Red Alert 1895

Chapter 667: Bombarding Etajima (Part 2)

Taiwan's navy hit the archives of Japan's Etajima Naval Academy with one shot, causing immeasurable losses to the inheritance of Japan's naval system. ∑, in the future, if they want to accumulate so much knowledge and experience again, they will not be able to complete it without decades. In particular, there are many research archives conducted by naval experts. That and this are the core of the basic education of the Japanese Navy, and they are important teaching and research materials for training students, but now they are all destroyed by such a cannonball.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Taiwan's Sword-class battleships are still pouring shells in the Qing Dynasty. With so many shells, 300 shells were fired in just half an hour. On average, almost every Japanese naval cadet is also assigned Arrived a hair. The power of these artillery has already leveled the entire Naval Academy, and there is no prominent place on it. The teaching facilities of various teaching buildings, the simulation training place, and various archives and materials on the body were all wiped out and turned into a pile of ashes.

"Okay, let's go!" Chen Fa said.

Chen Fa ordered the fleet to return, because the mission had been completed this time, so they had to leave as soon as possible, otherwise they might be besieged by Japan desperately. So under Chen Fa's order, those sword-class battleships immediately accelerated the speed of the battleships to the fastest, and then walked back very quickly, obviously they would not stay at all to continue fighting.

However, for the Japanese, their loss was huge.

"Your Majesty, it's not good, it's not good!"

"What's going on?" Emperor Meiji asked.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, just received the news that Etajima County sent the news that some Chinese navies disguised as our battleships. Then they bombarded our Etajima Naval Academy. Now Etajima Naval Academy It has been razed to the ground. None of the teachers and students in the school survived. Now we have not found any survivors. Although we have not found too many corpses, I am afraid that under such fierce naval guns, they all... also all I am loyal to His Majesty the Emperor."

Under such heavy artillery fire. And it was a high-explosive bomb, so I am afraid that the corpses were also blown into dregs, and there were not many complete corpses to be found. So even if no corpses were seen, most of them were annihilated, and there would be no survivors.

After Emperor Meiji heard this, he almost sat down. He didn't expect such a thing to happen. You must know that the Japanese battleships have sunk. The officers and soldiers of the battleships are all the objects of future inspection and appointment, so they are all the essence. After the battleship was wiped out this time, the loss to Japan was very huge. But now he actually heard that the students in the naval academy were wiped out. This made him feel even more terrifying. Because the students in these naval corps schools are the essence of the future navy, they are an important reserve of human resources for them to rebuild the navy, but now they are actually destroyed by Wang Guorui's battleship, and almost none of them are left. The loss felt terrible.

"Your Majesty, our navy has suffered a terrible loss! Our navy's various archives, various teaching and research materials, and many kinds of knowledge wealth accumulated over the years. These are all accumulated by us for decades. There are a lot of information on our seniors in the navy, and the honors of many of our admirals are also included. And a lot of information has been accumulated since the Meiji Restoration of His Majesty the Emperor. But this time it was given by the Chinese people Ruined, ruined!"

The military attache who was born in the navy looked like he was crying, and he was obviously very sad. No one understands the value of these things better than them, the value of those students. Those students can be said to be the last hope of the Japanese Navy, and it can be said that they are the last hope of the reconstruction of the Japanese Navy. But now Taiwan is ruined just like that, all at once. The original Japanese battleship may have sunk. But they only need to rebuild or buy again, as long as they spend money. In a sense, the problems in this world that can be solved with money are actually not big problems. For a country, money may not be the biggest problem. The biggest problem for a country is not money, but those problems that cannot be solved with money.

Those Japanese navy generals were not so sad even if their battleships were sunk. Because the sinking of the battleship is only the loss of a group of officers, but the Japanese talent training system has not been broken, the Japanese naval training system has not suffered much damage, and there are no problems with various materials and various teaching and research systems. In less than two years, the lost officers can be retrained. The missing officers on the battleship can be gradually transferred from other places, and if they lack some knowledge, they can learn from the Naval Academy. There are enough materials and various files for learning, which means that a school has a rich accumulation.

But now Taiwan has been destroyed, not only the officers of their various battleships have been destroyed, but hundreds of their future naval students have also been wiped out. This is not the most frightening thing, the most frightening thing is that Taiwan's battleships have destroyed the achievements they have spent decades accumulating. Those excellent naval teachers, they are all seeds that can cultivate generations of naval officers. Those instructors are the seeds of each navy, and as long as they exist, they can quickly cultivate another batch of navy. As for battleships, as long as everyone tightens their belts and persists for a few years, as long as they have money, there will always be ones.

But many things in this world cannot be solved by money, such as this kind of education inheritance. Maybe a rich boss can install a lot of equipment in a school, using the most advanced equipment, and all kinds of teaching equipment and teaching buildings are very good. But can such an investment make a good school? the answer is negative! Just like some schools in later generations, some teaching facilities have not been updated in seven or eight years, and the teaching buildings are all old houses decades ago, but he firmly holds the position of a first-class prestigious school. Those new schools with well-equipped teaching buildings are not their opponents at all.

This talent inheritance cannot be directly solved overnight by spending money. It is impossible to establish an education inheritance system without the accumulation of at least decades, or even hundreds of years of accumulation. Many famous schools show off how many years of history they have. This also shows that their heritage has been passed down from generation to generation, and it cannot be obtained by relying on wealth alone.

"The navy is over!" Many Japanese navy generals almost fainted, but this completely ruined their hopes.

Emperor Meiji said fiercely: "Everyone, you don't have to worry, I will give you a guarantee. You have confidence. We have spent decades building our own navy in the past. Although our loss this time is huge, can't we be able to do it again? Can we start all over again? Everything can start all over again, we spent decades in the past, then we spend decades again, so what can we do? As long as we can persist, we will be able to move mountains and get this thing right again .Didn’t we just spend decades? You are spending decades to make up for these achievements again. What’s more, we did this from scratch back then. I’m not starting from scratch now. The starting conditions are much better. Can’t everyone show the spirit of hard work and pioneering? I believe that with the concerted efforts of all dear friends, we can restore the strength of this navy and restore the strength of our navy in less than ten years. Don’t you have confidence in the talent system?”

"Long live His Majesty the Emperor, our navy will definitely surround His Majesty the Emperor, and we will do our best to rebuild the navy. In the past few decades, we have done it from scratch. Are our conditions worse now than in the past? So, we Fighting with them, we can build a strong navy again within ten years at most." Someone said immediately, patting his chest.

Those admirals immediately pledged to continue the hard work for ten years ~www.readwn.com~ and then rebuild the navy again.

But Ito Hirobumi next to him was thinking: "Can we still have ten years?"

Back then, Japan was able to build a navy from scratch, that was based on the fact that China underestimated them. China didn't pay attention to them at all back then, so they had the opportunity to build a navy from scratch. If the Manchu Qing had intervened, their navy might have been aborted. As for the current Wang Guorui, he is not Man Qing, and he is very vigilant against Japan, and there will be no fish that slip through the net. Therefore, in this world of great controversy, once the time is delayed for ten years, I am afraid that it will always be behind forever. In this era of fierce competition, one step behind means every step behind. Japan is ten years behind, but it does not have the same development as Taiwan Wang Guorui. How can he continue to keep up? Do they have Wang Guorui's method of cheating? Once they fall behind, they will not be able to keep up. Their opponent, Wang Guorui, could cheat, but they couldn't. How would they play?

So, Japan is a decade behind, can they catch up again? Moreover, will Wang Guorui allow the Japanese navy to redevelop instead of making small moves in secret? Once Wang Guorui made a small move in secret, the delay in Japan would not be ten years, or even twenty or thirty years. (to be continued.) u
