In the blink of an eye, it was April.
At the end of April, Li Yanyun gave birth to a daughter. Du Qi named her Du Ya.
Since then, Li Yanyun had a son and a daughter.
At the end of May, Qianxue also gave birth to a son. Du Qi named him Du Hu. Hu meant good fortune. He hoped that Du Hu would be blessed. At this time, Qianxue also had a son and a daughter.
Du Qi had two sons and two daughters, which doubled the number of children. For the court officials, Du Qi had two sons, which meant that the court was really stable. Because no matter what happened, there would be a backup.
Du Qi didn't care about this.
Whether it was Du Ye or Du Hu, they were all his sons.
They were all the same.
After entering June, the weather became even hotter. However, in the palace where Du Qi lived, there was a special artificial ice that could be used to relieve the heat. So everything was fine.
At this time, Xia Xia's adjustment and control of the provinces had reached the maximum. In particular, the bad people began to take root in the provinces and even developed more bad people.
This was Du Qi's control of the provinces.
In addition, Du Qi's control of the Brahmin and Kshatriya castes was still advancing. In Xia Xia's territory, this was forbidden. No one was allowed to call themselves a higher race. The caste system had been dying out day by day. However, the criticism of the caste system had never stopped. Du Qi often arranged for people to publicize the bad aspects of the caste system in various places. At the same time, there were people who specially complained about their own experiences. So, it could constantly deepen the people's impression of the caste system.
In addition, language and writing were still advancing. Now, many people had begun to speak Xia Xia's official language. It couldn't be helped. If you didn't speak in this way, many things would be difficult to do.
Especially when going out to work or doing other business, they were all speaking Xia Xia's official language and Xia Xia's writing. Driven by this kind of interest, countless people quickly changed.
If they changed forcibly, it would be difficult to change.
Driven by interest, the people would spontaneously change. This was the reason why the change was rapid.
In Du Qi's region, his strength had already been consolidated.
Especially now that Du Qi's army had expanded again, the main force of each army was close to 50,000 people. The strength of such an army was, in fact, quite terrifying. After all, an army of 50,000 people was an unrivaled existence for many countries in the Western Region.
On this day, Shangguan Yi entered.
Although it was the end of July and the weather was a little cooler, it was still quite hot after walking around outside.
Fortunately, Shangguan Yi's clothes were thin, so he was fine.
After Shangguan Yi entered, Du Qi asked someone to give him a glass of iced fruit juice. Nowadays, in Tianzhu, there were more fruits, so the variety of fruit juices was even more abundant.
After Shangguan Yi drank the iced fruit juice, he looked at Du Qi and said, "Your Majesty, this subject came today because recently, we have been adjusting the number of troops in the army, and each army has elephant soldiers. This subject believes that this point can be changed. "
Du Qi said, "What do you mean?"
Shangguan Yi said, "The existence of the elephant soldiers is extremely crucial. Even if we have gunpowder and other weapons, the elephant soldiers can charge and break through enemy lines. At least at this stage, this army is quite necessary. Therefore, this subject suggests that we form a separate army and set up a special elephant army to facilitate management. "
Du Qi pondered for a moment and said, "If the elephant army is established, who can be the general?"
Shangguan Yi said, "Once the elephant army is established, it will be the Fifth Army. At present, any army can use the Tianzhu people in Xia Xia, but they cannot be the main general. The main general of each army must be our direct descendants. "
Du Qi said, "Do you have a candidate for the Fifth Army's main general?"
Shangguan Yi said, "It's all up to Your Majesty to decide."
Du Qi thought for a moment and ordered, "Men, summon Xue Rengui for an audience."
The chamberlain went to pass the order, but Shangguan Yi was somewhat puzzled and said, "Your Majesty summoned Xue Rengui. Are you going to let Xue Rengui take up the position?"
Du Qi said, "Xue Rengui is already the main general of an army, so it's naturally impossible to transfer him. Now, Xue Rengui is here because many of the generals under his command are outstanding, and there are people who can take charge of an area on their own. "
After hearing Du Qi's words, Shangguan Yi also stood up and said, "Now that there's nothing else, this subject will take his leave!"
Du Qi nodded.
Not long after Shangguan Yi left, Xue Rengui entered and saluted with cupped fists, "Your Majesty!"
Du Qi nodded and went straight to the point, talking about the establishment of the Elephant Corps. He said, "Currently, the Fifth Army needs a general. Do you have anyone under your command to recommend? "
Xue Rengui immediately said, "Your Majesty, this subject thinks that Vanguard Zuo is suitable."
Vanguard Zuo was a valiant general.
When it came to Tubo, back when they were escorting weapons to Tubo, Vanguard Zuo relied on three thousand soldiers to turn the situation around, making Gonga Tubo's Zangpu and making Tubo fear Du Qi. In many subsequent battles, Vanguard Zuo fought bravely and was very good at fighting.
Du Qi also approved of Vanguard Zuo and said, "Since that's the case, Vanguard Zuo will be the main general of the Fifth Army."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xue Rengui immediately became excited.
He was happy for Vanguard Zuo because Vanguard Zuo was his number one general. Now that Vanguard Zuo could lead an army alone, it was Vanguard Zuo's fortune.
Du Qi waved his hand and said, "Go inform Vanguard Zuo and have him prepare to establish the Elephant Corps."
"Yes!"
Xue Rengui immediately agreed.
After bowing to Du Qi, he turned and left.
Xue Rengui returned to the army and immediately called Vanguard Zuo over. Vanguard Zuo saw Xue Rengui and said, "General, why did you call me over? Could it be that my Xia Xia is going to war with the southern Jiedhi Country? General, I've been looking forward to it for a long time. All the soldiers are looking forward to this battle. "
Xue Rengui said, "It's not about going to war. His Majesty has established the Fifth Army and established a specialized Elephant Corps. Therefore, His Majesty has assigned you the position of the Fifth Army's main general. "
Vanguard Zuo was immediately excited when he heard this. "Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, General."
Xue Rengui said with a smile, "You established the Elephant Corps and have a great responsibility. Especially the battle of the Elephant Corps, it is different from ordinary generals. Therefore, now, you should properly study the battle of the Elephant Corps, as well as the dispatch and arrangement of the Elephant Corps. His Majesty has entrusted you with a heavy responsibility and has great expectations for you. I hope you won't let down His Majesty's expectations. "
Vanguard Zuo said, "I definitely won't let down His Majesty's great expectations."
Xue Rengui said, "Go, hand over the handover, and then start dispatching and preparing to establish the Elephant Corps. In addition, you don't have to worry about the battle. Now that the Xia Xia provinces are at peace, everything is on track. Therefore, I estimate that the battle will start very soon. The earlier you see the Elephant Corps, the earlier you can form a fighting force, and the earlier you can participate. "
Vanguard Zuo was immediately excited when he heard this.
A chance!
He had to participate in the following battle, so he had to see the Elephant Corps' fighting strength in a short time.
