Chapter 1005: North American Strategy

In a blink of an eye, the court hall was filled with whispers.
Xiao Ming carefully observed the expressions of the generals. When everyone stopped talking, he said loudly: "Since you guys think Zhu Sansi can't serve as the commander of the east, who is willing to take on this post?"
The court fell into a dead silence and was silent for a while. Ma Xudong said: "Back to the emperor, Zhu Sansi is young and promising. The expedition to Yaksa must have accumulated rich expedition experience. The commander of the Eastern Military Region is indeed very suitable for him."
"So, you have no objections?"
"No, no." Ma Xudong sweated on his forehead.
"What about the others?" Xiao Ming looked around, his eyes swept over the generals one by one, and each general he saw lowered his head.
With a sneer, he continued: "Since there is no objection, the position of commander in the east has been set, and the matter is over. If anyone dares to chew his tongue afterwards, don't blame me for being rude."
Xiao Ming's tone revealed sullen anger, and the generals could hear it, and they understood that this was the emperor's wild dissatisfaction with them.
Luo Hong's expression also returned to normal, he didn't want to be sent to North America.
No one opposed, Xiao Ming asked Qian Dafu to read the imperial decree and formally appointed the commander of the six military regions. Then Xiao Ming set the history of each military region.
Although the army has repeatedly changed, the position of Changshi has remained the same. It is precisely because of the existence of these long histories that the army has not become the private soldiers of the generals and has always been loyal to his emperor.
Therefore, after the military reform, he paid more and more attention to the position of Chang Shi, and in order to prevent Chang Shi and the chief military officer from confuse, Chang Shi had to be changed every two years.
The appointment of generals came to an end, and Xiao Ming continued to talk about the issue of army building, which was the top priority of military reform.
According to his plan, the six military regions should all be independent and have all types of arms, and be able to stand alone in wars, and even when necessary, Great Yu can fight a six-line war at the same time.
"After this military reform, you commanders must rationally build the services of their respective military districts, cavalry, infantry with mainly Chinese rifles, machine gun squad mainly with long flat machine guns, scouts in charge of investigation, and logistics personnel in charge of food and transportation. The artillery, mine-laying troops, and engineering troops must be well established. Only when all these are completed can the military reform be considered a success." Xiao Ming said word by word.
At the same time, he asked the to hand over the brand-new "Rules for Military Construction" to the six chief generals of Lu Fei. These regulations have clear details, and it is enough to follow the above.
The reason for this is that he doesn't want to make the generals take a detour, it is better to just walk on the right path.
This is the same as the technological development and industrial and commercial development of the current empire. He now begins to formulate plans, whether it is a five-year plan or a ten-year plan, everyone and every part will be implemented in accordance with the plan he made.
In this way, the empire he ruled truly achieved curve overtaking.
A court meeting on military reform lasted all morning. The generals lost their thoughts about the position of commander and began to focus on the details of military reform.
The rest of the time he specifically answered the questions raised by the generals.
At the end of the court meeting, at noon, he set a banquet in the palace to entertain the generals.
The generals returned one after another when they were full of wine and food. At this time, he asked Qian Dafu to call Zhu Sansi into the Imperial Study Room.
"emperor."
Zhu Sansi looked a little worried, he was uncomfortable at today's meeting.
Xiao Ming smiled and said directly: "Let you be a polished commander, you won't blame me."
"How dare you at the end?" Zhu Sansi said. Xiao Ming has always held a lofty position in his heart because he, like the people in Qingzhou, has truly felt the change from poverty to wealth.
They can only be grateful for Xiao Ming who brought them out of suffering.
Xiao Ming nodded softly, "No way, if you don't do this, your position as commander will not be kept. Although I am the emperor, I cannot be absolutely dictatorial. I must always consider most of my ideas, otherwise if they are dissatisfied. , You won’t do things for me in the first place. "" The final general understands the troubles of the emperor, and sometimes he encounters this situation when he appoints a lieutenant general. "Xiao Ming is so approachable, Zhu Sansi’s spirit has also relaxed. some. "Well, it's good for you to understand. Now they have reasons to oppose you. Therefore, after the establishment of the Eastern Military Region, you have to work hard. When you are full of wings, naturally you will no longer question your ability."
While speaking, Xiao Ming led Zhu Sansi to the map of North America, and he continued: "Are you willing to go to North America? What I said at the court is not a joke."
"What the emperor Jianfeng points to is what the minister is waiting for. The emperor wants North America, and the final general will take it down for the emperor." Zhu Sansi said loudly.
Xiao Ming glanced at Zhu Sansi and said, "Actually, I have been investigating you for a long time. The Battle of Yaksa is just a little trial. It turns out that my vision is correct. This North America is the place of heaven. I leave it to those thoughts. The impure generals are not at ease, so I finally decided to let you serve as the commander of the Eastern Military Region."
"The Chosen Place?" Zhu Sansi didn't understand.
Xiao Ming explained: "Compared with the countless countries surrounding the empire, North America has a superior geographical location and has almost no natural enemies. Once there is a stable country here, within a hundred years, this country will benefit from the country’s geographic advantages and become a nation. A powerful country, and now, such a country has been established, but fortunately, this country is currently only thirteen colonies connected together~EbookFREE.me~ Most areas are still landless, I need you to seize it in advance These areas."
Zhu Sansi looked at the standard colonial spot on the map and nodded.
After a pause, he continued: "After you gain a foothold in North America, I will encourage emigration. You will be responsible for building our colonial state, gradually encroaching on North America, and eventually driving the Europeans from this land back to them. Home."
For Zhu Sansi, this has to be said to be a difficult task. He knows nothing about this place, but here is a country with the same level of civilization as Europe.
Seeing Zhu Sansi’s concern, Xiao Ming said:
Don’t worry too much. We have left behind the European firearms. This time I will equip you with machine guns. The first place you will go is Alaska. After you arrive here, you If you want to build a stronghold, call it Syracuse."
The word machine gun made Zhu Sansi's expression relaxed, at least his equipment in the Eastern Military Region would not be bad.
However, he was aware of a problem at the same time. It is naturally impossible for the number of troops to go to such a far place, because supply is a big problem. He can only continue to expand the army from the immigrants by continuously establishing colonies.
