Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 53
In April of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the Fuliao army's territory covered more than half of the southern Liaoning area, including Guanglu Island in Jinzhou, Fuzhou, and Gaizhou.A new member joined the Liao Army, that is, Liu Xingzuo, the right battalion of the Han Army who originally belonged to the Houjin Army.In order to accommodate Liu Xingzuo, Chu Yun set up the Fifth Infantry Battalion, with Liu Xingzuo as the battalion commander.

However, Liu Xingzuo originally had a large number of people in the right battalion of the Han army. After the battle, there were more than 4000 people, so Chu Yun added most of the troops from the right battalion of the Han army to other infantry battalions.In particular, Mrs. Yang's First Infantry Battalion was the worst. They blocked Amin's Xianglan Banner in Shihe Village and paid a price of five or six hundred deaths.In the original size of a battalion of 800 people, five to 600 people were killed, which is equivalent to the entire battalion being wiped out, and the battalion commander Mrs. Yang also suffered severe injuries in several places.

Liu Xingzuo didn't have any objection to Chu Yun breaking up his troops.According to his words, even if he is only given a small captain, he is willing to serve in the Liao army.And if Liu Xingzuo still brings the original 4000 troops, then who is in charge of the Liao Army?
In addition to the newly established Fifth Infantry Battalion, the Liao Army also established the Sixth Infantry Battalion, mainly based on the troops of Huang Weiyao and Zhao Xiang from the Zuoying of the Han Army who had defected to Chu Yun. Chang Zhao Xiang.Such an arrangement can be regarded as encouraging Hou Jin's generals to surrender.

After the expansion of the territory, more troops were needed to maintain stability, so Chu Yun expanded the cavalry brigade into a cavalry battalion.After defeating the Jurchen Banner Soldiers, Chu Yun captured a lot of war horses, more than enough to set up a cavalry battalion.Of course, there are still many horses to be sent to the artillery battalion, and the artillery battalion also lacks horses to pull the artillery.

"It would be great if there were trucks or motorcycles." Chu Yun thought so when distributing the horses.But without internal combustion engine technology, it really can't be done.

In order to facilitate the organization, Chu Yun expanded the size of each battalion to about 1000 people. In this way, six infantry battalions, one cavalry battalion, and one artillery battalion will reach about 8000 people.Coupled with the guards, transportation teams, and logistics teams, the size of an army of tens of thousands of people is not a problem.And this does not include the patrol team for maintaining law and order.It is just a sudden expansion of the army, and the supply of firearms cannot be guaranteed for a while.The Ordnance Bureau of Jinzhou is working with the smelter to try to fill this huge firearms gap.

"What's the attitude of the people in Fuzhou and Gaizhou? Have the gentry spit out the acquired land?" Chu Yun was still sitting in Gaizhou City in order to prevent the Jin soldiers from suddenly going south.

"The villagers heard that they can contract farmland to plant, and we will also provide seeds and planting technology. The tax is only one-tenth. They even helped us drive away the squires... As for the squires, many of them are reluctant. However, we have already found a way to move them to the city. For urban residents, since our wages and taxes are far better than those of Jin people, they basically have a positive attitude towards the promotion of our regulations.” Follow Chu Yun Chen Ting, who came to Gaizhou, said.

"Well, that's good. People's hearts are very important to our governance. The inspection team usually not only catches petty theft, but also cares about people's livelihood." Chu Yun is still very satisfied with Chen Ting's work.

Chen Ting is also very happy to work for Chu Yun. After all, he was frustrated in Jinzhou Wei before and thought that his lifelong career would come to an end. It was not until he met Chu Yun that he got a chance to display his talents.

"However, we need to adjust our industry." Chu Yun said.

"Oh? How do you want to adjust? Fuzhou and Gaizhou should be like Jinzhou, building smelters, flour mills and other factories?" Chen Ting asked.

"Factories need to be built, but we can't copy everything from Jinzhou, and the factories in Jinzhou also need to be adjusted," Chu Yun said.

"It is understandable for Fuzhou and Gaizhou to set up factories under their subordinates, but Jinzhou's current factories are thriving, so why do they need to make adjustments?" Chen Ting asked puzzled.

"There is a concept called industrial division of labor. Establishing corresponding industries in places with corresponding resources can reduce our costs. The mining industry in Gaizhou is relatively developed, so we can move the headquarters of Jinzhouwei's mining factory here , Gaizhou mainly develops the mining industry. Jinzhouwei is close to the sea and has a good harbor, which is suitable for the development of light industries such as trade, textiles, and flour. As for Fuzhou, it can develop other industries that complement Jinzhou and Gaizhou. In this way Firstly, each city will perform its own duties to gain more benefits for our Liao army," Chu Yun explained.

Chen Ting's eyes became brighter the more he listened, and after following Chu Yun for a long time, they also began to adapt to this kind of industrial thinking, and quickly integrated it: "I will ask people to draw up a blueprint for the deployment of factories in each city according to what the military leader said. Let the military master approve it."

"Mr. Chen has worked hard."

"Your Excellency is in dire straits to save the people in southern Liaoning, and it is right to go through fire and water for your lord," Chen Ting said.

After Chen Ting left, Chu Yun turned on the "Industrial Revolution" system. In the "Industrial Revolution" system, there is a technology that Chu Yun has coveted for a long time - under the "traffic construction" technology tree, it belongs to the "steam locomotive" technology in the early 19th century. The "steam locomotive" technology requires 3000 civilization points, and it is currently the most expensive technology among the technologies that Chu Yun wants to point out.

After regaining Fuzhou and Gaizhou, and winning more with less, after long-term accumulation, Chu Yun managed to accumulate 3000 civilization points. No one in this world can understand the significance of the "steam locomotive" technology better than Chu Yun.If the steam locomotive is manufactured, as long as you have money, you will soon see iron dragons galloping on the land of southern Liaoning.

"Are you in the system? I want to light up the steam locomotive technology." Chu Yun said silently in his heart.

"The host has chosen the 'steam locomotive' technology, and the available civilization points have decreased... There is an error in the system. You need to light up the basic science of the 18th century before you can light up the foundation of the 19th century. Please choose to light up other industries in the 18th century Technology or basic science." The system's cold voice sounded.

Fuck, the meaning of the original basic science setting is here!Chu Yun suddenly realized.No wonder he always felt that he had no knowledge of basic sciences such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. It turned out that he could only illuminate the science and technology of the 18th century after he had illuminated the basic sciences of the 19th century.

So why can I get the technology of the 18th century without some basic science?Chu Yun thought about it, probably in the 18th century and before the 18th century, basic science had little impact on the application of science and technology.

"In this case, I will spend 50 civilization points to light up the galleon sailing technology, and 500 civilization points to light up the 18th century navigation technology." Since the steam locomotive technology will not come out in a short time, then let's start with marine technology, the 18th century should be enough.
