In the conversation with Lu Weihai, Lu Weihai also revealed a news, that is, although the world is in chaos, the era of large-scale chaos has not yet come.

After Xiao Jingxuan's inquiry, Lu Weihai also explained the reason, it turned out that although the gate valves were founded, their luck was not stable.

The Divine Ancestors in the various gate valves originally planned to use the power of luck to break through the realm of heaven and man.

Only when the national fortunes are stable, these people can have a greater confidence to break through the Tongshen, so these people will have a tacit understanding.

After hearing this, Xiao Jingxuan knew in his heart.

It seems that his biological father intends to calm his own heart, so that he can conquer and defend the country with peace of mind.

However, this is also what they want, among all countries, only their own strength is the weakest, and if there is really a chaotic war, they may not be their opponents.

After waving off Lu Weihai, Xiao Jingxuan sat alone in the study, looking at the world.

The location of the Yan State is too awkward, it is located in a remote area, bordering the Zhao, Wei, Wei, and barbarian tribes.

In the final analysis, the barbarians are nomadic people, and they have no fixed residence, even if they conquer the barbarians, it will not be of much benefit to the growth of the strength of the Yan Kingdom.

Zhao and Wei are strong, and with the strength of Yan, they are not their opponents for a while.

As the so-called persimmon should be pinched softly. Present among the nations. Only attacking the country is in the best interests of the Yan country.

Most of the land in the country is suitable for cultivation and has a large population. The military power is not strong.

This is simply a fat meat to give to the mouth, and the more troublesome thing is that the terrain of the country is too complicated.

At the junction with the Yan Kingdom, there are large mountain ranges that completely isolate the two countries.

These mountains are not conducive to the passage of large armies, and it seems that they need to be thought about carefully.

In the afternoon of the same day, Xiao Jingxuan transferred 500 guards with good water quality from the personal guard battalion, and then selected 10,000 soldiers with good water quality from each infantry battalion to form a water division.

Zhang Changning, the general of the pro-guard battalion, was appointed as the chief general of the water division. Ordered him to lead his troops to Luzhou for training.

He ordered the transfer of the adjutant of the workshop, Gu Youzhi, as the supervising envoy, responsible for the construction of a port in Luzhou and the supervision of the construction of sea vessels.

In order to speed up, Xiao Jingxuan also ordered to recruit 3,000 skilled craftsmen from all over the country to go to Luzhou to build ships.

At the same time, Xiao Jingxuan also asked Luzhou and Dazhou to send scouts to reconnoiter the route to Weiguo.

According to the news of the secret guard, although the area of Weiguo is not large, the population of Weiguo has reached almost 600,000 households.

Due to the obstruction of the mountains, there was no war in the defense of the country, so the number of troops was not large, only less than 100,000 standing troops.

And because the party struggle in the court is very strong, the situation in the court is chaotic. The life of the people is also very difficult, and the high taxes make the people miserable.

However, in order to reduce casualties, Xiao Jingxuan still planned to wait for all preparations to be made before launching a war of annihilation against the country.

Xiao Jingxuan ordered Zhao Gang to increase his infiltration of the country. Conduct reconnaissance on the defenses of various cities in the country.

They carried out rebellions in various parts of the country, and incited the poor people of the country to revolt.

After arranging these things, Xiao Jingxuan's affairs were basically busy.

So he began to reform the system of Yan State. Because the People's Republic of China has been founded, Xiao Jingxuan changed the six rooms to six departments. Each department has one scholar and two waiters.

Set up a cabinet, change the left and right long history as the first assistant, the second assistant, and at the same time let the three Hanlin who assisted him be given the title of bachelor at the same time and enter the cabinet office.

In order to better ensure his authority, Xiao Jingxuan separated the Yushitai and Dali Temple, so that these two departments were independent of the cabinet. Report directly to yourself.

In addition, Xiao Jingxuan also gave some high-ranking officials the right to report directly to him.

After completing the reform of the official system, the next thing for Xiao Jingxuan to do was to revise the law.

In order to limit the power of the family gatekeeper, Xiao Jingxuan deliberately revised the law on taxation.

First of all, the gentry paid the grain in one and spread it into the mu. In addition, Xiao Jingxuan did not have the slightest softness for domestic commercial taxes.

Then there was the change of the household registration system, abolishing the so-called slave family and the like, and not allowing the wealthy family to keep slaves.

Finally, in order to ensure the integrity of officials, Xiao Jingxuan stepped up the punishment of corrupt officials.

Xiao Jingxuan stipulated that all corrupt officials who embezzled more than 50 silver coins would have their homes raided, and the men would be assigned to the army and the female dependents would be assigned to the Department of Education.

The implementation of various policies is to break the monopoly of the family.

Of course, in order to get more talent. Xiao Jingxuan not only greatly improved the treatment of officials, but also made the imperial examination a law.

Every other year, each prefecture holds a prefectural examination to confer the status of a student who is admitted to the university.

Every three years, the imperial court will hold an examination to confer the status of a person on the admitted students.

In the same year, a temple examination was held to confer the status of Jinshi to admitted students.

If you raise people, you can become a local official, and if you become a jinshi, you can become an official.

However, all the jinshi generally go to various ministries to observe the government and learn how to handle political affairs, and after that, they will be assigned to various places to hold official positions.

And all central officials must have experience in local positions.

After arranging these things, Xiao Jingxuan completely relaxed, and then, in addition to accompanying Yang Yi every day, Xiao Jingxuan devoted the rest of his time to martial arts.

Time flies, time flies, and time soon came to the spring of the twenty-seventh year of Jia'an.

At this time, Xiao Jingxuan can be said to be complacent. The first is that Yang Yi is pregnant, which is a great joy.

Since there is only one princess in the harem, Yang Yi is the princess, so there is no messy palace fight.

Of course, it doesn't matter if it happens, Yang Yi's martial arts are higher than Xiao Jingxuan's, and ordinary means are that they can't hurt Yang Yi a little.

The second thing is that Xiao Jingxuan has finally broken through to the Divine Realm. Although it was only the early stage of channeling.

But with Xiao Jingxuan's combat power, he can already compete with the masters in the late stage of Tongshen. Even if he is a peak powerhouse, Xiao Jingxuan has a great chance to escape under his hands.

There is a third thing, that is, due to the infiltration of the secret guards, two small-scale peasant uprisings have broken out in the country.

Although in the end, the uprising was put down by the patriotic authorities. However, it also caused more people to be disappointed in the patriotic court.

Xiao Jingxuan believes that as long as it takes a while, then he can easily win the country.

On this day, Xiao Jingxuan took 200 guards and 1,000 tigers and leopards to inspect Luzhou.

Because of the rugged road, Xiao Jingxuan was destined to be unable to send troops from Dazhou to attack the country on a large scale. Attacking the country by sea is the best way for Xiao Jingxuan.

Although there are many fishermen along the coast, the military strength at sea is not well developed.

This time, Xiao Jingxuan planned to personally go to Luzhou to supervise the army and supervise the construction of the warship.

After arriving in Luzhou, Xiao Jingxuan did not go to Luzhou City as soon as possible, but went directly to the port.

After arriving at the port, Xiao Jingxuan was stunned by the scene in front of him. At this time, the weather is still very cold. However, in addition to a large number of craftsmen building warships, there were also a large number of soldiers training on the seashore.

Xiao Jingxuan's arrival soon alarmed Gu Youzhi, the supervising envoy, and Zhang Changning, the chief general of the water division.

The two soon came to Xiao Jingxuan, and after saluting, Xiao Jingxuan visited the entire port under the leadership of the two.

The entire Luzhou Port has been almost completely built. At present, there are five large warships and ten clippers launched. Twenty more large warships are under construction. It is expected that all of them will be in the water in the fall.

Climb aboard the ship and take a tour. Xiao Jingxuan is very satisfied with Gu Youzhi's ability.

These large ships could each carry five hundred soldiers, and were also equipped with large crossbows that could strike mercilessly at approaching enemy ships.

After the visit, Xiao Jingxuan encouraged Gu Youzhi's good life.

After that, after repelling Gu Youzhi, he began to discuss military strategy with Zhang Changning.

Zhang Changning has done a lot of knowledge about the waters around Weiguo. Detailed nautical charts were also drawn.

Seeing that Zhang Changning handed over the chart, Xiao Jingxuan looked very carefully.

After reading it, Xiao Jingxuan pointed to an island not far from Weiguo and said, "Where is this?" ”

"Back to the king, this is a desert island, and there are some prisoners on the island who defend the country. Somewhat similar to the existence of a prison. There are currently about a thousand prisoners and hundreds of guards on the island. ”

"Well, before the fall, take this place, hoard your baggage here and hold on here. This will be an outpost for us to capture the Patriotic Empire. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will hurry up and make arrangements."

"Hmm."

After the inspection was completed, Xiao Jingxuan stayed in Luzhou for another five days, and in addition to inspecting the port, Xiao Jingxuan also inspected Luzhou's offense to the people's livelihood.

Luzhou Taishou Wang Zhiyi is still very good, and the population of Luzhou and the lives of the people are still good.

Xiao Jingxuan kept it in mind that Gu Youzhi and Wang Zhiyi could be of great use in the future.

After the inspection was completed, Xiao Jingxuan hurriedly returned to Yizhou.

During this inspection, Xiao Jingxuan finally knew his shortcomings. Originally, Xiao Jingxuan used Luzhou as a strange soldier, and the direction of the main attack was still placed in Dazhou.

But after this inspection, Xiao Jingxuan found that he could take Luzhou as the main direction of attack.

A powerful navy can be logged in any coastal zone of the country. And as long as the soldiers can adapt to the bumps in the sea, then they can avoid the pain of long journeys.

However, he has already let Lei Ben lead his troops to garrison Dazhou. I'm afraid it's not easy to change it for a while.

After thinking about it again and again, Xiao Jingxuan ordered to take the pro-guard battalion as the backbone, gather 20,000 Tuntian soldiers, and 5,000 tiger and leopard cavalry to form the right army, with Yang Xiong as the marshal of the right army, and go to Luzhou.

After arriving in Luzhou, Zhang Changning was appointed deputy commander of the Right Army. The Right Army and the Naval Army fought in concert and launched an operation against the Patriotic State in the autumn.
