"Hehe, then it's time for you to know, we did build the first ladder in human history in the space city, once the ladder is completed, then the distance between us and space will be completely shortened, and we can catch up and become the forefront of the aerospace industry in the world. Li Quan said, and he didn't plan to hide anything.

Then he continued: "But this may touch the interests of many great powers, although our New Tang Empire is strong enough to ignore them now, but just in case, we need to continue to strengthen our armaments, and I plan to hold a national military parade before the completion of the ladder to deter Xiaoxiao." ”

"This requires you to prepare in advance, and the matter about the ladder is likely to be exposed in advance, then our military parade will also be advanced, you are running out of time, you need to be as soon as possible. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, please rest assured, the minister promises to complete the task. Liu Ming was very happy to hear that the armament had been strengthened.

"Well, although our current weapons are leading the world, they can't be completely suppressed, they must be upgraded, this matter has been handed over to Fengping their research institute, and it should be able to produce results soon, you go down and contact him, and then arrange the parade according to the latest weapons, and then show me the plan after that. Li Quan instructed.

"Yes, the ministers and Feng Cifu sincerely cooperated. Liu Ming commanded, what he was most looking forward to now was the weapon upgrade in His Majesty's mouth, if His Majesty was still in front of him, he would have flown to the research institute to find out.

"By the way, our current forces are still a little insufficient, although there are robots as auxiliaries, but this is not in line with our superpower identity, now the country is getting bigger and bigger, whether it is to defend the country, or to deter countries with ulterior motives, we must carry out an expansion. Li Quan thought for a while and said.

At present, the New Tang Empire has a sky army, that is, the Kunpeng Army of 2,500 people, the Air Force, that is, the Vermilion Bird Army, eight wings plus air defense forces, radar troops and ground support for a total of 5,000 people, and the army, that is, the ten battalions of the White Tiger Army include 16,000 missile troops, 1,200 Xuanjia Army, 5,000 Royal Forest Army, 6,000 navy, 8,000 police plus special police, and 20,000 reserve troops.

60,000 robots.

That is, the real combat force is only 35,700 people, and the total armed force is 63,700 people.

According to the census data of the New Tang Empire last month, the current population structure is 25.03 million people, but the number of newborns born in the past four years accounts for 7.88 million, accounting for more than one-third of the population.

You must know that in those years, Li Quan had actively or passively immigrated nearly five million young and beautiful girls from Indonesia, the Middle East, Ukraine, Russia, and other countries.

At present, the number of minors in the New Tang Empire, that is, the population under the age of 16, is 11.09 million, accounting for nearly half of the total population, which shows that the New Tang Empire is a young country with a low average age, and the future is promising.

At present, the current situation of the New Tang Empire is that there are more men and girls, especially adult women, which are more than three times the number of adult men, so the current number of healthy young and middle-aged men between the ages of 16 and 40 in the New Tang Empire is 2.46 million.

"Your Majesty, I wanted to suggest to Your Majesty a long time ago, the number of soldiers in our country is indeed seriously insufficient, fortunately, there is an army of robots to assist, coupled with intelligent military weapons, otherwise even the basic defense of the country will not be possible. Liu Ming said excitedly.

He is the general of the New Tang Empire and one of the heads of the military department, of course, I hope that His Majesty will pay more attention to the army.

"Well, in the future, the country will be transformed, and it will be more space-oriented, so our Kunpeng Army needs to be strengthened, in addition to having the Aerospace Legion in the future, the Kunpeng Army also needs interstellar armament in the real sense, so I plan to add a new branch of the Kunpeng Army, armed spacecraft, mainly responsible for escort, rescue, exploration and other tasks, and the Aerospace Fighter will be mainly responsible for the battle from space to the planet's inner space in the future, and the Kunpeng Army is still in charge of you, I hope you can lead the Kunpeng Army to go further. Li Quan said what he thought.

According to the products seen in the system mall, there will definitely be a real military starfleet in the future, but it will take time, but the research institute can still do it to arm civilian spaceships, which can be regarded as a transitional use.

As long as there are no alien enemies, just the water blue star, such a configuration is more than enough.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will live up to Your Majesty's trust, and I am willing to go to the soup for Your Majesty. Liu Ming said excitedly.

"Well, in this way, the 2,500 people of the Kunpeng Army are a little stretched, so let's do it, since the Kunpeng Army will be the main force in the future, then this time we will directly recruit 12,500 people and expand the Kunpeng Army to 15,000 people. Li Quan was very generous.

When Liu Ming heard this, he immediately determined that His Majesty was really ready to make a bloody capital this time, not just for training as before, the Kunpeng Army had been suppressed for so many years, and it was finally going to appear in the eyes of the world openly.

And as soon as it appeared, it appeared with the trend of Mount Tai pressing the top.

"The Suzaku Army will not move for the time being, and when it is equipped with Suzaku seventh-generation fighters, the Air Force already has an invincible momentum and does not need to expand its army. Li Quan thought about it, and the absolute air force did not move for the time being.

Liu Ming didn't squeak when he heard it, His Majesty was right, even if the sixth-generation fighter being equipped now, the air force of the New Tang Empire was the strongest air force in the world.

"The White Tiger Army, as an army, the disadvantage of the small population of our New Tang Empire can only be made up for by the robot army, but we still have to expand the army, recruit 14,000 new people, and expand the army to 30,000. Li Quan said, and then thought of something and said:

"However, the White Tiger Army must also be subdivided, and the robot troops and missile troops cannot be mixed together, and in the future, the White Tiger Army will be divided into robot corps, armored corps and missile corps, as well as special brigades. ”

"There are 20,000 robot legions, 4,000 armored legions, 5,000 missile legions, 1,000 special brigades, and with a robot corps of 20,000 people, it should be able to control more than 100,000 robot troops, which is enough for the defense of Nutang for the time being. Li Quan said.

"The Xuanjia Army will be divided into two parts in the future, one part is responsible for space, becoming an interstellar mecha unit, which can carry out space melee combat or planetary landing operations and other functions, and the other is the original intraplanetary combat mecha unit. Li Quan said.

"The interstellar mecha force is the main force in the future, and the army will be expanded by 4,000 people for the time being, while the original kamikaze mecha force can be maintained at 1,000 people. ”

"The Navy needs to recruit 4,000 people from the coast guard force and expand the army to 10,000 people, if it is not enough, it can recruit new people, and in the future, it will increase investment in electronic police and reduce the number of police. Li Quan said again.

According to Li Quan's plan, after the expansion of the army, the New Tang Empire will have 65,000 main troops, and various weapons will also be upgraded, it can be said that the military strength of Xintang after the expansion will be more than five times that of the previous one.

"The above are some of my ideas, you need to discuss it with the people in the military department, and according to this idea, you can prepare a more suitable and rigorous army expansion plan for me in the new Tang Dynasty, and the time should be fast. Li Quan said.

"Yes, the minister promises to come up with a feasible plan for His Majesty to review in the shortest possible time. Liu Ming assured.

"Well, let's go down first. Li Quan saw the anxious Liu Ming and stopped keeping him.

Research institute.

"Feng Cifu, you have finally come out, Your Majesty asked me to come to you, quickly show me our new weapon." Liu Ming ran into the research institute, but he could only go to the meeting room, the core place, except for Feng Ping and Li Quan, outsiders were not allowed to enter.

"The general is really a rare guest, don't be impatient, things can't fly here. Feng Ping pointed to the projection equipment in his hand and said.
