Chapter 528: Naval Construction Plan
Zhang Yi was really shocked by Liu Buyun's naval strategic thinking and the planning in it, and after reading the booklet, it took a long time before he reflected it. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]
Zhang Yi realized his gaffe, coughed, and said: "Zixiang, Zixiang, you have been in the Beiyang Naval Division for more than ten years, and you have barely done much, you are really dragged down by the imperial court, if you are in Germany, Zixiang, with your current ability, I am afraid that it is possible to become the deputy chief or chief of the navy, alas, Zixiang, I really admire your talent." ”
Liu Buyun looked at Zhang Yi praising him like this, he didn't feel a little blushing, and said shyly: "General Jianzhi, the general of the defeated army, how brave is his words, no matter how talented I am, I will not still be defeated in the hands of the Japanese Combined Fleet, this is not a powerful fleet in the West, just a small Japan, I have already defeated me, shame." ”
Zhang Yi said disdainfully: "Little Japan? Zixiang, I absolutely believe that in the First Sino-Japanese War, if there was no constraint from the imperial court, with your military literacy, even if the fleet of the Beiyang Naval Division was slightly inferior, it would definitely be able to win the battle, instead of stumbling like that, Zixiang, now that we are a family, I will give you all the power to build a navy, as long as you want to do it, I fully support you, I only hope that you can build a powerful fleet for us in the shortest possible time, at least able to dominate Asia, come on, tell me what you think. ”
Liu Buyun replied: "General Jianzhi, you are welcome, when it comes to the specific tactics and technology of the navy, you may not be as good as me, but when it comes to the overall situation and the general policy, there is no one in the whole of China who can be better than you!" I'd better hear about your grand plans first. ”
Zhang Yi smiled indifferently, knowing that Liu Buyun had just joined his command, he still had some restraints, and he couldn't let go, and Zhang Yi didn't embarrass him.
Zhang Yi pondered for a moment and said: "Zixiang, now there are several most important tasks for our navy, first, we must seize the time to prepare for the establishment of the Naval University and train the most talents for the navy. Second, the construction of Taiwan's Keelung military port, now we do not have any bases in the Guannai, but the three naval divisions of the Manchu Qing Dynasty have now existed in name only, we must take over and use the fleet to defend the sea frontier, since we do not have a base, then build a new Port Arthur in Taiwan, just in Taiwan can choke the Indian Ocean to East Asia, this is the key to our future naval strategy! Third, to realize your submarine strategy, the British will definitely not sit idly by for our development, and they will not allow China to rise, which is not in their global interests, not to mention that we are still allies with Germany, so our navy cannot expect the British to help us too much, from now on, immediately start the research and development of submarines, a powerful submarine force, absolutely able to deter the fleets of various countries on the ocean! Fourth, while we are not at a standoff with the British, we will do our best to purchase the warship technology of the British, recruit their engineers, and build up our own naval engineering team! ”
Liu Buyun said: "General, let's talk one by one, first of all, the establishment of the Naval University, now our school building has been almost built, the next is to purchase equipment, build simulation training facilities, I think within half a year, our university can be completed, and we hire instructors, enrollment can be carried out together with the construction of the school, which can save us a lot of time, although we think it is definitely worth wasting some money!" ”
Zhang Yi nodded and replied: "What you said makes sense, we can still spend such a small amount of money, and as for the recruitment of instructors, we can only entrust you to do it." "[3251591 King of Special Forces Crossing the First Sino-Japanese War, King of Special Forces Crossing the First Sino-Japanese War] 325 first launched the King of Special Forces of the First Sino-Japanese War 528
Liu Buyun shook his head and said: "General, if it is a march to fight and gallop on the sea, I will not be left behind, but teaching and educating people is not what I am good at." ”
Zhang Yi smiled: "Oh, that's good, how about you recommend a few people to me?" ”
Liu Buyun replied: "If there is anyone who is most qualified to form and manage an officer academy in today's China, it is Tianjin Yan Fu!" ”
Zhang Yi smiled and asked, "Yan Fu?" ”
Liu Buyun replied: "Yes, Jianzhi, I want to run a good naval university, look around the Qing Dynasty, Yan Fu does not think about the second person, he was originally the general office of the Beiyang Naval Academy, because of the disagreement with Lord Li Hongzhang, he participated in the reform of the law, so it has been difficult to be used by the imperial court, in fact, this person is rich in learning, for mathematics, geometry, physics, geology, surveying and mapping and other disciplines have been involved, quite proficient, especially he once studied in the United Kingdom, studied at the University of Portsmouth, and then entered the Greenwich Naval Academy for further study, He is a real all-rounder, only he can run the Naval University well, and he has a lot of contacts in the British naval system, and he can borrow his connections to recruit naval talents and instructors for us. ”
Although Zhang Yi knew Yan Fu in his previous life, he didn't expect that Yan Fu would have such rich experience, when Shi Dakai told him before, he didn't care too much, and now when he heard Liu Buyun say this, he really paid attention to it.
Zhang Yi asked: "Zixiang, you and Yan Fu served in the same navy, are you familiar with him?" ”
Liu Buyun replied: "General, Yan Fu and I are fellow villagers, and at the same time we are of the same age, and we are sent to study in the UK together, so that the two of us have a good relationship, but in the past two years, due to our busy schedules, there are fewer letters. ”
Zhang Yi then asked, "Then where is he now?" Is it in the country? ”
Liu Buyun said with a smile: "The Wuxu change of the law made the imperial court angry, Yan Fu, as a member of the Restoration Party, is also among the Yan Na, two months ago, he once gave me a letter, saying that he is living in Shanghai. ”
Zhang Yi said firmly: "Zixiang, I will give you the first order, no matter what method you use, you must invite Yan Fu to Fengtian for me!" We must not let him be buried here, there is no place for heroes! ”
Liu Buyun nodded and said, "General, I will do my best, but although Yan Fu is full of wealth, he is no different from a scholar, and he is arrogant and arrogant, but it is not something that ordinary people can invite." Zhang Yi replied: "Then I don't care, what do you need, even if you speak, I will do my best to help, I just want one thing, that is, to invite Yan Fu to come to Fengtian and serve as the president of the Naval University!" Liu Buyun nodded and agreed, and said: "I won the general's matter, now, let's talk about the second thing, the construction of the Keelung Military Port, we need a competent person to preside over this matter, although the old man Shi has outstanding prestige and ability, but he is only afraid that he is a layman for the construction of the naval military port!" ”
