The development of China's marine cause once had a glorious history with Zheng He's seven voyages to the Western Ocean. However, after that, feudal rulers closed their doors and imposed strict restrictions, suppressing the spirit of the Chinese nation's exploration and pioneering spirit toward the ocean. Especially during the Ming and Qing dynasties, the policy of sea prohibition lasted for over 400 years, causing the Chinese clans to miss multiple development opportunities triggered by marine civilization. The publication of this book will play a positive role in promoting China's marine culture, enhancing the marine awareness and coastal defense consciousness of the entire nation, and inspiring naval officers and young people to dedicate themselves to the great cause of loving, building, and defending the ocean.
