Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 385 It's Harvest Time Again

Being able to produce heavy artillery is undoubtedly a huge improvement for Fengjun. Zhang Tinglan was very happy when he heard the news.

"Old Xiong, has the problem of steel for the production of artillery been solved? We need mass production, and there is absolutely no way if we don't have enough special steel!"

"No problem!" Xiong Mengyuan said with a smile: "Commander-in-Chief, Anshan Iron and Steel has received news that they are sure to produce steel for heavy artillery. Although the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant has not been fully completed, they will be able to produce it in small batches within this year. Some steel is used to supply military supplies, and with this steel, our cannons will be available!"

The problem of materials has always been a big problem. At present, some arsenals in China can imitate artillery and even produce warships, but all the key materials needed are imported from foreign countries, so the production capacity is limited and the quality is difficult to pass. Now Fengjun can solve this bottleneck. , For Zhang Tinglan, it is also a great thing.

"Xia Han and the others didn't brag, did they, can they really produce it?" [

"Of course there is no problem. The equipment of the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant was aided by France to Russia. In fact, from the very beginning, this iron and steel plant was positioned as military production. Otherwise, Russia also has a steel output of several million tons. They imported such a steel plant with less than [-] tons. What's the point of the iron and steel plant!"

Xiong Mengyuan continued: "When Xia Han and the others were building the steel plant, they also sorted out various technical materials they got from Russia, and asked the technicians who came with them, and basically figured out the formula of the gun steel. I also went there I have seen that they are stepping up their exploration, and I believe it will be produced soon!"

Zhang Tinglan heard this.I didn't expect to find a treasure, and Fengjun's steel reached the sky in one step.It is a great thing to be able to directly produce gun steel. It has solved the problem of materials and formed a powerful artillery. At this time, Zhang Tinglan finally showed a happy smile.

"Commander-in-Chief, in addition to the materials, I dismantled more than 400 artillery scopes from the equipment of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. We can't produce them now, so we can only use these things to make up the number, but these may not be usable. Before self-production, it is best to purchase a batch from abroad."

"Well, the big powers may not sell this thing to us. It seems that they can only rely on smuggling. I will arrange how to operate it. You can just be in charge of military production!"

A total of 36 mountain cannons were transported this time, which can equip an entire artillery regiment, and follow-up weapons will continue to be transported. With these things, Zhang Tinglan's confidence is even more sufficient.The size of the entire border guards was adjusted again, and an artillery division was formally formed.

This field artillery division has three artillery regiments, one equipped with 120mm howitzers and the other two equipped with 76mm mountain guns.Although Fengjun obtained a batch of Austro-Hungarian 150mm howitzers, the equipment was not Russian after all.Moreover, the number was not enough, so Zhang Tinglan was not included in the artillery division.Instead, it will wait until the Fengjun has made a breakthrough in heavy artillery technology and produced a qualified 150 [-]mm howitzer before it can be equipped in large quantities.

In addition to forming a field artillery division, Zhang Tinglan also officially approved the formation of an air defense regiment. The arsenal must step up its breakthrough and produce special anti-aircraft machine guns and artillery. In fact, not only the frontier defense army, but the entire Feng army must work hard on air defense. After all The Feng army is surrounded by enemies. Not only is Russia's air threat, Japan is also a scourge. The army must be prepared to deal with it, and the formation of air defense forces is already very urgent.

In addition to these adjustments, Zhang Tinglan purchased more than 5000 war horses from Inner Mongolia, and formed two special pack horse transportation regiments, and the original logistics force continued to expand.

Regarding the many actions of the border guards, many people think that Zhang Tinglan had to prepare for the threat of war from Russia, but only Zhang Tinglan knew the real intention. He established a field artillery division and strengthened the transportation force for the purpose of dispatching troops. Preparations for intervention in Russia.

It has now entered September of 1917, and the Russian revolution is just around the corner. Although the Russian army in the Far East continues to harass and harass the Feng army, they are already at the end of their strength, and they are strong on the outside and on the inside.

Zhang Tinglan has received accurate information that Kerensky, the prime minister of the provisional "government", launched the Kerensky Offensive named after him, trying to defeat his old enemy, the Germans. Another disastrous defeat at the hands of Germany.

The military is war-weary and the people are full of dissatisfaction. The most urgent hope of the Russian people is to withdraw from this war, and the provisional "government" cannot satisfy their hope for peace. The people naturally set their sights on the majority party, and all the conditions are ripe. A red wave is about to blow in Russia.

It can be said that from now on, the threat of Russia has been greatly lifted. What is left is not that the Russians bully Fengjun, but that Fengjun asks the driver to drive out, take advantage of the opportunity of the Russian Civil War, regain the homeland, and change the bad strategic situation.

The Russians also seemed to feel the internal troubles. After entering September, Russia's harassment of the Fengjun decreased significantly, and Zhang Tinglan was finally able to spare time. He returned to Harbin from Manchuria.

In September, the three northeastern provinces are almost at harvest time, and corn will be a little later. Rice and soybeans have already begun to be harvested. After last year's trial planting, the rice in the northeast is sweet and delicious, and has received widespread admiration. The area planted with rice this year It has increased greatly, exceeding 300 million mu. Seeing the harvest, the heavy ears of rice were bent down, and the farmers who planted rice were all rejoicing.

Compared with traditional sorghum, it takes more effort to grow rice, and a large number of water conservancy facilities need to be built, and a large amount of water is diverted for irrigation. If the water cannot keep up, the rice will be useless.Fortunately, after the establishment of the farm, a large amount of people's power can be concentrated, and the northeast is not a place short of water, so it is not difficult to build canals.

Judging from this year's situation, the rice harvest in the Northeast will definitely be huge. Zhang Tinglan is not the only one who is concerned about the rice harvest in the Northeast. The Japanese also care about it. This small island country has a population of more than 5000 million, and it will expand to 1 in the future. More than [-] people, it is definitely not enough to rely on the production of the four islands.

They have already set their sights on the three provinces in the Northeast.Many Japanese grain merchants rushed to the three northeastern provinces, wanting to import a batch of rice cheaply.supply domestic needs. [

In addition to rice, soybeans are also in sight. Compared with rice, soybeans are more profitable. Many Japanese businessmen have hired Chinese compradors and set up a big net for acquisitions, ready to make a fortune.

These guys are gearing up, and Zhang Tinglan is also preparing.In the past, they were not strong enough, so they could only watch the profits of soybeans fall into the pockets of the Japanese.

Now that Fengjun has enough strength, plus the oil extraction plant has been built, and a large sum of money has just been searched in the pass, many aspects have matured, and Zhang Tinglan is ready to fight a soybean defense battle preparation.

After returning to Harbin, Zhang Tinglan kept sending messages to all parties.Mobilize funds, establish and set up collection points, and prepare transport capacity.Then he sent a telegram to Kerry, inquiring about the situation of the oil mill, and Kerry also sent a gratifying reply that the oil mill had been established.The machinery and equipment shipped from the United States have also been installed and are now ready for production.

"Everything is ready, only Dongfeng owes it! Xinyao, you say, just soybeans, how much money can you make this year?"

"How much money you make is up to you. When a woman is married, she should take care of her husband and raise her children. Honestly, you shouldn't care about it. You don't know what you shouldn't know. Sometimes you know it, but you have to pretend to be confused! "

"What a mess!" Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Xinyao, didn't you dare to go to Fengtian by yourself, and even show your face to save people, why are you timid now? Who told you that?"

"Of course it's my mother, otherwise who would tell me this! You are now the commander-in-chief of the frontier defense force, and you are under the spotlight. You cannot be discredited. You can't contact outsiders easily, and don't care about foreign affairs!"

"Mother-in-law is also confused, why tell you this!"

Zhou Xinyao's two fingers had already reached Zhang Tinglan's weakness, "Zhuoyan, what are you talking about my mother?"

"Ma'am, please be merciful. I dare not slander my mother-in-law." As she spoke, Zhang Tinglan stretched out her hand and held Zhou Xinyao in her arms, letting her upturned buttocks sit on top of her strong thighs, tender and soft. After rubbing lightly for a while, Zhang Tinglan couldn't help but her heart fluttered, and her graceful body kept appearing in her mind.

The newly married beauty, moistened by the rain for the first time, is full of attractiveness from top to bottom, and is more attractive than before. Zhang Tinglan embraces Zhou Xinyao's body, puts her face on her fragrant shoulders, and breathes, The hot air kept attacking Zhou Xinyao's ears.

"Zhuoyan, you haven't explained the truth yet, why do you say my mother is confused? If I am not satisfied with your explanation, I will sleep outside by myself tonight!"

This threat doesn't have much force. On the contrary, Zhou Xinyao's mind is still imagining charming scenes. As the saying goes, a little farewell is better than a newly married. A lot of things have been put aside, and the intention is to cater to each other. As long as this couple has a little time, they will get tired of being together, let alone a long night.

"Xinyao, what my mother-in-law said is not wrong, but it was the request of a lady in the past. Now the times are different, and women have to hold up half the sky. Besides, I don't want you to be like a vase, Just put it at home, men have men's careers, women can also have their own careers, do whatever you want, I will definitely support you with all my strength!"

"Then you are not afraid that I will show up in public and attract criticism from some people?"

"There's nothing to be afraid of." Zhang Tinglan took her jade hand, pressed it lightly on her huge chest muscles, and said with a smile: "Xinyao, our husband and wife are connected, and you are in my heart. There is nothing to worry about!"

When Zhou Xinyao heard this, she couldn't help but her heart fluttered, and her delicate body full of "sex" was tightly attached to Zhang Tinglan, and gradually melted into a person...

"Brother Seven, what are you busy with?" A farmer shouted to his old neighbor with a smile.

"What else can I do? Isn't it like this every year? When the soybeans are taken back, we should hurry up and send them to the county. Those little devils who collect soybeans say a lot. If you go late, you won't be able to sell them at a good price. Maybe You have to send teams for several days, and the wives and children in the family are all pointing at this soy bean to live, so you should hurry up!"

"Brother Seven, the limelight has changed this year, I don't think you need to worry!"

"How did it become?"[

"They have announced the date of the acquisition, and there is no need to send it all the way to the county. The acquisition point is in the village. I also tell you a good news. The minimum purchase price has been announced. Compared with last year's It's fifty cents more."

"What, there is such a good thing? Don't lie to me, I don't believe that the little devil can have such a kind heart!"

"What's the matter? It's not the Japanese who collect soybeans, but our own oil mill. It is said that the payment is still in cash. One hand pays and one hand delivers the goods. It will not be worse than us. If you say that the current "government" is more It’s much stronger than before, really think of us!”

"Then tell me quickly, when will you start collecting?"

"There are still five days left, Seventh Brother, tell the big guys that soybeans don't need to be sold to the Japanese this year." (To be continued.)
