But what Yuan Fang didn't expect was that these generals who dragged the relationship didn't care about it, and their enthusiasm was still undiminished, and later Yuan Fang complained to Yuqing, and Yuqing solved his puzzles Yuan Fang only knew that those generals didn't hesitate to look for people to say good things in face It was not really to strengthen the strength of their own legion, they were for their comrades-in-arms and friends to have a better future, and those generals recommended by them were basically the pro-soldiers and guards who had followed them for many years or something, what did these people say, they usually support the safety of the generals, and rarely can go into battle to kill the enemy in person, So there are not a lot of military merits or anything, the military ranks are not too high, the military salary and treatment of the empire are all issued according to military merits and ranks, these pro-soldiers and guards pay more, but get very little, now with such an opportunity, the generals who have long regarded them as relatives and friends naturally want to fight for a better future for them.

Yuan Fang understands their approach very well, and the people they recommend are all loyal and visible, but Yuan Fang still has some scruples, these people basically have one thing in common, that is, loyalty, not only loyalty to the empire, but also loyalty to their generals before, these people are nothing to stay in the original army, Yuan Fang is out of sight, out of mind, and can't care, but once these people are recruited to the Air Force Academy, it will be different, and the last thing Yuan Fang wants to see is to form a gang.

Yuan Fang's worries are a bit redundant, Yuqing has seen a lot of things in this regard, let's put it this way, those guards may be grateful to their previous superiors at the beginning, and they can even be said to be obedient, as long as the other party says a word, they can go to the soup and go to the fire, but the reality is cruel, time can really dilute everything, gratitude is also effective, as long as there is enough time to forget, that kind of foolish loyalty will gradually fade, of course, there will still be gratitude, but it will never happen what Yuan Fang is worried about.

Just like Yuqing trusts Yuan Fang, Yuan Fang also believes in Yuqing unreservedly, this matter is so decided, the first batch of trainees are selected in a not very upright form, and the selected soldiers must arrive at Pukou Military Port within the specified time, and go to the Emerald Island in a unified manner.

In addition to the military cadets, Yuan also set up a non-military flight course, and the local government offices were responsible for recommending the cadets, which was a reserve for future development.

Airships, in the near future, will become the main means of transportation and armed forces of the Dongsheng Empire, local government offices, local garrisons also need the assistance of airships, of course, these airships will not be armed airships, performance and defense will be very different from military airships, but they also need pilots to pilot, and the same is true for civilian airships, so Yuan Fang had this idea.

The people sent by the local government offices to study are different from the trainees selected by the military, they will return to their original places after graduation to start a new job, but the selection of these people must also be more stringent, they must pass the screening of the dark night, have no historical stains, and have enough loyalty to the empire.

The Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce sent the most students this time, a total of almost five hundred, and the total number of students selected by the local government offices is almost the same, this is what Yuan Fang means, the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce as the economic pillar of the empire, equipped with the most convenient means of transportation is understandable, these future pilots will take on the work of commercial transportation, the piloting of large transport airships, is their main course.

In almost a month, the students rushed to the Emerald Island from all directions, but there were too many students, the number of instructors was not enough, and everyone had to manage one or two hundred trainees who were a little overwhelmed, no way, Yuqing had to ask Yang Xing, and finally transferred more than half of the manpower from the Tianyao Air Force to barely enough, in this way, the female soldiers of the Tianyao Air Force were completely established as seniors in the Air Force, because the officers and soldiers of the Air Force after that were basically their students, when these students came to a new post after graduation, Even if they have a higher rank, they have to salute and salute the instructor respectfully when they see these female soldiers.

At the same time as the opening of the Air Force Academy, the Meihua Chamber of Commerce launched a larger plan and investment, this investment can be said to be the largest and most extensive in history, some core members such as Damei, Xin Huilan and Jiang Chengjia decided to invest all the funds in the construction of civilian airports and a series of corresponding facilities in various places, and obtained Yang Xing's permission to purchase a number of civilian transport airships and large transport airships from the military factory as long-distance transportation.

The Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce actually has the ability to produce its own airship, and it is the most advanced kind at the moment, but this kind of airship belongs to military materials, and the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce does not dare to use it, so it has to be purchased from the military factory, and the required fog stone, the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce will also buy it from the Empire, the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce is Yang Xing's, and the same is true of the Dongsheng Empire, which seems a bit redundant, but it must be so.

Three months passed in a flash, Yuan Fang stayed in the Emerald Isle for less than two months, and when the academy was on the right track, he shook off his hands as always, pushed everything to Yuqing, and went to the shipyard with the red clothes who had a lot of fun, and then returned to the Imperial Capital Military Hospital.

The shipyard has issued a model, the first catamaran has begun to be manufactured, Tie Niu and Ye Xin have been laying on the shipbuilding day and night, the progress is okay, and the first catamaran will be launched into service in about three or five months.

Tie Niu received a letter from Mu Xinya some time ago and went to the imperial capital, he had no opinion on the marriage, anyway, in his opinion, Mu Xinya was in charge of marrying a wife, so on a fairly sunny day, Tie Niu, dressed in gorgeous clothes, met with Liu Chengxiang's youngest daughter in the palace, and then, there was no news.

In this matter, Yang Xing also specially asked Yuan Fang to discuss in the past, what is the idea of this Prime Minister Liu Cheng, how to let his daughter follow the envoy group to come over and meet Tie Niu and then there is no movement? Could it be that you haven't taken a fancy to the Iron Bull? Later, the intelligence officers lurking in the Wen'an Empire sent back the news that Prime Minister Liu Cheng had been busy with a very important matter recently, which seemed to be related to the airship, Yuan Fang was still a little nervous after learning the news, the so-called world is unpredictable, who knows if this Prime Minister Liu Cheng will really get an airship out, Yuan Fang immediately issued an order, ordering the members of the dark night to closely monitor Prime Minister Liu Cheng's every move, and obtain the development progress of the other party's airship at any cost.

Hongyi and Tie Niu grew up together, the two hadn't seen each other for so long, and they had endless words, Yuan Fang had to stay in the shipyard for one more day before returning to the imperial capital with the reluctant red-cloth.
