Li Wei looked at a series of upgrade panels, and almost spent all the glory points converted from building points after the system upgrade this time.

However, these upgraded system buildings are of vital significance to Levi now.

Not to mention the function of the barracks, the training limit of 10 people is equivalent to completely solving the problem of surplus glory but insufficient time for Li Wei.

Training an army of 10, but it needs to consume a full [-] glory points at one time!
Moreover, Li Wei felt that with [-] soldiers of the system, it might be difficult to fight out, but it should be more than enough to defend the French mainland.

After all, a [-] army seems to be a lot, but France is so big, and the long borders and big cities have to deploy garrison troops. If it is divided like this, there will not be much left...

When Robespierre was in power, the National Salvation Revolutionary Army still left nearly [-] troops behind.

This is still based on the premise that the internal rule of the revolutionary regime was very stable during Robespierre's administration.

If it were Li Wei, the pressure to defend the homeland would only be greater.

Not to mention Paris, many cities that seem to belong to are dissatisfied with Li Wei's becoming the first consul. This is due to Li Wei's reputation in France being too "guangweizheng"...

Regardless of how well the Governor government licked it, the French people's thinking about Li Wei has long been finalized, and they all believe that Li Wei is the chief culprit that ruined the French Revolution, even though Li Wei left behind the title of the Republic.

In addition, many policies of the Li Wei regime are also unpopular, such as the most important high taxation!
As for continuing to retain noble titles and some noble fiefdoms, it is not a prominent issue...

Therefore, in order to ensure his dominance and even prepare for the next French purge, Li Wei must garrison troops in every big city, even those small and medium-sized cities with a strong revolutionary atmosphere.

Otherwise, once the freedom of the French people is detonated, I am afraid that another great revolution will sweep the country...

This is actually a hidden danger of Li Wei taking shortcuts and compromising with the supervising government of the revolutionary regime.

Of course, compared to what Li Wei has obtained now, this hidden danger is nothing at all. After the first phase of the training of the [-] troops is completed, what else should Li Wei be afraid of?

Even if the revolutionary party inside France and the anti-French alliance outside attack from inside and outside, Li Wei can keep Paris from falling!
And if Paris does not fall, Li Wei is equivalent to being invincible. After the upgrade of the total war system, Li Wei's strategic key points have been reduced from the surface to the point, and he can completely shrink his fist and fight out!
This is Li Wei's confidence!

Elevating the local court to the court of appeal twice in a row is the second step in Li Wei's plan to completely control the entire territory of France.

There are a hundred thousand loyal government officials who have been enlightened by the administration, and Li Wei feels that it is enough to put the whole of France under his control.

On internal issues, these [-] administrative officials are more useful than [-] troops.

Upgrading the artillery foundry in Paris to a large arsenal was Li Wei's aim to establish a stable military logistics production base.

Paris is the most industrially developed region in France now. Li Wei has slightly integrated it, and no matter how weakly brainwashed [-] good workers regard the factory as their own home, it can definitely satisfy the long-term consumption of the state of war!
The college was upgraded to a classical university because Li Wei wanted to control the middle and high-level intellectuals in France, make them willingly work for Li Wei, and keep up with the most advanced science and technology in Europe.

The science and technology here is not only related to the military, but also includes other aspects such as people's livelihood.

Only when the country is rich can Li Wei have enough supplies and wealth to go to war!
What's more, Li Wei, who comes from the 21st century, knows very well how much the development of social productivity benefits the superiors.

In the development of scientific and technological productivity, if the quality of life of the ordinary people can be doubled, the quality of life of the superiors will be improved by at least 10 times!
In the society of the 21st century, money in the eyes of the superiors has even turned into a financial number!
Even earning [-] million has become a small goal...

Li Wei still believes that the top rich people of that era are not interested in money. At their level, money is just a symbol, so naturally they will not be interested...

Even if those top rich people do nothing, lie there and enjoy life, playing unspeakable games with a group of beauties, the money in his account is also increasing, and some people are desperately helping him to make money.

Therefore, Li Wei is very clear about the truth that the country is rich, which means that he himself is rich!

After upgrading the system buildings he needed, Li Wei glanced at the balance of the glory points, and put the remaining glory points into recruiting!
Li Wei spent 10 glory points to add 10 cavalry guards to the training sequence, and spent [-] glory points to add [-] sharpshooters to the training sequence, and all other glory points were invested in the infantry guards training sequence middle.

After the Total War system was upgraded, an additional function was added.

When training the army in the barracks, you can conduct multi-arms training at the same time, as long as there are corresponding training facilities such as shooting ranges and horse farms in the barracks that are added with system functions in reality.

The reason why Li Wei only trained [-] cavalry guards was mainly due to the lack of horses. Li Wei has always insisted on taking the route of elite soldiers. Naturally, the horses of the cavalry guards should choose the best configuration of one man and three horses.

In this way, even if the horses of the guard cavalry lose too much on the battlefield, there are enough spare horses to use, and it can also ensure the ability of the guard cavalry to attack long distances.

The guard cavalry with one man and three horses can even be used as light cavalry or hussars.

It can be regarded as making up for the only shortcoming of the guard cavalry.

In this way, Li Wei needs a full [-] military horses. Even if [-] of them do not need high-quality charge horses, it is still a huge burden for France now.

France has a large area of ​​western European plains and grasslands, and there are still many horse farms. It is not a country short of horses. Even so, for France, which has just ended its civil war, it is a bit painful to take out [-] qualified military horses all at once. moving bones...

After Li Wei spent all his glory points, he just set up the training sequence. When the training starts, specific personnel need to enter the designated barracks.

The restrictions on the upgraded barracks have become much looser, and Li Wei can devote waves to training in the training camp, even if the upper limit of 10 people is not met, he can still open it.

For example, on the first day Li Wei puts 1000 people into the barracks for training, the training brainwashing function of the barracks will have an effect on these 1000 people, and the countdown will start.

The next day, Li Wei put another 1000 people into the barracks for training, and these 1000 people will generate a new countdown.

The [-] soldiers who went to the barracks training on the first day will end the training one day earlier than the [-] soldiers who went to the barracks training the next day and join the combat sequence.

Therefore, Li Wei does not need to gather 10 people and put them into the barracks for training. He can completely follow the normal training mode in reality, put into the barracks for training in waves, and then leave the barracks in waves. The training effect is not good. There will be no discount, and the training time will not increase.

Although Li Wei has not started training yet, on the system panel, all the soldiers who joined the training sequence have been counted into Li Wei's army.

After the consumption, Li Wei opened the updated personal panel.

【Name: Levi Charles

Glory value: 0
Occupied the capital of a major European country: Paris, the capital of France (barracks, tax office, court of appeal, large arsenal, classical university, bank building, shipyard)
Training troop templates have been opened: Guards Infantry, Sharpshooters, Guards Cavalry

System-trained troops: Guards Infantry (192800+), Sharpshooters (18000+), Guards Cavalry (10000)

System-trained water warships: None

Evaluation: You are already the lord of a country, but the revolutionary ideology in the country has not been eradicated, and it is in the stage of detonation anytime and anywhere. External threats have invaded the mainland. Before you solve these troubles, your position as the lord of the country is in jeopardy! 】

"Hehe, the evaluation of the Total War system is always so rigorous.

According to the display on the personal panel, if I complete all the training sequences, the army under my command will reach more than 20 people, which is enough for me to solve all the current difficulties! "

Li Wei turned off the system excitedly, and then returned to his office to convene a meeting of his private cabinet!
The current Paris regime has two sets of government teams, one is the French Republic Assembly, and the other is Li Wei's original cabinet government.

After the system upgrade, Li Wei directly added the location of the Assembly of the French Republic as the Court of Appeal, and planned to give administrative enlightenment to all members when the first Assembly of the French Republic was held!
However, the administrative efficiency of the council has always been very low. Now that Li Wei has just entered the city, there are still many things to be busy.

After Li Wei saw all the cabinet ministers coming in front of him, he immediately looked at the Minister of War and said in an orderly tone: "I need you to transfer the strength of the standing corps and garrison corps under our control in the shortest possible time. The itinerary and time in Paris are all sorted out and handed over to me.

Then give me a count of the total number of soldiers from the original revolutionary government that we can recruit in France.

Oh, by the way, including the remaining city guards and police in Paris, these people have been severely infiltrated by the Paris Commune, I need to conduct a thorough adaptation and retraining!
In addition, I ask you to recruit veterans in Paris. As long as they are young men who have participated in all regular armies, paramilitary organizations, and even militias, such as the National Salvation Revolutionary Army, they can be recruited.

With double the pay of the former Revolutionary Army for National Salvation, you should not worry about not being able to attract people. "

"My lord, please rest assured that the economy of the French Republic is now weak, and the people have not yet recovered from the food crisis after the war. The double salary of the original National Salvation Revolutionary Army will definitely be able to attract most of the veterans in Paris.

The rest who are unwilling to enter our recruitment site are probably extremists who have been brainwashed by the revolution. "

"Well, there's no need for the extremists. Those people are hiding in XZ like local rats. It's too hard to find them. When we finish the first period of military training, I have plenty of ways to let these extremists jump out by themselves.

You have remembered that the focus of our work now is to prepare the army for war, declaring to the outside world that it is to fight against the anti-French alliance.

I have already greeted the gang of the Congress of the Republic, and they will not stop them.

In other words, what we are doing now is exactly what they want to see.

Don't those people from the former Governor's Government just want me to help them save France from the Anti-French Alliance?
That being the case, let's do it well for them to see!

Within a month, I will see the initial results of the large-scale military expansion, and within two months, I will review the [-] trained army in Paris! "

"Master Li Wei! Long live!"

All the cabinet ministers raised their hands in salute, and at the same time shouted wildly with their eyes.

With Li Wei's order, the government team he brought over, with the cooperation of the Black Dragon Legion, began to recruit troops on a large scale in Paris and even the whole of France to prepare for war!

The Anti-French Alliance is a very good target. The approach of the two armies of the Anti-French Alliance has forced the revolutionaries in France to temporarily give up trouble with the Li Wei government. In order to defend France, many people even responded to the Li Wei government. The large-scale military expansion plan has continuously entered the recruitment point and entered the barracks in Paris.

The Paris barracks that Li Wei endowed the system with functions is not a single barracks, but a large barracks with many sub-bases.

All over the city of Paris, there is also part of the barracks in the city of Paris.

When a large number of the National Salvation Revolutionary Army, which had just been disbanded by the Directory, and other armed forces during Robespierre's administration were worrying about how to solve their livelihood problems in the future, the Li Wei government's large-scale military expansion plan fell from the sky, making them ecstatic!

Even Li Wei himself did not expect that his army expansion plan could easily recruit so many recruits!

Originally, Li Wei wanted to recruit people from the labor dispatch department when the source of recruits was insufficient. At this point, it seems that even the soldiers of the garrison army do not need to be reorganized much...

Of course, the good form of recruiting troops is not enough to change the predicament France is facing today. Li Wei still has a lot to do!
