"Yes, the sea has no end, but the sea is connected to the vast land, and many places unknown to us." Xu Yunyuan continued:

"The General once said that the future of the Chinese nation is not on land, but on the ocean. At a certain period in the future, whoever controls the ocean will be beaten to the world. The land is boundless and the sea is endless."

Yu Dapeng suddenly became excited. He felt hot all over and asked anxiously: "Did General Chen really say that?"

"Of course, the general was deeply saddened to see a talent like General Yu being buried and said: If I had a navy general like General Yu, why not worry about not being able to show his power on the sea and let my China be the best in all directions." Xu Yunyuan continued to inspire:

"General Yu, if you join us, the General promises you that within three years, you will have a brand new ocean fleet, with a scale that is incomparable to the Beiyang Navy back then. General, can you imagine that in a few years, you will sail on the offshore ocean outside the East China Sea?"

"Hundreds of armored ships?" Yu Dapeng widened his eyes and squeezed out a few people from his throat with difficulty, as if he was waking up from a dream, "How is this possible?"

"Why is it impossible?" Xu Yunyuan said:

"This is called sea control. In recent years, why can overseas countries such as Britain, France, the United States, Germany and Japan be able to guide the country, show their power, and open ports and establish concessions in the Qing Dynasty. That is, they have a strong navy and have ocean-going fleets to expedition. Therefore, we also need to develop navy and build ships by ourselves. General Yu, are you willing to listen to the general's future plans for the navy?"

As a senior navy general, Yu Dapeng learned the importance of the sea to the country and the people, and his desire to conquer the sea are something that people who have lived on land for many years cannot understand.

At this time, he could no longer resist this temptation. "Snow Fox, Mr. Yu is willing to hear it clearly!" A look of excitement appeared on his face.

"The future of the navy will be called the navy. He will be established as a new branch of military service and will no longer be attached to the army system. I believe that General Yu is easy to understand these, because foreigners have done this long ago. Didn't the Qing Dynasty also establish a Navy headquarters recently?"

"Not only has a powerful fleet, but also an excellent Marine Corps. Oh, this general has been implemented on the Blood Wolf and the Wild Wolf, which is very effective. In other words, in addition to fighting at sea, the navy will also independently undertake land or island landing operations. This marine corps is established for this. In the future, our powerful navy can also go to the other end of the sea to expand territory and promote our country's power, just like Zheng He led the fleet to the West when he was so brilliant."

"General Yu, do you know how large the East China Sea Fleet you are about to command will be in the future?" Xu Yunyuan quietly lured Yu Dapeng into a trap.

Yu Dapeng's excited look began to be convinced.

"General Yu, let's not talk about the ships. At that time, you can have sailors and Marines, the size of the East China Sea Fleet will not be less than 100,000 people." Xu Yunyuan strengthened her tone.

"How is this possible?" Yu Dapeng and Tang Hua exclaimed almost at the same time, both with incredible expressions.

"Of course, this is a long-term plan!" Xu Yunyuan said:

"In three years, you will see a brand new East China Sea fleet, and within ten years, the General's plan will be realized."
