The unification of the Great Heng Empire has greatly stimulated the countries on the Blue Star, especially the neighboring countries of the Central Continent and the Southern Continent.

A vote of countries looked at the Daheng Empire with fear and even trembling, for fear that the unified Daheng Empire would immediately launch a war of foreign expansion.

It's just that their fears won't come true for the time being.

Although there are many voices within the Daheng Empire that they want to expand externally after reunification, in order to continue the glorious tradition of Daheng for thousands of years.

However, the people of Daheng themselves also know that it is unrealistic to launch foreign expansion as soon as they are unified, and now that Daheng has just been unified, even the northern states have not yet had time to establish a perfect administrative rule, and even the reorganization of the troops in the feudal towns of the states has not yet been completed.

Today's Daheng Empire is in a state of ruin, there are still a lot of things to do, and at the same time, a large number of national bonds issued during and after the unification war for the aftermath also brought heavy financial pressure to the nascent Lin dynasty.

In this case, in fact, it is difficult for the Great Heng Empire to carry out a large-scale reorganization war, let alone directly launch external expansion.

From last winter to spring, the high-level leaders of the Lin dynasty led by Lin Ziran were busy with internal affairs, how could they pay attention to the changes outside.

The northern states were to be incorporated into the empire and reformed according to the administrative model of the new dynasty.

At the same time, it is necessary to restore agriculture, industry and commerce in the states and ensure the recovery of people's livelihood after the war, which are huge and complicated affairs.

In addition, there are military affairs, don't think that there will be no military affairs after the end of the unification war, in fact, the work of the army and navy in the second year of Qiansheng is still heavy, especially the army part.

They also need to clean up the many chaotic bandits and local armed forces in various places, whether they are absorbed, disbanded, or annihilated, etc., in short, they need to clean up the chaotic local armed forces in various places.

At the same time, after the end of the unification war, it was necessary to carry out unified planning and reorganization of all army units, and at the same time, various local militia regiments, engineer divisions, garrison divisions, and field units were involved.

Lin Ziran was busy holding various meetings, meeting with different officials, and dealing with many documents almost all day long.

On 18 January, Lin Ziran convened an enlarged military conference at the Mirror Palace, which was attended by more than 100 high-ranking generals of the army and navy.

At this meeting, Lin Ziran stressed a number of important tasks after the reunification war, including requesting local illegal armed forces, reorganizing troops, demobilizing some officers and men, and establishing a sound mobilization system.

These issues are important work in the next year or even a few years, and Lin Ziran emphasized at the meeting that it is just to make everyone pay more attention to it.

In addition to discussing these issues, Lin Ziran also held a high-level award ceremony on the last day of the meeting.

Lin Ziran officially promoted Xu Zhongshu, Wu Guanlin, Liang Chenglei, Zhang Hanqiu, Song You, and Wang Dao as field marshals, and Duan Hongxiao as sea marshals.

On this day, Lin Ziran not only promoted seven army and navy marshals, but also promoted nine army and navy ministers, bringing the number of active army and navy secretaries to 23, including the relatively special Huo Jianchang.

He was originally the commander of the Northwest Garrison, although he was not the governor of the Northwest State, but he was the de facto king of the Northwest.

Last winter, he led more than 100,000 Northwest garrison troops to revolt as a whole at the last moment, which not only prevented the Northwest Prefecture from war, but also led the Northwest Garrison Army to hold the Xihai defense line for more than a month after surrendering, until the handover of the defense line was completed with the First Army and other troops, ensuring the safety of the Xihai defense line.

Before the handover, Huo Jianchang also cleaned up the local administrative system of Northwest Prefecture by the way, so that the empire could accept Northwest Prefecture more smoothly.

Later, he took the Northwest Garrison Army to accept the reorganization, and the Northwest Garrison Army selected the elite to be reorganized into the 22nd Army, and Huo Jianchang was specially appointed by Lin Ziran as the commander of the 22nd Army.

He was also the only one among the many senior generals who surrendered to Cheng in the middle and late stages of the Unification War (non-Nanhai Prefecture period) who was able to continue to serve as a unit commander after surrendering.

This is Lin Ziran's reward for maintaining stability in the Northwest Prefecture and protecting the West Sea Defense Line!

Not only does it have real military affairs, but it also has a marquisate title!

But if nothing else, he will not serve as the commander of the 22nd Army in the future, and continue to let a non-descendant general serve as the commander of the first army, and it is still the original army, Lin Ziran is naturally not at ease.

So this time, he was simply promoted to Shangqing, and then transferred back to the army command of the Beijing Division, of course, in order to avoid people saying that he crossed the river and demolished the bridge, so Huo Jianchang will be transferred to the army staff as executive deputy chief of staff.

In addition to Wu Guanlin, the army general staff is the first major department of the army; in addition to the minister, there are also two deputy ministers, the executive deputy minister and the deputy director of operations, the deputy director of operations is the deputy minister with real power, who is in charge of leading the operations department, the intelligence department, and other core subordinate organs, while the executive deputy director is actually dealing with the internal affairs of the general staff and does not involve operational command.

In addition to Huo Jianchang, a relatively special person, although several other senior generals who defected to Cheng in winter were also awarded the secretary of state, they were all in vain positions, mainly senior advisers.

During the War of Unification, more than 500 senior generals of the Imperial Army surrendered to the senior generals of the feudal towns above the rank of junior military lord, most of these people retained their original military titles, and they were basically awarded various fictitious positions or transitional actual positions in the early stage, but they would soon be transferred.

Subsequently, some of these five or six hundred people were transferred to various agencies as senior advisers, depending on the situation; Some are arranged to retire and become civil servants.

In the later period, a small number of people who cooperated well and showed their loyalty to the new dynasty also gained the opportunity to take up actual positions, and there were already more than 20 generals who were serving in actual positions above the level of Zhuanqing, and some of them even served as division commanders or even deputy army commanders.

Generally speaking, the current enlarged military conference is to emphasize the main focus of work in the next one year or even two or three years, and at the same time to award awards to senior generals who have made meritorious contributions.

The military lord is just one of them, and there are also noble titles.

Lin Ziran took advantage of this opportunity to give the generals in the army more than 300 hereditary noble titles of more than 300 barons, and more than 200 barons who were not hereditary for life.

A small number of high-ranking generals were even awarded the title of marquis or even duke, such as Wu Guanlin, who was awarded the title of duke.

This gave the empire more than four hundred new military aristocrats.

In addition to the military aristocracy, the Lin dynasty of the Daheng Empire has also successively canonized more than 40 hereditary titles and more than 50 lifelong barons in the civil system, mainly Luo Mazi, a sycophant, Ding Quankun and other founding civil officials.

In addition, there are a number of Toucheng Domain towns or senior generals, but the number is relatively small, only more than 20, mainly Huo Jianchang, Miao Xinjia and other Toucheng Domain towns or senior generals.

In addition, more than fifty old nobles were recognized and re-canonized.

As a result, the aristocratic main body of the Great Henglin Dynasty was formed!
