About This Novel
This book mainly demonstrates that from the 1840s to the 1930s, China suffered maritime invasions from imperialist powers, including the Opium War, the Sino-French War, the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894, the Eight-Power Allied Forces' War of Invasion of China, and Japan's All-out War of Invasion of China. Most of these wars ended with China being defeated and signing unequal treaties, ceding territory to pay compensation, and losing power and humiliating the country. The fundamental reason why these national humiliations occur is the decline of the country. In addition to political corruption, economic backwardness, and lack of science and technology, the country has no concept of sea power and does not have enough maritime power to control sea power. This is a fatal weakness. Accepting the painful lessons of history, we must revitalize China's sea power, strengthen the construction of a powerful navy that can win battles on the ocean and control sea power, and train the naval fleet into a maritime field force with the ability to maneuver and attack and annihilate enemies on the maritime battlefield (surface, underwater, and air).
