349 Breaking through the barriers of science and technology for the first time

[The Holy Roman Empire disintegrated, the Habsburgs surrendered unconditionally, and the host completed the stage reward and received the highest rating bonus.]

1. Gain 5,000 reputation points; The host's personal reputation has reached 14,000 and the Duke-level privilege of the Total War System is opened.

After the host's long-term efforts to come to this parallel space-time world, he finally reached the duke-level authority with cross-era significance, broke through the technological barriers of this era, and obtained the 12-pound mountain howitzer exchange template that surpassed the technology of the era for nearly two hundred years.

Introduction: The 12-pounder mountain howitzer is a front-loading howitzer invented by the French in the early nineteenth century, although its caliber 4.62-inch barrel can fire the same shells as a regular 12-pounder howitzer, a complete 12-pounder mountain howitzer including the gun body, gun carriage and wheels is lighter than the 12-pounder ordinary howitzer.

A 12-pounder howitzer requires a six-horse trailer to pull it, while a 12-pounder mountain grenade with two ammunition boxes can all be placed on the backs of three mules to climb mountains, forests and waters, completely unrestricted by roads.

The 12-pounder mountain howitzer uses a brass barrel, which greatly extends the life of the shot, and the service life of the brass barrel is about 1,000 rounds.

A 12-pounder mountain grenade was equipped with 6 gunners (other large field guns usually had 8,9), each with a different task, but each was trained to take over the work of the others.

Each 12-pounder mountain howitzer has 1 point of national prestige, replacing the original 6-pounder light front-loading Napoleon field gun, 12-pounder heavy front-loading Napoleon field gun template, the all-round artillery training camp is automatically upgraded and updated, with the ability to manufacture this type of shell, and the exchange of each one includes basic ammunition and skilled artillery members, towed mules and horses.

Duke-level permissions, which can be exchanged directly without waiting for the production time to produce artillery.

2. Gain 20 points of national prestige.

3. Get a chance to draw a lottery for the 10,000-person regiment (you can choose two categories: infantry and cavalry.) )

4. The administrative hall is automatically upgraded, and the price of ordinary administrative officials is greatly reduced, and a little national prestige can be exchanged for 5,000 ordinary administrative officials (originally 2,000 national prestige).

Normal-level administrators do not betray their hosts, but they are incapable of combat, and are as greedy for life and fear death as ordinary people.

5. The infantry barracks are automatically upgraded, and the Taiping Army's elite grenadier template is promoted to the Tianwang Guard, the price remains the same, and it is still a division with two points of national prestige.

Heavenly King's Guard: It has all the configurations of the original elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army, and its abilities in shooting and bayonet hand-to-hand combat have been comprehensively improved, with the attributes of never betraying and not fearing life and death. 】

"Haha, sure enough, the phased reward that I have received after holding it for so long is rich, and 10,000 points of personal prestige is the duke-level authority of the Boundary Ridge, and the improvement is large enough, and the three major system buildings have all been upgraded.

Although the Heavenly King Guards did not improve much compared with the original elite grenadiers of the Taiping Army, and even the weapons and equipment were not changed, the 12-pounder mountain howitzer was definitely an infantry killer, especially in this era of dense phalanxes!

That lottery opportunity to choose cavalry can also greatly make up for the gap that there is no cavalry corps in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom now, and the infantry and cavalry artillery are all in this time, and there are only less than two divisions left in vain. ”

Hong Tiancheng looked at the prompt information in his mind and thought with ecstasy on his face.

After Hong Tiancheng read all the tips, his thoughts focused on the upgraded 'welfare' of the administrative hall.

After the bloody suppression of Poland, the killing of Marshal Stefan of the Polish-Lithuanian Restoration Army, and the complete elimination of the Polish resistance organization, Hong Tiancheng simply and neatly incorporated Poland, which had no resistance and was beaten into ruins, into the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

The population of Poland has plummeted, social production is close to paralysis, and a large number of refugees are homeless.

The reason is very simple, there are many refugees and many people do not have enough to eat, so the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom can recruit the Han Association Army and the Security Corps with extremely low treatment, and when people are desperate, once they have the hope of survival, they will undoubtedly firmly grasp it, even if this hope is contrary to the so-called 'justice'.

Second, the sharp decline in the population means that not many people will join the guerrillas to rebel against the rule of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom......

Although most of the social productive forces in Poland were lost by the war, after all, they had a large area of cultivated mature land, and the Taiping army captured a large number of Polish prisoners in the process of suppressing the Polish-Lithuanian Restoration Army, and just established a large concentration camp-type farm with a wide area on these ownerless mature fields to grow and produce the necessary food.

For Hong Tiancheng, as long as there is food, everything is not a problem.

After all, when the Taiping Army was exchanged, it was fully equipped and did not need other material support, while military supplies such as ammunition were produced and captured by the systematic industrial zone of Kiev City, which was sufficient.

However, the territory is larger, and the number of management personnel is naturally increased, and the original two-kilometer ordinary administrative officials can no longer meet the expansion of the territory of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and they cannot always exercise military control, after all, it is impossible for the main force of the Taiping Army to stay in Poland all the time.

The administrative system is not just to send a few chief officials who are loyal to themselves, the Han people belong to foreign ethnic groups, coupled with the negative impact of aggression and killing, if there is no effective administrative team, it is easy to be overshadowed by local 'gentlemen' grass-roots officials, or even fornicate with local resistance organizations!

Hong Tiancheng naturally does not allow this point, he will never allow the locals to take power, even the rights of a town!

If Hong Tiancheng wants to cut off the possibility of repeated uprisings in Poland from the root, it is natural that a large number of administrative officials loyal to him will serve in the past.

Therefore, after Hong Tiancheng saw that the price of ordinary level administrative officials had dropped by more than 2 times all of a sudden, he waved his hand and directly spent two points of national prestige to exchange for 10,000 ordinary level administrative officials!

In this way, not only is there no problem with the control of the Polish region, but the vacancies of grassroots officials can also be filled in the original Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and there is a huge surplus!

And this surplus part is Hong Tiancheng's preparation for the annexation of the German region.

Setting aside a large number of idle administrative officials, and then following behind the Taiping army, the next area will follow up and stabilize the local rule, this is Hong Tiancheng's future expansion plan.

The remaining 18 points of national prestige, Hong Tiancheng exchanged for a full 10 infantry phalanx mass killer 12-pound mountain howitzers, this kind of cross-era product, is not too much!

The remaining eight points were exchanged for 4 Heavenly King Guards divisions to replenish the infantry force, and after completing the exchange of national prestige, Hong Tiancheng focused on the lottery option.
