First emperor of the human race

Chapter 89 National Reform
As soon as Sima Yi's words fell, the entire court was in an uproar.

"Great Victory in Eastern Border?"

"Could it be that the orc army invaded again and was beaten back by the general?"

Hundreds of officials whispered to each other and kept talking in low voices. They were very excited and their words were full of pride.

"Read the battle report."

Su Chen smiled, waved his hand and said.

"Here."

Sima Yi nodded respectfully, unfolded the blood-stained battle report, and read aloud: "Minister Silong, write this military report in Dongjiang, presenting the emperor! Last night, the million orc empire sneaked into the city. I laid an ambush, attacked inside and outside, and killed the beast army. More than 87 people were captured, and 11 were captured, and the rest fled out of the city in the chaos.”

The general's battle report has always been simple and clear.

There is no excessive rhetoric, nor does it mean to praise and seek credit.

From this battle report, everyone seemed to see the resolute and meticulous general standing in the center of the hall again.

"My God!"

"A million beast army sneaked into the city?"

"The general actually wiped out an army of one million beasts in one battle. This is the greatest military achievement in more than 20 years!"

When Sima Yi's voice fell, everyone was shocked, and all civil and military officials kept exclaiming.

More than 20 years ago, because Silong wanted to take the initiative to attack the Beastman Empire, the Beastman Empire seized the opportunity and aggressively invaded the Great Xia Dynasty.

That year, after the orc army went all the way into the hinterland of the Great Xia, the national fortune of the entire Great Xia suffered a major setback, and the subsequent Si family army could only fight against the orc empire on the defensive.

Every time the orc empire sent millions of troops to continuously attack the city and harass the eastern border, the generals would adopt sound defensive strategies to keep the frontier intact.

Many people said that the battle of the year destroyed the spirit of the general.

The general didn't dare to fight anymore, he almost lost his life because of that defeat, but now, Dongjiang proved it with a feat that shocked everyone!
The general has never changed, he is still the invincible military god, but he is better at forbearance than 20 years ago, and he understands the temper of the orc army better.

"it is good!"

Su Chen smiled: "In the first battle, the army of millions of orcs was defeated, and the military exploits are outstanding. Si Long is indeed the pillar of the Great Xia."

"Did he say, what reward do you want?"

"Returning to the emperor, the general only said that he begged the imperial capital to support the eastern border and rebuild the eastern border fortress; because of the battle seven days ago, the entire eastern border fortress city became dilapidated, and it would be difficult to defend against the next attack of the orc empire."

"Ah."

Su Chen nodded: "Ai Qing thinks, what should I do?"

Sima Yi was the one who had the most secret contact with Dongjiang. Su Chen wanted to hear Sima Yi's opinion, because Su Chen was very sure that things in Dongjiang were not that simple.

How could the army of millions of orcs enter the interior of the fortress city casually?There must be secrets in it!
And regarding Si Yu's matter, Si Long did not give a clear answer.

Combining all kinds of things together, Su Chen can guess that many things about the inside story of the Eastern Xinjiang Great Victory cannot be put on the bright side.

Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "I believe that the most important thing now is to fully support the eastern border, repair the city, and prevent the next counterattack of the orc empire."

The army of millions of orcs is destroyed, and the orc empire must be furious.

For the Beastman Empire whose national power is far greater than that of the Great Xia Dynasty, there are many millions of troops, but they will not be crippled one time at a time. The Beastman Empire definitely has the ability to retaliate against Great Xia.

Moreover, everyone can guess that the next revenge of the Orc Empire will definitely be even more deadly!

For the current Great Xia country, Su Chen and Sima Yi are more inclined to focus on military training and rectifying other domestic affairs. After everything in the country is stable, they will focus on the issue of Eastern Border and whether to counterattack the Orc Empire.

Originally, Su Chen was thinking that if Si Long was not strong enough, he would definitely send one of Bai Qi and Zhao Yun to guard the eastern border. No matter what, it was best not to start a full-scale war with the orc empire at this time.

Once the Great Xia Dynasty and the Orc Empire go to war, it will definitely drag the entire Great Xia Dynasty into the quagmire of war, seriously slowing down the development of national strength.

In the Eight Desolation Continent, where thousands of races are fighting each other, the fight between the Great Xia Dynasty and the Beastman Empire will only benefit other race empires.

In the face of no absolute certainty, Su Chen will not take the initiative to start the war.

As an emperor, it is not enough to simply shout two voices: "The king dies in Sheji".

Su Chen needs to consider it from different angles, and strive to maximize the interests of the Great Xia Dynasty.

On the whole, the Great Xia Dynasty, which has just experienced the Eight Kings Rebellion, is now better off seeking stable development.

Only when a series of things such as sufficient resources, population, and military strength; the improvement of the average strength of soldiers and the improvement of the education level of the people are fully implemented, can they occupy a great advantage in future wars.

"good."

After pondering for a moment, Su Chen nodded and said: "Junji Pavilion can draw up an order to mobilize all the supplies of the ten major counties to fully support Eastern Xinjiang! At the same time, while recruiting new troops, a group of reserve soldiers will also be recruited for the Si family army .”

You can't just let the Si family army fight in the eastern border without supplementing the troops. If the Si family army is all dead, it will be a big loss for the Great Xia Dynasty.

"In addition, announce this battle report to the world, so that the people of Great Xia will know that Dongjiang has no worries."

Only a stable situation can allow the country to grow steadily and orderly.

At present, the only elite troops in China that can rival the Si Family Army are the Great Xia Tie Army and the Great Xia Zhenwei Cavalry, but these two legions are not as numerous as the Si Family Army.

If they really want to go to war with the Beastman Empire, the Great Xia Dynasty will definitely suffer in terms of military strength!

However, it is useless to forcibly expand and increase the number of troops, because most of the soldiers of the Orc Empire are not weak. If the Great Xia Dynasty wants to produce an army that is equally elite or even stronger, it must involve the improvement of the strength of the soldiers and the civil and military skills of the people. Education issues.

Only when the education of martial arts training and military policy of governing the country is improved, can there be a steady stream of talents and more powerful soldiers can be recruited.

The military hard power of a country is inseparable from the economy, agriculture, manufacturing, education, ideology and so on.

"Here."

Sima Yi nodded. He had the same idea as the emperor, let Silong guard the frontier and develop the country desperately.

Just wait until the time is right, and reinvigorate the weapons!
"My dear friends, is there anything else you want to play?"

Su Chen raised his head and looked at the ministers of the Military Machine Pavilion.

Chen Qun realized something in his heart, and he took the initiative to stand up, bowed his hands and saluted: "Emperor, I have something to play."

Civil and military officials looked over one after another. They were still immersed in the shock and surprise brought by General Si Long, but the ministers of the Military Machine Pavilion had already considered the next step.

The smarter people are, the more they can smell the imminent danger from the seemingly safe atmosphere, so as to plan ahead.

"I love you, but it's okay to say."

"A few days ago, the Military Aircraft Pavilion made new adjustments to the official system of the ten major counties and major cities of the Great Xia Dynasty, as well as some superficial strategies for farming taxes, merchant taxes, military pay increases, soldier expansion conditions, and new army formation. , I also hope that the emperor accepts advice."

Chen Qun opened his mouth to say a series of words, then took out a thick memorial from his bosom, and handed it respectfully to the palace servants beside him, who trotted all the way up the white marble stairs, and presented them in front of Su Chen.

All the officials were dumbfounded. It seems that the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion have made up their minds to carry out drastic reforms across the country.

Whether it is the transfer of officials, the economy, or people's livelihood issues, vigorous improvements have been made in all aspects, in an effort to stimulate the Great Xia Dynasty to enter a period of rapid development.

It has to be said that the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion grasped the timing very precisely. The Rebellion of the Eight Kings has just ended. At present, the power of the aristocratic families in the Great Xia Dynasty is at its lowest ebb, and it is impossible to resist a series of policy arrangements from the imperial capital.

After all the policies are implemented, the ten major counties will be filled with the emperor's people, and it will be too late for the aristocratic families to resist.

"good."

Su Chen briefly glanced at the memorial, nodded and said: "Just follow the wishes of the Military Aircraft Pavilion, and draw up the order immediately after the court is over."

Su Chen has seen this memorial a long time ago, and now it is just a formality at the court meeting.

"Other lovers, do you have any objections?"

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

All civil and military officials came out one after another to agree.

None of the officials who can stand in the Hall of Supreme Harmony is a political idiot.

They can see that the reshuffle of officials from all over the country, the improvement of the treatment of the army, and the improvement of the status of businessmen are all things Su Chen must do.

Whoever dares to stop is against the emperor!
Now the imperial power is strong, the military power is in hand, and the centralization of power is unprecedentedly strong.

There may have been resistance to imperial power in the past, but this will definitely not happen now.

"good."

Su Chen nodded in satisfaction, what he wants is obedient courtiers, you all work hard, don't play tricks.

Great Xia is strong, everyone benefits.

"Report to the emperor, I have something to do."

Guan Yiwu stood up.

"Say."

Su Chen's expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice.

Seeing the emperor's expression, all the officials were shocked and looked at Guan Yiwu.

They knew that the highlight of today's court meeting was coming.

　The necessary farming development is indispensable.

　　Third more.

　　Ask for a recommendation ticket!Seek strong support!
