This maid with the name of Tingmei thought of the rumors among the servants of the Lin Mansion that the old man Lin Yizhe would be able to "dementor the soul", and she couldn't help but feel chills in her heart. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When I first came to the Lin Mansion, I privately heard other servants talk about the rumors about the old man's trial of prisoners, and the servants often said that if the master used the ability of soul dementoring, any beautiful woman could get it, but the old man disdained to do that.

After she heard about it, she didn't believe it in her heart, but today, after seeing Lin Yizhe, she did believe it a little.

Since they came to the Lin Mansion, they could always feel the invisible majesty of Chen Wan, and they had an instinctive awe of this lady.

Chen Wan has always given the impression of these people as dignified and virtuous, and she seems to be a little cold, but she never expected that after seeing this young man, Chen Wan would show a different appearance like a volcanic eruption.

The contrast was unimaginable.

And Madame's such a change, except for the terrifying "soul magic", it seems that there is no better explanation.

Since Chen Wan has always been very good to them, now she has been hesitant in her heart, whether to tell Chen Wan about the things that Mrs. Liu handed over to them!

Because one day, if the master uses "spiritualism" to see through, a few of them may die without a place to be buried!

Just when listening to Mei's heart, the three sisters who came with her also tossed and turned in their own beds, thinking the same thing.

Because of the lingering passion after a long absence, Lin Yizhe felt extremely relaxed, and he slept very sweetly with this sleep. The next day he woke up, he went to visit Guo Songtao and others early, and helped Guo Songtao arrange all the preparations for the mission, and soon, after booking to take the British passenger ship "Cardania", Lin Yizhe sent Guo Songtao and others on the ship, and after all the arrangements were made, Lin Yizhe set up a banquet for Guo Songtao to practice. In the afternoon, the "Cardania" set sail and sailed out of the sea.

After seeing off Guo Songtao, Lin Yizhe first went to the Harbour Master's Office to learn about the progress of the Harbour Master's Bureau in the recent period. Xia Xianlun and Wu Zhongxiang were promoted to greet him, and the two first congratulated Lin Yizhe on his promotion to his new position, and then explained the current situation of the shipyard to Lin Yizhe.

After the recovery of the Ryukyus, Hayashi Yoshizhe went to the imperial court, explained in detail the situation of the recovery of the Ryukyus and the important strategic significance of the port of Naha in the Ryukyus, and suggested that the Ryukyus be garrisoned in the Ryukyus, and that the Ryukyus be China's commercial port to increase China's economic income. One or two permanent warships were stationed in the Ryukyus, thinking that they would respond." The imperial court agreed to Li Hongzhang's request, and believed that "at present, there are too few available military ships, and all Haikou in the North and South Oceans need to be stationed, so it is ordered that the ship administration quickly rebuild two armored patrol clippers to replace the reincarnation defense of the troops in Liu." In order to ensure the construction and development of the navy, the imperial court not only restored the monthly operating expenses of 50,000 taels of silver for the shipmaster, but also ordered the construction of warships to be continued, "in case of emergency", and said that "the household department has money to be allocated." With the financial support of the imperial court, the shipmaster began to build new ships. From the very beginning of their construction, the two newly built warships defined their mission -- to garrison overseas. Lin Yizhe, who defeated Japan and was still full of vigilance against Japan's wolf ambitions, gave the two warships two powerful names when he was in Beijing: "Yuan Kai" and "Deng Yingzhou".

"Yuan Kai" and "Deng Yingzhou" are the improved models of the "Weiyuan" class, in addition to the addition of 75 mm armor belt, the artillery has also undergone great changes, the original two powerful 190 mm guns have been removed, all changed to 8 140 mm breech guns, 1 at the head and 1 at the tail, 3 on each side, in addition, the number of machine guns has also been increased, the ship is equipped with a total of 5 40 mm Ha Qi Kaisi machine guns and single-barreled 40 mm machine guns 8 each, 6 Lin's machine guns.

From the day when the first keel of "Yuan Kai" and "Deng Yingzhou" was laid on the slipway, it meant the birth of China's first-class foreign warship in the future.

Lin Yizhe then went to the shipyard with Xia Xianlun and Wu Zhongxiang to inspect the construction of "Yuankai" and "Dengyingzhou", and looked at the two warships on the slipway that had begun to take shape, and it was estimated that they would be able to launch within a year.

After inspecting the shipyard, Lin Yizhe went to visit the shipyard gun station again. After returning to the government office, several students who had studied ship design with Chief Engineer Dash Bo learned that Lin Yizhe had returned, and they all rushed into his house.

Seeing these hairy young men, Lin Yizhe's heart couldn't help but give birth to a kind of cordiality, as if he had returned to his college days.

Although Lin Yizhe is a history enthusiast, especially the history of the world's navies and ships, and also knows a lot of knowledge about ship design, but after all, he is not a professional, and he has to consult with the chief engineer of the shipyard Dash Bo for many times, in order to learn more about the knowledge of shipbuilding in this era, Lin Yizhe often mixes with the students of the shipbuilding school. And the students are also willing to discuss research with this unscrupulous official, and even enjoy it.

This time, he had been away from Fuzhou for too long, and the students missed him very much, so when they learned that he was back, they all rushed over immediately.

"Come on! Everyone, eat. Lin Yizhe smiled and took the dim sum plate brought by the servant and handed it to the students around him.

"Go make a pot of coffee...... Wait a minute. Lin Yizhe looked at the students again, "Or do you want to drink something else?" ”

"Thank you, teacher, the coffee will be fine." The students took the plate and stuffed a piece of dim sum into their mouths - Lin Yizhe was the same age as them, and he had no pretensions, so the students had no taboos between words and deeds, and they didn't even call him an adult, only called him teacher.

"This is Wu Huanqi, right?" Lin Yizhe looked at Wang Qiaonian, who was sitting on the side, the nearly 40 students of the Ship Master and Sailor Academy, and he was most optimistic about Wang Qiaonian - smart, capable, enthusiastic, and the most rare thing was the persistence that he had that he rarely saw in the young people in his original time and space.

Relatively speaking, he paid much less attention to Wu Dezhang, who has always been inseparable from Wang Qiaonian.

"It's the students." Wu Dezhang immediately got up and made a long bow to Lin Yizhe, "Student Wu Dezhang meets the teacher." ”

"Sit down, sit down, your own teachers and students, no formality." Lin Yizhe stretched out his hand and pulled Wu Dezhang back on the sofa and said with a smile.

"That's right, teacher." Wang Qiaonian on the side had already swallowed a piece of dim sum, "Teacher, didn't you design a new warship this time?" ”

"I've been working on a new armored clipper ship model for the past few days, and I just finished work today." Lin Yizhe smiled, beckoned, and motioned for the servant to fetch the model of the new armored cruiser that he had asked the craftsmen of the Internal Affairs Office to make when he was in the capital.

When he was in Beijing, Lin Yizhe thought most about the construction of new ships in his spare time.

Although he was familiar with the shipbuilding history of this era, it was still quite difficult for Lin Yizhe to design a new type of warship completely on his own, so he simply took a shortcut -- from some foreign warships that he was familiar with, he picked out the foreign warships that were more suitable for China at present and directly "brought them."

"This is the new armored clipper designed by the teacher?" Seeing the servant put a glittering bronze and wood ship model on the table, it was somewhat unexpected for Lin Yizhe to speak, and the first to speak was Wu Dezhang, who had been sitting quietly on the side.

"The teacher is really powerful, this new armored clipper, the firepower is more balanced than 'Weiyuan'." Wang Qiaonian almost "lay down" on the model of the cruiser that Lin Yizhe had just assembled last night, which he named "Kaiji", for fear of missing any details.

When Lin Yizhe heard Wang Qiaonian's praise, he couldn't help but secretly scream "ashamed" in his heart.

The "Kaiji"-class armored cruiser he designed was actually basically copied from the French "Duguturuin"-class cruiser, with some of his own designs.

Among the French cruisers of the same period, the "Dujutuin" class cruiser was not particularly outstanding in size and performance, but its armament really stood out from the crowd. It is equipped with a total of 4 earphones in the bow and stern, and the main guns are no longer installed in the ship's side guns or changing the mast installation method, but are mainly installed in the earrings, which can only be seen on ironclad ships in the current French Navy. The four 190 mm Type 1870 Ghanaian guns used as the main guns were installed in four ear mounts, and one was peculiarly mounted on the deck on the first floor. In order to avoid the bow of the ship, the gun also added a high base, so that the bow could get the fire of 3 main guns at the same time. Compared to its neighbor Britain, the French designer's style is bold and avant-garde. The secondary guns of the cruisers of the "Dujutuin" class were five Type 1870 140-mm Ghanaian guns, four of which were mounted on the broadside between the fore and aft ear platforms, and the remaining one on the aft deck. In addition, it has two 14-inch torpedo tubes, as well as a majestic French large-nose ramming horn head that is nearly 7 meters long.

"Dare to ask the teacher, I'm afraid that this ship is not specially designed for column tactics?" Wu Dezhang asked.

"You're right," Lin Yizhe nodded approvingly, "If you fight in a horizontal formation or a small formation, the bow of the ship will face the enemy, and the forward firepower is designed for this." ”

"The teacher must have been inspired by the Battle of Oilisa, and had such an idea." Wang Qiaonian got up and said, he looked at Lin Yizhe, his eyes were full of admiration.
