They are a silent reminder to those who come here that the sea is not far away, and the naval battle is not far away!

Lin Yiqing listened to the sound of the students reading aloud in the classroom, closed his eyes slightly, and let his body and mind gradually calm down with the sound of the students reading - no matter what others do, since I have come to this era, since I have decided to change this era, there is naturally no reason to retreat!

Even if it is the power of one person to save the fortunes of the country? In the original history, Li Hongzhang dared to take a corner of the Beiyang, the enemy and the Japanese to raise the country's army, as spicy as Liang Rengong, but also to praise the sentence "Hefei Hefei, although defeated, but also proud!" I, Lin Yiqing, am just a special forces soldier who picked up another period of life by luck, even if I fail, it is just a death in the form of a failed mission!

From the day he entered the special forces team, he had already looked down on life and death!

What's more, I'm not necessarily alone! Those who studied here were even more young students who had received the most modern military education in Qianguo at that time, and they would all be his comrades-in-arms!

They are the spark of this country!

Even if he is in his lifetime, he will end up like Li Hongzhang back then, but the fire has been sown, as long as the fire is not extinguished, there is still hope!

Thinking of this, Lin Yiqing became excited again.

Out of the teaching building, Lin Yiqing came to the front of the experimental building.

The laboratory building is one of the buildings that has not been completed for a long time. Different from the stone lion at the entrance of the teaching building, on both sides of the gate of the laboratory building, there are two ancient cannons of the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of the origin of these ancient cannons, the corners of Lin Yiqing's mouth couldn't help but smile.

He knew that these ancient cannons were not bought from antique dealers, but from the coastal forts in Fuzhou!

After Lin Yizhe led the naval division and the Huai army to defeat the Japanese invasion of Moswan, the imperial court once again realized the weakness of the coastal defense force of the Qianguo, and at the same time determined to "control the water", it strictly ordered the provinces to rectify their defense, and the ancient artillery on the Fuzhou coastal fort that had long lost its function as weapons was also abolished. The two ancient cannons cast in the Ming Dynasty in front of Lin Yiqing came from this.

On both sides of these two ancient cannons, there are also a number of cannons, which are also removed from the fort and no longer used, among them are the artillery of the Ming Dynasty, there are also the artillery cast in the early Qing Dynasty, and the artillery purchased by the Qianguo from foreign countries is now included in the obsolescence. These guns are of different sizes and shapes, but at a glance, you can still clearly distinguish which ones are "domestic products" and which ones are "foreign".

This is because most of the guns cast by Qianguo are extremely corroded, and many of the guns and barrels have large sand holes and pits, while foreign-made guns, although they are also corroded, are obviously much lighter, and show that the material is more sophisticated.

Thinking that foreign metallurgical technology is changing with each passing day and is still developing, and that Qianguo now does not have a real blast furnace that can smelt steel used to make guns, Lin Yiqing couldn't help but sigh again.

At present, the steel and iron materials used in the shipbuilding and gun manufacturing of the Harbour Master Bureau are still all imported!

Before his death, Lin Yizhe put forward the proposal of "revitalizing the mining industry to enrich the people's food and open up the source of salary" in the "Coastal Defense Planning", and as soon as it was written, it was besieged by stubborn conservatives!

Although the "mining opening" has been approved by the Empress Dowager Renxi and Prince Jing, and written into the "National Edict", I don't know how much resistance we have to face to really implement it!

Unconsciously, Lin Yiqing paced into the corridor.

In the corridor and at the corner of the staircase, there are many models of warships and weapons of various periods and navies, such as the old navy division and the steam water division of the Qianguo country. These models are like warships anchored in military ports, always waiting for the order to sail; It is like a condensed history of naval development, telling the past and future of the sea.

Looking at these vivid, clean, and spotless warship models placed in the glass cover, Lin Yiqing's heart sighed with emotion.

According to the system of the French Naval Academy, before class each morning, designated students take turns wiping the floating ash from the glass cover. The French believe that the students wipe away the dust, but what they leave behind is a deep responsibility to the motherland and the navy. If you encounter a major festival or receive an important guest, you can also see the "full flag" that can only be seen on the ship.

As for running schools, especially the naval school, Lin Yiqing estimated that Lin Yizhe was actually not very good at it, thanks to the experience of the French, it has today's scale. So Lin Yiqing can now understand why the French navy in this era is so powerful.

It is from this little thing that the hearts of the students are imperceptibly integrated with the navy!

Lin Yiqing walked out of the laboratory building and came to the campus.

In the garden of the campus not far away, a strangely shaped and old steam dinghy was moored as a gift from the French Far East Fleet.

Lin Yiqing walked to the dinghy and looked at the dinghy carefully.

The size of this dinghy is very small, the whole hull adopts a closed structure, there is no mast, there is only a chimney on the deck, and each hatch has an iron cover, and the whole shape is very similar to the pocket submarine of later generations.

But Lin Yiqing knew that this was not a submarine, and certainly not a torpedo boat.

And there is no pole in front of it, which also means that it is not a pole mineboat.

Lin Yiqing looked at the hatches covered with thick iron covers on the hull of the boat and the several square boxes with anchor-like iron hooks hanging on the side of the boat, and knew its combat method -- in battle, it would withstand the rain of bullets fired by the enemy ship, and with fast and solid protection, it would rush to the enemy ship, and the sailors inside would lean out, hang the mine with the iron hook on the enemy ship and ignite it, and then retreat at high speed and blow up the enemy ship.

From the current point of view, this method of warfare is not only dangerous, but also not easy to succeed, and it is often destroyed before it can get close to the enemy ship.

However, if it is placed in the naval battle more than ten years ago, it is undoubtedly a very effective combat method when the rate of fire and power of artillery are not as good as now!

It's a pity that history hasn't given it much of an appearance! In Lin Yiqing's impression, similar examples of war seem to have only appeared during the American Civil War.

The French Navy donated the useless dinghy to the Harbour Master's School, probably disposing of it as waste, but its presence here was a great inspiration to the students of the Harbour Master's School.

In fact, the French Navy was able to equip such boats because the French dared to innovate and accept new things.
