Struggle in Russia

Alexei stared at Adlerberg Jr.'s face for a long time and couldn't see why. The father and son of the fox were all film emperors, and his expression was leak-free. Anyway, when people looked at him, they only felt that he was passing around to watch the party. He would never think that he would be one of the black hands behind the scenes.

In desperation, Alexei returned to the court again, the inquiry finally began, and Ye Luofei was asking:

"Her Excellency Andrei Konstantinovich, have you ever made a suggestion to build a new steam ship?"

骁 Li Xiao calmly replied: "Yes, is there a problem with this?"

Ye Luofei resentfully said: "The problem is not there, but it is debatable. As we all know, steam ships are immature and there are a series of insurmountable problems. Before these problems are not overcome, blindly advocating steam ships is not a negative Responsible? "

After speaking, Ye Luofei felt a little complacent and could not wait, he felt that it was time for him to perform as a real expert. The humiliation he just received will be doubled back!

骁 Li Xiao is still so light-hearted, and calmly answers: "Sorry, Colonel Fitenov, I didn't understand your question? What did you just say?"

Ye Yefei despised Li Xiao with a scornful look, and said, "I don't understand even the words. This level still has his face as a grandfather. It's not shameful. Sure enough, a hybrid is a hybrid! There must be no table on dog meat! 】

Sergei Roferon raised his head, and answered with a little pride, "I was asking, before a series of problems with the steam ship were overcome ..."

骁 Li Xiao cut him off directly and asked, "What are the problems you call a series of problems? Why haven't I heard of any insurmountable problems with steam ships? It's not a good habit to be alarmist!"

Ye Yefei felt more and more that Li Xiao was out of school. Is there any problem with the steam ship? However, seeing Xiao Xiao throwing himself into the net, he was also happy to send a ride:

"Why is it alarmist? Do n’t you know, Grand Duke, simply say that the reliability of steam engines and boilers is not good? The steam engines and boilers that we have spent heavily on purchases cannot meet the needs of long-term sailing. Why? Is it a big problem? "

骁 Li Xiao laughed and asked again: "Where do you see that the steam engine and boiler can not meet the needs of long-term navigation?"

Ye Luofei chuckled: "Is this still useful? Almost all steam ships can work at most for three or five days, and then either they burn out the coal or burn down, they are the only steam ships in our fleet. Are you going to turn a blind eye! "

Whispers rang out at the venue, and everyone was attracted by Ye Luofei. After all, his reaction was very realistic. If the steamboat is really so unbearable, then it really shouldn't be promoted vigorously.

But the proud Ye Luo Fei did not notice the expression of Grand Duke Constantine. The Grand Duke did not have any sense of happiness, but looked at Ye Luo Fei as if he wanted to spit fire.

The reason is actually very simple. Grand Duke Constantine supported steam ships. What he opposed was only Li Xiao. Before, he repeatedly explained Ye Luo Fei. He must control the attack surface. Li Xiao can let go of it, but it is best not to attack the steam ship. Even if you want to focus on a few points Li Xiao focused on his objections.

But now, Ye Luofei is swept up by iron rods, which suppresses Li Xiao's arrogance, but also seriously hits the reputation of steam ships. Where does this leave his navy innovation plan?

The natural Grandpa Constantine hated his teeth itchingly, and was angry with Ye Luo Fei. But think about it, in fact, Ye Luo Fei is not easy, the request of Grand Duke Constantine is not reasonable, it is difficult to take both sides into consideration.

The swift opening of the right-handed Li Xiao made Ye Luofei eager to pull back a city, could not help but force too much, after all, the old man still wanted to perform well.

Ye Luofei, who was proud at this time, looked at Li Xiao and showed the smile of the victor. He asked a little cheerfully, "Her Majesty, you haven't explained this? Didn't you want to say anything?"

According to Ye Luofei, he won this round. After all, there are examples of the overwhelming steam ships in the Baltic Sea. How can the other party refute?

But Li Xiao could still refute, and when he sighed, he looked at Ye Luofei with a kind of poor eyes, as if looking at the mentally handicapped.

"Colonel Fitenov, I must ask you, how long have you not cared about the actual operation of the steamboat?"

Ye Luofei frowned, and asked angrily, "My Excellency, what do you mean by that? I tell you, before I came to question, I specifically called for the use of the relevant steam ship in my Baltic fleet. My statement There is evidence! "

"No no no!" Li Xiao shook his head and said, "I asked how long have you not paid attention to the use of steam ships in countries with higher levels of steam engines and boilers? Do you know that there are a large number of steam ships in the Royal Navy? Can be steam-powered at sea for long periods of time. "

"For example, the Black Hawk, from 1843 to 1847, it has used steam power to sail for more than 20,000 nautical miles, with an average annual steam power of more than 4,000 nautical miles."

Li Xiaoyi laughed and said: "According to the use of steam ships by the Royal Navy this year, as long as the maintenance is reasonable, steam ships can sail at sea for a long time ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ and because it is completely free of wind and wind direction Impact, the greater the efficiency of long-distance sailing than traditional sailing. "

He said, Li Xiao gave a slight pause, and he smiled: "As for the badly used steam ships in the Baltic Fleet, Colonel Fitenov, can you tell me when they are old antiques?"

"By the way, I forgot to mention that, as far as I know, the maintenance costs of the Baltic Fleet steam ships are often misappropriated. What do you think of the performance of ships that cannot be guaranteed even by maintenance work?"

He Ye Luo Fei changed his face, he really did not pay attention to the use of the Royal Navy's steam ship. Because the steamship performed poorly in the Baltic Fleet, he felt that this fact was sufficient.

The example cited by Li Xiao took his face fiercely, and behind him was ruthlessly mocking the Baltic Fleet ’s steamboat for its poor performance, which was totally a human accident and had nothing to do with the ship. It was easy to resolve his attack, but it made him a little bit off the stage.

At the time of his arrival, Ye Luofei secretly screamed and had to fight back immediately, but from which side? It is too embarrassing to fight Li Xiao's arrogance and not to embarrass Grand Constantine who supports the steamship ...
