When Boss Su hurried to the business, the situation was already chaotic. He and several partners were outside the same street, and they encountered white thugs attacking. At this time, shops in the nearby area had already closed one after another, and some white shops were also looted. Boss Su and his companions hid in the nearby small church and returned to the church. The priest came forward to stop the followers of the thugs, but they could not dissuade them. The situation was quite critical.

There are more than 20 employees in the business, including many members of the former association. Everyone is equipped with six thunder cannons, but the chalk rebate is limited. Moreover, there are many thugs outside, and there are no less than dozens of firearms. Some of them have long chalk guns, with a long range and great power. The pottery on the shelves in the store is occasionally shattered by chalk bombs and dust is filled with dust.

Hiding behind the wooden counter, Manager Gao was wearing copper balls one by one. The old man had a goat beard. His eyes were clattering, and he looked like a philistine. However, he didn't expect that he was a good man. The young man who was hiding beside him was shocked. Lai Xi didn't know that Manager Gao had followed Boss Su to death and had a scar on his body.

"Bang" Another tincture oil bottle was thrown in. The tincture oil splashed on the nearby wooden table shelves, and a sea of ​​fire immediately ignited. Several clerks hurriedly took out the clothes wrapped in mud to put out the fire.

Listening to the noise outside like a beast, Lai Xi was almost scared to pee her pants and asked in a crying voice: "Shopkeeper, police crest, will the police crest come?" He could only hope that the police crest can arrive in time. The Chinese in the gold mining area were attacked and returned to the bureau can turn a blind eye, but this is the capital city. From common sense, Australians will never condone the thugs who looted the shops.

Manager Gao sighed in his heart, thinking that it was good to be lucky, but he was afraid that when the Australian police arrived, he would have been buried in the sea of ​​fire. But he just patted Lai Xi's head and said, "You will come, don't be afraid." This young child is usually very diligent and said he wants to save money to go back to his hometown to get married, but he was actually pitiful when he encountered such a disaster.

The shop was outside the street and the streets. Seeing the fire gradually caught in the shop, Boris smiled proudly. He pressed his hat down and just received a tip from a friend of the police station that the patrol police would arrive in half an hour. By then, the gold and silver coins in this Chinese-Chinese shop had been taken into his pocket.

The Bund was near the dock, and suddenly there was a flurry. Then, at the corner of the street, several white young men ran over. Then, in groups of three or three, more and more people were running towards this side. These people should have been looting the bandits who were close to the shop, but at this time they were panicking, as if they were burned by fire, like a monster over there.

"What's going on?" Boris grabbed a young man wearing a felt hat and holding a fire gun running past him. The young man shouted: "Navy! The Chinese navy..." After that, he broke free from Boris and ran towards the city.

Boris was stunned and then ran to the Bund by the flow of people. He was almost hit by someone several times. He walked through the street and came to a condescending shop. The environment here was excellent and you could look at the sea from the flowerbed.

But in the afterglow of the sunset, several dark behemoths appeared on the coastline. Boris hurriedly picked up the Mile Mile Mile, then took a breath, and headed fortress at the forefront was a dark gray steel fortress, which was more than one hundred meters long, perhaps two hundred meters? The huge main gun on the deck was daunting. Although the distance was still far, it seemed that an inviolable pressure had already come to his face.

The flying five-ring yellow dragon flag is a force that no strong country dares to be humiliated easily in this era.

In July 1876, the Imperial South China Fleet, the Penglai, Novosibirsk, the Lahuisa, and several auxiliary ships arrived at the Port of Brisbane.

Novosibirsk and Lahuisa are cruisers of the same level with a displacement of more than 4,000 tons. Penglai is the latest heavy battleship launched by Dihui. It has all-steel armor, with a displacement of more than 13,000 tons. It is equipped with a keel to reduce the sagging, and is the most balanced hull among the main battleships of various countries with over 10,000 tons.

Although many countries, including Italy, have begun to own 10,000 tons of giant ships when they return home, the technical level of Chinese warships has always been in the world's leading position. Among the 10,000 tons of giant ships, the Penglai class is also the first batch of main battleships with a speed of more than 17 knots.

Using the three-inflated engine that has been extremely mature in the Imperial Return Country, the Penglai maximum speed can even reach the old festival, while the coal consumption during cruising speed is only 1 ton/1 hour/76 knots, which is an extremely amazing thermal efficiency value.

The Penglai coal reserve capacity is 1,000 tons, the normal capacity is 1,200 tons, and the maximum load capacity is 1,510 tons; the endurance is 14 knots, 3,325 knots/13 knots, 5,120 knots/10 knots.

For the Nanyang Fleet, which is headed in Manila, the Penglai can completely deliver force to the entire Nanyang-based Australian area without relying on coal ships and thermal supply points.

The Penglai armed system is equipped with 4 350mm caliber Giant Wave A main gun (67 tons, breeze loading): 10 Fengbo fourth-generation 150mm caliber rapid-fire guns; 14 60mm and 45mm rapid-fire guns; 7 400mm torpedo tubes, including 2 underwater side launch tubes, 4 water side launch tubes and 1 water ship tail launch tube.

Among them, the Giant Wave A main gun is nearly 11 meters long and weighs 67 tons. The rifle is a right-hand rifle; the pitch angle is +13-5, and the weight of the chalk projectile exceeds a thousand pounds: the initial velocity of the muzzle reaches 628 meters/sec; the muzzle energy: the rate of fire is 1 round/2 minutes.

What is particularly commendable is its armor-breaking ability. The test result is that it can penetrate 285 mm of Krupp steel armor at a distance of more than 2500 meters.

In addition to various conventional armors with the latest technologies of imperial return to China, the Penglai armor system uses silver steel armor as the upper armour on the side between the main deck and the central deck, which is also the world's first.

It can be said that the Penglai gathered the great achievements of the light industry technology of the Imperial Reward Heavy Industry. It is only when the artillery system and material system are changing with each passing day. Almost every ten years, the most advanced ships will become outdated products. Therefore, the Imperial Reward did not produce Penglai-class battleships in large quantities. The limited naval military expenditure is always used on the edge. In terms of the total tonnage of the navy, the Imperial Reward has always lagged far behind the United Kingdom.

But at least for now, the Penglai can be said to be a relay product among the world's naval forces, and it is the most advanced ship among the naval powers. Perhaps it also represents a watershed in naval technology. It aroused the world's amazement during its trial voyage. The Germans once invited the Penglai to visit Hamburg, but the Royal Navy politely declined by the emperor's return to the country.

Now, the Penglai appears in Brisbane, and it is conceivable that the panic caused by Australians can be imagined.

Almost as the Penglai appeared at the port, the Brisbane army returned to the police and dispatched the crowds of people who were showing signs of power and the riots. At the same time, they sent out officials to contact the Emperor's fleet of return to the country and asked about the intentions of the Royal Navy.

As for the Australian water police, they had avoided it from a distance to avoid fire from being fired by guns. The trade merchant ships were also docked and left the shore in a state of trepidation. Fortunately, the Royal Navy of the Chinese Chamber did not harass any merchant ships.

Boss Su and the clerks of the business helped to solve the problem. Under Boss Su, she took a small sampan to board the Penglai. For safety reasons, Miss Ross was quickly picked up on the boat.

The person who led the squadron to Brisbane was Lieutenant General of the Royal Navy, the admiral of the Nanyang Fleet and the captain of the Penglai. He also brought telegrams from the emperor and the imperial concubine.

In the lounge on the second floor deck, Boss Su met Li Chengmou and his sister's letter to him. He was slightly stunned when he read it. In the letter, the matchmaker asked him to cooperate sincerely with Li Chengmou to contact the Brisbane government to find a safe reunion area for the Chinese. According to the Tanghui Street in San Francisco as a precedent, a Chinese area is set up in Brisbane city. As for the Jinpi Gold Mining Area, land can be rented as a Chinese reunion area. The Chinese labor group will reunite and organize joint defense. Of course, everything must be approved by the local government.

The matchmaker also said in the letter that it is inappropriate to evacuate Chinese workers and it is not easy to work overseas, so how can we leave? Of course, the Chinese businessmen are kind and voluntarily invested in evacuation and returned to their compatriots. This should be commended.

The evacuation of Chinese workers was a personal behavior of Mr. Su and Chinese businessmen. There was no instruction from Beijing to return to Beijing, but Boss Su was still a little surprised to see this letter.

Li Chengmou said at this time: "The Imperial Concubine has generated electricity for you several times, but it is like a rock sinking into the sea. I think it is because your connection with the outside world has been cut off by the Australians."

Boss Su nodded slightly, so it was not difficult to explain why the fleet of Emperor returning to the country had arrived, but he was completely unaware of it.

This time, Li Chengmou knew Boss Su's identity, so he was more polite to Boss Su. Speaking of which, the Imperial Concubine only had one brother, but was willing to live in seclusion overseas. Why isn't it admirable?

While the two were talking, a sailor came to report that the Australians returned to governor Cook, who wanted to board the ship to visit. Li Chengmou asked Boss Su: "Will you see him now or wait and burn a few fires? Reply, is he a local governor? But he is also very humble." Su Guojiu has been in Brisbane for many years and is familiar with the Australian temperament. This negotiation is led by him.

Mr. Su said: "I don't know anything about the military. The local area is a barren land. Australians advocate self-reliance. The people are noble and noble. The first time I return to the governor of the self-reliance is, not to mention the governor of the British in Hong Kong, it is even worse than the consultant of Brunei. He has to do everything himself. Mr. Cook, who is sweet-mouthed, actually wishes to drive all Chinese out of Australia."

Li Chengmou smiled and said, "So that's it, so let's roast him on low heat?"

Mr. Su said: "It should have been like this, but there are many Chinese who are stranded in the gold mining area. If this matter is not resolved for a day, they will be worried about it for a day."
