His Majesty the Emperor said: "I think there is one thing that must be started immediately, and that is the expansion of the imperial army. ”

Because of the special national conditions, the number of troops in the empire is not large, and the nature is also very simple, really speaking, there are only local armies.

The Adjudicator Army is temporary, formed when needed, and disbanded after the event.

The Ministry of War is responsible for the basic training and daily training of new recruits, as well as the support of various ordnance logistics, and is under the leadership of the Imperial Court represented by the Prime Minister and the Military Department represented by General Zhu Guoda.

After the training of new recruits is completed, they will be handed over to the military department to arrange specific work such as duty, operations, and defense.

There are ten provinces in the empire, each of which has a governor general, and Wei generals ranging from three to five to the command, and governs the military power of all the states and prefectures within it, and they are all direct subordinates of the general of the Zhu State.

The number of local armies in each province is very small compared to the vast land area, not to mention the number of troops of those hegemonic powers that occupy more than one road, not only is the number far superior, but also has local armies, border armies, field armies, and so on.

The military department also does not force the number of imperial troops, small but precise, and the overall combat power of the imperial army is not slightly weaker than those powerful overlords. The strength of the soldiers is definitely the best in the Tian Yuan Realm, and although there is no battle of conquest, it does not mean that there are fewer bloody battles.

Every time a combined adjudicator army is formed, the Imperial soldiers occupy more than half of the seats. And every dispatch is a battle to destroy the country, and naturally the other party cannot be expected to be killed, which also brings a lot of casualties to the ruling army, but it is also a bloody experience.

There is a special person to record the merits of each soldier, and when he retires, it will be converted into various rewards that not only benefit himself, but also his future generations. If you have made outstanding contributions, you can be knighted or even crowned a country!

For example, the military exploits of the life of Wei Chiba, the general of the above pillar country, are enough to divide a country with five counties. Knighthood and feudalism, only the officers and soldiers in the army have this opportunity, and civilian officials do not have this opportunity.

When it comes to expanding the imperial army, the happiest is of course Wei Chiba.

Qin Mu frowned and said, "Will this cause misunderstanding and vigilance among the nations?"

His Majesty the Emperor briefly described the situation of the disaster of wild beasts and spirit beasts that would become more and more intense, and said:

"This will be a great change that will affect the entire Tianyuan Realm, the kingdoms of the heavens, especially those weak and small countries, will suffer heavy losses if they are not prepared, which is a great drain on the vitality of the entire civilization, I think Qin Xiang can come forward to officially inform the countries of this matter, so that they can prepare early.

In addition, as the world becomes extremely active, various natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides will also occur frequently, and we can hide the real reasons, but these data observed by Qin Tianjian can be revealed. Let them guess for themselves.

Against this background, it is a matter of course and natural for us to expand our armed forces. ”

Qin Mu nodded, feeling that it was so feasible.

"In addition, as you can see, the Ruling Army is being dispatched more and more frequently, and it may not be possible to temporarily form and disband it as before. Do you think it's feasible to turn it into a permanent force and station it near the Shendu, and to increase its size?"

Yu Chiba preemptively said: "Why is it not feasible, I can't ask for it." In the past, because the Ruling Army was the pinnacle of the Tianyuan Realm, and all kinds of equipment were also the top, it had caused a lot of empty military salaries, so it generally did not exceed the scale of 10,000 people.

The soldiers of our empire account for more than half of the quota, and the other hegemonic powers, including the four imperial dynasties, divide the remaining half, which is not enough at all, and many countries will not be able to go up this time and will have to wait for the next time or even the next opportunity.

As long as we show the slightest hint of expanding the Ruling Army or even turning it into a permanent force, they will be even more active in promoting this matter than we are!"

His Majesty the Emperor nodded, and those countries were not afraid that their soldiers would be raised by the empire.

Because this quota belongs to these countries, they have always regarded the Adjudicator Army as the world's top martial arts school, and they can also participate in many battles to destroy the country, and obtain the spoils corresponding to the number of battles. Every once in a while, I will rotate a batch, who will be afraid that the empire will invite people to buy people's hearts.

The empire occupies more than half of the quota in the adjudicator army, and the same proportion is in the distribution of the spoils of war, not only because of the name of a "suzerain", but also because it bears all the expenses, equipment, equipment, and so on of the adjudicator army.

The soldiers of other countries only need to come empty-handed, and return with the spoils of war and the experience and knowledge of the brain. There will also be a large pension for those who die in battle.

Qin Xiang nodded in agreement, and just said: "But in this way, the military expenditure in the future will be too large, more than several times that of the previous one." ”

His Majesty the Emperor and Wei Chiba glanced at each other and kept silent, and the problems were all habitual.

The financial situation of the Inner Government, not to mention the military spending that is many times higher than the current one, can be squeezed out even if it is dozens of times more, first, the number of imperial troops is already very low, and the earning power of the Inner Government is not an ordinary horror.

The court was very insidious, the household department planned all kinds of places for its own money early every year, and before the year or two months had passed, there was a financial crisis on its ledger.

Once encountering an unplanned situation, such as disaster relief, they will reach out to the money bags of the inner government and beg for it, and there are other big projects and projects, and the first thing is to ask the inner government for money, which is going to be convenient, so that now using the money of the inner government to expand the army is like moving the cheese of the imperial court.

His Majesty the Emperor said, "I have some other ideas, you can consider whether it is feasible or not, and some of them still need the cooperation of the Holy Church." ”

His Majesty the Emperor was then in charge of the brainstorm, and the other three were in charge of analyzing the concrete feasibility and discussing a number of plans that would have far-reaching implications in the future.

In their discussions, they just used "plan one", "plan two", "plan three", ...... Simply call it.

After a deep conversation, everyone dispersed late at night.

The Great Elder Linghu floated away alone, and Qin Xiang and General Wei Chi left hand in hand.

Before parting, Yu Chiba smiled and said: "Our majesty is really not simple, he used to be simple." ”

Qin Mu didn't speak, but he walked slowly alone, but he felt the same way.

He knew that what Yu Chiba was talking about was not the great chance that His Majesty the Emperor suddenly obtained, but his mind and courage to think about things.

In the past, I saw that he didn't ask about state affairs and did some ridiculous things all day long, and he gave many reasons in his heart, "This guy is hibernating" is the most important one, but now he suddenly found out that where people are playing dormant, they really don't take the dish they are guarding tightly in their eyes.

After decades of monopoly of power and arbitrariness, this realization made him a little disappointed.

But soon, he came out of this senseless depression, a new world was waiting, how could he have a trace of slackness and decadence!
