The next day, when the citizens of Baotou came out, the scene of the previous heavy security was gone, and the citizens could enter and exit Baotou casually, but they were still cleaning the place in the battlefield and could not go over for the time being.

The caravan that has been parked in Baotou for a long time has been notified that they can set off within a day or two, and they should not encounter any danger, these caravans, it can be said that they are half-believed, you know, the well-informed people in the caravan are very clear, there are tens of thousands of horse bandits, gathered in this area, they want to attack Baotou, ordinary horse bandits, three or five hundred people, is already a large share, tens of thousands of people, even the big caravan does not dare to act lightly, once encountered, swallowed and swallowed.

Last night, the gunshots rang out like fried beans for most of the night, most of the businessmen were worried, they were worried about encountering horse bandits to loot Baotou, but they were helpless, at most they could only send out the guards, who knows, but they were told that they did not need their guards, which made them puzzled at the same time, but also could not put their minds at ease, last night, for most people, was a sleepless night.

Early this morning, most of the caravans sent people out to inquire about the situation, but they heard that the problem of bandits was solved, and the problem was solved overnight, whether it was the new army on the side of Baotou that defeated the horse bandits from northern Mengbei, or the horse bandits withdrew, no matter which one it was, it was a good thing for them, the caravan that came to Baotou, the few, also stayed in Baotou for a week, long, almost stayed for more than half a month, trapped in one place, coupled with the anxiety in their hearts, let them feel worried, and now it has finally passed.

But when it was released, not many people were willing to go first. What if there are bandits out there? There was always the first one to eat crabs, and when the first large caravan of more than thirty merchants left Baotou, they formed a large caravan with 300 vehicles and more than 400 guards.

After they left Baotou slowly, one caravan after another began to leave, when the merchants left along the official road, only to see the scene that they will never forget, after a night of collection, most of the corpses, were put aside, by the tractor dug out of the big pit, they will be buried deeply, Baotou in summer, will soon usher in the hot season, a large number of corpses, will definitely spread the plague, into the soil for peace is good.

Miscellaneous barbed wire, the smoke has not completely dispersed, the traces of flesh and blood on the ground, proving last night, what a tragic battle, about this battle, Baotou side, there is no secrecy, soon, the news flowed out, 25,000 horse bandits attacked Baotou, was completely defeated, including the one-eyed dragon, red beard, poisonous lady, including nearly 300 horse bandit leaders, including their horse bandits, was * fell here, for a long time, the atmosphere on the Baotou side, will be uplifted.

Defeated the horse bandits, it can be said that the hidden dangers for a long time have been solved, and they will not be worried when the 54 mixed associations are completely formed, this is an army with 4 reinforced targets, a full number of 12,000 people, and it is easy to control the side of Baotou, by the way, clean up, there are many horse bandits here.

The caravan slowly left Baotou, they had a longing, the goods from all over the country did not know if they were broken, if they were broken, it would definitely be a good business for them, and the horse bandits would attack the city, and they would follow their footsteps, step by step.

No one would have thought that Baotou, which had achieved such a big result, actually had very small losses, and the tragedy was aimed at the bandits, Baotou, in the positional warfare, the losses were extremely small, but there were only a few recruits, because of carelessness, they lost their feet, and the others were not damaged at all, which can also be seen from this, the benefits of the use of a large number of machine guns, in defensive operations, machine guns are almost equal to the best defense.

The merchants rejoiced, more and more horse bandits, it will bring greater unease, such a large caravan of the Qu family has been robbed, not to mention them, if you want to come, it will be much safer later, as for the other citizens, it is just as a talking point, after talking about it, there is nothing to say, life still needs to go on, for ordinary people, do their job well, and earn every day's wages.

The work of cleaning up the battlefield is still ongoing, to the new army in Taiyuan, after completing the redress, it will return, after the war, the expansion of the new army will be promoted to the top of the agenda, 4 complete standards, 12,000 to 14,000 or so, although the establishment, will be in accordance with the standards of the Beiyang Army, more is similar to the setting of later generations, with divisions as units.

The regiment is equivalent to the standard, the four regiments do not meet the principle of three or three, and they are barely used first, for the military, Yang Yuanzhao doesn't know much, he casually said something, and handed over the matter to Feng Yuxiang, they are professional, and for some famous generals in later generations, recruitment, also mentioned on the agenda, Yang Yuanzhao doesn't remember much, just said the most famous ones, of course, how can there be less Lu Shi Sanjie.

Yang Yuanzhao's decision, a certain Cheng dù above, changed the historical trajectory of many people, when Feng Yuxiang from Beiyang got the 440 lowest is also a shed of officers, arrived in Baotou, the expansion of the army officially began, the first to merge into it, is the militia, 2500 militia who participated in the battle, they have an advantage compared to ordinary recruits, and there is some professional training, at least in the training of recruits, can save part of the time, and then, within the scope of the entire Baotou, Recruited almost 7,000 recruits, of course, just relying on Baotou, some difficulties, most of them were recruited in Shanxi and Henan, the silver was enough, and the settlement fee was also sufficient, it took more than 10 days of hard work to complete the recruitment, one after another, will come to Baotou to start training.

They will start training recruits for three months in June, and basically master the initial combat skills, at least be able to shoot, be able to form an attack camp, and be able to do soil work, and only after doing this can they be able to rank a qualified new army soldier, and as for the new army's combat effectiveness, it will take a longer period of training.

The impact of the bandits' siege of the city slowly subsided, and it was delayed for more than a week, and even the wheat was harvested in advance, and a lot of losses were lost, and the quality was also reduced.

This time the bandits attacked the city, the battlefield was around Baotou, did not affect the outside of the agricultural plantations and seedling base, after the battlefield was cleaned, the planting work began to roll out, this year's cotton seedlings, along with Yang Yue and others in-depth research, the situation, even better than last year's, 600,000 acres of cultivation, a little worse, but still been robbed, the price is higher than last year, after all, people who have eaten crabs, will definitely eat more, and see others planted, also began to consider, conservative estimates, This year, the entire Baotou area, cotton planting area, will reach about 20 million mu, even if the average harvest is 20 catties of lint, there are four or five billion catties, this number, enough to support the expansion of Baotou cotton textile factory.

Cotton planted, a large number of people to take care of, the reclamation company's own 8 million acres of land, the growth is gratifying, a large number of fertilizer use, which is through the guò synthetic ammonia project to get, at present, large-scale fertilizer plant, the output is only 130 tons per day, this number, compared with the large-scale fertilizer plant in later generations, is simply a heaven and a ground, the annual output is only tens of thousands of tons, but in this era, this has been enough to support the large-scale use of fertilizer in Baotou.

Yang Yuanzhao finally stopped the largest project in the all-in-one machine, and the largest part of his fertilizer synthesis every day was transformed into the synthesis of more important alloys, and with a fertilizer plant with a considerable output, it can even be sold in small batches.

Baotou uses chemical fertilizer, for the people around, it is no secret, some of the surrounding landlords know that chemical fertilizer can fertilize the land, but under an inquiry, Baotou does not sell chemical fertilizer, Shanghai and Tianjin have, a question price, too high, an acre of land to use 100 catties, is a piece of 10 yuan, what to plant can withstand this, even if it is cotton, the harvest of an acre of land, but only more than 20 yuan, throw away the cost of fertilizer and the cost of seedlings, a certain Cheng dù above, not much money.

Now, fertilizer is on sale, although the amount is not much, about 10 tons per day, but the price is not expensive, the price of 100 catties is almost a little more than 2 yuan, only one-fifth of the price of foreign spending.

A little more than 2 yuan, anyone will calculate this account, before they got the cotton from the reclamation company, and the output of the reclamation company is twice as bad, the key, on top of this cost, with the cost of 2 yuan, to Bo eight or nine yuan of income, it seems that it is possible, suddenly, fertilizer has become a new hot thing in Baotou, 10 tons a day, almost in the morning, was robbed.

Chemical fertilizer has become a new growth point, Yang Yuanzhao also specially used an all-in-one machine, and made some large jars, combined together, a new round of expansion of the fertilizer plant, the future plan in one to two years, so that the production capacity of the fertilizer plant, from the current 130 tons or so, to about 650 tons, so down, not only the reclamation company has a sufficient number of fertilizers, fertilizer can also continue to promote outward, China's land, after years of planting and development, some barren, need to use chemical fertilizer in the place is very muchFertilizer is one of the projects that must be developed and urgently need to be developed.
