After a few days, the system interface of the city was opened again, except for an additional building under construction and newly recruited cavalry, there were no other changes.

The amount of artillery foundry is 750 gold coins. It is funny to say that the cost of recruiting a cavalry division of 64 companies of 2880 cavalry is not even more expensive than building an artillery foundry. With the assistance of the system, Charlie recruited the cost of the first cavalry division It only takes less than six hundred gold coins to convert into gold coins.

Fortunately, the currency unit for recruiting the army is the national currency, otherwise, Charlie would never be able to expand the army at will - this is simply the hard work.

Charlie also found a problem. The system he has is not all copied from the game Napoleon Total War. The training time of the musketeers and cavalry units in the game takes two rounds, which is two months in reality, but in reality he only It takes a month to become an army.

However, the construction time of the building has not changed. The artillery foundry will still take three months to complete, which means that until then Charlie can only use the existing artillery.

This had little effect on his plans, according to Charlie's idea that before Sandy dragged the country into the abyss of the Second Civil War, apart from a symbolic military action against the rebels entrenched in Belvin, he was in On the bright side, they will honestly stay in Proden City.

As for the dark...

Let’s put it this way, most of the old and new nobles in Provence were dragged into the warships of the rebels during the civil war, and the National Assembly also convicted them of treason. Officials in each city are also Santos MPs sent from the capital.

Coincidentally, Vasili, the mayor of the capital city of Provence, is a high-status member of the Santos party. The suppression of his position in the party alone is enough for those mayors to curry favor with Vasili, and Charlie is going to ask Vasili to come forward. Those mayors are under their command to ensure that they can control the entire province of Provence as soon as possible when they go north in the future.

Of course, the subordinates here refer to the subordinates of Vasily. After losing the conversion authority, Charlie can only rely on the barracks in the city to convert the natives into soldiers of the system. It is obviously impossible for those high-level mayors to be sent in for military training...

It's a joke, they came here from the capital to become officials. Who would want to go to the barracks for training with those big-headed soldiers?

To gain the allegiance of others, it is not only the option of using the system to switch. As the saying goes, money can make a ghost run the mill. As long as the money is in place, the entire province of Provence is not what Charlie said?

Under Charlie's instruction, Vasili began to frequently contact with other mayors in the province of Provence. In order to successfully win those mayors, he took out 10,000 gold coins from the system treasury for Vassil to operate. He always believed in money. Offensive is the most effective way in the world. There is nothing you can't do. The only reason you can't do it is that you don't have enough money.

As he expected, the new mayors in the province fell quickly one by one under Vassil's money offensive, and soon became Vasili's "own people", but Vasili did not stop because of this. Knowing that little devils are hard to deal with, after subduing the city's rulers, they began to launch an offensive against the officials in the city hall, and achieved great results.

While Vasily launched the money offensive, Gottlieb Weisberg, the special agent of the system reward, also embarked on the journey north to Ankerton with the funds allocated to him by Charlie, and he went north with him. Among the more than 1,200 soldiers from the former disciplinary camp, 1,000 were left behind to become police officers, and the other 200 or so went north in batches. They will become the first batch of the Wisberg gang. member.

Time, soon to July 1751.

It has been more than a month since Charlie became the actual ruler of Proden City, and not much has happened in this more than a month, except that the war in the eastern Belvin Province is still burning, the entire Provence Province is immersed in a rare peace. among.

However, the 1st Cavalry Division that Charlie recruited through the system was trained into an army, and they were immediately incorporated into the battle sequence of the 4th Army. In addition, the manufacture of tin cans that Charlie was personally responsible for finally produced the first batch of finished products. The first batch of cans were fully enclosed rectangular containers. www. The inner wall around uukanshu.com is fused with thicker iron plates, so it is not as light as Charlie imagined.

In addition, the can is not as easy to open as Charlie's later cans. The whole can is square and can only be inserted into the edge of the top sheet with a sharp bayonet to pry the top open, and then you can enjoy the food inside.

After accepting the first batch of finished products, Charlie decided to order a batch first, and at the same time let the artisans continue to improve, to try to reduce the weight of the can itself, and then he changed a food processing factory in his name to produce cans At the beginning of the factory, the food in cans was only cooked fish and seafood, which was sterilized by high temperature steam and supplied to the army.

Just producing canned food can't satisfy Charlie. As the so-called war is the first driving force for the development of science and technology, he turned his attention to weapons research.

Similar to the earth, the rifled guns of this era have been used in the battlefield, but because of the unstable performance of the firearms, the rifled guns, like the howitzers, are only equipped on a small scale. In the Rumont Army, they are mainly equipped by the rangers. Their combat function is not much different from that of Charlie's Chasseurs.

The rifled gun in this world can accurately hit the enemy even at a distance of 200 meters, but its Achilles' heel is still the same - high processing cost, difficult to reload, and slow to launch.

Not to mention the difficulty of carving rifling in the barrel for the time being, the difficulty of loading and firing is enough to pass the rifle. When the two armies are in a head-to-head confrontation, the loading speed is too slow enough to cause our side to suffer more casualties and increase the defeat. Therefore, only hunting soldiers as auxiliary arms will be equipped with rifled guns with high accuracy and long range. If Charlie wants to promote rifled guns in the army, he must first solve the two shortcomings of difficulty in loading and slow firing.
