Chapter 111 Daqin Expands the Army
Because the memorabilia in Zhengge's hand clearly stated the battle between Wannian City and the Huns.

He also clearly wrote about the current situation on the grassland.

Seeing such a memorial, Brother Zheng's expression was also very ugly.

"The Huns were actually defeated! 10,000+ Huns were all captured! How could this small Wannian City become the overlord of the grassland?"

"Furthermore, this Wannian City can actually mobilize an army of nearly a million, and can expand the city on such a large scale on the grassland!"

This information, or this Wannian City, really kept Brother Zheng awake at night.

I couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air.

So Brother Zheng can be sure that this neighbor is definitely a more terrifying and powerful enemy than the Huns, because this enemy is already the new prairie lord.

And as long as the other party thinks, it will definitely not be difficult if the other party wants to threaten Da Qin.

But when he understood the pros and cons of this, Brother Zheng was restless.

I even started to get a little scared.

Such a powerful neighbor has become the overlord of the grassland in such a short period of time right at their doorstep.

This makes brother Zheng unable to sleep in the future!

And looking at the speed of the opponent's rise, this new neighbor seems to be more powerful and terrifying than the Huns. How can this not make people feel frightened?
Being able to build such a large-scale city on the grassland is because Zheng Ge still doesn't dare to think about these things.

The most terrible thing is that the information said that this Wannian City still belongs to the farming forces.

They not only built large-scale cities on the grassland, but also reclaimed a large area of ​​fertile land and planted crops.

These methods are completely beyond Brother Zheng's imagination.

If crops can be planted recklessly on the grassland, wasteland can be reclaimed.

Then he had completely wiped out the Huns a long time ago, will he still stay in this world?
He was able to pacify the six countries, and he was able to eat the Huns without vomiting their bones.

But this new grassland overlord, they actually have such ability.

Such cases are really not to be underestimated.

And according to these intelligence reports.

Brother Zheng still has an unprecedented attitude and prudence towards these emerging forces rising from the prairie in Wannian City, because this enemy is too powerful, and even an invincible person like him dare not take it lightly.

"Eunuch Li!" Brother Zheng shouted.

"The servant is here!"

Eunuch Li, who had followed Brother Zheng for many years, immediately noticed that Brother Zheng's tone was unusual, so he quickly bowed and responded respectfully.

"From now on, let the Black Ice Terrace, the Dark Guard, and counties and counties along the border pay close attention to all the actions of the northern grasslands, especially the Wannian City. They must report everything in detail."

Eunuch Li respectfully said: "Here!"

But this is not over yet, Brother Zheng went on to say: "In addition, I will pass on my will, and from now on, I will allow the eight princes, including Ying Gao, Ying Cheng, Ying Yan Le, Ying Ming, Ying Yuan, Ying Zhong, and Ying Hu Hai. The Lord's guard can be expanded from 5 to 10."

"The imperial court can be responsible for half of the military pay for these 10 people. For the rest, they have to find their own way."

"At the same time, tell Meng Tian to let him expand the Northwest Frontier Army to 40 within half a year. The imperial court will be responsible for all the military expenses, food, weapons and equipment required."

"Also, pass the decree to Li Xin, and I will give him half a year at most to speed me up, otherwise he will not come back."

"In addition, I sent an order to the Blue Sky Camp, and I want them to build an army of one million for me within half a year, and all the weapons will be in accordance with the standards of the Tiger Army."

"I don't care what method they use, I must do it anyway! Otherwise, I will definitely punish them!"

"Okay, that's all."

Eunuch Li stood and listened to the series of orders issued by Brother Zheng.

The whole person was dumbfounded.

Your Majesty, what exactly does he want to do?Do you want to be so inspiring?

If this continues, Daqin's army can be said to be doubled in size.

Does Your Majesty want to start a big war that will use all the strength of the country?
Which country is it?
Although he couldn't understand why His Majesty would do this, Eunuch Li didn't dare to say anything, so he could only answer: "Here!"

After Brother Zheng issued this order, the entire Qing Empire was shaken up.

When the civil servants in the imperial court learned about Brother Zheng's order one by one, they all thought that Brother Zheng was crazy now?

How dare you issue such a crazy order?

But now, the entire Great Qin court needs to be responsible for the expenditure of the army every year, plus the tiger and cardinal army in the palace, the blue sky battalion army, the frontier army, the guards from all over the country, and the domestic forces of the lords of the princes. There are thousands of people.

Maintaining these more than 100 million soldiers is already a huge expense for the imperial court every year.

Now, for this expense every year, we have to bite the bullet on other expenses.

Moreover, in order to pacify the six countries before, it also required a large amount of military expenditure. Daqin's treasury revenue in these years has always been in a hurry.

Now, with Brother Zheng’s words, the number of Daqin’s army is about to double, and the military expenditure of more than 200 million troops is about to be spent. How can the court afford these?

If Daqin's army really reaches more than 200 million, then what they will have to face is that they will not be able to have other expenditures, and all the expenditures of the entire Daqin will be spent on the army.

And it may not be able to afford it.

At that time, the result will either be a fiscal deficit, and Daqin's treasury will collapse.

Either it is to increase the taxes of the people of the whole country. Originally, the people of the six countries are not very obedient to the Great Qin. If they still want to increase taxes, it may bring people's resentment.

But no matter how it is done, it is an undesirable choice for Daqin's finances.

So, now because of this matter, the Great Qin court has already turned upside down.

All the civil servants knelt down and begged Brother Zheng to take back this decision.

But Zheng Ge was indifferent to the decision of the civil servants.

Brother Zheng's fearless attitude of course made all the officials sigh.

And they are also very worried.

The Qin Dynasty had unified the world for only about ten years, and they did not want the peaceful and prosperous era that they finally obtained to fall into chaos again.

Contrary to the attitudes of these civil servants and officials are the lords and princes who are guarding the border.

The eight princes and kings were overjoyed when they learned of Brother Zheng's will.

This is completely the imperial court sending them money and food.
