If the &”;ship&”; is compared to a person, there is no doubt that the Japanese &”;Yoshino&”; is our enemy. Because &”;Yoshino&”; first played an outstanding role in the Sino-Japanese War, destroying many Beiyang Navy personnel; Later, in the boxer, he came to invade China with his master. This hatred is really &”;bitter.&”; But what is more hateful than the ship is the person who drives the ship and the country behind it. Today, instead of talking about people, let&;s talk about boats. Let&;s take a look at past lives of the Yoshino, live and die. Some people say that the Yoshino was originally ordered by Li Hongzhang, but it was not purchased successfully because of insufficient funds. Is this true? Definitely, no. The ship booked by Li Hongzhang has larger displacement and more firepower than the Yoshino, but the speed is more than the first half of the Yoshino. If that ship is really bought, it will be difficult for Japan to win the Sino-Japanese War. The ship was finally bought by Chile from the British Empire. There are two reasons why Li Hongzhang didn&;t buy it. First, the price was not low, and Qing was short of money. Second, Japan is obstructing in every way. Qing did not succeed in purchasing, but Japan succeeded in purchasing &”;Yoshino&”;. Yoshino, with a displacement of 4,150 tons and a ship length of 109.73 meters, looks like the displacement is not particularly large, but the speed of this ship is very fast, reaching 23 knots, which is the fastest ship in the world at that time. Compared with those ships in Qing Dynasty, it is too far away. At that time, Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, the two largest armored ships in Qing Dynasty, had a displacement of 7,335 tons, but their speed was only 14.5 knots. Zhiyuan, where Deng Shichang was located, had a displacement of 2,300 tons, and its speed was only 18 knots. The key point was that Zhiyuan, where Deng Shichang was located, was the fastest in Beiyang Navy. Not to mention the displacement and speed, let&;s just talk about firepower. The Yoshino was equipped with four of the most advanced large-caliber rapid-fire guns at that time, which was fatal. The barrel of the Yoshino was 5-6 rounds per minute, with a speed of 671 m/s and an effective range of 8,600 m. Although the number of gun barrels of Qing ships is quite large, the firing rate is too slow, and it takes about three minutes to fire a shell, which is more than ten times worse. It is a word &”;difficult&”; to win such an opponent. Under the huge speed and force gap, the Yoshino, like a star, became an instant hit in the Sino-Japanese War, and became famous. At the same time, it became a nightmare for the Beiyang Navy. The patriotic general Deng Shichang died gloriously in the Sino-Japanese War, not because Lao Deng was not bad, but the gap in weapons and equipment was too big. In 1894, the Yoshino was on fire, and in 1895, the Yoshino made a splash in the battle of ahava. It was really arrogant. In 1900, the Yoshino came again, this time with Eight-Nation Alliance&;s attack on the Qing Dynasty. It was in the middle of June, 1900. Under the command of the Russian navy generals, the imperialist coalition forces invading China attacked our Dagukou Fort with 24 warships. Under the stubborn resistance of the defenders, six warships were sunk and 200 enemy soldiers were killed. At the height of the war, Luo Rongguang, the commander of Dagukou, died gloriously. Because there was no leader, Dagu Fort fell. In this naval battle, the Yoshino was among the ships.Don&;t fall in the wind, continue to throw its weight around once, and at the same time increase the blood debt by one point. In 1904, the Russo-Japanese War began on the land of northeast China, and two robber countries launched a &”;dog-eat-dog&”; war on my land. The Russo-Japanese War was not only on land, but also on Lushunkou. The Yoshino was dispatched again. At this time, the Yoshino was twelve years old, which was regarded as an &”;old man&”; in the fleet, but the ship &”;refused to accept the old age&”; and worked with the young ships. On may 15, 1904, the Japanese fleet and Russia fired at each other, and Russia lost. After Japan blocked Lushunkou, five Japanese ships began to return. On the way back, the fog filled, and the Japanese ship that died entered the minefield laid by the Russians. At ten o&;clock in the evening, a Japanese ship exploded. It was called &”;Chuotter&”;. Other Japanese ships were ready to rescue and risked their lives to approach the &”;Chuotter&”;. As a result, the mine triggered by the &”;Eight Islands&”; also exploded, and the two ships were flooded in large quantities, which was a mess. At this time, the Yoshino was nearby. At first glance, the situation was wrong, and it was ready to run away. Before it ran far, it was hit by the Japanese &”;Spring Day&”; sailing at a high speed. Immediately, a hole of 10 meters long appeared on the Yoshino, and the sea water poured in. Soon, the Yoshino sank. Of the 413 people on board the Yoshino, 99 were rescued, and all the others died with the ship. Deng Shichang tried to hit the Yoshino, but it didn&;t succeed. It was finally completed by the Japanese &”;Spring Day&”;, which was really unpredictable. Maybe Deng Shichang did it when she was sinking with the ship, otherwise how could it be so clever? Yoshino finally sank, and it should sink, because it has done too much evil with its owner and its country.
