Liu Juntao led his troops all the way south, and made rapid progress along the way without any delay.

Although there have been twists and turns in this visit to Beijing, all the forces in the DPRK and China are competing with each other, and the civilian forces in the DPRK and China are secretly stumbling on Liu Juntao, but Liu Juntao has not come in vain, not to mention the hundreds of talents brought back to Shandong, these people will become the foundation for the great development of Shandong Town in the future.

There are also all kinds of firearms and armaments collected by Liu Juntao from the arsenal of the capital and other places, these firearms and armaments may not be as well-equipped as Shandong Town, but there are also some whimsical ideas, and some are also very practical, even if the workmanship is not excellent, but the victory is powerful, and it will be of great use on the battlefield.

Among the firearms collected by Liu Juntao, in addition to more than a dozen guns of various types used for the reference of the military department, there were also three artillery pieces.

Although these three guns are all improved bowl-mouth guns, compared with the bowl-mouth guns commonly equipped by the Ming army, the gun carriages of these three guns are very flexible.

On the base of the gun carriage, a sturdy runner was installed, which allowed the heavy gun body to turn from side to side in order to aim at the target.

At the same time, between the base and the gun body, the craftsmen of the capital also added a very flexible hinge, and the part of the hinge was also engraved with calipers, and the gunner could use a special wedge to drive into it, so as to raise the muzzle too high and lower the muzzle.

In this way, all three guns can be aimed left and right, up and down at will, instead of having to move heavy guns to aim at the target, as ordinary guns do.

In the future, the artillery mounted on this flexible artillery mount can be fired at will, and a lot of time can be saved when changing targets and aiming, especially when firing at enemy artillery, Liu Juntao's artillery can occupy a great advantage!

In addition, Liu Juntao also brought back more than a dozen bundles of large rockets, although these rockets are not as diverse and long-range as they were in the late Ming Dynasty, they are also well-designed and very reliable in principle.

After Liu Juntao was ready to return to Jinan, he immediately asked the military department to develop and improve these large rockets, and it was best to determine a few standard models, and then they could be installed in the whole army.

Liu Juntao plans to equip all these large rockets in the infantry in the future, not in the artillery team.

Liu Juntao's strategic positioning of these large rockets is "infantry support weapons", which is used to supplement the lack of firepower of infantry birds, after all, at this time, the birds are not able to completely suppress the strong bows and crossbows, especially in the face of the nomads' strong bows and fast horses, there is still a lack of firepower.

Of course, before Liu Juntao went north to the capital, he had already ordered the military department to carry out research and development in this area, in addition to large rockets, Liu Juntao was also ready to equip the infantry such as bird gunners with other fire support weapons, such as burst firearms, portable artillery, and so on.

In the end, Liu Juntao also tried his best to get a magic gun truck from the Gyeonggi garrison, which was a big killer.

This kind of god machine gun truck is like the Ming version of "Katyusha", each loaded rocket has a "warhead" at the head, which is filled with gunpowder, refined oil and other materials, a god machine gun car can launch 20 rockets at a time, this is still a relatively small gun truck.

According to Xu Wei, the deputy general of the Fengtai battalion, the Shenji battalion is also equipped with a more powerful artillery vehicle, which can launch 300 rockets at a time, which can be described as powerful and has an extremely long range!

After these rockets are launched, they can not only explode among the enemy troops, killing and injuring the surrounding enemy troops, but also the oil refined in them will burn homeopathically, and all the enemy troops contaminated with these oil extracts will fall into the sea of fire, and they will not be extinguished at all!

Such a sharp weapon, exactly what Liu Juntao needs, this kind of magic machine gun truck is not only huge, long range, but also all of them take the "magazine" loading method, every time a round is fired, the gunner will unload the rocket rack that has been launched on the gun truck, and directly press another rack full of rockets, you can shoot directly, very quickly!

Liu Juntao had already thought that in the future, after this kind of divine machine gun truck was equipped with the whole army, it would be installed in the artillery teams of various departments.

When the officers and men of the Tiance Army faced the enemy, they first used sophisticated artillery to carry out long-range bombardment, and when the enemy rushed to a medium-range distance, then there was an overwhelming fierce blow from the Shenji artillery truck and countless large rockets.

In the end, countless elite birdmen can start firing volleys to completely crush the enemy!

Liu Juntao is confident that he will crush all enemies with this tactic, even if the enemy army rushes to the front of the military formation, it must be the end of the crossbow, and the enemy army is greeted by earth-shattering thunder and a bright bayonet array!

This is not counting the various new firearms that Liu Juntao ordered the military department to develop, and now, according to Liu Juntao's instructions, the military department's research and development department has established more than 30 projects and is carrying out research and development at the same time.

Among the more than 30 projects, except for a small part of the improvement of existing equipment and the research and development of logistics equipment for the army, the vast majority of research and development are firearms with high power and firepower!

Sometimes, Liu Juntao is also secretly self-deprecating, feeling that he is like JFJ in later generations, he is already "in the late stage of lack of firepower phobia", and it is hopeless!

Ten days later, Liu Juntao led the army to Jinan Fucheng, Guo Muying and Hu Dexing led Lan Siqi, Minister of the Central Committee, Xiang Qun, Minister of the Military Department, Tang Yu, Minister of Commerce, Guo Yongzhong, Minister of Civil Affairs, Liu Zi'an, Minister of Intelligence, Zhang Yuqing, Minister of Praise and Painting, and other shogunate ministers, as well as various ministries and ministers, a total of 30 people, greeted Liu Juntao and the soldiers of the army outside the north gate of Jinan Fucheng.

In addition, many people in Jinan City also came to watch, and many people from the left also came in advance when they heard the news.

However, Gu Yi, the political envoy of Shandong, Li Chengming, the governor of Shandong, and Zhu Qiaozuo, the envoy of Shandong, in the city of Jinan, complained of illness together, and the three of them only sent their officials to greet them, and did not show up.

Liu Juntao didn't care about this, after all, he and Gu Yi, the political envoy of Shandong, Li Chengming, the governor of Shandong, and Zhu Qiaozuo, the envoy of Shandong, were not subordinate to each other, at least for now, there was still no affiliation, and it didn't matter if they came or not.

But Liu Juntao also understood in his heart that the three of them acted like this, I am afraid that they were also influenced by the meaning of those bigwigs in the DPRK and China, and they wanted to give themselves a dismount.

For this kind of small action, Liu Juntao also smiled slightly, and didn't pay attention to it at all.

After Liu Juntao and everyone greeted each other, he entered the city with everyone, and after returning to the General Soldier's Mansion, Guo Muying brought his two sons to see Liu Juntao, and then returned to the inner house.

Liu Juntao began to discuss with Hu Dexing and various departments of the shogunate.

Liu Juntao first informed everyone of the process of reorganizing the army in the capital during this time, and then began to deploy specific things.

First of all, Liu Juntao handed over all the firearms and equipment brought back this time to Xiang Qun, minister of the military department.

"Minister Xiang, the military department must develop these firearms and equipment as soon as possible, and the equipment that has already been approved must be completed as soon as possible. Among these firearms and equipment, large rockets, divine machine artillery vehicles, and new-type artillery carriages must be successfully developed in the shortest possible time. Remember! We must spare no manpower and no cost! ”

Xiang Qun and Yang Liben, the director of the R&D Department of the Ministry of Military Affairs, both hugged their fists to receive their orders, and in addition to the excitement on their faces, there was also a trace of excitement.

At the same time, Liu Juntao also said to Zhang Baigui, the director of the Military Preparedness Division: "Zhang Sicheng, once the R&D Department is successfully developed, the Military Preparedness Department will realize the mass production of new equipment in the shortest possible time!" In this regard, the Armament Division should be prepared as soon as possible.

Although Zhang Baigui is an old man in Yushan Town, he is obsessed with technology, and although he is still Si Cheng, he is still full of energy.

At this time, Zhang Baigui said with a smile: "Order!" Rest assured, after going back today, I will mobilize manpower and materials, as long as the new technology and new drawings arrive, several military bureaus under our military garrison department can be fully put into production! ”

"Good!"

Then, Liu Juntao also instructed Tang Yu that he must prepare money and food in advance, how much the R&D Department and the Military Armament Department need, and the Ministry of Commerce must support him unconditionally, asking for money for money, and food for food!

Tang Yu also agreed.
