Napoleon II Reborn

The weapons equipped by the 88th Army Corps were all the ones that were replaced in 1806. In the past two years, it is not that new weapons have not been developed, but they are only used as technical reserves. The weapons currently used by the 88th Army have been far ahead of other countries, but at the same time, it has also stimulated the development of weapons in other countries. It can be said that during this period, the overall level of weapons of European countries has improved a lot compared to the same time in history.

In 1808, Andresi Arsenal re-improved the 1806-style rifle as a prototype, and developed a new rifle, tentatively named the 1808-style rifle, with better range, power and archery accuracy than the 1806-style. Quite a few, but this news is extremely confidential. Except for a few insiders, no one outside knows about it. This is specially prepared by Xiao Jie after the 88th Army has an independent base. In addition, from the very beginning, Xiao Jie asked the arsenal to carry out the development of automatic weapons, and now he has achieved staged results, and it will not be long before the samples are finalized. The achievements of the arsenal on the artillery are also very outstanding. Based on a series of shortcomings such as the 105mm howitzer is too heavy, it is not conducive to transportation. In the case of ensuring its firepower, the arsenal has carried out a series of improvements. Finally, the newly developed 150mm howitzer The weight has been reduced to 60% of the original, effectively solving the problem of transportation. In addition, the 122mm howitzer has also been successfully finalized and can be put into mass production at any time. The 155mm howitzer has also been put on the research agenda, as well as the train gun with a caliber of up to 220mm. Of course, this is also a weapon belonging to the 88th Army itself, and it has not been announced to the outside world.

Another embarrassing thing for Xiao Jie was that he promised Fulton to build a new shipyard in a year or so for the research and development of new warships, but now the time has passed, and the promise has not been fulfilled. Whenever thinking of this matter, Xiao Jie couldn't help but blush. Now it's finally over, the whole of Iberia belongs to me, isn't it just a matter of myself if I want to choose a place to build a shipyard? In fact, Xiao Jie has already chosen the location. Due to the current hostile relationship with the United Kingdom and the strength of the British Royal Navy, it is definitely more dangerous to set up the shipyard on the Atlantic coast, so we can only set the target on the Mediterranean coast. Xiao Jie has already thought about the specific location, that is, Valencia, which is close to the Mediterranean Sea, and also meets a series of requirements for establishing a shipyard. Xiao Jie also considered the safety factor, that is, the British warships seized in Barcelona last time were all repaired and transferred here to serve as the guards of the shipyard. In addition, the heavy artillery regiment directly under the legion was also transferred here, so it would be safe. There is also a guarantee. There was also a small episode during this period, that is, when these captured warships were sent to Marseilles for repairs, they were taken by the people of the Admiralty. At that time, the French naval warships were much behind the British warships in various performances, especially the British first-class battleships, which had always been the target of the big bosses of the Admiralty. Now that Xiao Jie and the others actually seized this kind of warship, they were of course jealous and wanted to keep the ship no matter what. However, there is no reason for Xiao Jie to spit out what Xiao Jie ate. In the end, this incident even got to Napoleon. In the end, there was only a compromise solution, that is, engineers sent by the Ministry of the Navy studied it in detail before releasing it. In fact, even if they are given blueprints, they have no money to build them. A super battleship costs at least several million francs, or even tens of millions. The military salary is not fully paid, how can there be money to build new warships.

Now that the site is in place, it is time to transfer your own industry. Xiao Jie's Andresi Group has developed very well under Kofit's management. It has become a large group covering heavy machinery manufacturing, steel, cement, mining, construction and chemical industries. The group's total assets are 6 More than 100 million francs, ranking among the top three groups in France. Of course, I don't know how much of the use of power is involved. Xiao Jie, who has always taken advantage of the concept of not taking advantage of it - bastard, will definitely take advantage of it in this regard. However, the credit of Kofit cannot be buried. His annual salary has been raised to 2 million francs, and there is also a big red envelope at Christmas every year.

Spain has rich metal deposits, with iron ore reserves of 1.9 billion tons, ranking first in Western Europe; copper-bearing pyrite reserves of 500 million tons, ranking first in the world. Mercury reserves are 700,000 tons, ranking first in the world; there are also abundant lead, zinc and copper mines. These are precious strategic resources and the necessary foundation for the development of Andresi Group. So, it's time to move the group over. It’s just that we have to work **** the migration method. The Andresi Group’s position in the French industrial field is very high, especially in the military industry. If it moves to Iberia at once, it will definitely bring great benefits to the French economy. Very serious impact, this is obviously not acceptable, and Napoleon would never agree. So Xiao Jie plans to start a new factory in Iberia while retaining the French Andrési Group, but the focus will shift from France to Iberia in the future, and the Andrési Group in France will only continue Existing products are produced, and those new products will only appear in the product list of the new Andresi Group.

At the same time, his old father-in-law Otov and his clan's property were also relocated together, and they also adopted the same method as the Andresi Group. Xiao Jie has the final say on the whole of Iberia now, and they are definitely willing to move here. According to the agreement between Xiao Jie and them, they will be given equal citizenship rights. From this, it is not difficult to foresee that Iberia will become a new settlement of Jews all over the world. The Jews are particularly talented in the business field, and most of the future Iberian economy will depend on them. It's just that important industries related to national security will be monopolized by the Andresi Group.

In addition, there is another outstanding problem, that is, the traffic in Iberia is very bad. As the saying goes: if you want to get rich, build roads first. If Iberia's economy is to develop, the transportation problem must be properly resolved. Fortunately, the Andrési Group has been committed to this aspect, entrusting the French Academy of Sciences to research large-scale steam engines and has made great achievements. Not only has it developed a large-scale steam engine that can be used on warships, it has also increased the power of train locomotives Quite a lot.

Taking out the map of the whole Iberia, Xiao Jie made a rough plan for the traffic in Iberia. First of all, important railway lines, including: Madrid-Valencia, Madrid-Lisbon, Madrid-Zaragoza, Madrid-Seville and other main railway lines, and then after a certain development, these large It is connected to the middle and middle cities, and finally the main railway line around the entire peninsula. Of course, it will probably take a long time to complete all of these. Now we can only connect a few big cities. Then there is road construction. Now most of the roads in Iberia are dirt roads, better paved with some gravel. This kind of road becomes muddy when it rains, which seriously restricts economic development. For a long time, Xiao Jie's government had to spend a lot of money on road construction.

"Ah!" Stretching his waist, Xiao Jie summarized what he mentioned just now into a plan, and then sent someone to hand it over to the new government Prime Minister Forbeck. I thought that I would leave these things to them, and I only needed to move my hands.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, the guard informed that the prime minister was asking for an audience. Xiao Jie was a little puzzled: Is there something wrong with his proposal?

"His Royal Highness, good evening!" Forbeck saluted Xiao Jie respectfully.

"Hello, Prime Minister! I wonder what's the matter for your late-night visit?" Xiao Jie cheered up and asked.

Forbeck also knew that he disturbed Xiao Jie's rest, so he smiled apologetically, and then said: "His Royal Highness, I wonder who made this proposal?" Xiao Jie had someone hand him the plan.

broken! Xiao Jie thought, and blushed a little and said: "I wrote this indiscriminately, is there anything wrong?"

"So it was made by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Forbeck exclaimed, "This plan is really good. If it can be implemented in accordance with the above, the entire Iberian economy will develop rapidly."

"Huh." Xiao Jie let out a long breath, it turned out there was no problem, and I was shocked. Let me just say, anyway, I was reborn two hundred years later, so getting this little thing out is not the same as playing. He patted his chest and said: "Master Prime Minister, since it is beneficial to Iberia, you can safely and boldly implement it. The crown prince will definitely give you the greatest support~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After listening to Xiao Jie's guarantee, Forbeck will immediately He showed joy on his face: "Thank you for your support, His Highness, I will definitely do it well, but now I have encountered a problem, that is, we don't have so much money to implement these plans. "

"Eh? How much money is there in the national treasury now, and how much money is needed for the whole plan?" Xiao Jie remembered that he captured a lot when he captured Madrid.

Before Ottof took office, the post of Chancellor of the Exchequer was temporarily replaced by Forbeck, so he was relatively clear about money matters. "At the beginning, there were 400 million francs in the national treasury, but now there are only a little over 200 million francs left. If these plans are to be implemented, the preliminary estimate will require at least 2 billion francs. However, due to the long construction period, we can After careful estimation, we need to invest at least 500 million francs in the first phase."

"Hiss!" When he heard that two billion francs were required, Xiao Jie gasped. Later, when he heard that he could invest in installments, his complexion improved a bit. However, five hundred million francs is not a small amount. not come out. "Damn, I'm short of money, what should I do?" Xiao Jie muttered depressingly.
