It turned out that since Ouyang Yanqing came to Beizhu Island, he had fully investigated and utilized the current metal smelting equipment in Beizhu Island during the day, and then combined his experience at night, he spent several days and nights to draw the latest method of smelting industrial aluminum into drawings. Now Tang Jian has returned, and he has also eliminated his inner concerns, so he happily handed over all his achievements this month to Tang Jian.

Tang Jian looked at the drawings in his hand happily, as if he had seen his plane soaring above the Chinese sky in the future.

Tang Jian smiled and said, "Mr. Ouyang, how long will it take to put into mass production?"

Ouyang Yanqing raised three fingers and smiled and said, "Four months!"

"Four months?" Tang Jian frowned inadvertently.

"What? Commander thinks it's too long! Commander, you have to know that some facilities in Beizhu Island cannot be put into use immediately now. Some supercharged equipment needs to be redeveloped, otherwise it will not be able to meet the air pressure of the new furnace at all. Four months is already fast enough!" Ouyang Yanqing did not expect that Tang Jian would think that four months would be short, but he could only barely get the time to make the equipment overnight. To be honest, it may take longer.

Tang Jian smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ouyang, I know that four months are very hasty for you, and I also know that it's very fast to develop the latest aluminum engine in four months."

When Ouyang Yanqing saw Tang Jian say this, his anger gradually faded and said, "Don't worry, commander, four months, just four months, I promise to let the adults see the latest industrial aluminum that meets the engine requirements!"

Tang Jianyu said to Ouyang Yanqing earnestly: "Then please Mr. Ouyang. I will hold a banquet tonight to make up for the failure to greet the gentleman in person last time. By the way, I will introduce to you the senior officers in the Beiyang Navy."

Ouyang Yanqing was not very interested in this kind of social dinner. What he wanted most now was to develop qualified aluminum as quickly as possible. But since Tang Jian personally invited him, he couldn't help but distort Tang Jian's kindness, so he nodded politely.

In fact, Tang Jian did not think that Ouyang Yanqing's four months was too long. He understood that it took four months to achieve mass production of industrial aluminum.

But Tang Jian’s strategic purpose is to hope that the aircraft can come in handy when fighting against Russia. By then, Tang Jian’s confidence in reclaiming the Northeast will be from 70% to 90%. Who doesn’t want to win a higher chance? Tang Jian also hopes that the aircraft can be put into the battlefield as soon as possible to minimize casualties. After all, Russia’s tens of thousands of troops are not made of paper. Although Tang Jian is very confident in reclaiming the Northeast, it will also cost a huge price.

Since things went against their wishes, Tang Jian could not force himself, and could only rely on his own navy to try his best to take back the Northeast.

During the Spring Festival in 1901, Tang Jian spent the Spring Festival with all the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Navy on Liugong Island. After the Spring Festival, the Beiyang Navy devoted himself to intense maritime training to prepare for the next recovery of the Northeast.

At the same time, after the New Year's Eve, Yuan Shikai also mobilized 80,000 Beiyang New Army from Shanxi, Shandong and Zhili to assemble at Shanhaiguan. After the Spring Festival in the northeast, he and Tang Jian's troops divided into two routes and entered the northeast.

Everything was going slowly according to Tang Jian's plan. Soon winter went and spring came, and Vladivostok Port also began to thaw. Russia seemed to be aware of Tang Jian's military actions, and a large number of troops headed to Lushun, preparing to defend Lushun.

At the end of February 1902, Tang Jian held a military parade on Liugong Island. After Tang Jian's continuous expansion of troops, the Beiyang Navy was added to the Shanghai Army's logistics and newly incorporated into the Marine Corps. The entire Beiyang Navy had nearly 20,000 people.

In addition to 10,000 of them heading to Taiwan's Keelung Naval Base and Hainan Haikou Bay Naval Base in batches, there were a total of 10,000 Beiyang Navy standing on the campus of Liugong Island.

After several months of rigorous training, the newly recruited recruits have become veterans with great military posture. Except for not being baptized by war, these recruits have almost the same military qualities as those of veterans.

In the past few months, in addition to replacing all the Beiyang Navy uniforms (all of them were replaced with white navy uniforms, which were also modified by Tang Jian's "plagiarism" of the navy uniforms in his previous life).

Based on the training methods of later army, Zhu Lianjie, in addition to the conventional scheduled naval gun shooting and ship loss training, the daily auxiliary training methods were changed to push-ups, sit-ups, single and double bars and weight-bearing cross-country. Officers and soldiers at all levels were very curious about this training method, and later they thought the training effect was amazing, and they gradually fell in love with this special training method.

At this time, solemn music sounded on the school field, and the majestic naval military songs sounded on the school field. This military song was originally a military song of Li Hongzhang's Beiyang Army. Yan Fu did not change the lyrics in it, but only replaced the accompaniment with more majestic music.

On the school ground, thousands of people sang together, magnifying the mountains and rivers, and the singing was powerful, with ups and downs and ups and downs, rising and falling.

Chinese men, Chinese men, must support the sky with one hand.

Sleeping in a lion for thousands of years, sleeping in a lion for thousands of years, one man raises his arms and thousands of men.

Yangtze River, east of Asia,

Eu Kunlun, the Great Wall,

The country of Tianfu, use multi-purpose macros,

The gods of the Yellow Emperor.

Wind, tiger, clouds, dragons, all nations come together,

I am the pride of heaven.

Chinese men, Chinese men, support the sky with one hand

Sleeping in a lion for thousands of years, sleeping in a lion for thousands of years, one man raises his arms and thousands of men.

I have a sword and generously follow the army.

Hit the oars and the wind is great,

The decisive battlefield, the spirit of the long rainbow,

How many strange husbands have been in ancient and modern times.

Broken yellow dust, Yanran took the merits,

The passionate blood is still red.

After the song, thousands of soldiers from Beiyang shouted in unison: "Beiyang! Beiyang!"

Seeing that the morale of the Beiyang soldiers on the school ground was high and their momentum was like rainbow, Tang Jian signaled everyone to calm down and said aloud: "Do you want your people to be bullied by foreign enemies?"

"No hope! No hope!" shouted thousands of people.

"Do you want your country to be occupied by other places?" Tang Jian asked again.

"No, no hope!"

"Now, the Russians are entrenched in the northeast, and the people of the three northeastern provinces are in dire straits. As soldiers of this country, we have the responsibility and obligation to rescue our compatriots. Do you have the confidence to work with me to drive the Russians in the northeast out of our territory and restore our borders to China!"

"Driving away the Russians, we will restore our borders to China! Drive away the Russians, we will restore our borders to China!" The Beiyang officers and soldiers were excited and shouted.

"Okay, raise troops for a thousand days, and use them for a moment! I announce that in three days, the entire army will set sail, and the troops will head north, point the sword at Tsarist Russia, and recover the Northeast!" Tang Jian carried a solemn military salute and shouted.

"Win the army to go north and recover the Northeast!" Ten thousand Beiyang officers and soldiers also used their best to roar out the flames in their hearts.
Chapter completed!
