The airship was flying over the vast Black Sea. When the sun came out, the red coastline appeared in the pilot's eyes.

"We need to take a clearer picture later! These things must be presented directly to the commander for viewing." the pilot said to the photographer behind him.

This is the Ming Dynasty’s routine investigation of Yisele!

Relying on its control of the Bosporus, Ming Dynasty would send an airship to Sevastopol every time the weather was fine.

The Hebrews protested many times against the Ming Dynasty, but the Ming Dynasty insisted that as long as the airship did not land on the land of Sevastopol, it would not be considered an invasion.

If the Hebrews dared to interfere with the navigation of the Ming airship, the Ming Dynasty would block the Bosporus and prevent all ships from entering the Black Sea.

This is so fatal. During the last war against the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ming Dynasty closed the Bosporus Strait.

As a result, all Israeli merchant ships were unable to go to sea. Outside aid was unable to reach Yisela.

navy!

The Ming Dynasty's navy now truly spans the world, and no country's navy is a rival to the Ming Dynasty's navy.

Even if all the countries in the world unite, they are no match for the Ming Dynasty's navy.

It firmly controlled the sea power, controlled Gibraltar, the Suez Canal, Singapore and other strategic points.

It can be said that the Ming Dynasty controlled the entire ocean!

A small place like the Black Sea is not to mention. What's more, the Ottoman Empire is an undisclosed vassal of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty asked the Ottoman Empire to go east, but they would never dare to go west. It was just blocking a strait, which was not a big deal.

But Israel is different. They need access to the sea. They desperately need external assistance!

Every day, cargo ships travel between the Bosporus Strait.

Countless supplies donated by Hebrews from all over the world were shipped to Sevastopol by sea.

The Bosporus was a hurdle that the Hebrews could not overcome.

Forced by the Ming Dynasty's threat, the Hebrews could only dare to watch the airship hovering over Sevastopol all day long, and then eject a burst of black smoke as if to demonstrate, returning to their home in Junshi.

The base of Fort Tantino.

It's the same today, except today. The airship is loaded with a new type of equipment, a high-precision camera.

This kind of camera used for aerial photography on airships just completed its final test last month. This is the first time it has been carried out on an overseas mission!

If aerial cameras were really useful, they would take aerial photos over Sevastopol every day so they could take them back for research.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the sun was neither strong nor dim. The camera kept taking pictures downwards on the airship!

After shooting for half an hour, and after taking pictures of all the important targets, the airship swayed away.

After flying back to Constantinople, these photos were developed as quickly as possible. Then, together with people who knew Sevastopol, they were put on an airship and flew directly to the Ming Dynasty.

Starting from Constantinople, the airship will fly all the way to India, then transfer to Siam and fly directly to Hainan. Then, it will depart from Hainan and fly to the capital.

This is a long journey. Although the airship is the fastest transportation vehicle in the world, it will take at least five days and five nights to go all the way.

You can sleep on an airship, but floating in the sky all day long will ultimately make you feel uneasy. Therefore, this job can be described as a standard drudgery.

Li Xiao looked at the aerial photos on his desk. The clarity was incomparable to those of later generations.

Fortunately, the airship can hover in the air, and it can also lower its altitude unscrupulously.

This just makes up for the shortcomings of the aerial camera. Although the photos taken are not so clear, they can still be seen clearly.

"Commander! This is the Hebrew thermal power station. One was built last year. This year, another one was built in the other direction.

If this thermal power station is completed and put into use, there will no longer be any shortage of electricity in the entire Sevastopol."

The messenger pointed to the chimney that was emitting thick smoke in the photo and said to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao knew at a glance that this was an aerial photo of a power station. The huge cooling tower was so obvious that it was impossible to admit his mistake.

"Have the Hebrews developed to this point?" Li Xiao looked at the photo in his hand and couldn't help but feel worried.

The Hebrews are really powerful. In just two years, they have built two thermal power stations, although one of them has not yet been connected to the grid to generate electricity.

But looking at the construction progress, the construction and power generation will be completed by the end of this year anyway. In that way, Sevastopol will no longer have to worry about electricity.

Electricity, as opposed to traditional energy, is becoming more and more important.

Lighting at night requires electricity, and even more electricity is needed to drive large motors.

Motors are used in many places. Daming motors are strictly exported products. Every motor manufactured by Daming has a serial number engraved with a steel seal.

Every numbered motor is an important target of protection. If one is missing, it will be a serious crime of decapitation.

In this case, no one can take the motor away from Daming.

Motors have always been Daming's technical advantage. But now, this technical advantage has probably been broken.

Otherwise, no one can explain why the Hebrews built power plants on a large scale. Civil lighting alone would never use so much electricity.

And it seems that the Hebrews have quite mature ideas about using electricity. There are no telephone poles on the streets, and all wires have special cable trenches.

This not only ensures that no one can connect privately but also effectively resists detection, preventing people from knowing where the transmission lines are buried.

"The port of Sevastopol at night can already be illuminated by electric lights. This year, we also generated electricity for large tower cranes and traces.

You see, these must be large tower cranes. But when they saw our airship arriving, they got the warning and hid them.

But judging from the outline under the canvas, it must be a large tower crane used in ports."

Seeing the photo of the tower crane, Li Xiao knew that the secret of the motor was no longer a secret.

It was Luzhu's responsibility to find out how the technology was leaked. Li Xiao was very puzzled as to who dared to leak such a super secret.

I have made up my mind that as long as this bastard is found out, no matter who is behind him, he will be dead.

"The Hebrews mastered the secret of electricity so quickly and even invented a motor. Can you find out where their technology came from?" Li Xiao just asked casually, not expecting anyone to answer him.

After all, although the Ming Dynasty's intelligence tentacles reached all over the world, the Ming Dynasty really did not successfully develop an intelligence network in Yisi.

The reason is very simple, that is, the Hebrews are too united.

The suffering of oppression for thousands of years has made every Hebrew hope for a motherland.

After thousands of years, this wish finally came true. How could the Hebrews, who were bleeding like chickens, betray their homeland?

The Ming Dynasty spent a lot of effort and money among the Hebrews, but most of the information they got was false information.

Even some of the reliable ones are half-truths and half-falsehoods.

Although Li Xiao successfully instigated Kafka Jr.'s rebellion, his words cannot be fully believed. After all, the existence of Israel as a whole is in the interest of all Hebrews.

It is impossible for the Kafka family to completely turn to the Ming Dynasty just for money.

Li Xiao is more inclined to believe that Kafka Jr. was a double agent.

"We found out that they are engineers from the North American Territory. Our people there are already investigating to what extent the new technology in the North American Territory has developed.

The latest news hasn't been sent back yet, you know. There are no Han Chinese faces in the North American territories, so it's very difficult to break into them."

"North American Territory?" Li Xiao immediately remembered that little Kafka once said that Franklin, who came from the North American Territory, was definitely the leader in the entire West in researching the use of electricity.

Unexpectedly, research on electricity in North America has progressed so quickly.

"Yes! Now those who are helping the Hebrews install electrical facilities are all engineers from the North American territories. There are about forty people in total!"

"You even know the number of people so clearly?" Li Xiao asked in surprise.

As far as he knew, the Ming Dynasty's intelligence network in Sevastopol was not developed.

"Thanks to the Russians."

"Russian?" Li Xiao was a little confused.

"Yes! At the beginning of their occupation of Sevastopol, the Hebrews carried out a bloody massacre of the Russians.

The Russians hate the Hebrews, and now Russia is on our side. It is difficult to instigate the Hebrews, but it is much easier to instigate the Russians.

Those engineers from the North American territories like to drink and find women very much, and Russian women... are very popular with them.

Our intelligence was obtained from the mouths of these Russian women."

"That's it. Continue to pay close attention to every move in Sevastopol. I tell you, Commander, don't be impatient.

The Ming Dynasty has not yet freed up its hands to deal with the Hebrews. It is impossible to deal with them with your navy alone.

Everything will be decided after the construction of the Central Asia Railway is completed."

Li Xiao knew what Li Xiu meant by sending this envoy, and Li Xiu couldn't help but take action against the Hebrews.

Li Xiao had no doubt that Li Xiu had the ability to destroy Sevastopol.

Not to mention anything else, the Ming Dynasty now has five Shanzi-class battleships. These five ships are all warships equipped with three triple-mounted 480mm naval guns!

With continuous bombardment, even if Sevastopol is a city made of iron, it will be ruthlessly destroyed.

It is easy to destroy Sevastopol, or even to conquer the entire Israel. But behind Israel, what should the Hebrew plutocrats hidden all over Europe do?

These people are all hungry wolves hiding in the dark. If anyone is not careful, they will be bitten.

"Commander, the Hebrews have been too arrogant in the past two years.
