Lord Moyu was forced to open

Liu Jin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stood up to report the report:

"Your Majesty, apart from the garrison troops in various places, the border troops and the garrison troops in the capital, the total force available in Bianjing is about 500,000 regular soldiers.

Among them, the cavalry includes dragoons and Zuowu cavalry, totaling 100,000 cavalry, but these 100,000 cavalry alone are nearly 300,000 auxiliary troops.

In addition, of the remaining 400,000, 300,000 are regular troops, and the last 100,000 are the Shenji Battalion.

Within a hundred thousand miles there are ten thousand artillery battalions, twenty thousand divine fire flying crow battalions, thirty thousand musketeers and forty thousand sword and shield bearers. "

The 300,000 regular troops Liu Jin mentioned include the White Tiger Army, the Black Tiger Army and the Zhuhuai Army.

The rest of the population has been added over the years.

Not only has the military garrison in Bianjing not decreased over the years, it has also increased year after year. This is also the reason why Bianjing's military expenditure has remained high.

The courtiers tried to persuade the court to reduce its troops, but Zhao Jun blocked them all.

Now, let alone anything else, the total number of troops in the Gyeonggi area around Bianjing Imperial City is close to one million.

The cost of such a huge force has caused the Ministry of Household Affairs to complain every year.

But Zhao Jun persisted.

In addition to the 400,000 regular and auxiliary troops that Liu Jin mentioned just now, there are nearly 200,000 imperial troops stationed to guard Bianjing. They will not leave Bianjing except for major events.

"Five million troops..."

After listening to the report, Zhao Jun lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and ordered: "From now on, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, the Privy Council, the Military War Bureau, and the Tiangong Academy are fully prepared!

After the spring, I will send out 450,000 regular troops and 200,000 auxiliary troops. Except for 50,000 heavy cavalry, all other troops that can be mobilized will be sent to the Xiongnu steppes!

Doesn’t the Huns want to play?

good! I will play with them!

Sweep the entire Xiongnu grassland, push all the way across the western grassland and even the Northern Turkic Royal Court!

At all costs, let these unscrupulous people know what will happen if they offend Da Song! "

As soon as Zhao Jun said these words, it caused an uproar in an instant!

Officials from all over the DPRK objected one after another!

"Your Majesty! No! No! Send nearly 700,000 laborers on an expedition!
Countless amounts of food and supplies will be consumed during this period!

I, Da Song, have been fortunate to have a few years of stability, and I have finally accumulated a little bit of information.

But you must not let it go down the drain because of a moment of anger! "

"Your Majesty! With nearly 700,000 troops, such a journey is unprecedented! How can it be possible? Please think twice!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!!!"

This decision caused a fierce reaction in Manchuria!
Except for the military commander.

In contrast to the civilian officials, the generals became excited when they heard that there was going to be a war, and it was such a big war.

In the past few years, the country has been stable. Except for the Prince of Zhenxi who led the White Army to fight for half a year this year, the other troops have been idle!

I have been looking forward to the war for a long time.

Without fighting, where would the merits of their generals come from?

Previously, His Majesty had heard rumors that he would mobilize 50,000 men to garrison in the Western Regions to defend against the Huns and Turks.

As a result, the southwest war was put on hold before the troops were mobilized. Unexpectedly, the Huns and Turks started to cause trouble.

Now it seems that a big war is about to begin, and the generals are all gearing up.

Nowadays, most of the generals in the court were brought over by Zhao Juncheng from Yunzhou County. The former generals in the court were all ineffective. Except for a few who stayed, most of the others failed to pass the military examination and were sent away. job or the defendant has returned home. Seeing that most of the civil servants in North Korea and China did not agree with this war, they immediately became anxious.

Although they also felt that some of the civilian officials were right, the food, supplies, weapons, etc. required for such a large-scale military operation must be a huge amount, and the formation of such a long distance is also a huge problem for a large army expedition. A problem, but...

What does this have to do with them? These are all things that civil servants need to consider. As generals, they only need to think about how to fight well.

As for other matters, it is up to the civil servants to find a solution. If they cannot handle it, then there is something wrong with their ability, and they have nothing to do with us?
Immediately, a military general stood up to refute the civilian official. The civilian official was already angry and the two sides immediately quarreled.

The noisy military generals found that they could not outsmart the civilian officials in terms of talk.

As a result, the situation gradually got out of control, and the quarrel gradually evolved from a verbal argument to a physical argument.

As expected, the fight broke out in the court hall.

Looking at the messy scene in front of him, Zhao Jun's face darkened.

Seeing His Majesty's ugly face, Wang Huaien coughed quickly and yelled: "Quiet!"

He yelled loudly with anger in his Dantian, immediately silencing the chaotic court hall.

Only then did they realize their impoliteness in the court and quickly stopped, but the officials from the civil and military classes still disliked each other.

After Zhao Jun saw that everyone had quieted down, he said coldly:

"Keep arguing, keep arguing, keep fighting! Keep fighting, if you can, kill one or two, and I will collect the bodies for you.

Now the Huns and Turks have invaded our territory and are attacking our Western Region Protectorate of the Song Dynasty. As officials of the imperial court, you do not want to take revenge.

On the contrary, you still prevent me from taking revenge. What kind of mentality do you have? "

Cui Wen hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want your Majesty to send troops, but the army of nearly 70 is too much?"

Zhao Jun said with a cold face: "There are many, not many, this is to beat them all at once! To kill them all!

Just hit him with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches!

Without enough troops, how can we teach these cheap barbarians a profound lesson?

Is it really like playing a game with them, hitting them again and again, and hitting them every time they provoke you?

Now the Song Dynasty is at its peak, and I am also young.

We, the Song Dynasty, have the strength to fight them. If we leave them until the future, we will wait until the Song Dynasty can live up to its current prosperity.

When the kings of later generations are not capable enough, they will be a serious problem for the Song Dynasty.

Since I have the ability to solve them all at once, I will never leave these hidden dangers to future generations! "

Speaking of this, Zhao Jun immediately thought of Yao Qing and Japanese pirates in his previous life!

If the Ming Dynasty had killed all the wild boar skin clan when it was strong, how could there be any wild boar skins later?
If the Japanese pirates had cleared out any of the broken islands when they first showed their ambitions in the Tang Dynasty, how could there be Lu Chen in Shenzhou later?

A painful lesson taught him that threats must be nipped in the bud when he is strong!
When you can push flatly, don't pull with the opponent!
Pulling and pulling, you may end up being overturned by the other party!

He shook up all the egg yolks in the other party's house with a quick shake!
He didn't believe it, just like this the enemy could come back from the underworld to make a comeback! With his eyes firm again, Zhao Jun announced the final result directly in the court!
"I am not discussing with you now, but informing you!

If you don't want to, you can resign on your own, I will never keep you! "

Seeing that His Majesty was so firm on sending troops, all the officials could only bow in unison after a moment of silence.

This is the majesty of an emperor who has military power in his hands and speaks of the Constitution of Heaven! One word and a word!
