In the First Sino Japanese War, the Qing Dynasty had a total of four naval divisions, why did they j

The main reason why the Beiyang Fleet fought alone and was completely annihilated was becauseClear**of corruption and incompetence. It is the partisanship and disagreement between the various parties that have led to this result.

Beiyang FleetHe once saw death to the Nanyang Fleet and could not save it

In the Sino-French War.

After the outbreak, the South Sea Fleet faced the French navy in order to protect the territory, and the battle situation at that time was daily and anxious. Zuo Zongtang, who single-handedly built the Nanyang Fleet.

He once asked the Beiyang Fleet for help, but the Beiyang Fleet refused to go south. Later, at the request of the imperial court, the Beiyang Fleet sent two ships to help the Nanyang Fleet, but something happened in Korea halfway through. So Li Hongzhang.

Sent to support, the two ships of the Nanyang Fleet turned around and sailed towards North Korea in the middle.

2. The South Sea Fleet is poorly equipped, and the problem of clearing ** is procrastinating

After the Beiyang Fleet clashed with the Japanese army, its strength was clearly defeated. At this time, the Qing ** was also concerned about the emptiness of the rear of the Japanese army, so they wanted to send the Nanyang Fleet to directly attack the Japanese mainland. But before the idea of encircling Wei and saving Zhao was implemented, the news of the total annihilation of the Beiyang Fleet had already come.

Therefore, even if the Nanyang Fleet went to the rescue, the effect would be very small. At the same time, the factional disputes between the Nanyang and Beiyang fleets involved in the Qing Dynasty made it impossible for everyone to work together.

To sum up, the First Sino-Japanese War.

As we all know, this crisis, which greatly deepened China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, announced the Westernization Movement in modern China.

The results of the work were wiped outIt has shattered the hope of the Chinese for national rejuvenation in modern times, and the national crisis has greatly deepened. At the same time, China, as a defeated country, also ceded land and paid reparations to Japan, which increased the financial crisis of the Qing Dynasty and strengthened Japan's national strength

The First Sino-Japanese War can be said to be the most failed foreign war in Chinese history, which has many reasons, both international and domestic reasons, although the Qing Dynasty at that time had four naval divisions, but three of them can be said to basically exist in name onlyFor various reasons, the Beiyang Naval Division was nothing more than the basic combat effectiveness of the Qing court in order to show off its strength.

On the one hand, the Qing Dynasty at that time could be said to be in jeopardyIt seems powerful to the outside, but these are all built on the fact that the people are in the midst of fire and waterIn the imperial court, some prescient ** vigorously carried out the Westernization movement, and successively established four water divisions, but after the establishment of the water division, a large amount of capital was needed, at that time, Li Hongzhang, as the main person in charge of the Beiyang Naval Division, because of the promotion of the Westernization movement, has visited many countries in Europe and the United States, and also learned a lot of experience.

In addition, the Beiyang Naval Division is the closest maritime military force to the Beijing Division, so it is inevitable to vigorously develop this maritime force, so the Qing court at that time invested a lot of energy to build this maritime military force. After the outbreak of the First Sino-Japanese War, the Beiyang Naval Division naturally became the main force to resist the Japanese Navy because of its strengthIn addition, due to the mistake of military command, the Beiyang Naval Division had to fight alone.

On the other hand, the corruption of the Qing Dynasty has made these European and American powers see no hope, when the First Sino-Japanese War broke out, the Qing court also tried to ask for help, but no country with vested interests to help the Beiyang Naval Division, because they can no longer see any hope under this corrupt ** rule. Geographically,The first attack of the Japanese invaders must have been Beijing, and the Battle of the Yellow Sea as we know it broke out in such a specific historical backgroundBut in the end, it did fail. The other three naval divisions were unable to help at all because they were restrained by the Qing court, and they could only watch the Beiyang naval division annihilated.

There is no accident in history, only necessity, and the lone struggle of the Beiyang Naval Division has also awakened the sleeping Chinese.

In fact, during the First Sino-Japanese War, the development of the Qing Dynasty's naval army was not good, so the defeat was expected.

Because only the Beiyang Naval Division has the ability to fight naval battles with the great powers, the other naval divisions just have a name, and their combat effectiveness is too poor, even if they participate in the war, they are just giving away their heads.

Because in terms of the situation at that time, only the Beiyang Naval Division could fight against the enemy, and the others did not have much combat effectiveness.

Because judging from the battle situation at that time, the Beiyang Naval Division was the most brave and good fighting team, and it was possible to deal with the foreign enemy at that time, but they underestimated the ability of the foreign invaders at that time.

I think this should be a strategy, after all, every war should be planned before it starts.

I think the main reason is that there is a big gap in their abilities, so they chose this way

Fujian, Beiyang, Nanyang (established by Li Hongzhang).

The Beiyang Fleet is the first in Asia and the second in the world.

The strength was roughly the same, but the Japanese ships had strong artillery and the Qing troops fought accurately. During the naval battle, the Japanese retreated first, and the Qing Dynasty pursued it, but failed to run out of shells. The defeat was on land, the Japanese army made a detour to land, attacked the rear battery of Liugong Island, and defeated the sailors who were not allowed to leave the port with Qing artillery ......

The strength of the Chinese Beiyang Navy ** is as follows.

Dingyuan, Zhenyuan, armored coastal defense warships in East Asia, slow speed, strong firepower, extremely thick armor.

Jiyuan, a Volkeng dome cruiser, is fast, has poor firepower, and the protection is very weird, and the experimental ship is very impractical.

Pingyuan, the coastal defense ironclad ship transferred from Fujian, has strong firepower, extremely slow speed, very thick armor, and the iron-wedged gunboat manufactured by the Fujian Shipbuilding Administration, if the firepower is ruo, the protection is extremely poor, and the speed is generally Guangyi, Guangc, and the torpedo cruiser built by the Fujian Shipbuilding has average firepower, poor protection, and the speed is fast Chaoyong, Yang Wei, Armstrong ramming the cruiser, the firepower is weak, the armor is very thin, and the speed is slow, and there are large torpedo boats Fulong, a number of neutral torpedo boats, and the gunboat commanders are Ding Ruchang, Liu Buchan, and Lin Taizeng.

The combat strength of the footbasin is as follows.

The commanders are Yuhiro Ito and Kozo Tsuboi.

The total tonnage is about the same, and it seems that the Japanese Combined Fleet is slightly higher, but the two ironclad ships of more than 7,000 tons, "Dingyuan" and "Zhenyuan" in the Beiyang Naval Division, are the leading warships in East Asia, and they are relatively strong even if they are put into the world, but in addition to this, there is no 3,000-ton warship, which means that the polarization is very serious. On the contrary, Japan does not have many giant ships, but there are more than five capital ships of 3000-5000 tonnage (I can't remember how many of them...... exactlyAnd the speed was relatively faster, so that the Japanese ships showed good flexibility during the Battle of the Yellow Sea.

Supreme Commander: Admiral Ding Ruchang of the Beiyang Naval Division, Commander of the Japanese Combined Fleet Ito Yuhiro.

The Great Qing Dynasty is the first fleet in Asia, the ironclad ships far surpass Japan, the caliber of the cannon is also larger than that of Japan, the Japanese battleships have many rapid-fire guns, and there are more ships participating in the war, and it is a sneak attack.
