This side of the port of Tianjin.

The 1,200 students of Tianjin Maritime Academy are dressed in uniform tight-fitting clothes, all have uniform short hair, and their faces and beards have been shaved.

But at this time, the thousand and two students were divided into ten squares, each of which had one hundred and twenty people, and each square was arranged neatly, like a chessboard, and a powerful momentum was revealed.

In addition, these people have been raised by Liu Jin's good food and vegetables for a long time, their food is not just three meals a day, every ton allows you to eat with an open belly so simple, according to Liu Jin's instructions, these maritime trainees must have meat for three meals a day, this pork, fish, chicken, duck, goose, cattle and sheep and so on have been served for several months.

At the same time, Liu Jin also carried out paramilitary training and management for these people, in addition to learning a lot of navigation knowledge, geographical knowledge, mathematical knowledge and other knowledge every day, he also needed to carry out a variety of physical training, military training, and the amount of exercise every day was very large.

Now everyone is strong and strong, even if it was Zhao Monkey, who was extremely thin before, now he has changed from a small baboon to a gorilla.

Thousands of strong people stood together, silent, and a fierce aura greeted them, making people can't help but stay away, and the voice of talking about them has become much quieter.

Liu Jin looked at the ten phalanxes in front of him, and finally didn't waste his mind in vain, during this period of time, Liu Jin spent the most time and effort on cultivating these people.

Because Liu Jin knew that whether he could go to the Golden Continent or come back with gold, silver, and high-yield crops was not a ship, nor did he know how to go, but a group of qualified sailors and a group of qualified navigators.

The 1,200 people in front of them, although they are still very immature, many of them have never even taken a boat, and some of them have only seen the sea for the first time after coming to Tianjin.

But they are 1,200 seeds, 1,200 future navigators, future colonists, and this is the greatest contribution that Liu Jinlai has made in this era.

As long as the door of navigation is opened, once the Ming court tastes the sweetness of overseas colonization and overseas trade, Liu Jin believes that even if the power of the wealthy families in the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang is huge, it will be absolutely impossible to stop this rolling historical trend.

"You are lucky because you have caught up with a good era!"

Liu Jin picked up a megaphone made of iron sheets, and the loud voice was clearly transmitted to the phalanxes in front.

The way of speaking is the same as the way of teaching here in the Maritime Academy, it is all vernacular, there is nothing to do, and there is nothing obscure, which is also what Liu Jin has been silently promoting.

There is no way, because Liu Jin has no ink in his stomach, and there is no way to quote scriptures and classics like those talents and Confucian scholars, and when he speaks, he must seem to be full of economy.

Second, Liu Jin felt that the development of Confucianism has seriously hindered the development and progress of this nation, and the maritime academy he runs must no longer use Confucian ideas to do, and must learn from future generations and promote new ideas, only in this way can he inject new vitality into this era like a backwater, and only in this way can he really succeed in running this maritime academy.

"Everyone here, maybe today, no one knows your name, but in many years' time, your name will most likely go down in history."

"Maybe you are very humble and worried about filling your stomach in the past, but in the future, each of you will become the envy of others and live a life that you never dared to think of before."

"Today is the day you go to sea, I hope you will remember that wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, dogs travel thousands of miles to eat, and you must be wolves walking in the four seas to eat meat!"

Liu Jin's voice was very high and full of passion.

"Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat!"

"Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat!"

As Liu Jin's words fell, the 1,200 students at the scene also shouted neatly one by one, and everyone seemed to have been awakened to the wolf nature in the depths of their bones, like a frightened hungry wolf, waiting to eat, and the whole scene was like a group of wolves roaring at the full moon.

"Out to sea!"

Liu Jin nodded with satisfaction, he had been working hard to continuously cultivate the wolf nature of these people.

From later generations, Liu Jin has read a lot of books about the European Age of Discovery, and some of them said why in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, which also mastered advanced navigation technology, did not take the lead in setting off the Age of Discovery, but the Europeans opened the Age of Discovery.

In the end, the Ming Dynasty continued to decline, and in the back it was occupied by foreign people, and the Europeans relied on the huge wealth accumulated in the Age of Discovery, so as to complete the primitive accumulation of capital, and finally ushered in the dawn of the industrial age, began to dominate the entire earth, occupied the vast majority of the earth's area and wealth, and sprinkled the seeds of Europeans all over the best land on the earth.

The huge difference between the two and the completely different fates have naturally caused countless people to study and discuss, and one of them is very interesting.

Some people believe that the main reason for such a huge difference between the two is due to ideology.

The Ming Dynasty was deeply influenced by Confucianism, and in his bones he was like a gentle and elegant gentleman, always polite to the outside world, and had a good face.

And the Europeans are completely different, they are pirates and robbers in their bones, everything is done around interests, as long as it is beneficial to themselves, they don't care about the means at all, and they don't care about the life or death of others at all, as long as they live well.

Therefore, Europeans have enough motivation to continue plundering and colonizing all over the world, gathering the wealth of the world into their own hands, completing the primitive capital accumulation, and leaving huge wealth for their future generations.

As for the Ming Dynasty, because of the good face and the lack of black face, many times they suffer by themselves, so that the surrounding small countries like to come to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute, because each tribute can get several times or even more than ten times the rich reward.

So that in the back, the Ming court could not bear it, and had to limit the number and scale of tribute from neighboring countries, so that naturally and slowly there was no enterprising spirit to open up on the sea, and it was inevitable to close the country.

Liu Jin feels that although this view is a bit one-sided, it also has its truth.

If you want to colonize, if you want to get rich on the sea, you can't give up your face, you can't be black, you must know that European robbers are just a few broken ships, hundreds of people, for the sake of gold, dare to catch the chief of the Indians, let the Indians fill a room with gold.

In order to facilitate their own colonization, they gave clothes with smallpox to Indians who saved their lives, and only Europeans who were robbers in their bones could do such a thing.

But it was this bandit spirit of the Europeans that made them the Age of Discovery, their abundance, and their domination of the earth.

This has to make people sigh for a long time, sure enough, those who can win and achieve great things since ancient times are absolutely shameless people who only talk about interests.

Therefore, when training and educating the trainees of the Maritime Academy, Liu Jin is also constantly instilling such a thought and a way of doing things to them, in order to cultivate their wolf nature.
