Rebirth of South America as King

Chapter 408: Under the Navy

He Linshu, Yang Jiannian, Chen Binshi, and Wang Jin were all descended from Nanyang Chinese.

Among them, Chen Binshi ’s father, Chen Jinzhong and grandfather Chen Dusheng, were well-known Chinese wealthy merchants in the early days of Nanyang Xingjiapo. In 1873, Chen Jinzhong emigrated to Han country at the invitation of Li Mingyuan, and served as the vice minister of the Ministry of Commerce in Han country.

In 1880, affected by the local administrative rectification storm in China, Chen Jinzhong, together with officials from hundreds of Nanyang Chinese businessmen, including Zhang Fanglin, volunteered to donate more than 50% of the property to the central government to show their support for the country's internal rectification actions. .

In 1881, Chen Jinzhong's second son donated 700,000 silver in his own name to build several large hospitals in Songjiang and Xinjing, and was immediately praised and promoted by the central government.

Since 1880, the Chen family has successively donated a total of about 4 million silvers. The descendants of members of the Chen family have also withdrawn from ocean shipping, rice, cloth sales and other fields, and have turned to the military and political fields.

After ten years of subtle development, the label of the Singaporean richest man who was affixed to the Chen family in the early years no longer exists, and the Chen family was mentioned again. The first impression of ordinary people was from the Long Gongxun family, and their father and son were political and military. Industry elite, pillars.

The achievements and glory of the Chen family today depend on Chen Jinzhong's own control and control. However, near the new year of 1889, Chen Jinzhong, who was just sixty years old, was in a state of physical deterioration every day, and he felt that his time was running out. Chen Jinzhongyu In July 1888, he resigned from the post of chief of the Ministry of Commerce and devoted himself to treating illness at home.

"It's New Year soon, when will Ding'an, Ziyi and Xiufen return?"

Chen Jinzhong sat on the chair with the help of his servant, and after a few breaths he asked.

"Four younger brothers, six younger sisters, and seven younger sisters took pictures of the telegram, saying that they were the same as the day after tomorrow, and they were able to arrive at Changan City about a week later."

Chen Binshi stood behind his father, whispering gently while holding Chen Jinzhong's back gently.

"One week passed in the blink of an eye. Dr. Zhou said after the diagnosis yesterday that my body bones will rest and can support me for two or three years."

Sitting on a lounger for a while, the expression on Chen Jinzhong's face gradually returned to normal, and his tone of speech was much smoother than before.

"The three generations of the Chen family have four sons and three daughters. Your eldest brother, three brothers, and four sisters, two died in their childhood, one died of severe illness in Nanyang, Singapore, leaving you with four brothers and sisters. As a woman, she has been married to an outsider and ca n’t help much at home. Your fourth brother, Ding An, grew up in your hometown and was open-minded. She always wanted to be a teacher in the school. She has no intention of career development. Of the three descendants of the Chen family, only you have had the experience of studying abroad and served in the navy. Therefore, after a hundred years as a father, the burden of developing the Chen family will fall on your shoulders. "

Chen Jinzhong pressed his right hand on his son and urged: "Being honest,

You are the second son of the Chen family and the heir to Viscount Yifeng. You must fight for opportunities in the navy. You must not let the glory of Viscount Yifeng, which you have exhausted for half your life, be lost in your hands! "

"Baby remembers his father's teachings, and dare not have the slightest slack!"

Chen Bin really hugged his emotional father and responded seriously.

"Your temper has always been stable. It is not as alert as Lin Shu, Jian Nian, and the three posteriors. So to serve in the navy, if you want to go further, you must put down the shelves of Honourable children and pay more attention to understanding the officers and men on the ship. You can take the initiative to communicate with them and help them solve problems in the army and in life. In this way, even if you do not perform well in combat command capabilities, you can achieve good results with the support and faith of your subordinates. "

"It is the duty of the Navy's Department of Publicity and Propaganda to understand the family situation of the grass-roots officers and soldiers of the ship. As a light cruiser captain, will he be involved in the private affairs of the officers and soldiers at the bottom?

Chen Binshi couldn't bear to refute his father's teachings, but still revealed a puzzled question in his mind.

"Be honest, you should really learn from the descendants of Xu Zhixuan and Yang Guangrong who studied abroad. At the beginning of the establishment of the local navy, most generals and soldiers at all levels came from middle and lower-level families, and among Western powers, naval officers were noble children. As a leader, officers and ordinary naval soldiers are completely different and have no contact with each other. "

Chen Jinzhong sighed and taught patiently: "The Navy and the Army were both created by His Majesty. The two armies were established for more than 20 years. His Majesty attends the Military Academy and the Army Officer School every year to participate in the graduation ceremony of military students. Graduates hand-issued sabre and graduation certificate.

Regarding the origin and the busyness of affairs, how can your captain of a light cruiser compare?

When His Majesty is in trouble, he often takes the time to inspect and sympathize with the Army and Navy. Among the more than 100,000 Army and Navy officers and soldiers, not only are the officers at or above the rank, but also His Majesty are familiar, even many excellent school-level officers can also tell Their name, background.

The members of the German officer ’s teaching corps all say that the local army and navy are up and down, training is interesting, and morale is high. In fact, the local army and navy can win today. In addition to the timely updating of weapons and equipment and the adequate surface support, the most important factors are the most important. It is His Majesty's attention to the Army and Navy as always. Without His Majesty's love for soldiers and the care of the middle and lower levels, even with the best equipment, he would not be able to play today's combat effectiveness. "

"The child is dull, and only after he heard what his father said today did he wake up."

Chen Binshi recalled the scenes of Li Mingyuan's inspections of the army and schools. In the naval bases and naval officer schools, he clearly distinguished many grass-roots officers and shouted their names.

"Although I do not serve in the army as a father, my experience in the army and politics is the same. To be a commander and handsome, you do not need to have superb command ability, but you must have united middle and lower ranks, according to each The characteristics of the subordinates and the ability to reasonably arrange different positions. "

Chen Jinzhong wanted to pass on his political and human experience to his son in the last two years of his life, so many topics that were taboo in the past were also euphemistically addressed to his son.

"Your Majesty is in the heyday of Spring and Autumn. According to His Majesty's current physical condition, he can continue to rule for a minimum of 30 years. Within 30 years, even if the constitutional monarchy is implemented, with His Majesty's prestige, military and political affairs will still be decided by his Majesty. ,

In terms of naval affairs, Chen Sen and Li Han are more modest in their qualifications than Army generals such as Luo Linshan, Zhao Yongzeng, Wang Dashan, and Wang Xiaoshan. The reason why His Majesty selected two people for the two officers of the Navy is because of senior The generals are scarce, and only candidates who meet the selection criteria of the Secretary of the Navy and the Chief of Staff are Chen Sen and Li Han.

Based on more than thirty years of experience as a father in business and politics, although Chen Sen and Li Han are two naval officers, their ultimate decision-making power is still in the hands of His Majesty. "

Chen Jinzhong took the ginseng tea handed over by his son, and after taking a sip ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ continued: "And under Chen Sen and Li Han, the former naval councilor, the current commander of the Atlantic fleet, Major General Hou Taiyuan and the former navy The commander of the Marine Corps now trusts that Major General Feng Guoan of the Pacific Fleet is a transitional character. After three or five years, younger officers with experience of going abroad to grow up will grow up. The candidates for the two naval officers and the two fleet commanders will all study abroad. Screening of officers.

At present, the phenomenon of partial officer faults in the local navy has a certain negative impact on the development of the navy's comprehensive combat capabilities, but for your generation of naval officers in the ocean, it is a rare upper opportunity. In the joint naval military exercises and in the next few years of service, he has demonstrated his ability to be promoted to the rank of Rear Admiral, and even to become the commander of the two fleets and the two naval officers. There is no hope! "

Speaking of the core, Chen Jinzhong carefully stared at his son, and once again urged: "The opportunity for joint military exercises and campaign candidates for the main battleship can largely be said to determine your development in the Navy for decades to come. The ultimate future!

Running for the captain of the battleship and the joint military exercise of the Army and Navy are equally important. You must not miss a precious opportunity because of negligence! "

"Father's teachings are kept in mind, and the child must work hard to not let his father down!" ...
