    I scroll a sleepy shoal 664 Royal Garden.

    Zhao Han flipped through the front-line report sent by Tainan, but he really didn't care about Zeelandia City.

    Two thousand Datong troops are stationed in Chixian City, and the Taiwan fleet goes on patrol every day.  The Dutch in Zeelandia couldn't go ashore or go out to sea, so they were all held back on the island.

    Even the Han people in the residential area, who thought they were good at water, secretly left the island at night and swam to the shore to join the Datong army.  These Han Chinese are not all the hooligans of the Dutch, many of them just work on the island, such as barbers, shoemakers, tailors, cooks and so on.

    More and more Han Chinese escaped from the island, and those with poor water skills also ran away. They removed the door panels and rowed to the opposite bank.  .

    Until the end, the Dutch sent troops to guard and forbid anyone to leave.

    However, the soldiers had already lost their will to fight, and those Dutch soldiers were too lazy to guard and patrol.  They took out their stocks one after another, smoked and drank while on duty, and guarded like a sieve, and the Han people ran away within a few days.

    On the entire island, only the Dutch and slaves remained.

    No one to shave their heads, no one to repair their shoes, no one to clean up their shit.  The castle and ghetto stinks, and the little arable land is lying waste, and the slaves are useless.

    If this continues, even if the Dutch don't starve to death, they will be suffocated.

    "Bring a pen." Zhao Han said.

    Li Xiangjun immediately brought a pen and paper.

    Zhao Han wrote an order and handed it to the female officer in charge of rituals: "Let the cabinet be transferred to the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion."

    This order is very simple, let Li Dingguo go to the north to train a cavalry division after the spring of next year, and Huang Fei will be transferred to Taiwan to take over the post of division commander.

    There is a reason for the transfer and transfer.

    It was his teacher who transferred Li Dingguo to the south, with the most Fujian and Guangdong native places.

    Transferring Li Dingguo back to the north means expanding the army again!

    When fighting on the grasslands, cavalry is very important. Currently there is only one pure cavalry division, and Zhao Han decided to train a second one.  War horses are enough. There is an official horse farm in Liaodong, and the Mongolians on the grassland have often gone south to sell horses in the past two years.

    Before, there was not enough food, and a large number of immigrants consumed too much, so the army had to save some money.

    ?Next year, it will be slowed down. In Shandong and Henan provinces, the land tax reduction and exemption period has passed, and the land tax will be collected in full next year.  Moreover, the Datong Bank in the north, and the money and food exchange points are gradually spreading, the population of Shandong and Henan provinces is also enriched, and more and more abandoned land is reclaimed.

    Shandong and Henan have recuperated for several years, and finally blossomed and bore fruit.

    Zhao Han even guessed that the actual population of these two provinces must have exceeded the previously reported numbers, and many people who hid in the mountains came out again.

    In addition, each division of the Datong Army will increase to 11,000 people next year.

    The increase of 1,000 people can probably be understood as a regular engineering unit.  In addition to being an engineer, they occasionally acted as civilian husbands, helping to transport luggage and so on. They were also in charge of the military convoys-before they were paid to recruit farmers and soldiers to do things.

    This kind of arms is also available in Daming, and they are selected from the army.

    For those military households in Ming Dynasty, the eldest son was a soldier and had military membership.  The other brothers in the family are designated as military surplus, and they can find things to do on their own.  But if there is a war, some soldiers will have to be recruited to help the main soldiers carry armor, help the main soldiers wash clothes, etc., and even serve as auxiliary soldiers.

    In addition, another 3,000 elites were selected from each army, and recalled to Nanjing to serve as the imperial guards. The number of emperor's imperial guards reached 5,000.

    After the military reform next year, together with the newly formed cavalry divisions, the number of regular troops nationwide will be close to 250,000.

    If you count the inspectors in the provinces, excluding the urban police force, the total strength is about 400,000.  Like the police, most of the inspectors are veterans. They are mainly slightly disabled and slightly older soldiers. Their combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the regular army.

    In the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi, the number of patrol soldiers is very large. To put it bluntly, it is to prevent the remnants of chieftains from causing chaos!

    Continuing to expand in the north, to be honest, Zhao Han is not enthusiastic, because the time is not ripe.

    Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's previous Northern Expeditions, you will know that the first two hurricane advances, due to the unstable foundation in the north, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stopped after learning the lesson.  At that time, the north was completely destroyed, and there was not much population at all. All the military supplies had to be transported from the south, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive.

    Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang immigrated to farmland in large numbers, and after eight years of operating in the north, he began the third Northern Expedition.  This is much easier, the population in the north is more substantial, and it is also convenient to collect civilian husbands and military rations on the spot.

    The situation Zhao Han was facing at this time was similar. The population in the north was too small, and even if the grasslands were knocked down, it would be difficult to hold them.  Even if you can keep it, you still have toCan't forget?  "Zhu Cihong said depressedly.

    Auntie Zhu said: "It's not that I can't forget it, it's that I'm discouraged."

    At that time, Zhu Cihong was still studying at Jinling University, and Mr. Li came to Nanjing to visit relatives.  Once, Zhu Cihong took Zhu Aimee and met Mr. Li while visiting a bookstore.

    Talented and beautiful, fall in love at first sight.

    After Mr. Li left Nanjing, he still kept correspondence for a long time, saying that others would not dare to marry the princess of the former dynasty, but he, Mr. Li, would dare to copy his family and exterminate his family, and he would return to Nanjing to propose marriage soon.

    Suddenly, the communication was cut off, and there was no more audio.

    There is a high probability that Mr. Li explained Aimi Zhu's identity when he asked his parents to send someone to propose marriage, and then everything came to naught.

    Aimee Zhu has been waiting for a letter from the other party for a year, two years Just last year, a letter finally came, but Mr. Li has already married a wife, so she told Aimee Zhu not to wait any longer.

    Since then, Auntie Zhu no longer trusts men, thinking that men are big pigs.

    Zhu Cijiong suddenly said: "It's fine for my sister to marry His Majesty, anyway, Dad agreed at the beginning."

    Zhu Cizhao became anxious immediately: "How can I do that. My mother is His Majesty's concubine, so is my sister also His Majesty's concubine?"

    "That's right, it's out of order." Zhu Cijiong scratched his head, looking not very smart.
