Lu Hong stood on the Pingyuan Ship Bridge and walked around, and with the first-level evaluation system, he could get accurate parameters by scanning the weapons on the battleship, which made him excited, and he scanned the weapons on the battleship before and after.

This naturally attracted the attention of the sailors on the ship, and when he ran to the foredeck and stood in front of the 260mm main gun, the main gun that was still wrapped in a gun jacket at this time, and his mighty figure always had the urge to make every man want to rub it, but it made him feel like he had returned to the military base he had stayed in in later life.

"This boy, the battleship is sailing, and the bow of the ship is relatively bumpy, please go back to the cabin quickly!" A hoarse and deep voice sounded from behind Lu Hong.

When Lu Hong was wandering on the foredeck, he was also stunned, and when he turned around, he saw a young officer wearing blue navy five-cloud and wheat skin color walking down from the covered bridge with two subordinates, and he immediately noticed that there were three golden thin bars on the sleeves of the other party's shirt, which was naturally the rank identification of the Beiyang Naval Division, and he also vaguely remembered that the admiral was the thickest gold bar, and the captain was four medium gold bars...... Obviously, this is a mid-ranking officer.

"What do you call this military master?" Lu Hong was naturally not interested, so he went back to the cabin to be bored now, so he arched his hand and started talking.

The young officer originally didn't plan to talk to Lu Hongduo, but this young scholar was said to be the nephew of Huang Tifang, a third-grade senior officer in your cabin, and he was not rude, so he replied a little stiffly: "Teach Tang Wenjin in the guns of the Xiapingyuan ship...... Childe, this gun position is easy to go up the waves, please move! ”

However, Lu Hong was obviously interested in this gun teaching called Tang Wenjin, in the navy, this artillery skill is a very important subject, and this young man who seems to be only in his early twenties and younger than himself can actually serve as a gun instructor, which shows that he must be outstanding.

He nodded and arched his hand, "In Xia Luhong, I just returned from an overseas study tour, but I have come into contact with some Taixi artillery, so I am a little interested in this 260mm naval gun." ”

Tang Wenjin originally thought that Lu Hong was an ordinary child of a family, but when he heard Lu Hong say the caliber of the Pingyuan main gun as soon as he opened his mouth, he was also surprised.

This is just one of the accidents, Lu Hong himself introduced that he returned from overseas, this is naturally the second accident, however, among the Beiyang Naval Division, there are not a few officers who have overseas study experience, and he himself just graduated from the artillery department of the Greenwich Naval School a few years ago, so after returning to China, he has already served as an artillery instructor at a young age.

As soon as they heard Lu Hong's self-introduction, the common point between the two of them studying and being familiar with artillery skills immediately made Tang Wenjin's wheat-complexion face show a bit of cordiality, "Lu Gongzi, I don't know where you studied overseas?" And in which country did you learn the art of gunnery? ”

For this question, Lu Hong had actually prepared the answer a long time ago, but he didn't expect to use it now, "I studied at the University of Plymouth in England, under the tutelage of Professor Thomas, and studied at the Dwynbot Naval Shipyard, so I have a little bit of knowledge in gunnery...... Tang Jiaoxi, could it be that he also studied overseas? ”

Tang Wenjin laughed and said: "Lu Gongzi, I'm just curious, I just returned from the Greenwich Naval Academy two years ago, and I have rarely heard of Taixi's military situation in the past two years, you just returned to China, I don't know what news there is?" I've heard the new Westerners, Nigros, say that the British have done a lot of naval feats! ”

Negros ...... Lu Hong smashed his mouth, this should be a foreign teacher in the Beiyang Naval Division, but Tang Wenjin turned out to be a graduate of the Greenwich Naval Academy, which is somewhat surprising, no wonder it is already three thin gold bars and guns to teach and learn, but I don't know how many grades of military rank it is.

However, if he wants to hear news from overseas, this is too simple, he carefully thought about the history of the development of the world's navy in this era, there is no doubt that the real cross-era naval event that can be talked about in the year of the First Sino-Japanese War is undoubtedly the sequence of the monarch-class battleships entering the Royal Navy in the pre-dreadnought era.

"Tang Jiaoxi, as far as I know, the British Royal Navy's most advanced first-class battleship Sovereign class has been fully listed, a total of 8 ships have been built, with a displacement of 14,000 tons, and the armament is a terrace turret type 12-inch, 35 times the diameter of the twin main guns, 10 150mm rapid-fire guns, 16 57mm, 47mm machine guns, for this reason, the Times also distributed photos of the Royal Navy cruise!"

Lu Hong seemed to casually talk about the intelligence of the Royal Navy in this era that he knew, and the source of the news was naturally from the British newspapers he read, anyway, the British newspapers were leakers, and it was impossible for anyone to refute him, and he glanced at Tang Wenjin out of the corner of his eye, but saw that this guy's expression was obviously an expression of envy, jealousy and hatred.

"Master Lu, aren't you there...... Have you ever seen this Sovereign-class battleship at the Dweinbot Naval Shipyard? Or other new British battleships, say a little more! Obviously, the little fur that Tang Wenjin just heard couldn't satisfy his exuberant curiosity at all, and he didn't rush Lu Hong into the cabin at this time, but had a curious expression on his face.

"Of course, I haven't seen it, I just saw the introduction in the British newspaper!" Lu Hong immediately denied this guy's speculation, he didn't expect this guy to be a very majestic officer just now, and when he heard the news of the warship, he immediately became a curious baby, it seems that he can't say much, otherwise he will inevitably be asked by this guy.

Tang Wenjin showed a disappointed expression, however, it was obvious that his recognition of Lu Hong had increased greatly, "Lu Gongzi, I can see that you are also well-informed, I saw you probing before and after the Pingyuan ship, I don't know what you think of this battleship?" ”

Lu Hong heard it, it turns out that your kid has been keeping an eye on himself for a long time, and he will take a look before and after, that is, he will be able to visit it in person, after all, the people who have traveled through the past few hundred years can personally go to the battleship that has participated in the First Sino-Japanese War to observe one or two, this is a rare opportunity, but since he asked himself, he naturally can't let this guy look down on him.

"Excellent!! It's a pity that after so many years, the next Pingyuan has not been built...... As far as I know, the year before last, I had already built their first 3,200-ton armored cruiser, the Akitsuzu...... I don't know what Tang Jiaoxi evaluates? ”

Lu Hong's original words were returned to Tang Wenjin, but the guy frowned and didn't speak for a long time, but this-for-tat conversation actually shortened the distance between the two, and they were at the forefront of this great era, and the impact of these news on Tang Wenjin was obviously not small, and the two stood beside the side of the boat and looked at the sea reflected by the sunset, silent.

Later, in the command room of the bridge of the Pingyuan ship, Li He, who had a solemn expression on his face, touched his mustache, and after listening to Tang Wenjin's description in front of him, he was also silent for a moment, and then said in a slightly tired tone: "Wenjin, since this is the case, then there is no need to send someone to keep an eye on it, I think the origin of this surnamed Lu should be fine!" ”
