Since then, the Ming Kingdom has begun to clean up the officialdom.

The "Qing Official Movement" with great momentum was blown again, and this time it was larger in scale and more extensive, and all the states and prefectures within the territory of the Ming Kingdom were involved except for the eight vassal states of Dongying, Goryeo, Zhubu, Tubo, Dali, Nuzhi, Dilie, and Khitan.

Baili Wuji used this to wash away the various forces that the Ming Kingdom had inevitably absorbed over the years because of the expansion of its territory.

The campaign took almost two years from start to finish.

At least tens of thousands of officials were dismissed, tens of thousands of officials were exiled, no less than 30,000 officials were transferred to official positions in the two feudal states of Dali and Zhubu, and at least 3,000 officials were executed for unknown charges.

At the end of the fifteenth year of the liberation, after the end of the "Qing Official Movement", Baili Wuji rectified the official system in the Ming court and balanced the power control of various regions and factions.

Then, Baili Wuji swept away the generals of the Ming army with the momentum of thunder, and all the commanders made the above military positions a virtual title, and the senior generals, including the commanders, were all awarded military ranks in the way of remote leadership and stayed in the capital.

In other words, among the 400,000 troops stationed in various localities and the 400,000 new troops, the supreme commander who really controls the troops is only the commander, and the troops under his command do not exceed 6,000 at most.

The generals above the commander all stayed in the capital and only nominally commanded the army.

In addition, Baili Wuji formulated a law, with the garrison and the new army in their respective systems, and rotated the commanders of each department every three years to prevent the formation of small hills.

In the spring of the sixteenth year of the liberation, the Ming Kingdom passed through two huge earthquakes in civil and military affairs. The beginning entered a new page.

In May, Baili Wuji reduced the 80,000 Imperial Forest Army to 60,000, and was still divided into four armies and stationed on the four sides of Jinling Mansion.

Led by Baili Yi, 60,000 Imperial Forest Army. And Bailikang argued with Baili Wuji for a whole night about unloading his armor and returning to the field, but he still couldn't resist Baili Wuji.

The next day, Bai Likang was canonized as the first commander of the Ming State Staff Council, controlling the 400,000 new troops of the Ming State.

Regardless of Sun Shixu's opposition, Baili Wuji incorporated him into the civil official system of the imperial court, replaced his father Sun Guangxian's original official position, and became one of the prime ministers of the Ming Kingdom.

June. Baili Wuji ordered the capital to be moved to Kaifeng, and Jinling Mansion was reduced to the accompanying capital. Wang Pu was promoted to the prime minister of the Ming Kingdom, so the three prime ministers of the Ming Kingdom were Xu Shiming, Sun Shixu, and Wang Pu. Lay the groundwork for the transfer of old and new powers in advance.

And Baili Wuji did not go to Kaifeng, for Baili Wuji, Kaifeng Mansion is no longer the end of the second half of his life, and Baili Wuji began to completely place the internal affairs of the Ming Kingdom under the Zhongshu Province. And the military power of the garrisons in various places was put into the Zhongshu Province. The reason why the military power of the Forces nouvelles has not yet been completely placed in the General Staff. is because in the vision of Baili Wuji, there is another place that makes him linger, and that is Luzon.

Only by occupying Luzon and establishing supply ports could the Ming kingdom's ocean-going trade be safer and smoother.

The central court of the Ming State moved to Kaifeng Prefecture, and the power organ composed of the three ministers of the Ming State, Zhongshu Province, would henceforth have full authority to handle the affairs of the Ming State.

Baili Wuji is still the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, but in his heart, soon he will no longer be the emperor of the Ming Kingdom. Baili Wuji didn't want to spend half his life unifying the world, and he was still "trapped" in that imperial city.

He still has a lot of things he wants to do.

Such as. The green shadow in his heart, which land of the earth he lives in, can make an emperor like Baili Wuji unable to find it.

For example, he led Peng Xiao's ocean-going fleet to explore the new continent that had not yet been visited, and it was said that the continent was full of gold.

For example, go to the South Pole to see the honest, generous, and very cute penguins, or go to the North Pole to hunt a few polar bears.

……。

In August, after the end of the two-year purge of the Ming civil and military forces, Baili Wuji issued an order to order Baili Kang to dispatch 30,000 new troops to march into Luzon Island with the assistance of Peng Xiao's sailors.

Bai Likang personally took command, but did not go out with the army, but sat in the Xingwang Mansion, and the real leader of the troops was General Zhengsanpin Zhaoyong and Ding Sijing, the commander of the First Army of the New Army.

Leaving him behind when he went to Dali had already made Ding Sijin very depressed, and this time, he led the troops alone to go on the expedition, which was also a fulfillment of his wish.

Ding Sijin led his army to march southeast from Xingwangfu on the ships of Peng Xiaoshui's division, preparing to land on Luzon from the north, east, and west according to the route indicated by Bailikang, and then sweep south.

According to Baranga, Luzon was occupied by a group of natives, said to be a group of blacks, who called the settlements they established called Barangay, each of which consisted of 30 to 100 households, ranging in number, and its leader was called Datu or Raja, and Barangai society consisted of three basic classes: nobles, freemen, and slaves.

And between the various barangai, they do not belong to each other, which is a bit of a primitive tribe.

Ding Sijin didn't take these to heart, with the support of eight Ming giant gunboats, 30,000 new troops were enough to wipe out all the enemies who dared to block in front of him.

In Ding Sijing's heart, how could these 30,000 tiger and wolf divisions who had experienced the Ming Liao and Ming Blockade wars be able to withstand such a group of barbarians? At the moment, he was looking at the wind from the bow of the ship, and he had a sense of drawing his sword to ask the sky and seeking defeat alone.

Before coming, Baili Wuji told him that Luzon was just a land of projectiles, and the real intention of occupying it was to establish supply ports and military ports to facilitate the Ming trade fleet and Peng Xiao's sailors to sail westward in the future. For other matters, Ding Sijin can decide on his own and does not need to report for instructions.

Ding Sijin believes that since it is a cheap act, it can be understood that he can do whatever he wants, and as long as he finally occupies Luzon, he will be considered to have successfully completed the task.

Therefore, the planned method of a fierce god like Ding Sijin is to iron out all the panting creatures in this projectile land, for Ding Sijing, people, there are many such creatures in the Ming Kingdom, and it is a big deal to migrate hundreds of thousands of them from the Ming Kingdom.

This is not only convenient to manage, but also does not need to worry about the loyalty of the people, and is more suitable for governance.

But Ding Sijin did not expect that this expedition would not be able to realize his dream of being a "butcher".

……。

At this time, Luzon Island had close trade contacts with the state capital along the coastline of the Ming Kingdom, and since the Ming Kingdom vigorously developed the shipbuilding industry, the southern ports such as Qiongzhou Port, Xingwangfu, and Changle Mansion all had private trade fleets to and from Luzon.

At this time, Luzon was different from Luzon when Bailikang came, because now Luzon has established a small country called "Ma Yi Kingdom".

It was a coalition of more than 100 barangues in Luzon. (To be continued......)
