Heiner and Richard's gold exchange in England was going very well, and at the same time, six 27,000-ton Sovereign-class battleships were officially completed and delivered for testing in a seaport in Hainan.

Watching the huge battleship sail out of the dock, Wang Lin suddenly remembered that the battleship he had worked so hard to build was about to be eliminated, and in 1914 Britain began to build this level of battleship, but before it was eliminated, there were just decades of dominance to pass.

It seems that I don't understand history or I'm quite depressed, but fortunately, this time I spent the money in the Red Police, if it was money in reality, Wang Lin also needed to feel distressed for a long time, after all, the money had been budgeted and used.

"Commander-in-Chief, these look a bit like the British Sovereign-class battleships, but no, the British Sovereign-class doesn't seem to be that big. You wouldn't have bought it from someone else, would you? Navy Vice Admiral Sa Zhenbing stood behind Wang Lin, looking at the 10,000-ton battleships in front of him, with huge bodies and 8 381 mm main guns, all of which gave Sa Zhenbing enough news to stun him.

"Although it looks like the Sovereign class on the outside, this is not the Sovereign class, his displacement is 10,000 tons larger than the Sovereign class, and the data is much better, this is a battleship we built ourselves, in order to build these six battleships, I have spent nearly seven years of effort." Wang Lin naturally couldn't tell him that this was made from the Red Police Base, and it was better for him to know the secrets of the existence of the Red Police Base.

What's more, now with the upgrade of the Red Police base, the combat distance of the Red Police soldiers has increased with himself, and Wang Lin can continue to keep the Red Police by his side with peace of mind, and he doesn't need to bring a bunch of soldiers when he goes out. And counting the current combat radius, the Red Guard soldiers have been fully able to undertake the main offensive tasks, as long as the three provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan are taken, and after stabilization, with the Red Guard base upgraded again, it is not difficult for the Red Guard soldiers to directly attack Yanjing.

Now the maximum combat distance between the Red Police soldiers and themselves can be 1,500 kilometers, and the straight-line distance between Yanjing and Haikou is more than 2,300 kilometers, and the distance from Sanya is only about 2,500 kilometers. They may not be needed for large-scale battles, but they are still used for small-scale battles and, incidentally, to train new special operations units.

At present, the combat distance between the air force and the navy has increased to 3,000 kilometers, and there is nothing wrong with the direct combat of the air force, but the navy is not walking in a straight line, so it is better to wait and make a decision.

"Brother Ding Ming, you go and arrange it, in a month, all the naval personnel will board the ship for internship, the number of standard combat personnel on each ship is between 670 and 720 people, and I have sent about 300 instructors on each ship, and they will teach them how to use this kind of large-tonnage warship." Wang Lin said slowly, fortunately there is a red alert, otherwise where would he find so many battleships that would use this latest type of battleship?

"Commander-in-Chief, what class does a battleship like ours belong to? And what are their names? Sa Zhenbing asked excitedly, he was very excited to have a few thousand-ton warships in the past, but now there are six 27,000-ton super battleships at once, how can he not be excited?

"Let's call it the Zhonghua-class battleship, as for the names of the warships, you go and tell the soldiers that the names of these six ships will be decided in a year, and they will be named after the most promising naval soldiers or officers with the best training results on these six ships, as for how to choose, I won't say anything, lest they secretly collude with the instructors and give an impression point." Wang Lin thought about it, and still felt that it was better to give people some hope, and it was nothing, it was indeed a very exciting thing to be named after a soldier, and it could also inspire the soldiers to fight and learn.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief." Sa Zhenbing quietly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. At first, he was not on the battlefield when the navy was in trouble, but in Yanjing to report on his work, and the news came later that the fight here was not going well, and Sa Zhenbing was needed to command, as the commander of the navy, Sa Zhenbing did not have doubts, and directly packed his things and boarded the ship to Guangzhou, and then went to Zhanjiang by land, but he ushered in not a battle, but a letter from all the warships.

It was not until this time that Sa Zhenbing knew that the entire navy had defected, and the letter said that the military strength and the lives of the people here, forced to have no choice but to come here to have a look, but I didn't expect to be really attracted after coming, it turned out that it was not only the navy that surrendered, but even the Beiyang Army, which drove away the green forest soldiers before and said that it was enough to deal with it, had all surrendered and was accepting the reorganization of the other party.

All kinds of things are attracting Sa Zhenbing, until he feels that he can no longer leave here, and what he saw today told Sa Zhenbing, Hainan, he was not wrong.

Half a year later, a cadet restaurant on the campus of the National Defense University, which has been established for a year, was specially requested by Wang Lin to be added, because now it is not as good as in the future, even military schools will have considerable holidays, but not now, not to mention that everything here is an absolute military secret, even this military school is not open to the outside world, if it is discovered all of a sudden, then they are very likely to suffer an unpredictable blow, no matter whether that thing will happen or not, Wang Lin does not want to give him a reason to happen.

In order to allow the students to have dinner without leaving the school, Wang Lin specially arranged several such restaurants, the owners are all famous chefs dug by Wang Lin from all over Hainan, giving them a certain amount of economic compensation, and subsidizing them to start their own businesses, plus they have their own skills, which fool is willing to stay under others for the rest of his life? Now, although the food fee here is much less than that outside, the money that the school compensates to them every month is enough to make themselves earn much more than them, and the only thing they need to abide by is that everything here is top secret, and their range of activities is also limited, only between the school gate and the restaurant, and everything here cannot be said, otherwise it will be dealt with as espionage, what is espionage? If you catch it, you'll lose your head.

In a restaurant called Sifang Famous Chef, in a private room, there are many former senior Beiyang officers and their recruit battalion commanders.

For example, Cao Kun and his recruit battalion commander Han Bin, as well as Yuan Shikai's recruit battalion commander Ren Chong, Wang Shizhen and his recruit battalion commander Li Shengli, Duan Qirui and his recruit battalion commander Han Sangui, Xu Shichang and his recruit battalion commander Chen Yu, Feng Guozhang and his recruit battalion commander Zhang Zhihe, Zhang Xun and his recruit battalion commander Qiu Jiyun and so on. At the beginning of the boot camp, they were absolutely the leaders of two factions, one was the leader of the recruits against the commander, and the other was the battalion commander who was responsible for the training of the entire team of instructors, and in the following days, they not only slowly became friends, confidants, and even brothers.

And Ming said that they were about to leave, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

"Han Bin, you kid dared to scold Lao Tzu like that in the new barracks, and now you graduated before me, and I'll go out later to see how I clean up your kid." Cao Kun, as a soldier who was domesticated by the joint efforts of Yuan Shikai, Ren Chong and Han Bin, had nothing else except for some dissatisfaction with Yuan Shikai's whereabouts.

"Okay, Brother Cao, junior brother remember this sentence, I'll wait for you to come out and clean me up later." Han Bin wiped away his tears and said that soldiers are the most painful when they leave, and it is only now that he truly understands the taste of this pain.

"Okay, okay, you two don't make the atmosphere so sad, didn't we say it was okay before? Play happily today, you are not allowed to cry, be strong, we are all soldiers of Hainan, and the soldiers of Hainan only shed blood, not tears. Ren Chong saw that everyone had a feeling of being instigated by the two of them, and hurriedly came out to explain.

"Brother Ren, you tell me the truth, why did the above arrange the comfort pavilion to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? And not the army? Wang Shizhen couldn't help but ask, because among them, only Ren Chong was the closest to him in the new barracks during that time, and he was also the most likely to find something boring.

"Yes, Brother Ren, don't hide it." Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to ask together, in fact, they also wanted to know why Yuan Shikai was sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"Since everyone wants to know, I also had an agreement with Weiting that I can't tell you before I graduate from my military academy, and now that I've graduated, you asked again, and it's nothing to tell you." Ren Chong took a sip of wine, slowed down and continued: "Actually, it was chosen by Weiting himself to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. ”

"Chosen by yourself? How can it be? He likes the army so much and knows so much about it? I can't think of a reason why he would choose to go to the Foreign Ministry and not stay in the army. Zhang Xun hurriedly said.

"It is true that he chose it himself, and it was decided before the new barracks, and there is no need to go to the new barracks with you when you go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but Weiting is afraid that a few of you will not obey the command and do not train seriously, so he applied to the commander-in-chief to go to the new barracks and train with you, and by the way, he also touched the bottom of the army, and in the future, he can have a bottom in his heart in terms of diplomacy. When he saw that Brother Cao was colliding with Han Bin, he asked me to scold him loudly, so that you can see how Weiting lives here, he hopes that through his own way, you can lower your mentality and share weal and woe with the soldiers, and he did it.

There are two main reasons why you can continue to stay in the army and not be demoted, one is that the commander-in-chief and the comfort pavilion do not want to see one by one military talents buried, and the other reason is that the comfort pavilion cannot continue to stay in the army, which will affect your combat thinking, and you need a new beginning. And the comfort pavilion also knew this, and readily agreed to the commander-in-chief's proposal, and the commander-in-chief also gave the comfort pavilion a lot of room to choose, except for the army, all the remaining departments can be chosen at will, so many good departments, so many departments that can get credit without hard work, comfort pavilion did not go, but went to the department that was most easily angry and scolded and not understood. To be honest, I admire a man like Comfort Ting, he is the only idol in my heart in my life other than the commander-in-chief. Ren Chong told Yuan Shikai's experience in one breath.

The people of Beiyang never thought that Yuan Shikai would leave the army in order to let go of their minds, and Wang Lin also forced Yuan Shikai to leave the army in order to make his people have greater achievements in the future, in short, the two of them did this in order to be able to see that these people in their seats could have a better tomorrow.

Since Weiting went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, they still understand the truth that weak countries have no diplomacy, and since this is the case, then becoming a strong country starts with their own hands.
