Glorious Mission 1937

Chen Feng has always attached great importance to the navy, and he is well aware of the importance of the navy.If the army is used to defend the country against foreign humiliation, then the greater role of the navy is external, and it is the sharpest offensive weapon.Since Columbus led the Spanish fleet to discover the New World of America in 1492, some emerging capitalist countries have begun to seize colonies around the world through the navy, forming a situation where the sea is used as a channel to compete for land colonies.

The strength of the navy is directly related to the performance of the country in foreign wars. Some countries with strong navies can even break through their own conditions and make leaps in cities and counties.Portugal, a veteran colonial country, took the lead in getting out of its small land space, dominating the sea, and established a huge colonial network from Gibraltar, the Cape of Good Hope to the Indian Ocean, the Strait of Malacca, and to the Far East.

At the same time, Spain on the Meseta Plateau also broke into the sea and competed with the Portuguese at sea. The latter finally defeated the former, mastered the trade monopoly between Europe, the Eastern countries and the Americas, and established a territory almost all over the world. emerging empire.

After defeating the Spanish "enemy fleet", Britain dominated the sea of ​​sword and fire. A small island country with only more than 20 square kilometers actually occupied a colony more than 100 times larger than its own territory and became The veritable "Empire on which the sun never sets".

And all of this is inseparable from the navy. It can be said that the rise and fall of the navy is directly related to the rise and fall of the country, and the strength of the navy is directly related to the destiny of the country.

However, it is a pity that when the world powers carve up the world, our braided dynasty is still resting on its laurels.When China was crumbling under the impact of the world's surging "tide" for colonies, the ignorant rulers still didn't know where the root of the country's disease was.

When Britain's strong ships and guns opened the door to China.When the news reached the ruling center of the Qing Dynasty, people did not think that the failure of the war was due to the cowardice of the Eight Banners and Green Camps of the Qing Dynasty, but attributed the failure of the war to Lord Xianfeng demolishing a bridge on the Yuyuan River. Like bending a bow, tearing down bridges is self-destructive martial arts.For a time, Fengshui books and periodicals filled the ruling center of the Qing Dynasty.

He also has his own navy in the county. Although it is very weak, Chen Feng will not give up. He wants to build a powerful navy for China. This is also the most important task of his inspection of the Nanyang Territory this time.

Chen Feng looked at all the senior officers in the conference room, then got up and said, "Tang Taizong Li Shimin once said that with copper as a mirror, one can straighten one's clothes, with history as a mirror, one can know the ups and downs, and with people as a mirror, one can tell right from wrong." The modern history of the world tells us in a naked and cruel way. Only the development of the navy can ensure that the country will not be invaded by the great powers. Emperor Guangxu of the late Qing Dynasty said in "Li Hongzhang and Shen Baozhen respectively supervised the coastal defense of the northern and southern oceans": Coastal defense The relationship is critical, that is, it is the most urgent task at present, and it is also a long-term plan of the country. The courseware navy is related to the national destiny.” [

"The navy is a symbol of a country. In any case, we cannot easily give up the country's coastal defense. The most powerful Qing "government" decades ago was not able to do so, so why should we not develop our navy well? In order to defend ourselves For coastal defense, the Qing government did not hesitate to spend huge sums of money to purchase warships from abroad. Take the Dingyuan ship imported from Germany as an example, it spent 340 million taels of silver to buy more than 7000 tons of iron-clad ships. On average, only 1 taels of silver were bought. The high price of the two railways was used to purchase warships. It must be said that the Qing "government" is still very determined in coastal defense construction. Therefore, we must catch up with the Japanese navy!"

Chang Zhiguo, the commander of the Yellow River Fleet, sighed and said, "Commander, the navy is different from the army and air force. The latter has a strong regenerative ability and can be quickly replenished if it is lost. The navy is a symbol of national power built by a country with all its efforts, and it is more suitable for show. If there is a fight, the ships are very fragile. If the navy is wiped out, the country will also be wiped out."

"Now we certainly need a navy, but we also need a strong army. The financial resources spent on building a naval fleet are enough to form 30-50 elite infantry divisions, so I think we should focus on the army and air force. Only Only in this way can the Japanese aggressors be driven out of China as soon as possible.”

Tian Haiyang also said: "Commander, as an admiral, I hope more than anyone else that the navy can become stronger, just like our army. But the real role of the navy is to protect coastal defense and conduct foreign ocean operations, and the army is the protection The main force of defending the country. Therefore, I also think that it is not appropriate to develop the navy. If one day we drive all the hateful Japanese devils out of China, then we will be responsible for developing the navy.”

"I don't understand what you are saying, but as I said, we are going to take a road that no one has traveled for thousands of years. We not only need to develop the army, but we also need to develop the navy. We have no shortage of Qian, you guys go down and have a good discussion to see how many advanced warships our navy needs to protect itself against Japan, and how many advanced warships do we need if we want to wipe out the combined fleet of the Japanese army?" Chen Feng said.

"commander"

Seeing what Jiang Haitao and the others wanted to say, Chen Feng interrupted them directly and said, "Stop talking, this is an order. As naval commanders, your main task is how to train the naval fleet well and how to destroy the Japanese army." Navy, you don't need to intervene in other matters!"

"Yes!"

The military officers in the meeting room talked for a while before Chen Feng announced the end of the meeting.

After the meeting was over, Chen Feng returned to the Lord's Mansion under the leadership of Yan Changxi. The mansion had already prepared lunch, which was very rich. In addition to Chen Feng's favorite meat and grilled steak, there was also a pot of stewed fish. In addition, there were some New Guinea dishes. Island-specific food and fruit, as well as a small barrel of beer.

Chen Feng hadn't drank beer for a long time, and he was delighted when he saw it.In addition, we had a meeting all morning and didn't have time to eat at noon. Chen Feng was indeed hungry. There was enough food for seven or eight people for him and Yan Changxi to eat up.

Feeling full and thinking about lust, after eating and drinking enough, Chen Feng carried Yan Changxi and went directly into the bedroom, seeing several maids in charge of Yan Changxi's daily life in the Lord's Mansion blushed with embarrassment.

After the storm, Yan Changxi leaned against Chen Feng's chest and asked softly, "Honey, how many days do you plan to stay here this time?"

Chen Feng sighed and said, "We should stay for a long time. The strength of the navy is too weak. Our navy must be strengthened. Otherwise, when the Japanese go south, this place is likely to be captured by the Japanese navy."

Yan Changxi frowned and asked: "How dare the Japanese attack the Nanyang Territory? Don't they fear Australia and the UK behind Australia? Besides, our Nanyang Territory is close to the Philippines of the United States. Don't the Americans worry about the Japanese troops going south?" [

Chen Feng smiled wryly: "Some time ago, the Japanese Navy was the Heilongjiang Fleet that ambushed at the gate of the US Navy base in Hawaii. American merchant ships were also attacked. I didn't see the Americans say anything, even a verbal protest. nor."

"As for Australia and the United Kingdom, let's not mention it. The British are now mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, so they don't have time to care about us."

Yan Changxi straightened up and said: "No way, I have studied in England. Britain is known as the empire on which the sun never sets, and its strength should not be underestimated. Besides, the Germans have already turned to attack the Soviet Union. Compared with the British, they should have a respite. Here's the chance!"

Chen Feng said with a smile: "British mainland indeed has a chance to breathe, but in Africa, the British have met their opponents!"

"Adversary, who?"

"Rommel, a German general!"

"Is it great?"

"It's more than powerful. When Hitler decided to send troops to Yugoslavia to help the Italians resist the Greek army's attack, he had already decided to send troops to Libya and Malta. You don't know Hitler. He is a war madman. I took advantage of this opportunity. Three months ago, Germany sent an "Afrika Korps" consisting of a lightly armed division and an armored division to North Africa to fight, and sent his confidant, Rommel, as the commander of the Afrika Korps."

"Rommel was one of the commanders of the German tank force. He was one of the main contributors to the German army's occupation of France. This Rommel is also considered amazing. As soon as he arrived in Africa, he took the initiative to launch a blitzkrieg to recapture Cyrene. Plus, he "pressed" at the gate of Egypt. Rommel was a man who did not care about hunger, was not afraid of cold and heat, and was tireless. He was tenacious and imaginative, quick in thinking and action, and always at the front line. Because he always Being with the soldiers, sharing weal and woe with them, and sharing all the dangers, he soon became a figure with great morale. In every respect, Rommel was a step ahead of the British Army; When they have the upper hand, the British can regain the upper hand."

Yan Changxi is so smart. After Chen Feng reminded her, she immediately understood the key point. She stared at Chen Feng with her big beautiful eyes, and said in surprise: "Then the British just don't have the energy to care about Asian affairs. If the British If people don't come forward, Australia alone will frighten and subsidize the Japanese."

"Yes! It is conceivable that even if the Japanese attacked us, the Australians and the British would probably only protest verbally, and they would never go to war with the Japanese for us. So we have to rely on ourselves, on our own Army, navy and air force. Again, never put your hope on others." Chen Feng said in a deep voice. (To be continued.
