On September 9th, the day before the Fleet returned to Nagiu Port, Bai Zhizhan took the patrol plane that came to meet him and returned to Nagiu Port ahead of schedule.
After stopping over in Nagiu Port and Jeju Island, he arrived back at the Imperial Capital the following morning.
Although Liu Changxun had long made arrangements to heavily propagate the great victory at the Galapagos Sea Battle, and Xue Yuanzheng also intended to do so, Bai Zhizhan was not interested. Before returning to the Imperial Capital, he had sent a telegram to Liu Changxun, indicating he did not wish to participate in any promotional activities.
After disembarking from the plane, he went straight home. Regardless, for Bai Zhizhan, who was a father for the first time, returning home to see his wife and child was the greatest reward.
That evening, Bai Zhizhan also visited the Empress Dowager in the palace.
As for the propaganda, it was not delayed but merely included an additional item.
