Xiao Ruxun first announced the responsibilities of the eight clans before announcing the commander of the clans.
After the names of the commanders of the eight corps were announced, the commanders of the eight corps of the Daqin Empire were all born. At the same time, the supreme military commander group known as the Eight Pillar Nation was born.
At this moment, the generals all had different expressions.
Some were excited, some were touched, and some were frowning in silence.
The ones who were excited were, of course, Zhao Hu and the others. They knew that they were about to shoulder great responsibilities and that they had the possibility of advancing further in the future. They were very happy.
There was also Liu Chi, he had never thought that he would be appointed as one of the Eight Great Commanders, becoming one of the Eight Pillar Nations, and controlling an army. He was a surrendered general, but he had actually obtained such a position.
Moreover, Guanzhong's position was very special. It was at the frontline of the future war. Although it was said to be logistics, could it be that when the war started, they would have to go to the battlefield?
Liu Gu's face lit up with joy, and he almost danced with joy.
Li Rusong was also very happy. He did not expect to be appointed as the commander of the capital region army with the largest number of troops. The Emperor was too generous to him, and this made him very excited.
The one who was touched was Deng Zilong. Before he retired, he had actually obtained the first position among the Eight Great Commanders. He had even obtained the title of Pillar of the Nation. It could be said that he was extremely honored. To be able to receive such treatment in his declining years, the old general could not stop crying.
As for Ma Wei, he was frowning silently.
Although he had expected it, he did not expect the Emperor to make his move so quickly. Although he was one of the Eight Great Commanders, although he was also one of the Eight Pillar Nations, the Southeast Army, regardless of whether it was the military strength or the station, meant that its responsibility was to defend and not to fight.
Japan had been destroyed, and Nanyang had been subdued by Xiao Ruxun. The main task of the Southeast Corps was to develop the islands and build the local area. There was no other task.
If he were to take up the post like this, he would not be able to fight in battles or make any contributions. In the future, he would not even have a chance to participate in the northern expedition. Wouldn't that prove that from now on, this was the only way and that there would be no other way to advance?
Had the Ma family already reached this point?
Ma Wei looked at the high and mighty Emperor Xiao Ruxun with a complicated expression.
How did the mighty and extraordinary General Xiao, who had once talked and laughed with him, become so strange and distant?
Wasn't this loner a little too thorough?
However, Ma Wei didn't dare to say anything. Looking at the other seven's happy faces, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only immediately kowtow and express his gratitude. He also swore that he would be loyal to His Majesty and fight for His Majesty and Daqin for the rest of his life.
Next was the arrangement of the eight corps deputy commanders, as well as the arrangement of the generals and deputy generals of the various armies. The more detailed arrangements would not be announced here. After that, the people from the Ministry of War would issue an edict to announce it. After that, it was the matter of personnel transfer and reorganization.
Xiao Ruxun had been thinking about the strategic reorganization of the eight corps for a long time. This move was to break up some of the small factions that had existed since the time of the Zhennan Army.
And during this period, he would gradually insert the graduates who had received a complete education in the military academy, letting them enter the grass-roots of the army to control the troops.
The students of the military academy were all loyal supporters of the royal family. They were Xiao Ruxun's fans. Compared to these generals who were the pillars of the country, the students of the military academy were more loyal. This was exchanged for the ideological education they received in the military academy every day. Xiao Ruxun had long planned to use them to completely complete the leap of the Qin Army into modern times.
From the current half-traditional and half-modern army, they would completely step into the era of the new army. They would become a strong army that could truly be reformed with tradition, possessed strong combat power, and would not easily decline.
Of course, the most important thing was loyalty. Through the input of these grass-roots officers who had received a complete ideological education, they would directly affect the largest number of grass-roots soldiers. Through the control of the grass-roots soldiers, the Qin Army would be firmly in the hands of the Emperor, and would not become the private army of any general.
No general could control their own power in the army. The army was Xiao Ruxun's, the Emperor's, and no one else's.
This would never change.
While this grand conferring ceremony was being carried out, the civil officials of the former Ming Dynasty, led by Wang Xijue, finally realized that this was the real ceremony to confer meritorious contributions to the founding of the Daqin Dynasty. The one more than a year ago was not. That one was just a prelude, used to deceive people. This was the real thing.
In order to make the Daqin Dynasty more stable, the Emperor had arranged his plan at this time. Before this, anyone who could possibly oppose or influence the Emperor had already been killed by him.
Now, those who remained were his puppets, his henchmen. No one dared to oppose, and they did not know how to oppose. Seeing the power of the army growing stronger and stronger, and the administrative officials becoming slightly weaker, they did not know what to do.
Some people were happy about the grand ceremony, and some people were worried. However, there would always be an end. After the end, everyone returned to their own homes to report the good news and the bad news. Xiao Ruxun and the officials still had more work to do, to be busy.
For the Emperor, there was no rest day, and there was no time for him to finish all his work.
Li Rusong was different. He was now full of joy. He drank a little more at the banquet, and on his way home, he felt like he was floating in the clouds. He was very happy.
Back home, Li Rusong did not forget to greet his father, Li Chengliang, and report to him about his great achievement of making the Li Family stand up again. After hearing this, Li Chengliang blinked his eyes and sighed.
"The Li Family stand up again? Silly boy, when you can use half of your ability on the battlefield to become an official, your father will be able to die in peace. "
Li Rusong did not understand what Li Chengliang meant.
"You still don't understand? You and Chai Guozhu are the commander-in-chief and vice-commander-in-chief respectively. Both of you are generals who surrendered at the last moment. Emperor Xiao clearly placed you in this position to keep you under his watch. Do you think the Emperor will let someone else take over the army stationed in the capital region? "
After hearing Li Chengliang's words, Li Rusong seemed to realize something, but he still felt that something was wrong.
"If that is the case, then what is the use of the Imperial Guards? There are a total of 150,000 Imperial Guards! "
"Which Emperor would think that he has too many soldiers in his hands and needs to reduce them?"
Li Chengliang raised his cane and gave Li Rusong's head a good whack. "This is clearly him trying to control the name of the army. Just watch, other than you and Chai Guozhu, if there's anyone in the army that you're familiar with, I'll call you father!
Still want to stand up? Under the eyes of Xiao Ruxun, under the eyes of the Emperor, you still want to stand up and cause trouble? Even if you don't want to live, I still want to live for a few more years! You'd better obediently stay here! "
Li Rusong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized the same thing as Li Chengliang.
"I … …"
The joy in his heart suddenly disappeared, and the little bit of pride that had just risen in his heart suddenly disappeared.
This is not the Daming Dynasty, the father and son can no longer fly freely in the sky and swim freely in the sea.
This is the Daqin Dynasty.
