Around the Spring Festival, there were eight or nine students from all over the country who came from all over the country because of their love for airplanes. Including Zhang Zeyu, who arrived first, and the students in the school who were interested, there were more than ten people in total. On the day of the Lantern Festival, teachers and students held their first meeting in the newly renovated experimental building.
When almost every student arrived, Sun Yuanqi personally received them. In daily life, I often communicate with these students, inquire about their learning progress, understand their needs, and solve various corresponding questions. After a period of communication, Sun Yuanqi got a basic understanding of these students. Generally speaking, they all have a deep-rooted interest in aerospace. This is also understandable: without such strong feelings, who would come all the way to the capital and come to this remote suburb?
But what doesn¡¯t match their strong interest is their weak knowledge accumulation. Not to mention fluid mechanics, there are very few people who can read through Sun Yuanqi's "Basics of Engineering Mathematical Analysis" and "General Physics". In their simple understanding, if they want an airplane to fly into the sky, wouldn't it be enough to design it well and provide sufficient power? What kind of mathematics and physics are you studying?
At the meeting, everyone introduced themselves first, and then Sun Yuanqi spoke.
Sun Yuanqi stood up and raised his hands to everyone: "First of all, thank you all for being here. After listening to everyone's self-introductions, I know that you come from all over the motherland. For example, Wang Siyao is from Hubei, Zhang Zeyu is from Fengtian, and Zhang Jingfu is from Guizhou in the southwest of the motherland. A person who can travel thousands of miles to realize his dream is a prerequisite for achieving his dream. When you sit here, you have already taken the first step to realize your dream. Here, I represent The school welcomes you.
"Since the beginning of time, people have always longed to fly freely in the sky like birds, so our ancestors created the story of Chang'e flying to the moon. With just a magic pill, she can fly into the sky and reach the moon. How wonderful. What a wish! With the development of science and technology, flying and landing on the moon are no longer just dreams. I can tell you with great certainty that within the next hundred years, humans will definitely be able to land on the moon!
"But before that, the first problem we have to solve is how to fly into the sky first. Some people will say, don't we have hot air balloons now? Yes, with hot air balloons, mankind has realized the dream of taking off. However, because the safety of hot air balloons is too poor, the maneuverability is not strong, the speed is too slow, and it relies heavily on airflow, we are still a long way away from real flight. Now it seems that the only way to achieve flight is by airplane. .
"Airplanes are a new thing. They just completed their first test flight in the United States not long ago, and achieved a certain degree of success - well, to borrow the professional terminology of a certain country, it is a 'partial success'. You don't understand this new thing, I I don¡¯t understand! This requires us to grope in the dark together. Just like Watt developed the steam engine, we don¡¯t know and don¡¯t care. When someone uses the steam engine to build a ship and come over, we can only passively be beaten and stared at! The same is true for airplanes. In this way, we can't wait for the invaders to fly bombs on our heads before we study it, right?
"If you want an airplane to fly into the sky, I think you need two wings: one wing is physics, especially the fluid mechanics in physics, which determines how high you can fly; the other wing is the engine, which determines how high you can fly. Fast. A few days ago, I had a conversation with everyone here and got a little understanding of everyone's learning situation. I feel that in the next more than half a year or a year, everyone's main task is to learn how to use two wings before getting familiar with them. Walk on two feet.
"Which two feet are there? Foreign languages ??and mathematics. Almost all advanced scientific knowledge now is created by foreigners and written in foreign languages. Only by learning foreign languages ??well can we quickly understand the latest developments in foreign research on aircraft. And all Physics problems must ultimately be solved using mathematical methods, so mathematics must also be learned well.
"Researching aircraft is a long and arduous process. During this process, we must also pay attention to two points: active innovation and attention to confidentiality. The two are complementary to each other. Only continuous innovation can have the value of confidentiality. Only strict confidentiality can Only in this way can the role of innovation be ensured.
"Everyone, let us work together to realize our common dream. When fifty or a hundred years pass, I hope that when we look back on the past, we will be proud of today's decision!"
Among the more than ten people in this class, there are many famous experts represented by the "Three Masters of Aviation". They are the leading figures among the world's first generation of aviation people, supporting the development of China's aviation industry.
This meeting was held in early 1904, which was later called the "First Year of Chinese Aviation".
Just when Sun Yuanqi was preparing various matters for the Aircraft Research Institute,The Russo-Japanese War kicked off vigorously in Northeast China: On February 6, 1904, Japan officially severed diplomatic relations with Russia and launched an undeclared war on the night of February 8. Regarding the Qing court¡¯s stance in this war, later history books wrote this:
The Russo-Japanese War was mainly fought on Chinese territory. The thoroughly corrupt Qing government ignored national sovereignty and people's lives and property, and allowed the iron hooves of Japan and Russia to trample the beautiful rivers and mountains of Northeast China. On February 12, 1904, the Qing government shamelessly declared "outside neutrality" and designated the area east of the Liao River as a "combat zone" between the Japanese and Russian armies. It also strictly ordered local military and political chiefs to "increase strict precautions" and "effective suppression" against the people.
If Sun Yuanqi had read this passage in the early 21st century, he might have approved of it. When one truly integrates into this period of historical life and truly feels the powerlessness of the declining national power, the government's "partial neutrality" policy seems to be more understandable. Perhaps, this is what Mr. Chen Yinke calls "understanding and sympathy."
Contrary to the "neutrality" policy publicly stated by the government, there is a turbulent sentiment of "alliance with Japan and rejection of Russia" in both the government and the opposition. During this period, Sun Yuanqi also received a letter from Cai Yuanpei, saying that they had organized and established a "Comrades Association Against Russia" to step up research on ways to deal with Russian aggression. Along with the letter, I also sent the magazine "Russian Affairs Police News" that they edited. After browsing through it, I found that the entire article was full of arguments of "alliance with Japan and rejection of Russia."
Sun Yuanqi is even more depressed. How come even an outstanding figure like Cai Yuanpei is involved in this kind of tune? They have selectively forgotten the huge trauma caused by the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894 ten years ago. Is it because Japan¡¯s propaganda is too good or because our memory is too poor?
As the Japanese army achieved victory after victory in the Northeast, the whole country celebrated and cheered. In Jingshi University, the news about the Russo-Japanese war is broadcast every day, and students of all ages listen attentively. They are overjoyed when they hear that the Japanese army is victorious, and depressed when they hear that the Japanese army is defeated. At this time, Sun Yuanqi felt that he was "alone, surrounded by shadows and shadows."
There is nowhere to vent your emotions, and they accumulate in your heart day by day. Under this situation, you can feel the helplessness of Qu Yuan's "The whole world is turbid, but I am alone clear, everyone is drunk, and I am alone awake." One day after the Spring Festival, Sun Yuanqi decided to go to the city to visit his uncle and ask him for advice.
Sun Jianai, who is already 78 after the New Year, was awarded the title of Bachelor of Dongge University last year and served as Minister of Government Affairs and Minister of Academic Affairs. Although the old man is still strong and healthy, after all, time is not forgiving, and he has become more and more old over the years.
In the study, the boss listened carefully to Sun Yuanqi's concerns about Japan's rapid rise after defeating Russia, and then asked: "Baixi, why are you so sure that the Japanese army will win this fierce battle?"
Sun Yuanqi then remembered that the Russo-Japanese War started in early 1904 and continued until the second half of 1905, when it ended with a disastrous defeat for the Russian army. This is a knowledge point in the article "Mr. Fujino" in the Chinese textbook back then, so remember it. As for now, the war has just begun. Both sides are deploying troops and generals. The large-scale war has not yet begun. It does seem a bit pretentious to say that the Japanese army will win. As for worrying about the Japanese invasion of China after their victory, it is even more unfounded.
Wanting to prevaricate, but not wanting to deceive the boss, I had to bite the bullet and said, "Yes, uncle, based on the current situation, I can be sure that the Japanese army will win!"
Fortunately, the old man did not ask further questions and just stroked his beard slowly: "Based on various information from the Military Aircraft Department, I also predicted that the Japanese army would win. Even if they don't win, it would be a tragic victory. After all, Tsarist Russia is not someone to be dealt with! How can Baixi make such a judgment? , extremely rare!¡±
What kind of judgment do I have? It is clearly written in the books of later generations! Sun Yuanqi thought so in his heart, but would not say anything. He just said: "Japan first defeated China in the Sino-Japanese War, and then reduced Korea to a vassal state. Now that it has defeated Tsarist Russia, it will no longer have any rivals in East Asia. If it wins again and again, its ambitions will inevitably expand. . When you look around, you must aim at China. If this is the case, the country is in danger! The nation is in danger!"
The old man squinted his eyes and looked Sun Yuanqi up and down: "Baixi, did someone tell you this, or did you figure it out yourself?"
Sun Yuanqi said nonchalantly: "I listened to the radio and figured it out on my own."
The old man nodded with satisfaction: "That's right! That's right! If you don't plan for the eternity, you can't plan for a moment; if you don't plan for the overall situation, you can't plan for a region. You can think so far, I am so grateful!" Immediately, the old man said seriously. : "However, Baixi, it's a good thing to see things from afar. You must also see clearly the critical things at hand!"
Sun Yuanqi quickly asked for advice.
The old man stroked his beard: "Bai Xi, are you dissatisfied with our policy of maintaining neutrality in the public domain, but uniting with Japan and resisting Russia in reality? In fact, this is all out of necessity! Isn't there any prince in the court? People with a discerning eye? Who can¡¯t remember the disastrous defeat of the Sino-Japanese War ten years ago? Who can¡¯t see clearly Japan¡¯s wolfish ambitions? The critical situation forces us to do this. To put it bluntly, the Northeast is now ¡®preferring to be with Japan, not with Russia¡¯!¡± ( To be continued.
