The "Weiyuan" class cruiser is the first class of iron-ribbed wood-hulled cruisers built by the shipyard, with a standard displacement of 1,700 tons, and is a pure warship that completely abandons the idea of "dual-use of arms and business", with a length of 71 meters, a width of 10 meters, a draft of 5 meters, and a power of 250 horsepower steam engine, 1,700 horsepower, equipped with 2 190 mm mast main guns, 7 140 mm guns, of which the bow is 1 140 mm gun and a 190 mm gun, a total of 6 140 mm guns on both sides, At the stern of the ship, there was a 190 mm main gun of the changing mast type, and the "Weiyuan" was equipped with six powerful melee weapons - "Lin's machine guns", which was the most powerful warship built by the shipmaster at that time.

Judging from the appearance, the "Weiyuan" ship is different from the flying scissor head used by the previous shipmaster warships, which is a typical crashing head, and it is the French Navy's signature "big nose" crashing horn head at that time, and the 6-meter-long big nose collision angle looks domineering. The speed of the "Weiyuan" is 14 knots, and it is also second to none in the shipyard. As soon as the "Weiyuan" ship, which adopted a brand-new technology and was equipped with a brand-new steam engine, came out, it aroused the envy of the governors in many places, and they demanded that it be transferred. There are six follow-up ships of the "Weiyuan" class, namely "Chaowu", "Chengqing", "Henghai", "Kangji", "Fujing", and "Jianjing", of which the "Fujing" and "Jianjing", which were finally completed, were modified at the request of Lin Yizhe to resist the ironclad ships of the Japanese Navy, further strengthened their firepower and armor protection, and were upgraded to armored cruisers. In the year of Jiaxu (1874), Japan invaded Taiwan, and all seven ships of the "Weiyuan" class participated in the "Battle of Langqiao" and the "Battle of the East China Sea", and achieved brilliant results.
