Marco's affairs are not tabled, Zhou Qingfeng is satisfied with the rapid improvement of the current Tianjin security.What he wants to do now is to expand the army again, the boot camp has been built outside the city, and a large number of new recruits are officially recruited to receive training.The number of recruits is particularly large, which is the 1617 expansion plan of the Guards of the Guards determined last year.The total strength will be increased from 5,000 to 20,000.

The training of the recruits of the Guards was carried out in Tianjin and Jinzhou, and 8,000 people were trained respectively.At the same time, Li Shuwei in Shandong will also train an additional 5,000 to ensure the maintenance of a considerable military presence in Shandong.At the same time, the military academy was officially rolled out to provide qualified officers for the Guards - at least to understand the order, to have basic knowledge, and to understand basic tactics.

For this expansion, Zhou Qingfeng will be tested by the "Beijing-Tianjin Front" to split up.Old and new, directly integrated into the recruits for training.The entire training period is three months.The officer training is also taking place and is expected to be completed in July.In addition, Zhou Qingfeng also intends to compile 50,000 non-departure militias to maintain localities and serve as a reserve force for the Guard.

In exchange for the real anti-thieves, this time must be wrapped up hundreds of thousands of horses everywhere to fight the autumn wind.But this expansion of Zhou Qingfeng can still do as much as possible.He referred to the ongoing "Gustav military reform" in Europe at the same time, mainly to increase the number of fire thorns in the army, to train the hollow phalanx in the company, to mix spears and fire clinks, and to separate the artillery into the army, with the use of.

"The situation in the sea cover is stable, the close guard of the high bulls and two thousand people guarding the sea state, with rockets, artillery and trenches for defensive operations, the defense line is still stable."The only trouble is that the tall cattle are too young, their temperament is impulsive, and their combat experience is seriously insufficient, which makes people worry.However, with his top in Haizhou, Zhao Ze can return to the engineering department of Jinzhou to personally guide the work.

In order to maintain contact, six fast communication ships from Tianjin, Lushun and Dengzhou each of the eight hours, to maintain communication with each other.Xu Bing got the news will be copied to Zhou Qingfeng, the two people officially live together, at night will discuss half an hour of work before going to bed.

"With the supply of pig iron in Tianjin and Shandong, Stone's steel plant successfully completed the second phase of construction.Zhao Ze is also expanding the production capacity of the machinery factory, and the output of the steam engine has been increased to 15 units of 30 horsepower per month, and five sets of 100 horsepower.

In addition, the use of hydropower is also carried out at full speed, and we have built two new hydropower processing plants on the peninsula, and there are five factories to be built in the later period.Fewer investment in hydropower plants, quick results and low skill difficulty are our focus of construction this year.However, the construction of so many factories has great requirements for administrative management, and it is a problem of insufficient cadres.This is not easy to understand, only slow training.

But with so many factories, the 80,000 spears you need to expand the army will be produced in a month, and the militia and the Guards of the spears will not have to worry about weapons.The armour was later, and the five thousand sets of infantry and cavalry armor would not begin until May.It is also completed in a month.

In addition, the shipyard officially began to build 500 tons of steam-powered standard transport ships.This time, the sharp-bottomed stern type of the sea ship was used, equipped with two 100-horsepower steam engines, and the speed of the ship could be increased to nine knots.I don't know if it's technically possible, it's an experiment anyway.

Zhao Ze is trying to build a 250-horsepower steam engine, for which he designed a more thermally efficient boiler.He wanted to build a warship, but it was said to be difficult on the drivetrain.He also asked me for money to report and ask for money to run a mechanical design institute.God knows where he's going to find someone to do this job, but he's absolutely free."

When Zhou Qingfeng heard this, he asked, “When will the gun come out?”

For the flint gun, Zhou Qingfeng said for half a year.But Xu Bing leaned on his shoulder and laughed, “Zhao Ze said when there was spring steel and when there was a flanzer gun.”Steelmaking Stone said that all batches of steel in steel mills are unqualified, and spring steel is not yet possible.He told you not to rush, and to hurry him up again.So you'll continue with a rifle."

The steel industry is really troublesome, and Stone tossed for six months and has not yet established his steel laboratory.Which guy found a lot of jade carving craftsmen and mirror artisans, it is said that Mr. produced optical glass to make a microscope to do metallographic detection.At the same time, it is necessary to develop chemical separation of minerals such as manganese, molybdenum and silicon.

In short, the science and technology trees on Stone's side have been climbing enough, and he has been everywhere asking for help from other traversers.

“Isn’t there anything to be happy about?”Listening to Zhou Qingfeng, Xu Bing put down the ice and buried her head in her chest.

Xu Bing screamed, took a long breath, and continued: "The good news is that Zhao Ze went back to personally engage in technological development, and got a ham to five feet of a mound."He also greatly upgraded the forging machine, can forge large diameter forging materials.So your next heavy guns will be forged tubes, longer-diameters, more loaded, more powerful, and constant weight.”

“Like my gun?”Zhou Qingfeng did not know when to straight up his waist and straight in, and made Xu Bing so that he had to hold the sheet tightly.

"Bad man, I'll tell you the right thing, but you're going to do it to me."Xu Bing gritted his teeth and slapped Zhou Qingfeng a few times, and said, “Do you want to continue listening?”

“I want to.”The choir does not stop, two-phand.

Xu Bingjiao laughed and scolded a few times and said, “In order to build artillery, Zhao Ze intends to divide the mechanical factory into three parts.”On the one hand is the military production, on the one hand, the steam engine production, and on the other hand, the production of parts.

The construction of ordinary iron is all handed over to the water processing plant to complete.He also plans to take the time to come to Tianjin in person to build a hydropower processing plant here.Stone also intends to build the third phase of steel in Tianjin.”

Scully, hard work...

Xu Bing gritted his teeth and patiently, while excitedly continued: "Our cotton textile industry began to exert force, and the hydraulic spinning machine and hydraulic looms have all increased to a certain number.All the cotton we bought last winter has been woven into cloth.After you knock Tianjin down, this is a market that radiates the whole of North China.

I am now trying to negotiate with the cotton growers of Zhili and Shandong, and I want to buy all their cotton this year at a high price.I also want to develop the textile industry as our focus on light industry, and we must occupy the cotton spinning market in the whole of North China and Central China.Let the weaving of the soil-cloth all bankrupt and let them come to work in our factories.”

“We have more and more manpower at hand.”Xu Bing said excited, feeling excited.She hit Zhou Qingfeng a few times and scolded, “You did it on purpose, didn’t you?”I'm going to pick myself up at this time."

“Continue to speak...”He said, “I like to listen and I like to do it.”

The ice-faced, her eyes were rosy.She continued to beat Zhou Qingfeng, scolding a few "bastards" and said: "Li Shuwei said that you can find a way to find someone to replace him in Shandong, he wants to go back to the Ministry of Agriculture to work."After the beginning of spring farming, his potatoes were grown on the peninsula, and corn and wheat were also planted.But he couldn't be reassured."

"Now a radish and a pit, everyone is not available.Let Li Shuwei's daughter-in-law Fan Waner sit in Shandong, the woman's city is deep, very hot, and a person who can sit on the side of the town."He said, “Since it’s a talent, it’s going to be good.”

Xu Bing laughed and scolded again, “You bastard Hu Tianhu, but you want husband and wife to be separated?”

“Let Li Shuwei find a few more.”Is there anything else?”

“Your salt farm is already all built, and the salt will begin next month.”Offshore fishing has begun again, and this time it will be twice as many vessels than last year.Our meat will be more.

And the nitrows.It is said that Li Shuwei was cornered by the fertilizer thing, and he went crazy to collect large dung to build nitrow fields.The Liaodong Peninsula is equipped with a nitrate origin per 10,000 people.The same is true of Shandong.I heard that Tianjin has a large population, and he planned 20 Nitian factories in one go.So you won’t be short of black gunpowder anymore.

And our two doctors, the medical department of Jinzhou University has begun to recruit several professional medical professional students.The Department of Medicine is also equipped with a drug and equipment factory, and your close guard can have better medical escorts in the future, and there are more emergency drugs.And your sister Joran led a Dan medicine workshop in Tianjin, which is also specializing in the production of affordable drugs.”

Speaking of this, Xu Bing has been girched and his words are incoherent.She could only bite her lip like a silky eye and let Zhou Qingfeng do evil.After more than half an hour, the two of them were washed and slept again.She lay on Zhou Qingfeng's chest and asked, "Did you say anything to me?"

“I . . ?”Zhou Qingfeng put his arm around Xu Bing’s shoulder and whispered, “In addition to training, all I have to do is manage the city.”Those who have been working in the past continue to do it all on a larger scale.Oh, yeah.We need to build a lot of buildings, build a lot of buildings, and building materials become scarce.I ordered the construction of several brick kilns.

I plan to get a coal and iron bureau, under the name of the Ministry of Mining, responsible for coal mine iron ore production.There are many small coal mines in the mountains north of Tianjin, and I have sent people to see Tangshan.The technical capabilities of these mines are very poor, and I intend to rectify them to improve production efficiency.The coal dug out is not only used to make iron, but also to burn bricks.

It is not known that even the most inconspicuous bricks in this year are very expensive, so the houses here are very short.Now more and more people are pouring into Tianjin to divide the fields to find work.Housing became very stressful, so building a house became very urgent.In addition to building a house and building a road, it also takes a lot of manpower.

There is also a concern.After I was cut off, the food of tens of millions of stones in the south would not be shipped every year.There must be a shortage of food in the north, and there will definitely be a terrible wave of refugees in the second half of this year.These people will definitely come to us.

In addition, if you want to develop the cotton spinning industry, I am worried that there is not enough food to eat.I can’t say I can’t let the garrison be restored.In the past, the ship was almost empty when it went south, and I wanted to send our textile cloth to the south in exchange for food.The cotton production in the south is very large, and it can be transported, which is a win-win situation.”

He said, listening to the heavy breathing coming from his side.He looked around and the ice didn’t listen.She just fell asleep by the man’s low voice.Zhou Qingfeng stopped and did not immediately sleep, he just talked about luck, he had to think of the gang.

Hundreds of thousands of people along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal rely on transportation, and now the transportation is cut off, these people are hate the "revolutionary army" into the bones.How to disintegrate and use this force has become a problem for Zhou Qingfeng to face - Wang Kunpeng has penetrated the sieve-like officialdom in Beijing, and it has been learned that Mingting officials have suggested that these hundreds of thousands of people be armed.

Compared with a messy Ming army, the hundreds of thousands of people who are transported are even more cohesive and combative.If it really fights, it will be more troublesome than the Ming Army.There is also a large number of rotten power in the gang.This force, which is naturally reactionary and resists the control of any government, is an absolute factor of instability and must be suppressed.

National issues, a lot of problems!
