At that time, the Great Dynasty will begin.

A cadre of imperial officials entered the palace hall, divided into civil and military, and according to their status, they all knelt and sat on the left and right sides of His Highness.

A moment later, Li Zheng dressed up and turned out of the back hall.

"The Son of Heaven has arrived!"

"Meet the Son of Heaven!"

The civil and military officials all stood up and bowed.

Li Zheng waved his sleeves: "Excuse me, sit down." ”

Next, the head of each department orally reported to Li Zheng the details of the handling of various important affairs in the past half month.

After the reports of various departments, they discussed and corrected various mistakes and omissions in the previous half month, and took them as a warning.

Next to the Majesty's steps, there is also a special clerk, who writes the content of the court.

The secretary of the Imperial Council of the Origin Empire is equivalent to the Taishi Ling of the former Han Dynasty. In addition to being responsible for records similar to the contents of the court, he was also responsible for compiling historical records. And has the right to enter the relevant information into the number of jù spirit chubby girl.

Now this clerk was recommended by Xun Shuang and was born in the Fufeng Ban family.

Fufeng Banshi, although he was implicated in the case of the former Han general Dou Wu's rebellion, declined, but it was inherited after all. This generation of Ban Jiazi inherited the ambition of his ancestors Ban Biao and Ban Gu and compiled history for the empire.

According to the usual practice, the first half of the meeting is to report the details of the ruling and military affairs, and summarize the omissions. In the second half, various emergencies will be discussed.

By the time the first half was finished, half an hour had passed.

Li Zheng asked the maid to serve tea and fruits to the ministers, and then said: "The matter of the Xianbei people's request to surrender, presumably all the secretaries have already known. I don't care about the specific operation method, the relevant departments are their own, I only look at the results. ”

After a pause, he said: "Xianbei can't withstand the beast disaster, so the whole clan asks to surrender." This also shows that for a period of time in the future, the northwest territory of the empire will no longer be peaceful. I have discussed this with the General Staff and have come up with a solution. ”

"What I want to talk about today is not about these two aspects, but about the general trend of the world."

"The fierce beast spread, and the former Han was the most injured. Fortunately, the rise of my Origin Empire has given me an advantage over the beasts. But the world is big, with many races and kingdoms. They don't have the advantage of my Origin Empire. ”

"With the passage of time, the beasts will gradually multiply and evolve, and presumably in the coming period, they will spread all over the world. In this way, the rest of the kingdoms and races in this world will be wiped out! ”

"What do you have to say about this?"

When His Royal Highness's ministers heard this, they all stared and thought about it.

Xun You thought for a moment, got up and came out of the ranks, and said, "Your Majesty, the world is very big. Although our country is strong, it is not strong enough to interfere with other countries and races. According to the will of the minister, you should go with the flow and ignore it. ”

Li Zheng bowed slightly.

Tian Feng came out of the ranks, but said: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you should have the heart to take care of it." If you help other countries in such a situation, it will be of great benefit to the empire. ”

"No!"

Xi Zhicai got up and retorted: "Your Majesty is in the world, and those kingdoms and races are just blocking. It's better to let the beast handle it, and my empire will clear the way! ”

The remarks of the three were supported by some ministers.

Li Zheng saw it clearly.

Most of those who support Xun Yu are old and heavy-handed.

Those who support Tian Feng are mostly in the prime of life with limited vision.

Those who support Xi Zhicai are mostly young radicals.

Lao Cheng holds weight, and one qiē is mainly stable dìng. Those with limited horizons hold the old view and keep their eyes on the one-third of an acre of land in front of them. Young radicals, on the other hand, are more eager to make a difference.

Li Zheng bowed slightly, waved his hand, asked a few people to sit down, and said, "All the secretaries have their own reasons, but I have other ideas here." ”

After a pause, he glanced around and said, "The world, I can do whatever I want!" As Xi Qing said, I aspire to the world, and these countries and races are obstacles. I'm not worried that my army won't be able to defeat them, but I'm just worried that it's hard to get along with the differences in race, culture, beliefs, customs, language, and so on. This point, presumably, there is no way for the secretaries to solve it well. ”

Hearing this, all the ministers bowed slightly.

"One empire does not have the strength to interfere with other regions now, and the other does not have the obligation to help them. So I'm more inclined to what Xi Qing said, let the fierce beast be the precursor, and help us solve this problem, and I don't have to bear the charge of killing too much in the future. ”

Li Zheng's words were very direct. Although all the ministers knew Li Zheng's character, it was still difficult to adapt.

The clerk on the side stopped his pen and looked at Li Zheng.

Li Zheng waved his hand and said, "Write truthfully." ”

The clerk nodded.

"But since these kingdoms and races have appeared in this world and have their own forces, then they have their superiority. For example, in terms of culture, such as in terms of technology. Maybe it's inferior to the Empire in some ways, but maybe it's not worse than the Empire in some ways. So what I mean is, before the beasts destroy these kingdoms and races, can we obtain these achievements of civilization that are very different from our Chinese nation? ”

"If these achievements of civilization are integrated into the civilization of the empire, can it promote the development of the empire? The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade, although they cannot be copied, but there are also references. ”

"Your Majesty is far-sighted!"

Minister of Education Xun Shuang got up slowly, bowed slightly, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, maybe you can take advantage of the raging beast disasters in some countries to exchange some materials for these achievements." ”

Li Zheng smiled and nodded: "Ciming is reasonable. ”

After some discussion, I finally came up with a decision.

First of all, it is necessary to closely monitor the country where the beast plague has broken out. When the situation is critical, he will send the Golden Winged Tiger to ride there and exchange some materials for the fruits of his civilization.

Secondly, in addition to the written achievements, there are also related scholars, and some are also needed. After all, different countries do not understand the language and language, and if there are scholars, it will be much more convenient.

After the end of the court, Li Zheng instructed the little chubby girl to pay attention to the situation of the Kushan Empire and prepare to seize the fruits of its civilization

In the second year of the early Yuan Dynasty, on the first day of the winter month, the emperor Xun Ying gave birth to the first prince for Li Zheng, the son of heaven.

This is the mark that Li Zheng really left when he came to this era. It is also this child who makes Li Zheng and this era really merge together!

Li Zheng named it 'Ji', and his heart was full of expectations.

Grasshopper, the country too!

Li Zheng hopes that his first son can become a strong man who shoulders the heavy responsibility of the country and the nation!

The birth of Wang Ziji made all the civil and military officials breathe a sigh of relief, and they became more stable and energetic for a while. It also made the people under his rule rejoice and pray for it.

In the second year of junior high school, the imperial concubine Cai Yan gave birth to the first princess for the Son of Heaven!

The Son of Heaven loved it very much and named it 'Jin'.

Jin, Meiyu also. Li Zheng hopes that his first daughter can be as pure and immaculate as Meiyu.

has a son and daughter, Li Zheng is happy all day long, and he praises how likable these two children are, which makes Xun You and others a little helpless.

And most of the time, Li Zheng used it to accompany Xun Ying and Zhaoji, and accompany his son and daughter, which really had a kind of home warmth.

This made the other concubines secretly jealous, but they were also pregnant one after another, and Li Zheng naturally would not ignore them

By the time of the second year of the early Yuan Dynasty, the entire Hebei region had been recovered.

Jizhou and Youzhou were all included in the empire. The military front, advancing eastward all the way to the coast. Advance south to the banks of the Great River.

The war lasted for nearly a year, and the casualties among the soldiers were very few. Except for the sudden attack of a fierce beast during the march, or the counterattack and death when chasing the fierce beast, there were no casualties on the real frontal battlefield.

The army takes the golden war cavalry as the forerunner, the rest of the war cavalry as the edge, and the infantry army as the auxiliary, step by step, steady and steady, which can be described as rich results.

In addition to recovering the territory of the two states, he also captured hundreds of evolutionary beasts for Li Zheng. Now these fierce beasts are all raised in the grassland, and when the time comes, they will prepare to synthesize a third-order war horse!

This strategic action was the most difficult in the early stage, and even repetitive. It wasn't until the second-order warhorse was put into the battlefield that it was improved. Later, it became more and more smooth.

Many fierce beasts are afraid of the might of the war horse, and they rush to dodge.

In the end, the army often got only an empty city, and the beast fled early.

Although the fierce beast is violent, it also knows how to seek good fortune and avoid evil. It's a biological instinct.

Since they couldn't stop the army of the Origin Empire, these fierce beasts, especially the evolutionary fierce beasts, avoided them early.

They either retreated to the sea, or moved north or south. So that the entire territory of Jizhou and Youzhou has become stable.

The Hebei region was established, and the next military action of the empire would be concentrated in the Central Plains.

However, the coastal areas of Hebei and the northeastern frontier of Liaoning cannot be left unguarded. Therefore, on these two fronts, some troops must be stationed.

So, Li Zheng ordered the expansion of the naval army.

In order to defend against the fierce beasts in the sea, the navy is an indispensable force. Originally, the total number of imperial naval troops was 60,000, and the Great River Basin was 30,000, which was commanded by Zhang Qi. There are 30,000 in the Great River Basin, which is under the command of Ganning.

At present, to defend the entire coastline of Hebei, 30,000 naval troops are far from enough.

The amount of the conscription of the navy was set at 100,000. Zhang Qi's subordinate recruited 50,000 troops, a total of 80,000 naval troops, which should be able to form a solid maritime defense line.

In addition, the Naval Equipment Division of the Imperial Research Institute has also developed larger ships. Now it has been put into production, and it will soon be able to equip the naval army.

However, the next strategy for the Central Plains region must not be impatient.

It is still necessary to wait until Hebei is completely stabilized before the next strategic action can begin.

At the very least, the defense line of the two states and the defense line of the northern part of Youzhou must be completely stable to ensure that there will be no recurrence before the next move can be carried out with confidence.

Second, the relocation and resettlement of people in the border areas of the northwest region is also in progress. The selection and assessment of officials in the two prefectures is also in full swing.

So for the time being, in terms of military affairs, except for the southwest line of Liangzhou, the rest of the fronts have been pressed. (To be continued.) )
