The Chinese Empire attaches great importance to the navy beyond imagination, the navy is the weakest of the three major arms of the Chinese Empire, the army, the navy and the air force, Yan Xueyi will allocate a large amount of money every year to develop the navy, and in the five years of Xinghua, he has used more than ten new warships and submarines to enter the service of the navy's two major fleets to further enhance the strength of the navy, but this is not enough, Yan Xueyi will increase investment in the navy.

On the Royal No. 1 airship, Yan Xueyi and the three ministers discussed the future military development of the empire, as well as the military situation of various countries in the world.

It's just that as the airship got closer and closer to the Ryukyus, Yan Xueyi felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart, which made Yan Xueyi feel very puzzled and didn't know what was going on.

Over the years, Yan Xueyi's own strength has been improving "rapidly", especially after becoming the emperor, the improvement speed is faster than when he became the king of Han, and this improvement speed also makes Yan Xueyi feel inexplicable, but it is not harmful to himself, and Yan Xueyi does not care.

The improvement of Yan Xueyi's strength is essentially an increase in spiritual power, and now Yan Xueyi's strength can even use spiritual power to hold himself up a distance out of thin air, and he can hold on for a few minutes.

But with the improvement of strength, sometimes Yan Xueyi will have a mysterious feeling, just like an immortal flying to the sky, pinching his fingers, he can know what is about to happen, although Yan Xueyi can't know what is about to happen, but with this feeling, Yan Xueyi can roughly feel a trace of the future: safe and sound, dangerous, and so on.

At this time, this "trace of uneasiness" is very small, so small that Yan Xueyi can't even detect it, that is to say, there will be some small dangers in the future, but it will have little impact on Yan Xueyi.

"Could it be that there is something wrong with the airship?" Yan Xueyi guessed, but soon Yan Xueyi vetoed it himself, the Royal One airship can be said to be the safest airship in the world, and other airships may have problems, but the Royal One will definitely not.

So what could it be? Yan Xueyi didn't know, countless thoughts came to his mind, including that his group would have an accident when inspecting the Pacific Fleet, and then Yan Xueyi threw away the chaotic thoughts in his mind, chatted with the three courtiers for a while, and returned to the bedroom to rest.

This time, the airship still set off in the evening, and arrived in Ryukyu the next morning, and after seeing that Yan Xueyi had gone to rest, the three ministers also went to rest after chatting for a while.

Nothing was said all night.

On the morning of the 18th, a formation of four airships appeared over the Ryukyus and flew in the direction of the military port.

In order to meet Yan Xueyi's inspection, the Pacific Fleet hurriedly made preparations, and the battleships were washed with water over and over again, eager to wipe the battleships shiny, and finally, all the warships of the Pacific Fleet lined up in the military port.

The Navy also knew that Yan Xueyi didn't like extravagance and waste, so the Pacific Fleet prepared a simple welcome ceremony on the dock, and all the high-ranking officials of the Pacific Fleet came to the dock to welcome Yan Xueyi's arrival.

The airship landed on the dock, and Yan Xueyi walked out of the airship with the three ministers.

Yan Xueyi is 31 years old this year, and among the first group of people to follow Yan Xueyi, some of them are already old, with gorgeous hair on their heads, and Yan Xueyi, who has entered middle age, still looks like when he was young, as if time can't leave any traces on Yan Xueyi's face, Yan Xueyi will not deliberately pretend to be old, but in order to appear mature, Yan Xueyi has two mustaches for himself, so that it looks much better.

"Wan Sheng!" On the dock, Liu Buyun led a group of high-ranking officials of the Pacific Fleet to give a military salute to Yan Xueyi.

"Wan Sheng!" Yan Xueyi returned a military salute, and the three ministers also returned a military salute.

"Serve Your Majesty, never give up!" Liu Buyun and the others shouted loudly, and then lowered their arms.

Yan Xueyi didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

In Yan Xueyi's eyes, the high-ranking members of the Pacific Fleet on the dock stood up straight in front of him, although they stood more concentrated, but Yan Xueyi could see that there were two distinct factions, one was the old-style soldiers, mainly Lin Taizeng, the captain of the Zhenyuan, Li Dingxin, the captain of the Dingyuan, and others, all of whom were returned to the Chinese Empire by the Manchu Dynasty; The other faction is a new type of military, mainly Yan Ying, deputy commander of the Pacific Fleet, Jia Zhenkun, a cruiser of Huili, and others.

And the commander of the Pacific Fleet, Liu Buyun, stands in the middle of the two factions, although Liu Buyun is also an old-style soldier, but Liu Buyun has been named a second-class uncle by Yan Xueyi, is the nobleman of the empire, the Liu family and the empire rise and fall together, Liu Buchan's concept in his heart slowly changed, hoping to do his best to make the two factions merge, unfortunately, Liu Buchan has not succeeded.

Whether it is in the Pacific Fleet or the South China Sea Fleet, the old-style soldiers and the new-style soldiers are two distinct factions, and the new-style soldiers will not have much disgust with the old-style soldiers, but the old-style soldiers hate the new-style soldiers very much, thinking that the new-style soldiers are the descendants of the empire, and sooner or later they will snatch their places, so the old-style soldiers are very exclusive to the new-style soldiers.

In the two fleets, it is rare for a warship to have both old and new soldiers, and the two factions are generally separated, with the old military in charge of the original warships and the new military in service by the new soldiers.

However, this disposal plan also made many old-style soldiers dissatisfied, because they also wanted to replace the new warship, but the old warship did not want to give up, which was simply a manifestation of insatiable greed.

Although there are not many disputes between the old-style soldiers and the new-style soldiers on the surface, secretly, the old-style soldiers frequently make small moves against the new-style soldiers, and sometimes even Liu Buyun can't stand it, and orders the old-style soldiers to settle down a little.

Yan Xueyi also doesn't like these old-style soldiers, many of them have come back from studying abroad, and they also have a lot of bad habits, but the navy of the Chinese Empire is relatively weak, and they have to be used, once the naval system of the Chinese Empire is completely perfected, these old-style soldiers will disappear from the empire's naval sequence in batches, Yan Xueyi does not need such a group of "dishonest" old-style soldiers.

However, when Yan Xueyi swept to the top of the old-style military faction, Yan Xueyi found a problem, several people were more emotional, this excitement was not the feeling of excitement when a person saw the emperor, but a kind of excitement similar to nervousness.

Yan Xueyi didn't care about this, and officially began to inspect the Pacific Fleet, and the captains of the ships of the Pacific Fleet returned to their warships, and Yan Xueyi and the four of them, accompanied by Liu Buyun and Yan Ying, walked towards the Dingyuan ironclad ship.

While walking, Liu Buyun told Yan Xueyi about the changes in the Pacific Fleet in the past year.
