The battle between Fang Boqian and Akio Toyoda is recorded in historical materials. /kloc-in the 1970s, Japan formed the European navy, invaded the Province of Taiwan Province, China, tried to annex the Ryukyu Islands, and wanted to further invade China and North Korea. In this battle, Gao Shenghao was sunk by the Japanese warship "Su Lang" under the command of Hirahiro Dongchuan. Of the 950 people aboard the Gao Shenghao, only 200 survived, and all the other Qing soldiers died.
At that time, it was Fang Boqian who was in charge of the Jiyuan Ship, because he had no combat experience. After seeing another warship of the Qing army, Guangyi, seriously damaged and self-destructed, there were casualties again in Jiyuan. He felt timid and began to run away without really starting a war. When Japanese warships chased Jiyuan, Jiyuan raised a white flag and a Japanese flag. At that time, it was reported in the Qing dynasty that Jiyuan was not fleeing, but was chased by Japanese warships on the way out of the battlefield and fought back with tail guns. And defeated the Japanese warships, so the Japanese ran away with the dragon flag of China. However, the operating device of Jiyuan was damaged and failed to catch up with the Japanese army. Although he was a general of Jiyuan, Ding, the highest general of naval warfare at that time, attributed this credit to sailors and Li Shimao when reporting to the Qing Dynasty.
The victory of this campaign was not directly related to Fang Boqian, and the story of the tail gun retreating from the enemy was also the highlight of the Qing army in the Toyota campaign. Later, because Fang Boqian fled without fighting, the Qing Dynasty beheaded Fang Boqian. This is the relationship between Fang Boqian and Akio Toyoda.
What's the difference with Liu?
He was a naval general in the late Qing Dynasty, but his ending was different from Liu's. Fang Boqian studied sailing in England and became the captain of the Qing Navy "Jiyuan" after returning home. He was beheaded by the imperial court in the Yellow Sea because of his strong enemy's escape. In the naval battle in Ahava, Liu commanded the Qing soldiers to fight bravely with the enemy and died in the battle at the age of 43.

Fujian Hou 1867 was admitted to Fujian Ship Administration School to study navigation. After graduation, Liu He worked as an intern in Jianwei. During this period, they visited the ports of Bohai Bay and Liaodong Peninsula with the "Wei Jian", and also visited Singapore and Penang. 1874 won the fifth medal of the Qing dynasty and began to teach on the ambush ship. When the Japanese invaders invaded Taiwan Province Province, they were transferred to Taiwan Province Province by the Qing Dynasty to fight against Japan, and later transferred to the Chief Officer of Changsheng Warship, in charge of Wuyang Warship from 65438 to 0875. 1876, Fang Boqian visited Britain, stayed in Britain successfully, and was transferred to beiyang fleet. The last naval battle was the battle of the Yellow Sea. Fang Boqian saw two ships of the Qing Dynasty sinking, got cold feet and was finally executed by the Qing Dynasty.
Liu Ye, Fujian Houguan, graduated from Fujian Ship Administration School with his classmates. Ding, the commander-in-chief of the Qing Dynasty, was injured in the battle of the Yellow Sea, and Liu replaced Ding. He was very brave in the battle. He was badly injured and didn't leave the battlefield. Compared with those who escaped from the cold, Liu is much bigger. However, something unexpected happened, and he died heroically in the naval battle in Ahava the following year. This is the relationship with Liu.
What about the real Fang Boqian in the Sino-Japanese War?
According to historical records, Fang Boqian was beheaded by the court as a deserter in the Sino-Japanese War. Some people think that this is not the real Fang Boqian in the Sino-Japanese War, and most people think that Fang Boqian died unjustly.

According to Fang Boqian's wife, the real Fang Boqian in the Sino-Japanese War was like this: In the Battle of Toyoda in the Sino-Japanese War, Fang Boqian fought bravely with the Japanese invaders after seeing the Guangyi ship of the Qing army seriously damaged and destroyed itself. Not afraid to fight or run, but it took a long time to lose to the Japanese army and began to retreat. On the way back, I was chased by the Japanese aggressors. Fang Boqian relaxed the enemy by pretending to surrender with a white flag. The story of When the Enemy retreats from the enemy at the end of the cannon is also one of the few highlights in this failed naval battle. This is the Sino-Japanese War of 1894- 1895, and this is the real Fang Boqian.
The key factor of the failure of this naval battle is the command error of Ding and Liu. General Fang Boqian witnessed their command. Ding and Liu decided to blame the failure on. Therefore, the information reported to the imperial court was that Fang Boqian had no combat experience and was afraid of fighting after seeing Guangyi's self-destruction, so he chickened out. The indisputable fact that the tail gun retreated from the enemy also attributed the credit to Jiyuan sailors, what's more, it was Fang Boqian's credit that allowed the court to execute Fang Boqian in the form of personal vendetta, which played a role in killing people. Historians say that if what Fang Boqian said is true, then the real Fang Boqian in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression is our national hero, not a deserter who is afraid of war.
