Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1236

"This Far West Dispatch Army is composed of elite soldiers selected from the Second Corps and the Third Corps. Almost all officers at all levels have undergone advanced training in the Army Lecture Hall. They can faithfully perform all tasks."

Somewhere on the outskirts of the capital, the officers and staff officers of the military department were all around Chu Yun, while standing below were about a thousand elite officers and soldiers. Although they hadn't experienced the battlefield for a long time, they had a killing spirit.Just because there is no war doesn't mean that they are the people who live in poverty.

On the contrary, they carry out arduous training every day and have exercises every month. They have various imaginary enemies, and maintain a high level of combat effectiveness by "fighting wits and courage" with imaginary enemies.Except for the various units within the Kyushu Army, no other unit has such a high-intensity training volume.

Moreover, the strong industrial production capacity provided them with enough guns and ammunition for their training. This was an elite force that was smashed out with modern training methods and a lot of gold and silver.

In front of the rows of soldiers standing upright, there are four Napoleon field guns and two Gatling machine guns.As if they were being inspected by Chu Yun, they held their heads high, wanting to let Chu Yun see their most energetic side, and prove that the military department's investment in them was the right choice!

"It looks a bit like a modern army." Chu Yun had high expectations for this special land force.

In addition to the twelve regiments of infantry, the War Department established several armies for special combat missions.They are well-equipped, streamlined, and spend more than ordinary troops.

Under normal circumstances, such troops are used to deploy overseas to perform special tasks.

Due to limited resources in overseas expeditions, it is generally impossible to send a large number of overseas troops. At this time, it is necessary to win with quality.

"Many of their officers have learned the languages ​​of Western countries in the army lecture hall, and are proficient in at least one foreign language. Among them, those with better language talents are proficient in two to three foreign languages. Together, they are enough to deal with The complicated situation of the wars between the local countries." The Prussian officer in the Army Lecture Hall said to Chu Yun.

In order to train the new army, Chu Yun chose the Prussian model in the middle and late 19th century to train the army, and the British Empire model to train the navy. Most of the instructors in the army lecture hall are Prussian and Austrian officers from the 19th century, while the navy lecture hall is British officers, French officers.

It can be said that the Kyushu Army is absorbing the technology and experience of all military powers in the 19th century to create an unprecedentedly powerful army.

In order to successfully open up overseas markets and replace the Spanish Empire as the world hegemony, Chu Yun plans to manage Portsmouth, the bridgehead in Europe.

To deal with European countries, a group of military officers who can communicate normally with the locals are needed to cooperate vertically and horizontally.

It is for this purpose that the Far West Expeditionary Army was summoned here for training.

The officer leading this special force is Sun Chuanting.

"Have you read the military plan?" Chu Yun summoned Sun Chuanting to ask.

"My subordinates have carefully reviewed it no less than ten times. If the Western countries develop according to the situation listed in the plan, we will take corresponding measures. If the plan does not match the reality, then we will make independent decisions within the scope of our authority. Safeguard our interests and protect our businessmen." Sun Chuanting replied.

He also never imagined that one day he would lead the army to the West.

"This military flag is awarded to you. This is the unique military flag of your Far West Dispatch Army. Although you only have 1000 people now, as our influence in the West expands, we will continue to send soldiers there. Achieve what we want." Chu Yun ordered a military flag to be awarded to Sun Chuanting.

This is a banner with a dragon head and two swords. Behind the ferocious dragon head, there are two crossed sword patterns, and a chilling air rushes towards you!

The two swords are based on Gan Jiang and Mo Xie.

Sun Chuanting took over the ferocious dragon-headed double-sword flag, and it took a lot of effort to be able to wave it.

The officers and soldiers of the Far West Expedition Army looked at this unique military flag belonging to their own troops, and soon all Western countries would realize the terrifying military power represented by this flag.

"This flag has the shape of a fierce beast and a sharp weapon. The empire bestowed this flag on you to deter all enemies with absolute force," Chu Yun said.

"We will live up to the expectations of the empire, and those who offend us will be punished even if they are far away!" Sun Chuanting declared with a group of soldiers dispatched from the Far West.

Many young and elite soldiers are full of enthusiasm. They will take a boat across the ocean to Europe to fight for the prestige of the empire!
The Fourth Fleet is the navy, and its ability to fight on land is limited. It can play a role in blocking coastlines and port cities, but it cannot play a decisive role.A crack infantry would need to be dropped into the base at Portsmouth in order to meddle in European affairs.

The Far West Expedition is the general term for a series of land troops that Chu Yun plans to deploy to Portsmouth. At present, there is only a mixed force of [-] infantry and artillery led by Sun Chuanting. How many people will be sent in the future depends on the changes in the European situation. .

Isn't Charles I just wanting to borrow troops?There is a price to be paid for borrowing soldiers.

Chu Yun has been thinking about how to trick his allies.

The first step in intervening in European affairs was to dare the British Civil War and the bourgeois revolution.

After Britain has obtained enough privileges, Britain will then be used as a pedal to open up the European continent's market and force them to accept "free trade".

Chu Yun planned this way. Of course, he could not have predicted that his behavior would cause the 30-year war in Europe. The Ottoman Empire, Mughal Empire, Persian Third Empire, Tsarist Russia, Crimean Khanate, Huge changes have taken place in the Kazakh Khanate.

It was not the European countries that first had friction with the Eastern Empire he led, but the Ottoman Empire, which spanned three continents and monopolized the land Silk Road.

However, Chu Yun couldn't think of killing this point. He can only lay out the layout according to the history he knew before, but can't control the tiny variables-the butterfly effect.

Later, Sun Chuanting proved that the plan given to him by Chu Yun was very accurate in judging the situation of European countries, but it was a mess when judging the Ottoman Empire and other empires between the East and the West.

"My lord, are we sending too many troops to the West? In addition to the ships and troops sent to the West this time, we have already deployed more than a dozen sailing gunboats, one Ironclad ships, 4000 naval soldiers, and 1000 dispatched troops. The military expenditure to maintain overseas operations is much higher than that along the coast, and such expenses are only through the trade of Western companies, and it is difficult to recover the cost." The official of the Ministry of Finance complained to Chu Yun.

In this era, sending overseas troops is a costly thing.

"Have you heard of compensation for land cession?" Chu Yun asked back.
