Chapter 45

Yang Xin started a big move, that is the overseas student plan.

From nearly 8000 young children, Yang Xin selected [-] who were older, with good physical fitness and good brains, and divided them into three parts.Part of them were sent to study in Millikin through the relationship of Situ Meitang, another part was sent to study in Britain through the relationship of John Elliot, and the last part was sent to study in Germany through the relationship of Prince Heinrich.

These [-] students are not fully blooming and learning all majors in an all-round way, but specializing in maritime affairs.In Yang Xin's plan, these [-] students will enter the Naval Academy to study in an all-round way. First, they will study systematically in the Naval Academy for two years, and then they will practice on a warship for two years.

Yang Xin assigned these students to Britain, Germany, and Millikin in order to learn the strategies and tactics of the three countries, and then learn from each other's strengths to find a strategy that suits him.

Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to survive a hundred battles.

For this reason, Yang Xin paid a huge amount of money. Not only did he have to pay to study at the Naval Academy, but he also had to pay to intern on a warship. Otherwise, they would not let you board the ship at all.

"Going to the West, keep in mind China's self-improvement strategy, shoulder the future of the country, and seek to use the science of foreigners for my own use, for the country and the people. Going thousands of miles away, leaving the country of your parents, youth is not ruined, cherish it!"

"Follow the Commander's order!"

"Learn skills from barbarians to strengthen yourself!"

Eight thousand students shouted in unison.

Yang Xin drank a bowl of blood wine with these eight thousand students, and then secretly sent them to a ship going overseas.

The students who are going to study in Millikin are led by Sun Wen. Sun Wen is a big brother of the Hongmen and has a close relationship with Situ Meitang. Sun Wen takes the students to Millikin. Not only can they take good care of these students, but they can also investigate Sales of cigarettes, powder and arms, etc.;

The students going to Britain were led by Thirteenth Aunt and Huang Feihong. After all, Thirteenth Aunt returned from Britain and had a certain understanding of Britain's national conditions, so she wouldn't be blinded by it.

The students who went to Germany were led by the Liang Kuan team. As a disciple of Yang Xin, Liang Kuan directly represented Yang Xin. After Liang Kuan arrived in Germany, he received a grand reception. Kaiser Wilhelm II even hosted a dinner to welcome Liang Kuan. Wait for someone to arrive.After all, the weapons designed by Yang Xin doubled the combat power of the German army several times. Liang Kuan, or Yang Xin, deserves the respect of Germany from top to bottom.

Before Liang Broadband students went to Germany, Yang Xin had already sent a telegram to Prince Heinrich. Prince Heinrich naturally reported to Kaiser Wilhelm II.

Liang Kuan went to Germany this time with a secret mission. After the dinner hosted by Kaiser Wilhelm II, Liang Kuan appeared in Kaiser Wilhelm II's office. on the desk.

"What genius design did our Eastern ally send us?" Kaiser Wilhelm II laughed.

As soon as Kaiser Wilhelm II finished speaking, good-natured laughter came from the entire office. Yang Xin's design was of great help to them, especially the design of the tank.

Although limited by the current technology, the tank has various minor problems and its speed is extremely slow, but its offensive ability is really strong. With the assistance of long-range artillery and the cooperation of infantry, it is definitely a nightmare for the enemy.

Kaiser Wilhelm II looked at the drawings carefully, frowning, and after looking at them for a while, he handed the drawings directly to Admiral Prince Heinrich. Although Prince Heinrich was an admiral, such drawings It is best to leave it to someone in the professional field.After a while, the blueprint was passed to the hands of professionals, which caused an uproar and quarrel among the professionals.

"What kind of battleship is this?" Kaiser Wilhelm II asked directly.

"This is a Dreadnought-class battleship. According to my master, this kind of battleship adopts a main gun with uniform ballistic performance, which not only improves the firepower of the battleship, but also the command personnel on the ship can uniformly command all the main guns to aim at the same target. Shoot, use the covering firepower projection range to improve the hit rate of the main gun." Liang Kuan explained.

"My master suggested that the whole ship should be equipped with ten twelve-inch caliber guns. Of course, my master's drawing is not very accurate, and the specific details need to be perfected by your professionals." After thinking for a while, Liang Kuan continued. .

"Earl Yang Xin believes in his design so much?" Earl William asked curiously.

"Of course, my master is very confident, and he has never made a mistake in his judgment about the future." Liang Kuan replied very confidently.

Kaiser Wilhelm II, Prince Heinrich, Moltke the Great, Moltke the Little and others became silent. Liang Kuan came this time not only with the blueprints of the dreadnought, but also with a large number of orders.

There are eight Dreadnought-class battleships, six armored cruisers, six battlecruisers, 24 light cruisers, 36 torpedo ships, and [-] U-shaped submarines powered by diesel engines.

"Damn it, where did this Eastern ally know that we are developing a submarine powered by diesel engines?" Kaiser Wilhelm II was also puzzled. The submarine plan should be top secret. How does Yang Xin know? Is it a coincidence?Or maybe Yang Xin also does research on submarines?

Kaiser Wilhelm II obviously didn't plan to delve into this issue, because everyone present was stunned by Yang Xin's luxurious order. Except for the Dreadnought-class battleship, which was designed by Yang Xin's own drawings, the rest of the warships had to be selected by Germany. Incoming battleship.And it will be delivered within two years.

In the past two years, Deutschland's shipyard doesn't have to do anything, just close its doors and focus on Yang Xin's work.

"Our eastern earl is so courageous?" William II couldn't help talking to himself.

"Time doesn't wait. Our ambitious neighbor to the east is about to make a move. We must have a battle with him, and it's a battle related to the fate of the country!" Liang Kuan said firmly.

As Liang Kuan said, in the official history, Japan waged a war against the Qing Empire, and won. Britain and Millikin couldn't hold their heads up.And all of this is because of the victory in the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-], the Japanese nation won the national fortune by betting and won huge indemnities, and then used the huge indemnities to continue to develop, become bigger and stronger, and create greater glories.

When Yang Xin was studying the history of the Wa Kingdom, he also felt that there was a force driving everything in the dark. The Wa Kingdom, which had been silent for more than three thousand years, suddenly rose like a volcanic eruption in modern times, especially the talent is like a blowout. There are three masters of restoration: Takamori Saigo, Toshimichi Okubo, and Takayoshi Kido. This year, Hirobumi Ito, Aritomo Yamagata, Mutsu Munemitsu and others have made great contributions to the development of Wa country.

Therefore, with a decisive attitude, Yang Xin went all out to buy warships from Germany.Why not buy from Britannia?Because the Dreadnought-class battleship is the main force in future naval battles, the trump card of the trump card, Yang Xin brought out the design of the Dreadnought-class battleship ten years in advance, and he is also trying to do everything possible to enhance the strength of Germany.

After all, the improvement of the strength of Germany can make the wars between the western and western powers more intense, and can better consume the national power of the western and western powers.

"We can't take this batch of orders."
