Chapter 1286. Tossed for a few years
Damin's strategic plan has clearly changed.
In the trembling waiting of the ministers, Li Jie not only did not order the second sea crossing attack, but disbanded the newly built army of more than 100,000 loyal and brave eight guards, divided the defense area along Asia Minor, and continued to clean up the remnants of the Eastern Roman forces that were still in the northeast corner of Asia Minor and the territory of the historical Pontus Kingdom was struggling to the death, and gathered in Caesarea, the Buddha's house, and the suffocating army of Rhodes began to retreat slowly.
The tension with the Eastern Roman Empire eased suddenly.
Even Li Jie himself carried the harem and exchanged and retreated to Antioch, and in a short period of time, Damin would not launch a second large-scale attack on the Roman Empire, whether it was the tired high-level court officials, or Constantine IV in the Grand Palace of Constantinople on the other side, they were all relieved.
However, soon, these two political groups that were relaxed for less than a moment were worried again, and the hundred officials of Damin were worried that since they had withdrawn from the army, the matter of the king of Min being called the emperor was naturally over, and it was said that it had been prepared by the prime ministers to discuss the merits, and the edict of the reward for canonizing the ministers after the emperor was also shelved.
Many ministers are seventy or eighty years old, who knows if they can survive until the next Fujian army attack, when the king of Min called the emperor a great hero, but the emperor began to become a political taboo in Damin, no one dared to mention it again, and the words could only be held in the stomach.
And Constantine IV's headache is his allies, through the relationship of marriage, Constantine IV is sitting on the Hun leader Cabal of the father-in-law, but the arrogant Huns can not buy him at all, the Roman emperor's account, even the Bolgar leader Simon can not restrain him, the Hun cavalry in the Eastern Roman Empire like locusts, robbing houses, doing all kinds of evil, has experienced years of war, and the Balkan Peninsula plundered by the Arabs has become more desolate under their hands.
Asking the Huns for help was originally to quench their thirst, but now the Huns are destroying the foundation of Constantine IV's rule little by little, but he is at a loss, and he does not dare to offend the Huns at this time.
This is also the reason why Wang Xuance asked Li Jie to wait with peace of mind!
In November of the sixth year of the Great Min Dynasty, after more than a year of conquest, Li Jie once again returned to West Asia, and after a short rest in Antioch, Li Jie directly took the Tigris River, down the river to Ctesiphon, and reunited with Wu Meiniang, who had been absent for almost two years.
However, just when everyone thought that King Min was finally satisfied and wanted to enter Kuma and put Nanshan, Li Jie started a new round of tossing.
First of all, politically, Li Jie unexpectedly separated those Roman senators from the Min court, and removed many people from the court to reorganize a Roman senate, saying that the original eastern provinces of the Eastern Roman Empire, including Asia Minor, Syria, Antioch, and West Mesopotamia, were all under the jurisdiction of this senate.
For a while, Damin actually had two sets of centers, although it was still Li Jie's brain command, and the important ministers and prime ministers still remained in the court, this disposition was still extremely uncomfortable, and there were ministers at both ends of the three days who continued to admonish Li Jie, but Li Jie hummed and agreed, but it was the left ear in and the right ear out, and he didn't take it to heart at all.
As a political compromise, Fengge Luantai can also govern this new senate, a major transfer of political forces, so that the original six Shangshu can only pinch their noses and admit that they have an extra colleague of the same level.
After the central political reforms, Li Jie launched a second wave of tossing, and he issued the largest conscription order in the history of Great Min to Tianzhu and Persia, these densely populated regions.
There is no specific number of recruits, anyway, the target issued by the Ministry of War is how many recruits! One million is not too little, two million is not too much!
As soon as this order was issued, the first one who couldn't stand it was the prince Li Jin, who was in charge of government affairs in Beijing, and His Royal Highness the prince simply threw away the Beijing division, and hurried to Taixifeng to beg King Min to stop tossing!
If the young laborers of Tianzhu and Persia are squeezed out, he will really not be able to do it as a prince of the prison country!
However, when he learned the news of Li Jin's coming, Li Jie actually transferred Li Rang, who had already exchanged fire with Egypt in the Suez Canal, and the father and son discussed in a secret room for two days.
This discussion decided the upheaval of the empire thirty years later, but at this time, none of the three people involved in the discussion revealed a word, so no one knew at the time.
Li Rang returned to the front and continued to urge the Arab tribes to carry out the long and protracted tug-of-war with Egypt in the Suez Canal, and after Li Jin returned to Beijing, he also supervised the development of this huge conscription in various places.
At this time, the Tang people who immigrated to Tianzhu already had a second generation, and in the distribution of social wealth, Damin is still a healthy olive-shaped, extremely rich or extremely poor The two extremes belong to the upper and lower peaks of olives, and the middle layer is still rich, and under the population surge, the land has begun to appear saturated.
After Li Jin returned to Beijing, the policy began to be tightened, slowing down the process of developing the dense woodland in Tianzhu and restricting the land distribution of the "Juntian System".
How can you become a soldier of the Great Min Prefecture and get your own fertile land in the Lianghe Valley or Asia Minor, and wait for Juntian in Tianzhu? Maybe when you are forty or fifty years old, you can get a piece of land, but it is still a barren small piece of land, and the Tang people, who have always been inseparable from their homeland under this policy, have to merge into a huge group of people with the policy.
There is really no specific number of conscripts, anyway, the officials in charge of the transportation of troops on both sides of the canal invented a word, Spring Festival!
In addition to transporting the population from Tianzhu and Persia, Li Jie also recruited troops in West Asia, and then sent them to Nanyang, Southeast Asia and various strongholds in Damin, to defend, in the barren Arabian desert, there are too many poor Bedouin tribes who can't eat enough, and Damin provides military rations, and there is a monthly salary, under the temptation of this condition, many tribes at the bottom of the Arabian Peninsula society also joined Li Jie's army.
Almost 200,000 people dragged their families to the eastern part of the empire, and even reached Fuzhou and Quanzhou.
In the Southern Song Dynasty more than 500 years later, the Maritime Silk Road was developed, and a large number of Arabs had emigrated to Guangzhou and Fujian.
The black miasma of the King of Min tossed in the country, from the top prime ministers to the lowest level of the post chief, Cangcao is all tossing the heel to hit the back of the head, and when he complained, the first person of the prime minister of Damin, Feng Ge made Wang Xuance's resignation, but it was extremely low-key.
The Apennine Peninsula, on the Adriatic coast, has flourished unusually in Huanggang, at the beginning of the seventh century of the Great Min.
A modest fleet cut through the waves, cleared the complex currents, and slowly sailed into the inner harbor of Phoenix Port, which would later become known as the Venetian Lagoon.
With the opening of the Suez Canal and the injection of Pacific trade, the Mediterranean, which has been silent for more than 200 years, seems to have regained the grandeur of the inner lakes of the Roman Empire.
Especially the graceful Mrs. Zhong Huang Zhong, who stomped on high heels in Rome and could cause the city to tremble, also came, such a huge lineup attracted all the merchants to be surprised and fascinated to take a few more peeps.
In the midst of so many big people waiting, this fleet seemed to be unhurried, and traveled around the lagoon force, and then slowly landed, watching the guards set up the landing ladder, and surrounded a middle-aged man with a long body, wearing a traditional Tang silk coat, and a thick and majestic temperament to get off the boat, Chen Zhangming and the others did not dare to slack off, and stepped forward to salute one after another, even Mrs. Zhong Huang Zhong was holding her fists and bowing solemnly.
"The lower officials and others meet the Feng Pavilion Order, the ambassador of the Germanic Dao, the king of the Northwest Daxingtai!"
This is the farthest place that Huaxia's footsteps can reach, stepping on the land of Huanggang, the first step Wang Xuance couldn't help but take a deep intoxicated breath.
Although the official position has been smooth sailing in recent years, and he has won the trust of the King of Fujian, Wang Xuance is still a diplomat in his bones, and he is eager to be like Su Qin Zhangyi back then, with a three-inch tongue to win etiquette for Damin, and now, it is time to realize this ambition!
Full of pride and ambition, Wang Xuance smiled and stretched out his hand heavily.
"Everyone, please get up!"
Germain, I'm here!
