The First Tyrant of Daxia

After he finished speaking, he stood up and almost made the decision.

The ministers knelt down and shouted, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"..."

Soon after, the court was dismissed.

Qin Yun walked out of the Taiji Hall with the gait of a dragon, followed by his trusted ministers.

Xiao Jian, who had calmed down, could not help but ask, "Your Majesty, will the Turks really go to war when they cross the border? I think it is best to hold off for a while and wait until we are fully prepared before fighting them!"

His words were quickly recognized by others.

Don't be afraid of fighting, but be prepared in advance.

Qin Yun turned around and smiled: "That was just for the civil and military officials to hear, so that they can be mentally prepared."

"In addition, we can only be strong when facing the Turks. If we show weakness, we will face greater provocations."

"The most important point is that I never intended to attack the Turks first. Everything is just an illusion."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in shock.

"Wha, what do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, didn't you just say..."

Qin Yun stopped and turned back to explain: "It would take several years to fight the Turks, and it would also cause great damage to our vitality."

"By then, Xiliang will have grown up again."

"My thoughts have never changed. The Turks are in defense, while Xiliang is in attack. To fight against foreign enemies, we must first stabilize the country!"

"As for what I just said, including the letter to the Turkic Khan, it was just confusion."

Xiao Jian's eyes lit up. Could it be that His Majesty wanted to pretend to attack the Turkic opponents and then turn around and launch a surprise attack on the struggling Xiliang?

Everyone's expression was very uneasy after hearing the most crucial piece of news: to attack Xiliang!

Qin Yun then waved his hand: "This matter must not be disclosed!"

"Yes!"

Many confidants responded seriously. When they came to their senses, they felt that it made sense and their eyes were full of admiration for Qin Yun.

"By the way, Xiao Jian."

"How is the training of the new recruits going? I have been busy these days and haven't asked about the situation." Qin Yun said.

Xiao Jian smiled mysteriously, cupped his hands and said confidently: "Your Majesty, in three days, I will let you see 230,000 different troops!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I was shocked when I saw that group of new recruits last time!" Mu Le's eyes widened, as if he was still shocked.

Qin Yun's mouth corners rose unconsciously. Using modern methods to train soldiers and conduct daily exercises, the quality of the army would surely be greatly improved.

He was secretly looking forward to it!

"Well, in three days, the inspection will be left to you."

Xiao Jian cupped his hands: "Yes!"

"Also, ask Xuan Yunzi to come over. I have something important to discuss with him!"

"Yes!"

"..."

Three days may be said to be long or short.

During this period, Qin Yun had issued secret orders to Pancheng and other places, ordering Yan Zhong and others to be on high alert and be tough to the end!

He concluded that the Turks would not dare to actually take action, so he told people not to worry about anything. If the Turks dared to cross the border, they would be driven away or killed!

The seven cities of Zigui and Yizhen were to be sealed off.

In a word, we must not show weakness and must act as if we are ready to go to war with the Turks at any time.

At the military training ground outside the imperial capital, preparations for the military parade are in full swing.

After the Turks repeatedly crossed the border, the army's anger was unprecedentedly strong. Everyone was eager to go to the battlefield, defend their country, and kill all the Turkic bandits!

The night before the military review, it was stormy and rainy.

In the imperial study in the deep palace, Qin Yun met with the first batch of students from the Martial Arts Hall, including some talents promoted by the Hero Pavilion.

There were more than seventy people in total.

Each of them is outstanding, strong and sturdy, and you can tell at first glance that they are not ordinary people!

Especially their eyes, which have a youthful spirit that is amazing and admirable.

The lights flickered and the atmosphere was low-pressure.

Qin Yun was dressed in a black dragon robe, looking calm yet domineering. The dragon on it was sewn stitch by stitch by Concubine Xiao Shufei, Dou Ji and others.

He scanned the seventy-odd young faces and said, "Now that the Central Plains is finally at peace, the martial arts ban in the martial arts world is also being further improved. This can be considered the first step of success."

"But Xiliang is still plagued by internal troubles. In the south, the Turks are preparing their weapons, and in the north, there are the Xiongnu and Jurchens. To put it bluntly, the empire is still in turmoil."

"I feel a lot of pressure!"

"After the martial arts performance tomorrow, most of you will go to the border to strengthen the defense line. I called you here tonight because I want to talk to you."

"Speaking of which, you are all my students. I hope you can do something great and not bring disgrace to the Martial Arts Arena and the Hero Pavilion."

Upon hearing this, more than seventy people knelt on one knee in unison.

Uniform and extremely respectful.

He said loudly: "Your Majesty, we dare not forget your teachings, and we will repay your grace with our iron blood and loyalty!"

"Even if I die, I will never lose the border!"

Qin Yun was very pleased. Looking at them was like seeing the future of the Great Xia Army. "Very good. Until now, I have never promoted you, nor have I given you any preferential treatment."

"Today is the time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than seventy people looked up at the same time, their expressions expectant.

I saw several eunuchs holding wooden tables coming up to them and distributing a token.

The token is simple and made entirely of iron, with the words "Emperor Sheng" engraved on it.

In short, the Emperor's student!

Everyone was shocked and their breathing became heavier. Even their blood began to boil when they saw those two words. This token symbolized the supreme honor!

"This token does not have any special privileges, but I hope you will not let it gather dust, but pass it down from generation to generation so that future generations can admire it!"

"Yes!!" everyone roared, shaking the earth.

The phrase "passed down from generation to generation and admired by future generations" has driven them crazy, and they are not afraid even if they die on the battlefield!

For them, honor is more important than gold, silver and jewelry!

Qin Yun turned around, picked up another file, and read it directly.

"Gongsun Zhongmou, please accept the title!"

Gongsun Zhongmou's face was stern, but he was not surprised. After the martial arts performance, he would go to the border to guard the line and lead the troops for sure.

He shouted loudly: "I am here!"

"After discussing with the cabinet, I have appointed you as the commander of the 13th National Guard Tiger Guards, commanding 12,000 men!"

The National Guards consisted of 230,000 new soldiers, commanded by Xiao Jian.

It was divided into eighteen legions, each with 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers, including a commander, lieutenants, and counselors...

Many new institutions and names were decided by Qin Yun, because the previous titles were too complicated and difficult to remember.

It is much simpler to divide the legion in this way.

"Yes! I will go through fire and water to live up to your majesty's appointment!" Gongsun Zhongmou roared, his face flushed. After a long period of experience, he has been reborn.

Xiao Jian and the veteran generals from Fengxin standing by all cast admiring glances at him.

Qin Yun continued to read: "Wu Bing, He Cheng, you two will serve as the left and right deputy generals of the Thirteenth Legion. You must obey the orders of the commander and make no mistakes!"

The two were delighted, as they didn't expect that they would be promoted to deputy general of the legion for the first time.

"Yes!"

Qin Yun quickly read out, "Han Polu, you will be the commander of the Fourteenth Army, leading 12,000 soldiers!"
