Xiao Xuan was glad that this army was established through such a political selection method, rather than the so-called modern army established in the traditional model. But now, in order to pursue the maximum use of national strength, he still has to devote all his efforts to build a top-notch cold weapon unit in this era that does not seem to be so in line with the rhythm of the times.

According to some of the battle examples that Xiao Xuan had learned in his previous life and a lot of battle examples of the volunteer troops in this life, it is estimated that those teams that can not only effectively use the strong bow with one stone and two or three fights, but also almost reach the top level in strength and archery skills, face the ancient standard of cavalry, which is still decent, and the main force has almost one as ten combat effectiveness. Examples of warfare at the level of several hundred or tens of thousands have created miracles of tens to hundreds of enemies. The combat effectiveness of the core and main force of the 20,000 or 30,000 troops is at least not inferior to that of any imperial power group that has ever existed in ancient history.

This is not a good thing for an absolute monarchy, and it is clear that this kind of force, which can easily be separated from valuable equipment and easily form a fighting force even after retirement, is a potential destabilizing factor.

Therefore, when the Spring Festival was approaching, Xiao Xuan did not hesitate to conduct a deduction called "Confrontation of Arms" again, of course, assuming that the archers in the core main force of the volunteer army rebelled, and the result also made Xiao Xuan's heart relax a little. In this era, the top elite soldiers created with sufficient material training conditions cannot shake the medium and heavy artillery units of the same size in the defensive operations of artillery units with calibrated distance combat occasions. Of course, the premise is that you have gunpowder of decent quality, and you are relatively strong in the use of archery. Athletic field warfare or other combat situations, of course, is a different matter.

The only thing that makes Xiao Xuan happy is that although the new political ideology has begun to fade in the ranks of the revolutionary army and the main force of the volunteer army, its influence is still there, and if the rebels betray these for their own interests, there is no doubt that they will make a lot of discounts in terms of courage and actual combat performance, and it will no longer be a big problem.

It seems that this incident has brought a lot of rumors, so from the legal hall system to the foreign affairs system, there have been one after another complaints about the violation of discipline by volunteer troops who went out to fight against the rebellion.

Xiao Xuan did not have much concern about this, on the one hand, he still carried out a purge of violations of discipline and even crimes in the process of quelling the rebellion, and on the other hand, he unexpectedly introduced another policy: in view of the fact that many of the core military meritorious groups of the expeditionary force made new contributions in the process of counterinsurgency, a total of more than 10,000 officers and soldiers above the first class meritorious service and their related family members were also allowed to be stationed in the heroic outer city.

In addition, although the new policy nominally prohibits concubinage and slavery, it allows the existence of adopted sons and daughters, and affirms that children born out of wedlock also have equal rights to inherit property, and that the head of the household has full testamentary power over personal property. In addition, it is recognized that all adult groups have property rights that are private to individuals. Further dismantle the family's function as a "public commune".

These statutory policies have also caused an uproar in many places because of the effectiveness of the whistleblowing rule, but because of the aftermath of the counterinsurgency, not many people dare to make waves at this time. Around the right of inheritance and property law, many places in China and abroad have fallen into crisis and turmoil around the Spring Festival in the ninth year of Chongzhen. The entire regime was still in turmoil and unrest around the Spring Festival in the ninth year of Chongzhen.

Unlike the uneasiness of the outside world, Xiao Xuan did not plan to let this tense atmosphere affect the palace, and although he did not hold a big celebration banquet again on Chinese New Year's Eve and personally attended and organized activities, he also arranged many wedding banquets and even celebrations for returning officers.

Central College is the place where Xiao Xuan attaches the most importance to the days when the Spring Festival is approaching, and he plays with many core craftsmen and even children on campus. This made the guards in charge of security really bother and put a lot of effort into it. According to the opinion of the dark guards, even if it is in the jade pool or the small labyrinth, it is much safer than in this kind of place.

After his return, he was busy in many fields, which also made Xiao Xuan feel the benefits brought by the new imperial power model at this time, the Son of Heaven did not need to organize a group of cronies to deal with most of the internal and external newspapers, and a large part of the local affairs and supervision activities were taken care of by the Fatang system, and even the private newspapers and magazines in various places that had few taboos, if not considering the military power status and even the control of the intelligence field and the more critical arsenal, treasury, and core military industry. After years of violent turmoil and change, the entire dynasty began to gradually take on some shadow of a constitutional monarchy.

After the new order began to be put together, everything began to move forward in its own way, although it still seemed to be a little faltering at this time, but it began to have the shadow of a new society.

In fact, it was at this time that Xiao Xuan realized how difficult it was to reform society, if it weren't for the risk of almost a revolution, he experienced two or three civil strife wars in a row. Just fighting the old people within the rules and settling political accounts, even if it takes two long reigns of a monarch for a hundred years, it may not be possible to achieve even the level of Peter the Great. After all, in the vicinity of China, there is no competition like the neighboring places in the core of Europe.

Of course, Xiao Xuan at this time also suddenly had a feeling that even at this time, the turbulent period brought about by the great changes in the whole world had not really ended. As Xiao Xuan expected, the Qianli urgent document was delivered to the palace on the fifth day of the first month of the ninth year of Chongzhen, which made Xiao Xuan feel that the area of Europe that had just been conquered at this time was not yet peaceful. Although relying on the advantage of surprise attacks, the western expeditionary troops conquered almost all of Taixi at the cost of only about 100,000 people, and plundered many craftsmen in key fields, but relying on the secret preparations of the fugitives before the war for more than a year, from France to the German states and even the whole of Eastern Europe, there were one after another. Although the 150,000 security forces remaining in the hinterland of thousands of miles from London to Moscow have been largely cavalryized, they are still facing a situation where they are overstretched in terms of strength.
