Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

At this high-level military conference, the Imperial Supreme Command quickly finalized several important matters.

The Daqian Zhenguo Army formed a punitive expeditionary force to be responsible for the recapture and suppression of rebellions in the five provinces of Jizhou.

It is expected that no fewer than fifteen armies will be drawn from the army to assist in the campaign against the rebels.

From the matter of the Imperial Supreme Command forming the Expeditionary Army.

This allows you to clearly convey a key point to the outside world.

That is—the Daqian side has a very clear definition of this war: for the Daqian Zhenguo Army, this is a war to punish the rebels.

This is a domestic matter of the Great Qian Dynasty. The Saluo people and the Yi people supporting Zhuo Yongwang are taking advantage of the situation and interfering in the internal affairs of the Great Qian Dynasty!

The commander-in-chief of the anti-rebel legion is Cao Hanfei, a high-ranking general produced by the system.

The Daqian Navy will mobilize at least two aircraft carrier fleets to provide maritime support for this war of suppression against the rebels.

The recruitment drive has been fully launched, and the recruitment of a total of 700 million new soldiers will be completed within three months with high quality and quantity.

For the Great Qian Empire, with a population of 20 billion, recruiting 700 million young and able-bodied soldiers who meet the recruitment standards of the Great Qian Zhenguo Army within 3 months is not a difficult task.

In other words, three months later, the regular army of the Great Qian Zhenguo Army will reach a scale of 1000 million.

In addition, in order to deal with any unfavorable situations that may occur in the future.

Shen Moshen also officially issued a national militia training order in the name of the Empire's Chief Minister.

Each county must register and report a certain number of militia reserves.

The militia will regularly undergo relatively systematic basic military training.

When needed, and the Empire issues a mobilization order, the militia reserve will be immediately transferred to the regular army as a priority supplementary force.

Maintaining a sufficient number of militia reserves is also an important means of rapidly replenishing high-quality personnel during wartime.

After all, this can greatly reduce the training time for new recruits, enabling the replenished forces to quickly take on combat missions on the front lines.

If a war really escalates to the point where militia and reserves need to be mobilized.

Therefore, this seemingly insignificant advantage could very well become a crucial factor influencing the final outcome of the battle...

Therefore, the implementation of the militia reserve system was quickly put on the agenda and entered the implementation stage.

Because Shen Moshen knew better than anyone else that this war against the rebels was likely just the appetizer for the real challenges facing the Great Qian Zhenguo Army.

Once the Western Luo kingdoms have recovered, the true threat to the Great Qian Empire will officially begin...

Moreover, Shen Moshen had already realized a problem.

That is—although there has never been a world-class war in this world, the military strength of the major powers here is generally quite formidable.

At the very least, based on the data obtained from the secret intelligence agency, the military strength of the Western Luo countries is definitely quite formidable.

Moreover, they were all eyeing Daqian, this "fat piece of meat," drooling and ready to dig in at any moment!

Therefore, the latest analysis from the Imperial Supreme Command's Strategic Analysis Office is that the economic collapse sweeping across the Western Continent will subside or end afterward.

The Western Luo kingdoms will definitely do everything in their power to attack the Great Qian Empire.

Faced with the rapidly rising Great Qian Empire, they would no longer hesitate.

The Western Luo Kingdoms quickly reached a consensus due to the changes in the Great Qian Empire—to launch the war of partition that they had long wanted to start!

By then, this war over how to divide the Great Qian Empire will inevitably escalate into a world war..................

The Imperial Supreme Command's Overall Strategic Analysis Office pointed out.

If it weren't for the economic collapse that plunged the Western Luo kingdoms into turmoil, the constant forced resignations of powerful figures, and the escalating internal factionalism and popular unrest that left them unable to attend to the situation in Daqian,

Seeing how quickly Shen Moshen led the rise of the Great Qian Empire and the strength and lineup of the Great Qian Zhenguo Army, one can see the power and influence of this achievement.

It seems that now, it's not just the Sharo and the Yi Kingdom that are taking action against the Great Qian Empire!

-------------------------------------

"Zhuo Yongwang was quite frightened this time. He put on such a grand ceremony for the flag-changing ceremony, but he almost got shot dead."

"After the incident, the entire city of Jicheng was locked down."

"The Jicheng Garrison Command mobilized its entire force, deploying tens of thousands of troops to turn Jicheng upside down!"

"Wu Huaiyu, who was most valued by Zhuo Yongwang, was also severely scolded for this incident and was ordered to make a public apology."

"Wu Huaiyu was very confident in his security arrangements, so from the beginning he believed that there must have been a mole within their ranks that led to the attack on the ceremony."

"It wasn't until afterwards that I received a report from my subordinates that the shells were launched from outside the warning area."

"Undeterred, Wu Huaiyu even went to the site himself to inspect the mortars that had already been destroyed."

After repeated verification and inspection, Wu Huaiyu reluctantly admitted that the security measures he had personally devised had failed...

Chen Guyan, head of the secret intelligence bureau, reported the latest situation of Zhuo Yongwang to Shen Moshen in the study of the chief's mansion.

“It’s clear that Wu Huaiyu is a very arrogant person.” Shen Moshen smiled. “However, we can’t blame Wu Huaiyu for not arranging adequate security measures.”

"How could he have imagined that the secret intelligence agency's undercover agents would possess mortars with a range exceeding 5 kilometers...?"

“I reckon Wu Huaiyu never even considered the possibility of a mortar that could fire that far!” Ge Daqiang chimed in, “Although Wu Huaiyu is Zhuo Yongwang’s most capable henchman.”

"But that's entirely because the senior officers under Zhuo Yongwang were either bandits or outlaws before they 'reformed,' so their overall quality was questionable."

"The best of a bad bunch is the one who stands out, which makes Wu Huaiyu, who only studied in a foreign country, stand out from the crowd."

"If you ask me, Wu Huaiyu's arrogance and sense of superiority are entirely built up by the group of 'half-baked' people around him!"

"Education Director Ge's analogy is spot on!" Shen Moshen laughed. "Standing among a group of 'half-full cups of water,' Wu Huaiyu, who is 'half-full of water,' does indeed stand out."

"So, that's why he became Zhuo Yongwang's most valued person!"

"The fact that the quality of the confidants surrounding Zhuo Yongwang is generally not high is actually a good thing for us."

"If Zhuo Yongwang really had a few 'all talk and no action' people giving him advice, that would be a real problem!"

"It's not that bad people are bad, it's that bad people with education are scary..."

"By the way, with the situation so tense in Jicheng right now, have all the secret intelligence agency's brothers who were infiltrated in Jicheng been safely transferred out?"

"General Xie is very understanding. All personnel involved in the operation have been evacuated through pre-arranged channels."

"The rest of the personnel remained in hiding, and the messages that needed to be sent out were not delayed at all."

Chen Guyan was very confident in the efficiency of the Secret Intelligence Bureau: "The Jizhou station reports every day, and basically nothing that happens on Zhuo Yongwang's side can escape the notice of our informants!"
