The war was far from over, and there were still tens of thousands of Japanese troops in Antai's 10th Division, Jinzhou, Yingkou, and the Liaodong Peninsula! In addition to the immigrants and ronins of the island countries on the Liaodong Peninsula for more than 30 years, it is conservatively estimated that Lushun alone can gather 20,000 trained reservists and ronin warriors.

The defense of Mukden was handed over to a regiment of the 3rd Division, while other troops and heavy artillery units were preparing for the southward movement.

After yesterday's street fighting, Fengtian City has been fully recovered, but after the bombing of the Japanese army in 918 and the siege of the Zhenbei Army yesterday, many buildings in the city have been reduced to ruins.

In the barracks outside the west of the city, more than 30,000 people from the four brigades of the puppet army who had been detained were being trained and ideologically reformed by the regiment, and the Red Police instructors were constantly instilling national consciousness and national conviction in the soldiers.

As for the nearly 60,000 captured Japanese soldiers of the 19th, 8th, and 20th Divisions, they were all placed in the newly established concentration camp near the military camp in the south of the city.

The residents of Fengtian City listened to the gunfire and artillery fire for a day yesterday and were terrified, and it was not until this morning that the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army posted notices to calm the people and the incorporated police force began to appease the people, and they knew that the Huaxia army had fought back! The little devils in Fengtian City were all taken prisoner!

The Fengtian 460 Provisional Military Government immediately began the work of reassuring and rebuilding the city of Fengtian, and even Li Du, who was suffering from the cold, dragged his newly recovered body and took the train from Changchun to personally sit in charge of the Mukden Provisional Military Government, handle the work of reassuring the people and reconstruction, and supervise the formation of the garrison troops.

Xue Lin was greatly moved, and appointed Li Du as the chief of Fengtian, with full responsibility for the post-war reconstruction of Fengtian, and even Xue Lin was ready to wait for the Liaodong Peninsula to drive out the devils, and then elected Li Du as the chief civil affairs officer of the three eastern provinces.

After all, Li Du is already in his fifties, and after experiencing the last cold, he is no longer suitable to continue his military career, retired to the rear to engage in politics, and has already revealed his intentions to Xue Lin several times when he was in Changchun.

At the Gutun Station of Emperor Fengtian, more than 12,000 officers and men of the Third Division were boarding the southbound train in turn, and more than 300 trucks equipped with the Third Division were also carrying the soldiers one after another, and then dragged a Type 92 infantry gun, even a 105-mm howitzer and a 75-mm field gun.

Feng Hai was commanding his Third Division to go south in high spirits and rush to the next battle on the peninsula.

Xue Lin did not go south with the Third Division, but went to the Fengtian Arsenal with Li Du to inspect.

Fengtian Arsenal, established in 1921 by the Fengtian warlord Zhang Dashuai, officially known as Fengtian Ordnance Factory, Dongsan Province Arsenal, Fengtian Military Institute and the 90th Factory of the Ordnance Industry Administration, in 1921, Zhang Dashuai set up a repair and manufacture of guns and ammunition factory, called Fengtian Ordnance Factory.

In 1928, it was expanded again, adding a gun factory and a light machine gun factory, with more than 8,000 machines, which can be said to be the largest arsenal in the country at present!

Walking in the huge factory building of the Fengtian Arsenal, looking at the tall machinery, Xue Lin felt the charm of heavy industry for the first time.

"This factory is bigger than five years ago!" beside Xue Lin, Li Du, who was wearing a thick snow fox coat, looked at the 240mm cannon barrel that was mechanically prototyped, and his eyes were confused.

I think he also came to the Fengtian Arsenal back then, and the celestial people at that time, and now the arsenal, which has expanded several times, makes him feel even more emotional.

Xue Lin sighed, stretched out his hand and touched the finished barrel: "Yes, look at these 240 mm barrels, the entire Kwantung Army is only a few 240 cannons! We are obviously about to catch up with them." "

240-mm cannons! Not only can the military heavy artillery and coastal defense batteries, but more importantly, the main artillery weapons of the navy's warships! With the Fengtian Arsenal now capable of trial-producing 240 millimeters, as long as there are no mistakes in the operation of the arsenal, it will be able to manufacture 240-mm naval guns within two or three years!

This is a heavy cruiser-class naval gun!

Even within ten years, the technical precipitation can be completed, and the trial production of the 380-mm main ship gun required by the battleship can begin!

It's not just a cannon.

Fengtian Arsenal has the only domestic special precision testing instruments and equipment for military industry, with an annual output of more than 60,000 rifles of various types, more than 1,000 light and heavy machine guns, more than 150 field artillery, mountain artillery and heavy artillery, nearly 180 million rounds of ammunition, more than 20 rounds of various artillery shells (CHDF), and a large number of explosives.

Next, Xue Lin and Li Du also inspected the warehouse, which contained 370 Japanese-style 37-type flat-fire guns, 108 Japanese-style 75 field guns, 300 Austrian-style 76 field guns, 300 Austrian-style 100-mm howitzers, 12 Japanese-style 105 cannons, and 21 Japanese-style 150 howitzers produced by the Fengtian Arsenal.

According to the captured statistics of the Japanese army, there were more than 95,000 rifles of various types, more than 2,500 machine guns, more than 2,600 pistols, more than 1.8 billion rounds of ammunition of various types, more than 500,000 shells, as well as a large number of gunpowder, mines, various equipment, and semi-finished products.

"The biggest mistake in the life of the young marshal is not to let go of a shot and lose the three eastern provinces......" Looking at the list of so many weapons, equipment and munitions on the Japanese army's statistical report, Li Du couldn't help but sigh.

"If the young marshal insisted at the beginning, how could the little devil take advantage!" Li Du looked up to the sky and sighed, so many arms and weapons, the little devil was so cheap for nothing.

"Brother, now is not the time to sigh for this. Xue Lin patted Li Du's arm and said, "The top priority is to restart the Fengtian Arsenal first!"

"Yes, yes, restart the Fengtian Arsenal!" Li Du clenched his fists, since the young marshal has run away, then let us people defend the northeast!

"Xue Si, how are the workers of the arsenal getting together?" Xue Lin and Li Du asked Xue Si as they walked out.

"Commander-in-chief, there are more than 36,000 employees in the Mukden Arsenal, most of whom fled when the Japanese occupied it, and at present we have only gathered less than 5,000 people, and we can only start part of the factory. "

At the beginning of the Fengtian Arsenal, the workers were unwilling to make weapons and ammunition for the Japanese army, so they fled one after another, and many people withdrew to the Guannai with the Northeast Army, and it was not easy to find 5,000 people in Fengtian City.

Xue Lin instructed: "Let these workers come back first, restart the arsenal, and then post notices in the three eastern provinces to recruit workers, and your intelligence department will also be active in Beiping and Tianjin, publicize the intention of restarting the Fengtian Arsenal, and find a way to turn those workers back." "

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!" Xue Sili saluted.

Subsequently, Xue Lin and Li Du inspected the rifle factory and the ammunition factory, met with representatives of the more than 5,000 workers who had been gathered, and appointed them as temporary directors of various factories.

So, on the afternoon of the second day after the recovery of Fengtian City, this can be said to be the largest arsenal in China has begun to slowly re-operate!

This huge arsenal, which is the envy of even the little devils, is slowly recovering.
