After recuperating at home for a while, Li Jing has been in good spirits recently.

His face was rosy, his waist was no longer sore, and his legs were no longer hurt. He could climb the nine-story tower in one breath without breathing heavily. His legs were not very straightforward, but now he was already full of energy.

In the past, I was in a hurry to retire, but it was not entirely because of my legs. I mainly wanted to retreat bravely, so I avoid being suspicious of the emperor at the top of my body. But after staying home for a long time, I was bored.

He is a god of war, staying at home all day, accompanying his wife to organize the garden, plant flowers and grass, walking dogs and having birds, practicing Tai Chi in the morning, and taking a walk in the evening. This kind of day is really fresh at the beginning. It is really not necessary to get up early and go to court all day, deal with a lot of military affairs every day, and even leading troops to sleep in the open air. It's great.

But it was fine for a short time, but after a long time, Li Jing felt uncomfortable everywhere.

But he was going to retreat, so he couldn't run back to work, and there was no place for him in the Privy Council. So Li Jing had to go to the martial arts lecture hall from time to time to go to the martial arts lecture hall, after all, he also had the title of general counselor of the martial arts lecture hall.

This time I returned to the imperial court, but I only returned to the advisor's military aircraft with the title of Ether Protection, but the feeling of sitting there was really different.

A long-lost passion.

Listening to those old guys talking about beating this and killing that, my blood was so excited.

"Old coach, what do you think?" the emperor asked Li Jing with a smile.

Li Jing withdrew his mind and said, "The old minister thought that the country of Japan must be beaten. If you don't fight, the leader of the Trustworth will be threatened sooner or later. But when to fight and how to fight, there is still some point. I believe that Your Majesty's recent attitude towards Trustworth is worthy of recognition."

"Xindu is becoming more and more stable and has completely gained a foothold. The Jieji Kingdom can no longer do anything to our Xindu leadership. On the contrary, under the blockade of the imperial court's Xindu, Yongji and Xinji ports, the Jieji Kingdom is actually in a situation where although it is still east and west, it actually loses its seaports. They have become an inland country. Under the strategy of the imperial court, even if the King of Jieji is not dead now, it will take a few years to lose their coastal land."

"This is a process of boiling frogs in warm water. If they lose their coastal land, they will no longer be able to go out to sea, and they will completely lose their qualifications to participate in maritime trade, threatening our merchant ships. They will even lose the way to communicate with other countries in South Asia."

Li Jing stayed at home for a long time, but his research on the situation has never stopped.

Not only did he finish writing several of his military books at home, he was even studying a question, that is, how Dahua maintains maritime interests in the Age of Discovery. In his research, Dahua must take over the Indochina Peninsula and South Asia, and it needs to be transformed into a place where the imperial court directly governs the local government. Only in this way can there be no flaws in geostrategic strategy, and only in this way can Dahua become more stable. Taking over the South Asian continent and the Indochina Peninsula, plus the Nanyang Islands, can Dahua be laid with 800 years of foundation, or even a thousand-year foundation.

This will be another huge expansion opportunity after the expansion of the Chinese ethnic group eight hundred years after the Zhou Dynasty enfeoffed the world.

The Chinese people can go out completely and are no longer limited to the Yellow River Basin and the Yangtze River Basin.

As long as we adhere to this strategy, even if it takes a hundred years or even longer to explore and conquer, along this goal, we will definitely be able to build this territory and allow Dahua to have a thousand-year foundation. Even if Dahua falls into ruin in the future, it will only be replaced by another family of the Chinese ethnic group and continue to rule this vast foundation, and will not be replaced by foreign races.

To occupy South Asian continent, reliability is the key.

That is Dahua's foothold in South Asia. With this foothold, what Dahua has to do is to destroy the Abhiri and destroy this emerging dynasty with a trustworthy north.

First destroy the Jieji Dynasty in the north, then attack Zhaloqi in the south, and finally unify the continent.

"The Jie Ri State has more than 30 vassal states, not counting the enfeoffed princes of all sizes. Now, when King Jie Ri died, he has no descendants to inherit it. Not to mention who can compete for the throne, even those more than 30 vassal states, I am afraid that no one will be willing to submit to the new king. A civil war is inevitable, and the division of the north is inevitable. Governor Wang Xuance proposed a year of truce. The old minister thought it was very important to make a good move, so he let them fight first."

Zhang Chao himself also had this idea, and he was not in a hurry to get a quit.

We must first let the alliance of the Jieji Dynasty collapse and disperse, so that we can defeat them one by one.

"Why does the court have to do nothing now?"

"Of course not. The court can prepare for the troops a year later. The troops have not moved, but the food and grass must be carried out first."

The imperial court is not completely enfeoffing overseas territories. It is directly under the imperial government in many important ports. These ports are on the Dahua sea trade route and are important commercial ports, supply ports, and even transfer ports. Thanks to the huge foreign trade, these commercial ports are very prosperous.

The ports directly controlled by the imperial court could even exceed ten or a hundred times the taxes of other princes to be enfeoffed by the princes. Moreover, the imperial court used these ports as bases to station naval fleets and land combat divisions, and even stationed some army troops in some extremely important ports, and there were militia troops in each port.

Xindu alone has six port cities, namely Xindu Port, Yongji Port, Mumbai Port, Goa Port, Bangladesh and Xinji Port. These six port cities are also six military fortresses, located by two fleets of the Navy Xindu Fleet and the Bangladesh Fleet, and two divisions of the Marine Corps are stationed.

All the six ports are directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

The court is still conquering the Lion Kingdom. The Lion Kingdom is Sri Lanka in later generations. It is a large island across the sea from the southern part of the Indian mainland. In recent years, it has developed well because of the cheaper sea trade. As a result, it is a little arrogant and wants to provoke Dahua. Now it is being trained by the navy and attacked one after another.

If the navy had not been trained, this small Lion Kingdom would have been defeated long ago.

"First end the conquest between the Lion Kingdom and Alakan, let the Navy be more serious. The training of troops is almost done. Stop torturing them anymore. I ask them to completely capture the two countries by the end of the year."

Both the Lion Kingdom and the Alakan are just small countries. They have no population and no strength. For such small countries, Dahua can destroy it just by saying that it is destroyed. It depends on how serious the Dahua can take.

Previously, the court asked the Xindu Fleet to deal with the Lion Kingdom and the Bangladesh Fleet to deal with the Alagan. Both fleets were dispatched to take turns to train troops.

Every time a few cities are attacked along the coast, the landing team will be escorted to land, and after landing, sweep a hundred miles, pull out a few cities, sweep a village, catch tens of thousands of slaves, and then bring the spoils to the team.

After a few times, all fleets were trained, and the cooperation between the navy and the Marine Corps was better. Most importantly, this offensive model is most beneficial to Dahua's navy and Marine Corps. It can catch the enemy off guard every time, with low logistics supply pressure and no head-on confrontation with the enemy, so there are basically no casualties.

Every time animates some of the enemy's troops, the number of horses is accumulated, and many of the enemy's troops are unknowingly annihilated. Especially under this method of attack, the coastal areas of the two countries are basically like sieves, with many flaws. The Dahua Navy comes whenever he wants and leaves when he wants, and they have no choice.

Except for some inland mountainous areas, the Dahua army has not yet penetrated deeper, and has basically traveled everywhere else.

Zhang Chao said that the time was right and it was time to close the net. The two fleets and the two land combat divisions would naturally be able to pick the ripe fruit for the emperor.

"Give the Xindu Fleet, the Bangladesh Fleet and the two land combat divisions to each increase the military expenditure of 5 million kilowattacks, so that they can buy what they should buy and reward what they should reward, and make full preparations for war. Before the end of the year, they will completely capture the Lion Kingdom and the Alakan Kingdom. Next year, I will ask the two fleets to join forces with the Xindu Princes to launch a full-scale attack on Jie Ri."

Li Jing couldn't help but say, "I have been idle at home for a while, and my bones are stiff. I ask to go to Xindu!"

"Oh, I've been in Beijing for a long time and I'm really idle. I'm also asking for a change of trust." The Privy Councilor Qin Qiong was not willing to fall behind.

Another group of old generals also requested.

"Why use a knives to kill chickens? If the old generals took action personally, I am afraid that the king of the small country would be scared to death. Liu Rengui was appointed as the admiral of Bangladesh, responsible for the military affairs of Bangladesh and the Alakan region, and commanded the officers of the destruction of Alakan. Xue Rengui was appointed as the admiral of Xindu, responsible for the military affairs of the southwest coast of Xindu, and responsible for the military affairs of the Lion State."

Li Jing and Qin Qiong wanted to go for a walk in Xindu, but Zhang Chao finally refused.

These military tycoons can't move easily, and there is no need for them.

The generals should just stay in the capital, just go to the place, so young people can go there.

Liu Rengui and Xue Rengui are also the best among the young and strong sects, so let them do their best.

Jinyiwei Yamen.

Ke Xiong smiled and called a meeting of the senior officials of the Jinyiwei. Today he was praised by the emperor in front of the emperor. When he came out, he met Ke Qing, the commander of the Flying Cavalry, and the chief constable of Liusanmen. When the three bigwigs of the intelligence community met, both of them admired the Jinyiwei's recent big money, which made him feel very proud.

"Everyone, King Jie Ri died, and died at the hands of our Jinyiwei, just like the Emperor of Japan. Any enemy monarch who is against our Dahua will be punished even if our Jinyiwei is far away."

"Your Majesty today discusses with the old generals in the court. He has decided to attack and destroy the Lion Kingdom and the Alagan Kingdom by the end of the year. This time he is serious and will no longer play with them. As usual, our Jinyiwei must be responsible for military intelligence. Military information is our main job, and I also believe in your professional abilities."

"But what I want to give today is not this. I will give you a special task, which is to bring the heads of the kings of the two countries back to the Jinyiwei."

“Can it be done?”

"able!"

A group of senior officials of the Jinyiwei shouted fiercely, "Killing the king is the most exciting thing."
