Chapter 1175 Martial Arts

Zheng Ying frowned and thought about it.

"One million people? Our army now has about 100 to 70 people. Your Majesty plans to expand the army to 80 million?"

"Yes, His Majesty intends to expand the army to one million."

Han Zhuo nodded and said, "Your Majesty also plans to distribute the thirty armies into seven corps. The seven corps are Northwest Corps, Southwest Corps, Liaodong Corps, Southeast Corps, Lingnan Corps, Guanzhong Corps and Gyeonggi Corps. Seven Corps They guard different frontiers respectively, and each has several armies under its jurisdiction.

And the commanders of the Seventh Battalion will become the commanders of the newly established corps in the future. They will be transferred at the same level, and their responsibilities will be clearer and more severe. His Majesty said that each of the seven corps has its own tasks, which are very serious. Zheng Shuai He will serve as the coach of the newly established Southwest Corps and guard the Southwest. "

Most of Zheng Ying's worries disappeared.

The brothers who came together from Burma have some confidence in the "Marshal", but now that the Marshal has become the emperor, no one can guarantee whether he will treat them as before, and everyone still uses this kind of The method made the commander-in-chief the emperor, but it is hard to guarantee that the commander-in-chief will not have any lumps in his heart.

Back then Song Taizu acted like the emperor. Although he didn't kill the heroes, he also released his military power with a glass of wine.

It is obvious to all how miserable the military generals of the Northern Song Dynasty were suppressed in the future.

Now it is not whether everyone is willing or not, but whether the emperor wants to, if the emperor wants to, do everyone really dare to resist?
Xiao Ruxun's prestige is not achieved in one day, it is the result of thousands of days and nights of bloody battles and bloody killings, leading everyone out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, from the officers to the soldiers of the Qin army, no one knows their status The object of allegiance is the emperor Xiao Ruxun?
This is where the great prestige of the founding emperor of the immediate emperor lies.

Who can compete with Xiao Ruxun for prestige?

If he really makes a move, it is estimated that the brothers will find it difficult to resist. They can only obediently hand over their military power and go home to become a rich man. This is the best ending. If Xiao Ruxun moves closer to Zhu Yuanzhang, it is really hard to say up.

But now it seems that the situation is not as bad as everyone imagined. Although Xiao Ruxun ordered the reorganization of the Qin Army, it seems that he has no posture to attack the veterans in the army, but a posture to continue to appoint everyone to work hard.

Then Han Zhuo's words completely made Zheng Ying's worries disappear.

"You probably don't know yet. His Majesty has promulgated the five-year reorganization plan of the Great Qin Army and the five-year plan for the Northern Expedition. It is planned that within five years, all the rebellions in the Great Qin will disappear, all the rebellious officials and thieves will disappear, and all external worries will be resolved. , The army reorganization plan was completed, and the army of 100 million was fully staffed.

Then, five years later, that is, in the seventh year of Longwu, His Majesty will carry out the Northern Expedition on the Grasslands. With all the strength of the country, the Northern Expedition will go deep into the Mobei, and will fight to the death with the Northern Captives. Shi Yanran is nothing to worry about, this is His Majesty's goal, and it is also the goal of my courtiers. "

When Han Zhuo said this, his eyes were full of brilliance, and Zheng Ying couldn't help but not believe it.

"Your Majesty really intends to conquer the northern captives in five years' time, a war that will destroy the country?"

"Yes, the battle of the country!"

Han Zhuo said excitedly: "Your Majesty has always believed that the expulsion of the Northern Prisoners is only temporary. Given time, the Northern Prisoners will surely make a comeback. At that time, if we don't react in time, we will fall into the predicament of the previous Ming Dynasty and cannot extricate ourselves.

Therefore, His Majesty has been accumulating strength. In five years, he will reorganize the army, train the army, raise war horses, and solve internal and external troubles. After five years, His Majesty will organize hundreds of thousands of troops to carry out the Northern Expedition, and eliminate the worries of the northern captives in one fell swoop. I, Daqin, will no longer have to suffer from northern captives in the future! "

"Okay!"

Zheng Ying was overjoyed: "That's great! Very good! I didn't expect His Majesty to have such a grand goal, so I, Zheng, must join that Northern Expedition, and go to the grasslands to fight the northern captives to the death!"

Han Zhuo smiled.

"It's not just Zheng Shuai, I and other civil servants also want to make meritorious deeds in that big battle, and we will have a wife and a son. If there is a real battle, it will definitely be an endless situation. When the time comes, hundreds of thousands of Daqin troops will cross the desert. Directly smashing the old lair of the northern captives, doing it even more simply than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, then, tsk tsk..."

Han Zhuo was already thinking about how prosperous the martial arts of the Great Qin Dynasty would be at that time.

If that battle can be done to the fullest, then the word "Wu" must be included in the posthumous title of His Majesty Xiao Ruxun a hundred years later.

Zheng Ying nodded repeatedly.

"What kind of situation should that be... But, that is to say, His Majesty decided to solve all the Southwest issues within five years?"

"It's not just a problem in the southwest? None of the five southwestern provinces can escape, nor can the northern provinces. And let me tell you, His Majesty has allocated five armies with 15 troops to the Northwest Corps, only to guard Gansu Does one place need 15 people?"

Han Zhuo asked Zheng Ying.

Zheng Ying was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "You mean, His Majesty plans to transfer the Western Regions..."

"Yes! Since the founding ancestor of the former Ming Dynasty, the forces of the former Ming gradually withdrew from the Western Regions, but the Western Regions have been the main way for the Han family to communicate with the Western Regions since ancient times. It is regarded as the territory of the Great Qin, and intends to expand the territory of the Western Regions."

Zheng Ying suddenly felt a little itchy.

"Who is the commander of the Northwest Corps?"

"Zhao Hu."

Han Zhuo said a name that Zheng Ying was not surprised by.

"That's also appropriate. Zhao Hu is the oldest of the generals under His Majesty's command. He has served His Majesty the longest. He has made great military achievements. He is loyal to His Majesty and obeys orders. It would be appropriate for Zhao Hu to guard Gansu. It seems that His Majesty wants to protect Zhao Hu as a hereditary duke."

Zheng Ying looked at Han Zhuo somewhat enviously, and Han Zhuo shook his head: "Currently, there is no Duke in Great Qin."

"That should be the case, otherwise, there is really no reward."

Zheng Ying was a little disappointed, but there was no more loss. He would be terrified if he really got the duke title. The emperor, does he not plan to continue using him.

Since this kind of thing didn't happen now, then Zheng Ying didn't have to worry about it, at least for the next five years. If His Majesty wants to use troops against the northern captives, these famous generals are indispensable.

At that time, they will surely usher in the glory of the Great Qin Empire.

Han Zhuo hadn't finished speaking yet.

"That's not all. His Majesty not only plans to expand the territory in the northwest, but also plans to use troops again soon."

"Use troops again soon? Is it acceptable to use troops again before the end here? If true, this is the third time to use troops."

Zheng Ying looked at Han Zhuo in surprise: "Where does Your Majesty plan to use troops?"

Han Zhuo said: "Although the country of Wa is not easy, His Majesty has decided to solve the problem of the country of Wa completely and get rid of the worries of the country of Wo. Around the Great Qin, the country of Wa is the last country that has not completely surrendered. If it is not completely surrendered, Your Majesty very dissatisfied."

Zheng Ying thought for a while, nodded and said: "The Japanese rebellion and the Korean War were indeed extraordinary. The Japanese country is indeed not an opponent that should be underestimated. If the Japanese country suddenly rebelled when we were fighting with the northern captives in full swing, we would not be spared. Free up your energy to deal with them."

"Yes, the General Staff also thinks so, and it is precisely because they are worried that a Japanese country with a population of tens of millions who will not submit will suddenly make trouble when our army makes a large-scale northern expedition to the northern captives, so it is recommended that Your Majesty completely get rid of the worries of the Japanese country as soon as possible. "

Han Zhuo said slowly, "Your Majesty has decided to destroy the Japanese kingdom in a single battle, and completely cut off any worries."
