Chapter 203: Review on
September 15, 1900.
Aihui, the Four Seasons Fishing Village, by the Heishui River, is the training place of the First Fleet of the Black Dragon Army Naval Division.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, the first fleet of the Black Dragon Army's naval division has been lined up, please instruct." Guo Huai, deputy commander of the Black Dragon Army's naval fleet, reported.
"Let's get started." Yue Weihua nodded, returned a military salute, and said.
"Yes."
Guo Huai took the order and left.
Guo Huai is the chief soldier of the original Nenjiang Naval Division Battalion, because of his timely surrender, the Black Dragon Army was able to smoothly incorporate the Nenjiang Naval Division Battalion, for which Yue Weihua did not treat him badly, and directly gave him the position of deputy commander of the First Fleet of the Naval Division, of course, this is also to be able to quickly integrate the soldiers and auxiliaries of the original Nenjiang Naval Division Battalion into the Black Dragon Army.
The officers of the three targets of the original Nenjiang Navy Division Battalion, all of whom were above the main position of the team were basically eliminated from the ranks, because most of these officers were in cahoots with the original Du Yu and other three assistant staff leaders, and only left some sailors, as well as all the auxiliaries, totaling about 2,000 people, all of whom were incorporated into the First Fleet of the Naval Division, plus the team originally brought by Luo Qing from the 102nd Regiment and the recruits recruited from the society, so that the number of the current First Fleet of the Naval Division has reached a full strength of more than 3,500 people.
Of course, if you count the 1,500 marines of Qiao San's department who trained with the First Fleet of the Naval Division, then the personnel of this fleet are currently as high as nearly 5,000 people, which can be regarded as the military unit with the largest number of personnel in the Black Dragon Army.
Therefore, although the First Fleet and the Marine Corps of the Navy Division have not been formed for a long time, it is the first stop of Yue Weihua's inspection of the training of various regiments, and it can also be seen that Yue Weihua attaches great importance to the fleet and the Marine Corps of the Marine Division.
Thundered!
Thundered!
Thundered!
As Guo Huai waved the command flag, the river ships and gunboats in the middle of the river began to carry out rounds of shelling towards their intended targets, Yue Weihua also picked up the high-powered binoculars and watched, but as the bombardment progressed, Yue Weihua's brows became more and more wrinkled, which made Luo Qing, the commander of the fleet who was accompanying him, feel more and more pressure.
More than ten minutes later, the bombardment ended, and the report cards were also passed through the flag.
"The No. 1 river wheel, 10 actual shells, 3 hits the target area, and 0 precision strikes."
"No. 2 River Wheel,......
"Alright, don't read it." Yue Weihua interrupted Guo Huai, who was reporting the results, and then continued: "The fleet formation time is too short, and the training results are poor, in fact, it is also expected, in fact, to be able to run the entire fleet in just ten days, to be able to start dozens of ships, and to make all the guns on the ship fire, this is already a great achievement, so you don't have to worry too much." ”
Hearing Yue Weihua say this, Luo Qing's face looked better, although what Yue Weihua said was everything, but today's achievement is indeed too ugly, but as Yue Weihua said, it is good to be able to run this fleet and fire these naval guns, which can be regarded as an explanation.
"Commander-in-chief, we will definitely train hard and pass the fleet level as soon as possible." Luo Qing said.
"Yes." Yue Weihua nodded, then looked at Guo Huai, with a smile on his face, and took the lead in stretching out his hand, and said: "Deputy Commander Guo, speaking of which, this is the first time we have met, welcome to join the big family of the Black Dragon Army." ”
"Hello, Commander-in-Chief." Guo Huai held Yue Weihua's hand and responded a little nervously: "It is said that heroes are young people, and seeing that the commander-in-chief is so young and has made such great achievements, Guo Huai is ashamed." ”
"Hehe, the Black Dragon Army can have today, but it is not my own credit, but the result of all the members of the entire Black Dragon Army family working together and fighting together." When Yue Weihua said this, he changed his words and said: "Commander Luo has praised you for your good training, and you will have to worry more about the training of the naval fleet in the future." ”
"My subordinates will do their best." Guo Huai replied solemnly.
"Oh, by the way, there is something I almost forgot to tell you, before coming, our intelligence department called, saying that your son and family have left Shengjing City safely, congratulations." Yue Weihua suddenly mentioned.
"Subordinate, thank you Commander-in-Chief, your subordinates are cattle and horses,......
Guo Huai was so excited that he was about to kneel, but Yue Weihua quickly helped him, and then interrupted: "Deputy Commander Guo, we will be a family in the future, don't say thank you or not, train the army well, it is the best reward for me." ”
"The subordinates must live up to the high expectations of the commander-in-chief."
After everyone chatted for a while, the fleet began to dock one after another, Yue Weihua was also accompanied by Luo Qing, Qiao San and Guo Huai, and boarded the ship together to inspect, whether it was for river ships and gunboats, Yue Weihua was no stranger, but when he boarded the first river ship, Yue Weihua still had an inexplicable feeling.
It is said that whether a country is strong or not depends mainly on whether the country's navy is strong, because only when the navy is strong can you defend the land from aggression, and only then can you go to the world and have a dialogue with the great powers of other countries, otherwise, everything is not to be discussed.
The Black Dragon Army has just started, and the First Fleet of the Navy Division has just been established, but after all, there has been a beginning, so the next thing to do is to expand the Navy Fleet, and make a reserve of technology and talents for the development of the Black Dragon Army's own navy, I believe that in the near future, the Navy fleet of the Black Dragon Army will definitely gallop in any corner of the world.
"Why are they being tied up?"
When Yue Weihua entered the Jianglun gun room, he saw several Tsarist Russian soldiers tied there, in fact, these Tsarist Russian soldiers were all artillery or technical soldiers on the previous ship, of course, the reason why they appeared here was naturally to let them teach our soldiers.
"Commander-in-chief, in fact, at the beginning, we also respected these Tsarist Russian prisoners, and we didn't tie them up, after all, respecting teachers and respecting the way is our Chinese tradition, but a few days ago, two Tsarist Russian prisoners on a ship took advantage of our unpreparedness and launched an attack, resulting in two of our soldiers being killed on the spot, and almost causing the battleship to get out of control, so we had to make this decision." Luo Qing said helplessly.
"Well, the issue of security cannot be ignored." Yue Weihua paused, and then said: "But it will definitely not work to be tied up like this, Commander Luo is right, respect the teacher, this is our tradition, and if we can't let these captives teach us willingly, I'm afraid we may not be able to learn the real skills, so this problem must be solved." ”
"We've been trying to figure out a way, but we haven't thought of a proper way yet." Luo Qing smiled bitterly.
"This kind of thing, this is the first time we have encountered it, and it is understandable that we are inexperienced, but as long as we use our brains, we will definitely be able to find a set of effective methods."
"In fact, it is nothing more than to stimulate from two aspects, one is to reward and the other is to severely punish."
"In terms of rewards, for example, set a standard, and if we meet this standard, we can release them, give them freedom, or reward them with money, etc., I think this kind of temptation, I'm afraid many Tsarist Russian officers and soldiers can't stop it."
"As for severe punishment, perhaps, we can use the method of joint sitting, where one person commits a crime, and all of them are severely punished, so that they can supervise themselves internally,......
"Also, can we also cultivate some Russian traitors?"
"Hehe, Commander-in-Chief, it's Gao Ming, I understand."
