As time goes by, this purely martial arts debate has completely put the water and land dispute that has just revealed its signs on the surface.

If the Daheng Blade and Cavalry, who had great military achievements in the past, might not have taken the navy seriously. After all, after hundreds of years of maritime ban on the Ming Dynasty, overseas was unfamiliar to most people in the world.

However, the Daheng Sea ban has long been abolished, and it is even more closely related to overseas exchanges.

What is the overseas situation and the prospects? As long as you have a little power, it is probably no secret, let alone Daheng Wuxun present.

A small country gallops through the ocean tens of thousands of miles and plunders the world's wealth...

Daheng re-enathed the navy and even expanded the navy with a scale that had never been seen since ancient times. Such an intention is obviously worth pondering.

Especially now, Daheng still emphasizes commerce, and Daheng Wuxun, since the emperor forbidden Wuxun from having too much land, has always been tolerant and even indulged in Daheng Wuxun's interests in business.

Maritime trade has always been the focus of trade, and the navy naturally involves the interests of the sky.

Not to mention the professional rights and interests involved in such a large-scale expansion of the Navy today and even in the future...

In just a short moment, the Martial Masters, led by Li Dingguo, were refuted so much that they had nothing to say.

The emperor still never said anything and allowed him to compete against each other.

The emperor has always believed that any new policy needs interest inducement and needs to be protected by the vested interests of the policy.

For example, the education system, why did official education in the Ming Dynasty and even previous dynasties often feel lonely? The fundamental reason is that there is no vested interest class to protect official education.

Therefore, the emperor set up a supervisory yamen, from the center to the county town, educating people to handle educational affairs. If such a vertical system is laid out, it represents the interests of thousands of supervisory officials.

And the same is true for the sea trade.

If we rely solely on private trade, the upper-class powerful people in Daheng will not get much benefit, or in other words, only a small number of upper-class powerful people can get benefits, while the vast majority of the powerful people cannot see or obtain it.

There is no doubt that the strategy of sea ban, or as in the Ming Dynasty, when Jiangnan sea merchants used the strategy of sea ban to implement monopoly, would inevitably happen.

Therefore, the reliance of maritime trade and commerce, the navy cannot be just a matter of the navy's martial merits, but also of the entire Daheng's martial merits.

Only by allowing the entire Daheng Wuxun to participate in the affairs of the navy can the navy's maritime trade interests represented by the navy be not monopolized by a certain part of the people.

The Daheng Wuxun, who are all involved in the maritime trade, will naturally be the vested interest class of maritime trade and will inevitably protect the interests of maritime trade.

Wu Xun participated in maritime trade and promoted maritime trade with his power, which brought taxes and would inevitably greatly enrich the national treasury. In this way, civil servants would naturally become supporters of maritime trade strategies.

A country, civil servants and military generals, are all supporters of a policy, and this policy is a long-term national policy that no one can violate.

Even if the kings of later generations are ignorant and want to forbid the sea, civil officials and military generals who are vested interests will not be allowed.

As long as the sea trade is open, it means that communication with the world will not stagnate, and even if Da Heng falls behind in the future, it will not fall too far behind.

The battle was getting more and more full of gunpowder. When it was almost impossible to stop, the emperor spoke up: "Okay!"

In just two short words, the noise in the tent suddenly dispersed, and the martial arts honors subconsciously looked at the emperor.

"You all know the importance of the navy."

The emperor stood up and walked to the map, pointing to the vast land outside Daheng on the map: "With the small country, a navy can still gallop across tens of thousands of miles of seas and plunder the wealth of the world."

"My Great Everlasting is vast and boundless. How can the country in the Heavenly Kingdom fall behind others!"

"The expansion of the navy is imperative..."

As for this, the emperor looked around the military generals present: "The navy was expanded very widely, and the soldiers were vacant. The Navy Department of the Martial Academy will recruit students from all armies in the near future, and all soldiers and generals can sign up to participate..."

After a few short sentences, the emperor made a tough decision. Li Dingguo and several naval generals couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor changed the subject and completely shifted the topic to the navy.

"The expansion of the navy should be a long-term strategy, not a temporary achievement."

"The current focus of the country is on rural and commercial."

Two sentences made Wu Xun present confused.

The navy's untimely and temporarily achieved the right achievements, so it is naturally clear.

How long does it take to expand several main naval forces? It can be clearly seen by referring to the Jiangnan and Denglai naval forces.

With the support of massive manpower and material resources, several shipyards in Daheng have been working day and night. It took so many years for the two major navy masters in Jiangnan and Denglai to be formed.

Even if we are unified today, it is obviously not something that can be accomplished in one or two years to organize several main navy troops from scratch. Just the organization will probably have to be a year or two, let alone shipyards and warships.

And domestic governance, agriculture and commerce...

This strategy of separation between military and political affairs has just been decided. What does it have to do with them?

Fortunately, the emperor was not present at Wu Xun for too long, so he spoke again: "Although the focus is not on military affairs, military affairs cannot be relaxed."

With words, the emperor's eyes circulated on the map, and finally looked to the southwest, northwest, and northeast.

"The three directions of the southwest, northwest, and grassland are the focus of the current and future land military affairs."

When it comes to their duties, most of the martial arts present with different expressions became solemn.

"The southwestern border is mainly in Yunnan and Guizhou."

The emperor looked at Yan Shun who had already stood up: "There are many chieftains in the southwest border. First, we should focus on stability, and use points to lead the surface to repair the road..."

"I understand."

After the emperor's brief sentences, Yan Shun immediately understood. As he thought before, the military focus was not in Yunnan and Guizhou in a short period of time, but in the north.

As Yan Shun thought, after briefly deciding the policy direction of Yunnan and Guizhou, the emperor pointed to the grassland and the northwest.

The emperor's eyes also looked at the other three Dukes, Duke Jingguo, Duke Liao, and Duke Ding, all of whom were the commanders of the three armies who had fought in the northern border for many years.

Seeing this, the three dukes looked at each other, and then the person who spoke out did not even expect the emperor to have it.

"Report to Your Majesty, Lin Dankhan has led his troops south to plunder the border of Daheng many times, but he has repeatedly made no contributions, but he has suffered heavy losses."

"The grasslands today have been destroyed by the cold winter last year, and most of them are not subject to the jurisdiction of Lin Danhan and fight against each other. The grasslands today are also full of chaos, and the grasslands are divided again is also the general trend..."

"In this way, if it is just a disaster in the plains, it will not be too difficult for our military strength..."

"But I think the grassland is easy to calm, but the northwest is hard to rest!"

When the words fell, the tent returned to silence, and the eyes of the martial heroes seemed to be gathered on Zhou Yuji, the Duke of Dingguo who was standing with his fists.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the tent seemed a little strange.

After the Battle of Liaodong, the dignified Duke was directly exiled to North Korea, but it is still vivid in my mind.

Although I have been transferred back to Shaanxi recently, it seems that this is the first time I have met the emperor...

After a while, the emperor's voice came out quietly.

"Tell me, look."

After this statement, the strange atmosphere in the tent was also broken. The upright Duke Dingguo was obviously relieved and bowed to the emperor again: "I think that Lin Danhan is not the enemy of my Daheng. My Daheng only needs to block the border every year, implement a strategy of differentiation and win over, and then send partial troops to harass him. Sooner or later, Lin Danhan will be overwhelmed..."

"It is also easy to pacify the grassland for so many years."

"But once Lin Dankhan is wiped out, our army will be unable to garrison the grasslands. The grasslands are chaotic and empty, and the majority of the northern desert and mountains may take advantage of the opportunity to enter the grasslands again and cause trouble, and become the enemy of our Daheng..."

"I think that the strategy of differentiation and winning over should not be used against Mongolia or the divisions in the northwest and western regions, so that their dogs can bite their dogs..."

"My Daheng took this to penetrate the northwest. When the opportunity comes, we will first set the northwest and then eliminate the grassland's dangers in one fell swoop..."

The emperor asked again: "Tell me about the details of the northwest."

"Report to Your Majesty, there are mainly four major tribes in the northwest, namely the Junggar tribe, the Hoshuote tribe, the Turkut tribe and the Dulbert tribe. The four major tribes are connected with each other. Under the major tribes, there are also small tribes with vassals..."

"And among them, Batur, the leader of the Junggar tribe, was ambitious. Since the end of the Ming Dynasty, he has been conquering everywhere, expanding territory, and even fighting with the Tsarist Russia..."

"But, the current leader of the Northwest Alliance is still the leader of the alliance, Eziertu Khan, but most of the divisions have their own thoughts and there are many conflicts in secret."

"The remnants of the Later Jin tribe who fled at the time are now under the Junggar tribe. Dorgon is said to have also been received by Batur, the leader of the Junggar tribe..."

"I think that in this situation in the northwest, it will sooner or later be in chaos. The various tribes will sooner or later be united, and it will inevitably become a problem for our Daheng..."

"Besides, if the northwest is uneven, the grassland will never be stable..."

After Zhou Yuji finished speaking, when he saw the emperor's contemplative expression, he couldn't help but feel nervous again.

Since the establishment of the Daheng army, they have been invincible and have been invincible in the battle!

His defeat was too conspicuous and shameful among the countless great victories!

Only with unquestionable military achievements can we clean up the greatest shame since the founding of the army of Daheng!

And he is in charge of Shaanxi, Shaanxi...that is, the place of Guanzhong, the place of Guanzhong, which is adjacent to the northwest and the northwest...

The Huns of the Han Dynasty, the Turks of the Tang Dynasty, and now the northwest of Daheng... also have great enemies.

Ping the northwest, Ding the Western Regions, attack the grasslands, and even seal the wolf's servants...

This military achievements are enough to cleanse his shame.

Now let’s see if the emperor agrees with his strategy.

First pacify the northwest, then adjust the Western Regions, and then sway the grasslands...
