Chapter 21: The Flag
Under the cover of night, the Black Pearl quietly landed in a remote corner, avoiding the defenses of the Seventh Sea Town Guard. Then in Jenina's reluctant look, Zhu Li said goodbye to Jenina and set foot in the well-known Huangpu Sea.
The Seventh Town Guard Mansion is located in the Huangpu Sea, one of the seven major seas of mankind. The Huangpu Naval Academy is located in a concave circular peninsula in the southernmost part of the Huangpu Sea.
A bluestone paved road stretches and disappears farther away on the peninsula, on one side of the bluestone road is a neat shrub green plant, outside this green plant is the most famous bay in the Nanpu sea area, Crescent Bay, this beautiful beach is not satisfied with the fine white sand everywhere, people just step on these fine white sand and move a little, these fine white sand will make a squeaky slag sound, the crisp sound is like a gentle singing. So Crescent Bay Beach has a more interesting name, which is called Singing Beach.
On the other side of the road, there are green brick buildings with mottled walls, and these weather-beaten buildings are covered with turquoise vines and plants that weave into different shapes on the ancient buildings. The architecture and plants that complement each other exude an atmosphere of tranquility and tranquility. People can't help but like it at a glance.
On both sides of the road, street lamps made of wooden poles are erected every ten meters, and a long row of street lamps stretches further along the road in two graceful arcs along both sides of the road. If you wait until night, these yellow-lit street lamps become the best decoration of the city. It will make this road more beautiful.
The boy who walked from the slum to the city was dazzled. This is the Huangpu Sea! This is the Seventh Town Warden! This is where the Huangpu Naval Academy is located! This neat and clean city is different from the Bauhinia Harbor that accompanied him to grow up, and the messy and dirty Bauhinia Harbor is not a poor and backward countryside compared to the beautiful and tidy city in front of him?
The sky was already slightly bright, and Zhu Li walked along the road around the sea in front of him. At the other end of the peninsula is the main entrance of the Huangpu Naval Academy, which occupies most of the entire peninsula. The peninsula that could be seen at a glance was already two hours later when Zhu Li walked along the road to the gate of the finish line.
The first thing that catches your eye is the huge plaza in front of the main entrance of the Huangpu Naval Academy, which is about the size of two football fields and has a stone floor like white jade. In the center of the square, a sixteen-meter-tall marble sculpture of Fubo the Great stands tall. This stone statue of the Great Emperor, meticulously carved by a famous sculptor, is full of meaning. The Emperor's slashed face in a naval uniform was grim, showing the Emperor's ice-like ruthlessness towards the deep-sea fleet. The corners of the Emperor's mouth twitched slightly, it was the Emperor's disdainful attitude towards the deep-sea fleet and his silent mockery. The emperor's left hand is on the brim of the navy's hat, and his right hand is stretched out diagonally to the sea at 45 degrees, which is an allusion to the great spirit of the emperor who single-handedly blocked the deep sea and twisted the world! Although it is only a sculpture, every part of this meticulously carved sculpture shows the majesty and immortal spirit of the emperor.
On the stone platform below the sculpture, there is also a line of dragon flying and phoenix dancing, vigorous and powerful handwriting, which is carved according to the few handwritten letters left by the emperor.
If the purpose of the ship's mother is not to guard (shai) protect (chuan), it will be meaningless!
The Emperor's handwriting is always philosophical. Well, but what the hell is the strange symbol marked after the word guardian? Zhu Li only felt puzzled, and every thing that the emperor left seemed to have a deep meaning. His intuition told him that there must be something intriguing and peculiar in these strange symbols.
In front of the sculpture are three slender flagpoles, on which three wide flags are fluttering in the wind. The middle side has a blue base, and in the center of the flag is a lion's head scepter and a shield deck crossed into the emblem. This is the national flag 'Guardian Scepter' flag designed by Emperor Fubo based on the outfits of two wedding ships. The scepter on the flag is the lion-headed scepter in the hands of the battleship 'Lion', one of the Emperor's wedding ships. The shield is the shield of the Lord's other wedding ship, the aircraft carrier Lexington, which is embodied on the deck. Zhu Li's Pirate Town Guard's screen also has this icon of a scepter and shield crossed on the screen to boot up. This is also a sign that the Fubo Empire has lasted for more than 500 years.
The flag on the left is a blue and white flag on the top and bottom, and in the middle of the flag is a black battleship breaking through the waves. This flag is the Admiral's Free Navy Flag, and this flag was also designed by Fubo the Great, implying that the Admiral's will should not be bound by rights and desires, and as a Admiral, a warship commander, he should command his warship to sail all over the world.
The flag on the right is light yellow, with a light yellow background, and the academy flag of the Huangpu Naval Academy composed of gears, anchors, wrenches, and gun barrels in the middle. This flag has many meanings, the anchor symbolizes the construction of the battleship, the gear symbolizes the transformation of the battleship, the wrench symbolizes the repair of the battleship, and the gun barrel symbolizes the development of equipment. The first dean of the Naval Academy, who designed such a flag, wanted to tell the future admirals through such a banner that all the glory of the admiral comes from the ship's mother who gets along day and night, and protecting her own ship's mother is to protect her own glory.
And these three flags represent the school motto that Huangpu Naval Academy has adhered to for 500 years: freedom, equality, fraternity, bravery, protection, and glory!
Zhu Li looked at the towering sculpture and flagpole, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time. This kind of academy is where you should be. These three flags carrying the will of the Admiral are the inheritance of faith that the Admiral should regard as glory!
Bypassing the sculpture in front of the square, Zhu Li came to the front of the gate of the academy. The wide school gate is extraordinary, and the deck-shaped buildings on both sides of the gate spread out diagonally to the sky, like an eagle with wings spread and soaring freely in the sky.
Zhu Li calmly stepped into this school gate like wings, and only felt that every inch of land under his feet was so sacred. How many good battleship commanders have been trained on this land? They appeared on the front line of the fight against deep-sea warships one after another, using their contracted ships and even their own flesh and blood to build a steely Great Wall for the human beings guarding behind them! They are the heroes of mankind, the commanders of warships on the mission of protecting mankind, and they have a common name - Admiral!
