In order to complete the China Star Project, the Chinese Empire must build a powerful armed force, an armed force strong enough to confront the whole world. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Of course, in order to build a strong armed force, it must be matched with sufficient industrial strength, otherwise the country will be dragged down, and even if all enemies are defeated, the country will eventually fall into civil strife.

Therefore, before the empire blows the clarion call for all-out war, the empire must develop in an all-round way, so that the foundation of the empire will become stronger and stronger, and it can support a world-class war, but the development of the empire's military power is still the top priority.

The military (armed forces) of the empire include the army, navy, air force, and armed police, the army, navy, and air force are mainly responsible for resisting foreign enemies or launching foreign wars, while the armed police are mainly responsible for maintaining domestic security.

The army, navy, air force, and armed police are approximately 600,000, 50,000, 30,000, and 300,000 respectively. The total number of military forces is about one million, which is a very large number, basically ranking among the top three in the world, but one million soldiers is only a very small number in front of the total population of 460 million, and the empire must maintain a large enough military force to cope with future changes.

Armed police:

At present, the total number of armed police officers in the three departments of land police, coast guard, and air police is about 300,000, because the responsibilities of the armed police and the army are somewhat different, so their equipment and the army are also different, the army is mostly equipped with light weapons, basically not equipped with heavy artillery, the coast guard only has a faster speed of less than 1,000 tons, and the air police is not much different from the air force.

However, the number of armed police is still a bit small, based on the current population of the empire, the number of armed police forces needs to be expanded to at least 1 million, in order to maintain domestic security with the cooperation of the public security police, in the "Second Five-Year Plan", the empire will double the number of armed police on the basis of 300,000, to 600,000.

Army:

The Army is an empire. The part with the largest number of military forces accounts for more than 60 percent of the total number of military forces, which is 600,000, but we must not forget that the empire has a mainland area of 13.84 million square kilometers and colonies of 10.5 million square kilometers.

Don't look at Russia now being beaten so badly by the empire, in fact, it has not hurt the foundation of Russia, the empire was able to occupy a large area of Russia, on the one hand, it was the imperial air force suppression and advanced individual weapons, on the other hand, Russia is decaying, the old tsar is terminally ill, and the Russian aristocracy has no scruples to gather wealth, which has led to today's situation.

If the Empire's air superiority is gone, Russia will be ready to play again.

In the "First Five-Year Plan", the army was expanded from less than 300,000 to 600,000, and in the "Second Five-Year Plan", the empire also doubled the size of the army to 1.2 million, which is still an insignificant number for a total population of 460 million.

Whether it is the "First Five-Year Plan" or the "Second Five-Year Plan," the expansion of the armed forces is an important part, and another important part is to equip the army with advanced weapons.

The standard rifles equipped by the army will remain unchanged, and the Chinese Type 1 rifle will be actually a relatively advanced rifle in the next few decades, and at least in 10 years, the army will not replace the standard rifle, but it will add a part to the rifle -- a grenade launcher, and the army will be equipped with two to three grenade launchers per squad.

Then there is a large-scale installation of automatic weapons, Xinghua first year light machine gun, Xinghua first year submachine gun and heavy rain machine gun, originally a company of the army is equipped with two heavy machine guns, now add a heavy machine gun, to reach one per platoon, one light machine gun per squad, and submachine guns are equipped with two per squad, mostly used by squad leaders and deputy squad leaders, and sharpshooters who pass the examination will be issued with sniper rifles with optical sights.

Mortars used at the platoon level will also be replaced with lighter 60mm mortars of the Xinghua Yuannian type, and the revolvers in the hands of officers will also be replaced with falcon pistols that are more suitable for use on the battlefield.

In addition, the army artillery construction, in the "Second Five-Year Plan", the nine army corps will begin to establish an artillery division to provide artillery support for the army in medium-sized and large-scale wars.

Such a large-scale expansion of the army, refitting needs a large amount of financial support, the empire's military expenditure has always been borne by the royal family, although the income of the royal comptoir is higher than the imperial financial revenue, but for a time can not afford such a huge military expenditure, also, the expansion and redressing do not need to be completed in a short period of time, but divided into five years or even more time to complete, the army's weapons and equipment do not need to be too "terrifying", as long as there is a certain suppression of the army of Western countries.

Air force:

The Empire's Air Force is the world's first air force, after the Empire's Air Force showed its great power, countries around the world began to build air forces, even if there is no airship, the air force shelf must be pulled out first, and some countries even incorporate hot air balloons into the air force.

At the end of the five years of Xinghua, the air forces of some countries also entered service with ultra-small airships, which have very little load, relatively low flight altitude, and relatively slow flight speed, which is simply garbage compared with the imperial airships.

After the end of the "First Five-Year Plan", the Imperial Air Force has three types of airships: transport airships, bombing airships, and armed airships, and there are four types of airships according to the size of the airships, namely the Kunpeng-6 light airship, the Kunpeng-7 medium airship, the Kunpeng-8 heavy airship, and the Kunpeng-9 super airship, a total of 178 ships, of which there is only one Kunpeng-9 super airship, and the remaining airships are the Kunpeng-7 medium airship, with as many as 91 ships, while the number of Kunpeng-6 light airships and Kunpeng-8 heavy airships is about the same.

In the past five years, the empire has built four airship factories on top of the original airship factory, with an average airship factory capable of building five Kunpeng-6 light airships or three Kunpeng-7 medium airships or one semi-Kunpeng-8 heavy airship every three months, and one Kunpeng-9 supership can be built in as many as seven months.

At present, most of all the airships in the empire belong to the air force, and a small part belong to the air police.

The Air Force also has a brigade-level paratroop unit, which can play a key role at certain times, and in the "Second Five-Year Plan," the paratrooper brigade will be expanded into a paratrooper division, and the paratrooper unit will be equipped with a large number of light weapons and automatic weapons, and some Xinghua Yuannian 60-mm mortars.
