"What's wrong?"
Xiao Ruxun couldn't help but ask when he saw his wife, son, and daughter looking at him without saying a word.
"Zhenbang … go to the Military Academy?"
Cai Yun asked Xiao Ruxun, "Is it appropriate?"
"Why not?"
Xiao Ruxun ate a piece of meat, put down his bowl and chopsticks, drank some water, and said, "Last year, I talked about this with some old people in the army. The children in my family are growing up. They are fighting outside all year round and are not at home. I'm afraid that the lack of strict discipline will make them unruly, so they asked me to send them to the Military Academy."
"But isn't the Military Academy only open to students at least 16 years old?"
"That's right. That's why I've thought about it and decided to set up a youth branch of the military academy, lowering the age limit to 12 years old. Currently, we're only letting the children of some high-ranking generals in the military go in. We'll train them ruthlessly, polish them ruthlessly, and shave off the spirit of these little fellows, teaching them how to behave."
Xiao Ruxun looked at Zhenbang.
"I've always been strict with Zhenbang, and you've also been strict with him, not letting him do whatever he wants. However, some generals in the army have repeatedly told me that their children are unruly and unruly. They're afraid that when they grow up, I'll catch them and set them as examples. So, they asked me to think of a way.
After thinking about it, I realized that Great Qin needed their fathers to defend the borders and fight for the empire, so they couldn't allow their children to be disobedient and become delinquents. I loathed the children of officials doing evil things, and they all knew my stance on this.
So, after thinking about it, I feel that this is also a good idea. I'll throw this group of brats into the military academy and let my most trusted, most experienced, and most strict instructors teach them a lesson. Who knows, maybe some gold can be found and sent directly to the military academy in the future. "
Xiao Ruxun talked about his idea and then put his hand on Zhenbang's head. "It's good to let Zhenbang get to know some people. They are all descendants of the generals in the army. I don't rule out some useless people, but there are also some really talented people. Get to know them early and grow up together. In the future, there will be unexpected gains."
Caiyun knew that she couldn't change Xiao Ruxun's decision, so she asked worriedly, "What about getting married and studying? Capital Military Academy is running on both sides? "
"There's no need for that. Ask the selected old pedants to teach in the academy. They'll study in the morning and train in the afternoon. It just so happens that with the old instructor watching them, there's no need to worry about them not being able to concentrate. It'll definitely be beneficial."
Xiao Ruxun made up his mind. Caiyun also felt that it was reasonable, so she didn't object. After eating for a while, Caiyun asked again, "Next year, must you go in person?"
Xiao Ruxun knew that Caiyun was talking about his personal expedition.
Since Ningxia, he and Caiyun had been separated more than they were together. It was not until the three years in Myanmar that they had the opportunity to reunite as husband and wife. After the founding of the country, their days were stable. However, if they were to go on the northern expedition this time, he did not know how long it would take for them to come back and reunite.
Xiao Ruxun nodded.
"This time, I must go in person. Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty personally led the army and started the business. Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty personally led the army to the north five times. Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty also led the army personally. Emperor Yingzong and Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty also led the army personally. There were so many emperors of the previous dynasty who led the army personally. Why can't I?
Moreover, this northern expedition is of great significance. I must take this achievement personally. If I take it personally, Daqin's territory will be as stable as Mount Tai. Daqin's rule will be deeply rooted in the people's hearts and will never be shaken again. The victory of the northern expedition will lay the foundation for the future of Daqin for a hundred years. Therefore, I must go. "
Caiyun looked hesitant.
"I know all this, but Xunlang, if you go, here in the capital …"
Xiao Ruxun knew what Caiyun meant.
"Don't worry, Caiyun. I'll make all the preparations. You just need to wait for my return in the palace. When I come back, I'll bring you the most precious gift on the prairie."
As he said this, Xiao Ruxun said to Zhenbang and Yingying, "Daddy will also bring you the most interesting gift on the prairie."
Then, looking at little Zhenwu who was staring at him in confusion, Xiao Ruxun smiled, "You'll have a share too."
This northern expedition was of great significance. It had a great impact on Xiao Ruxun, Daqin, and the future. Therefore, Xiao Ruxun had to personally lead the army of two hundred thousand to conquer the Northern Barbarians and expand the territory to the limit.
They would try their best to eliminate the enemies they might encounter and clean them up, leaving a safe environment for development in the future.
Xiao Qin was definitely not an empire that was stuck in a rut.
For this war that had been planned for five years, the entire country had worked hard for five years. Five years had been used to fight for this war. So many officials, so many people, and so much effort had been put into developing the country to this point. They were fully prepared for the war.
If these preparations couldn't be used perfectly and turned into a large amount of territory, then Xiao Ruxun would really waste this good situation.
The territory that had been shrinking since Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty had to be taken back.
Those lands didn't seem to have any economic value, but their strategic value far exceeded their economic value. Even if they had to pay a great price to occupy those places, as long as they held them, they could stop the enemy from entering and stop the enemy from entering the country. They wouldn't let the enemy enter and plunder wantonly.
The difference between stopping the enemy from entering and stopping the enemy from entering was definitely not something that could be compared with a sum of military expenditure.
The military expenditure provided to the army or the cost of restoring a certain area after it was destroyed, which was more?
It was because of this economic account that Emperor Qin strongly advocated the construction of the Great Wall.
Once the people's production areas and inhabited areas were destroyed, the economic loss would far exceed the military expenditure.
And those Northern Barbarians who only knew how to plunder and didn't know how to produce, once they went south, they could directly attack the inhabited areas of the Han people and launch a destructive attack on the beautiful northern land that they had painstakingly built up today.
Tens of millions of taels of silver would go down the drain.
Therefore, Xiao Ruxun would never give those guys even the slightest chance to take advantage of her. Not even the slightest.
He would personally lead the troops, and when the Qin Army was getting stronger and stronger, when everything was ready, he would directly destroy their nest and wipe them out. For this, he would not hesitate to exterminate them.
He would absolutely not give them a chance to breathe.
Only by sweeping away these worries, could China develop with peace of mind, fully develop its economy, swallow up the wealth of the world, and build an unimaginably rich and powerful country.
Only then could the generation of Zhenbang build on his foundation and continue to build Daqin.
As for the future after that, it was not something that Xiao Ruxun could know.
He could only do the best he could while he was still alive.
He was worthy of this power and status.
He didn't know where the future of Daqin would go, how it would develop, and what the world would become.
However, he knew that with his appearance, what was supposed to happen would never happen again.
From this moment on, all history was a new history. It was the history he created, the history he defied the heavens and changed fate. The heavy wheel of history was unable to crush him. He gave the era a new destiny and direction.
