The sparkling surface of the sea is not a flying seagull happily foraging for food.

Woowoowoooo......oo Three armored cruisers heading north, waving the Yellow Dragon Banner and billowing smoke, were driving side by side, and the foraging seagulls seemed to have become accustomed to the chirping of this steel monster, but they stopped a little, and plunged into the sea again, bringing small fish in their mouths.

These three warships were the rescue fleet of the Beiyang Naval Division that had returned to Lushun from Fuzhou.

The crisis of the Fuzhou Shipping Bureau has been solved. The imperial court did not mobilize a large army to advance, and everything seemed normal, so that Liu Jun handed over the defense of Fuzhou to Li Rong's Fifth Corps, and then boarded the warship Qiaoli and returned to Lushun.

On the bridge of the Hashidate, Liu Jun, who was wearing a military cap, looked at the endless sea, closed his eyes, and began to feel the feeling brought by the roar of the sea.

"By the way, yesterday you said that Pei Yinsen would go all out to build a warship for the Fujian Navy Division after the completion of the Son of Heaven plan, what do you want to do?" I don't know when, Zheng Yiqian came to Liu Jun's side and hugged Liu Jun from behind.

The Tianzi plan is actually two dreadnought battleships built by Dalian Shipyard and Fuzhou Mawei Shipyard for the Beiyang Naval Division. The main guns and hulls of these two battleships are made in China, but this engine is purchased in Germany, after all, there is no such technology in China now.

Do?; Liu Jun smiled slightly. He was going to build a powerful navy.

Beiyang Naval Division, Fujian Naval Division, Guangdong Naval Division, these three naval divisions, can be regarded as an important force in the country's coastal defense, before the Battle of Fuzhou, they mastered the Guangdong Naval Division and the most powerful Beiyang Naval Division, but only the Fujian Naval Division has been under the control of the imperial court.

Now, the three fleets, the Fujian Naval Division and the Beiyang Naval Division, have been directly owned by themselves, but the Guangdong Naval Division is now due to special reasons, so it is not directly assigned to their own dispatch, but smart people can see that over the years, the Beiyang Naval Division has made every effort to build the Beiyang at the same time, but also constantly transporting blood for the Guangdong Naval Division, Jiyuan, Pingyuan, Guangbing and the three torpedo cruisers manufactured by the Dalian Shipyard have been delivered to the Guangdong Naval Division.

In the future, the main task of the Guangdong Navy Division will be to confront the French fleet and the British Far East Fleet, while the main task of the Beiyang Fleet will be to deal with the Pacific Fleet of Japan and Tsarist Russia.

No matter which fleet it is, the enemy it will face in the future should not be underestimated, and if it wants to be defeated, it must have a strong navy.

Originally, Liu Jun had a plan in his heart to build the Guangdong Naval Division into two battleships, five armored cruisers, seven torpedo cruisers and more than a dozen torpedo boats, while the Beiyang Naval Division consisted of three to five battleships respectively, and the number of other Guangdong naval divisions was no different. Then there is one more Fujian sailor.

But it's okay, at least the supporting fleet is there.

"Who are you going to be the commander of the Fujian Naval Division?" Zheng Yiqian understood everything and asked lightly.

Who is in charge, Liu Jun glanced at Li He, who was standing not far away. I looked down and thought for a moment: "Then, that's a good character." ”

Li He on the side was happy in his heart, he had just heard the naval planning map in Liu Jun's heart, three to five battleships, five armored cruisers, and more than a dozen torpedo cruisers. In the past, he and the officers and men of the Beiyang Naval Division would not have dared to think of this, even now, they would not dare to, but now, not only dare to think about it, but it will soon be realized.

The best character. Li He looked at Liu Jun and pointed at himself, knowing that Liu Jun had made him the commander of the Fujian Navy Division.

"Dashuai, he is still the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division, this Fujian Naval Division, please transfer another person to serve as the commander."

What do you mean, listening to this tone, Li He is about to refuse, Liu Jun tilted his head, looked at Li He standing in front of him, and saw that his expression was not fake, although he had some doubts in his heart, and was about to ask, he found that Zheng Yiqian was pulling himself, and immediately knew that Zheng Yiqian definitely had something to say, so he nodded and motioned for himself to consider this matter.

The three warships sailing on the surface of the sea suddenly sounded their whistles again, and the fleet entered the Yellow Sea from time to time.

After a short stay in Weihai, Liu Jun embarked on the journey again, and finally returned to Lushun on the night of the third day under the carrying of the Hashili.

Because it was night, Liu Jun didn't let anyone come to greet him, and after greeting Li He, Liu Jun returned to his own home in the Lushun Headquarters alone under the protection of Zheng Yiqian and his personal bodyguard Huo Yuanjia.

As soon as they got home, their families and fell asleep, the two of them returned to the room like thieves, washed up briefly, and then got into the bed.

"Hey, why did you pull me in the first place?" Liu Jun still couldn't understand why Zheng Yiqian was pulling himself at that time.

With a slight smile, Zheng Yiqian slapped Liu Jun, and then said lightly: "You didn't see that Li He was planning for himself." ”

What do you mean, Li He can't rebel, if you don't believe it, you won't believe it if you kill yourself.

Li He was dug from the Beiyang Naval Division at the beginning, although his command ability was not very strong at that time, but Li He worked hard, and often humbly wanted to learn from the naval personnel on the warship, so over the years, his ability has been a top-notch person. How could the people he had cultivated by himself rebel, Liu Jun really couldn't believe it.

Knowing that Liu Jun was going to misunderstand what he meant, Zheng Yiqian pursed her lips and began to explain patiently.

Li He is in charge of the Beiyang Naval Division, and he is already a very popular minister, but he is in charge of the Fujian Naval Division, that is, the military power is in his hands, at this time, if he agrees, it is worth digging his own grave for Ji, although Zheng Yiqian knows that Liu Jun is not that kind of person, but after all, Li He will not think like this.

Understood, Liu Jun nodded slightly, he knew that Zheng Yiqian wanted to say that Li He was afraid that he would have too much military power, and he would make great contributions, and he did this just to protect Mingze.

Since this is the case, Liu Jun didn't say anything, but began to choose who would be the commander of the Fujian Navy Division from the ships of the Beiyang Naval Division in his heart, and in the end, Liu Jun locked his eyes on one person. That is, the Zhenyuan pipe belt Yang Yonglin.

Yang Yonglin, who used to be the first mate of the Beiyang Navy Zhenyuan, after the Weihai breakout, Liu Buchan died in battle. When he returned to the Beiyang Naval Division reorganized in Lushun, Liu Jun ordered Yang Yonglin to take over the Zhenyuan pipe belt, and Lin Tai once took over the Dingyuan pipe belt.

Originally, Liu Jun thought that Lin Tai had been the material, but later, he said from some sailors that the Yellow Sea naval battle was five hours at that time, and Lin Tai was panicked in the command tower, from the beginning of the battle to the end, there was no command, but Yang Yonglin was taking over the command, originally he didn't believe it, so Zhong Lin ordered a secret investigation, but the result made Liu Jun very disappointed, all this is true. Lin Taizeng, who graduated from the Royal Naval College in the United Kingdom, actually didn't know at all.

For this reason, Liu Jun directly ordered soon after, so that the Dingyuan pipe took Lin Taizeng to Ruojing, and Lin Guoxiang was transferred to the general manager of Dingyuan.

When the decision was made, Liu Jun would do it immediately, and the next morning, Liu Jun ******** and asked Yang Yonglin to step down from the Zhenyuan pipe, but asked him to take the Flying Tiger torpedo cruiser and three torpedo boats to the Fujian Navy Division as the commander of the naval division, and his military rank was also promoted from major general to lieutenant general.

The Fujian sailors are now all small wooden boats. Asking Yang Yonglin to take the Flying Tiger to Fujian is actually to let Yang Yonglin save face, after all, let the flagship of a naval commander be all wood, so what is the future mission of the Fujian fleet.

Originally, Liu Jun was going to let Yang Yonglin drive the Zhenyuan directly, but thinking about the current Japan and not being restricted by the "Tianjin Treaty", he could only endure it, after all, the main enemy in the future is in the north, not in the south.

In the future, the combined fleet will be its number one enemy.

He knew that sooner or later, Japan would have to think of a real decisive battle with itself.
