Chapter 116: Keep doing things

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

After writing three secret decrees, they explained the three big golden eagles respectively, and sent them to Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng and Cao Bianjiao, watching the three big golden eagles fly away, Zhu Youxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whew!"

He took a long breath and exhaled slowly, and he regained his calm mood.

Ming is the day when Wang Qinian's Qilin Legion and Cao Wenzhao's Vermilion Bird Legion will go on the expedition again.

These two, although it is the beginning of the first month, the civil and military officials in the capital are also very busy, and everyone is doing all kinds of logistics and supply work for the two legions that are about to go out.

The emperor's temperament, after these few months, everyone's groping and what they have seen and heard have basically been figured out.

The affairs of the army are the emperor's scales, and they must be completed meticulously.

Otherwise, this wise and wonderful emperor is really capable of killing.

With the combat effectiveness and armament of the Qilin Legion and the Vermilion Bird Legion, it was easy to defeat and completely control Baoding Mansion and Hejian Mansion, without the slightest problem.

The only problem is time.

Their two legions, from the beginning of the expedition to the complete control of these two provinces, only had a total of one month.

Hejian Mansion and Baoding Mansion combined, the territory is about the same size as Shunfu, and the population is not less than that of Shunfu.

In this era, the population of the Ming Empire was mainly concentrated in the Central Plains and the south of the Yangtze River.

The same is true of the distribution of wealth.

Even with the advent of the Ice Age, the places that were greatly affected were only a few provinces in the northwest of the Ming Empire.

The vegetation there has been largely destroyed, soil erosion is severe, and when the disaster strikes, there is basically no resistance.

Other provinces, although they have also been affected somewhat, are not a big problem.

The biggest reason why those peasant uprisings in history have become bigger and bigger, one after another, is man-made disasters, followed by disasters.

Before Zhu Youxiao was reborn, the civil and military generals and princely families of this era were truly blinded by money and power.

They didn't even regard themselves as officials and subjects of the Ming Empire, and they were all planning to make money.

Becoming an official is just to live a life of drunkenness and dreams, and most of them have lost the righteousness of the country and the nation.

Because on March 3, the dragon raised its head, which was the day when the Jiangnan puppet dynasty was established.

It is impossible for Zhu Youxiao to just look at it like this, and let those southern traitors be so arrogant.

He's going to do things, big things!

He wants to continue and keep doing big things, so that those rebels in the south will be terrified, and they will not be able to live all day.

……

On the third day of the first month, the southeast wind blows.

Today is a return to the south, yesterday it was still cold, but today it makes people feel a little stuffy.

It seems that the first spring rain of spring, these two will come.

The sun had just emerged from the thick clouds, and outside the Guangqu Gate, there were already soldiers dressed in black clothes and black armor.

The soldiers of the Suzaku Legion and the Qilin Legion are lined up in phalanxes and are marching along the Great Official Road.

The two legions, out of the capital, will go their separate ways.

The Suzaku Legion marched all the way east, heading in the direction of Tsusanwei, and was responsible for the occupation and control of Hejian Province.

The Qilin Legion went straight to the south and was responsible for cleaning up and controlling the work of Baoding Mansion.

Zhu Youxiao personally came out to see off the soldiers, and explained some things to Cao Wenzhao and Wang Qinian, and watched the army leave.

This time, the two major field armies left the capital, and it was not necessary to return to the capital.

However, it only refers to the actions of the legions, and the military is different.

In the future of the Ming Empire, the soldiers will carry out the rotation rest system, not a special situation, even the way of fighting, each regiment will also adopt the mode of division and regiment rotation in the future.

Every year, the soldiers of each regiment have at least one month of vacation, and they take turns to go home to visit relatives or something, as you can arrange yourself.

This is also the military welfare model that Zhu Youxiao wants to try out, and the problems are found to be corrected again, and it will not be officially implemented until a mature system emerges.

Even the military discharge system is being preliminarily formulated.

Wait until five years later, start preparing for trial implementation, and there will be no problem before promulgation.

However, unlike later generations, the retirement system proposed by Zhu Youxiao is that military personnel are discharged from the army, and it is all voluntary.

If you want to be a soldier for the rest of your life, you can.

When you talk all the time, you can't move, you can have a variety of options: if you want to be an instructor, you go to the military academy, go home to farm and distribute basic fields and pensions, and if you want more land, you have to exchange military achievements.

I want to go to work as a worker in the subordinate units of various departments, and I also go to school

If you want to be a businessman, you will be compensated, apply for a merchant's license for free, and reduce the tax of the shop......

Anyway, if you are discharged from the army normally, the military department will help you arrange your future life and career.

However, five years later, the Ming Empire is estimated to have stabilized, and it is imperative to retire from the army

It would be more appropriate to replace it with a large number of new recruits.

The two field legions on this side had just left, and the boy guards over there, Hao Shaoqi, took a legion of 90,000 soldiers and directly stationed in the Dongda Camp by the Datong River.

This eastern battalion must have an army to guard the school

On the other side of the river in the east camp is the Royal Military Equipment Department, which is an absolute military forbidden area, and there can be no problems, and there must be troops to guard it.

From now on, around the capital, only the Guards are responsible for the defense of the Beijing Division.

The rest of the legions, under normal circumstances, will not come to the capital to be stationed again, and will be stationed all over the country according to demand.

This afternoon, the garrison corps stationed outside the Guangning Gate in the southwest of the capital will also leave the capital and go to the main military towns directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court to be stationed in various major military towns.

And Hong'er's female soldier corps will also be stationed in the southwest camp of the capital.

In this way, the four corners of the capital, only one northeast battalion, can defend the capital in all directions without dead ends.

However, Zhu Youxiao had already ordered that half a year later, among all the orphans, a Guards Scout Corps would be selected and formed again to live in the Northeast Camp.

And this Northeast camp has also begun to be built.

In the future, the Guards Scouts will become a veritable Guards Group Army, and the total number of troops will be set at 360,000 Rao Group Army, which will never change again.

After a few years, after the combat effectiveness of the various garrison legions has been improved, the five divine beast legions will really go to the five borders of the Ming Empire to carry out continuous exploration battles.

At that time, it could be called a veritable five-party divine beast field army.

However, at that time, it was still far away, and the current territory of the Ming Empire had just begun to cause chaos, and there was a long way to go.

In any case, this is also Zhu Youxiao's plan in his heart, everything is not planned, and it is also very important to do a good job of planning and planning in advance.

Otherwise, when everything comes together, you will be caught off guard and messed up.
