Chapter 116 List of Naval Academy

On February 24, the Naval Academy was officially launched.

This day is a zodiac auspicious day selected by Wanyan Haifeng himself. It is really good, and the sun shines brightly in the morning.[.]

A military-civilian armed battle case occurred, and Yinzhen had no intention of inviting local gentry and people to come to watch the ceremony. He just called his own group of trusted subordinates to watch the ceremony. However, he still ignored his influence.

The 25th day is the auction day of Yuanyang Trading Fleet shares. In the past few days, a large number of wealthy businessmen from all over the world gathered in Shanghai County. They were all bored and were particularly concerned about Yinzhen's whereabouts. When they heard that the Naval Academy built by Yinzhen was listed today, they all rushed over with their followers in the fun.

The local gentry in Shanghai has long been particularly concerned about Yinzhen's every move through customs system reform, the special export of cotton cloth and raw silk, the handling of military-civilian armed conflict cases, the suggestion of the Sand Ship Association, and the regulations on the management of marine trade ship branches. When they heard that the Naval Academy was listed, they naturally rushed over to support and watch the fun. In short, they should not miss the opportunity to meet Yinzhen.

In Shanghai, missionaries were very interested in the navy, not to mention the Qing navy they had never seen before. Their enthusiasm was higher than that of the gentry.

The most crowded are the common people, and it is natural to love watching the fun. Moreover, the Navy Inspector now has two teams of patrolling the county town and dock every day. After a long time, they are no longer afraid of the navy. When they heard that the Navy Academy was listed, they all came here with the intention of watching the fun.

Yinzhen did not expect that so many people would come without any invitation or publicity. He quickly sent his own team of personal guards to maintain order to avoid accidents. He didn't care about Western missionaries coming to watch the ceremony. There were many foreign teachers in the navy and there was nothing to keep secret.

Shi Shixiong was wearing a nine-python, five-clawed Qilin uniform. Yinzhen was not wearing an official uniform today, but was wearing a straight navy uniform, which made him keep looking up and down at Yinzhen's military uniform, copper buttons, hat badges, wide cow belts, collar seals, and white gloves.

He had seen the navy uniforms in the county town. He heard that they were copying Western navy uniforms. He had been stationed in Guangzhou for many years. He had seen more Western warships and sailors. Their military uniforms were far less beautiful than those of Yinzhen. Especially the military uniforms on Yinzhen were obviously better-looking than those of those students.

Yinzhen had noticed Shi Shixian's eyes long ago, and he was just secretly amused. He deliberately did not want Shi Shixian to integrate into the navy, so he said there was no inventory and did not give him navy uniforms.

At the time of Si, Yinzhen and Shi Shiqing walked up to the stage one after another.

Then, a rapid whistle sounded at the Naval Academy. With the whistle, the naval cadets rushed from their dormitories to the playground in front of the dormitory. In three minutes, forty neat squares were presented to Yinzhen and Shi Shiqing. The resounding sounds of resounding one after another were heard.

Shi Shixian was an old military officer. When the whistle sounded, he habitually started to count the timing. In less than fifty breaths, the team had already gathered. He couldn't help but nodded secretly. Although he was prepared, more than 4,000 people could gather so quickly and be so neat. He had to admire that he was a new recruit who had only been enlisted for half a year.

After the team leader reported in each layer, Wu Ge ran to the point in a standard military posture to salute Yinzhen and reported to him: "Report to the dean, all the students of the Naval Academy have assembled, and there should be 4,216, and the report has been completed. Please instruct the team leader Wu Ge."

Yinzhen replied with a bow and said loudly: "Rise the military flag."

Wu Ge turned around and shouted loudly: "Rise the military flag!"

As soon as the words fell, a deafening drum sounded immediately. A team of flag guards wearing neat naval uniforms and carrying long muskets raised a rolled flag and walked out of the queue.

The military flag guard attracted the attention of the people as soon as it appeared. The neat queue, solemn expression, and every movement was so strong and uniform. The Guanli people had seen such military postures, including Shi Shipiao, and they were blinded.

When the military flag guards took a step forward, the firm, powerful, and neat steps immediately calmed everyone present. When the military flag was tied to the flagpole, a majestic song immediately sounded in the field: the waves rose, the sea was looking south, the sails were like forests, the dragon was angry, the sword energy was like frost, and the heart was like the vast water. Three hundred years, who could resist each other? The hatred and desire were crazy, the giant cannon was aimed at, and the loyal souls buried the bones of the blue waves, how could you cherish the death to repay the family and country? I endured my sighs, and I was speechless, and my eyes were filled with blood and tears. The dragon entered the sea, the east was red, the east was red, the blue waves were surging, and the waves were surging. I would like to defend my territory and open the border again. China would like to congratulate the world.

With the majestic singing, the military flag fluttered in the eyes of the crowd, and everyone was shocked. It was a bright red flag with a five-clawed golden dragon flying in the clouds and the huge dragon head was particularly hideous.

The five-clawed dragon is a symbol of the emperor and has always been used exclusively for the emperor. Shi Shipiao and other officials were stunned when they saw the dragon flag, but they immediately understood that this should have been specifically approved by Kangxi. It seems that Kangxi was also particularly favored to the navy.

With the last sentence "The Chinese are going to be congratulated by all sides", the military flag rose steadily to the top of the flagpole, looking up at the flying dragon flag, everyone was filled with excitement.

This navy's military song is also well compiled. At that time, the Fujian navy will learn it. As for the flag-raising, let's forget it. If you don't learn it, you will avoid being laughed at by others. Shi Shipiao thought silently.

Except for Yinzhen, everyone has been reading this unique flag-raising ceremony for the first time. The shock in his heart is conceivable. Shi Shipiao glanced at Yinzhen, who was straight in front of him, and thought to himself, how did this 14th Master come up with this flag-raising ceremony? This kind of ceremony can enhance the cohesion of soldiers.

Wu Ge turned around and ran over, saluted and said loudly: "Report to the dean, the Naval Academy's cadets are ready, please review. Captain Wu Ge."

Yinzhen announced loudly, "The review begins!"

One by one, the team began to pass the dock neatly. When each team walked below the dock, they saluted in a straight line. Yinzhen kept looking at each team, but thought to himself that next time he read the army, he must ride a horse, which would be a pain.

Seeing a team of uniform and powerful teams passing by one by one, the gentry and wealthy families were all amazed and fascinated by the sight. You are a layman watching the excitement, and the experts see the tricks. Shi Shipiao, as a general in command, sighed when he saw this scene. It would be fine if he was a uniform one. It was rare that the orders were prohibited. Once these soldiers went to the battlefield, the execution of the orders would definitely not be reduced. When they saw the blood again, they would definitely be a strong soldier. I heard that the Fourteenth Master was good at it. It was really worthy of his reputation when he saw it today.

After the military parade, the title was awarded. Yinzhen loudly read out the list of highest military generals and personally wore the corresponding lieutenant colonels and major seals for the two brigade captains and eight squadron leaders. The lieutenant officers were awarded the title later by Wu Ge and Yande. After the title was awarded, the sword was awarded, each with a naval knife made of imitating the Tang-style horizontal sword.

Shi Shipiao was dressed in an official uniform and was particularly conspicuous among a group of naval uniforms. However, he was not at all uncomfortable. Seeing Yinzhen personally wearing military ranks for each officer and looking at the straight naval officials, he couldn't help but wonder how the Fourteenth Master trained this soldier?
