"Okay, then you can tell me well, how those people are useless, how can you use three people and one teacher in your mouth?"

After asking rhetorically, Tang Haoran picked up the teacup and drank the tea silently, he waited for Su Yueyang's answer, is this young man really useful, or is he just a crazy man?

Crazy people can also tell the truth, but the purpose of what they say is just to quote attention and seek a way to advancement.

"Reply to adults!"

Su Yueyang had long been accustomed to the reprimands of others, and he just replied calmly.

"And don't ask all the people in the academy to aspire to the imperial examination, not the navy is just in terms of the training of naval officers, the first is the creation of military bravery, if there is no military courage to support, how can we talk about naval warfare, when we see the enemy, we will fight when we see the enemy, and we are not afraid of strong enemies?"

When he asked rhetorically, Su Yueyang's expression was slightly mocking, and at this time he thought of those classmates.

However, the Sailor Academy has never considered how to cultivate "the martial arts of soldiers", and is only satisfied that the cadets can be able to pilot, so it is said that it is training naval officers, let alone cultivating talents who can drive ships. ”

Su Yueyang's comment made Tang Haoran nod his head thoughtfully, and the sarcasm of the Manchu Navy by later generations was no different.

"The students in the academy have no military spirit, all of them are weak, they have no naval ambition, they don't have the courage of soldiers, and even more of them are like women, they are either in a daze or do homework after class, and never exercise. For them, it may be more suitable for them to stay in the school and read poetry than to be at sea. And when he went on the ship for practice, he was also reluctant to exercise, especially disgusted with the mast-climbing and mast climbing operations of the navies of various countries, which were not assigned by the officials, and no one was willing to do it, the first batch of 12 selected international students sent to study in the United Kingdom that year, two of them had to drop out because they were too weak to complete their studies. Limited to simple foot exercises, the reason is that they are afraid of strictness, and students dare to ask adults, can such people be used by adults? ”

Su Yueyang's successive rhetorical questions only made Tang Haoran's brows tightened, he was full of good feelings about Beiyang, thinking that the defeat of the Yellow Sea was defeated by the Manchu Qing, not the navy, the Beiyang Navy's shell hit rate was much higher than that of the Japanese army, not inferior to the British Royal Navy, the defeat was due to the defeat of the inferior personnel and strategic mistakes, especially the defeat of the army and the navy was lone and difficult to defeat, while the navy itself was remarkable, and it was by no means worthy of the name of the modern army.

But now Su Yueyang's words have subverted the cognition in a certain way, in any army, the officer is the soul of the army, if his soul is not strong and brave enough, how can the army be a strong army?

"Therefore, those who use it by adults must at least have an indomitable will and a strong physique, and this alone can eliminate all the people in the school! No need to quote! Otherwise, the person who is practiced by adults is just a water master who changes the soup and does not change the medicine! ”

Nodding slightly, Tang Haoran stared at Su Yueyang and asked rhetorically.

"Then in your opinion, what if this officer wants to run a navy?"

"In fact, in the hearts of adults, there are already answers, so why do students need to solve them?"

Kicking the problem back to Tang Haoran, Su Yueyang was silent, and Tang Haoran smiled bitterly in his heart.

Already have an answer?

In fact, the answer is very simple, it is nothing more than to start anew and re-train the generals, but time is ...... Is there a hurry?

While Tang Haoran frowned and pondered, Su Yueyang continued.

"My lord, the person who went to North Korea is not only for North Korea to train a new type of land and water division, from the point of view of the students, what the adults do, except for the land and water division of our DPRK stationed in North Korea, to establish a new land and water division with the power of North Korea, it is not only feasible to supervise the country, but also to deter foreign countries, since the adults want to set up a new land and water division, they should establish a school to train officials, otherwise the water division will not work!"

The reason why he came to visit the prime minister stationed in the DPRK was because Su Yueyang believed that he was not training a new army for the DPRK, but using the power of the DPRK to train the new army stationed in the DPRK, and this naval division was also a naval division stationed in the DPRK.

"In this way, it is not the work of more than ten years, but it can't be done!"

Tang Haoran shook his head slightly, his words were full of helplessness, did he have more than ten years?

"My lord, Yu Taixi said that ten years of the army, a hundred years of the navy, the army can build an elite division in ten years or even a few years, on the other hand, the navy needs to go through many years or even more than a hundred years of accumulation before it can become an army, if Britain was impatient, how could it defeat Spain first, and then France, if Napoleon had equal patience, how could there be a defeat of Trafalgar?"

The words seemed very simple in Su Yueyang's mouth, but Tang Haoran didn't know the truth of the century-old navy, didn't he know that naval construction is a long-term project that requires the efforts of several generations, but what is behind this truth?

Moreover, China is not a seafaring country in the first place, and the Chinese's sense of sea power is not a yearning for the sea, not that it is the sea power consciousness forced by maritime threats.

What's more, even if you have the patience to build a strong enough navy in twenty, thirty, or even fifty years, will the Manchu court give yourself so much time?

Japan?

That oriental neighbor was like a magic spell, always influencing Tang Haoran's decision and influencing his judgment. If, four years later, we don't have a usable navy, how can we stop Japan's tiger and wolf heart?

But...... It's better to do it now than to do it again in a few years!

After thinking for a moment, Tang Haoran stood up, glanced at Su Yueyang first, and paced back and forth in the room several times before staring at him and said.

"Su Yueyang, I am willing to go to North Korea with this official to show what I have learned!"

"Students are naturally willing to go!"

If he wasn't willing to go to North Korea to participate in the construction of a new navy, how could Su Yueyang recommend himself, and after getting this answer, his dark face was slightly red.

"However, adults and adults, students are only under the first class in their studies during school, and I am afraid that they will ......"

"This official does not pay attention to study, but only real talent, if you really have real talent, he will wait for the training of the navy stationed in North Korea one day, and this officer will promote you as the commander of the fleet stationed in North Korea!"

Tang Haoran's words only made Su Yueyang's eyes feel hot, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

"The humble duty will live up to the grace of the adult's knowledge, if the adult is sent in this life, the humble duty will not be exhausted, and the liver and brain will be ruined!"

Looking at Su Yueyang, who was kneeling on the ground and expressing his loyalty, although he knew that this oath was not true, but at this moment, Tang Haoran understood what the spirit of the king was for a long time, and it was just the spirit of the king that Xu Yiguan made out, and it was also the same as thinking about it, if it is not beneficial, who will mix with you, even in the future generations, the big guys are vying to be friends with the local tyrants, isn't it also a benefit!

Secretly proud that he had finally exhibited the so-called domineering spirit, Tang Haoran hurriedly helped Su Yueyang up and said with a smile.

"It's too early to say anything to repay now, this official now wants to run a new policy and train a new army, it can be said that he is thirsty for talents, first talk about the one teacher and three students you said earlier!"

“…… Li Han is a native of Qingzhou, Shandong, and Fang Zimin is the same as the lowly position, a native of Zhili......"

When mentioning the two classmates, Su Yueyang's expression was somewhat embarrassed, the reason why he came to Tang Haoran was not because he was not appointed after graduation, the students in the Sailor Academy will enter Beiyang for use after graduation, but the pipes of the Beiyang ships are mainly Fujianese, although the nepotism is the Zhongtang intentionally changed is still inevitable, not to mention the ordinary Sailor Academy students, even the Sailor Admiral Ding Ruchang is also more humble to the Fujianese in the Sailor, and although there are many previous graduates who have been appointed, they are rejected by the Fujianese, if you are a Fujianese, Yu Shuishi is naturally easy to be promoted, and people from other provinces outside Anhui like them have a very slim future in the Shuishi without coincidence.

"My lord, those who are good at the sea are not on the coast, although the humble and the two classmates are inland people, they can ask themselves how to operate ships, guns, and engines are not inferior to others, and they are even more happy to practice on the ship, such as climbing ropes and masts, and when it comes to martial arts and perseverance, they are far more than several times others, if they can be called by adults, they will be willing to be driven by adults!"

Hearing him say this, Tang Haoran just nodded slightly, looked at Su Yueyang and smiled.

"Xinping, since I use you, I will not doubt you, the person you recommend, I should use it, who is the teacher in your mouth? If it is like a strict restoration, I am afraid that my temple will not be able to accommodate it! ”

"Back to the adult,"

The adult's joke made Su Yueyang quickly stand up again and say.

"Although the chief teacher has the name of the first person in the ship administration of the country, but in the eyes of the humble position, he has a sense of over-famousness, and the first officer of the navy is cultivated, and in the humble view, among the foreign divisions of the Sailor Academy, the only one who can be used is only Ma Jifen!"

Magifin?

Hearing this foreign name, Tang Haoran couldn't help but be stunned, he was no stranger to this name, this historical Beiyang Navy Division, can be said to be the Beiyang Navy Division, the most reputable person, his fellow Navy Division participated in the "Dadonggou Naval Battle" and worked together with the Chinese naval officers and sailors at that time to fight against the Japanese Combined Fleet. Seriously wounded, with the annihilation of the Beiyang Fleet, after returning to the United States, he spent all day running around the major public opinion exchange places in the United States at that time, giving speeches everywhere, describing the heroic battles of the Chinese fleet. Outraged by the public opinion that the "Chinese fleet" was in the West for the injustice suffered by the "Chinese fleet" in the West. Two years later, on the second anniversary of the suicides of Ding Ruchang and Yang Yonglin on Liugong Island, he committed suicide in the United States Hospital in anger, and according to his will, when he was buried, his body was dressed in the military uniform of the "Beiyang Naval Division," and the coffin was covered with the Yellow Dragon Flag, the flag of the Chinese Navy that he had brought back from China and had been hoisted on the "Zhenyuan" ship. However, among the many foreigners of the Beiyang Naval Division at that time, he never wore the military uniform of the Beiyang Naval Division - because of his ugliness, he was the only one who dedicated his whole qiē to that fleet.

"Oh, why is that?"

Tang Haoran was curious why Su Yueyang valued this Ma Jifen so much.

"My lord, there are more than a dozen foreigners in the Sailor Academy, those who are important to foreigners, only the school offers a generous salary, and the ambition is only silver and white, and its ambition is not to educate people, so naturally it will not be dedicated, only Majifen teaches what he has learned in the classroom, and unlike other foreigners, when he served in the Ordnance Bureau, he did not have a greedy kickback in the purchase of arms, perhaps, his naval knowledge is only in the middle and upper, but he is a usable person in terms of character."

Su Yueyang's words made Tang Haoran nod, and just as he was about to speak, Liu Si walked in again, with a smile on his face.

"My lord, from the ninth rank of the Martial Arts Academy, Shang Dequan, Wu Dingyuan, Kong Qingtang, and Teng Yuzao ask to see your lord!"

(Hehe, the family opened a treasure shop, the day before yesterday in the group to say a little, but I didn't think that yesterday and today I don't know that the two brothers came, one took three, one took six without saying a word, speechless that is a moved, no side, tomorrow plus more!) Thank you for your love and support! ）
