Sa Daoyi didn't want to have too many British shadows in this matter, after all, the British are not having a good time now.

A small Boer can make the British a little anxious, not to mention this Far Eastern power, which is even more difficult to deal with than Boer.

In this war, which had just ended, Sardor did not want to drag Britain into the war in the Far East again, and the source of the war was not because the interests of the British were damaged, but for the interests of the Japanese.

No, it should be said that it is for the sake of the interests that the Japanese have taken a fancy to, but they have not yet gotten their hands on.

Komura Shotaro left the small house disappointed, where he was not given any assurances, no news that the Japanese wanted to hear.

However, in the face of these bad news without any guarantees, Komura Shoutaro did not gain nothing.

At the very least, the British would not prevent them from using some non-war means to acquire those resources in the Northeast. This is also important for the Japanese.

"Contact Nakamura-kun and ask him to send someone to meet General Shengjing to find out the tone of the other party, and send someone to inform the troops stationed in North Korea that they are ready to attack at any time." After leaving Sadoyi's small courtyard, Komura Shoutaro commanded one of his attendants.

Now Japan must make several preparations, if Wang Sirui can agree to Japan to mine iron ore in the Shengjing area, then the result will naturally be happy.

If Wang Sirui is resolute, then he can only start from Shengjing General Chongshan, I believe that under the pressure of the Japanese Empire, Chongshan should agree. Of course, if Chongshan was a tough guy, then the Japanese would have to resort to the last resort and start a war to get those resources.

In his office, Mr. Wang signed his name on a document.

This is a plan submitted by Wang Shizhen, a huge plan involving a time span, a number of people, and an influence second only to the 'Fu' plan.

The whole plan is divided into two parts, the first part of which is military, Wang Shizhen proposed that with the current financial resources of the army, it is capable of doubling the size of the army, or even larger, and weapons can also be slowly accumulated, I believe that after the arsenal is put into operation, it will only take a year and a half at most to arm more than 100,000 troops.

The core idea of this plan is that people can wait for equipment, but they can't let equipment wait for people.

Wang Shizhen's idea was to train those recruits to be combat-ready soldiers first, and distribute a small number of weapons in the recruit camp for them to use to practice marksmanship, so that when the weapons were in place, the soldiers in the new barracks could immediately pick up arms and go to the battlefield.

With the opening of Wang Sirui's restrictions on the capital, more and more people can enter the city, and the troops can also go to the suburbs to recruit, and the most important thing in China is the population, even if Wang Sirui's requirements are extremely strict, a considerable number of recruits can be recruited in a short time.

Therefore, the military aspect was divided into five small parts by Wang Shizhen, and in the next three months, at least 100,000 recruits were recruited near the capital and in Shandong, and then used for training in the next nine months, so that after they completed the training of recruits, the weapons were almost in place.

At the same time, it is necessary to select some officers or soldiers with outstanding ability and novel ideas from the army to enter the military academy for advanced study, so as to cultivate the quality of the officers at the grassroots level of the Han army and complete the first step of the plan within one year. At this point, the first part is over.

The second part is that starting in the second year of the next year, the army should continue to expand and carry out recruitment training according to the plan of the first year, and the number of troops should be increased to 100,000.

There was a slight change in the third part, because by this time, the Han army already had about 2.67 million troops, of which 1670,000 were veterans with more than one year of military experience, 670,000 were veterans with more than two years of military experience, and about 40,000 were elites who had participated in battles.

So, in the third part, although this time it was also a year, the number of people who expanded the army increased by 50,000.

The fourth part is a direct increase of 200,000, that is, according to Wang Shizhen's plan, after four years, the Han army in Wang Sirui's hands will reach at least more than 500,000 troops.

At this time, Wang Sirui is basically invincible, and he can expand outward, and at the same time absorb soldiers from other regions, which is also the core content of the fifth part.

Based on the existing 500,000 troops, for each province captured, 40,000 soldiers were recruited in that province, that is, two divisions were formed.

If all goes well with the plan, then after the fifth year, it can be guaranteed that at least half of China north of the Yellow River and south of the Great Wall will be under Wang Sirui's control.

Although there is a sixth part here, it is just a proposal, the content of the sixth part is the southern expedition and the northern expedition, and there is no specific plan, Wang Sirui also knows very well why Wang Shizhen did not write the content of the sixth part.

Although this army expansion plan is somewhat different from Wang Sirui's ideas, it is generally more reasonable, and it is also more in line with Wang Sirui's current strength, and he will not pull the egg because of the big step.

The other part is the industrial part, this plan has only two steps, the first step is to fully develop the industrial park on the north side of the capital, master as much technology and experience as possible, and when the time is right, the second industrial park can be developed.

The second step is to start the talent introduction and training plan immediately, otherwise in the later stage of the huge industrial construction, they will lead to the ultimate failure due to the lack of talents.

After reading the whole plan, Wang Sirui signed his name under the plan and named the plan the 'National' plan.

This plan is listed as a follow-up to the 'Restoration' project, and it also operates as a sub-project of the 'Restoration' program.

Because there are many similarities between the two, and there are also some differences, it can be said that the two are almost half of each other.

"In terms of talent, I have asked people to go to a secret search, and it is estimated that there will be news back in the near future. This plan can also be implemented, but some details must be changed, the first year at least 200,000 soldiers need to be recruited, these soldiers' salaries are reduced to two and a half silver per month, the training period is changed to half a year, and then the instructors evaluate these recruits, and those with excellent results can be directly added to the army, and the treatment is also promoted to the same as that of the front-line troops. The rest went to the reserves.

Those soldiers who have been transferred to the reserve will be paid three taels of silver per month, and in addition, they will be on par with the front-line troops in terms of training, and the expansion of the army in the future will only be selected from the reserves, and since they have been transferred to the reserves, if they have not been able to enter the front-line troops within five years, they will be automatically retired. Wang Sirui said, and in the end, he didn't forget to explain to Wang Shizhen the reason why he did this: "I don't want a soldier who hasn't entered the front-line army for five years to die on the battlefield, which is irresponsible to the country, and it is also irresponsible to him." ”

Listening to Wang Sirui's words, Wang Shizhen frowned deeply, Wang Sirui's method does have merit, the huge reserve can provide the front-line troops with supplementary troops that come to the battlefield, and can solve the problem of the combat quality of the front-line troops to supplement the recruits to the greatest extent.

But again, although the salaries of the reservists have been reduced considerably, they still require a large amount of money to support them.

As far as the current situation of the Han army is concerned, instead of training 200,000 troops who are not sure when they will be able to go to the battlefield, it is more appropriate to directly train 100,000 elite soldiers.

Similarly, the establishment of a reserve will also increase the workload of the high-level, after all, they need to go back and forth, and they have to make a new budget, which is obviously not suitable for Wang Sirui, who is currently short of manpower.

"The concept of the reserve is indeed very good, but it is not suitable for our current situation, I think when we have a million troops, we can only think about the formation of a reserve, and now to form this can only be a waste of financial, material and human resources." Wang Shizhen said.

"If nothing else, the first batch of soldiers can basically enter the front-line troops, and the reason why such a reserve is formed is to prepare for the future, and second...... Isn't it for money to make trouble? Although we now have a lot of money, it is not spent, and every penny must be used in a useful place, and lowering the salary of the reserve forces, from another point of view, can also stimulate those recruits to train harder and strive to enter the front-line troops as soon as possible. Wang Sirui explained with a smile.

What is to accumulate experience in the future and the like, it is all Wang Sirui is talking nonsense, and the real reason is because there is no money, Wang Sirui has to calculate how to spend money.

And if you want to expand the army, but you don't want to spend too much money, then you can only calculate it on the recruits. Although the salary of the new army is reduced, this is not all bad for Wang Sirui.

Wang Shizhen's face twitched slightly, this Wang Sirui was really scheming, and he even came up with this method, and he couldn't help but admire Wang Shizhen.

Similarly, this also made Wang Shizhen feel the heavier and heavier pressure on his shoulders.

Although the scale of the industrial park is very large, it is not big at all compared to the stall that Wang Sirui pounced on, and similarly, this industrial park is also the foundation of Wang Sirui's future development, which must be done well, and it must be expanded.

As for how much money the industrial park can make, this Wang Shizhen has not thought about it for the time being, he has read the list of industrial parks, and found that most of them are related to the army, so to make this industrial park meet the needs of the Han army as soon as possible, this is Wang Shizhen's current task.
