In the end, Liang Qichao and Zhang Binglin selected more than 100 backbone forces of the Baath Party in Mukden, together with Zhang Yi's 200 elite soldiers, to go south and leave Mukden. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]

In troubled times, peaceful days are destined not to be too many.

Only a little more than a month later, Liu Buyun and Yan Fuxing rushed to report to Zhang Yi that Fengtian University has been completely completed and can officially open.

In the past few months, the cadets recruited by the Naval University and the elites drawn from various units have already begun training and studying on warships, but there are no teaching facilities, and some theoretical courses are difficult to systematically develop.

Zhang Yi was very excited and laughed: "Let's go, call all our important members and go to Golden State together to attend their opening ceremony!" ”

Zhang Yi called all the important generals and many dignitaries in Shengjing and rushed to Jinzhou to inspect the Naval University.

Golden State, an imposing school rises from the ground, with dozens of buildings nestled in the courtyard of the Naval University.

The university covers an area of more than 1,000 acres, divided into teaching areas, training areas, experimental areas and living areas, countless teaching equipment has been installed, and its advanced architecture has been completely built.

Wilson has rushed back from England, and this guy has recruited hundreds of instructors and officers in various fields from Britain in one go for his commissions, and there are dozens of follow-up who will join in, and almost all of these people are elites in the British naval field.

Wilson stood next to Yan Fu, looking at the Naval University in front of him, and had to sigh that the hardware of this university was already on a par with the British Royal Navy cadets, coupled with these elites he had dug up, the rise of the navy of the Republic of China in the future was already expected.

Zhang Yi and others under the leadership of Yan Fu and Wilson, all the important positions of the Naval University, all visited, Yan Fu and Wilson acted as temporary commentators, all the teaching facilities in front of them, to Zhang Yi and others made a concise explanation, Zhang Yi listened to the frequent nod, less than half a year, the construction of the Naval University can reach the current state, but it took Yan Fu a lot of effort, there are a lot of facilities because of design problems, but also rebuilt, The progress is so fast, it can be said that it is inseparable from Yan Fu's hard work.

In the end, Zhang Yi came to the training ground accompanied by everyone, the training ground here is hundreds of acres large, used for the daily training of the Naval Academy in peacetime, in order to be closer to the truth, Yan Fu even directly moved a warship that was about to be retired to the playground as a whole, which was quite a waste of effort.

The playground is already crowded with people now, and thousands of naval cadets are crowded here, waiting for the moment when Zhang Yi comes.

Yan Fu boarded the temporary platform and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, today is the day when our Naval University is completed, and the president of our Republic of China, General Zhang Jianzhi, has personally come here to inspect, and now, we invite General Zhang Jianzhi to give us a speech!" ”

In an instant, on the playground, there was a coral tsunami of applause, here, whether it is the newly recruited students from local universities, or the elites selected from various units, they are all fanatical admirers of Zhang Yi, and the fanaticism of this famous iron-blooded general has already been carved into the bones, and now he is about to see the general will personally deliver a speech for the university, and he is naturally full of excitement.

Zhang Yi slowly walked onto the stage, looked at the students below, shook his hand gently, and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

Zhang Yi opened his mouth and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, today is a very special day, our Republic of China has finally given birth to a naval university that can be compared with the Western powers!" I can pack tickets, even in the British Empire, there are few naval universities with cash like our Mukden Naval University, which is the pride of our Chinese! ”

Zhang Yi paused slightly, and then said: "Ladies and gentlemen, some of you here have followed me through dozens of battles, and some of you have just stepped out of the university campus and entered the Naval University, although the experience is different, but one thing is the same, that is, we are all familiar with China's humiliating history since the Opium War!" In the two Opium Wars, we lost our power and humiliated the country, the Sino-French War failed, we lost Vietnam, and in the Sino-Japanese War, we just beat Japan away, but it was far from victory, Korea was lost, and Taiwan almost fell into the hands of the Japanese, why? Why, the great powers have repeatedly provoked us, repeatedly entered our China, and launched wars? Because we are lagging behind, because we do not have our own powerful navy! The artillery and iron ships of foreigners can run rampant along our coast unimpeded, and they can enter the Yangtze River and the Pearl River at will! We don't have a strong navy, and if we fall behind, we will be beaten! We once built the world's most powerful naval division, but no matter how good the warships were, they could not block the sneak attack of the Japanese army, which shows that it is not enough to have powerful warships, we lack talents, we lack strong enough and excellent enough naval talents! Only with qualified personnel can we develop naval equipment with sufficient cash, and only with qualified personnel can we develop China's naval strategy! Since last year's Sino-Japanese-Russian war, we have won this war, but we can only watch Japan still roam on its own island country, and we can only watch the Pacific Fleet of Tsarist Russia cruising in the Pacific Ocean. But from now on, this will no longer be our excuse, because we have the Naval University, and we will have the most advanced and powerful fleet in the world in the future, and the future destiny of the Chinese Navy is in your hands. Tell me, do you have the confidence to build an invincible armada! ”

"Yes! Yes! Yes! The roars of the students rose wave after wave, pushing the atmosphere to the extreme. Zhang Yi looked at these hot-blooded athletes and shouted: "Okay, then I'll wait for your invincible armada to come out!" You will be recorded in the annals of China's rejuvenation as the heroes of the first batch of Chinese Navy, and I am waiting for you! ”
