"In that case, let's turn off the street lights now and turn them on at night. By the way, Aiqing remember to come to the Imperial Study Room tomorrow. I want to give you something." Zhao Wen looked at Song Yingxing.

Afterwards, Zhao Wen wandered around the power plant, inspected the power plant, and then returned to the palace.

After Zhao Wen returned to the palace, he took out all the light bulbs stored in the palace and had them installed on the lamp sockets in the palace.

As for Zhao Wen's imperial study room, since no desk lamps were made, the number of light bulbs was relatively large.

After the palace installed all the electric lights, it was already dusk.

As dusk approached, all the lights in the palace were turned on.

For the sake of beauty, most of the electric lights in the palace are covered with exquisite covers.

Because there are electric lights, the eunuchs and maids in the palace don't have to work hard.

Zhao Wen sat quietly in the imperial study room, and began to review the memorial by the light of the electric lamp.

As the territory grows larger, Zhao Wen needs to review more and more memorials.

The electric lights in the imperial study room illuminated the entire imperial study room, and Zhao Wen sat quietly in the imperial study room, correcting the memorials one by one with a Chinese ink pen.

At this moment, Zhao Wen saw a copy sent by the Military Academy.

This note was sent by the Military Academy when Zhao Wen was going to the power plant.

The content inside is the plan to attack Huguang and Shandong.

In the excerpt, Song Hu and Zhao Daniu are designated as the main generals to attack Huguang and Shandong, leading 16 regular troops and reserve troops, [-] regular troops and reserve troops to attack Huguang and Shandong respectively, with a total of [-] soldiers and horses.

Because Henan and Shaanxi have been captured, and Zhao Wen's enthronement ceremony is to be attended, Zhao Daniu and Song Hu have already returned to Xuanzhen.

Zhao Wen has also ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor now, so he can't lead the troops in almost every battle like before.

Now Zhao Wen has about 20 regular troops, but Zhao Daniu and Liu Wu command almost [-] soldiers and horses in Shaanxi and Sichuan.

It didn't take long for Shaanxi to be taken, and these soldiers and horses couldn't come back for a while.But Sichuan has not yet been taken, and the soldiers and horses under Liu Wu's command cannot leave.

After Zhao Wen returned to Xuanzhen, he began to ask the reserve army to exchange the soldiers and horses left behind in Henan and put them in Shanxi. Therefore, the number of regular troops in Zhao Wen's hands now is about the same.

As for the reserve soldiers and horses in Zhao Wen's hands, the number is much larger than that of the regular army.Moreover, when Zhao Wen attacked Henan's back cover, Liu Wenzhong, under Zhao Wen's order, recruited a large number of new recruits and filled them into the reserve force.

The configuration of the reserve army is far inferior to that of Zhao Wen's regular army. In the reserve army, there are only one 56 and a half for every five people, one 56 punch for every twenty people, and one light machine gun for every thirty people.

As for heavy artillery, they are even rarer, and some are only mortars and 40 fire.

This configuration was decided by Zhao Wending. Although the weapons and equipment of the reserve army did not dare to compare with the regular army, compared with the Ming army, it was still crushing.

According to Zhao Wen's arrangement, these reserve soldiers and horses will stay in the place in the future, so the weapons and equipment do not need to be too powerful.

The area of ​​Huguang in this era was very large, and its jurisdiction included Hubei, Hunan, and parts of Guangxi, Guangdong, and Guizhou. It was the largest province in this era, and its governing seat was located in Wuchang.Therefore, when attacking Huguang, more soldiers and horses are needed.

In fact, [-] regular troops can sweep Huguang, but it will take longer.

In addition to appointing Song Hu and Zhao Daniu as the leading generals, there are also a series of military arrangements, which list all the rules and regulations for attacking Huguang and Shandong.

Zhao Wen read the scriptures, and finally wrote a "ke" on it with a Chinese ink pen.

Zhao Wen closed the booklet, put it on the table, and looked at Chen Donglai, "Send this booklet to the Military Academy after dawn tomorrow. Tell the people in the Military Academy to act according to the contents of this booklet. Try to arrange everything properly within half a month."

"Understood!" Chen Donglai bowed and saluted, remembering Zhao Wen's instructions in his heart.

Zhao Wen began to review the memorial again until midnight.

After reviewing all the memorials within a day, Zhao Wen stretched, yawned, and then went back to the bedroom to sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Chen Donglai followed Zhao Wen's instructions and sent the documents sent by the Military Academy back to the Military Academy.

After the military academy received the return papers, it immediately took action.

All of a sudden, the whole Xuan Town became busy again.

On the third day after the military academy began to act, Song Hu and Zhao Daniu took the train to Taiyuan with their entourage and began to rectify the troops.

Carloads of supplies also departed from Xuanzhen to be transported to Taiyuan Prefecture.

Because of the existence of the Military Academy, Zhao Wen didn't have to deal with these things himself like before.

The time was so tense and busy, and Zhao Wen sat quietly in the imperial study room to review the memorial as usual.

Two days before the official dispatch of troops, Song Yingxing came to the imperial study and reported good news to Zhao Wen.

"Your Majesty, the welding machine has been successfully manufactured." Song Yingxing stood in the imperial study with an excited face, and said to Zhao Wen who was sitting in the upper seat.

In fact, the principle of the electric welding machine is not very complicated. With the resources Zhao Wen has now, it can be manufactured completely.

Although the advanced ones cannot be produced, the backward ones can still be produced.

The principle of the electric welding machine is very simple. It uses the high-temperature arc generated when the positive and negative poles are short-circuited instantaneously to melt the electrode and the material to be welded, so as to combine the objects to be contacted.

Its structure is very simple, it is a high-power transformer.

Electric welding machines can be divided into AC electric welding machines and DC electric welding machines. AC electric welding machines do not need to convert alternating current into direct current, and are relatively simple to manufacture. Therefore, the electric welding machine that Zhao Wen asked Song Yingxing to manufacture is AC electric welding machines.

After all, the electricity generated by the power plant is exactly alternating current, and there is no need to design additional alternating current converters.

Because of the lack of rubber and no plastic, Song Yingxing's electric welding machine casing is made of hard wood.

It may not be as good as rubber and plastic, but for Zhao Wen now, it is completely sufficient.

"Not bad, it's really good to be able to manufacture the electric welding machine in such a short period of time." Zhao Wen said with a smile.

Now Zhao Wen is not very excited. After all, it is not difficult for Zhao Wen to make an electric welding machine.

"After the electric welding machine is manufactured, it is necessary to start producing electric welding rods. Without electric welding rods, electric welding machines are useless.

I remember that I told you about the production process of welding rods and the precautions for producing welding rods before. After going down, let’s start manufacturing welding rods and strive to manufacture welding rods. " Zhao Wen said.

According to the different scenarios of use, welding electrodes are divided into a series of welding electrodes such as structural steel electrodes, heat-resistant steel electrodes, and stainless steel electrodes.

There are many welding electrodes that Zhao Wen cannot use at present, so the production method of welding electrodes that Zhao Wen gave to Song Yingxing is the most common production method of low-carbon steel welding rods in later generations, that is, the common J422 welding rods.

This kind of welding rod belongs to the kind of bad street welding rod in later generations. Zhao Wenxue's major is engineering, and the engineering major has metalworking training, including welders.

When Zhao Wen was in metalworking training, he heard the teacher introduce various welding rods and the production methods and processes of various welding rods in detail, so Zhao Wen also knows these.

"I take orders!" Song Yingxing bowed to Zhao Wen, and then hurriedly exited the imperial study with Zhao Wen's order.

……

When the time for the official dispatch of troops arrived, Song Hu and Zhao Daniu led the soldiers and horses to leave Shanxi for Huguang and Shandong.

After walking for almost half a month, the two parties finally arrived in Huguang and Shandong.

Zhao Wen's soldiers and horses were simply not something these decadent guards could stop. After Song Hu and Zhao Daniu entered Huguang and Shandong, they took down five or six of them in just three days without any effort. A city.

In the land of Huguang, there were originally soldiers and horses drawn up by Wu Xiang and Wu Sangui, but they were transferred to the capital by Chongzhen's order, so now there are almost only a few guards left in Huguang.

Where are these guard soldiers from Song Hu's soldiers?Song Hu went down with a few rounds of artillery, and a white flag was erected on the top of the city, surrendering Song Hu.

Li Zicheng and the others who had been roaming around in the Huguang area became active again after Wu Xiang and the others left.

But this scene didn't last long, and they encountered Song Hu's soldiers.

After seeing Song Hu's soldiers and horses, Li Zicheng and the others didn't dare to resist at all, and ran away.

Back then Zhao Wen beat them hard enough, now Zhao Wen has become their nightmare, how dare they resist Song Hu's troops?

As for Zhao Daniu, the same is true. After entering Shandong, he has not encountered a decent resistance.

For a while, Song Hu and Zhao Daniu just felt that this battle was really meaningless.

When Song Hu and Zhao Daniu were in Huguang and Shandong, Chongzhen also received the news.

Chongzhen sat in the imperial study, looking at the battle report on the table, it was as ugly as eating fly droppings.

"Three days, so many cities were lost in three days. What are these defenders doing for food? What are they doing for food? Incompetent, incompetent!"

Chongzhen kept getting angry in the imperial study, yelling and cursing the defenders in Huguang and Shandong.

Gao Qiqian and others knelt in the imperial study room, even breathing became cautious.

After a long time, Chongzhen sat slumped on the chair with a helpless expression on his face.

"The next city is today, and the next city is tomorrow. Shanxi is gone, Shaanxi is gone, Henan is gone, Sichuan is gone, and now Huguang and Shandong are also gone.

After these places are gone, it will be the turn of Anhui and Jiangnan.The world is so big, how much of my country can I give up? "

Chongzhen stared blankly at the roof, the helplessness on his face became more and more solemn.

Gao Qiqian didn't know how to persuade Chongzhen, so he could only kneel quietly on the ground.

"By the way, didn't you say that Qian Qianyi was missing before? I asked you to investigate, how did your investigation go?" Chongzhen suddenly remembered something, and looked at Gao Qiqian who was kneeling at his feet.

Gao Qiqian raised his head and looked at Chongzhen, his face was full of embarrassment.

"Your Majesty, the investigation is almost complete!" Gao Qiqian replied tremblingly.

Before Qian Qianyi left, he took a few days of sick leave for himself.However, after the holiday, no one from the Ministry of Rites saw Qian Qianyi.

The people in the Ministry of Rites thought that Qian Qianyi was seriously ill, so they sent someone to check on Qian Qianyi's residence in the capital.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived, they found that Qian Qianyi's house was empty.

The sudden disappearance of the servant of the Ministry of Rites is a big deal.If it can't be found out in time, it will be even worse for the already frightened capital.

Therefore, Chongzhen asked Gao Qiqian to deal with the matter.

After such a long investigation, Gao Qiqian also found a lot of things.Although the exact whereabouts of Qian Qianyi cannot be determined, Gao Qiqian can guess it roughly.

Chapter 653 Let’s Surrender to the Court

With high potential to become the great eunuch next to Chongzhen, his IQ will definitely not be low.After his long investigation, although he didn't know exactly where Qian Qianyi went, he still made a rough guess.

Gao Qiqian knelt on the ground, tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, Qian Qianyi may have gone to Xuanzhen, he should surrender to Zhao Wen."

After Gao Qiqian finished speaking, he hurriedly lowered his head.

However, the expected yelling and cursing didn't arrive, instead there were sighs after bursts.

"Ah!" Chongzhen sighed a long time, as if he had aged 20 years.

At this time, Chongzhen no longer had the confidence he had at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, and all that was left was helplessness.

"Let's go, let's all go. They are all a group of people who eat what is inside and outside. At the beginning, Emperor Taizu Gao established the ancestral system of preferential treatment of gentry, but in the past few hundred years, what kind of goods has the imperial court raised.

First, Hong Chengchou was captured by the Zhao thief and then surrendered, then the British Duke conspired to surrender, and now it is Qian Qianyi again.Let's go, let's go, let's get out of here. "

Chongzhen patted the armrest of the chair under his seat, then stood up, and staggered towards the harem.

Chongzhen's figure looked like an old man in the setting sun, hunched over and walking slowly.The current Chongzhen is not yet 30 years old, and in later generations, he has only graduated from university for a few years.

Gao Qiqian hurriedly stood up and followed behind Chongzhen.

But in return, Chongzhen cursed angrily, "Get out, get out, get out of here, I want to be quiet, get out of here."

Gao Qiqian was scolded by Chongzhen and stopped at the same spot, not daring to go any further.

……

At the same time, on a wilderness more than 200 miles south of Xiangyang Prefecture, Huguang, a bunch of tents were placed there in disorder.

In the largest tent in the center, several people in iron armor looked sad.

The people here are none other than Li Zicheng, Li Guo, Liu Zongmin and the others.

Li Zicheng sat at the top, holding a wine glass in his hand, with a gloomy expression.

"This Zhao Wen is like a dog. I have come here, and he is still chasing after him. Isn't this trying to kill us all? We have already taken down Xiangyang City before, but we are still here After not enjoying a few days of good life, this Zhao Wen sent an army over.

The real ones are all rebels, so why bother to push each other so hard? " Li Zicheng cursed, then raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.

"Uncle, why don't we join forces with Zhang Xianzhong, who has a lot of soldiers in his hands. If we join forces, maybe we can do something."

Li Zicheng's nephew Li Guo sat at Li Zicheng's subordinate position, and said with a serious face.

Li Zicheng put down the wine glass in his hand, looked at Li Guo, his eyes were full of murderous intent, "Zhang Xianzhong? This man is not so easy to get along with. When he first came to the land of Huguang, he hit me with ideas several times. If he Combining soldiers with one another is probably seeking skin from a tiger, this person is not a good person!"

In fact, not only now, but even in history, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng had a lot of conflicts, they belonged to the kind of incompatible state.

"What's more, even if our two soldiers join together, can we stop Zhao Wen's soldiers? It's not like you don't know how powerful their soldiers are. Now that Zhao Wen has ascended the throne and become emperor, his subordinates are all suffocated. Take a deep breath, and their weapons are powerful, we are even less their opponents.

The best weapons in our hands are the Franc machine guns and red cannons we got from the officers and soldiers, and not many people in the army know how to do it.With our strength, will we be their opponents?Back then we were almost wiped out by Zhao Wen's entire army. Can we resist if we unite together? "
