After the reorganization of the Daqin Army, there would be eight new armies.
Northwest Army, Southwest Army, Liaodong Army, Southeast Army, Lingnan Army, Guanzhong Army, Capital Region Army, and Jiaolong Army.
Northwest Army was stationed in Gansu, guarding the border.
Capital Region Army was divided into two, one was stationed near the capital of Zhili, and the other was stationed in Nanjing to suppress the south.
Guanzhong Army would become the logistics base of the Northern Expedition in the future, stationed in the Guanzhong area.
Liaodong Army was naturally needless to say, stationed in Liaodong, expanding the territory to the east and north.
Southwest Army would be mainly responsible for the land reform and stability in the southwest region, stationed in the three provinces of Jiangxi, Yunnan, and Sichuan.
Southeast Army's main task was defense, stationed in the three provinces of Southeast and Taiwan.
Lingnan Army would be responsible for guarding the two provinces of Guangdong and Guangxi, and would also be responsible for controlling Hainan Island and other islands in the South China Sea, assisting with the navy stationed in Luzon.
Jiaolong Army would be stationed in several naval bases, responsible for protecting the Daqin Sea.
Currently, Jiaolong Army's commander, Jiang Dahai, Southwest Army's commander, Zheng Ying, Liaodong Army's commander, Liao Zhong, and Northwest Army's commander, Zhao Hu. The commanders of the other four armies had not been decided yet.
The commanders of Southeast Army, Lingnan Army, Guanzhong Army, and Capital Region Army had not been decided yet, but the commanders of the lower corps had been decided, and the organization of the Imperial Guards had also been decided, so the biggest task now was to decide on the commanders of the remaining four armies.
In this expedition against Japan, Li Rusong had made the first contribution, Ma Wei was the commander, and he was the second. Chai Guozhu, Wu Weizhong, Luo Shangzhi, Li Rumei, Li Ruzhang, and other generals had also made great contributions, and were all worthy of promotion.
In addition, there were Qi Dayong, Liu Chi, Ma Yun, Ma Hu, Ma Jin, and other Ma family generals waiting to be promoted and rewarded.
Xiao Ruxun had been worried about this for the past few days.
However, from the looks of it, the four commanders who would bear the greatest responsibility in the future had already been selected, and the remaining four were the more important supporting corps. However, they could not be careless in terms of the selection of candidates, and they needed to think about it carefully.
Li Rusong was a capable person. He dared to fight and charge. After entering Qin, he was honest enough and knew how to survive. His personality was much more restrained.
Xiao Ruxun was the one who captured the Japanese royal family alive, so it would be inexcusable not to reward him. However, if he were to leave the capital, Xiao Ruxun would not be at ease. After much consideration, Xiao Ruxun decided to give him the position of commander-in-chief of the capital army.
Aside from the Imperial Guards, the capital region army was the strongest army army. Consisting of six field armies and one cavalry army, it was the strongest and had the highest status. However, because it was stationed near the capital, it was under the Emperor's control.
Xiao Ruxun was still a bit worried about Li Rusong being sent out. If he were to be placed under his nose, not only would it make sense on the surface that the Daqin Emperor would treat his meritorious subjects generously, but in private, Xiao Ruxun could also arrange for his trusted men to be low-level and middle-level generals. He could even arrange for Li Rusong's assistants to be his own people.
Unless there was an imperial edict, Li Rusong could not mobilize any troops.
This was the effect that Xiao Ruxun wanted to achieve. Once this effect was achieved, everything else was not important.
He gave him a position and put restrictions on it. In this way, in the eyes of others, Li Rusong became the commander-in-chief of the First Army and had a high position. However, in fact, he knew his own situation very well.
Xiao Ruxun wouldn't give him anything more. These things were already enough for him.
And his two younger brothers would at least get the position of a divisional general. The Li family needed to be supported.
Correspondingly, to treat the Ma family, Ma Wei, who currently had the highest position and the highest military service, would be arranged by Xiao Ruxun as the commander-in-chief of the Southeast Army. He would be responsible for guarding the rich land in the southeast and developing the islands in the southeast and Taiwan. He would be mainly responsible for construction work instead of fighting.
At the same time, the children of the Ma family would be divided by Xiao Ruxun and scattered to different positions in the eight armies.
It was difficult to connect them in the south and north.
In this way, the position of the Ma family in the army, which was a little too big to change the situation, would be limited and difficult to continue to develop. Moreover, in the future northern expedition, Xiao Ruxun would not use Ma Wei anymore. He would only appoint a few children of the Ma family with less experience.
If Madam Ma was smart enough, she would obediently accept this assignment and wouldn't cause any trouble. If they weren't smart enough, Xiao Ruxun didn't mind helping them improve their IQ a little.
Hopefully, they were smart enough.
The commander-in-chief of the Lingnan Army, Xiao Ruxun intended to hand over the meritorious old general, Deng Zilong. He was about to retire, but at the beginning of the northern expedition, he gave Xiao Ruxun a lot of help.
When Xiao Ruxun launched the northern expedition, he firmly suppressed the local resistance forces in Yunnan and other places, creating a stable rear for Xiao Ruxun. This was very significant for the success of Xiao Ruxun's northern expedition.
He hoped that after retirement, he could give the position that should be given to him to his two nephews. But in Xiao Ruxun's view, an old general who had spent his life in the army, did not desire the last glory?
Give him the final glory, let him retire with satisfaction, and then retire in a glorious manner. That would be the best reward for him.
As for the last Guanzhong Army, Xiao Ruxun intended to hand it over to Liu Gu. He would let Liu Gu be the commander-in-chief of the Guanzhong Army, responsible for creating a good logistics environment for the future northern expedition. At the same time, Liu Gu would also be ready to go into battle as the second echelon of the northern expedition.
The Southeast Army and Lingnan Army were, in fact, the construction army with the more important tasks of garrisoning, development, and construction, while the other six army divisions were the more important tasks of war preparation. The future of the Daqin was still war, not peaceful development.
It was not the time for peaceful development. The eastern part had almost been expanded, and the southern part had almost been taken care of. Next, it was time to develop north and west, to take back all the territories that had been lost, to make the territory complete, and to benefit future generations. This was what he should do as an emperor.
The victory ceremony and the reward ceremony were held at the same time. Xiao Ruxun gave the meritorious generals a very grand welcome ceremony, and then announced the rewards to them. After that, it was the announcement of the naming of the eight major army divisions after the reorganization of the Qin Army, and the arrangement of the main generals.
This was what the generals were most concerned about. When they were celebrating Xiao Ruxun's birthday, a group of generals were summoned back to attend this appointment ceremony. After that, they would begin the comprehensive reorganization of the Qin army, breaking up and reorganizing the establishment. It was indeed not easy to have a scale of hundreds of thousands of people.
The returning generals were all guessing what position they would be assigned to. They were very much looking forward to what kind of rewards they would receive.
Compared to the rewards at the beginning of the founding of the country, it felt like the current rewards were the real rewards at the founding of the country.
Xiao Ruxun didn't waste any time and quickly announced it.
The Qin Army was reorganized into eight major armies and the imperial guards. The total number of regular soldiers was one million. Excluding the 150,000 imperial guards, the other eight major armies had a total of 850,000 regular soldiers.
The Commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army, Zhao Hu, was awarded the Pillar of the Nation.
Commander of the Guanzhong Army – Liu Chi, awarded the Pillar of the Nation.
The commander-in-chief of the capital region army, Li Rusong, was awarded the Pillar of the Nation.
The Commander-in-chief of the Liaodong Army, Liao Zhong, was awarded the Pillar of the Nation.

Ling Nan Army's Commander in Chief – Deng Zi Long, awarded the Pillar of the Nation.
Commander of the Southeast Division – Ma Wei, Pillar of Honor.
Commander of the Navy's Wyrm Army – Jiang Dahai, awarded the Pillar of the Nation.
