Xinier was also conflicted, but there was no use in agonizing over it!
In this situation, the strength of the Great Liang completely overwhelmed his own country, and saying anything else was utterly useless; the two sides were simply not in the same league.
If Her Majesty the Queen insists on going her own way, then let her abdicate.
If she really causes trouble, it won't just be a matter of a few people dying, it will be a matter of millions dying, so I've decided that I can't let that happen.
Although he himself didn't care much, his family was still in the Xinma Empire, so he had to be careful and absolutely couldn't let his family perish there.
"Forehead..."
The deputy envoy instinctively wanted to object, but the words stuck in his throat.
He also wanted to remain loyal to Her Majesty the Empress, but reality left him no choice; if he continued to follow her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
If things go wrong, the entire empire could be destroyed, and then the enraged Lin Yi could wipe out the whole country, leaving him with no chance of survival.
The three exchanged glances, a tacit understanding suddenly forming in their hearts: this matter absolutely could not be allowed to proceed recklessly within the country.
To plot against the emperor of Great Liang was absolutely out of the question; the consequences would be unimaginable. After all, the reputation of the Great Liang emperor was earned through bloodshed, and that was no joke.
Why!
Meanwhile, Li Siyuan and Li Yifeng on the other side were also dumbfounded, feeling completely numb.
Li Yifeng said with a wry smile, "You also work in the imperial court, but did you know that the warships of Great Liang have reached such a level? This is simply magnificent. The combat power of this ironclad warship is so formidable."
If my father's army had encountered them back then, this one warship would probably have been enough to annihilate tens of thousands of naval forces on the Min River. It's incredibly powerful."
His father was the Prince of Min, who controlled a large navy, but in front of this warship, those naval forces felt incredibly vulnerable.
Their combat power is simply too formidable; they are practically unmatched.
Li Siyuan nodded heavily and said in a deep voice, "I've never seen this thing before either. Now that I've seen it, I even have a slight desire to control it in battle."
With such power, who could possibly withstand it? It's practically indestructible.
Once you master him, who in the All Under Heaven can stand against you? He is an invincible being, inspiring awe and longing in all.
Li Yifeng was both amused and exasperated. He hadn't expected his brother to abandon his desire to keep a low profile and start venturing out to sea to fight.
That makes sense, though. With just this one warship, taking it out to fight would surely be exhilarating, and who could resist that?
He couldn't help but catch a glimpse of the emperor over there, and was utterly astonished. This man had single-handedly built the Great Liang Empire into its current invincible state; he was truly remarkable.
Given the current situation, the Li Imperial Clan probably has no chance of turning things around, and he must also think about his descendants.
Even if he himself could not join the Great Liang Empire's camp, his sons and grandsons would certainly have to join, otherwise they would have no future whatsoever.
"Good!"
Lin Yi couldn't help but applaud. With the addition of this iron-headed steamship, the strength of the Great Liang navy would surely be further enhanced.
With such powerful firepower, what is the Moses Empire? Even three Moses Empire wouldn't be enough to defeat them. As long as there are enough weapons and ammunition, they can completely sweep everything aside. The two sides are not even on the same level.
Thinking of this, he said excitedly, "Minister Ma, this kind of iron-hulled steamship is extremely powerful. Push this technology to the shipyards immediately. I want them to build one hundred of these ironclad ships as quickly as possible. Then we will be able to sweep everything away."
Although building this warship is difficult, if there are many shipyards, then the difficulty becomes easy, because the task is distributed among many shipyards, and naturally it becomes less difficult.
As long as this power can be maintained, its strength is beyond doubt.
As for the issue of survival, needless to say, these warships were originally operated by the Great Liang government, and everything was under the surveillance of the Net of Heaven), so there were no security risks whatsoever, let alone any technology leaks.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, our technology is basically mature, and all the necessary components have been disseminated. We will be able to mass-produce it soon!" Ma Jun nodded and smiled.
For him, preparations began after demonstrating the feasibility of the ship, and now the technology is finally ready.
Once the technology matures, its adoption becomes much faster. After all, in the past, we were feeling our way across the river, but now that we've crossed it, the methods are clear.
Now that Heavenly Craft Workshop is under the Royal Academy of Sciences, with the technical support of the academy, its development speed is incredibly fast.
This is very different from before. In the past, I would conduct research alone, but now I can think outside the box, so the research and development speed has become much faster.
Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction and smiled, " The Royal Academy of Sciences has truly not disappointed me. This time, everyone in the Academy has been rewarded. They will receive a month's salary and be promoted one rank."
Core personnel will receive a six-month salary bonus and a two-level promotion. We hope you will continue your efforts!
He is never stingy when it comes to such talent. They must be rewarded, their compensation must be improved, and they must be given sufficient respect and influence so that their research capabilities will be strengthened.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I thank the Emperor on their behalf for the reward. I'm sure they'll be very happy." Ma Jun's eyes lit up. With these rewards, his subordinates would surely work even harder.
Hearing their words, Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh. Compared to the productivity they had unleashed, his reward was nothing at all; it was a worthwhile deal.
Lin Rusong, standing to the side, couldn't help but agree, saying, "The people from the Royal Academy of Sciences have indeed created something amazing this time. With this ironclad warship, our Great Liang is now invincible. I hope they can create even more."
Thinking about it now, if hundreds of these warships had actually been built, they would have been absolutely unstoppable. Just thinking about it makes my blood boil.
The scene must have been spectacular; the enemy would probably have been trembling with fear.
"It's a pity we're too old, otherwise I really would like to see that scene," Bai Zizai sighed, somewhat regretfully.
Since returning this time, his health has been deteriorating. Some old injuries have flared up, causing him pain all over his body. Although several renowned doctors have helped him recuperate, the damage to his vital energy is too severe, making it unrealistic for him to fight again.
