"Selim, you control the direction of the bow!"
Auden jumped into the boat and pushed Wang Haidi to the bow position with a facial expression.
Although boating is a technical job, it’s not very powerful after all. Wang Haidi Bai takes care of himself. He glanced at Auden and nodded and sat down at the bow.
"Let’s go!" Kirchhoff shouted
Fourteen groups of boats set out together, and the boatmen knelt down half-kneeling, and the paddles in the hands of the boats turned and tried to row in the direction of the lighthouse.
"Major Stenzel, do you think this is appropriate?" The boat gradually walked away. Kirchhoff turned and walked towards the headland of Stenzel. He doubted that "the contradiction between nobles and civilians in the Admiralty has been going on for a long time. The headmaster let nobles and civilians live in the same dormitory and mixed them into different groups. I think this effort is in vain."
"I hope the Erpitz school is not joking …" Stenzel didn’t answer Kiel Hall’s question directly. He sighed and muttered a little.

The wind and waves are very big, and it takes a lot of physical strength for the sailors to go further every row. The violent sea can not be completed by one person. The fine naval students can work together, and two people can paddle and one person can rest and exercise the boat, so they can get to the lighthouse as soon as possible.
The situation in Auden’s group is somewhat different. Once encountering the sea, Haidi usually hopes not to get seasick. At this time, he is lying on the planking, rolling his eyes and vomiting.
Although Auden and Lei Deer are excellent people, their physical abilities are limited. After all, in the early stage, they were gradually driven away by the boat behind them. Even Herman’s little man’s face was rampant. It is clear that Lei Deer and Auden are not willing to give up their first place and have to grit their teeth and try their best to support them.
"Auden, it’s my turn …" Auden sprained his wrist while rowing. Although he pretended to be normal, Haidi found a clue from Auden’s trembling wrist.
"Selim doesn’t need your military idiot’s help." Auden turned his eyelids. Although the pain was unbearable and he was sweating, his unruly attitude didn’t change at all.
Herman’s group finally arrived. Auden and Lei Deer looked at each other, forgetting the previous unhappiness and speeding up the rowing frequency. Unfortunately, Auden was already a spent force, and the piercing pain in his wrist made Auden unable to catch the paddle any longer, so he had to put it down and sit down on the seagoing ship.
His group of ships kept catching up with Wang Haidi, and in a short time, they had already fallen behind. At last, Auden hammered the planking hard, intent on being unwilling.
"Lost …"
Losing power, the vast sea is like a duckweed bumping in the wind and waves, and it is seasick at will. Wang Haidi took off the wooden paddle, but his face was pale but his eyes were full of fortitude.
"Lei Deer depends on both of us …" Wang Haidi half knelt on Auden’s original position and spat on her palm. Although the hero was short of breath, she was still stubborn.
The small ship went on its way, chasing Herman’s group against the strong sea breeze and the noise of the waves. Lei Deer and Wang Haidi were full of lofty sentiments and screamed for their lives to catch up with Auden. Because of the aristocratic gentleman education for many years, although they didn’t make any angry moves, it was not difficult to guess that his heart was stirring from the flames burning in his eyes
The lighthouse is in front of Herman’s group, which finally fell to the penultimate place. Seeing Wang Haidi, they are approaching and afraid of being punished. Herman ignored Auden’s friendship and shouted, "Come on, brothers, don’t let Auden chase you!"
“Arshlh!” Herman was also obviously red-eyed. The German national scold once again grabbed Wang Haidi’s shoulder and cheered. "Silym can’t lose to that guy Herman!"
Maybe it was the emperor’s epiphany or Lei Deer’s rant. Maybe it was Auden’s encouragement to let Wang Haidi unload her baggage. After Wang Haidi crossed it, people broke out seasickness once and for all. This moment disappeared like a hero Bolt possessed by Liu Xiang’s holy light. Seeing Wang Haidi’s bow and paddle flying around, he just doubled the speed of the boat and arrived at the lighthouse barely faster than Herman and others.
Herman knelt down on the boat with tears in his eyes, and the hundred push-ups complained and the ghosts cried and the wolves howled. Wang Haidi, Auden and Lei Deer were exhausted and softened the boat and looked at each other with laughter.
"Does Auden still look down on us civilians?" Lei Deer asked breathlessly by the ship’s rail.
"Of course, noble glory is not blasphemous!" Bernhard von Auden, an aristocrat from Bavaria, looked amazed at Selim and Lei Deer. He slightly raised his head at a 45-degree angle and looked up at the sky. His face was full of arrogance and said, "I am a great Teutonic aristocrat. My family has been carrying Teutonic knight blood in my body for hundreds of years. I have kept the ancient Covenant of loyalty to the king and promised to protect Germany, a rich faith, from blood to blood and from war to never give up!"
The first twenty years Chapter III German West Africa (1)
At dusk, the scenery in Kiel is just bleak, and the sky in the setting sun is dying. The sea is quietly plated with a layer of old yellow fishing boats like old photos. The evening is accompanied by intoxicating scenery. Hard-working fishermen sing songs that have flowed for centuries, steering the stars and sails to return to Hong Kong. The broken waves beside the small pier of the Naval Academy are swaying gently. The hull is covered with seaweed and shellfish. The torpedo training ship Friedrich Carr is greedy for seabirds. From time to time, it has frightened many diving bottoms. In addition to algae industry training, the naval students are quiet and the Baltic Sea is full of youthful students who curse in disgust.
After physical training, Wang Haidi seems to have a turn of luck. Perhaps it is because President Lao Laixie warned Wang Haidi that he was annoyed. The philosophy teacher of Pi Rales-Dinande refused to accept him as a younger brother. Later, in several light weapons trainings, Wang Haidi occasionally scored five out of ten and was close to qualified. Teacher Stenzel personally presided over the queue training, and he also had the experience of persistence. Even Wang Haidi’s seasickness, which was once a nightmare, was alleviated.
Whether it’s a cold-blooded animal Stenzel or a bullish Auden, their attitude towards Wang Haidi is getting better with his progress, so the otaku’s self-confidence begins to swell again and he thinks that crossing is just like that. Although the process is a little tortuous, it’s just an appetizer for crossing passengers before dinner.
Just when the otaku was dreaming, Stenzel came out and said, "The leader wants to talk to you."
Seaweed and shellfish attached to the hull have always been a big worry for ships. It not only affects the speed of the ship, but also accelerates the aging of the hull. It is necessary to clean the hull regularly. Wang Haidi is diving at the bottom to clean up phytoplankton. Hearing Stenzel’s call, he drank several mouthfuls of seawater, grabbed the knife and jumped out of the water to help Friedrich-Carr’s rusty hull take a big breath.
"Looking for me?" Wang Haidi slightly raised his head and took a glance at his face with frost. Stenzel winced and said
"You are Heidi Selim?" A 40-year-old German with a school rank and two clusters looks very literary, gentleman and noble, and China looks very Zhang Jizhong goatee with a shiny forehead. The probe at the side of the middle-aged naval officer training ship faces Wang Haidi.
"Sir, you wanted to see me?" Wang Haidi gave a military salute in the sea and scratched his head. He asked Wang Haidi if he didn’t know the naval officer in front of him. He confirmed that the naval school was not a teacher of Kiel Naval Academy.
"Let’s talk, young man?"
There is a faint smile on the face of the middle-aged officer, and his eyes are sharp, and he doesn’t exude a very strong and heroic aura. Even though Wang Haidi had the sacred aura of the second generation and the second generation of officials in his previous life, he was still in awe of the stick education. Dad was fighting like a tiger, but his unruly little girlfriend trembled at the sight of his girlfriend’s parents, not to mention the middle-aged officer whose aura was exposed in Wang Ba.
In Lei Deer’s blessing for self-help, Wang Haidi climbed the shore pitifully, not far, not near, trembling behind the middle-aged officer
The naval academy seems to be familiar with the naval academy. He led Wang Haidi’s military academy through the tree-lined path and soon came to the pavilion in the depths of the grove.
"I’m Alfred von Erpitz Imperial Naval Academy." The middle-aged officer introduced himself by squatting on the grass and taking out a box of well-packaged cigarettes. He waved it in front of Heidi and said politely, "Do you smoke?"
Wang Haidi was flattered. She took the cigarette and sniffed it before putting it on her nose. This is a high-grade cigarette produced in Berlin, which is far from being comparable to Blunt’s homemade cigarettes.
"I have read your entrance exam answer sheet in Selim, and I heard that you predicted the end of the naval battle before the outbreak of the Qing-Japanese War in the Far East." Erpitz turned his head with an unlit cigarette in his mouth and asked, "Selim, what impact do you think the naval battle in the Yellow Sea will have on the development of the world navy?"
"I was a cadet at the school and joined the navy less than a month ago …" Wang Haidi’s bones were still China people pursuing the golden mean. He avoided the sharp eyes of middle-aged officers and became aware of others.
"Selim’s self-confidence is the most precious quality of us Germans!" Erpitz patted Wang Haidi on the shoulder. "I met Major Stenzel in the principal’s office a few days ago. He spoke highly of bernhard von Oden erich Lei Deer, but he spoke badly of you. But I don’t think so. Although your basic military literacy is quite poor, I believe you are a genius as a naval strategic genius as Wolfgang Wei Gena!"
Wolfgang Wei Gena, who was born in the Baltic coastal port city of Staudin, has now made his mark at the Pulun Naval NCO School. He recently visited the Pulun Naval NCO School, and Erpitz still remembers Wei Gena, who is only 19 years old.
The scene of Wang Haidi’s coming across was so humiliating that he drove the hero to save the United States and was heroically wounded. Later, he was forced by life to choose the dock porter, a career that humiliated the identity of crossing passengers. After Corkier’s naval student, he was even more full of mistakes and became a laughing stock of the navy. Wang Haidi felt that his crossing career was quite a failure and suddenly heard someone praise him, and this person seemed to be quite powerful and background, which greatly satisfied the extreme lack of self-identity of otaku.
"Erpitz School, I believe that with the development of modern science and technology, the face of naval warfare will change dramatically in the future, and the Far East Qing-Japan War is the first change!" Wang Haidi decided to reciprocate with what little goods he had in his stomach.
Actually, Wang Haidi is not prepared for crossing. According to the law of crossing, crossing passengers will meet noble people one day, exert their plagiarism skills, and gain their appreciation. Since then, Wang Haidi has been looking forward to his noble people while recalling the memories of the scattered stars and summing up his hearsay knowledge. He has painstakingly summed up some epoch-making views on the future development direction of the navy.
The biggest advantage of real travelers lies not in their eloquence, physical fitness, adaptability and practical operation level, but in their strategic vision in the distant times. Wang Haidi is not a strong-willed person. He is not only afraid of death, but also afraid of hardship. His physical fitness, execution ability and adaptability are also quite poor. Thanks to the college entrance examination for Keng Dad, his academic performance and strategic vision can be far away, and his contemporaries will not let the otaku live in Kiel, Germany in 1994.
"In the sail era, the naval battle was multi-sided and jumped to help the melee master; After the appearance of armored ships and breech guns, the naval distance has been continuously widened, and various naval powers have begun to pursue larger caliber guns and stronger armored weapons; After the battle of Lisa, no country in the world dared to give up the water collision angle; After the torpedo appeared, the green water navy sent a lot of noise, and the French were once surrounded; Before the outbreak of the Qing-Japanese War in the Far East, the optical rangefinder, rapid-fire gun and three-expander had been issued by Mahan. On the Sea also demonstrated the value of the fast cruiser navy map. The naval construction of all countries in the world is accelerating the rapid maneuverability of the joint fleet in the Yellow Sea naval battle. The rapid-fire gun, the mistakes of the Qing people and a little bit of luck have brought down beiyang fleet, the largest naval battle in age of steam in the 19th century, which has proved that the armored ship has the strength of the earth, the value of the fast cruiser and the rapid-fire gun, and its influence on the world navy will be far-reaching. "
Wang Haidi waved his fist with a strong tone and tried his best to imitate the momentum of Emperor Mao, pointing out the mountains and inspiring the writing dirt in those days.
"Larger caliber main guns, new defensive armor, rapid-fire guns and a large number of auxiliary guns will make an effective command system and high-power steam turbines, which will become the strength standards of warships. New technology and naval personnel will become the key to success or failure in naval battles!"

When Wang Haidi returned to the school building, it was getting late. At the beginning of the Hua Deng, the otaku was cautious and disappeared. Instead, he was complacent.
"Who on earth is looking for you in Selim? What did you say?" Lei Deer broke into Wang Haidi’s bedroom. Wang Haidi asked, "Green algae and shellfish are being cleaned up." Although Auden pretended to be indifferent, it is not difficult to see from his gradual slowing down that Auden is duplicitous.
"A naval school named Erpitz" Wang Haidi looked at the direction of Erpitz’s disappearance and touched his nose angrily. "I talked with him for more than an hour in a fog. He said that I looked like a man he had admired for a long time, like John Abbas Nott Hill was a British Rear Admiral."
"I haven’t heard of either of them …" Lei Deer shrugged and said.
Auden turned his head and disdained to rewrite his face. Lei Deer Haidi was not surprised by Auden’s expression of batting practice. He was discussing how to spend his rare vacation, and the naval academy named Erpitz was soon forgotten by a group of wanton young people in Wang Yang
They don’t know that the naval correction they met today is a history. The famous founder of the high seas fleet, the commander-in-chief of the German navy, provoked the German-British naval competition in a sense and instigated the first world war naval madman. Major General John Abbas Nott Hill, who had been friends with Erpitz for a long time, was the founder of the first British naval minister who feared ships.
The first twenty years, the third chapter German West Africa (2)
The training of Kiel Naval Academy, Germany’s best naval academy, is naturally quite harsh. When naval students are tortured by endless training and going crazy, the holiday dawn finally comes.
The training gap holiday is quite rare and meaningful in the bones. Wang Haidi hid in the dormitory and fell asleep until the third pole of the day.
When Wang Haidi got up, the huge school building had gone upstairs. Germans were paranoid and crazy about beer. Auden Herman went out together early in the morning and vowed to get drunk at Kiel Beer Hall. Lei Deer stole his life for half a day and took up the sea pole to go fishing; Wang Haidi thought about it and decided to go home to the illegal building in Kiel District, which was neither sheltered from wind nor rain.
The otaku borrowed a motorized bicycle, and the streets in Kiel are dazzling. Kiel is one of the best cities in Germany, and many railcars roared by from time to time. It is not uncommon for the world’s first mass-produced motorized bicycle with a price of 2,000 marks.
Wang Haidi slowed down, and the crowd rushed around and looked back and forth.
