"Nan Qiao."
Ignoring the stunned crowd, Jia Xuan shouted
"Yes, Master!"
Nan Qiao responded respectfully and entered the inner room. When she came out again, she was holding a book that still smelled of ink.
Then, Nan Qiao placed the book in front of Niu Jizong and others, and said:
"Nephew"
"What does this mean?"
Niu Jizong and others had some guesses, but they were not sure, their eyes were full of hope.
"Just as you think, this body-tempering skill is peaceful and neutral. As long as you take in meat and strengthen your blood, you can break through to the level of a warrior."
"This technique is enough to cultivate to the peak of martial arts, thus breaking through the innate threshold"
"With it, I think within a year, the 200,000 troops in Liaodong will all enter the martial realm, and it should not be a problem to fight against the third-grade warriors."
Facing the eyes of everyone, Jia Xuan said lightly.
What?
Hearing this, everyone present couldn't believe it.
The strength of the human immortal martial arts has crushed the ninth-grade martial arts. It won't take long for the forces under Jia Xuan's command to be enough to suppress the entire country.
At this time, taking out the skills, could it be that Jia Xuan is crazy?
But seeing Jia Xuan's confident look, they couldn't say anything extra.
"How big do you think the world is?"
"The two capitals, thirteen provinces, the desert and grassland, the West, is that all?"
"Come here, bring the things up."
Jia Xuan's soul-searching question confused Niu Jizong and others. They really didn't know how big the world was.
""Yes!"
The maids who had been waiting at the side brought out a strange-looking object.
It looked like the bottom was a bracket with a huge circle fixed on it, and then different protrusions were carved out, covered in blue and yellow respectively.
One area was conspicuous red, with"Da Jing" written in regular script.
Niu Jizong, Hou Xiaokang, Liu Fang, Feng Tang, Yue Zhongqi, and Nian Gengyao all stared at the strange ball in front of them.
"This thing is the world we live in. Of course, it is just a shape-like object."
"There are still many unknown secrets in this world that I haven't figured out."
Pointing to the simple 'globe' at hand, Jia Xuan said.
Because the map of the world of Red Mansions is roughly the same as that of the previous life, but there are still abnormal forces such as the Great Illusion Realm here, he can only use this as a reference, but this is enough, enough for these people to recognize the vastness of the world.
""Shua!!!"
Hearing this, Niu Jizong and others' eyes lit up and they looked at the globe with more interest.
"This is the two capitals, thirteen provinces and Liaodong under our control"
"The blue one is the ocean, the yellow one is the land, you can see how big the big scene is."
Jia Xuan shrugged as he placed his finger on the area marked with the big scene.
""Ah, this?"
From the globe, Niu Jizong and others clearly saw a huge landmass, Dajing was located in the eastern corner, it was not big, but not small either. The adjacent landmasses were separated by black, and the countries and forces such as Khalkha Mongolia, Chahar Mongolia, and Junggar were marked.
Goryeo and Wa were still found, but the Great Ryukyu Kingdom and the Small Ryukyu Kingdom were only a tiny dot.
Everyone looked horrified. There was actually a country larger than Dajing on it. The east-west span of Eros was almost twice that of Dajing. It was really amazing. The area ruled by the Junggar tribe alone was no smaller than the two capitals and thirteen provinces.
"The continent we are on now, Asia, is"
"I think some of you are familiar with this title."
Glancing at the crowd, Jia Xuan said
"Um々「 々「 "
Feng Tang, Nian Gengyao, and Yue Zhongqi all nodded.
《According to the"Ming History·Foreign Biography VII·Italy", during the Wanli period, Matteo Ricci, a native of that country, came to the capital and drew up the"Map of All Nations", which stated that there were five continents in the world. The first was Asia, which contained more than a hundred countries, and the Ming Dynasty was one of them.
"There is no clear dividing line between Asia and Europe where the Western Barbarians live. Rather, they are connected by land, stretching about 60,000 miles from east to west and 20,000 miles from north to south."
"This does not include several other continents. The continent across the sea from the country is inhabited by the descendants of the Shang Dynasty who crossed the sea."
"In the south of the Western Yi lived the Kunlun slaves, where there were countless grasslands, deserts, and countless beasts."
"To the north of Asia is a vast expanse of ice, where many cold-resistant animals also live. The ocean is the main body of this world, and the creatures living in the ocean far exceed those on land. Among them is a large fish, which the ancients called Kun. Its body size is more than ten feet, or even larger."
"There are many ethnic groups living in this world, and China is just one of them. If we want to plan for future generations, we must continue to expand our territory and seize the territory of the entire world, so as to establish a huge country that has never existed before."
"In this country, everyone is like a dragon, and there is no need to fight to the death for land and food."
"Two hundred thousand troops are just a seed, not enough to rule the world, at least one million or even tens of millions of troops are needed"
"I hope that the human immortal martial arts can take root in the country, and one day, everyone can become a warrior and rush towards a new future and distance."
As the words rang out in the East Courtyard, Niu Jizong and others realized that Jia Xuan's ambition did not include a country at all, but the real world.
Controlling the entire world, what a great goal it is, unprecedented in history, it makes people's hearts surge and their blood boil.
Yes, the current population of the country is already 120 million, and the two capitals and thirteen provinces cannot accommodate the lives of so many people. Even if Liaodong is added, it is a drop in the bucket and will not help. So
, what about continuing to expand outward? Controlling the grasslands, deserts and even the entire Eurasian continent, how many people can live on the vast land of about 60,000 miles from east to west and 20,000 miles from north to south, no one can predict.
As military generals and nobles, their mission is to use the knives and swords in their hands to open up their own living space for China.
"call.."
Everyone couldn't help but let out a long breath and looked at the young man in front of them with admiration.
"My dear nephew."
Niu Jizong was filled with emotion:"I, Old Niu, am convinced. I will only be convinced by you in my life."
"What about the kings, princes, generals, and sages of all dynasties? If you ask me, they are not even as good as one of your leg hairs."
"In such a big world, you only know how to mess around in the two capitals and thirteen provinces. It's just a ball."
"Hahahaha!"
This statement caused Hou Xiaokang and others to burst into laughter, but it really expressed their thoughts.
"The Dajing Zhenguohou Mansion is willing to follow Duke Qin and create a new world for the people!"
Niu Jizong was the first to kneel on one knee and said solemnly
"I am willing to follow Duke Qin and create a new world for all people!"
"I am willing to follow Duke Qin and create a new world for all people!"
The rest of the people followed and expressed their attitudes.
Following a wise monarch, they might become founding heroes and go down in history, but following Jia Xuan, they could really live forever. Who wouldn't know how to choose?
Seeing this scene, Jia Xuan's goal today has basically been achieved. The marquis and earl of the founding lineage are completely submissive to him, as if he has an arm. In this way, with the help of the power of the founding lineage, it is completely possible to transform the entire Dajing imperceptibly, thus laying the foundation for the rise.
After some discussion, Niu Jizong and others left one by one. They also had to go to summon the founding lineage nobles to confirm the monopoly of Shaodaozi. After all, such a big cake has to be divided up before everyone can feel at ease.
Even if there is no need to submit the contract fee for the time being, the purchase price of silver is not a small amount, a total of one million jars of Shaodaozi a year.
There are as many as 120 million people in the two capitals and 13 provinces, as well as the four barbarians outside the Great Wall, etc. Who doesn't want to get more wine.
Watching them leave, Jia Xuan's mouth curled up slightly
"The Duke is so capable"
"In this way, the founding lineage can be truly united as one."
"In the future, even if someone in the palace wants to take action, he will have to consider whether he is powerful enough.
The only person who stayed at the scene was the new governor of Jizhen, Ningyuan Earl Yue Zhongqi, who couldn't help but admire
"Ning Yuanbo thinks this is not good?
Jia Xuan turned and looked at Yue Zhongqi.
"Of course it's good."
Yue Zhongqi blurted out without thinking.
From the moment the Guochao was established, the royal family has been known for being mean, and Taizu, Taishanghuang, and Jinshang are no exception.
Why must the nine important border towns be restored? Even at the beginning of the founding of the former Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was able to drive Mongolia to the northern desert and won victory after victory. Can't Dajing do it?
Because the strength of Dajing's army had long been consumed, and the decline of Ning and Rong mansions indirectly led to the decline of meritorious officials. All of this was led by the royal family behind the scenes. As a veteran of the army, how could the Yue family not understand this.
Any general hopes that his lord can absolutely believe in himself, at least not to end up in misery after his death. Obviously, the royal family can't do this, and Yue Zhongqi's choice to change his allegiance is understandable.
"I was thinking about how to integrate the founding lineage."
"Palace���Some haste, but it helped me."
Facing Yue Zhongqi's gaze, Jia Xuan said with a smile.
The emperor was only concerned with eliminating the last hidden danger for Emperor Yongping and integrating a force that could truly obey the command of Emperor Yongping.
However, he did not expect that this move was exactly what the Jia family needed, or that Jia Xuan needed to eliminate those useless things, so as to leave the truly useful people, that is, this group of nobles who survived the death in Liaodong.
Only those who have experienced life and death together can truly establish emotional ties, coupled with the entanglement of interests, to form an unbreakable relationship.
Therefore, what the emperor did was equivalent to making wedding clothes for Jia Xuan. How ridiculous it is that you are calculating for others!
"¨‖ ¨‖ This is also the Duke's kindness!"
Yue Zhongqi said with a smile.
If Jia Xuan had not been so generous to give the profitable business of burning knives to the founding lineage, thus solving the founding lineage's major problem of financial resources and providing them with a steady stream of gold and silver, it would be a great help whether it was to support the family or cultivate power.
Then, the founding lineage would not be willing to submit to the Duke of Qin. After all, whose ancestors were not dukes?
Moreover, the power of the human immortal martial arts far exceeded their imagination. Faced with the temptation of becoming stronger, who could avoid it?
"Let's not talk about the small talk anymore, let's talk about the business first."
Waving his hand, Jia Xuan changed the subject.
""Please give me your orders, Lord!"
Yue Zhongqi's face immediately became extremely serious.
He understood that keeping him here must be related to Jizhen, but he was not sure what the specific mission was.
Then, a map of northern Zhili and the area outside the Great Wall was presented to Yue Zhongqi, with the Great Wall, Gubeikou, Xifengkou, etc. clearly marked on it, as well as the Bashang Plateau, Modong Horqin Grassland, Yinshan Mountain, Daxinganling, etc. outside the Great Wall.
"Jizhen, the most important military town among the nine frontiers, was originally established to contain other frontier towns and the Beijing camp."
"This is where the most outstanding army and commander of the former Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang's Qi Family Army, was born."
"Gubeikou is the most important pass in the entire nine-border defense system, located between Shanhaiguan and Juyongguan."
"If we hurry up, we can reach the capital in less than a day. The geographical location is extremely strategic."
Circling an area on the map, Jia Xuan said solemnly.
In fact, the entire Jizhen defense wall, including Gubeikou, is about 160 miles long and built on the basis of Yanshan Mountain.
Gubeikou is bordered by Panlong Mountain in the east and Wohu Mountain in the west. The mountains are steep and the cliffs are steep. The two mountains block the Chaohe River. There is only one road on the river bank that can be passed by cars. During the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin Kingdom built an iron gate to guard it, and it was also called Tiemenguan.
"Hmm?"
At this moment, Yue Zhongqi's doubts deepened.
"According to the system, the nine important towns have a full complement of 100,000 soldiers each, but this has been weakened since the reign of Emperor Taizu. Now, they can only have 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers, which is the limit. This is why Jizhen only sent 50,000 soldiers to reinforce Liaodong this time."
"What I need you to do is to have a full complement of 100,000 men after you take office, and the same as in Liaodong, 50,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry."
"The Tempering Body Skill will be passed down. The soldiers of Jizhen are backed by Yanshan Mountain. Are they still afraid of not having meat?"
Yue Zhongqi widened his eyes and looked at Jia Xuan in surprise. It was no small matter to fully staff Jizhen.
That was 100,000 people, not 100,000 pigs. Just the food cost at least one million taels of silver a year, and they had to be equipped with armor, weapons, war horses, etc.
According to the nature of the Ministry of War, it was good enough to guarantee the expenses of 50,000 people. It was simply a foolish dream to want to expand the army!
"Soldiers and armor will be transported from Liaodong, and war horses will enter through Gubeikou."
Jia Xuan said calmly.
"Can..."
Yue Zhongqi hesitated to speak.
