In Xi'an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, the Chinese Heavenly Army preparing for the Eastern Expedition gathered here, after rectification, a total of six divisions and two armies, the division commanders were Dai Beibei, Dong Fuxiang, Qiu Yuancai, Lan Chengchun, Liang Chengchun, Lan Dashun, the first army Luoyang, the second army Zeng Shihe, and another special operations unit, an independent brigade, the brigade commander Feng Zhuhuo,

Judging from the establishment of the troops, the generals of the former Taiping Heavenly ** occupied the position of four division commanders, which can be described as a heavy weapon, and all the former Taiping Heavenly Kingdom generals were very satisfied at this point.

The troops are composed of the Huaxia Tian** troops from Sichuan, the original Taiping Army troops, the Han military and civilian regiments in Shaanxi, and the Hui troops who surrendered in Shaanxi and Gansu.

Because Lan Chengchun's troops, in the process of eliminating the two horses, were brave and good at fighting, especially hard-fighting, after the war, they were commended, and when replenishing soldiers, priority was given to them, and as a de facto vanguard division, in terms of weapons and equipment, they also focused on taking care of,

Luo Yang's various fair practices made all the officers very satisfied, especially the former Taiping Army generals, who all thought that they had found a good leader and vowed to fight to the end for the cause of the Huaxia Heavenly Kingdom.

Dai Beibei is a newly promoted general, because of the merits of the special operations unit, he became a general of Luoyang's cronies, and Feng Zhuhuo, who is also his cronies and officers, and now he has been transferred to a special operations unit, which is also a manifestation of attention, a brigade of the special operations unit, equivalent to the status of a division, all kinds of special operations equipment, all cavalry, etc., the officers and soldiers have a new look,

Liu Jiahui, Zhao Yu, Ai Halun, Jiang Zhi, this is the cronies and generals of the headquarters under Luo Yang's personal command, the troops directly under the headquarters are four brigades, these people are Luo Yang's old brothers, although he intends to train these people to be division commanders, however, these people would rather work and run errands under his nose, the strength of a command is stronger than a division, an ordinary division, there are two brigades, a mixed regiment, including an artillery battalion, engineer battalion (mainly digging fortifications, building bridges, digging siege tunnels, And so on) transport battalions, etc., Luoyang's own headquarters has two infantry brigades, a cavalry brigade, and a special task force (including an artillery regiment, a transport regiment, and a military industrial regiment) The strength is very strong.

Six divisions, one independent brigade, and one integrated command, equivalent to eight divisions, with a total strength of 100,000 people,

When it was time to go on the expedition, after repeated consideration, Luo Yang adjusted his troops, changed Qiu Yuancai's division and Dong Fuxiang's division to a cavalry division, and the personnel were reduced, but the mobility was greatly enhanced, and it became the two fists of Luoyang's army to attack the Manchu defense network.

In the course of three months, on the one hand, there was the adjustment of personnel, replenishment, and transportation of materials, as well as the resistance and strikes against the disturbance of the Qing army, the supply of materials from the Sichuan area, and more the development of weapons and ammunition.

In Shaanxi, some of the personnel of the former Sichuan military industrial enterprises were transferred to the city of Xi'an, a modern weapons research institute was established, and all kinds of talents were collected, whether you are the Huaxia Army, the Taiping Army, the former Qing Army, or ordinary people, as long as you are smart, good at thinking, and know how to make craftsmen, they are all hired, and they have passed several examinations, and more than 500 people have been recruited, and in accordance with Luoyang's requirements, the development of new rifles, machine guns, especially the development of weapons such as large artillery and mortars, and naturally, there is also the development of paragliders, and even the development of aircraft, etc.,

Luo Yang attaches great importance to the newly established military industrial enterprises, and even when he was about to go on the Eastern Expedition, in order to protect the safety of the arsenal, he specially changed the establishment, and left Zeng Shihe, the commander of the Second Army, as the general person in charge of the arsenal, and also left Jiang Zhi's infantry brigade to form a professional arsenal defense unit.

At the end of 1863, in Xi'an City, the original location of the city, that is, the barracks of the Manchurian Eight Banners garrison, built a new Huaxia Tian** arsenal, Luo Yang led all the officers above the regiment commander, to celebrate, firecrackers, gongs and drums, very lively, all the employees of the arsenal, were wearing a big red flower on their chests, introduced as guests,

Zeng Shihe is also the director of the arsenal, he is wearing the general costume of the Chinese Heavenly Kingdom, beaming with joy,

The short-lived celebration ceremony has been spread in Xi'an City, becoming a beautiful talk in the closed era.

Luoyang convened all the staff meetings, announced the establishment of the first key professional military enterprise in the Huaxia Heavenly Kingdom, and also announced the focus of research and development, and encouraged everyone to provide the most superior weapons and ammunition for the front-line soldiers in the shortest possible time.

"Weapons determine tactics, tactics determine strategy, this is the principle of military force, the discovery of any kind of advanced weapons, will greatly change all relevant military fields, it can be said that our army from the Battle of the Dadu River, all the success, all the success, from the flying thunder cannon this simple invention and creation, in the future, our army's victory, must also continue this way, because the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty's decadent regime, the barbaric and shameless powers to overthrow, all need special methods, because their weapons and equipment have been changing with each passing day."

When encouraging officers and soldiers and military industrial personnel, Luo Yang explained the history of the development of modern weapons and equipment, although all he knows is a batch of Mao, even if he chats on the modern military network, it may be sprayed black, and there are many mistakes, but in this era, in this place, he is a god-like existence,

He explained the equipment of the Manchu army, the weapons and equipment of the great powers, especially the battle of Tongzhou Bali Bridge, the weapon superiority of the British and French coalition forces, the dozens of casualties of the coalition army, and the collapse of the 30,000 elites of the Qing army, which caused everyone's shock, all of which were tightly sealed by the Manchu regime and unknown to ordinary people.

"Ah, King Rui knows so much."

"What do you understand, King Rui is a god."

"Yes, yes, he is better than Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang is just a wooden ox and a flowing horse, a crossbow or something, listen to King Rui, he wants us to make a rifle that can shoot continuously, wow, a sweep is a large piece, God is not God."

"King Rui, I really suspect that he is the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang."

"I think so too, no, also, I suspect that he is the reincarnation of Guan Erye, you see, how capable he is, he is confused, and the entire Shaanxi and Gansu have been swept away by him."

The worship of Luo Yang and the discussion in laughter have made the newly established Shaanxi Arsenal have a huge cohesion, and everyone is full of spirit and has expressed their attitude to fight for the cause of the Chinese Heavenly Kingdom for life.

The celebration meeting was followed by a professional scientific research meeting, and Luo Yang put forward a complete set of his own military development plans, especially the specific performance of various weapons, indicators, development process, etc., as well as the production process requirements, related equipment development, etc., and put it forward in one mind.

For a modern artillery squad leader, many things are vague, but after a little study of the concept, he can make a general judgment, and he demanded that within one month, the modern rifle and ammunition integrated technology be developed, and the production can be explored, ordinary machine tools can be rapidly developed and published, various technological technologies can be rapidly accumulated, and mortars can be rapidly developed.

Strictly speaking, he has already got everything in order, just waiting for everyone to practice,

"We will make the brand of the Northwest military industry in the shortest possible time, and within ten years, it will far surpass the German Krupp Arsenal." Luo Yang Haoyan,
