the sake of the ** problem, just buying the structural map of the Fearless, there is no need for such a large formation, right?"

Churchill felt nervous. Could it be that Tang Jian had already learned about the secret agreement between Britain and Russia? But this matter was the top secret. In the UK, only Prime Minister Chamberlain and several ministers in the cabinet knew that Tang Jian's intelligence department had already entered the British government? But Churchill thought about it carefully and found that this possibility was not great. Perhaps Tang Jian guessed something and tried him indirectly!

Churchill replied calmly: "Haha, President Tang Jian, since your goal has been achieved, then the reason for sending the British Far East Fleet to your country's sea front is not so clear, right?"

Tang Jian said: "Everyone is smart, so I won't point it out. But in the end, I just want to say that I, Tang Jian, are not afraid of any foreign forces that hinder our unity. The Chinese people are even more willing to fight with me to the end!"

"I understand, understand!" Churchill nodded understandingly.

Churchill continued: "Since the transaction has been successful and my mission has been completed, I will return to the UK first. Someone will ask President Tang Jian for details about the remaining handover matters."

"Then your Far East Fleet will not stay on the East China Sea for a few days? I also want our East China Sea Fleet and your Far East Fleet to conduct a joint military exercise on the East China Sea. Alas, since Your Excellency Churchill said that, I will not force anyone to make things difficult. It seems that the only thing is that your Far East Fleet will go wherever you go." Tang Jian said with difficulty.

Churchill suppressed the anger in his heart. Tang Jian was really shameless and a little too much. It was very different from the timid Qing officials he had contacted before. Churchill sometimes couldn't understand why such a rogue became the founding father of China.

"Hello Churchill, go slowly! Chen Chusheng, give it to you, General Michel, welcome to visit China at any time!" Tang Jian looked at the direction of Churchill and others leaving, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Report to the President, the British Far East Fleet has turned its direction and headed towards the South China Sea!" Chen Chusheng reported.

"The reconnaissance of the South China Sea Fleet must be seen with your own eyes as the British Far East Fleet leaves the South China Sea!" said Tang Jian.

"Yes, President!" Chen Chusheng replied.

Tian Aden took a step forward and asked, "Captain, why do you show our true strength to the British? Isn't this let them clearly know the national defense strength of our China?"

Wu Yingke was also a little puzzled: "Yes, and our submarine technology was not sold to Germany."

Tang Jian smiled and said, "The strength of the Beiyang Fleet was not worth mentioning in the eyes of the British Navy, but now it is different. The reason why the real strength of the Chinese Navy was actually to remind the British that China is different from the soft persimmons in the Qing Dynasty. It was not something he could pinch whenever he wanted. Now the British are in front of the British. If Britain wants to act rashly against China, it must consider it carefully to see if they have such a hard mouth. Ha, are the Germans? Sooner or later they will come to the door."

Tian Aden nodded. This is Tang Jian's sword for Britain! After this incident, Britain's attitude towards China will have a great improvement. Moreover, after the British propaganda, China's international status will rise significantly. This time, China is like a rising star in the Far East. If the great powers want to invade China, they should carefully consider their strength.

Wu Yingke also understood that the Germans knew that Britain had obtained such a powerful weapon at sea and were eager for submarines, and that submarine technology could be sold at that time.

It is really worthwhile to curb the development of Britain's power in the Far East through Germany and to easily earn a huge sum of money.

After Churchill and Michelle boarded the Queen Elizabeth, they turned around decisively and prepared to return to the South China Sea, then detoured the Strait of Malacca and returned to India.

The British Far East Fleet, which was still aggressive a few days ago, seemed to be returning in shame this time. Michelle was extremely depressed. He wanted to teach the Chinese Navy a lesson, but he didn't expect that in the end, he seemed to be slapped in public by Tang Jian, but he couldn't fight back. Whoever asked the other person's strength was there, if he really wanted to fight, he would not get any advantage.

Churchill and Michelle came to the deck of Queen Elizabeth. The sea breeze was gentle, the blue ocean, the white clouds were rolling, and at the intersection of the sky and sea, another Chinese naval destroyer with the yellow dragon sword flag was swaying and following him, without fear of the huge fleet in front of him.

Michelle became more and more angry the more she thought about it. Especially when she saw the arrogant destroyer behind, she almost cursed. However, this time, he did not want to sink the annoying destroyer, because behind this destroyer was the mysterious and powerful Chinese Navy. With his current strength, he was really not arrogant.

The early 21st century was an era of prey on the weak. Whoever has a strong fist will have confidence when speaking. Now Michelle's fist is not strong, so he can't raise any confidence.

Churchill looked at the closely followed Chinese naval destroyer in the distance and asked, "General Michelle, do you think they are still those weak yellow-skinned monkeys?"

Michelle remained silent, but the expression on his face told Churchill that these yellow-skinned monkeys were no weaker than the British Far East Fleet.

Michelle smiled awkwardly and said, "Hisser Churchill, thank you. If you hadn't stopped me rationally, I wouldn't have been able to stand here today."

Churchill sighed and said, "Never underestimate those enemies who are weaker than you. Perhaps in your accident, they are so powerful that you can't imagine."

This was seen by Michelle, so he did not refute Churchill's point of view, but asked: "His Excellency Churchill, do you think China will threaten the interests of the British Empire? Will we go to war with them?"

Churchill said solemnly: "Now China has affected the interests of the British Empire, but it is not that obvious. Although China is rising rapidly now, according to their development speed, at least within ten years, China will not be able to go to war with the British Empire. However, it will be unknown ten years later."

Michelle took a breath and said in surprise: "So fast? Your Excellency Churchill really thinks that China will develop so quickly?"

Churchill replied: "Didn't you see those advanced warships with your own eyes? Tang Jian gave us too many surprises, but not just because China is developing so fast, but because Britain is slowly lagging behind other countries. Germany is the best proof. In just a few decades, Germany has seriously threatened the British Empire's hegemony in Europe. If China and Germany join forces, I think Britain may not be able to win in ten years."

Michelle's heart was ups and downs. Looking at the Chinese Navy destroyer in the distance, he asked in his heart, would the glory of the Empire not set in the sun finally become history?

An hour later, the setting sun was as bloody as a few seagulls hovering above the mast gradually faded away, and on the deck, there was only a silent Churchill frowning and meditating.

...

After dealing with the British Far East Fleet, Tang Jian said to Tian Arden: "Adden, with such a large amount of funds, the construction plan for the second dreadnought will be much faster. In addition, the matter of aircraft and tanks cannot be delayed for a moment. After taking back the Northeast, it is time to suppress the revived Japan."

Tian Aden said in surprise: "Captain, are you going to attack the Russian army in the Northeast?"

Tang Jian nodded and said, "The Russians have been acting as a hero in the Northeast for several years, and it is time to deal with them."

"But the winter in the northeast is about to enter. Then it will be snowing heavily and the weather is cold and the ground is freezing. Wouldn't it be unfavorable to the army's operations?" Tian Aden asked.

In the previous regaining of the Northeast, Tang Jian chose to take action in the beginning of spring, but in the end he failed because of Yuan Shikai's evil plan. But why did Tang Jian choose to take action in winter this time?

You should know that it is not an exaggeration to call the winter in the Northeast a terrible one. The snow sea is vast, the mountains are high and dense forests are several times more difficult than in summer. Isn’t it a matter of taking back the Northeast now? It’s better to wait a few more months. After spring, the roads are easy to pass after the snow melts, and it’s not too late to take action.

Tang Jian saw Tian Aden's doubts and explained: "It is indeed inconvenient to attack the Northeast in winter, but things are both sides. It is inconvenient for us to march and supply is not easy, so it is even more difficult for the Russians far away from the Siberian Railway. As long as Duan Qirui cuts off the Siberian Railway, it will be extremely difficult for Russian soldiers and weapons to replenish. The Russians are far away from their local wars and will not receive support from the local people at all. Therefore, it is much easier to attack the Northeast in winter than to attack the Northeast in spring."
