When did the China Navy originate?

When did our navy originate? Recently, in order to welcome the Spring Festival, Shandong Ship also released a hard-core New Year video, and all officers and men showed us the characteristics of China Navy. Speaking of the navy, China definitely has a profound historical background. According to historical records, there was a description of holding a boat in the Xia Dynasty more than 3,500 years ago, which also started the development of our navy in China.

According to historical records, in the 6th century BC, China had a relatively perfect navy. According to the customs and habits of coastal areas, the government called experts in the water to conduct naval selection and training. Moreover, the government has always attached great importance to the construction of the navy, but there has never been a systematic arrangement. It was not until the Spring and Autumn Period that the appearance of sailors was the real naval force and the earliest navy in the world.

We have studied the Three Kingdoms since childhood, and we should know that Wu is good at water warfare. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, due to the development of China's iron smelting technology and shipbuilding industry, the shipbuilding capacity was constantly improved. Not only in Wu at that time, but also in wuyue, the most developed country in the two countries. Moreover, because Wu occupies more geographical advantages, many people depend on the sea for a living, so their popularity is relatively high. The development of shipbuilding technology is also an indispensable factor in naval construction.

As the wheels of the times roll forward, the navy has its own unique position in each era, such as the well-known battle of Baijiangkou in Tang Dynasty, Zheng He's voyage to the West, Zheng Chenggong's Xiamen-Zhangzhou naval battle, Wusha port naval battle, and the Yellow Sea naval battle. It can be seen that the significance of the ancient navy is not only in combat, but also in trade, port protection and tribute.

In modern times, as the world was gradually recognized, colonial aggression was increasingly carried out all over the world. At this time, in order to protect the territory from infringement, many countries attach great importance to the navy and develop rapidly, and China is no exception. Since the founding of New China, our country has always attached great importance to the construction of the navy, especially after the reform and opening up, and invested a lot of money and technology to build such a navy with strong modern combat capability. China's naval construction is also a milestone.

Since ancient times, China's navy has been developing and building in a stronger direction.
