With these more than 500,000 taels of gold, the two conditions for system upgrade have all been met.

Jiang Chuan did not hesitate to give the order to start the upgrade.

Moreover, during the system upgrade, the functions of the base are basically not affected.

Jiang Chuan has already sent people to convey information to Di Qing and Hu Zongxian on the front line: in the future, they will equip the front-line army within a month. More advanced than the Japanese Rifled guns.

He suggested that they should focus their efforts on figuring out the number of troops, gangs, and nests of the pirates.

Of course, he just suggested that the specific battle situation should be decided by Hu Zongxian and Di Qing on the spot.

After all, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and if there is a suitable fighter, it is absolutely impossible to wait for the approval of the rear before proceeding. Fighters are fleeting, and they must be decided by the front-line generals.

At this time, Weihaiwei, after tens of thousands of troops were continuously busy, the ruins of the entire Weihaiwei were basically cleaned up, but the city looked dilapidated and sparsely populated.

There were four or five thousand people in Weihaiwei, and there were less than 100 survivors. The situation is extremely miserable.

On the third day after Di Qing arrived in Weihaiwei, the dusty Bai Jinxiu rushed to Weihaiwei with the people from the Black Ice Platform.

On the fourth day, the grain team sent by Hu Zongxian also arrived in Weihaiwei with a large amount of grain and grass.

Weihaiwei, a small city with a small name, has become a huge front-line military camp overnight, full of elite soldiers who are stubborn and stubborn.

Moreover, the sailor also rushed to Weihaiwei with the engineering battalion.

After the engineering battalion got off the ship, it quickly put into the repair and construction of Weihaiwei, and the entire Weihaiwei suddenly jingled into a busy sound.

In addition to repairing the city gates damaged by the Japanese and the city walls destroyed by artillery fire, the engineering battalion also helped the surviving civilians to repair their houses. So that they can start working in peace again.

Hu Zongxian was still on his way to Weihaiwei, while Di Qing ordered the sailors to patrol within a 100-nautical-mile radius of Weihaiwei, and immediately open fire if they found a Japanese pirate.

Today's sailors are already quite large.

Since the completion of the first batch of 4,000 sailors and 30 warships, Egawa ordered the construction of warships to continue.

Today, the sailors have a hundred warships and ten logistics supply ships.

The total strength of the army was more than 20,000 people, and the 100 warships were divided into three detachments of naval divisions. The first detachment consisted of thirty ships, the second detachment consisted of thirty ships, and the third detachment consisted of forty ships, which were led by the Admiral himself. The remaining two detachments each have a deputy general in charge.

The current Admiral of the Navy is Deng Shichang.

Deng Shichang's background is very special, and it is different from the background of other generals.

When Jiang Chuan received the background information of the system, he saw such content: because the number of sailors has reached 10,000, the system will automatically provide an experienced and professional commander for the sailors.

What Jiang Chuan didn't expect was that the commander of the sailor who was automatically rewarded by this system turned out to be the famous patriotic general Deng Shichang, which made him both surprised and excited.

After all, the generals under his current command, although all of them are familiar with land warfare, but for water warfare, there is no doubt that they are not proficient.

If they were to forcibly command the sailors, it would definitely backfire.

Moreover, the navy itself is a very technical branch of the armed forces that requires great technical background.

There is a saying that 100 years of navy, 10 years of army. A strong maritime force does not rely on a few warships alone to form combat effectiveness, but requires a group of experienced naval teams to form real combat effectiveness. And the officer corps, which is clearly experienced, is the key and core of it.

For example, in the previous life, the British Imperial Navy, which had the reputation of dominating the world for two or three hundred years, was like this.

Without a strong navy, the British Empire would not have been able to spread its colonies throughout the country.

To this day, more than 70 countries around the world still have the Queen of England as their head of state. Every four years, more than 70 countries still send people to participate in the Commonwealth Games.

To get back to the point, Jiang Chuan's appearance was greatly reassured, so he completely handed over the naval division to Deng Shichang, and the water operation was under the overall command of Deng Shichang.

When Deng Shichang heard that the main target of this battle in Weihaiwei was the Japanese Invaders, his instinctive hatred for the Japanese Invaders immediately burst out of his heart.

After all, in the history of the previous life, Deng Shichang's death was because he died fighting against the Japanese in the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, so he fought against the Japanese in this life. For Deng Shichang, it is actually a kind of fate.

As for the formation of the water division, Jiang Chuan was completely handed over to Deng Shichang, and he carried out the formation.

Because this operation is considered to be a coordination of land and water, and the overall command is under the full command of Hu Zongxian. However, Hu Zongxian has not yet arrived in Weihaiwei, so Di Qing is temporarily in command.

Of course, Di Qing's so-called command only gave the main task, and the specific orders were still carried out by Deng Shichang under the command of the water division, and Di would not interfere arbitrarily.

When Bai Jinxiu learned that Weihaiwei was attacked by the Japanese invaders, he was first shocked, and then full of anger, and his heart was instantly filled with guilt.

These days, she has been taking the people of Heibingtai to activities in Jiangnan and other places day and night, inquiring about and collecting news about the Japanese invaders, although there has been a lot of progress, but still has not received the news of the Japanese attack on Weihaiwei in advance.

When the tragedy of Weihaiwei happened, she was also deeply enraged, and everyone in the Black Ice Platform was also enraged.

She vowed to find out the traces of this group of pirates and avenge the dead people of Weihaiwei.

So along the way, she rushed to Weihaiwei with the people of Hei Bingtai non-stop, sleeping in the open, and the whole person looked a lot thinner, and her originally fair and delicate face looked a lot haggard.

She knew that Jiang Chuan entrusted herself with such an important yamen of the Black Ice Platform because she trusted herself. And she failed to warn in advance, which made her feel very sorry for Jiang Chuan, so she began to work hard in her heart to find the nest of this group of widows.

It can be said that the entire Qin army, whether it is a general or a soldier, is full of strength and wants to completely exterminate this group of pirates.

After all. The Qin army is now invincible in the world, winning many battles, but he didn't expect to be attacked by a group of would-be pirates who couldn't look down on him before.

Although the Qin army itself did not suffer casualties, for Qingzhou, which had nominally recovered, such a tragedy was tantamount to a slap in the face of hundreds of thousands of Qin army soldiers.

This humiliation caused the anger of the whole army to reach a high level, and they were eager to kill all the pirates at once, and lay their heads in front of the graves of the slain people.
