Eagle Sauce: The 055 destroyer was launched into the sea just after the founding of the country?

The sun is shining brightly across the Xingzhou Strait.

Amidst the hypocritical and enthusiastic farewell of the South Vietnamese monkey people, the Dragon Kingdom fleet left South Vietnam.

Then it slowly sailed into the colonial port which was called "Pearl of the Far East" by John's people.

The huge silhouette of the "Kunpeng" aircraft carrier was projected on the sea, making it particularly eye-catching in this port accustomed to the warships of the John Kingdom.

In the harbor, several cruisers and destroyers of the John Kingdom's Royal Navy seemed a little cramped.

These warships that once dominated this sea area are like a group of old and frail old men in front of the modern fleet of Longguo.

"Report to the commander," the chief of staff walked over to Jiang Chaoyang, "The John Kingdom's Governor-General's Office in Singapore has sent an inquiry telegram asking about the purpose of our trip."

Jiang Chaoyang stood on the bridge, looking at this prosperous colonial city.

Tall British-style buildings stand side by side, and the docks are bustling with people of all colors.

But beneath this bustling scene, he could sense an atmosphere of tension that was difficult to conceal.

"Tell them," Jiang Chaoyang said calmly, "we are just passing through and want to resupply and rest."

“Of course, if the John Country garrison wants to visit our fleet, we would also be very welcome to do so.”

This news soon reached the Governor's Office of Singapore.

In the Governor's office, several senior military officers from the John Kingdom were studying photos of the Dragon Kingdom fleet with serious expressions.

That 80,000-ton aircraft carrier and those brand-new destroyers all indicate the rise of an emerging maritime power.

"This isn't just a 'passing by,'" a John Navy captain said with gritted teeth. "This is clearly a flex of muscle!"

But they also knew that facing this huge modern fleet, the few old warships of John's Far East Fleet were simply unable to stop it.

What's more, they had just received news from Xigong - the "friendly exercises" of the Dragon Kingdom fleet there had shocked the entire Southeast Asia.

Different from the widespread misery in the Governor's Mansion.

On the streets of Xingzhou, the Dragon Clan settlements were in an uproar.

People flocked to the port to catch a glimpse of the legendary Dragon Kingdom fleet.

When they saw the huge aircraft carrier, everyone exclaimed in amazement.

"Look! That's the Dragon Country's aircraft carrier!"

"Much bigger than John's warships!"

"I heard that in Xigong, their fighter planes flattened a mountain..."

Discussions arose one after another.

In the eyes of these Singapore Dragon people, the arrival of the Dragon Kingdom fleet is not only a military display, but also an awakening of national pride.

For the first time, they felt that the East could also be so powerful, and its naval power was in no way inferior to that of the West.

Jiang Chaoyang looked at the dense crowd at the port and a smile appeared on his lips.

He knew that the effect of this "passing by" Singapore had been achieved.

No drills are needed, no artillery fire is needed.

The mere existence of this fleet is enough to make John's people understand that this sea area is no longer a place they can dominate.

"Pass my order," he said to the chief of staff, "to have the 'Garden Falcon' formation prepare for routine training."

"It was conducting a high-altitude flyby over Singapore."

"Yes!"

Soon, the silver "Saker Falcon" fighter took off from the deck of the aircraft carrier.

They drew graceful arcs in the blue sky of Singapore, and the roar of their engines shook the entire city.

On the balcony of the Governor's Mansion of John Country, several officers looked at the scene with grim expressions.

They knew this was not just a "routine training" but a clear signal.

The landscape of Southeast Asia is undergoing earth-shaking changes!

In the Singapore Governor's Palace, Governor John Nicholson, who also saw this scene, had an extremely ugly expression on his face.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the huge Dragon Kingdom fleet in the port, his fists clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound.

"This is simply outrageous!" He turned sharply. "Send a military attaché immediately to warn them. This provocative behavior must stop immediately!"

A military attaché from the Kingdom of John quickly boarded the Kunpeng.

He straightened his back and spoke in a condescending tone.

"Governor Nicholson demands that you immediately cease all military activities in Singapore's airspace."

"This is John's colony, not a place where you can casually show off your military power!"

Seeing the other person's arrogant expression.

Jiang Chaoyang stood on the bridge with a sneer on his face.

"interesting."

"Our Dragon Fleet was originally here for a friendly visit. If you don't say anything, this matter will just pass."

His eyes suddenly became sharp.

"But since you're talking to me like that, don't blame me for bringing up some old issues."

Jiang Chaoyang walked to the porthole and pointed at Xingzhou Island.

"Tell your governor that this land was a vassal state of our Dragon Kingdom when Zheng He sailed to the West more than 500 years ago."

"Look at this island. How many dragons are still living here? This is the best proof."

He turned around, his eyes blazing.

"You bandits are simply taking advantage of the civil unrest in our Dragon Kingdom to seize this land."

"Now you really think you're the master of this place?"

The face of the military officer of John Country turned pale: "Watch your words! This is John Country..."

"John's what?"

Jiang Chaoyang interrupted him with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"Since you are so confident, why don't we put an end to this?"

"Let's fight right here in this sea. Whoever wins will be the master of this place. How about it?"

These words were like a heavy hammer, turning John's military officer's face pale in an instant.

He knew too well the gap in strength between John's Far East Fleet and Dragon's Fleet.

That huge aircraft carrier, those modern destroyers, and those terrifying "Haidongqing" fighter planes...

"You...you are threatening the Great Hard Empire!"

The military officer's voice trembled slightly.

Jiang Chaoyang burst into laughter.

"A threat? I'm just stating a fact."

"Don't you always boast about being 'civilized'? Now, I will solve the problem the way you are most familiar with - speaking with strength."

He walked up to the military officer and looked down at him condescendingly.

"Go back and tell your governor that I'll give him an hour to consider. Either accept the challenge, or..."

He pointed at the "Saker Falcon" fighter plane circling in the sky.

"Let's show the people of Singapore what real air power is. Just like what we did in Xigong."

Cold sweat broke out on the military officer's forehead.

Of course he had heard about the Dragon Fleet's "exercise" in Xigong. The hilltop that was razed to the ground by the terrorist bomb was the best proof.

"I...I will convey your message."

The military officer took a few steps back and left in a hurry.

Jiang Chaoyang turned and looked at the skyline of Xingzhou.

This colony, which John's people called the "Pearl of the Far East", was like a fruit about to ripen in his eyes.

And this steel fleet is the sharpest sword in his hand.

"Pass my orders," he said to the chief of staff, "to prepare all ships for battle."

"Let John's people see what it means when fortunes change, and when things change!"

"Yes!"

The alarm sounded on the fleet and the soldiers quickly took up their battle positions.

On the streets of Xingzhou, countless dragon people looked up at the Dragon Kingdom fighter planes in the sky, with anticipation glittering in their eyes.

They knew that a moment that would change history was about to come.
