During Liu Kang's expedition to Sichuan, Liu Bu has been rectifying military affairs here in Xiangyang. His main task is to build a new base here and turn it into their strategic support point in the north of Huguang. After going south to Huguang and north to Henan, this can be used as the starting point.

Their so-called Xiangyang Division has always been just a designation, and the weapons, personnel and equipment are not in place. It is very difficult to set up a division. With their current combat effectiveness, a division can deal with the whole province and perform strategic tasks, so the requirements are very high, and they need a lot of weapons, equipment and personnel.

Li Dingguo is a military genius, but it does not mean that it is a talent for internal affairs.

Liu Bu came here personally to coordinate the operation of various departments.

At the same time, Liu bu also hopes that the Ministry of industry can send more craftsmen and equipment to open more Arsenal here, provide them with weapons for Xiangyang division on site, and turn this place into their current strategic support point in the north of Huguang.

Liu Bu had such a plan. He not only wanted to establish a Xiangyang division, but also hoped to form more troops.

The formation of more troops means that more personnel and more weapons are needed, and weapons are the key. In these days, more people are willing to join the Chinese army, but their weapons production can not keep up with the pace.

Although Huang Dong served as the Minister of the Ministry of works and started all the Arsenal under the rule of the Chinese army, hoping to further improve the output, all this is only based on paper, and the output has not soared. The Chinese army uses troops everywhere, and the demand for weapons is extremely large.

At present, the world is not unified. There are still strong enemies in the North who are eyeing the Great Wall. They are ready to build slaves outside the Great Wall, but they dare not release Manan mountain and return to the field. If they have this idea, it is estimated that Chao tingteng will destroy them.

At this time, they got the news that Sichuan was conquered, which made Liu Bu very happy. At least they had another territory and were more confident against the enemy.

Now the situation in the world is a little chaotic. Although the overall situation has entered the time of confrontation between the northern and Southern Dynasties, both sides have many fatal weaknesses.

For example, the striker of the Chinese army has actually been deployed in the northern Zhili area of Cangzhou, which is a distance of several days from the capital of Daming. If we start from here, we can hit the capital in a few days. The essence of Daming's northern part is Shandong and Jianghuai.

However, the south where the Chinese army is located is not entirely theirs. In the south, they mainly control the first line of Hu Guang in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Guangdong, Yunnan and Guizhou in the south are still under the control of the Ming army. Although they completely isolated the connection between Guangdong, Guangdong, Yunnan and Guizhou and the northern Daming after they occupied Sichuan, this land has not been conquered by the Chinese army.

What's worse is that the Chinese army does not have enough strength to conquer this land.

Therefore, both sides have fatal shortcomings. We all want to erase the fatal shortcomings and make ourselves safer.

It is estimated that after spring, the Ming army will go all out to attack Shandong, and the Chinese army must control Guangdong, Guangdong and Yunnan and Guizhou if it wants to gain a foothold in the south.

At present, there is no heavy military group in the whole south that can compete with the Chinese army, but one thing we must pay attention to is the problem of time.

The officials in these places are still loyal to Daming. Given time to these officials, they will also form more legions. The most fear is that some strong people and troops will emerge inexplicably.

Daming has been established for 200 years, and it conducts scientific research every three years. They have trained many talents. These people honestly serve as officials in times of peace and do not show any excellence. However, if they are allowed to adapt to the war and gain a firm foothold, they may become a major problem for the Chinese army.

For example, in the past, Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou were just ordinary people, but the war trained them into excellent generals. Liu Bu worried about whether there would be countless people like Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou under the of the Ming Dynasty, then they would be in great trouble.

So they must take down these places as soon as possible, so as to ensure the safety behind them.

It is because of their Liu family that Liu Bu still faces so many difficulties and difficulties that he dare not take it lightly.

After the Chinese new year, he dared not go back to Nanjing for the Chinese New Year. When his son was born, he dared not go back.

It is worth mentioning that on the same day that the Chinese army captured Chengdu, the news of the birth of Liu Bu's eldest son came out, and the whole Chinese Empire was excited about it, which means the emergence of the third generation of the Chinese Empire.

The third generation of leaders of the Chinese army have been born. Now they are destined to return, the great luck is in hand, and they are all prosperous. In this era, the emerging forces are most afraid of the problem of inheritance.

Big guys have such trust in Daming because it has been handed down from generation to generation for more than 200 years and is still being handed down. If there are no successors in the Chinese army, they are very worried. The emergence of the third generation leader of the Chinese army will send a signal to all the officers and men of the Chinese army and the people, that is, the Chinese army in the next 60 years, Don't worry about his successor, which gives all the soldiers and civilians great encouragement.

When the news came out, the whole country of the Chinese Empire was jubilant. King Liu Yuanqiao called his eldest grandson Liu Yichang, and ordered a reward for the three armies and an amnesty for the world.

The Chinese army is at a critical time. They are still called the Chinese army, which has explained their problems. Liu Yuanqiao and they are going all out to prepare for the founding of the people's Republic of China.

They also learned from Zhu Yuanzhang's way before, first as king of Wu, and then as emperor of Ming Dynasty. Now his prison king has been for some time, and it's time to prepare for the founding of the people's Republic of China.

At this moment, they have not established a state and do not regard themselves as the emperor, which will give the wrong signal to the soldiers who follow them to fight the world. Everyone will think that he has insufficient courage and does not dare to be the emperor. Why should we rebel against you and fight against Daming?

This is almost what people expect, so a large part of the senior officials of the Chinese army, under the leadership of Liu Yuanqiao, quickly accelerated the pace of the founding of the people's Republic of China.

The victory of Sichuan is a great auspicious omen for them. The birth of their eldest son is better exciting news, which makes everyone full of confidence in the Chinese army. They think that the Chinese army can have today because of fate.

The occupation of Sichuan has greatly increased the strength of the Chinese army and become uncontrollable. In the past, although it was called the confrontation between the north and the south, Daming can still spread their decrees from the north to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guangzhou through Sichuan, and can still control these places remotely.

However, as Huguang was occupied by them and Sichuan was occupied by them, they began to isolate the connection between Daming and Guangdong, Sichuan and Guizhou in the south, which became the so-called enclaves.

The people, soldiers and civilians in these places have no way to hand over their food and taxes to the imperial court. They have no way to bathe the emperor's grace and follow the instructions of the imperial court. Anyone can say so. From that moment on, they have almost become children without parents.

It can be said that when the peaches are ripe, the Chinese army can pick them. The hateful thing is that the Chinese army does not have enough strength and strength to pick these peaches.

These are the four provinces and the important places of strategists. They can't send only 10000 or 20000 people to wipe out these places. At least 100000 troops have to be sent out.

In order to conquer Yunnan, Emperor Taizu sent General Fu Youde and led 300000 troops to fight. Moreover, he only attacked a place in Yunnan. If he wanted to take several provinces, it was estimated that more troops would be needed.

Although Daming has lost control of these places, it does not mean that these places have completely become Ownerless and have no power to resist them.

Like other places, the decline of imperial power and the power vacuum were occupied by local giants in the twinkling of an eye.

For example, many people have found that local giants were always suppressed by the imperial court and dare not mess around. Now the imperial court has been isolated by them. The Liu family has successfully established their own kingdom through rebellion. Since the Liu family can rebel and establish their own kingdom, why can't they do it themselves?

There are many local forces with this idea, which can't blame others. It's mainly because the Liu family revolt was successful, which created a very bad example and brought a very bad head.

Others believe that princes and generals would rather have seed? After fishing, a man surnamed Liu can revolt and become an emperor. A petty official of seven grades can revolt and become an emperor. Why can't we who are better born?

And now it is the Ming Dynasty that has lost its deer, and the world is driven by it. All aspiring heroes in the world should shake their clothes and wave their swords to pursue their own glory and wealth, rather than serving the Liu family officials and being the Liu family's dog.

Under this idea, I don't know how many heroes and local heroes are ready to move in the four provinces of Southwest China.

If the Chinese army can pacify these places and eradicate these local forces in a short time, it can maximize the vitality of the place. If they are not able to pacify these places in a short time, but make the local forces bigger, it will become difficult to conquer this place in the future, and they will face an even worse situation, that is, being attacked by the north and south of the Ming Dynasty.

At present, there is no force in the south that can compete with the Chinese army. It refers to the power of the imperial court. If these local forces are calculated, it is hard to say, so Liu Bu has been worried about these problems.
