Fang Nan did not pay much attention to the situation of literati and scholars in Guangzhou, their importance was not high, and there were still many things that needed attention under the rule of the People's Army.

At present, there are three places that Fang Nan pays the most attention to, namely military, people's livelihood, and industry.

There is no doubt that under the rule of the People's Army, under the circumstance that more than 100,000 Ming troops are gathered on three sides, and more Ming troops will gather in the future, the military is always the most important, and if the military strength is not improved, the People's Army is very likely to be driven out of the sea by the Ming Army in the end.

The strength of the KPA is limited by the fact that the population cannot be increased indefinitely under the rule of the KPA, and the current distance is close to the limit, and any more will affect the people's livelihood.

Of course, when the situation is not favorable to the KPA, the KPA has no choice but to forcibly recruit young and strong people to expand the size of the KPA.

Under the circumstance that the KPA cannot increase its strength indefinitely, there are two main ways for the KPA to enhance its strength, one is to equip itself with more muskets, artillery, and grenades, and the other is to train the units of the cold weapon unit to enhance the combat effectiveness of the recruits.

The latter training is good to say, when there is no war with the Ming army, the main task of the recruits is training, but the former involves industrial development.

In the past three months, the production of tiger head guns has reached more than 700 pieces, and according to the Ministry of Industry's estimates, the production of tiger head guns in April will exceed 800 pieces.

With the production of 800 tiger head guns a month, two infantry battalions can be formed, which can effectively improve the strength of the people's army.

The production of artillery and grenades has increased to a certain extent, and both can effectively increase the strength of the people's army.

However, if you want to continue to rapidly increase the production of muskets, artillery and grenades, you still have to look at industrial development.

After the military, people's livelihood is put in second place, and at present, there is not much that the People's Army can do for the people.

After the People's Army occupied the new territory, it raided the big families that committed evil, divided the land among the common people, and encircled and suppressed the bandits and bandits.

The big landlords bullied the common people, and the bandits and bandits also bullied the common people, and under their bullying, the lives of the common people were miserable, and the people's army raided the big landlords and encircled and suppressed the bandits, and the common people applauded.

However, what makes the people most happy is the division of land, there are very few people who have fields, and even fewer people can support their families by planting their own fields, and the biggest dream of many people is to have a few acres of land, and this dream is seen by the People's Army, so the People's Army quickly won the hearts of the people.

In the eyes of these low-level people, as long as there are a few acres of farmland, the grain produced on the farmland can feed the family, this is a good life, and the standard is very, very low.

The standard of the common people is low, but the standard set by Fang Nan is not low, it is not enough to eat, but also to eat meat, to be able to wear a new set of clothes every year, the house is impermeable to wind and rain, and can be treated when sick.

However, it is very difficult to achieve this standard, and the biggest difficulty lies in the limitations of the times.

For example, when it comes to getting sick and curing diseases, the people at the bottom can't afford to be sick at all, and they can only endure it when they are sick, even if they are medium-sized, once the family is seriously ill, it is possible to empty the family's wealth in order to see a doctor.

In order to reduce the difficulty of seeing a doctor, on the one hand, it is necessary to increase the number of doctors, and on the other hand, it is also necessary to increase the income of the people.

It takes too long for an apprentice in traditional medicine to grow up to be independent in treating patients, a doctor can't train too many apprentices at once, and there are very few apprentices who can read and write.

The only way to expand the number of doctors is to increase the number of graduates in three years of free education, and then to set up a medical hall with experienced doctors as teachers, so that one teacher can teach more students, and the number of doctors will increase greatly if it takes some time.

In addition, modern medicine is also a very good direction of development, but the People's Army cannot develop modern medicine in a short period of time, and this can only be done slowly.

Difficult problems are solved little by little, simple and critical problems must be solved first, problems related to farming are undoubtedly closely related to the common people, floods, droughts and these natural disasters often occur, and the best way to deal with floods and droughts is to build water conservancy facilities on a large scale.

The People's Army fought so many battles with the Ming Army, captured so many Ming soldiers, some of the Ming soldiers were probationed to join the People's Army, and more Ming soldiers were punished as coolies to accept labor reform.

The People's Army occupied most of Guangdong, raided many large households, and arrested many ruffians/hooligans, and those who committed too many crimes were directly executed, and the rest were punished as coolies.

There are still many places that need coolies under the rule of the People's Army, and things such as building roads, mining, and building water conservancy facilities are all things that coolies have to do.

The construction of water conservancy facilities is beneficial to the people, and the people in the vicinity will come to help when they see the People's Army building water conservancy facilities, and they will come to help when they are free.

The common people are not stupid, they know the importance of water conservancy facilities to them, they can quickly drain water during floods, and there are places to get water to irrigate the fields during droughts, and it would be even better if water conservancy facilities could be built quickly and successfully.

Being able to let the people have enough to eat and no one starves to death is the first step to develop people's livelihood, and then let the people become "rich" step by step.

Industry is placed in the third place, in fact, industry, like people's livelihood, is limited by this era and can only develop slowly.

The most important point of the industrial revolution is the appearance of the steam engine, but for the time being, the People's Army has not begun to study the steam engine, the hydraulic machine tool has been tried in the Foshan Arsenal, the initial hydraulic machine tool has a lot of improvements, and so on until the project team to improve the hydraulic machine tool, basically until the second half of this year, the project team will begin to study the steam engine.

For the People's Army, the number of craftsmen is naturally as much as possible, but the number of craftsmen is limited, and it is impossible to put them in the arsenal to create firearms and cold weapons for the People's Army.

It is foreseeable that with the addition of more hydraulic machine tools to the Foshan Arsenal, the output of muskets can be rapidly increased, and at that time, the firearms unit of the People's Army will be expanded by at least one regiment in a month, and the strength of the People's Army will be rapidly improved.

At that time, the People's Army will not be worried about the Ming Army, which has more troops, and it will not be a problem to resist the Ming Army, and the People's Army can choose to send a large army to capture more territory at a certain point in its development, and complete the goal of overthrowing the Ming Dynasty step by step.
