Died of old age, and you tell me this is a life simulation?

Speaking of which, although the Dongming Sect is only an overseas force, it occupies a lot of island territories thanks to its world-leading technology and elite naval forces.

Although it is not truly called a country, it is actually somewhat similar to the political power of a country.

Shan Meixian's daughter, Shan Wanjing, is known as a princess in the sect.

This can be seen from here.

Furthermore, relying on its leading edge and monopoly position, Dongming has accumulated a very strong foundation by sending goods all over the world. Such as wealth that rivals that of a nation, countless supplies, constantly updated core technologies, detailed intelligence from all over the world, sea routes, and so on...

To a certain extent, the benefits that Daqian gained from the Dongming faction's allegiance were actually much greater than if a country on land had surrendered to it.

Although the territory seems far smaller, in fact, the Dongming faction is ahead in all aspects in terms of national strength.

This is already the prototype of maritime hegemony 02!

And now, everything of the Dongming Sect, except for its wealth and caravans, has been given to Daqian!

Of course, it will take time to completely take over the Dongming Sect.

If the Dongming faction was a regime on land, it would be fine and we could just transfer people over there.

However, the Dongming faction is a maritime force, and is relatively far away from Daqian's overseas forces. It is isolated by the ocean, so it is not so easy to govern.

The main reason is that Daqian's deep-sea shipping industry is relatively mediocre. Although it has obtained the shipbuilding technology of Dongming Sect, it will take some time to actually build a large enough fleet. As for requisitioning the fleet of Dongming Sect for use, although this is feasible, it can only be used temporarily. Moreover, one of the conditions that Daqian gave to Dongming was to retain its merchant caravan. Naturally, this maritime fleet is not easy to requisition casually.

But these are actually nothing, they are just difficult to deal with in a short period of time, but a year or two is definitely enough.

By then, Daqian will be able to build a large-scale maritime fleet, not only to absorb the overseas forces of the Dongming faction, but also to put the annexation of other overseas regimes on the agenda.

And in the marine field, we can begin to truly involve, delve into and develop.

The people of Daqian did not have a deep impression of the Dongming Sect. They just knew that an overseas force had surrendered to Daqian, but this kind of thing was no longer surprising.

After all, their Daqian is so powerful that there are people from outside the country who admire their rule and want to submit to Daqian. What's so surprising about this?

The only thing worth mentioning is that the leader of this overseas force is a woman.

However, this is the prevailing custom in Daqian. After years of changing customs, people are very accepting of women being in power.

Overall, this thing was just a gust of wind.

After it was published in the official gazette, there was a lot of discussion for two or three days, and then it gradually died down.

What caught the attention of all the people under Daqian's rule was another major event.

Move the capital!

After more than two years of expansion and renovation, the new capital was completely completed. This also means that Jinling City, which was used as the capital for five or six years from the founding of the Daqian Dynasty to the present, has become a thing of the past.

The center is about to shift to the north.

This is actually reasonable and should be the case.

The territory of Daqian is so vast that Jinling can no longer be said to be located in the south. It is more appropriate to call it a corner area.

If it weren't for the extremely powerful ruling power of Daqian and the absolute loyalty of local grassroots organizations and government officials, big problems would have arisen long ago.

Of course, now that the expansion of the new capital has been completed, the central political center cannot be moved there all at once, and we still have to strive for victory in a stable manner.

During the reign of Daqian, the people who were most excited about the relocation of the capital were naturally the common people in the area where the new capital was located.

From a normal administrative district, it suddenly leaped to become the capital of a country. This brought more than just a title. It was the concentration of resources, culture, and politics of the entire country of Daqian!

How great a benefit will this be for the development of this area?

Just look at the city of Jinling and you can get a glimpse of this.

In just five or six years, the changes have been so great that it can be said that they are changing with each passing day!

The prosperous scene is the best in the world!

The living conditions of the local people are also absolutely top-notch! First!

Who doesn’t want to become a citizen under the rule of the imperial city?

Naturally, everyone was celebrating and excited about this matter, and was filled with joy!

Even before the capital was actually moved, the locals had already started celebrating.

In contrast, the people under the jurisdiction of Jinling City inevitably felt lost and even frightened.

The loss of the identity of a household in the imperial city is not only related to status, but also closely related to one's own interests.

Once the capital is really moved, can the prosperous scene here be maintained?

How much will their living conditions be affected?

These are all unknowns.

Unknown means uncertainty.

It can be said that the mentality of the people of Jinling, which had been stable for five or six years since the establishment of the Daqian regime, changed for the first time, and they felt fear and anxiety.

And you must know that although the people under Daqian's rule all regard His Majesty the Emperor as a god, the only ones who actually witnessed the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth were the two million people in Jinling.

They truly believe and are certain from the bottom of their hearts that the Holy Lord of Daqian is an immortal and a god!

Once the central government moves north and the political center shifts, the emperor will naturally no longer stay in Nanjing.

This actually makes it even more difficult for the people of Jinling to accept.

From this, one can imagine the shock that the relocation of the capital caused to the 660 people.

As for this matter, the Daqian Central Government had already made advance plans. Although it cannot be said to be a perfect plan, it is more than enough to ensure a smooth transition during the capital relocation.

The first step was to establish Nanjing as the secondary capital.

Although this cannot be compared with the importance of previous capitals, it also ensures that it is given high political attention.

Secondly, there is the specific policy appeasement and detailed explanations in the official reports.

By doing this, the people of Jinling quickly regained their peace.

After all, Daqian had leaked the news before, and the expansion of the new capital was not concealed. Everyone knew that the relocation of the capital was inevitable. The people of Jinling were just a little scared about it, but it was impossible for there to be chaos.

It's not just because this is the center of Daqian, a place where the ruling power is absolute, so any chaos is impossible.

Also, given the public sentiment of Jinling residents, it was impossible for any disturbance to occur.

The relocation of the capital is proceeding smoothly.

Everything is in order.

In addition to these two things, there is another important thing that is of paramount importance!

(ps: Asking for custom orders, full orders, flowers, evaluations, monthly tickets, comments, and support~)

Chapter 618: External Expansion! The Collective Will of the Daqian Army!

This major event is nothing else but Daqian's foreign military operations and expeditions!

It has been nearly four years since the policy of recuperation was initially established!

Up to now, the territory under Daqian’s rule has not achieved absolute rule, but it can be said that it has been put on the right track in all aspects!

The territories seized from the Song, Xia, Liao and Jin dynasties were as stable as Mount Tai, and the newly annexed territories were also covered at the grassroots level and policies were implemented.

In other countries, this can actually be considered a great governance.

It’s just that Daqian’s requirements for “absolute rule” are a bit “hundreds of millions” harsh.

So it cannot be said that he is in complete control.

For example, the territory of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty grasslands and deserts is too large and sparsely populated, so it is indeed not possible to manage them in a short period of time.

But in more than a year, Daqian's influence spread to all parts of the grassland and deep into the desert.

There is no need to say much about the territories of other countries such as the Uighurs and Tubo.

The plateau terrain is not an obstacle at all for Daqian, which has popularized martial arts. There will be no negative effects such as acclimatization and difficulty in adapting, and the governance is no different from that of the Central Plains.

As for places like Dali, the grassroots system had been established long ago, and submission was just a superficial form, and absolute rule was soon achieved.

In other words, Daqian is actually as stable as a rock at the moment, except for the relatively weak ruling and controlling power in the peripheral areas!

The "side effects" of expanding territory too quickly in the initial stage have disappeared, and the swallowed territories have been "digested".

During these three or four years of recuperation, although the implementation of local plans required a lot of resources, the harvests continued to be high year after year. In addition, the construction of infrastructure, such as water conservancy projects, the connection of roads across the country, and the continuous development and prosperity of the canal transportation system...

With the support of various favorable conditions, the Daqian treasury has accumulated a huge amount of resources!

The food and fodder are extremely abundant, and the weapons are piled up like mountains!

No matter how you look at it, there are favorable conditions for external expansion!

Not only that, the soldiers and officers from all over the country within the Daqian military system have also been constantly tempered over the years.

Carefully select and eliminate the dross to retain the essence!

Compared to the initial stage of the army, the level of eliteness can be said to be a comprehensive sublimation! Transformation!

The original elite became even more elite!

And what about the new recruits? After a few years, they have all been tempered into elite soldiers and strong generals!

Speaking of which, even if this was the "new" that came later, in terms of cultivation and strength, it was still superior to the original elite!

The original batch of elite troops were formed during the first two or three years of the simulation, but this batch has joined since the beginning of Daqian’s uprising, and it has been five years now!

Coupled with the popularization of elixirs for cultivation, the practice of martial arts will naturally make progress more rapidly!

certainly......

It is undeniable that the initial batch of elite soldiers also grew amazingly, and many of them have now been promoted to middle and high-level generals within the Daqian military system!

In short, Daqian now has numerous elite soldiers and sufficient food and grass, and it is time to use military force and expand abroad!

actually......

This is not only a decision made by the central government, nor is it just Fang Han's will, but also the collective will of thousands of soldiers in Daqian!

Daqian enjoyed peace for several years!

Without war, there is no chance to truly achieve merit!

Apart from clearing out banditry and quelling instability in some newly annexed areas, they were rarely used.

Moreover, the credit for eliminating banditry is relatively limited and can hardly be compared with the merits of pioneering. That is to say, under the rule of Daqian, at this stage, bandits and robbers... are all considered "rare things".

Apart from the first two years after the founding of the Daqian Kingdom, where has the banditry come from now?!

The world is stable, the four seas are peaceful, and the people are prosperous. Anyone with hands and feet can live a much better life than before. Even the lonely and widowed people will be cared for by local officials and grassroots organizations, and will have the necessities of life such as food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Who the hell would miss such a great day and go out to become a thief or bandit?

Besides, even if there are some rebels and thugs who are unwilling to accept the status quo, it depends on whether the soldiers of Daqian agree.

In Daqian, there are countless soldiers who want to make meritorious deeds!

In this prosperous era where "banditry" is a "scarce resource", if anyone is really restless and wants to do something, it won't take long before he is quickly suppressed by the local Daqian soldiers with red eyes!

Sometimes it’s not even their turn to appear, and the local constables in charge of public security can take away these rare “achievements”!

In this way, it is not difficult to understand the strong desire of the Daqian soldiers to expand outward!

Although the world is big, there is really no place for them to use their abilities!

There is absolutely no chance of making any merit.

If I rely on seniority to gain experience, how long will it take?

Not everyone can take the path of relying solely on their own abilities to get ahead.

And one thing is that the founding war of Daqian and the pioneering war were pushed forward too fast!

At that time, most of these "new recruits" were still in training in the barracks, and the most important thing they did was to fight bandits outside.

When I have the opportunity to engage in foreign wars...

Well, it's all over.

The veterans in the army have fought all the battles.

Not only did they win the war, but they also frightened and subdued the surrounding countries.
