Chapter 13 This is the island chain
Jinshan City.
Recruiting Office.
A sea of people.
The current Ming Dynasty is an era of shining military uniforms.
There is absolutely no such thing as "a good man is not a soldier, and a good iron is not a nail".
Therefore.
When it was rumored that the King of Qin was going to recruit 50,000 cavalry.
There are many heroes from the Jinshan Metropolitan Protectorate, and even the California Metropolitan Protectorate in the south, who have come to enlist in the army.
Soldiers.
There is no shortage in this day and age.
So almost in a very short period of time.
Zhu Yixin recruited tens of thousands of people in the assessment, and the 50,000 posts can be recruited in as many months as possible.
Therefore, Zhu Yixin is in a good mood now.
Naturally, he also had the intention to confess to the two Deng Tingzhen and Lin Zexu, who had been a little sad since Zhu Yixin came to Jinshan.
"Deng Dudu, Lin Dudu, you don't have to worry so much." γ
Zhu Yixin smiled slightly.
"Although this king is nominally the commander of the whole army in North America. But the real big fight I don't expect it to start until this fall, so . My old bean will definitely send a staff group, and then assign me a chief of staff or something, I guess it's either Chen Dewang or Yang Yuchun, or Yang Fang. β
Of course Zhu Yixin knows.
It is unlikely that Emperor Zhu will hand over hundreds of thousands of troops to him, a hairy boy.
What he came to North America to do was to pull up the army.
The credit for pulling up the army is his, and no one else can touch it.
And the future wars.
There must be a large staff group to do it.
And Zhu Yixin's idea was actually supported by Emperor Zhu.
In his future role, he will be the commander of the cavalry corps.
As for the infantry.
That's none of his business.
So the first thing Zhu Yixin did after coming to North America was to pull up 50,000 cavalry first.
Heard Zhu Yixin's words.
Deng Tingzhen and Lin Zexu were obviously relieved.
'The ministers are not questioning His Highness's ability to command the army.'
Deng Tingzhen remembered that he would probably have to work under His Royal Highness the King of Qin in the future, and his family would probably become the dignitary of the new Qin State in the future.
That's why I remembered to pat Zhu Yixin on the back at this time.
However, Zhu Yixin waved his hand: "Needless to say, before the end of April, 50,000 cavalry, 10,000 auxiliary soldiers, 100,000 war horses, and 100,000 donkeys or mules, all of which must be in place!" In addition, the horse farm will be expanded! These are all things that need to be done here in the Golden State Metropolitan Protectorate. If there is a mistake, military law will be conducted! β
Zhu Yixin stood up, glanced at the two of them and said.
"This matter has been done, and this king will personally ask for credit from his father for you!"
Deng Tingzhen and Lin Zexu glanced at each other.
After coming into contact with this King of Qin for a while.
They found out that the boss was actually quite easy to get along with.
Although his temperament is cold, he is not tyrannical, and his temper is not bad, he is not easily angry, and there are clear rewards and punishments.
It's also quite generous.
For example, the big black guard next to him.
Now it is the hardcore dogleg of King Zhu Daqin.
It is said that King Qin intends to learn his father's old ways.
Using the land to attract blacks in the New World Anyway, using blacks as cannon fodder to attack the white defenses - he is not joking, the shelves of the first black brigade have already begun to be built.
I don't know where he got the land for the black man.
To know.
Emperor Zhu wanted the Chinese gods to monopolize North America.
Where are blacks going in the future?
Woo woo.
A shrill whistle sounded over the Jiangbei Military Port in Shanghai.
The fleet that was arranged to go south was ready.
They will escort the prince to the South Seas, which is not the South China Sea in the modern sense, but a huge ocean that encompasses the entire Indochina Peninsula, south of the South Asian subcontinent, west of the Australian continent, and east of the African continent.
The Straits Fleet is now preparing to expand into the South Seas Fleet.
The Ming Empire is about to compete with the British for sea power in the Indian Ocean - before the war on the North American continent begins, the Emperor of the Ming Empire has decided to expand the security circle of the Ming Empire to the coastline of East Africa!
Establish a foothold in East Africa.
Then the Ming Empire's control over the future Suez Strait was guaranteed.
In Emperor Zhu's view, this was as important as the North American war.
In order to achieve this goal.
Emperor Zhu had already married several Ottoman princesses.
Although the Ottoman Empire is twilight.
But after all, they controlled the Arab region, and they were also important little brothers of the Ming Empire in the west - yes, the Ming Empire was not aligned, so many Europeans saw the Ottoman Empire as the watchdog of the Ming Empire in the West.
Then again.
The Ming Empire is still quite generous to its watchdogs.
The current Ottoman Sultan Selim III did not fall from power as a result of a coup d'Γ©tat by the Janissaries, as in history.
With the support of the Ming Empire, he built a new army, and Selim III, who had the support of a gun in his hand, gradually reorganized the government.
And also vigorously promote the "Mingwu Movement".
Hope to learn about the Ming Empire.
Build factories and recruit guns and artillery to improve yourself.
With the support of the Ming Empire.
The Ottoman Empire showed signs of recovering its national strength, and even won successive victories against the Russian Empire on the battlefields of the Balkans.
A sick dog.
After pulling the tiger skin of the Ming Empire.
It turned into a fierce dog.
However, Selim III knew that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty raised the Ottoman Empire to let them bite.
For the Ottoman Empire.
There are too many countries that they have offended now.
Without the support of the Ming Empire.
This sick dog will soon be torn apart by the wolves of the West.
Now the reason why the Western countries sit back and watch the Ottomans go crazy to bite Russia.
In fact, they are afraid of the Ming Empire behind them!
So now the Ottoman Empire is showing its teeth and claws, beating Russia wildly in the Balkans, placing more than 100,000 troops on the northern shore of the Mediterranean, and making a posture of "the Emperor of Liberation will rush into Europe at the first order".
It really scared a lot of European countries.
And under Selim III.
The Ottomans built railways, built arsenals, and trained a new army.
It does look like there are signs of ZTE.
Plus the size of the people is placed here.
So now the countries of Europe do not dare to underestimate the Ottomans.
However, as the British sent a fleet to the Indian Ocean, and in addition to the Cape Town colony in South Africa, they also controlled the islands of Madagascar and the Maldives, and at the same time tried to open a direct route to the east to the Australian mainland, threatening the Nanyang Islands of the Ming Empire - the British may not dare to start a war in the East, but their actions of establishing military bases on the Indian Ocean islands have been regarded as a threat by the Ming Empire.
This string of military bases formed a string of pearls, encircling the South Asian subcontinent of the Ming Empire and cutting off the shipping route from Malacca to the Ottoman Empire.
Therefore.
Before the big fight in North America.
In order to ensure that the Ottomans, the younger brother of the Ming Empire in the West, would not be besieged because of the loss of support from the East, resulting in the Westerners' forces occupying the Middle East.
Pull out these British strongholds in the Indian Ocean.
It has become the most urgent thing at present. (End of chapter)
