The garden of the back house of Zhenfu Mansion, under the wind and sunshine, the grass and trees are related, and the cicadas are used to it.

Schrödinger, the gray-spotted cat squatting on the flower bed, was a little puzzled and unwilling with blue-gray eyes, staring sideways at the sleeping baby in the rattan cradle.

After all, this used to be its special device, and although it was put in it by a girl and shaken as a doll toy, it was always a little reluctant to escape.

Then it lowered its body, sniffed lightly with its fleshy nose, and shook its beard with the milky face of the little one, and then flicked the edge of the swaddling cloth with its fleshy paws, and slowly lay on its side to the baby's side, making some kind of snoring vibration.

With the familiar breath in the wind, the beard fluttered slightly, and he actually squinted and fell asleep with such peace of mind and comfort, except for the big fluffy tail that was dragged outside the basket and swayed occasionally, like another baby squeezed in the cradle.

This scene made me, who was sitting on the side reading the paperwork, couldn't help but smile slightly.

As a price for getting used to the new members of the family, it will occasionally take a newly caught half-dead sparrow, or a small mouse, or a lizard, or even a small fish caught in the pond, and secretly put it next to the baby's cradle.

It seems that this little thing does not seem to have the ability to hunt to feed herself, and that she has the obligation and instinct to feed her.

However, Mei Mei, who was scared to take care of the baby, was shocked and had to frown and carefully pick up and throw away with tongs and branches. Otherwise, Schrödinger will see it and come back on the spot, as if he is playing a game.

Of course, except for Schrödinger, several women in the back house expressed some kind of heart and attitude towards this unexpected little life in their own ways.

For example, the straw grasshopper and colored knots hanging above the cradle are toys contributed by little Gaga; As a swaddling silk pad, it is cut out of his own silk by holding his head and squatting;

The small clothes on the baby's body are the handiwork of Mei Mei; Even the three coins have an extra daily task, carrying the basket containing the child every day, strolling around the yard and basking in the sun.

And I, am I in a spare room in the back garden? Let people raise a few cows and goats, and milk them every day to drink with the whole family.

Thinking of this, I turned my attention back to the paperwork,

When the troop ceiling is suppressed and weakened, it can only be compensated and strengthened elsewhere.

In addition to the expansion of the second and third lines and the establishment of reserve forces in Chencang, there are also multi-handed preparations for improving combat effectiveness in disguised form, such as in the construction of military equipment and the quality of the army.

Fortunately, during this period of time, except for the low- and medium-intensity local conflicts in the area of Bo Fencheng at the mouth of the Yalu River, there was no battle to fight around Huaidong, and even the enemy in the west who was mainly facing the right side was in the process of shrinking back with all his might, and he was eager to move farther away from the Huaidong front.

Therefore, the production capacity accumulated by Huaidong in the primary chemical industry and munitions can be more effectively concentrated and put into the design, improvement and expansion of production of the corresponding series of guns and fire and thunder bombs that have shown sufficient potential and development prospects in a series of Andong battles.

Therefore, after the initial completion of the equipment renewal for the purpose of strengthening firepower, the grenadier sequence under the command of Huaidong has reached the scale of 26 regiments, with nearly 9,000 personnel.

They were all selected from various departments, and each of them had several combat experience, and each person carried them with special hangers, six fire and thunder bombs or ten smaller explosive bombs, as well as a revolver and the corresponding fixed ammunition box, as the basic equipment.

In this way, it can be used as a general firepower suppression of the fast gun team, and it can also be used to drop bombs at close range, which can be regarded as a kind of offensive and defensive reinforced firepower in the ordinary gunning establishment.

In this way, of the twenty-one battalions of the remaining two armies, each of the main battalions could be equipped with at least one regiment of grenadiers; The same group also has at least one grenadier under the same standard mixed city, and the team is equipped with a fire grenadier. By analogy all the way to the smallest Shiwu, although there is no exclusive grenadier, it is also distributed with short-barreled beads and a number of fire and thunder bullets in the long term.

When it came to the proportion of the garrison battalion under the name of the Qingzhou Garrison Army, it was reduced to a team of grenadiers, and there was no number of old grenadiers.

However, it also played the role of the most experienced and experienced backbone force, so that the firearms of the garrison battalion also reached an average of more than 60 percent.

At the same time, a large number of old and old-fashioned firearms that have been refurbished and renovated are sold to those related households of friendly forces through secret channels in the army, and the corresponding materials and populations are returned;

The remaining miscellaneous goods were conditionally distributed to the garrison regiments in various localities, and at least one-third of them were turned into variegated firearms, instead of basic cold weapons.

Then the new constraints and bottlenecks of the Huaidong army became the production capacity of gunpowder and gun accessories, and in the same way, the combat radius and duration were also determined by the corresponding accumulation of production capacity and inventory.

However, compared with the relatively single traditional long-range killing capabilities such as bows and arrows in the past, it still has incomparable advantages in terms of logistics cost efficiency;

Under the same individual carrying weight, two pots of fifty arrows may not have the opportunity to shoot yet, and the sore hands and arms have increased and the accuracy and strength have been greatly lost;

However, the same amount of firecracker medicine can be used to continuously hit hundreds of rounds under the cover of the formation and intensive suppression, and only consume even and less strength, and even have the residual strength of hand-to-hand combat and white-bladed counter-charge.

Compared with the traditional long-range single arms that let the enemy get close and release ducks, it is much more effective and effective, and under the operation of the Huaidong system, the cost and cycle of training and equipment are not necessarily inferior to the traditional bow and crossbow arms, but more inexpensive.

Therefore, the Huaidong Army, which is inherited from the left wing of the predecessor New Army, has a reputation of "being good at defending the first place in field battles", not really lacking active aggression, but because in the vast majority of cases, it is facing an enemy with an advantage.

Therefore, they are also accustomed to the typical defensive counterattack tactics of launching a counterattack against the weakened enemy army with three drums and a lower cost after exhausting the enemy's sharpness and changing the balance of forces with a rotational defensive posture with the support of strong formations and improvised fortifications.

And the few battlefields and patterns in which our army has local superiority are almost always advanced by tight and orderly firepower, and basically end with the enemy's rapid snowballing collapse or escape.

And on the other hand,

With the passage of time, a steady stream of food and grass materials, armor personnel; It arrived at the mouth of the Huai River by sea, and then transferred to the territory of Sizhou and requisitioned the local people, and successively transported to the front of Qi County in Suzhou.

There were even several batches of firearms made in the Dynasties, including a thick double-wielding hand cannon and a large-caliber and heavy-barreled standard firearm.

At least on the surface, after the investment and attention paid to firearms by the dynasty over the years, the output and quality have increased significantly.

However, in the comparison of some key specific details, it is still too simple and extensive, but it is subject to the unruly method of processing technology and hidden defects in design.

But in any case, after the things that belong to the dynasty are gradually in place; Although the main officer has not yet arrived, as the two strong brigades of the Huainan camp, at the request of Wang Gui, who is the deputy envoy of the special army, he began to carry out various drills and run-ins with the former military headquarters on the spot to communicate with the former military department, coordinate in wartime, and transfer and transfer.

Therefore, in Suzhou, there is a group of people who are boiling and the military horses are neighing, and they are busy making a hot scene.

As a neighboring garrison, under my instruction, it also took the initiative to provide corresponding assistance and convenience, which can be regarded as a kind of good fate and investment expectation.

After all, Wang Gui's department is still separated from me, and from the structure of the army, training equipment, and logistics system, it is all fully connected with my Huaidong.

Although, the soldiers assigned to Wang Gui's command this time are actually focused and targeted;

For example, they are mainly from the remnants of the military horses of the national dynasty gathered in the northern battlefield, and at the same time, they are deeply involved and related to the south, and they are not very willing to settle in Huaidong, so they are also a minority of backward elements in the Huaidong system.
