C1511 Andreev's Dream

Andreev's entire body was drenched from head to toe from the baskets carrying Zhiyuan Warship. The splashing seawater and the damp morning mist drenched his military uniform and leather robes.

What made his heart even colder was not only the sea breeze, but also this incomparably huge steel ship full of power. Under his feet was the teak wood floor, and all that he could see was steel, decks, cannons, main cannons, masts … Even the fences that protected sailors from falling into the sea were made of steel.

Humans were born with a natural adoration for iron and steel, and this was the genetic code that was imprinted in their souls. When the primitive tribes with wooden clubs and stone axes first encountered the civilized cities with bronze short swords and spears, they had the dreamy feeling of seeing a god.

When the barbarians charged towards the ancient empires, the forest made of armor made of steel, together with the invincible blade edge of steel, meant that the boundary between civilization and savagery would be covered by this one inch of cold light.

With regards to metals, especially steel, the sense of power that humans were infatuated with had become a type of gene after thousands of years of settling down.

Andreev clearly remembered that he was different from Vadim. Vadim had ridden from Central Asia to the Far East, while Andreev had arrived in China by boat in Europe.

He remembered very clearly that the whole Baltic Sea was filled with Sail battleship. The soldiers were already worthy of cheering when they encountered a cruiser with a double cannon emplacement. However, when they arrived at the English Channel and saw the British Empire's three layers of battleships pressing down on them like a mountain, Andreev almost suffocated.

A sense of power, he had a feeling of power, at that moment, he truly felt that the British Empire was undefeatable.

That memory had followed him all the way to the present, then to East Asia, where he had watched the Qing Empire, Nanyang, Korea, and Japan's ridiculous old wooden ships, and felt a sense of European superiority. At the time, he had really thought that coming to the Far East was civilization liberating savagery, and he had no sense of aggressor.

But today, a familiar feeling came over him once again. The heavy feeling did not come from the British Empire's battleship at sea, but from this Zhiyuan Warship of the Chinese.

No matter how much information Andreev had regarding this legendary battleship, he obviously knew about the legends of the Zhiyuan Warship traversing the Atlantic and South America continents. However, he had always thought that those were just legends.

Of course, the Chinese did not think that it was a bluff, but a strategy instead. But in the hearts of soldiers like Andreev, any deceptive tactics were always shameful, only power was real.

Until the Zhiyuan Warship threw himself into the battle of the Haishenwai, when that heavy cannonball exploded in the city, it was actually exploding the weak pride of the Sand Russian Army.

They never would have thought that the Zhiyuan Warship's fighting strength was strong to the point where it was not a legend but a fact.

But today, after Andreev personally ascended to the position of the world's number one pure Steel battleship, his three views were turned upside down once again. Steel was everywhere, and the heavy pressure of the field made him and the surrounding civilians breathless.

The Gatling s that were fixed to the battleship rotated with their figures. The marines behind the 57 mm Hutchison rapid fire gun were busy maintaining their equipment, the soldiers that were running around completely disregarded these Grandma Liu who had entered the Grand View Garden. All they had in their minds was this war and the mission they had just been assigned.

Xiao Letian was preparing to meet these unexpected guests somewhere. When Andreev first saw the Zhiyuan Warship's main cannon, his last bit of pride and modesty was completely destroyed at this moment.

The main 210-caliber cannon was placed on the battleship, this was a feat people didn't expect at the time. This type of cannon was mostly concentrated on the shore defense turret, no wooden battleship in the world could withstand such a cannon's recoil.

Actually, even a pure steel dragon bone Zhiyuan Warship would find it difficult to deal with this kind of recoil. In fact, the two chainmail main cannons designed were simply unable to fire consecutively, and could only fire a single shot from time to time.

If you surpass this era by half a step, you are a genius. If you surpass this era by one step, you would become a lunatic. Xiao Letian could understand the shock in Andreev's eyes, the feeling of surpassing his generation had already completely defeated him.

That kind of feeling could not be described by anyone, but it was easy for Xiao Letian to understand and understand it. This was because only Xiao Letian knew that the appearance of Zhiyuan Warship was 24 years ahead of its actual history, which meant that there was a 24 years technological difference between the appearance of Zhiyuan Warship and the time.

What is the concept of 24 years of difference? It was as if the number 24 wasn't really that big, but Xiao Letian could actually compare it to some things from the era he lived in.

This was because Xiao Letian lived in an era where technology was exploding, for example, people's communication device phones. During the year 2014, when Xiao Letian came over, smartphones had already been made available on a large scale, and people could often see their fingers touching and touching the touchscreen on the streets, surfing either Weibo, WeChat, or cutting fruits.

But if you push ahead at this time for 24 years, in 1990, if you could walk the streets with an Android touchscreen phone... Come on, I'm guessing your gadget would have alarmed the Säpo.

Back in 1990, there weren't even any BBs available. If you could take out a cell phone from the street, people would definitely see you as an alien.

The same principle also applied to people of this era. Andreev who was used to seeing Sail battleship s and wooden boat suddenly encountered this kind of illusory battleship that was of advanced black technology. He was completely convinced as a sense of suppression completely destroyed him, causing him to be unable to speak any words of negotiation that she had organized on her journey here.

"This officer!" This sir! Hello... Are you listening to me? "What business do you have with me, officer?" Xiao Letian saw that Andreev's expression was a little dazed, and was only staring at the 210-caliber main cannon in a daze. He knew that this Grandma Liu had already been shocked.

"How do you feel? This was the Ocean Battle Cannon that the Krupp had created with the help of 300 engineers and 6 industry elites. Do you feel very mighty? "

"Yes …" Yes... Oh, I'm sorry! "I was rude …" It was only until now did Andreev finally wake up from her dream. When he saw the Chinese man dressed in the general's attire, she knew that this was the main character, Xiao Letian.

"Russia's Far Eastern Army, First Army, Second Regiment, First Battalion …" Battalion Commander Andreev salutes to the Prime Minister! "

"Take a break!" You shouldn't salute me first. On this battleship, I am not the most important person! " After saying that, Xiao Letian flashed forward, and Zai Chun, who was wearing a dragon robe, appeared in front of Andreev.
