"Heng Shuai!"

"Heng Shuai!"

One voice after another rang out. Wang Hengyue walked over with a smile: "How about it, now that you're satisfied, Lao Tzu helped you get the navy!" ”

"I'm satisfied!" Zhang Xiaoyue and Wu Qianlong said loudly together.

One of the biggest benefits of Guangdong falling into the hands is that it is finally able to form its own navy!

The original Beiyang First Fleet, later known as the "Protector Fleet", the naval force almost completely fell into the hands of Wang Hengyue, connected with the "Hairong" and "Haichou" cruisers that had been bought before, the First Fleet had 13 ships, 18,000 tons, accounting for half of the total tonnage of the Republic of China Navy!

Moreover, the ships of the Guangdong Navy before were also in the hands of Wang Hengyue!

Although Wang Hengyue's naval strength is still weak and pitiful compared to the great powers, this has made great progress compared to between!

Cheng Biguang, who came with him, said with a smile: "Zhang Xiaoyue was also my subordinate before, and now it is considered an old friend to get together, okay, okay!" ”

"Establishment of the Office of the General Headquarters of the Navy of the National Revolutionary Army." Wang Hengyue straightened his face: "Cheng Biguang is still the commander-in-chief of the navy, Zhang Xiaoyue, the commander-in-chief of the navy; The establishment of the Jiangfang Command, Wu Qianlong, as the commander-in-chief of the Jiangfang Command! ”

"Yes! Loyalty to Hengshuai, loyalty to the country! ”

Navy, Navy! Great Navy!

In Wang Hengyue's heart, there has always been a dream of a big navy!

Maybe I will not be able to complete the dream of a big navy in this life, and I will not be able to see China become a maritime hegemon in this life, but in any case, as long as I am still sitting in this position, as long as I am still alive, I have to sit slowly step by step.

If you can't realize this dream in this life, leave it to the next generation to complete, and one day, this dream of your own will be realized in future generations!

Zhang Xiaoyue and Wu Qianlong were equally excited and excited.

They still firmly remember the scene when the Sichuan "Water Army" was established.

A fishing boat with a small cannon on it, this is the "gunboat" prepared for them by Heng Shuai! But the dream of the navy began on this gunboat!

The name of that "gunboat" is "Qiangsheng"!

Until now, they still can't forget what Heng Shuai said to them that day:

Or maybe that's a symbol, the beginning of our navy. In the future, when we really have a navy and become stronger, I will make a museum for this 'gunboat' to preserve, so that everyone can know that this is how our navy started."

Heng Shuai did not break his promise, Heng Shuai finally gave them a real fleet!

"Fleet, I'll give it to you, and the rest will depend on you. The construction of the navy is not an overnight thing, but I can do as much as I can! Wang Hengyue said with a serious expression: "I don't ask you to be able to make the navy so strong immediately, I just have one, if you really have to fight with foreign fleets in the future, even if you lose, you will lose the dignity of the Chinese navy!" Army, to die on the ground; Air Force, to die in the air; Navy, die above the sea! ”

"Yes, die, and die on the sea!"

Cheng Biguang suddenly said: "Generalissimo, there is someone you have to invite him back." ”

"Oh, who has to ask me personally?" Wang Hengyue said curiously.

Cheng Biguang smiled and said: "This person is very young, only twenty-five years old this year, when I led the First Fleet to support the Dharma Protector, this person also came with me. Although I am young, I expect that I will be a generation of outstanding admirals in the future! ”

Selling Guan Zi paused like a child: "This person is a master of words, a native of Wenchang, Guangdong, this person went to Singapore with his father at the age of three, returned to China at the age of eight, graduated from Guangdong Naval Academy, surnamed Chen Mingce,!" ”

Wang Hengyue gasped, and he couldn't wait to slap himself hard now!

How did you forget about this genius admiral? If it weren't for Cheng Biguang's reminder, if he lost this person, he would really regret it for the rest of his life!

In fact, it can't be blamed entirely on Wang Hengyue for not thinking of this person.

In the decline of the Chinese navy in modern times, the generals of the Republic of China are far less familiar than the army generals, in fact, there are many legends among them. Chen Ce is one of them. He was a rare brave admiral in the history of the Guangdong Navy. Chen Ce had a peculiar experience, and successively participated in the Xinhai Revolution, the War to Protect the Country, the War to Protect the Law, the War against Chen, Gui, Guangdong, the Anti-Japanese War, and the Pacific War; He has been a naval commander, a warlord, a knight, a mayor, a diplomatic corps, an Allied fleet, a school, a railroad, and a life full of legends!

In that war of resistance that China will never forget, Chen Ce made miraculous achievements, and in recognition of Chen Ce's contributions, the Emperor awarded him the "Imperial Knight Commander Medal"!

Sun Yat-sen organized the Dharma Protection Movement in Guangdong, and the First Fleet led by Cheng Biguang, the chief of the Navy, was electrified to support it, and Chen Ce also joined the Dharma Protector Fleet to participate in this action. Speaking of which, there was an interesting episode in the "Flying Eagle" fleet, where Chen Ce was located, was ordered to be the lead ship, and the captain of the ship learned that the people of Guangdong had assembled at the Guangzhou wharf and were eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the Protector Fleet.

Chen Ce's prestige increased because of the many cadets of the Guangdong Naval Academy in the Protector Fleet, and he lobbied Chen Jiongming on behalf of the Maritime Academy Comrades Association, urging Chen to come to Guangdong from Zhangzhou to support Sun Yat-sen. Chen Ce also got Sun Yat-sen's respect because of this. At that time, Sun Yat-sen's naval forces included two, and the large ships mainly came from the original First Fleet, which supported the protection of the law, including the cruiser "Haiqi", the largest warship in China at that time, and the cruiser "Zhaohe", which was the first to use the turbine main engine; There is also a part of the original Qing Dynasty Guangdong Navy Division, the Guangdong Navy Division had developed rapidly, but in the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, the "Guangjia", "Guang B", "Guang C" three cruisers reinforced by the north were all lost, since then there is a slump, at this time there are only a few small ships, Sun Yat-sen appointed Chen Ce as the commander of the Changzhou Fortress, responsible for the purge of the original Guangdong Navy Division.

At that time, the Chinese Navy had a strange tradition, most of the senior officers in the main fleet were Fujianese, it is said that this tradition originated from the Beiyang Naval Division, and most of its main officers were from the Fuzhou Shipbuilding School, except for Ding Ruchang and Deng Shichang, almost all of them were Fujianese, and the official languages in the navy were English and Hokkien.

Hokkien is the only dialect in Chinese with six sounds, and people from other provinces can imagine how awkward it is if they want to learn the navy. As a result, the "Fujian" navy, as China's central navy, has existed for decades. Such a strong regional surname of the army obviously has a fairly strong reading surname.

The Protector Fleet is no exception. As a result, when the Dharma Protector Movement was repeated, the Dharma Protector Fleet showed signs of rejoining the Beiyang under the control of Fujian officers. Sun Yat-sen instructed a meeting of non-Fujian officers of the naval fleet stationed in Shenghe and commanders of various batteries and aircraft fleets in Shenghe and Huangpu, and it was decided that Chen Ce would lead the Jiangfang fleet to seize the "Haiqi", "Haichen", "Zhaohe" and other large ships stationed in Huangpu.

At that time, Chen Ce only had shallow gunboats such as "Dongjiang" and "Beijiang" in his hands, with a displacement of only two or three hundred tons, and the largest "Haijingqing" was 600 tons, but it was a "mosquito boat" that Li Hongzhang bought before he ran the Beiyang Naval Division, and it was so old that it could not be described in words, and fighting with "Haiqi" was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. How to fight this battle? Chen Ce is worthy of being a fierce general, and the method he adopted was naval warfare and land fighting, imitating the tricks of the Huitian death squad organized by the Navy's Huitian death squad in the Battle of Hakodate, organizing the Marine Corps, and jumping to seize the ship!

In the Battle of Hakodate, the Huitian death squad suffered a miserable defeat because of inaccurate intelligence, but Chen Ce succeeded!

Chen Ce led his subordinates to launch a general attack on all ships at the same time, and the officers and men of the Protector Fleet were caught off guard, and by 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the battle ended smoothly, and all ships surrendered to Chen Ce one after another, and Lin Yunke, the navigator of the "Yongfeng" ship, was killed because of resistance. Sun Yat-sen thus changed the captains of the ships, and Feng Zhaoxian, the captain of the "Yongfeng" ship, took over the warships at this time. Chen Ce was promoted to rear admiral and commander of the river defense fleet because of his good management of the army and his courage and courage to fight, and since then he has become the number one person in the Guangdong Navy.

Gotta get this guy anyway!

It's a pity that this person is a follower of Sun Yat-sen, and it is a very firm kind, after Sun Yat-sen was squeezed out by Wang Hengyue, a large number of generals of the Sun Yat-sen department of the army were invited to go out to the ocean for "investigation", only the navy because of Wang Hengyue's big naval dream, the officers were completely retained.

Fortunately, fortunately, Wang Hengyue is very happy. This person should still be in Guangdong. Otherwise, I would have to slap a few mouths and scold myself for the rest of my life.

I've got to figure out a way to get this guy here.

"Where is this Chen Ce now?" Wang Hengyue hurriedly asked.

Cheng Biguang laughed: "Don't worry, I didn't leave." Originally, after Sun Wen left, he also wanted to go with Sun Wen, but I persuaded him to stay. I'm sulking at home now, Generalissimo, and you're going to get this man out and hurry up. ”

"How can this be reasonable, how can it really be reasonable" Wang Hengyue said to Zhang Xiaoyue and Wu Qianlong very scoundrelly: "Such a talent, as a commander, why don't you stay in the fleet, I almost lost a talent!" ”

Zhang Xiaoyue and Wu Qianlong looked at each other, crying and laughing, what does this have to do with themselves? The two of them came from Sichuan, and they didn't know a few, where did they know Chen Ce?

Come on, who made him the generalissimo?

Wang Hengyue carefully sorted out his military uniform and couldn't wait to say:

"Let's go, I'll go visit Chen Ce!"
