Three Kingdoms: Everything Can Be Gamified

Chapter 436 Generals from all directions
"Since the imperial court established its capital in Chang'an, the four generals of the front, rear, left and right have been cancelled, and replaced by the generals of four expeditions, four towns, four peaces and four ans. From now on, it will be the regular establishment of the imperial court." The visitor announced.

In the past, there were not many general positions in the Han Dynasty. Above the front, rear, left, and right, there were basically chariot generals and hussar generals.

Downstairs are the generals, generals, generals, captains, commanders of other departments and military commanders.

Now there are sixteen more general positions in one breath. To be honest, many ministers still feel that it is a bit redundant.

"Let me explain it here!" Liu Bei signaled before the visitor could continue, "The world we are in is very big. Even a big man can only occupy a small corner. The huge world means a large number of territories and more. Many enemies."

After speaking and clapping his hands, someone naturally took out the globe, which Zhang He made himself.

This huge globe was carried to the hall by more than a dozen eunuchs for everyone to watch. The big man's part was painted red.

From what we can see with the naked eye, the big man that everyone talks about as being vast is actually only a little bit bigger, which is very shocking.

"Your Majesty, who provided this map?" Tian Feng asked.

Many people have this idea, but not as directly as Tian Feng.

"I provided it!" Zhang He took the initiative.

"That's okay..." Tian Feng looked at Zhang He and seemed to understand why he wanted to expedition to the Western Regions.

Now, not to mention Tian Feng, even the other ministers felt that there should be no problem with this map. After all, it was provided by the Immortal Chief.

After leaving the Western Region, there is still such a vast world, so there is a lot to be done in the expedition to the Western Region.

Many people thought that Zhang He said that before just to delay time, but now it seems that he is serious.

Many people are even planning whether the imperial court should eat such a big cake.

"Gentlemen!" Seeing that no one questioned the map, Liu Bei continued, "The world is so big, and our journey is not over. Now you understand, why do I want to set up four generals?"

"I understand!" Everyone responded one after another.

If it is only within the scope of the Han Dynasty, four generals on the front, back, left, and right are enough, but if the entire world is the target, it is obviously not enough.

"Then I would like to emphasize again, four expeditions, four towns, four peace and four security, the specific responsibilities of these sixteen generals." Liu Bei coughed lightly, and then explained in detail.

General Si'an, guarding the front lines in the southeast, northwest, and his main responsibility is to maintain stability.

General Siping guards the second line and has an overview of the first and second lines of defense. To put it simply, the defense area is larger.

The four town generals guard the first to third line defense areas, and the defense areas are further improved.

The General of the Four Expeditions is usually on standby in Chang'an to handle the military affairs of the four defense zones. At the same time, when the war expands, he goes to the front line to command.

To put it simply, with Chang'an as the center, it is divided into four theaters: southeast, northwest and northwest.

In peacetime, there are eight generals who are mainly responsible for guarding and maintaining stability on the front line.

The four generals of the town were stationed around Chang'an as a guard.

The direct troops of General Sizheng were stationed in Chang'an, which was equivalent to the five schools of the Northern Army in the past.

With the establishment of Four Expeditions, Four Towns, Four Pings and Four Ans, the five schools of the Northern Army can basically be cancelled.

It would be better to say that since the establishment of the imperial court, the so-called five schools of the Northern Army have not been established.

The number of direct subordinates of generals at all levels is actually the same.

However, the scope of control is different. The one at the higher level commands the generals at the lower level.

For example, if there is an all-out southern expedition, General Zhengnan will take charge, and the three generals Zhennan, Pingnan and Annan will obey the orders of General Zhengnan.

In peacetime, the generals of the Four Expeditions mainly focus on government affairs and have an overview of military affairs in all directions.

Only during the war, when the country enters the stage of comprehensive conquest, will the troops be united and go to war, and all ministries will be unified to deal with the outside world.

It was very straightforward, and even the ministers could understand it. The core was actually one: the war is far from over!
Many people looked at the globe and knew in their hearts that the big man would not stop until he completely conquered this world.

This is a good thing, because it means that the pie will continue to grow and the speed of resource allocation can also slow down.

The only worry is whether these places are suitable for survival as most of them are wild lands.

Otherwise, there will be no one to live in it, and there will be no practical significance in destroying it.Liu Bei also knew this, so Zhang He proposed that a group of people should be moved there regularly to live there, and at the same time, the local infrastructure should be improved.

As long as the city is built, the infrastructure is improved, local security is ensured, and enough land is provided, the people will naturally be willing to settle there.

Of course, he still needs to discuss these supporting policies with the ministers later, so he will not take up time for today.

Take Jiangnan as an example. There is still so much land that has not been developed, not to mention the black land in the northeast.

The existing land has not yet been developed, and there is no point in considering land outside the territory.

In the short term, we have to rest and recuperate for about five years no matter what, so that people's livelihood and the economy can recover before we can have money for foreign wars.

Liu Bei knew very well that fighting a war is not fought with passion or shouting slogans. What is fought is the population and logistics!

"Then, now we announce the appointment of the four generals of Zhen, Siping, and Si'an!" Liu Bei signaled, and the audience continued to chant.

The Generals of the Four Expeditions have not been appointed. Speaking of which, none of the current military merits of the generals are enough to be promoted to the generals of the Four Expeditions.

Of course, as a reward, being granted a title is not a big problem, but this is not a topic that needs to be discussed now.

The Four An generals are: Annan General Huang Zhong, Andong General Zhang Yan, Anxi General Tian Yu, and Anbei General Qianzhao.

The generals of Xiping are: Xu Huang, general of Pingnan, Liu Chong, general of Pingdong, Le Jin, general of Pingxi, and Ma Teng, general of Pingbei.

The four generals are: Zhang He, the south general, Guan Yu, the east general, Zhang Fei, the west general, and Tai Shici, the north general.

Um?The ministers were suddenly a little confused. Can they understand that Siping and Si'an are peaceful, but there is no Zhang He in the four towns?

His Majesty said before that he would not set up four generals for the time being. What happened to Zhang He?
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he is now the governor of Hebei, but this position cannot be permanent, right?

"Dadao, are you willing to serve as a chariot general?" Liu Bei looked at Zhang He.

With Zhang He's merits and contributions, the Chariot and Cavalry Generals deserve the title.

The ministers suddenly realized that this was the case. Although the Four Expeditions had not appointed generals, the generals of chariots and cavalry were still permanent generals.

With Zhang He's merits, there is no problem in being promoted to a general of chariots and cavalry, as long as he is not a general of chariots and cavalry anyway.

"Your Majesty, I... don't want to!" Zhang He shook his head and said.

The ministers were in disbelief. The generals of chariots and cavalry were not willing. Are you still planning to become a general?

Or, to go one step further?
This is also what many people are worried about. Now that the world is stable and Zhang Hequan is in power, it is difficult to say that it will not go further.

"I plan to set off next year for an expedition to the Western Regions. I hope your majesty will give you permission!" Zhang He requested.

"Why so fast?" Liu Bei never expected that Zhang He would leave so quickly.

"Start the expedition next year. We will first open the Western Region Protectorate. Then we will continue to the west. In three to five years, depending on the situation, we will conquer the Indian plains. While we are still young, we will reach Daqin within ten years. A few years later, we will be comfortable. I'm used to it, but I don't want to work so hard." Zhang He replied.

"Captain Zhang!" Tian Feng stepped forward, "The imperial court has just fought a long war, and it is time to recuperate."

"I recruited my own troops and headed west. I don't need any soldiers or pawns from the court." Zhang He retorted, "It's just relative. I hope to be crowned king outside the territory!"

The Han Dynasty prohibited people with different surnames from being crowned kings, but whether it was forbidden to crown kings from outside the territory was really unprecedented.

There is also an issue involved. Zhang He, Zhang Fei, Taishi Ci and Guan Yu are all brothers with different surnames.

We agreed at the beginning to live and die together, to share blessings and share hardships.

Now that Liu Bei is the emperor, will these brothers be crowned kings?
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the court became solemn!
　Why are there no Ni among the generals... Well, Zhao Yun, it's because he was defeated and his subsequent battle achievements were not enough to make him a general. It's also the reason why Zhang He wanted to take him with him to go on an expedition outside the territory.

　　You can't really let Zhang He fight on his own, right?It’s normal to have a few people around you to help.

　　For example, a few senior brothers or something.

　　For another example, if Pang Tong left it to China, then Zhuge Liang would take it away. Anyway, the journey is not over yet.

　　At least, if possible, I plan to hang out for about [-] days and eat up my full attendance this month. (laugh)
　　Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, ask for subscription!
