    The night is already deep.  The hustle and bustle of the day seemed to disappear completely. The cicadas and insects outside the window kept chirping, indicating that another midsummer was coming.  Yang Qiu was leaning on the bed. The former heroic leader Rui was nestling in her arms in her small clothes. The tight and close-fitting fabric wrapped her already plump breasts even more proudly. Two plump breasts could even be clearly seen.  The bulge kept rubbing with the movement.  Yang Qiu didn't pay much attention, and carefully looked at the photos taken from the data machine. These photos will be sent to the confidential department to be turned into design drawings in the near future.

    In fact, now he rarely uses the military data drawings in the data machine. The cultivation of his own technical and design talents is the key. The data machine is nothing more than a finishing booster.  What he most wants to see is something independently developed like the Albatross transport aircraft.  The reason for collecting information again today was because of the navy, which really troubled him.  The first is that he does not understand the navy, and the second is that the technology of the Republic of China's navy is too far behind the world.  Purely looking at the scale of shipbuilding, the Republic of China is no longer inferior to Japan. The Jiangnan and Mawei plants were designed to have the capacity to build 300,000 tons at the same time.  After the shipbuilding equipment provided by Britain and France was divided between Guangzhou and Qingdao, these two factories were built in accordance with this requirement.  There are also three smaller shipyards in Dalian, Tianjin and Qinzhou. Together with private factories such as Qiuxin and Longsheng, the domestic shipbuilding industry has ushered in the best period.  But the problem is that shipbuilding technology cannot be accumulated by piling up a large number of shipyards.  In particular, warship design requires a long process of technology accumulation, and so far, the Republic of China has only built two types of warships, the Changfeng-class destroyer and the Anhai-class large cruiser.  The former can be said to be a testing ground. From the current point of view, it still has not got rid of the shadow of old warships.  And because he did not understand the extent of international naval technology at the time, it was too heavy above the waterline and the speed did not reach the standard of a destroyer. Therefore, the Navy had to dismantle a twin-mounted turret and canceled it after building 8 ships.  Construction work on the last 8 ships.

    As for the Anhai-class, it was built at its own request and was designed and provided with drawings and technical support by the United States. To say that it was built is actually to put money on the face, because most of the accessories for the last two Anhai-class ships were provided by the United States.  Only the hull and a few secondary battery accessories are produced domestically.  According to Jiangnan Factory¡¯s report, the nationalization rate is not even 40%.  Therefore, in terms of manufacturing scale, the Republic of China has equaled Japan or even partially surpassed it, but there is still a gap in terms of manufacturing technology. Therefore, even if there are sufficient funds, the Republic of China cannot immediately and truly complete all the work of a large warship from design to completion.

    On the contrary, the intelligence sent by Fang Rui made the general staff and the navy very uneasy.  After Japan seized the northern Sakhalin Island and the coast of the Sea of ??Okhotsk, domestic voices calling for "return to the mainland" gradually increased.  In particular, the Japanese Navy has decided to start construction of two Nagato-class battleships and several light cruisers including the Tianlong class next month. In addition, the last accident caused concerns among Japanese and Soviet soldiers, so the Navy and the General Staff also hope to build them.  More warships to deal with threats at sea.  In his opinion, he is actually not too worried about Japan, and he does not want to become an imaginary enemy of some countries because of too rapid military expansion. At least he should not compete for maritime hegemony when the national strength is insufficient. Therefore, the Republic of China must control the total navy and recruit elite troops.  The road of transformation, but could not withstand the clamor of the General Staff and Sa Zhenbing.  Moreover, maritime border maintenance does require a batch of new warships.

    Under the pressure of reality and the idea of ??building an army with elite troops, pertinence is particularly important. Moreover, although he does not understand the navy, he has heard a saying.  The result of forcibly pursuing Gao Daquan is that everything is insufficient, so instead of forcibly launching battleships when the technology is insufficient, it is better to build a few targeted ships.  The aircraft carrier is naturally the top priority. Since we already have two 15,000-ton training aircraft carriers, imitating the Yorktown class should be a good choice, of course, even if it looks similar.  The performance of the machine must also be weakened a lot. After all, the most critical power, aircraft, etc. have not yet met the requirements.

    In addition to the drawings of two new aircraft carriers imitating the Yorktown class, there are also drawings of the Omaha class light cruiser and the Italian Zara class heavy cruiser.  In addition to technology, the Omaha-class light cruiser was brought out for practical and urgent reasons. After studying the drawings of the Dutch De-Troy-class and British Southampton-class light cruisers that he had previously given to the design department, it was determined that they would be based on the current design of the Republic of China.  The technical capabilities could not achieve it, so he thought of this light cruiser built after World War I.  From a technical point of view, the Omaha class is undoubtedly a continuation of World War I and is technically achievable.  Of course, Yang Qiu didn't like its messy gun arrangement, so he mainly referred to its structural design.  Moreover, light cruisers are what the Republic of China Navy most urgently needs, so the construction plan must be started as soon as possible.  As for the Zara-class treaty heavy cruiser.  It is completely in line with the Washington Naval Treaty that will start in a few years. Compared with the more complex battleships and battlecruisers, the technical difficulty of the treaty heavy cruiser is much lower. The technical restrictions of this level are not strict in various countries, and accessories can be purchased smoothly.  Even if the power electronics are insufficient, we can still build a ship that is 70% to 80% similar to God, so take it out now and study it first, and wait for the conditions to mature.It can be built immediately without wasting time.

    Seeing that Yang Qiu was just staring at the photo and meditating, Rui Yao put a hand across his face, pressed almost half of her body on his chest, and said quietly: "I see that you have been restless and insomnia these days. How are you today?"  It¡¯s easy to accomplish big things, so just rest early.¡±

    "Big deal? It hasn't been done yet." Yang Qiu smiled and kissed her cheek, sighing: "Chengcheng's bill is just the first step. It is to give us the legal basis for reform. With the basis, Dong Yongwei  Only then can they continue to purge Jiangsu and Anhui." Ruiyao didn't understand this. She only knew that Yang Qiu had been too hard during this period. He stayed up late every day writing the reform draft and lost a lot of weight.  Seeing that today's storm has passed and I have started to study the navy again, I feel unspeakably distressed.  But she also knew that Yang Qiu didn't like to talk about business at home, so Xiaoxiao deliberately changed the subject and asked: "By the way, you clearly drafted this reform law, why do you name it after Cheng Cheng?"

    Yang Qiu's hand shook slightly, he put down the photo and said seriously: "This was drawn up by Cheng Cheng, I just modified it! He is a hero and a martyr who has contributed to the country. Only when the bill is named after him does it truly belong  It is well deserved, and doing so can also inspire other young people to take action! Nothing can prove your contribution to the country and the people better than having your name engraved on a bill." Ruiyao blinked, somewhat  She understood what he meant, but it still felt a little unworthy in her opinion. If this law was named after Yang Qiu, wouldn't the prestige and status be higher?

    After seeing through her little thoughts, Yang Qiu scraped his nose and said fondly: "Stop hitting your little Jiujiu. This is not a matter of prestige and reputation, but I owe him! What's more,  My current status and prestige no longer need these things to improve. What I want to do is to leave something to our country so that our children and future generations can live a good life." Speaking of the child, Ruiyao's eyes suddenly became hazy.  , after Miao Luo raised a son for Yang Qiu, she always felt a little knotty in her heart, so she grabbed Yang Qiu's hand and stuffed it into her little clothes.

    Yang Qiu was thinking about what to do next when he suddenly found that his hand was pressed against a ball of fat. When he turned to look at Ruiyao, she had already unbuttoned her top, completely exposing her perfect upper body to the light.  She grabbed her hands and put them against the soft flesh of her chest, and said in a numb voice: "Then let's have a child first, okay?" Yang Qiu laughed dumbly. She didn't expect that this could also be an excuse for her to have a child, but even  Having experienced the influence of later generations, he had to admit that this woman did have the capital to prevent the king from going to court early in the future.

    The night passed quickly, and Yang Qiu got up from his lustrous body and went back to his new work again.

    The series of reform issues that extended from the land reform in early 1918 did not end with the passage of the Chengcheng Bill. On the contrary, there was still a lot of resistance and opponents in the local area, so there was still a long way to go before the bill was truly implemented.  Walk.  But as he said, the passage of the bill will serve as a backstop, and many things can be solved only with legal basis.  To set an example for the whole country.  Yang Qiu first selected seven provinces or regions of Sichuan, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Jiangsu, Anhui and Northeast China as reform models to implement the standard version of the Republic of China farming contract leasing contract.

    These places were carefully selected, and most of them were the base areas of Yang Qiu and the National Society, so they were implemented very quickly.  Only Anhui and Jiangsu have always been a tough nut to crack, but the sudden large-scale purge by the Ministry of Justice made this stubborn resistance a joke.  A large number of officials and landowners were found guilty of crimes and dismissed from their posts, and hundreds of them were sentenced to death.  The farmers' association also took active action to organize everyone to boycott those landowners who were usually rich and unkind and deliberately caused their fields to be abandoned.  As a result, those landowners had to lower their heads and sign new contracts because they were worried that they would be taken away by the state if they were left idle for a year.  During the three-month purge operation in Jiangsu and Anhui.  A total of hundreds of millions of illegal gains were confiscated and confiscated, and 10 million acres of farmland of various types were combined together with 10 million acres of wasteland considered to be of development value in the hands of the newly formed Land and Resources Administration. A large number of water pumps were also allocated to build  Aqueducts, etc. are specially used for the construction of public land.  Facts have proved that public leased land has indeed played a role in balancing land conflicts, only on the first day of registration application.  More than 100,000 farmers have applied for public lease of land.  According to statistics from the Reform and Development Commission, 20 million acres of land can fully meet the land needs of approximately 2 million people.

    2 million is not much for the two provinces with a combined population of more than 50 million, but immigration has accelerated the transfer of local labor.  News came back one after another from the immigrants who arrived first.  More and more people are going to the two places. In August alone after the summer grain harvest, 500,000 people went to the Northeast to settle down.  Although there are fewer in the northwest, more than 100,000 people went to Gansu, Xinjiang and other places.  In order to solve the problem of housing, farm tools, etc. after the immigrants arrived, Yang Qiu not only handed over the confiscated funds from the two provinces to the immigration agencies of the two places, but also ordered the army to collect them from Russia.Nearly 100,000 war horses and cattle were successively seized and given to immigrants from both places on loan for land reclamation. A large number of horses, cattle and sheep were also purchased from Mongolia and other places and booked for the next three years, which in turn promoted animal husbandry.  An explosion of industry.  Stimulated by a good immigration environment, the population of the two provinces began to emigrate on a large scale. This made landowners, big and small, unable to sit still. They all agreed to sign new contracts to retain farmers, and began to sell large amounts of excess land. Xu Xiujun and Zhang Wenjing also took advantage of this.  The market has once again returned land to expand the scale of public leased land.

    Xu Shaojie resigned, and Dong Yongwei temporarily took over as governor. The hard-line tactics of sweeping away holes made Jiangsu and Anhui officials clean up. A large number of young people began to enter the officialdom of the two provinces. Compared with their aging predecessors, their attitude towards reform was more firm.  , the determination to implement the Cheng Cheng Act is also greater.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ª A war in Europe has finally come to an end.  Although the German army did not need to continue fighting on two fronts to resolve the Eastern Front, both its national strength and resources finally reached their limits four years later. On the contrary, the strength advantage of the Entente became more and more obvious as the United States went all out.  In July, the Somme Offensive, which was hailed as a precursor to the end of the Western Front, was launched in full swing. At the same time, the Chinese Expeditionary Force commanded by Yue Peng also embarked on the war again, and stole the work of the US military in the parallel world, assembling more than 300 tanks,  1,000 aircraft (mainly British and French), more than 600 heavy artillery, and 20 infantry divisions of the Expeditionary Force and 10 infantry divisions of the French First Army were dispatched to forcibly attack Saint-Mihiel, known as the Gate of Lorraine. After 2 days of strong attack  The later expeditionary force took the lead in breaking through the defense line before the French army.

    At the first moment of breaking through the defense line, Yue Peng repeated his old tricks and decisively committed two infantry divisions. He used the darkness of night to abandon all heavy equipment and forcibly penetrated along the Moselle River. This bold surprise attack was beyond the expectations of the German army. Although the two  The light division ultimately paid the price of nearly 4,000 casualties, but it captured the strategic town of Metz before the Germans could react.

    The Battle of Saint-Mihiel was the biggest victory on the Western Front in August. Although the gunfire lasted only two weeks, it defeated 6 German divisions in one fell swoop, captured 41,000 prisoners, captured more than 1,500 cannons of various types, and 200  aircraft, 120 tanks.  Not only did it regain the Paris-Nancy railway, it also took control of the most important Metz iron ore in Lorraine, which once again aggravated Germany's resource shortage problem.  At the same time, the US military also joined forces with the French army to launch the Battle of Mars-Argonne.  However, due to the tight defenses of the German army in the Argonne area, the US military did not achieve victory until the end of September, and barely won it at the cost of more than 40,000 men.

    With the end of these two battles, the German army completely lost Lorraine and other lands acquired during the Franco-Prussian War, and iron ore production also dropped by 30%.  After four years of fierce fighting, involving tens of millions of soldiers and a population of over a billion, the war has finally come to an end.

    While Russia, Germany, and Austria-Hungary have fallen one after another, China has quietly become a member of the new world.  After opening the door to a great country, Yang Qiu was full of confidence and re-energized to join this revolution again To be continued)!  ~!
