After learning some things from Ye Jianan that were not included in the intelligence memorial, Liu Sheng asked him to retreat.

He also sent people to summon Shi Lang, Huang Tao, Wang Shouzhe and Zheng Zunqian.

Soon the four people arrived.

The ceremony is over.

Liu Sheng said: "I have called you here to discuss our next trip to Da Chu."

Hearing this, Shi Lang and the other four couldn't help but look slightly moved. Although Liu Sheng didn't have the ability to read minds, he probably guessed that the four of them probably didn't want to sail away again so soon.

He said: "You don't have to worry. Even if you want to go to Dachu for the second time, you have to wait until next year. Therefore, you still have at least a few months to repair."

"In addition, if you don't want to go to Dachu again, I won't force you. This applies to both generals and soldiers."

"In the end, even if most people are willing to go to Dachu again, you can only carry one-third of the veterans on this second voyage."

"This move is not only to allow the officers to take turns, but also to train more naval officers who are familiar with the North Pacific waterways."

After hearing this, Shi Lang and others were obviously relieved - they had a few months, enough for them to rest and visit relatives.

So the four of them said "yes" together.

Then Wang Shouzhe asked: "Your Majesty, I wonder what is the main mission of our second trip to Dachu?"

"Stabilize the waterway and establish an ocean supply point." Liu Sheng said, "From Tian'anfu to Dachu, we need to first go north along the west coast of the Pacific, and then along a series of islands in the North Pacific to Ezo."

"This waterway is 20,000 miles long. Previously, your exploration fleet only had about 2,000 people. You just need to start preparing more supplies. If you don't lose ships along the way, you won't be afraid of lack of supplies."

"However, in a few years, I will send tens of thousands of troops to Dachu, and the material supply problem will not be so easy to solve."

"Just in case, you must establish at least ten ocean-going supply points in the next few years."

"Save a certain amount of supplies at each supply point and leave some soldiers to guard it."

"In this way, not only will the logistics of the expeditionary force be more secure, but future fleet exchanges will also be safer."

After hearing what Liu Sheng said, Shi Lang and others were shocked.

They never expected that Liu Sheng actually wanted to expedition to Chu!

That's more than 20,000 miles away from Da'ei.

But considering the special nature of Dachu, a few people could barely understand it.

The four of them are all still young, the oldest is no more than forty years old, and they are still eager to make contributions.

If they are here in Da'ei, with their current positions, they can at most make some moderate achievements. If they want to be like the founding generals such as Yang Heqing, Peng Youyi, He Lianyue, etc., and make great achievements in making marquises and dukes, it will be worse than It’s hard to reach the sky.

But if he followed Liu Sheng in his expedition to Chu, it would be much easier to achieve great success.

After thinking about this, the four of them all showed excitement and excited expressions, and they raised their hands together and said: "I will live up to your majesty's trust!"

Liu Sheng smiled and nodded, "In the next few months, if you should go home, go home, and if you should rest, rest. Just leave military affairs to other generals."

"It won't be too late to return to Longshou County one month before setting sail in late spring next year."

The four of them raised their hands together and said, "Thank you for your grace!"

After the 3rd Hailongwei Brigade was transferred to Longshou County, the families of middle- and low-level generals and ordinary soldiers were also moved here, and a fairly generous settlement allowance was given.

But the high-ranking general's home is still in Da'ei.

Therefore, if Shi Lang and others want to visit relatives, they have to go back to the other side.

···
In the thirteenth year of Qianyuan, Da'ei sent 200,000 troops to first destroy the Yarkand Khanate, and then expel the Oara tribes to the west.

Later, the Western Regions Province and the Tianshan Province were established.

The provincial government of the Western Regions Province is temporarily located in Yarkand (originally Yarkand City).

The provincial governance of Tianshan Province is temporarily located in Yining.

Yining is located at the easternmost end of the Ili River Valley. A few dozen miles to the north is the former site of Gongyue City in the Tang Dynasty. Yining was originally the place where the four major tribes of the Oara Alliance met, and was occupied by the Zhungeer tribe, the leader of the alliance. It is not known what the locals called this place. After the Yi army captured this place, Liu Sheng issued an imperial decree and changed its name to "Yining".

In the fourteenth year of Qianyuan's reign, the three great Khans of Mobei Mongolia sent their legitimate sons to Nanjing for an audience. They called Liu Sheng the King of Khans and expressed their submission to Damei.

The Damei court then established the Mobei Mongolian Autonomous Province.

Later, he sent troops to build a city between Kent Khan Mountain and the Seven Rivers Basin, naming it "Yunzhong". As a result, the provincial administration of Mobei Province was established in Yunzhong New City.

In the late autumn of the fourteenth year of Qianyuan's reign.

The Taipei Nanyang Navy and the Nanhai Navy severely damaged the Spanish fleet several times, defeated the Dutch fleet that tried to take advantage of the opportunity, and took advantage of the situation to seize the Malacca Strait controlled by the Dutch.

Subsequently, the First Division of the Standing Army and the garrison brigades of several southern provinces landed on Luzon Island with the assistance of the Navy.

Within a few months, they captured several cities such as Manila, Dagupan, Laoag, and Tuguegarao on Luzon Island, and controlled many important islands and ports.

At the end of the year, Da'ei established the Nanhai Province. Change the name of Manila to "Eilai" and make it the province of Nanhai.

In the fifteenth year of Qianyuan, the Nanyang Navy and the Nanhai Navy cooperated with the First Division to continue the campaign in Nanyang, and successively captured several other large islands in the Luzon Islands that were originally controlled by Spain.

Da'e's power in Nanyang also became more and more stable.

Encouraged by the imperial court, more and more people traveled to Southeast Asia, where they reclaimed wasteland, farmed, and mined mountains, making a fortune.

Suddenly, there was a craze in the southern provinces of Dawei to go to Southeast Asia...

···
It was the first day of August in the fifteenth year of Qianyuan.

In the Imperial City, all departments and grades of the Royal School resume as usual.

Liu Rui took his guards and maids to send a group of younger brothers and sisters to school.

A few years later, Liu Rui not only grew into a handsome sixteen-year-old boy, but also officially graduated from the high school of the Royal School.

Although his graduation score was not first in his grade, he was still ranked ninth, and he also received an admission notice from Nanjing University.

If things develop normally, he will go to Nanjing University.

After four or five years of study, you can choose a field to work in, accumulate mid- and low-level work experience, and then return to serve in the court.

But now he doesn't have this chance.

Because the throne in the family will soon be vacant, waiting for him to inherit it.

After sending one or twenty younger brothers and sisters to school and watching them enter their respective classes, Liu Rui rode his bicycle to the front of Tianxin Hall.

He parked his bicycle in the "parking shed" in front of the temple, adjusted his posture a little, and then entered the temple.

On the dragon throne, the 42-year-old Liu Sheng was handling the memorial in a leisurely manner.

After being the emperor for more than ten years, Liu Sheng is now extremely skilled in handling various state affairs. There are few things that can make him think over and over again.

Liu Rui bowed to Liu Sheng and said, "My sons and ministers are here to see my father."

"Have your brothers and sisters been sent to school?"

"Sent it."

Liu Sheng nodded, "Then go and sit in your seat."

"Yes."

Liu Rui responded and sat down at a table on the left.

Liu Sheng motioned to the Secretariat staff to send over the prepared pile of memorials and said, "Please deal with these memorials - if you have any questions, ask them together after they have been dealt with."

'Does this make me try to handle state affairs? '

Liu Ruilao was a little speechless, but he still responded and dealt with the memorial seriously. (End of chapter)
