In this era, the people of Pujiang have seen more of the world than people across the country, but 99 percent of them can guarantee that they have never seen the scene that Li Shaoyi created today before, so when the plane flew over for almost half an hour, the people's excitement still could not be calmed down.

"It's you after all. I haven't seen people so excited in a long time."

Li Shaoyi came down the gangway of the warship. Commander-in-Chief Chen and senior naval officers were already waiting there. Some had been to the island city last time, and some were meeting him for the first time, but everyone looked at Li Shaoyi in a very friendly way.

The Central Navy has never had much of a presence in Pujiang. Now, because of Li Shaoyi's arrival, people from all over the place have praised it to the sky. No matter what the reason is, everyone is grateful to Li Shaoyi at this moment. Who doesn't want the department they work for to be the focus of the people?

"Some people say our people are extremely dull and can't express any emotions. I disagree. It's just that we haven't created any scenes that would excite them. If someone were to take the lead, our people would be the best and most patriotic."

Li Shaoyi's words made many people fall into deep thought. Some people blindly criticized the small peasant mentality of the Chinese people. They only cared about their own little piece of land and didn't care about national affairs at all. When encountering some conflicts, they only considered their own interests.

But after hearing Li Shaoyi's words, these highly educated people began to reflect. They couldn't just look for the shortcomings of ordinary people. Did we also have shortcomings? Cultivating the self-esteem and patriotism of ordinary people is not a one-day or two-day task.

"What you said is absolutely correct. We should also look for the problem within ourselves. I heard that you named these two warships Dingyuan and Zhenyuan?"

Commander-in-Chief Chen did not continue talking about this heavy topic. After all, this kind of discussion would not produce any results and might even cause some people to quarrel. So he changed the topic to the two light cruisers. At this moment, the 6,000-ton warships in front of them could definitely be said to be giant ships.

"The Commander-in-Chief thinks it's inappropriate?"

Li Shaoyi couldn't understand why Commander-in-Chief Chen said that?

"It's not inappropriate, it's too appropriate. The Navy must remember these two warships. They are the most powerful warships in our history. Although we were defeated by Japan, this is also our former glory. It can also make everyone understand that even though we now have advanced warships, we must intensify training to prevent the tragedy of these two warships."

When Commander-in-Chief Chen said this, he was also heartbroken.

At that time, the Beiyang Navy had already reached the top spot in Asia, but due to insufficient subsequent development, its combat effectiveness declined. On the other hand, after being insulted by the Beiyang Navy, Japan learned from its mistakes and eventually defeated us.

"One of these two warships will stay here, and I'll take the other one back for training. However, I'll have the other one back in about six months. Two light cruisers plus four destroyers will be enough for you to control the Huangpu River."

Li Shaoyi still remembers history. When the Japanese captured Pujiang, the navy and air force wreaked havoc on our territory. Although this navy was not very capable, if it cooperated with submarines and ground ships to attract the attention of the Japanese navy, and the submarines began to look for opportunities to attack, it could also have unexpected results.

After hearing what Li Shaoyi said, the smile on Commander-in-Chief Chen's face became even more pronounced.

With these warships, the warships of various countries in Pujiang are probably not as powerful as ours. Even if they all unite, they cannot match our strength. The Central Navy’s voice in Pujiang will become stronger and stronger, just like the Pujiang Police Department.

The naval officers behind him now looked at Li Shaoyi more favorably. No matter how the Fifth Fleet developed, it was under the management of the Central Navy. Although there was an additional procedure of communicating with Li Shaoyi, everyone automatically ignored it. You had communicated with foreigners countless times before, but did they listen?

Now that we have these warships, foreigners dare not underestimate us. If there is a collision between a foreign merchant ship and our fishermen in the future, I believe that foreigners will never just walk away, and we will not be scolded by the people of Pujiang.

That evening, the Central Navy held a grand banquet at the External Liaison Office of the Central Navy Pujiang Base to welcome the Fifth Fleet to Pujiang.

Commander-in-Chief Chen became the star of the day, which was why Li Shaoyi deliberately hid himself. We are already prominent enough, so we have to make the landlord happy when we come here, so that we can live comfortably.

When the reporters heard that the Fifth Fleet wasn't just visiting but was going to be stationed here permanently, the Chinese reporters jumped for joy. However, some foreign reporters weren't so happy. Although they had smiles on their faces, they looked stiff...

"Ladies and gentlemen, we welcome General Li Shaoyi, Deputy Chief of the Navy General Staff, and his fiancée, Miss Yu Qiuer, to lead us in the next dance."

After the song was finished, the host immediately walked onto the stage.

Li Shaoyi took Miss Yu's hand and slowly walked onto the stage from the side. Everyone remembered Li Shaoyi even more at this time. A successful career is only one aspect of life. Having such a beautiful wife may be another aspect. You have all the good things.

The daughter of the shipping chairman is very famous in Pujiang. We had only heard of this rumor before. Today, she made a public appearance in such an occasion. Chairman Yu was smoking a pipe beside her and looking at his son-in-law with satisfaction. The matter was basically settled. Those young masters who were jumping around can take a break for a while.

"A hero deserves a beauty, Brother Yu, congratulations!"

"Happy together."

"Boss Yu is so lucky to have a son-in-law like Commander Li!"

"thanks, thanks."

"Boss Yu, if you want to have a wedding banquet someday, please send me an invitation as early as possible. It's time to dig out your twenty-year-old daughter's red wine."

"You must come early on that day. Just like in the past, you and I will drink three bowls in a row."

Old Master Yu was so happy at the moment when he saw people coming from all over to congratulate him. His son-in-law was not well-known in the early years, but because he helped him avenge his son, he married his second daughter to Li Shaoyi.

I hadn't expected what was happening today. Perhaps in a few years, I would have achieved what I have now. I didn't expect Li Shaoyi to be so fast. I have achieved what I have today...
