Subtitle of this chapter: Master Yuan is going to heaven!

……………………………………

"If you have a question, I'm asking next time, I'm busy with your good brother right now. Yuri, you also hope that Heinche will be able to make his way in the Navy in the future, right? ”

"Hmm...... Is my brother, my father, my sister, and my wife okay? ”

"Your family is all in order...... That's too good to be true. That's it, I went down first. ”

Our Master Yuan took off his mouthball, moved his sour jaw, straightened his clothes and hair in front of the mirror, wrapped his wound in a towel, and left the bathroom.

"Excuse me, gentlemen. I've kept you waiting. ”

As his close partner, Kennedy Sr. asked with concern, "Neo, are your hands okay?" ”

"Joseph, it's just a small injury, it's okay." Yuan Yanqian sat down and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?" ”

FDR replied, "Oh, Chester is telling Heinche about Annapolis......"

"That's right, lad. You'll be able to learn how to sail in your first year......" Lieutenant Colonel Nimitz said with great interest as a passer-by, "although the seniors you have met this year have been a little stricter, but sailing is still very interesting." ”

...... United States of America In fact, the hierarchy of the military academies of the great powers at that time was very strict, in order to cultivate the habit of obedience among the junior cadets, and at the same time to allow the senior cadets to adapt to their role as military commanders.

For example, the third-year students at the Annapolis Naval Academy began to take charge of "caring" and "guiding" the first-year students.

But, as Nimitz said, Heinche learned to sail in his first year in Annapolis, and sailing was a proper aristocratic sport, both then and a hundred years later. And for teenagers, it's also very much a sport to listen to.

So the handsome young man here listened with his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but grin the corners of his mouth, revealing a yearning expression.

"And in the second year, you will be able to go to the major fleets for summer training, which is also quite interesting......" The future commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet paused and asked casually, "Heinche, where do you want to go?" ”

"Pacific!" The young man blurted out, he glanced at Master Yuan and added, "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, I want to go to the Western Pacific." I'm very interested in Asia! ”

At this time, of course, the US imperialists did not have the Mediterranean Fleet and the Western Pacific Fleet in the future, but the Pacific Fleet had the Western Pacific Detachment stationed in the Philippines under the Pacific Fleet.

Yuan Yanqian smiled slightly, and said, "Heinche, as the only Asian here, I can guarantee that Asian girls will also be very interested in you." ”

"Hahaha......"

Several old men burst into laughter, and even old Mr. Chandler smiled, but Heinche, who was still just a child, made a big red face.

Of course, at this time, Master Yuan himself didn't know that this was a prophecy.

"Hahaha, that's true. Asian girls are really enthusiastic ......," echoed Mr. Lieutenant Admiral, continuing, "The third year is crucial for us. This annual meeting will determine your future professional direction......"

In the third year, students will go to various naval bases to get acquainted with submarines, surface forces, and marines. In 1921, naturally, there was no such setting for aviation.

I only heard Nimitz say: "Although I myself belong to the submarine force, I have to say that submarines are really not suitable for everyone......

His old man also told the truth.

Needless to say, the living conditions inside submarines in this era, the machines rumbled, the leaks ticked, and the air stinked.

Moreover, compared to the fact that the crew of a surface ship has a chance of escaping, once the submarine under water sinks, it is an iron coffin, and no one can escape.

A person with a poor psychological quality really cannot be an officer or soldier of the submarine force.

At this time, our Master Yuan interjected again: "Chester, I met Captain Henry Harry Arnold of the Army Air Corps on the train a few months ago. Do you know him? ”

The lieutenant commander muttered, "I don't know him, but I think I know him, Captain Arnold is a very famous pilot." ”

In 1912, this "second-class father" set a world record for flying altitude of 6,540 feet, which can be regarded as a small fame.

"Captain Arnold mentioned Brigadier General William Mitchell to me......"

This gentleman is the "Three Pioneers of Air Warfare Theory" on a par with Italy's Duhei and England's Hugh Trenchard. (See Volume II, Chapter 34, "Value for Money")

FDR asked: "Neo, are you talking about Brigadier General Mitchell, deputy commander of the Army Aviation Corps and chairman of the Aviation Committee?" ”

"That's right, Franklin." Yuan Yanqian nodded and said, "I personally think what he said is very reasonable, with the progress of science and technology, the role of aircraft in war will become more and more great." Perhaps it will change the shape of future wars, including the navy. ”

In fact, two months later, in July 1921, Commodore Mitchell sank the German dreadnought "East Frissiland" in 21.5 minutes with aerial bombardment, but this controversial experiment outraged Wang Shiyi and others.

But the lieutenant colonel replied calmly: "Well, I have heard this statement too. In my opinion, this is quite possible. ”

It has to be said that the future commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet is a military commander who is very good at learning and does not rest on his laurels.

In addition to lectures and exercises, he read extensively strategic and tactical works, the history of warfare, naval history, and biographies of famous people, and most importantly, he accepted the idea of a circular formation centered on aircraft carriers.

Nimitz later admitted that this study was more important than any other experience, and laid the foundation for his later assuming commanding duties.

"Even Chester said so, so ......" Our Master Yuan looked into the young man's eyes and activated his skills.

In a seductive voice, he said, "Heinche, I think you should go to flying lessons." ”

"Flying lessons?!"

FLYING IS ONE OF THE INNATE DREAMS OF HUMAN BEINGS, AND AN ADVENTUROUS TEENAGER LIKE HEINCHE WAS EVEN MORE HELD BY THIS SENTENCE, NOT TO MENTION THAT HE FELL INTO A "HYPNOSIS" AGAIN.

"Father......" The boy immediately looked expectantly at old Mr. Chandler.

In this year, even if he became an officer of the Wang Division, he had to bear the tuition fee for the flight lesson, which was not cheap.

And a hundred years later, pilots are high-risk jobs, and his father naturally hesitated and said, "This ......"

"Hahaha......" Yuan Yanqian said with a smile, "Mr. Professor, your eldest son didn't come back alive when he went to the front line of the European War, so what does it matter if your son goes to learn to fly?" ”

That's right, other people's children can't die anyway.

He turned to the boy again, "Don't worry, Heinche. Since it's my proposal, then I'll pay for your flying lessons! ”

"Thank you so much, Dr. Yuan!"

"You're welcome, Mr. Chandler."

Our Master Yuan suddenly thought that he should also learn to fly, because ......

IT'S VERY COOO...... OOOL!
