I will hold high the dragon flag in the world of the heavens

Chapter 54 Food Army Reform and Operation Thunder!
Lin Danhan saw that the Daming Industrial Zone was so prosperous and powerful, and he no longer wanted to fight for hegemony.Afterwards, he directly announced that he would join the Ming Dynasty.

Then, the news of ordering the steppe tribe to surrender was issued.

At the beginning, the grassland tribes were panicked.

Some are against it, some are for it!
An ambitious person tried to break off with Lin Dan Hann, and angrily broke away from the control of the Golden Family!
Lin Danhan begged Daming to send troops to suppress the rebellion.

Soon, Cao Wenzhao led five thousand cavalry of the new army all the way to conquer the grassland.

They used weapons across the ages to defeat the grassland tribes.

In less than two months, the nomadic tribes in the Mobei Grassland either fled further west, or chose to become a member of the Ming Dynasty.

Unlike before, the grassland herdsmen no longer wanted to join Daming in name.

They also need to receive a certain degree of Ming education every year.

If you want to control the grassland and let countless herdsmen willingly call themselves Daming people, you can't do it through unlimited killing.

Grace and prestige can only be used in dual ways.

Only by being kind to grassland herdsmen sincerely can we absorb the rebellious herdsmen into Daming people.

Unlike the Ming Dynasty that controlled the grassland in name, the new army is using a more three-dimensional way to infiltrate the grassland!

Military support, provision of agricultural tools, trade of daily necessities, treatment of medical treatment, diseases, and even allowing some criminals to build cities in water and land resources all over the grassland are all means to control the grassland.

Grassland Raiders is proceeding in an orderly manner!

At this time, the new army of Ming Dynasty can be said to be the most powerful army in the world, and no enemy can resist the attack of the new army.So the grassland quickly stabilized.

In terms of Houjin, it was also wiped out.

All the Houjin people who were captured were all included in the Jurchen clan.

They want to work hard for national integration!
Because of the wars in recent years, the education and reformation of the Jurchen clan by the people of Daming was the most severe.The slave soldiers who participated in the massacre of Ming people became a construction team composed of criminals.

What they do is the most tiring work.

Build bridges and pave roads, mine minerals...

However, the people of Daming are very generous towards these construction teams composed of criminals.

As long as they work hard, they are never harsh on food.

The captured Hou Jin Jurchen had a population of about 92, including 57 young and strong women, all of whom were drawn into construction teams composed of criminals.

They want to build a road starting from the capital, passing through Shanhaiguan, crossing Liaoyang, and heading east, with a distance of at least 3 kilometers.

The end of this road is Wuerian Port in front of the Bering Strait, which is the shortest distance to America, and this is also the migration route of one of the two roads of Ming Dynasty!
This is a huge project.

There is no threat of land border troubles for the time being, and the sea area of ​​Daming has become more lively recently.

Zheng Zhilong and a group of Ming maritime merchants will be busy for at least a few years.

Because the Great Ming Migration Plan has already begun.

Emigrating to the Americas is a huge project. Before immigrating to the Americas, they also immigrated to Liaodong to occupy the land.

In order to alleviate the impact of natural disasters and alleviate the people's food crisis, Daming made the whole country's effort to carry out the immigration plan this time.

If you want to immigrate, the first thing is naturally food.

At sea, the maritime merchants of Daming accepted the unified command of Zheng Zhilong.Tens of thousands of sea-going ships.

They brought a large amount of spices, luxury accessories, gold and silver, and outdated bird guns and ammunition, and reached agreements with Annan, the Portuguese and other countries.

Zheng Zhilong will purchase grain starting from tens of millions of stones and transport it to the Ming Dynasty.

The appearance of countless luxury accessories and various arms in Ming Dynasty made Annan nobles and Portuguese and Spaniards very fond of it.

Zheng Zhilong's navy and the terrifying fighting power of the Ming Dynasty's new army also made these people dare not have other thoughts.

So all food transactions are going well!

The Ming people exchanged countless supplies for food from the Annan people and Nanyang people in the south.

As for the Little Ice Age, whether the people in Annan and Nanyang could eat enough, eat well, and starve to death, it is none of the business of the nobles and colonists.

All in all, the grain trade is going fast!

But money wasted too quickly.

Even with the selfless dedication of the vassal king, even if there are countless sophisticated industrial products produced by the Miaoqu Pavilion, they cannot withstand the consumption of Daming's money.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen was forced by Chen Mu to be a villain again.

Zhu Youjian looked at the document in his hand, panting and excited.

"Master Hou, do you really want to attack military households?"

Chen Mu gnawed on the watermelon grown in the greenhouse, and nodded silently: "You don't feel right?"

Zhu Youjian was a little worried: "Tianxiawei has as many as 200 million! If one is not good, the world will be in chaos!"

Chen Mu bared a smile: "How does it compare with the vassal king?"

Zhu Youjian paced back and forth: "It's different, the guards are too scattered. Daming has millions of soldiers."

"A military order to test the school can solve it."

Zhu Youjian was still a little undecided.

boom!
Chen Mu directly smashed the chair.

"Do you want to do it, motherfucker?"

"Zhen..." Zhu Youjian looked at Chen Mu's cold expression, his legs were clamped tightly, and he trembled violently.

"Dry it, of course it is!"

Hearing what Zhu Youjian said, Chen Mu smiled happily: "That's true!"

Seeing Chen Mu leave, Chongzhen's palms turned white.

Before his death, the emperor asked him to follow their method. Since he can't resist, then continue to listen to them!
Anyway, Daming is getting better at a speed visible to the naked eye in this short period of time.

After leaving Chongzhen, Chen Mu pressed the earphones: "Everyone, Zhu Youjian is too familiar with us, I'm a bit hard to beat him up."

Chen Aiguo's voice came from the earphones: "Understood, we have played tricks for too long. He has received such a long period of ideological education, and he must have doubts in his heart. It's time for us to show our cards."

"understand!"

……

In the first year of Chongzhen, at the end of April.

The new army organized by Daming suddenly moved on a large scale.

Except for the [-] sergeants guarding the capital, the newly formed new army was divided into nine routes with the help of four-wheeled carriages, and marched towards the important town of Ming Dynasty and the companion capital of Jinling.

At the same time, Wei Zhongxian and Dongchang Fanzi, who had been idle for more than ten days, also received an order: anti-corruption!

This anti-corruption campaign is mainly aimed at the nobles of the Ming Dynasty and the generals of the hereditary guards of the Ming Dynasty.

The reason for targeting the generals of the whole Ming Dynasty is naturally because 10 new troops have been trained.

The firepower beyond this era is completely crushing against the fighters of the old era.

The New Army of the Ninth Route worked fast and finally arrived at various border defense towns before June [-]st.

Afterwards, the Daming Weekly made an effort, and two imperial edicts were issued at the same time.

The first of the two edicts is innovation.

From July [-]st of the first year of Chongzhen, all military households in Ming Dynasty were cancelled.The recruitment of soldiers is officially held through the recruitment system!

Put all the land in the guard house into Daming, and rent it to military households for free. Even after the tax holiday ends, the rent will be half cheaper than other lands in Daming.

As for the land owned by the generals, the official position shall prevail, and the corrupted land will be seized, and a small amount of compensation will be given for the excess, and the corrupted part will be directly confiscated and returned to the public!

All generals and soldiers who want to serve as soldiers need to pass the test before they can continue to serve as the new Ming army.In order to prevent the hereditary upper, middle, and low-level personnel in the health center from being unable to adapt to social life, conditions for re-employment can be provided to them.Nine border towns need to undergo reorganization and training before they can rejoin the team.

The second edict is the anti-corruption announcement.

Over 260 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the guards have been corrupted, nobles and cholera, the soldiers and the system that used to protect the country have gradually become bad governance.

In order to make the bright sun and the moon permanent, the anti-corruption plan was launched.All the generals of the Daming Guard who have reached a certain level of corruption will be revoked their titles, and those who have committed the most serious crimes will receive lifelong reform through labor.

If you want hereditary generals to have the chance to take the blame, then follow the feudal lord and set off to the New World!

After that, any soldier who reported corruption to his superiors could be promoted.Those who perform well can be promoted to three levels in a row!
With the imperial decree, the hereditary generals, thousands of households, hundreds of households, and Xiaoqi of the world's guards were in an uproar, but the eyes of the guards' military households gleamed.

The guard system customized by Zhu Taizu was very good in the early stage.

It's a pity that the guards in the later period completely became the private land of the hereditary generals of the Ming Dynasty.

The frontier defense is okay, but the life of the military households in the inland guards is not as good as that of the tenants.

At this moment, hearing His Majesty the Emperor's reform of the guard system, he naturally welcomes it.

This is a contest between the vested interests of Ming Dynasty and the immediate losers.

The generals of the hereditary guards naturally resisted.

It's a pity that the Nine Route New Army's combat effectiveness is too fierce.Before the fire of resistance was ignited, it was easily extinguished.

In the final statistics, Xungui and Jiangmen used more than 7000 innocent lives to prove the strength of the new army's combat effectiveness.

Jinling, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, did not cause any chaos, and was easily controlled!
[-]% of Wei Guogong's property and land in Jinling were confiscated.

All the descendants of the Jinling lineage were forced to move to the New World America with the feudal lord!

Countless nobles who provoked anger and resentment, and who did a lot of evil were controlled by the new army.

These parties must spend their entire lives working hard to obtain the chance of redemption.

The family property of Xungui and Jiangmen, those who ransacked their homes, and those who returned to the public were returned to the public.With this innovation, the Ming officials once again obtained 4000 million mu of land and seized 5000 million taels of gold and silver.

Arrested corrupt nobles and hereditary generals of the Ming Dynasty, with a total of 7 family members.

Either they will follow the feudal lord to the new continent and open up the world.

Either stay in Daming and accept labor reform day and night, there is no choice!
