622 Take Guizhou
The Huaxia army immediately attacked and killed the position of the Qing army, at this time, the Qing army was already frightened by the Monkey King airship in the sky, and they didn't know how to resist at all, so they threw down their swords and guns and fled in all directions.
Zhang Zhidong's new army is still very combative, but in the fleeing tide of the Qing army, Zhang Zhidong's new army is like a fish that is swept up in the waves and can't help itself, and is coerced by the fleeing Qing army to retreat.
Zhang Zhidong's new army was scattered by the fleeing Qing army, and the organization had been completely disrupted, and it was impossible to organize an effective resistance, and after barely resisting for a while, retreated in a hurry.
Qi Lei wanted to completely disperse the Qing army in one fell swoop in order to completely dispel the threat of the Qing army, so before the battle was launched, Qi Lei specially emphasized to his subordinates that the main purpose of this operation was to completely annihilate the Qing army, so the main thing in the battle should be to eliminate the living forces of the Qing army.
As soon as Qi Lei's instruction came out, the Huaxia army captured a large number of Qing troops, killed and wounded the Qing army, and the battle lasted for two hours, and among the 100,000 Qing troops, 70,000 or 80,000 surrendered, and the remaining Qing troops, Zhang Zhidong's new army, retreated in an orderly manner, and the other Qing troops fled to the deep mountains and dense forests, nowhere to be found.
At the end of the battle, Zhang Zhidong led the Qing army all the way to Guiyang Mansion to escape, four Monkey King airships along the official road, chasing the Qing army to bomb indiscriminately, Zhang Zhidong's elite new army suffered heavy casualties, Zhang Zhidong could only reluctantly order, the troops scattered and retreated.
Qi Lei handed over the captured Qing army to the 1600th Division, the reserve division of the 16th Division, and led the 16th Division to chase after the Qing army, killing all the way to Guiyang.
Along the way, the officials of the state capitals and counties of the Qing court fled, and Qi Lei's 16th Division occupied the state capitals almost without bloodshed.
Zhang Zhidong originally wanted to lead the troops to defend Guiyang, but the people in Guiyang City were in turmoil, and the people were looking forward to the arrival of the Chinese army as soon as possible.
In doing so, Zhang Zhidong is equivalent to giving up the entire Guizhou to Huaxia.
Qi Lei continued to march on the march, and the war progressed very smoothly, and by mid-January 1899, the Huaxia Army had already controlled the whole of Guizhou.
As soon as Lin Fei's military occupation ended, political control began, and the Guizhou Provincial Government was established, local governments and garrisons at all levels were also established, and land reform and social landscape reform were also carried out.
The so-called reform of social outlook is to change hair and change clothes, and the Qing people all have long braids, which Lin Fei absolutely cannot tolerate, so Lin Fei asked to cut off the long braids, if anyone dares not to cut off the long braids, then Lin Fei will cut off their heads.
What Lin Fei didn't expect was that the people of the Qing Kingdom actually had a lot of feelings for the pigtail-like braid behind their heads, and many Qing people would rather let Lin Fei cut off their heads than cut off the braids.
Emotionally speaking, the people of the Qing Dynasty are Lin Fei's compatriots, and in terms of practical interests, they are Lin Fei's labor, of course Lin Fei is unwilling to kill them, but it is difficult for them to convince the public if they don't cut their braids and kill them.
When Lin Fei was in a dilemma, he suddenly came up with a solution, that is, to link cutting braids with land division, and whoever did not cut off his braids would be a "remnant of the Manchu Qing Dynasty" and would not be given land.
Of course, there are some craftsmen and merchants in the city who don't need land, so the method of not dividing land has no effect on them, Lin Fei knows the truth of envy and power, and picks out some hardliners from these people and kills them in public, and no one dares to say anything nonsense.
After the political reform, it was time to develop the economy, and Lin Fei would never let go of the mineral resources of this province every time he conquered a province of the Qing Dynasty, and the exploitation of these resources improved the scientific and technological strength of the Chinese Empire on the one hand, and improved the living standards of the local people on the other hand.
There are two most important mineral resources in Guizhou, one of them, phosphate rock, second, bauxite, of which phosphate rock reserves rank first in the Qing Dynasty, bauxite reserves rank second in the Qing Dynasty, the use and importance of bauxite naturally needless to say, this phosphate rock is also an extremely important ore, its biggest use is to make phosphate fertilizer, in the era of Lin Fei, 90% of the phosphate rock are used to make phosphate fertilizer.
Phosphate fertilizer is phosphorus-containing fertilizer, phosphorus is the key element of crop growth, crops themselves absorb less from the soil, if the artificial application of phosphorus-containing fertilizer, crops will obtain sufficient phosphorus, grain yield can reach 10%.
Lin Fei decided to establish a phosphate fertilizer production base in Guizhou for the production of large quantities of phosphate fertilizer, but in order to establish this production base, the construction of the railway must keep up.
Lin Fei then instructed Zhan Tianyou to build the Kungui Railway from Guiyang to Kunming, but Zhan Tianyou flatly refused, the reason is very simple, Huaxia's railway construction capacity has reached the limit at this time.
Count the railways that are now under construction or in preparation in the Chinese Empire - the Sumatra Ring Island Railway, the Borneo Oil Railway (this railway is called an oil railway because the cities it passes through are the centers of the oil industry), and the Sulawesi railway...... There are more than a dozen in total, and the railway construction team in Huaxia is really too busy.
Lin Fei originally wanted to recruit a foreign railway construction team to build a railway according to the model of the Hekun Railway, but as soon as the foreign railway construction team heard that it was from Guiyang to Kunming, no company came to bid, because Guiyang and Kunming are both located on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau is mountainous and horizontal, and it is called "the land has no three miles of flat", and it is too difficult to build a railway on such a terrain.
Lin Fei has no choice, now he can only rely on his own people, fortunately, Ling Xue's group of international students is coming back, there are three thousand of them, Lin Fei has already thought about it, these people will return to Huaxia, half of them will enter the university to teach, cultivate their own talents, and half will go to various factories to solve practical technical problems.
Since the railway is not repaired, Lin Fei also dispelled the idea of marching into Sichuan now, without the railway, the logistics supply of the front-line troops will be very problematic, food and drinking water can be solved locally, but weapons and ammunition can never be solved locally, if because the supply of weapons and ammunition is not enough to be counterattacked by the Qing army, and then hit hard by the Qing army, then Lin Fei's fun will be great.
The Huaxia army stopped the offensive, the Qing court also died down, and the million-dollar counteroffensive that the Guangxu Emperor had high hopes for, not only did not counterattack Yunnan and Guangxi, but was defeated by Lin Fei in Guizhou, and the Japanese army dispatched airships to assist in the operation, as a result, three of the six airships were destroyed, and the remaining three could not be taken away, all of which self-destructed.
Emperor Guangxu could only swallow his teeth in his stomach, but he was bent on the next counterattack.
The Qing Kingdom did not counterattack, and Lin Fei gained a rare calm, but what made Lin Fei feel at ease was the mysterious maid, this maid appeared once in Zhennan Pass, and then appeared in the estuary, and also attacked the sentry and stole Huaxia's rockets, the identity of this maid is really unpredictable.
Lin Fei couldn't think of the identity of the mysterious maid, so he didn't think about her anymore, and the next thing was to wait for Ling Xue to come back.
Xiyun regarded Ling Xue as her own sister, and was naturally very happy about Ling Xue's return, not to mention Meixiang and Shizuka, and was also waiting to see Ling Xue, but Ruan Fu Baojiao was worried that Ling Xue would fall out of favor when she came back, so she was gentle and charming to Lin Fei.
Lu Xian'er is big-chested and big-hearted, she doesn't care at all whether Ling Xue will fall out of favor when she comes back, eats snacks every day, opens comic books, and practices martial arts with Huang Feihong, of course, she will be lazy whenever she is free.
Only the jade condensation frost was mysterious, and Lin Fei didn't know what she was doing at all.
On this day, Lin Fei was worried about the development of the aircraft, the hydrodynamic calculation of the wing was too complicated, it would be nice to have a computer, but how could there be a computer in this era, although Lin Fei knew some principles of the computer, but how to make it, he didn't understand it at all.
Lin Fei was distressed, Xiyun suddenly pushed the door open, and said in a panic: "Husband, it's not good, Sister Ningshuang, something happened to her." ”
Lin Fei was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What happened to her Ning Shuang?" ”
"Her leg is broken."
"What did she do, how could her good leg break?"
"I don't know, she won't say anything when I ask her, anyway, you should hurry up and take a look."
Lin Fei hurriedly followed Xiyun out, at this time Yu Ningshuang was in the hospital, Lin Fei followed Xiyun to the hospital, entered the ward, and saw Yu Ningshuang lying on the hospital bed, her right leg was hanging on the bed, and the position of her calf was covered with a thick cast and bandage.
Yu Ningshuang turned her head to see Lin Fei and smiled faintly, "Master, why are you here?" ”
Lin Fei pointed at Yu Ningshuang's right leg with his hand and said angrily, "What's going on? ”
Yu Ningshuang laughed, as if the person who broke her leg was not her, "I had some minor problems during training, and my leg was broken." ”
Lin Fei really didn't know what to say, so he said helplessly: "What are you practicing, can you break your leg?" ”
Yu Ningshuang was just about to speak, when she suddenly turned her head and glanced at Xiyun, meaning that she couldn't say it in front of Xiyun, Xiyun suddenly exclaimed: "Sister Ningshuang, how do you bully people, you said that I am your own sister, what can't you say in front of me." ”
Yu Ningshuang showed a mysterious smile and comforted: "Good sister, don't worry, I will tell you about my training, now you go out first, okay?" ”
Yu Ningshuang's words made Lin Fei's heart tremble suddenly, and he secretly thought, Ning Shuang is notoriously open, Xiyun is notoriously conservative, what Ning Shuang refused to let Xiyun listen to, could it be that kind of thing...... Eh, no, no, what's going on, that kind of thing, how can you break your leg? (11th holiday, various gatherings, updates are not timely, I hope you understand, readership - 423214695)
