Lord of Industrialization

In mid-January, Frederick returned to Weissenburg with Susan, who was beginning to wake up from hibernation.

After the vacation, there are endless meetings, discussions, and infighting.

However, Frederick was the referee and watched quietly as his men racked their brains for ministerial positions in the government of the Duchy of Wesson.

He also took the time to pay attention to the "Garden" group that was captured at the end of last year.

Dennis and the others brought back a lot of documents, including many account books, including assassination business and flesh business.

Frederick asked someone to sort out the list of assassination business, first interrogate the people involved in the case, and then hang them on the wall after the interrogation.

Those abducted children and ordinary employees who have bloodless hands and are willing to go home will be given travel expenses, and those who are homeless can live in the Principality of Wesson with a new identity.

It's just that there is no record of the hirer in the ledger, all are replaced by numbers in order, and the last business is the assassination of Frederick.

After interrogation, the receptionist at the time learned that the other party asked someone to send a token and agreed to communicate through the wall in a hotel. The agreement was reached and the person was gone when he went to collect the money.

Frederick had no choice but to spread the news and blow up fish to see if he could scare people out.

He now focuses on government sector reform.

Previously, Weissen State had a total of 14 departments: the Ministry of Administration, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Taxation, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Police, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health, the Supreme Court and the Supreme Procuratorate. Departments, now the Ministry of Posts is newly built, the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Transport are separated from the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Land and Resources are separated from the Ministry of Administration, the Ministry of Justice is separated from the Supreme Court, and the Ministry of Affairs is reorganized into the military liaison department with the local government.

Among these twenty-one departments, the Supreme Court and the Supreme Prosecutor's Office are not part of the administrative system and are directly responsible to Grand Duke Wesson. The remaining departments and the Wesson Bank form the Supreme Council of Ministers of the Principality of Wesson.

The Supreme Council of Ministers is the highest administrative organ of the Principality of Wesson. The Minister of Administration also serves as the first chairman, which is equivalent to the Prime Minister of other countries. The highest chairman is the Grand Duke of Wesson.

In addition, Frederick also set up an anti-corruption agency directly under his own jurisdiction. He could not find a suitable leader for a while, so he asked Afu to take charge first.

As a result, Ah Fu finally selected a group of homeless people from the "garden" to join this department.

General Frederick placed power in the newly established headquarters, and he served as the supreme commander. The services included the army, navy and air force, with departments such as the staff department, equipment department, logistics department and training and mobilization department. He also established the states of Wesson, Lancini, There are four military districts in Faya and Putz.

It's just that there are too few managerial military talents under Frederick. The second generation knights who are the backbone are about thirty years old, and they are not willing to sit in the office.

This is also related to the fact that he has taken too big a step, and some departments that may be merged have to be separated.

In the end, in addition to the supreme commander, Frederick also served as commander of the navy and air force, commander of the four military regions, and minister of equipment.

Anyway, the shelf is set up, let’s fill it slowly.

By the time I finished all these government affairs, it was already February, and all the snow on the ground had melted.

The manor was very lively that day, and many soldiers came, ranging from senior officers such as Army Commander Franz Jr. and Chief of Staff Helmut to junior officers and soldiers such as trainee platoon leader Metzger and ordinary soldier Spike, as well as several There are dozens of female soldiers in the Air Force.

There is a row of wooden mannequins lined up in the yard, wearing the latest military uniforms.

According to Frederick's ideas and the final decision at the headquarters meeting, there are three types of military uniforms: regular uniforms, training uniforms and physical fitness uniforms. The tops of the physical fitness uniforms are divided into summer and winter. In addition, there are boxer briefs and sports vests for female soldiers. , long and short-sleeved T-shirts, long johns, cotton coats and trousers, windbreakers, rainproof cloaks, shoes and socks, belts, etc.

In the past ten years, local clothing trends have developed rapidly. Woolen suits and blacksmith jackets have gradually become mainstream because they are suitable for fast-paced life, and are deeply loved by the masses. Pedestrians on the street have gradually become familiar to Frederick. .

Military uniforms are also influenced by social trends. The army is generally composed of young people who also want to dress more fashionably.

The most important thing is that the combat mode of Wesson's army has also undergone fundamental changes. In the past, they lined up to kill people, but now they have to fight. This is the most inconvenient part of the original military uniform.

It has been determined that the daily attire will be a suit, the training uniform will be a jacket, the trousers for the physical fitness uniform will be overalls, a short-sleeved T-shirt in the summer, and a long-sleeved T-shirt and jacket in the winter.

Everyone came here today mainly to decide on the color and details of the clothing.

Frederick was the first to decide that the physical fitness uniforms should be navy blue. The whole army should be unified and there should be no different opinions.

The main reason is that these clothes are easy to wear during training and are in high demand. Navy blue dye is the cheapest, so the clothes are also cheap.

For girls in the Air Force, choosing military uniforms is not like going out to buy clothes. There is no disagreement about the color of the military uniforms. Regular dress uniforms are the same as training uniforms, white for officers and dark blue for soldiers.

The Army quickly reached a consensus that officers were blue and black, while soldiers were still dark gray.

Navy... Now there is only one person in the entire navy, Admiral Friedrich von Wesson. He quickly decided that officers should be dark blue, soldiers white, and the air force vice versa.

After everyone discussed, it was determined that the uniforms of officers and soldiers were different. The main difference was that the uniforms of officers were double-breasted and that of soldiers were single-breasted.

At the same time, it is determined to use stripes of different colors on the cuffs to distinguish different arms such as infantry and artillery in the Army, navigators and communications in the Air Force, as well as military ranks.

Several sets of options are also designed for the belts, epaulettes, armbands, collar badges, etc. on the formal wear.

The training uniform is simpler, based on jeans, with four pockets on the front and one on the left and right upper arms. The key is to make it easy to move.

Now the scale armor has been eliminated and replaced by an integrated breastplate made of steel plates. The steel plate of the heavy-duty breastplate is 2mm thick and weighs almost 4kg, which can protect the torso and groin area.

This weight is heavy for ordinary people, but it is nothing for those with extraordinary strength. The upper limit of the human body is very high. Proper exercise, proper diet, and proper rest are enough to make soldiers have higher physical abilities than ordinary people. .

Light breastplates are much simpler. They just insert thinner steel sheets into the vest to protect the torso.

It is also matched with individual soldier carrying equipment. The ordinary infantry carrying equipment can hold four peashooter magazines and four revolver bullets. It can also hang grenades, water bottles, gas masks, and carry an engineer shovel on the back. .

Spike and several other soldiers put on their training uniforms, breastplates, and carrying equipment on the spot. They were fully armed and performed a set of tactical moves on the pasture of the manor. Then they took off their breastplates and did another set.

They feel that the new military uniforms are easy to move around, and the reinforced knees and elbows are less likely to wear out.

The most popular military uniform is the trench coat "designed" by Frederick, which is a full reference to the trench coat worn by the male protagonist in the movie "Casablanca". It adopts a large lapel and double-breasted button shape, a wide belt to tie the waist, and a shoulder strap on the right shoulder. A shoulder pad, beautiful and practical.

It took two days to determine the military uniforms. After the end, Frederick held a dinner party, during which he was drunk to pieces by the second-generation knights who had grown up together.

The next morning, Frederick woke up feeling a little pain in his head. When he opened his eyes, he saw the familiar ceiling and the strange girl on the bed.

He didn't know how Hua Qiulei got into his bed. He only knew that the clothes on both of them were intact and nothing happened.

"You're awake." Valqiulei felt that Frederick was awake, so she stopped pretending to be asleep, with a blush on her face.

Frederick asked depressedly: "Why are you here?"

Valqiulei buried her face in his arm and whispered: "The aunts said I was too impatient. You can't talk about the baby until you have an heir later, but you can practice more now."

Frederick asked with a black line on his face: "Do you know what the so-called practice is?"

"I know." Hua Qiulei was a little angry when she saw that he treated her like a child. "When I was stationed in the village, the bishop and my sister got married. They slept in the box bed next to me. The two babies my sister gave birth to were still alive. I delivered all the babies.”

Frederick was speechless.
