Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

On November 1894, 11, a British transport ship loaded with iron and steel smelting equipment sailed into the port of Ryukyu, which also brought news of the battle between the German fleet and the Beiyang Fleet.

This news surprised Lin Yuan, he never thought that their travel would have such a great impact on the progress of history.

During this month, he had to solve a lot of problems.First of all, there is the issue of the status of the Beijing ship. If they are outside the country's institutional system, problems will inevitably arise in the long run. Therefore, Lin Yuan and Shangtai decided after discussion to designate a certain area of ​​Naha Port as a special administrative region. It is managed by Beijing Ship, and its external name is "Naha Technology Development Zone".Economically, the port area is engaged in industrial production, and a certain percentage of income goes to the Ryukyu government.

The second is the issue of food, clothing, housing and transportation for the crew on the ship. The cabins on the ship have a small living space, which is not suitable for people to live in during peacetime. Therefore, when the Beijing ship docked, the older engineers and scientists on the ship had already been arranged. Fortunately, the Japanese barracks near the port were empty, so they arranged for people to move in in turn; as for the problem of food, there is an old saying that people rely on the sea to eat the sea, so the ship decided to buy seafood from the fishermen near the port. Let the Ryukyu government borrow some of it first, and return it after there are industrial products in the port area.

The third is the ideological problem of the crew on the ship. After leaving their relatives and friends and coming to this strange era, everyone is inevitably sad. This kind of emotion is not easy to reflect in battle, but in peacetime Sad emotions inevitably spread among the crowd.Fortunately, everyone expressed their understanding of the current situation. When encountering this kind of time travel that cannot be explained by modern physics, they had no choice but to live with the situation. Therefore, the personnel on the ship actively devoted themselves to various tasks.

Finally, it is the statistics of weapons and equipment. Since weapons and equipment cannot be adequately supplied in this era, a little less is needed, so we must plan carefully. Take an aero engine as an example, the use time of the whole machine cannot exceed a certain number of flight hours , and engine blades, whether it is compressor blades or turbine blades, must use observation equipment to observe cracks after flight. Once cracks appear, the blades must be replaced.

Some fighters pointed out that why is it so troublesome to count these things? We flew directly to Japan, Europe, and the United States to blow up their industrial base!

When Lin Yuan heard this point of view, he thought he was joking, but after asking, he realized that some people really thought so, so he had to explain, what is the industrial base?It’s not just a few factories and mines. These are only a small part of the industrial base. The larger part is scientific researchers, university professors, and students who are studying. They are the mainstay of the industrial base. More importantly: The market has a huge demand for industrialization.

Even if you can raze other people's factories and mines to the ground, you can't kill everyone who knows science and technology!As long as these people are there, as long as the market demand is there, they will continue to build factories and produce everything that industry needs!

As for the Beijing ship, after the weapons and equipment are exhausted, there is nowhere to replenish them. This is the most fundamental reason why Lin Yuan wants to develop his own industry!

While the soldiers on the Beijing ship were busy with various things, the news of Sino-German war, Qing court compensation, and Deng Shichang's exile spread to Ryukyu.

When Lin Yuan heard the news, he couldn't help being shocked and excited. He gradually formed a plan in his mind: bring Deng Shichang to Ryukyu, let him train personnel, and use those captured Japanese warships.

When Lin Yuan talked about this idea, everyone on the ship thought it was very ingenious, everyone agreed, and finally decided to let Shen Wanqing accompany Lin Yuan to Taiwan.

Shen Wanqing and Zhang Hua are in charge of setting up the Naha District Secrecy Office. They say it is a Secrecy Office, but in fact it is far from the scale imagined. There are no other reasons, and there are too few people. Therefore, at present, the comrades of the Beijing Ship Secrecy Team can only be used as the leader. Core, training secret agents.

The two haven't seen each other for a month, and they are very happy to meet each other.Shen Wanqing first asked: "Where can we find Deng Shichang?"

Lin Yuan said: "This is what I think. Let's go to Keelung to look for him first. After all, he is also the leader of the Beiyang Fleet. His rank is not low. It shouldn't be difficult to find him."

As soon as Lin Yuan and Shen Wanqing arrived in Keelung, they found that the Sino-German naval battle was being discussed in the streets and alleys, and they all felt sorry for Deng Shichang. After a little inquiry, they found out where Deng Shichang was being held.

It was not so much detention as house arrest. The place where he was detained was a squire's mansion, and a small quiet courtyard was vacated inside. Deng Shichang's wife and children did not come with him, so he lived alone.

When they came to the house, they found that there was an endless stream of visitors, most of whom were well-known gentry from some places. Officials would not dare to come here to visit a criminal, but the visitors were blocked by the door. The soldiers were stopped, and the soldiers called the visitors aside, whispered a few words, and the people went away in a panic.

Lin Yuan stopped a person who was rejected, and asked with a smile: "Brother, why didn't Deng Guandai not see you?"

The man looked panicked and waved his hands again and again, as if he had encountered something terrible, and left without saying anything.

When Lin Yuan was puzzled, Shen Wanqing said: "I think these people seem to be stumped by some problem."

Lin Yuan asked, "What does this mean?"

Shen Wanqing said: "According to my observation, the soldier guarding the gate seemed to ask the visitor a few questions, but the visitor couldn't answer, so he left."

Lin Yuan asked: "What kind of question will the soldiers ask? It will make these people look restless."

Shen Wanqing smiled and said, "Well, just wait, I'll go and have a look, and I'll tell you when I come back, so you should be prepared."

She looked at Lin Yuan who was full of confusion, pointed her lips with her finger, and said with a smile, "I can tell what a person is saying from the movement of his lips."

So Lin Yuan waited on the sidelines, and after a while, Shen Wanqing came back with a disappointed expression on her face, and said, "I don't understand, they don't seem to be speaking Mandarin."

Seeing her cute appearance, Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing, and said, "It's okay, I don't believe that a person in the 19th century can ask any questions that I, a person in the 21st century, can't answer."

Lin Yuan stepped forward, and the soldiers politely took him aside, and said something in Hokkien, Lin Yuan frowned, and asked in Mandarin, "What did you say?"

When the soldier heard this, he immediately switched to Mandarin and said with a smile, "If you want to see Deng Guandai, you have to answer a question for me."

Lin Yuan was full of confidence and asked, "Please tell me."

The soldiers laughed and said, "Da Qing, where will we go?"

As soon as this question came up, Lin Yuan immediately understood why those people looked panic-stricken. At that time, this kind of question seemed to be a big treason, and talking about this question, if people knew about it, would kill their heads.

Lin Yuan was taken aback by this question. This question had been circling in his mind for a long time, but he still didn't know what to do. Go to the Qing court to be a minister of ZTE?Absolutely impossible!It is even more impossible to go to Beijing to proclaim yourself emperor. After all, you are a person in the 21st century, and the concept of a democratic republic has been deeply rooted in your bones.In his view, the difficulty of dealing with the Qing government is no less than allowing the fleet to travel back to the 21st century.

So Lin Yuan didn't speak for a long time. Others couldn't answer because they didn't dare to think, and Lin Yuan couldn't answer because they thought too much, but the soldier guarding the gate didn't care about these things. Sir, please come back."

Seeing that he was rejected like this, Lin Yuan's heart moved, and a way to see Deng Shichang jumped out of his mind. He smiled disdainfully and said, "Go and ask Deng Guandai a question. He has commanded warships for half his life. You go Ask him, does he understand the navy?"
