The world is crying on this day, and the power of the navy is strong. How the Beiyang Navy, which once shocked the world, was established and became the number one in Asia, and how it was buried in the sea and then destroyed. It truly reproduces the bloody battle between China and Japan, the Massacre of Port Arthur, the Korean War in Pyongyang, the Battle of Liaodong, the Battle of Fengdao, the Battle of the Yellow Sea, and the Battle of Weihai in Shandong. In 1855, Shipping Minister Shen Baozhen founded the Fuzhou Shipping School and trained the first batch of young naval officers to become commanders of the Fujian Navy and the Beiyang Navy. On March 31, 1877, some of these outstanding naval officers went to study at the British Naval Academy, shouldering the high hopes and trust given to them by the country. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan stepped up its efforts to purchase and manufacture warships to accelerate its development. Officers sent by the navy also studied in the UK and became their later opponents. In 1874, Japan used the excuse of the killing of fishermen in Sulfur Ball to bombard Taiwan and send troops to land. The Battle of Majiang broke out at 13:50 on August 23, 1884; in 1888, the world-famous Beiyang Navy was formally established, with two large ironclads, eight cruisers, six gunboats, 16 torpedo boats, and five training ships...a total of 56 ships and more than 4,000 officers and soldiers. In 1894, the Sino-Japanese-Korean War broke out. At 7:45 on July 25, the Japanese navy attacked Toshima at the mouth of the Yalu River.
