Two months later, in Beiping City, in the Qinzheng Hall of Xiyuan, Yang Lin listened to the reports of relevant personnel, and Prime Minister Liu Yong also sat aside and listened carefully. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Your Majesty, the Great Guang Army has occupied the entire small countries in Southeast Asia, and with almost no effort, it has successively taken Annam, Nanzhang, Cambodia, Siam and Burma, with 300,000 troops."

"Moreover, the king of Siam organized little effective resistance and directly led his troops to surrender."

Yang Lin was very excited, almost uncontrollable with excitement, and when he heard such a report, he immediately asked: "By the way, how did the 300,000 multinational troops that were recruited deal with it?" Where are you stationed now? ”

"Emperor Qi, the 300,000 troops were divided into three parts, and 100,000 were sent to Lanfang Province and Sulu Province and Nanhai Zhudao to assist in the defense with the local Daguang army, mixing and matching. One hundred thousand were mixed into the vast army and stationed in those small countries. The last 100,000 soldiers, together with the 100,000 large army, were transferred to Tibet and obeyed the arrangement of Commander Huo. ”

However, hearing this, Yang Lin's brows furrowed for no reason, and he suddenly asked, "Oh~?" In this way, if you put it this way, those small countries that have just been conquered only have 40,000 large troops stationed, can such a small number of troops be able to control the 100,000 multinational troops? Will you be able to take control of those new territories? ”

The General Staff of the Central Military Commission is responsible for the return, and they have an extremely good understanding of the military deployment of the Great Guangzhou Dynasty, and they will have some understanding of everything about the army of the Great Guangzhou Dynasty, not to mention the conscription and military service.

"Your Majesty, the Military Commission has already thought about this problem and has taken corresponding countermeasures, whether it is the 100,000 newly formed troops in Sulu Province, Lanfang Province, and Nanhai Zhudao, or the 100,000 soldiers who remained in the newly occupied areas, or the 100,000 soldiers from a small country who have been transferred to Tibet, they are not purely recruited soldiers from a certain country."

"After completely occupying the small countries in Southeast Asia, Division Commander Shi Mingzhishi, Division Commander Zhang Baozhang, and Brigade Commander Sun Yuting Sun immediately completely disrupted the 300,000 newly recruited soldiers from foreign countries and established a new unit number.

"Moreover, the supreme commander of each unit is either a soldier of our Daguang Dynasty, such as the commander of a division and brigade, he must be a general of the Daguang Army, and the commander of a regiment, battalion and company is also a general of the Daguang Army even if he is not a general of the Daguang Army."

"Not only that, each unit must have a platoon unit that can speak Chinese to popularize the Chinese language proficiency of the whole army."

Yang Lin was still not very satisfied, his brows furrowed slightly, and he interrupted the report of the chief of the general staff: "Is this all?" I see what you mean, because of the language barrier, those newly recruited 100,000 troops will not make trouble, mutiny, or anything like that in the new territory they have just occupied. However, this is not a long-term solution, and it can only be temporarily alleviated, and it still cannot solve the problem of insufficient troops stationed in the newly occupied areas. ”

The General Staff Officer was secretly wiping cold sweat, he heard what Yang Lin meant, said 1,000, said 10,000, the garrison of those newly occupied small countries in Annan is too small, 40,000 people is simply pitiful, thinking of this, he hurriedly explained.

"Your Majesty, there are not only 40,000 troops stationed in Annam and other countries, but also recruits who began to serve last year and in the spring of this year, a total of 150,000. Although these people are all new recruits and have little actual combat experience. However, with the 40,000 battle-hardened troops, they were completely able to control the situation on the ground. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Lin showed a relaxed look, nodded slightly, and continued: "This arrangement is good, very forward-looking, not only to increase the garrison of the Great Guangzhou Dynasty in Southeast Asia, but also to speed up the popularization of the Chinese language..."

Suddenly, Yang Lin's tone was paused, and he suddenly said: "However, this is far from enough, the soldiers who serve normally every year in the country will shift the location of their service, and focus on Southeast Asia, and strive to have 200,000 permanent troops in the Guangzhou army within two years." ”

"Not only that, but the Thundering Navy will regularly dock at the waterfront docks in the newly occupied territories to deter by force. In addition, the 100,000 foreign soldiers who were recruited were completely dispersed, divided into soft cadre units, mixed into the large army, and stationed sporadically in various parts of Southeast Asia. Moreover, while conducting military training for them, it is also necessary to strengthen Chinese language training, and strive to be able to understand Chinese within half a year, speak Chinese, and write within a year. ”

Seeing that the emperor's expression was much more relaxed, the chief of the general staff suddenly felt relieved, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, our military commission has formulated a reward and promotion system, as long as those newly recruited soldiers understand Chinese, they will enjoy the same treatment as the large army, and only those who can speak Chinese can be promoted and awarded higher military ranks." ”

Hearing this, Yang Lin understood that his worries were superfluous, and the Military Commission had long thought of the shortage of garrisons in Southeast Asia, otherwise, there would not be such a detailed and specific reward and promotion system.

Yang Lin smiled a little embarrassedly, and then changed the topic: "By the way, with 100,000 troops and 100,000 newly recruited foreign troops, how is the situation in Tibet?" Those leaders in Tibet are not honest, do they implement the policies of the imperial court to benefit the people? ”

The general staff no longer had the nervousness at the beginning, his expression was very calm, it seemed that he knew the military of Tibet very well, and as soon as Yang Lin's words ended, he opened his mouth and said: "Emperor Qiqi, at the beginning, there were several leaders who were still unwilling to implement the imperial decree and wanted to make trouble. As a result, Commander Huo directly sent troops to suppress it, and in just two days, he swept through the territory of those leaders. ”

Subsequently, Commander Huo divided the 200,000 troops into Tibet into ten parts, presenting a grid garrison, which was stationed in various places in Tibet, dividing the whole Tibet into several modules. swept away the forces of several leaders, and played a great role in killing chickens and monkeys. ”

"At this time, Commander Huo is disarming Tibet and taking it into the possession of the imperial court, and at the same time, he is also stripping the trumpet***** and within a month, the imperial court will be able to truly and completely control Tibet."

Yang Lin became excited again, his mood was surging, the liberation of millions of serfs not only strengthened the control of the Great Guang Dynasty over Tibet, but also expanded the Great Guangzhou Army again, increasing the total strength of the Great Guang Dynasty!

At this moment, Yang Lin couldn't help but secretly estimate that the total strength of the current Daguang Army was at least about 1.5 million. Moreover, it is also showing an upward trend.

Solving the Tibet problem is equivalent to revitalizing the entire frontier of the Great Guangzhou Dynasty, and if things go well, all the border problems of the Great Guangzhou Dynasty will be resolved this year. After packing up the various head tribes in Tibet, the next step is to integrate the troops, march to the northwest, completely solve the Dzungar in Xinjiang, and finally the Mongolian tribes in Inner Mongolia.

Originally, Yang Lin wanted to wait until the national economy in Guannai was fully restored and the population had soared, and then he would use iron-fisted means to implement the policies of the Great Guangzhou Dynasty to benefit the country and the people in these places.

In the past, the three regions were only nominally owned by the Great Guangzhou Dynasty, and the imperial court had little control over Tibet, Xinjiang, and Inner Mongolia. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Yang Lin did not dare to use force in three places. After all, no matter what, after the three major battles, there will inevitably be countless casualties, which will increase the hatred of the people in the three places against the Han people.

Moreover, there is also the most critical point, even if the three places are taken by force, but there is no certain number of troops stationed in the three places, there is equal to nothing. Otherwise, the military strength stationed in the three places will account for half of the entire Daguang army, so what will happen to the city defense in other places?

Now it's different, I didn't expect the 140,000 troops to easily take over the entire Southeast Asia, and there were 300,000 more soldiers out of thin air, which increased the bargaining chips for Yang Lin to solve the problems in the three places.

These thoughts flashed quickly in Yang Lin's mind, his eyes were bright, fleeting, and returned to normal, deep and dark, and he set his eyes on Liu Yong's body: "Liu Yong, whether it is a new territory in Southeast Asia or Tibet, although the imperial court has strong military control in these places, the imperial court's policy must also keep up, and the local people must feel the good of the Great Guang Dynasty and the importance of the imperial court to them." ”

At this time, Liu Yonggang wanted to say something, but Yang Linhu's face showed a solemn expression, and he said in a deep voice: "Especially in Tibet, the policies of the imperial court must keep up quickly, as far as I know, the local people are still serfs, and the local people are miserable, and they have been oppressed and exploited by the Trumpet Sect and the head people for a long time. They had little freedom to speak of, let alone any security guarantees, and more and more free people became serfs. ”

"The local people are burdened with heavy burdens, and they owe money to the Trumpet Sect and the leaders, even if they don't eat or drink for generations, they can't pay it back. And, the most speechless thing is that these debts are still being repaid more and more. ”

Of course, Liu Yong knew what Yang Lin said, and in the former Qing Dynasty, this problem in Tibet was very serious. Since the Qing court implemented a policy of poverty in Tibet, the people of the lower classes of the bitter cold area firmly controlled the Trumpet Sect and the headmen, which was equivalent to firmly controlling Tibet.

In a trance, Liu Yong thought a lot, thought of the content of those policies that benefited the people, and understood why the emperor attacked Tibet first? It's not just Tibet that is close to Burma, and the newly incorporated troops can go straight in. It is also because once the imperial court's policy of benefiting the people is implemented, the three places will have the greatest effect on Tibet!

It is not difficult to imagine that the common people, who have been serfs all their lives, have no guarantee of life and no freedom, and they have lived for others all their lives, and they may die of hunger and cold at any time. However, once these people were free, their lives were protected by the imperial court, and they had land, they could live for themselves. Then, the status of the Great Guang Dynasty in their hearts will be comparable to that of their parents, with the grace of recreation.

As long as the millions of serfs turn over and stand up, they will swear allegiance to the Great Guang Dynasty, the benefactor who gave them hope in life.

After thinking about it, Liu Yong became excited, and immediately said excitedly: "Yes, Your Majesty, Wechen will definitely select the most capable officials to go to Tibet and Southeast Asia to thoroughly implement the imperial court's policy of benefiting the people, without any discount!" ”
