In this way, the Southeast Fleet intensified its training almost frantically, implementing the training method of "moon, moon, fire, water, wood, gold" (i.e., no rest days), and conducting a large number of in-ship comparisons, such as the simulated firing and live-fire exercises conducted by various gun squads on a ship, so that they could enjoy the officers' meals and mop the floors and clean the toilets.

Every week, according to the results, praise is given, and certain spiritual encouragement and material rewards are given, and as a proof of promotion.

Those artillery squads that have been at the bottom of the list for a long time will be readjusted in their work, and they will no longer be allowed to shoot artillery, and the survival of the fittest will be practiced.

Then the ships competed, and each ship took turns attacking the target to see who could hit the most accurately, and sometimes the best gun squad of each ship was concentrated and went up to the Southeast to conduct a contest.

In other cases, ships of the same class compete in racing competitions, and the winners are rewarded, praised and recorded in the archives to encourage everyone's self-motivation.

It has set off a frenzy of big martial arts competition and big military training!

All the warships carried out intense, repetitive, and monotonous training in maritime combat skills day and night, and the main subjects were shelling, navigation (with emphasis on ship manipulation and sail cables), gang jumping operations, and gun battles, as well as rescue, damage management, and boat ferrying, and they carried out high-speed maneuver training and long-distance sailing training at sea.

The training time is long, although the wind is strong on the sea, it is hot, and the sun is fierce!

At one or two o'clock in the afternoon, the scorching sunlight made the battleship look like a huge oven, and the personnel could not rest in the cabin at all.

Fortunately, Yan Changwu attaches great importance to logistics support, and there are units of logistics ships in the fleet sequence, and the number is constantly increasing.

They are like hard-working worker bees, delivering fresh water, fresh food, and all kinds of supplies to the ships that are training intensively, and all the officers and men can eat hot meals, fresh fish, meat, eggs, and fruits and vegetables.

Eating and drinking very well, after such a training, everyone actually gained weight!

The superiors are willing to spend money, why don't the subordinates give up their lives to accompany each other!

In the arduous environment, the officers and men withstood the situation, their training level was constantly improved, and the speed of firing artillery increased by leaps and bounds from more than four minutes to one shell fired in three or two minutes.

That's average, pretty good.

To reach the extreme, no matter how much you practice, you can't improve, Mr. David said: "It takes a certain amount of talent, and it takes a longer period of training, sometimes the rate of fire will regress, but after all, it will still improve, practice!" ”

I had no choice but to continue to practice hard and not relax, and when I returned to Hong Kong, the people on the shore almost didn't dare to accept them... All of them have become black!

……

At the same time that the Southeast Fleet launched a large-scale military training, the Fujian Navy Division was also intensively conducting training.

At the Zhongzuo Institute (the official name of the Xiamen garrison), troops from all over Fujian arrived one after another, and intense training was also carried out.

This time, the governor Zhu Yifeng was ambitious and wanted to do a big job, reinterpreting the incident of the Fujian people beating away the Dutch in Penghu, so as to go down in history.

Therefore, the Fujian sailor asks for money and things, and is generous.

Yu Zhihao, the chief soldier of coastal defense, was far more sober than him, and said to his staff in private: "The main ships of the Southeast Province are all plywood ships with red hair, the ships are fierce, and they are not easy to deal with, and the sea is vast, no matter how many warships there are, it is in vain, Governor Zhu is bent on fighting, and the soldiers are in danger, doesn't he know?" It's a shame that he is still a two-rank jinshi! ”

He said distressedly: "It should be safe, now our people can't enter, and the intelligence of the Southeast Mansion is lacking, so this battle is not easy to fight." ”

That's right, the Southeast Mansion is Yan Dashao as the big leader, theoretically the entire Southeast Mansion is his, and under an order, all foreign trade can only go to Beigang, and other places are under military control!

When the ship arrived at the military area without permission, it was all detained without discussion, and all the personnel were sent to the battlefield for labor reform.

In Beigang, the dogs are densely packed: uniformed policemen, plainclothes policemen, Chaoyang aunts, joint defense and joint management, and even a fly can't fly.

The Fujian Navy Division did not know the intelligence of the Southeast Prefecture at all, but the Southeast Prefecture knew their preparations very well.

Moreover, due to the corruption of officialdom, the troops have not practiced for a long time, and Yu Zhihao also thinks that the soldiers are fast, but he can't move the troops, his soldier quality is too poor, the artillery is not accurate, the bow and arrow are poor, and he is timid when he jumps to fight in the past, etc., what.

Compared with the speed of the warships of the Southeast Province and the speed of their ships, well, speaking of the speed of the ships, he once looked at the high platform on the shore and found that the warships of the Southeast Province were running fast, obviously well-trained, and their own warships were far inferior!

I had no choice but to train.

Then there are jumping gang battles, using guns and cannons, all of them must be skilled, and he is anxious and urges his subordinates to train all day long.

And his subordinates, full of complaints, did a good job of anti-smuggling along the coast of Fujian, and bullied those bare-bottomed boatmen with no clothes to wear, with more money, less work, no danger, how good!

Why do you have to fight for life and death, but also fight across the strait, the wind and waves are strong, in case it hangs up, how can the imperial court military department have any pension, and it is not that you don't know the virtue of the imperial court.

There are a lot of people who say cool things (hehe, the Southeast Intelligence Bureau is in action!). ): The officials of the imperial court are not sympathetic to the life and death of the soldiers in order to go to the next level in their black gauze hats, this Taiwan is a foreign land, and it has never been managed by the imperial court, how can it be managed so much, and it is actually a lot of things to fight across the strait!

As a result, before the war started, the Fujian Navy Division was already in a bad situation: grinding foreign workers, pretending, lazy, saying strange things, not actively training, one thing in front of the face, one thing behind the back.

Compared with the crazy training of "Moon, Moon, Fire, Water, Wood, Gold and Gold" implemented by the Southeast Prefecture, there has not yet been a war, and it is clear where the balance of victory is tilting!
