Chapter 48 Artillery is King

"Captain, we can't let the Second Master arrest anyone anymore. All the prisons in the city will no longer be able to hold them."

Under Zhu Chuanwen's persuasion, Chuanwu reluctantly stayed in Bingcheng and became the director of the patrol department.

Although there are no bandits to fight in Bingcheng, there are many ruffians and gangs, which is also a surprise for Chuanwu.

Chuanwu originally only cares about the process of fighting, not what is being fought.

After bringing his own battalion of soldiers and horses to join the patrol room, it is also very effective to sweep away the criminals.

No matter who is behind the gang, Chuanwu has no scruples in arresting him.

The speed was so fast that it was too late for anyone who wanted to ask Zhu Chuanwen for a favor.

"If you catch them, send them away. What are you doing with them? When will our finances become rich enough to provide for leisure people?"

Zhu Chuanwen replied to the deputy he assigned to Chuanwu.

This is an old bureaucrat who can help Chuanwu handle administrative matters very well.

"Captain, what do you mean?"

"Send them all to me to mine and mine for coal. We never have too many miners."

Zhu Chuanwen has not yet found the coal mine that Lao Zhu's family discovered later, but there is really no shortage of minerals in Heilongjiang Province.

For example, it has been three years since the coal seams in Heli now, and Hegang in the future, were discovered. The reserves in this mining area alone are enough for Heilongjiang Province to use in this era.

For Zhu Chuanwen, who wanted to develop industry, it was impossible not to pay attention to mining.

But with the technological level of this era, if you want to mine, you mainly use manual labor.

The Black Province is also different from other overcrowded areas in that it is a sparsely populated province.

Relatively speaking, it is relatively easy for ordinary people to survive. Whether they open up wasteland and farm their own fields or work in factories, it is not difficult to survive.

Most people are not willing to work as miners when there is something they can do normally.

Coal mines are not gold mines, and miners cannot get much benefit.

Using prisoners as miners has become the most cost-effective thing.

Even after modernization, prisoners still need sewing machines to create value.

The productivity of this era is not enough, and prisoners should not eat for free.

"Okay, I will arrange to send the people to the mine."

"The beggars in the city should also be screened. Those with normal intelligence and sound legs will be sent over," Zhu Chuanwen added.

For such a large province, with a total population of five to six million, it can be said that none of it is worth wasting.

Maybe there are too many rich people in Bingcheng and too many kind-hearted people.

This gave birth to a huge beggar group in Bingcheng.

Most of these people are professional beggars and are not incapable of working.

Zhu Chuanwen still cannot see the existence of these people who do not create value.

"I didn't expect that when we came from Shandong by boat together twelve years ago, we really didn't expect that we would be here today."

Three months after Lao Zhu's family moved to Bingcheng, Xia Yuanzhang finally came to Bingcheng.

After all, they were in-laws. After Xia Yuanzhang arrived, Lao Zhu's family held a banquet and invited Xia Yuanzhang's family over.

Of course, it is difficult for Lao Zhu's family to hold any private banquets at this stage.

Different status means different things. Inviting more guests is a sign of respect for the Xia family.

Inviting prominent people from Bingcheng's political and business circles and all walks of life to come over, it was considered as an official appearance for Xia Yuanzhang in Bingcheng.

This will also help Xia Yuanzhang carry out his subsequent work.

The previous Heidong Capital was also able to integrate into Bingcheng Capital relatively smoothly.

"Uncle Xia, don't dwell on the past, but look forward to the future. These people will be your main opponents in the future."

Zhu Chuanwen stood on the second floor of the European-style bungalow, looked at the group of guests below, and said to Xia Yuanzhang.

"Chuan Wen, they are all our territory to make a living on, so they are not considered opponents, right?"

Xia Yuanzhang asked doubtfully.

Maozi in other places may live a very arrogant life.

But in Zhu Chuanwen's territory, such an arrogant Maozi was never allowed to exist.

Zhu Chuanwen still knew very well that these people were looking for trouble in this land.

It has nothing to do with how Zhu Chuanwen treats these people.

No matter how well maintained it is, these people will not hesitate when it’s time to fall out.

These are people who take advantage of the tough but not the soft. They are all robbers with logic.

The weaker they are, the more arrogant they will be.

The tougher and more powerful you are, the more respect you will get if you do the opposite.

That's why I haven't been careful with these people and haven't taken them down for others to see. It's also because I want to take advantage of the devils from all over the world.

"You wouldn't think that these idiots from all over the world come all the way here just to do charity. You should always be careful with these people."

After mastering Bingcheng, Zhu Chuanwen became more aggressive.

But the most troublesome thing to deal with is actually the idiots from various countries.

This is mainly reflected in the economic aspect.

Even if Zhu Chuanwen tries his best to create a fair business environment, the gap in technological levels will still exist.

In the initial stage of industry, the most vulnerable thing is industrial dumping.

Not only domestic merchants will compete maliciously, these foreign capitals are better at this.

Even if Zhu Chuanwen controls the foreigners in his own territory, he also controls the foreigners in other territories.

The markets that everyone is targeting are actually the same.

With only a small population outside the customs, the market for industrial products is mainly within the customs.

"I know, I will be careful about these people."

"Uncle Xia, I can rest assured when you do your work."

When Xia Yuanzhang is not floating, he is still very reassuring.

You can't let Xia Yuanzhang drift, you have to hit him at any time.

Especially when Xia Yuanzhang was triumphant and his horses were anxious.

Zhu Chuanwen entrusted both government affairs and business matters to others.

I have more important things to be busy with.

I can personally handle government affairs, and I have the ability to handle them well.

But when it comes to climbing the technology tree, no one can help Zhu Chuanwen.

Even though there are many talents in this era, there are many people who are industry geniuses who have not been encountered for decades.

But the gap in basic knowledge between these people and Zhu Chuanwen is incomparable.

Zhu Chuanwen's knowledge base is a century ahead of these people, and it can be said that he stands on the shoulders of countless giants.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Now that the conditions are in place, Zhu Chuanwen established his own research institute.

The focus of research is actually the military industry.

Developing military industry must be the first priority. As long as there is a peaceful environment, there is plenty of time to slowly climb other technology trees.

What Zhu Chuanwen regrets is that although he understands the nuclear industry.

But we cannot develop nuclear weapons, otherwise we can nuclear neutralize it immediately.

It lags behind in other aspects, but has the ability to develop slowly.

Now is the time when wars are frequent, the world is bustling with war, and war weapons are making the fastest progress.

Zhu Chuanwen is relatively familiar with machinery, but not military technology.

It is impossible for Zhu Chuanwen to fully keep up with the world's leading level by relying on Zhu Chuanwen alone.

Therefore, it is necessary to set a focus and focus for research.

On the battlefield in the West, mechanized equipment has begun to take shape, successfully demonstrating its power on the battlefield.

It can be said that it has successfully changed the form of land warfare.

Regarding armored vehicles and tanks, Zhu Chuanwen actually has no basis for research based on the current industrial situation in Black Province.

Even if it can barely assemble a factory and all core parts have to be imported, it actually has no practical capabilities.

Although Black Province does not lack iron ore, it also does not lack coal.

Zhu Chuanwen also has confidence in the potential of Heilongjiang Province, but it is still too ambitious to study these directly.

When you don’t even understand the research on trucks, it’s still unrealistic to jump into these directly.

Another one that has shone brightly on the Western battlefield is the aircraft.

You can study this, as it is still very important whether it is for air superiority or for reconnaissance in war.

But it is appropriate to start research in this area only if we need to recruit talents.

Zhu Chuanwen already has a target person, but inviting people over still depends on the timing.

What Zhu Chuanwen can do now is to research more defensive weapons.

In fact, they are various artillery, infantry guns, anti-tank guns and anti-aircraft guns.

It makes sense that truth only lies within the range of artillery.

No matter how the military industry develops, artillery is a very important item.

As long as the artillery is equipped with enough artillery, Zhu Chuanwen will be confident to withstand the day.

"Chuanwen, people from Fengtian want to enter Jilin." After winter, Zhu Kaishan said to Zhu Chuanwen.

It is not just Zhu Chuanwen who is developing, but warlords everywhere are also developing.

Being far away has nothing to do with Zhu Chuanwen.

Others have little interest in Zhu Chuanwen, who is in the corner.

The one who left home was the Zhang family in Fengtian. After Zhang Bandit killed his brother, he finally took full control of Fengtian.

It can be regarded as the most important step to take the "King of the Northeast".

After Zhu Kaishan began to help persuade the bandits to surrender, he never gave up this part of his work.

Not everyone is willing to join the regular army and be restrained after getting used to it.

As long as certain rules are ensured, civilians are not harassed, and foreign chambers of commerce are targeted more often, Zhu Chuanwen can tolerate the existence of some bandits.

There are also bandits and some of Zhu Chuanwen's subordinates disguised as bandits in this part, and they are all under the name of Zhu Kaishan.

Since these people are located in the three provinces outside the customs, they are naturally well-informed.

It means that Zhu Kaishan has always been responsible for a large part of the intelligence work.

"It's expected. No one knows what Zhang's thoughts are. Fortunately, we occupied the Heilongjiang Province first, otherwise he, the Zhang, would have attacked the Heilongjiang Province first."

Most knowledgeable people can guess what the Fengtian family is thinking.

This family wants to follow the old path of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.

First control the outside of the pass, and then rely on the power outside the pass to enter the pass.

This is a path proven by the Manchus to be successful.

So Zhu Chuanwen, who had completely occupied Heilongjiang Province, ended his honeymoon period with Fengtian's group.

Although they are separated by Kyrgyzstan, the conflict between the two sides has not yet escalated.

But it is no longer possible to let Chuanjie go to Fengtian to poach people openly like before.

"Then let's..."

Zhu Kaishan would not support much civil war.

Most people under Zhu Chuanwen would not be too supportive.

It was by relying on this concept that Zhu Chuanwen was able to poach many of the talents of the Feng dynasty in the future, including the top generals, into his own hands.

The more people he has under his command, the more Zhu Chuanwen loses his most absolute control.

Every capable person has his own demands and will not completely become Zhu Chuanwen's puppet.

If it violates the core idea, Zhu Chuanwen will lose control of his power if he is not mentioned.

This is a force developed by Zhu Chuanwen, and there is no way it will get out of control.

But the loss of a lot of talents is certainly unavoidable.

"Let them do their work first. In the end, no matter what, doesn't it all depend on the strength in hand?"

If the Feng faction wants to take action against Jilin.

Zhu Chuanwen also had to express his attitude.

If the Feng system is willing to be a little more peaceful.

Zhu Chuanwen actually hopes that the status quo can be maintained for now.

The forces outside the pass are divided into three parts, maintaining stability among themselves.

As long as everyone maintains a peaceful situation and develops.

Zhu Chuanwen is definitely worthy of his current status, but in these small days, there are no fools to fool.

If he wants to become the king of Northeast China, Zhu Chuanwen will have to deal with life.

Life in southern Manchuria is different from life in northern Manchuria.

Northern Manchuria still belongs to Maozi's strength. There is no military power in Northern Manchuria, and the initiative lies with Zhu Chuanwen.

But when it came to Southern Manchuria, the lack of a navy alone was a huge flaw for Zhu Chuanwen.

It's hard to be tough.

It is more suitable to work with the Zhang family to deal with life and make things happen.

The Zhang family of the Feng family is really good at dealing with people and sophistication, and is best suited to play with life.

With only one province's strength, Zhu Chuanwen did not believe that the Feng clan dared to enter the pass.

In the case of occupying three provinces, the Zhang family of the Feng clan could be beaten to pieces within the customs.

If you dare to rely on the strength of a province to enter the pass, the Feng clan can be directly buried in the pass.

If a civil war can be avoided, it must be avoided.

If your strength is not enough in the first place, how can you fight with others if you have to fight within yourself.

"Captain, do we still need to recruit troops?"

"Recruit more troops. Our old brothers have been with us for many years. It's time for them to go home and live a peaceful life."

Standing at the door of the recruiting station, Zhu Chuanwen said to the people at the recruiting station.

In fact, there is no rush to expand the army. Five divisions are enough for Zhu Chuanwen to control his territory for the time being.

Not to mention, Zhu Chuanwen also had Republican and patrol teams from various places.

One hundred thousand combat-ready troops may not be enough, but it is certainly not an exaggeration to say there are seventy or eighty thousand soldiers.

But in the next few years, there is a high probability that there will be peace.

Zhu Chuanwen began to consider the issue of replacement.

Most of these soldiers now are in their twenties.

Twenty years from now, these people will not be able to fight, but they will definitely not be as good as young people.

Now is the right time to retire these soldiers.

These soldiers had been with Zhu Chuanwen for at least several years.

Not to mention having received military pay for so many years, he had been victorious in so many battles, and he also shared a lot of spoils.

After I went back, I could do whatever I wanted in a few hours.

He also had comrades with the garrisons in various places, so when he returned to the village, he was always a prominent figure.

They are all excellent candidates for village chiefs and village chiefs, which will greatly help Zhu Chuanwen control the grassroots level.

If you are willing, help train some villagers in this village and conduct some basic military training.

It is a matter of no harm whatsoever. If necessary, it is very possible to create an army of all people. If it is done well, Zhu Chuanwen will not know how he will lose.
