I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

In addition, 3 kamikaze commandos were recruited from Washima Governor's Mansion, 2.2 from the Joseon Loyalty Army from Andong Governor's House, and 1 from the Cochin Jungle Special Forces.

Of course, the Governor of Washima, the Governor of Anton on the Korean peninsula, and the chief envoy of Jiaozhi have a good family son of Zhuka of the Ming Dynasty, and those who meet the conditions for joining the army can also apply for the record at the first level of the Imperial Military Department of Shenzhou County.

To sum up, the total number of recruits in Ming Dynasty this round is 40.

In addition to last year's military expansion in line with the Sunset Project, the total military strength of Ming Dynasty has reached an all-time high of 520 million.

which contains:

There are 70 people in all yamen of Fusi in Nanbei Town of Jinyiwei.

There are 50 production and construction corps in each land reclamation base.

Each commanded 320 million field troops.

There are 30 standing troops in the chief ministers, governors, and propaganda divisions.

50 people in the navy.

At present, the Royal Air Force is subordinate to the Naval Air Force and the Army Air Force respectively, and there is no dedicated air force for the time being.

According to Zhu Fugui's preliminary design, after the war, the total number of Ming's troops should be reduced to about 400 million.

The 400 million high-attribute Great Tomorrow soldiers are about three times the number of US troops in later generations, enough to protect the interests of the empire in the world.

As for the fact that the Nongken Division and Jinyiwei accounted for a relatively large proportion of the Ming army, Zhu Fugui can only say that all crows are the same.

With more than 100 million troops in Laomei, how many real front-line combat troops are there?

How many people are there to sell dog meat like that transgender four-star general?

Daming's military strength is already very dry and solid.

And as long as the garrisons in the British Isles and Gibraltar are maintained, Ming basically does not need to station too many troops in Beiyinzhou, Wa Island, North Korea, and the central and eastern regions of China.

More troops can be deployed to key border areas and many overseas military bases to achieve effective power projection.

And 400 million troops, although not too small for the Taiping Empire, it is not too heavy a burden.

In this way, Ming Dynasty can further calmly adjust the personnel ratio of the three armed forces, update weapons and equipment, and even spend military expenses on more meaningful places.

Like the Ming version of the Manhattan Project.

This is a big plan of 20 billion Ming Yuan, which is equivalent to RMB 5000 billion!

Even if Daming can avoid detours and save a lot, it will still be a major challenge to Zhu Fugui's internal funds.

Had to think long and hard.

It is worth explaining that in this round of conscription, the reason why the proportion of recruits in China is relatively high is that under the cover of rich sausages and rich pancakes, the people in China have a high willingness to have children.

Nowadays, many families have more than four males, and they are very willing to let the eldest male join the army, defend Marshal Zhu with arms, and defend the hard-won happy life.

Moreover, the remuneration of the Ming army is high, and being able to join the army is a good thing to honor the ancestors and have economic benefits.

The traditional thinking that a good man should not be a soldier, and a good man should not be nailed, is rapidly melting away.

The reason why the Ming Dynasty allocated fewer conscription quotas in various places, such as Burma, Luzon, and Australia, was mainly because it needed to keep enough strong labor in the local area so as to restore the population faster and consolidate the rule.

Except for the Burmese who were wiped out by the Great Revenge, the Sinicization of other ethnic groups, such as Siam, Lao, Sikkim, Ahong, Chutiya, Kachin, etc., is accelerating.

It may sound contradictory, but in fact, the national dual household registration system implemented by the Ming Dynasty is objectively accelerating the integration process of the Zhuxia ethnic groups.

Daming Zhuka is like a carrot in front of a donkey, attracting all ethnic groups to work hard to learn Daming Yayan and accumulate naturalization points.

And this point can be passed on at a discount.

After all, Zhu Fugui's ultimate goal is to unify Zhu Xia and establish a superpower with the Huaxia nation as the absolute core and absolute subject, instead of subdividing the ethnic groups like the Anza people, enslaving other ethnic groups forever, and being himself a dragon.

Daming currently implements dual household registration in order to eliminate ethnic divisions and ethnic divisions.

As long as they support the leadership of His Majesty Zhu Fugui, are utterly loyal to the Ming Empire, abide by the law and work hard, then at most five generations, all citizens of the Ming Dynasty will receive Zhuka.

And once you get Zhuka, you will all be regarded as compatriots, and there will be no follow-up.

There is no preferential treatment and no discrimination. Honor, disgrace, rich and poor all depend on one's own ability and luck.

People of the Five Generations say whether it is long or short, and it is definitely not short.

The various ethnic groups in Xia, especially the Japanese, Chao, and Yue, who have always learned Chinese and Chinese, and are familiar with Chinese classics, naturally do not want to wait until their grandson's grandson to get Zhuka.

Especially in the three places, like Master Narasa, who got the Great Ming Juka early in the morning, and the Guangzong Yaozu, the returnees are not a minority.

They are the best propagandists of Ming's policy and the most loyal defenders of Ming's glory.

The fanaticism of the so-called converts is vividly reflected in them.

It is such a demonstration effect that Wa Chaoyue has become the most popular place to join the army and serve the court.

In the past two years, [Red Bird] has successively discovered a series of scandals in Wajima, such as taking cards for conscription, and even openly selling the number of kamikaze commandos.

As a result, Xi Yazhou was dismissed from the post of Chief Protector of the Imperial Guard of Wa Island, and transferred back to Daming for another appointment.

He doesn't have a big problem personally, that is, he has eaten a lot of three yellow chickens from his fellow villagers, but there are signs of collapse in the bureaucratic system of the Governor of Wa Island, so he must investigate.

After all, Xi Yazhou has been the governor of Wajima for 12 years, and it is not appropriate to continue to serve.

In these years, Wajima has no industry, no army, and the development of peaches and military tertiary industries. It is basically impossible to listen to the tune and not listen to the propaganda.

What's more, His Majesty Zhu Fugui's reputation is in full swing.

So an imperial decree made Xi Yazhou return to Fengdu in a hurry, and he is currently studying at the Royal Senior Cadre Training School.

In short, this minor turmoil caused by the competition for the kamikaze commando enlistment quota has subsided in the first half of the year.

However, the form of introversion in the army in the three places may not be improved in a short time.

After all, the attraction of naturalization for one person and the whole family is too strong, too strong.

This year, Zhu Fugui also missed a few quotas between his teeth, which increased the number of conscriptions for the special arms of Japan, North Korea, and Vietnam. It can be regarded as trying to give them some opportunities to serve the imperial country.

In this regard, the conscription plan that had been stamped by Zhu Fugui was finally approved, and soon orders were sent from the Ministry of War to the Imperial Military Departments in various parts of the empire in the form of telegrams.

In the autumn and winter of the 15th year of Dewu, Ming did not organize a new large-scale offensive, but consolidated the newly gained benefits in the past two years.

Historically, the expansion of great empires has generally not been in one wave, but by cutting sausages layer by layer.

Daming is of course no exception.

At the end of September, another incident happened.

那就是继德武七年（1869年）新沪奥运会、德武11年（1873年）真定府奥运会之后，德武15年（1877年），第三届世界奥林匹克运动会又如期举行了。

For the first two Olympic Games, one was held in Beiyinzhou, and the other was held in Shenzhou. To put it bluntly, both were within Daming.

So for the third Olympic Games, Zhu Fugui decided to give away the right to host it, even though it was still a vote for the Federation countries to play for themselves.

After research and decision by the Olympic Committee, Cape Town, Africa was selected as the venue for this Olympic Games, which is the home court of Lord Li Shaoquan.

Originally, Zhu Fugui planned to let Xichu bid for this Olympic Games.

After all, it is not an exaggeration for Xichu to say that he is Daming's own son.

But the traffic in Xichu is too inconvenient.

The Ming Dynasty built the Xianbeilia Railway not entirely for the purpose of trade with Europe, but also for the revitalization of the little brother Xichu.

The Ming version of the Xianbeili Railway, because it does not need to guard against the destruction of Britain and "China", can pass through the Mongolian Plateau, so the latitude is slightly lower than that of the Russian version of the railway in history.

The area currently controlled by Xichu is roughly the same group of Stans in later generations.

It's just that there are more Afghanistan and northern Iran, and less northern Kazakhstan. (pictured)

After the Xianbeili Railway is completed, Xichu can build relevant branch lines and join the Mingluo Railway Network.

However, at present, there is no railway in Western Chu, only a standard road from Ili to Almaty, and there are not many concrete roads in other areas.

Such basic hardware is really not enough to support large-scale events like the Olympics.

Even if the importance of this Olympic Games is very low, the specifications have shrunk significantly.

Another factor also made Zuo Zongtang decline the emperor's kindness.

This factor is the same as the reason why Tang Sangui gave up his bid to host the Jerusalem Olympics, that is, although the local rebellious aborigines have calmed down under the saber of Xichu, the hidden dangers are still huge.

Xichu seemed to be sitting on a crater, and if it wasn't for Da Ming's silent support behind it, it would erupt sooner or later.

Now, Prince Zuo is devoting all his attention to solving the problem of China's northwestern frontier problems once and for all, and he really doesn't have much effort to organize the Olympics.

On the contrary, the Olympic Games, which is complicated with things, may instead become an opportunity for young people to take advantage of, and may even lead to a heart-wrenching tragedy.

In contrast, Cape Town in Nantang is a good natural port with convenient sea transportation.

The domestic situation in Southern Tang was also quite stable.

The long-sleeved and skillful Lord Li Jue not only called the Boers brothers and sisters, but even the son-in-law of the Zulu Kingdom repeatedly assured the Southern Tang Dynasty that black people would not go south.

Facts have proved that although Li Shaoquan's morals are not good, he still has abilities.

If you really give him a strong backing, he can really be an "African Bismarck", and through diplomatic mediation, he won a very good living space for Nantang.

Zhu Fugui had nothing to say about this.

Of course, Zhu Fugui would not deliberately suppress the Chinese descendants who took root in Africa, even if they were all descendants of landlord Lao Cai.

And in the final analysis, as a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, Southern Tang had no real diplomatic power.

Li Shaoquan's mediation with the Boers and Zulus had all been reported to Honglu Temple in advance, and the Ming court turned a blind eye.

As long as he dared to contact the European powers privately, the next day the Southern Tang might change.

Of course, with Li Shaoquan's intelligence and tact, he would never do such a stupid thing.

This time, taking the initiative to invite Ying to host the Olympics is also a way of expressing loyalty.

In fact, apart from giving intangible and priceless military protection and political backing, Daming basically no longer provided material assistance to Southern Tang.

Instead, Ming Dynasty began to return blood from the Southern Tang Dynasty through trade.

This is different from Xichu who keeps throwing money into it.

In a sense, Daming taking money from Lord Li to Lord Zuo is a kind of transfer payment in disguise.

The living standards of Huamin in Western Chu could not be significantly lower than those in Southern Tang. This was the political red line that Zhu Fugui had drawn for the Ministry of Household Affairs and Honglu Temple, and all means must be used to ensure it.

……

For this Cape Town Olympic Games, Zhu Fugui is not so concerned.

He did not attend the opening and closing ceremonies of the Cape Town Olympics, but was represented by Yi Guobing, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty.

Even so, Nantang still played with 12 points of energy and held the event with the highest standard.

The military officers of the Yi State are from the second grade, and the Ministry of Rites has always been an important department. In the fourth empire of Ming Dynasty, which was rich in military virtues but chose cultural success, it was the key point, so the soldiers of the Yi State can be regarded as a high-ranking authority.

Although there is no clear official statement, everyone seems to have tacitly agreed to a set of conversion tables for the status of the vassal state monarchs and courtiers of the Ming Dynasty.

The king of Western Chu is the first rank, the same as the three princes.

Lahuatian Wangjue is the third rank, and he is the same as the commander of the major metropolises (deputy in the war zone).

The Duke of the Southern Tang Dynasty is the third rank, and he is the consolation envoy of Luzon, Hawaii and other places.

The twelve kings of Lahua (the thirteenth Taibao except the heavenly king) are the fourth grade, and they are the same as the prefect.

The puppet kings of the Tartar and Song Dynasties had no rank, and even a small official in the Ming Dynasty could spit on his king face to face.

After all, the existence of the Tartar Song Dynasty is due to the mighty grace of His Majesty the Emperor.

Apart from being grateful, how can people from the Tartars and Song Dynasties think otherwise?

As for other foreign monarchs, such as Tang Sangui, Potter, Shang Kexi, Arthur, Hundegong, Sikhhou, Niwang, Qianpaihou, Meihou, Bulber, Irish Daqushuai, Aztec and Maya The princes and other people in various states are about from the fifth rank, the sixth rank, and the sixth rank, and they are the same as the appeasement envoy, the Xuanfu Siqianshi, and the prefect of the state.

There are only two exceptions.

One is Lee Hee, King of Joseon.

Although Zhu Fugui also knew that the 400-year-old pure filial vassal of Lee's Korea had a lot of water, but even if it was to set up a model and set up a memorial archway, Zhu Fugui could not treat Li's badly.

Western Chu was the head of the inner vassal, while North Korea, or Kolima-Korea, was established as the head of the outer vassal.

The king of the Ma Dynasty was recognized by everyone as being the same as the last of the inner domain except the Tartar Song Dynasty-the Twelve Kings of Lahua, and it was also the fourth rank.

Another special one is Princess Sissi, Queen of Hungary.

Although Hungary is not an internal vassal, it has a deep relationship with China.

Princess Sissi herself is also the best friend of the quasi-noble concubine of the Ming Dynasty, so everyone agrees that her status is much higher than that of ordinary foreign princes, similar to the Ma Dynasty.
