Although he gave up the territory and some interests of the Tianxiahui, the chamber of commerce of the Tianxiahui was still in Ji Yang's hands, and it was not difficult to raise 200,000 troops. What's more, Ji Yang has become the prince of Sichuan, and if he wants to do something business in Sichuan, it is simply invincible.

So in general, giving up the territory of the Tianxia Society to get the prince will have more advantages than disadvantages.

Of course, Ji Yang will not use his privileges to attack other businessmen, he only needs to use his identity as a prince to protect his own chamber of commerce, and then sweep the market with high-quality and low-cost goods, which is Ji Yang's biggest advantage.

Subsequently, Ji Yang sealed many officers according to the military establishment of the imperial court, with 7,000 people in one guard, and ruled over five offices. The command organ of Wei is called "Command and Envoy Division", and there is one commander envoy, two people who are in command of the third grade, four people who are in command of the third grade, two people who are in charge of the fourth rank of Wei, one person who has experienced the fifth grade, one person who is the governor of the seventh grade, one person who is the eighth rank of officials, and one ambassador and deputy envoy from the ninth grade, each performing their duties and being responsible for each level.

One thousand households has ten hundred houses under its jurisdiction, and there are 1,500 soldiers; One person from a thousand households, two people from a five-grade deputy one-thousand-household, two people from the five-product office, and one person from the sixth-grade officer. One hundred households has two general flags under its jurisdiction and 150 soldiers; One person from one hundred households is set up in one hundred households with six products, and one person from one hundred households with six products. The headquarters has five small flags and 56 soldiers; The small flag has jurisdiction over 10 soldiers.

After becoming a formal army, all the soldiers were paid according to the specifications of the imperial court.

The military salary was paid by Ji Yang himself, and originally a prince could only set up three guards, but he was far beyond the standard. However, there are many things that Ji Yang has transgressed, and there is no shortage of this one, and there are several princes in history who are particularly peaceful and self-serving.

Moreover, the emperor knew that he had a world meeting, but he just asked him to take back Sichuan, and did not ask him to dissolve, which was a tacit acquiescence. Probably the emperor also knew that Ji Yang would not disband these more than 200,000 horses so easily, and wanted to wait for a more suitable time, just like dealing with the Star Fleet.

"Marshal Jing, except for my 20,000 personal soldiers, the rest will be handed over to you. In addition to the cavalry, infantry, artillery, you pick another 20,000 men to come out and train a musket team. Ji Yang said.

"Lord Wang, could it be that the Star Workshop has developed a more powerful musket?" Jing Xiulian's heart moved, he knew that Ji Yang was going to develop a new type of musket.

"It's not yet developed, but it's only a matter of time, and your mission is to train 20,000 musketeers to get them used to the way muskets fight. When the new muskets are developed, I need them to be equipped and used proficiently. Ji Yang said.

"The last will understand." Jing Xiu said.

"Due to the lack of rate of fire of muskets, each musketeer was equipped with a bayonet, which could be used as a spearman when the enemy was close. You don't know what a bayonet is, it's a short knife attached to the end of a musket. Ji Yang said.

"This is a good formation, the bayonet can also be used as a dagger, simply draw 20,000 spearmen and train them to be musketeers. The spearmen were already good at using long weapons, and after the musket was equipped with a bayonet, it was almost the same as a long spear. Jing Xiu said.

"Well, you can do it." Ji Yang agreed.

In addition to the establishment reform, Ji Yang also had a plan, he decided to keep only 50,000 standing troops, and the rest of them were changed to reserves. The standing army selects the most elite soldiers, who are full-time soldiers, do not engage in any labor production, and train wholeheartedly.

And the reserve needs to work, and part of it is incorporated into the Chamber of Commerce to form a "convoy". The task of the escort team is to protect the Chamber of Commerce, and these years are full of bandits, and it is easy to be robbed without a warrior guard. Some of them were reorganized as "mercenaries", and their task was to set up a mercenary company to accept all kinds of special people, including bodyguards for other businessmen, and to be hired by other countries to participate in wars.

The South Seas, the Western Regions, the Middle East, and many countries in Europe have frequent civil wars, and these are all opportunities to make money.

The mercenaries can not only support themselves, but also earn Ji Yang a lot of money. In this way, Ji Yang's expenditure on military spending has been greatly reduced, and maybe the mercenaries can feed the 50,000 standing army.

"60,000 people for the escort team, 90,000 for mercenaries, different types of troops, you make a charter for me." Ji Yang told Jing Xiulian about the plan, and then handed him the task of recompilation.

"I'm going to do it right away." Jing Xiu replied.

He thought to himself: It's a pity that this prince doesn't want to be a businessman, more than 200,000 horses, if they are placed elsewhere, it will definitely be a huge burden. But being fooled by Ji Yang like this, not only is there no burden, but maybe he can make money.

60,000 convoys, 90,000 mercenaries, 50,000 standing troops, and 20,000 personal soldiers.

"The convoy should be relatively easy, and it is not a big problem to deal with horse thieves and bandits with their abilities. Mercenaries fight wars all year round, and even if they have less training, they should be very capable of actual combat. The standing army is the unit with the strictest military regulations, the most adequate training, and is only used at critical moments. "Ji Yang has a clear positioning and prospects for these three forces.

Ji Yang's 20,000 pro-soldiers are elite, and they are trained by excellent leaders, and they will not be bad in the future.

After he returned to the palace with his own soldiers, Jing Xiulian immediately began training, selection and reorganization.

According to the functions of the three troops, Jing Xiulian selected warriors who were good at defense, had good light skills, and wanted to support their parents to join the escort team. Choose a thorn with a strong personality, like to travel all over the world, and have strong habits in the rivers and lakes to enter the mercenary. Select warriors with a calm personality and strict discipline to enter the standing army.

Of course, it is impossible to have a complete mold, there are always some martial artists with different personalities. It's just that most of the warriors are more suitable for the troops they are in, and they can give full play to their abilities and the abilities of each unit.

The escort team was sent to the Chamber of Commerce for arrangement, and the original Chamber of Commerce of the World Association had nine treasurers, in all walks of life. The 60,000 guards passed, and each shopkeeper led more than 6,000 people, and distributed them below to the merchant groups in various places to carry out escort work.

It is inconvenient for mercenaries to use the name of Jiyang, so they are set up in the Ryukyu Kingdom, which is relatively close to the South Seas and the Middle East. According to Ji Yang's assumption, the wars in the Middle East in the South Seas were the most frequent, and the mercenaries should be the first to open the markets in these two places. They can be active in various countries with the help of the merchant ships of the Star Sect, which can not only hide their identities, but also protect the merchant ships by the way, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"What's the point of being a guard, or training all day long, this mercenary suits my appetite the most." Hong Qiandao is a sword master of the Ninefold Realm, he is already in his fifties, but because of his high martial arts realm, he looks like he is only in his thirties.

Hong Qiandao has been fighting in the rivers and lakes for decades and has rich combat experience, and his realm is not slowly practiced, but rushed up in life and death. During the two months of militarized management and training, Hong Qiandao felt that something was wrong with him.

If it weren't for the good benefits given by Ji Yang, Hong Qiandao would have almost become a deserter.

Fortunately, Ji Yang's reorganization gave Hong Qiandao a better choice to become a mercenary. When he learned that mercenaries needed to participate in the wars of various countries, he did not hesitate to choose this unit.

For some people, it is a very hard thing to be away from home and have no fixed place, but Hong Qiandao happens to like that kind of life. The knife licks the blood, fights bloodily, earns money and spends it happily, and the woman is not responsible for playing.

Most of the warriors who chose to become a mercenary were the same as Hong Qiandao.

A few were forced into it by Jing Xiulian because of insufficient preparation.

Ninety thousand mercenaries were sent to the Ryukyu Kingdom in batches on merchant ships of the Nakshatra faction. There was already a force of the Tianxia Society, only 5,000 men, because the Ryukyu Kingdom was too weak, and 5,000 warriors were enough to deter them.

"From now on, this is the corporate headquarters of the mercenaries, and when there is no mission, you will also have to train." The broken army was transferred to the Ryukyus and became the commander-in-chief of the mercenaries.

The broken army has reached the innate realm, and the swordsmanship is superb, which is enough to deter these 90,000 thorns.

Previously, he helped Tong Lu and the two of them establish the Shadow Pavilion in North Korea, and the foundation had been laid, and Po Jun didn't want to be an intelligence officer. He is the same type as Hong Qiandao, and after getting a new position, Pojun also feels that it is very suitable for him.

"I also need to train here, and I hope I will get the task sooner." Hong Qiandao thought helplessly.

There are also warriors who don't want to go on a mission and prefer to train at the company base.

——

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's November again, and the weather is gradually getting cooler.

More than 6 million acres of corn planted before have matured, and the more than 10,000 people who remained have begun to harvest. The people saw these yellow fruits for the first time, and some couldn't help but nibble on one, and the raw corn tasted sweet.

At harvest time, Ji Yang ordered the corn to be boiled and eaten, and the people ate the ripe corn and immediately liked this sweet fruit. In addition, the yield of corn is very large, and Ji Yang said before that the yield per mu is more than 1,000 catties, but after weighing it, it was found that the yield per mu was about 1,500 catties.

In addition to the corn planted in the fields of the palace, under the promotion of Jiyang, it was planted all over Sichuan. At the time of the harvest, the common people and officials were very surprised, and some conservative officials did not try their best to promote corn, but only planted a few acres of land, and regretted it. I believe that in the future, there will be no need for Ji Yang to issue another decree, and the peasant officials and ordinary people in various places should spontaneously plant corn on a larger scale.

The newly reclaimed corn of more than 6 million mu alone has a total output of more than 9 billion catties.

After harvesting, the corn is dried in the sun, then threshed by hand, and some of it is stored, and some of it is shipped to various places for sale. More than 9 billion catties of corn, a catty of corn is 5 cents, and if all of them are sold, you can get more than 40 million taels of silver.

Of course, it is impossible to sell them all, and the people eat a lot when they harvest, after all, more than 10,000 people are eating. Another billion catties were left for storage, part of which was used as military rations, and part of which was to be distributed to the people of Sichuan next year as seeds. Some of them will also be eaten during transportation, and these losses will add up to about 2.5 billion catties.

Then there is so much food pouring into the market, and the price is probably not satisfactory. Even so, after all of them are sold, they can at least harvest tens of millions of taels of silver.

"Your Majesty, the King of Shu promoted these three crops called corn and potatoes and sweet potatoes in Sichuan, with extremely high yields per mu, corn up to 1,500 catties, potatoes up to more than 3,000 catties, and sweet potatoes up to more than 4,000 catties." He received a report from Yanting, the envoy of Sichuan, and immediately presented three crops to the emperor on the morning of the second day.

As soon as this statement came out, the cultural relics of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar, some were very shocked, and some did not believe it at all.

"Seriously!" Even Zhu Ding was frightened.

The yield per mu of rice is only three or four hundred catties, and the yield of wheat per mu is only five or six hundred catties, and it must be intensively cultivated.

At first glance, when he heard the figures of 1,500 catties, more than 3,000 catties, and more than 4,000 catties per mu, Zhu Ding suspected that he had heard it wrong. If there are crops with such a high yield per mu in the world, then the Central Plains still needs to worry about the lack of food, and still worry about the drought and floods that harm the people?

The people who drowned in the flood were nothing compared to the famine that followed due to the failure of the harvest.

"Your Majesty, please see, this is a piece of corn, and the fruit on it is very large and very full. Moreover, this corn is very easy to feed, it does not need to be intensively cultivated, and the requirements for water and soil are not as high as those of wheat and rice. Tobe Shangshu said.

"There is such a spiritual seed in the world, but the King of Shu did not present it early." Zhu Ding held a piece of corn, and his face was gloomy.

Crops like corn were placed in the Ming Dynasty as much as nuclear bombs and played a strategic role.

"Your Majesty, the King of Shu is not reluctant to submit, but he just wants to try the seeds in Sichuan now, and he will start to promote them when he has the results." Hubu Shangshu said a good word for Ji Yang, because these three-flavor crops were ordered by Ji Yang to be presented to Hubu Shangshu according to the inspection envoy Yanting.

Otherwise, Beijing is so far away from Sichuan, and by the time they know that Sichuan is promoting new crops, it will probably be a year later. There is no need for Ji Yang to delay this year, instead of waiting for the emperor to find out, it is better to pass it on first and sell his favor to the Hubu Shangshu.

If he could, Ji Yang didn't want to stand on the opposite side of the Manchu Dynasty relics, and always had to make friends with a few ministers.

"I see, why didn't the King of Shu present it in person?" Zhu Ding asked.

"Well, the King of Shu didn't say it, but Weichen felt that it was a good thing that the King of Shu didn't present it in person." Hubu Shangshu received Ji Yang's benefits, so he naturally wanted to help him speak. The promotion of corn potatoes and sweet potatoes has a far-reaching impact on the Central Plains and is a major event that will go down in history.

"I see." After Zhu Ding calmed down, he thought about it carefully, and he also felt so.

If Ji Yang had made a big show and personally presented three crops, wouldn't he have won the hearts of the people in the entire Central Plains.

Thinking of this, Zhu Ding suddenly found that Ji Yang was still quite good, and he gave up such a big credit.
