Chapter 16 How Steel Is Tempered

() Shortly after the Americans joined the war, a major event occurred in the world. After Russia experienced the February Revolution, the October Revolution broke out in November 1917. The reason why it was called the October Revolution was not called the November Revolution.

The reason for the revolution is that November 7th in the Gregorian calendar happens to be October 25th in the Russian calendar.

In this revolution, the Bolshevik Party, led by Lenin and Trotsky, used an armed uprising to completely overthrow the Russian Provisional Government composed of the bourgeoisie, and established the Soviet regime, becoming the world's first

Socialist state and the second proletarian power, the first proletarian power was established by the Paris Commune.

However, Liu Fu, who has read the book "How Steel Was Tempered", knows that the Russian revolution has not yet completely won. The Russian Civil War will last at least several years, and the European and American powers hate this new socialist regime more than they hate Germany.

, because this is no longer a fight for overseas colonies and some interests, but an ideological confrontation. If the First World War had not ended, these powers would definitely have directly sent troops to interfere in Russia's internal affairs.

This socialist revolution not only brought new life to Russia, but also pointed out a path for many poorer and backward countries in the world, which is to establish a socialist country. Among these countries and nations that were inspired and influenced,

Including China, which is in the midst of a warlord war.

Before that, Chinese intellectuals and advanced people, who had gone through countless bloody struggles to overthrow the Communist rule, but could never be turbulent, divided and oppressed by foreign powers, suddenly saw a glimmer of light that could help China escape this fate.

In China, the first people to accept the October Revolution were a group of intellectuals who were influenced by anarchy. The newspapers they founded continuously reported on the trends of the Russian October Revolution and the attitudes of European countries towards it. Later, with the Russian Soviet government

The Communist Party of China gradually consolidated, and its ideas of social revolution gradually exerted influence in European countries, and subsequently affected China's progressive intellectuals. Sun Yat-sen even called Lenin to congratulate the Communist Party on the victory of his social reform, and the National Daily News

" also published numerous articles predicting that social revolutionary ideas would spread to East Asia and China.

Living in this world, the South China Sea Federation led by Liu Fu cannot avoid being washed away by this red tsunami.

fu has more foreign exchanges and smoother communication with Europe, the United States and other countries, so this storm has become more violent. Since 1918, student organizations such as socialist research groups have appeared in many federal universities, and internal affairs

The Ministry also specially reported this to Liu Fu, but Liu Fu did not plan to take any immediate action to interfere with the research of these students. He wanted to see whether a doctrine was more important, or whether it was more important for the people to have good food and housing.

In April 1918, when the whole world was in a state of restlessness, Liu Fu took the Federation's second aircraft carrier "Growth" and was escorted by 6 destroyers, departing from Keelung Port and heading to Cam Ranh in Annan Province.

Bay and began his tour of the federal provinces.

Originally, Liu Fu could take a more comfortable and more convenient cruise ship to Annan. At the beginning of 2016, Taiwan and the three provinces of Annan, as well as Luzon and Zamboanga Provinces all opened fixed routes. Take these passenger and cargo ships that regularly travel to fixed ports.

People can travel freely between the various provinces of the federation very conveniently. This is also an effort made by the federation to promote the economic development of each province.

But when Liu Fu learned that the "Growth" had passed the airworthiness test for more than a year, had joined the official establishment of the Federal Navy, and was about to be stationed in Cam Ranh Bay as the second federal aircraft carrier fleet, he immediately changed.

He came up with the idea and informed the Ministry of the Interior to change his itinerary from Keelung to Saigon to Keelung to Cam Ranh Bay, and his vehicle also changed from a small cruise ship to an aircraft carrier with a displacement of nearly 20,000 tons.

Before Liu Fu boarded the aircraft carrier "Zengzhi", he was surprised on the dock by this giant ship that he participated in the design of. Because the aircraft carrier does not need to be equipped with thick armor, let alone installation

The main gun weighs hundreds of thousands of tons, so this aircraft carrier

The ship looked much larger than its 16,000-ton displacement. Liu Fu stood on the pier, looking up at the hull above the water, as if he were standing under a five-story building with a length of 200 meters.

The 3-fold gangway looks so narrow and thin.

In order to maintain his image as the president of a country, Liu Fu took a deep breath, pretended to be at ease and walked up the winding gangway, and stopped midway to wave to the crowd seeing him off at the pier, and this kind of pretense was b

The consequence of this action was that the further down I looked, the more dizzy I felt, followed by a tumbling sensation in my chest and abdomen. President Liu Fu felt a little seasick before he even boarded the deck.

Resisting the discomfort, Liu Fu boarded the main deck of the "Zengzhi". Since it was officially transferred to station, the deck of the "Zengzhi" was full of Navy torpedo planes and reconnaissance aircraft, all of which were secured by steel ropes.

Firmly fixed in their seats, the pilots and crew members were standing in a straight line in the middle of the deck, preparing to be inspected by the president.

It was like he had just gotten a big toy that he had longed for. After Liu Fu inspected some of the pilots and crew members as usual, he was escorted by the first captain of the "Growth" accompanied by several security personnel from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Omi Bevins led a tour of the brain of the mothership, the bridge command room.

This Captain Naomi Bevins, judging from his name, is a foreigner, so why does the federal government allow a foreigner to hold such an important position? In fact, it is not that the federal government knows people well and makes good use of them, nor does it

The federation has reached a level of complete integration of all ethnic groups, but Captain Nevins was born in Taiwan since he was a child. His parents, as the first batch of scientific research and technical personnel to come to Taiwan, met in Taiwan and merged together in the second

There was Naomi Bevans Jr.

For a child of European and American descent who was born in Taiwan and whose parents have become Taiwanese citizens, the education he received since childhood is no different from that of a Chinese child. The environment he has lived in since childhood is exactly the same as that of a Chinese child. If only because

His skin color is different from others, so he cannot fully integrate into the society of the Federation, and the tolerance of the Federation will be too low.

Captain Bevins is 31 years old this year. He has loved sailing since he was a child. After graduating from middle school, he was admitted to the then Keelung Naval Academy, which was a major specialized in training mid-level naval commanders for the then Taiwan Navy.

School. After five years of hard study, the 23-year-old Bevans ranked first in school and boarded the "Asia" cruise ship and became a trainee navigator.

After participating in many battles with the "Asia" heavy cruiser in the Philippines, Vietnam, etc., the 27-year-old Lieutenant Nevins was successfully promoted to the deputy captain of the "Asia" heavy cruiser. However, at this time, Nevins did

A decision that affected his life's destiny. He resigned from his position as deputy captain and signed up to join the naval aviation force. In his own words, the only thing that is broader than the sea is the blue sky. What can be better than flying a plane in the sky?

What is more wonderful and exciting than flying in the blue sky?

After four years of naval aviation training, it was time for the "Growth" aircraft carrier to select a captain from among mid-level officers within the Navy. Since Bevins had both experience in commanding large surface ships and had undergone pilot training

, so in a series of assessments, these two experiences of his helped him stand out among hundreds of competitors, became the captain of the Federation's second aircraft carrier, and was promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel.
