Nearly 100,000 new recruits were recruited, and the five major infantry divisions were expanded into 10 infantry divisions, with a total strength of 200,000. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

If it weren't for the fact that the armament could not keep up, it would have been possible to expand to more than a dozen infantry divisions, from 100,000 to 200,000, and at least nearly 100,000 rear-loading guns would be needed, and the three major arsenals would have been at full capacity, and it would take nine or ten months to produce and manufacture them.

Jinling Arsenal.

This is the first research and development task undertaken by the arsenal since its establishment, the development of a new revolver, the old revolver uses black powder copper shell bullets, large caliber, 15 mm thick caliber, which determines that the old revolver is relatively bulky,

The new revolver uses smokeless gunpowder copper-shelled bullets, the caliber is reduced from 15 mm to 9 mm caliber, the caliber is reduced, and the new revolver is correspondingly small and refined, a little similar to the appearance of modern revolvers, and it is estimated that it is much more convenient to use.

Zhang Feng has already decided that the new revolver has been successfully developed, and it will be used as a standard gun for officers at and above the rank of lieutenant, and will be equipped with a large number of officers at and above the second lieutenant level.

Because of the foundation of the old-fashioned revolver, and because many technical backbones of the Jinling factory were transferred from the Shanghai Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, the development of the new revolver was relatively smooth, the design has been completed, and the first prototype gun is being trial-produced.

Not far from the Jinling Arsenal, also located in the suburbs of the city a few miles away, there is a huge military school here, this is the "Jinling Army Military Academy", the current "Jinling Army Military Academy" is not famous, but a few years later, this school is famous, it is the most famous military school in the Chinese Empire, and the cadets who graduated from the school are called "protégés of the Son of Heaven".

Today, it is very grand here, the first phase of the "Jinling Army Military Academy" graduated ahead of schedule, this phase of the trainees, for the first phase of Jinling, in the future, out of a lot of meritorious generals, a few years later, speaking of the first phase of Jinling, many people are in awe.

Because of the war and because of the need for officers at all levels for the expansion of the army, the original one-year study system was only a few months, and it was not less than a year at all, and these cadets graduated ahead of schedule.

On the huge playground, colorful flags fluttered, several students were neatly and neatly, and the graduation ceremony was being held, and Zhang Feng was standing on the rostrum, with a loud voice, and was speaking to everyone.

The first batch of trainees, with more than 200 people, was divided into several sections, including the infantry section, the artillery section, and the cavalry section, among which the infantry section had the largest number and the cavalry section had the smallest number.

Zhang Feng's voice echoed in everyone's ears: "Cadets, from today on, you have become a real grassroots officer, and you will go to the command position of platoon commander, company commander, and even battalion commander......

"You are all my students, today, you are proud of me, tomorrow, I will be proud of you......"

Zhang Feng's words were very infectious, echoing in everyone's ears, many students were excited, and many people stood neatly in the audience, looking at their own principal who was speaking on the stage with blazing eyes.

Zhang Feng is the principal of the "Jinling Army Military Academy", and all of these students are naturally Zhang Feng's students, and everyone feels extremely honored and proud to be Zhang Feng's students.

After Zhang Feng's speech, warm applause came one after another, and then, Zhang Feng presented awards to outstanding students and awarded honorary certificates or certificates.

Starting today, all of these cadets will be assigned to various infantry divisions to serve as company and platoon commanders at the most basic level, and a few people with very good performance will take up the post of battalion commander.

Beginning in the autumn of this year, the second phase of classes will be held, and the same will be selected from the grass-roots units of the troops; in addition to the grass-roots officers such as company and platoon commanders who will enter the "Jinling Army Military Academy," a large part of them will also be squad leaders or squad deputies with outstanding performance, and the duration of study will be one year.

As long as the squad leader or squad deputy performs well, he can also enter the "Jinling Army Military Academy" for further study, thus opening up another channel for the promotion of ordinary soldiers.

Beginning with the second phase, a "senior command department" will be set up, and the cadets will be selected mainly from among the officers at the level of various infantry divisions and colonels to study for one year to learn some cultural knowledge and operational theory, and after the completion of the study period, they will be promoted to half a grade.

In less than a month, the recruitment of new recruits was completed, 100,000 recruits began training, the five major infantry divisions were expanded into 10 infantry divisions, officers at all levels began to be frequently transferred, and the cadets of the first phase of Nanjing were also added to the infantry divisions.

After the expansion, the framework of the 10 major infantry divisions was quickly set up, and only one month later, 100,000 new soldiers were assigned to each infantry division for replenishment, and after the replenishment of new soldiers, each division was full.

Shanxi, Taiyuan.

It is obvious that a major war has just been experienced here, Taiyuan City is the east gate, a large group of Dashun troops stand neatly, Li Zicheng rode a high-headed horse, followed by a large number of generals, and began to live in Taiyuan City.

The Dashun army conquered Taiyuan, and after resting here for a few days, the army marched eastward, and the direction of advance was naturally the direction of the capital, and it would go out of the pass to Hebei, and then the troops would go to Taiyuan.

Outside Shanhaiguan.

An iron cavalry is advancing, and in front of it is the Manchu commander's big tent, and this iron cavalry is actually the iron cavalry of the Guanning Army, and the leader is Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan.

It seems that Wu Sangui fornicated with the Tartars, which is true, Wu Sangui went out of the customs, met Dolgon, and began to negotiate conditions with Dolgon.

After such a long time of preparation, Dolgon was all ready, Wu Sangui arrived, Dolgon's army was overjoyed, Dolgon knew that he could take the Shanhaiguan that he had been thinking about day and night without spending a single soldier, and he would be able to lead his troops to enter the Shanhaiguan Pass.

Wu Sangui and Dolgon negotiated terms, and Wu Sangui let go of Shanhaiguan to let the Manchus enter the customs, and assisted the Manchus in attacking the Ming army and the Dashun army.

In return, the Manchus crowned Wu Sangui as king, and took the Yellow River as the boundary, with the north of the Yellow River going to the Manchu Qing and the south of the Yellow River going to Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui actually believed such a promise, and after the negotiation, he happily returned to Shanhaiguan.

Seeing Wu Sangui away, Dolgon was so happy that he almost wanted to laugh three times, he was finally able to stay in the Central Plains and finally enter the city of Beijing.

A Tartar general next to him saw that Wu Sangui had left, and couldn't help but say: "Master, give Wu Sangui all the south of the Yellow River, is this too much?" ”

Dolgon smiled and said: "This is just to appease Wu Sangui, when we take over the world and sit firmly in the Dragon Court, where can we follow him Wu Sangui, then send him casually, and let him go to a remote area to be a prince." ”

It turned out that Dolgon was just taking advantage of Wu Sangui, and this full promise was not counting, to be honest, Wu Sangui was still a little worse than Dolgon in terms of intrigue and trickery.

"Tell the warriors, get ready, and after five days, enter the customs in batches, capture the city of Beijing, and kill the emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

"Yes!"

The dream of many years was finally coming true, and these Manchu generals, as if they had been stimulated, happily answered in unison, and then began to prepare separately and prepare to enter the customs.

History is estimated to change again, in history, Li Zicheng, who first entered the city of Beijing, because of Wu Sangui's voluntary surrender, it is estimated that the Manchu Tartars will enter the city of Beijing first.

…………

Wu Sangui went out of Shanhaiguan to meet Dolgon, and was detected by Guan Peng's intelligence team, and immediately flew pigeons to pass the book, and finally the news reached Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng received the news and thought in his heart, it's bad, it is estimated that at this time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has begun to enter the customs, as long as the Manchu Qing Dynasty enters the customs, the Ming army guarding the capital will not be able to resist.

"Her Royal Highness the princess Lao Tzu is still in the palace in the capital, but she can't fall into the hands of the Tartars, and she must enter the capital quickly." Zhang Feng thought so in his heart.

Zhang Feng took dozens of guards and more than a dozen special combat team members to take a boat from Shanghai Port to Tianjin Wei.

A few days later, Zhang Feng arrived in Tianjinwei, as soon as he arrived in Tianjinwei, he heard that the Manchu Tartars had entered the customs and were attacking the city of Beijing, Zhang Feng did not dare to stay, changed into military uniforms, changed into the clothes of the common people, and the rest of the people were the same, riding horses, everyone ran towards Beijing City quickly.

Rushing all the way from Tianjin Wei to the outside of Beijing, Zhang Feng could see that the gate of Beijing was closed, and the kind of pre-war depression and tension could be clearly seen.

At this time, it is estimated that it will not be long before the Manchu Tartars will storm the city of Beijing, and at that time, it is estimated that it will be more difficult to get out of the city, but now Zhang Feng can no longer take care of these.

"Drive!"

As soon as he entered the city of Beijing, Zhang Feng pulled the horse's back, and ran towards the inner city without stopping, the inner city is also called the imperial city, when Zhang Feng arrived in the inner city, it was obvious that martial law had been imposed here, although there was no gate closed, but there were many soldiers standing outside the gate, and some of them seemed to be guards.

"Who's coming?"

Seeing that Zhang Feng did not slow down, he rushed over on horseback with a large group of people, and the leading guards immediately shouted loudly, and the other soldiers pointed at Zhang Feng with spears to prevent Zhang Feng and others from entering.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, this is General Zhang of Nanzhili!" Some special combat team members shouted loudly.

Zhang Feng was also unhappy and said: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”

The leading guard looked at Zhang Feng and obviously recognized Zhang Feng, but he still said: "Master Don, I'm sorry, no one is allowed to enter without a long live edict." ”

"Get out!"

Zhang Feng whipped it over, at this time, Zhang Feng couldn't care about it so much, after a whip was drawn, he grabbed the horse's belly and rushed over first.

Seeing this, the others also followed suit, and rode their horses to follow, and all rushed over, leaving a large back, and after the leading guards reacted, they said that this courage is too big, and they broke into the palace, cow!
