…

After nearly two months of conquest, almost all the rebellious forces in all prefectures and counties in Yan were wiped out by the Jinwu army, and Cai still completely recovered the seven prefectures in Yan.

Not only that, because the Song army was beaten by the Liao army, many of the Yan brave soldiers who had relied on the Song army were dispersed in that battle, and then fled into Yanshan, such as Dong Panger, who had surrendered to the Song State and named Zhao Xu by Zhao Ji, and Zhang Guanyu, who had led tens of thousands of troops to surrender to the Song army not long ago, all led the remnants of the headquarters to flee into Yanshan.

Shortly after Cai still captured Yanjing, he raised a banner of recruitment at the foot of Yanshan Mountain. At the same time, he sent many people from the Song Jiang rebel army and people from the Fang La rebel army to Yanshan Mountain to recruit surrender.

Now, whether it is the Song Jiang Rebel Army or the Fang La Rebel Army, they are all doing well in Cai Shen. Many of them have been involved in the top leaders and are awesome, such as Song Jiang, Wu Yong, Guan Sheng, Zhang Qing, and Hua Rong. They have now become one of the top groups of people in Cai Shen's power.

There is such a clear example before. All the Yanshan righteous heroes believe that Cai will not always believe in them like Liao, Song and Jin. They have always been guarding against them, calculating them, and not giving them the opportunity to enter the top leadership.

In addition, now that the Song army was defeated and was defeated by the Liao army to Hebei, Yan Yun has obviously become the territory of Cai Shen, who has a strong combat power. In this case, there is no better choice for the righteousness in Yanshan.

Therefore, as soon as Cai still set up a banner of recruitment, more than a dozen rebels immediately came to surrender.

Among them are many rebels of a large scale.

For example:

Dong Panger led nearly 30,000 volunteers to join Cai.

Zhang Guanyu is also in a similar situation to Dong Panger. He brought more than 10,000 volunteers under his jurisdiction to join Cai Jian.

In addition, there are rebels in the Liaohai area, including Wu Chitian, Yunjia, Haijia and other rebels, each of which has 10,000 or 20,000 people.

In the eyes of the Han people in the Song Dynasty, the Han people in the original Liao Kingdom (mainly referring to the Yanyun area) belonged to the Fan race. From the emperors, scholars and officials to the people, they all called the Han people in the original Liao territory as "leaders".

Therefore, the Han people in the original Liao territory were not recognized by the Han people in the Song territory, which led to them being discriminated against, distrustful, and humiliated. This is an important reason why many Han people in the original Liao territory, including many civil and military bureaucrats of the former Liao Kingdom who had already defected to the Song Dynasty and finally chose to betray the Song Dynasty and surrender to the Jin Dynasty in the historical Song-Jin War.

Like Dong Panger, Zhang Guanyu and others who have surrendered to the Song Dynasty, they actually feel this kind of discrimination.

But in Cai Shen, there is no such discrimination at all.

For these rebel soldiers, from Cai Shen, everyone in the power of Cai Shen was treated equally, and they screened them completely according to their own standards for recruiting new troops, selected the strong obedient ones, and then trained recruits and political education. Those who were screened were distributed to the land and allowed to be good people again.

In this way, within two months, Cai still received another 50,000 reserve service.

In addition to the 20,000 elite troops and 100,000 reserve troops brought by Liu Qi and Wang Yan, Cai still has a total of nearly 300,000 troops.

In this way, Cai is still inevitable to carry out a new round of military expansion.

but--

During this expansion of the army, Cai still did not choose to expand the existing army, but divided the existing army into half, and used as a skeleton to build ten armies - the gaps separated by each army were supplemented with new recruits.

Because the ten armies were born again, ten senior generals were inevitably born again.

All of these ten senior generals were selected by Cai Shen himself, and almost all of them were generals with great military achievements. They are:

The new army, with a population of 10,000, the commander: Liu Qi.

The New Second Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the agency: Wang Yan.

The New Three Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the agency: Wu Lin.

The New Fourth Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the agency: Yang Zheng.

The New Five Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the agency: Guo Hao.

The New Sixth Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the agency: Zhao Li.

The New Seventh Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the agency: Zhao Yi.

The New Eighth Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of Li Yanxian.

The New Ninth Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the agency: Wang Gui.

The New Ten Army, with a population of 10,000, was the commander of the regime: Jie Yuan.

After the establishment of these ten armies, not to mention the 70,000 to 80,000 new army that were still trained in the New Recruitment Office and the Political Department, there would be 250,000 active troops in Yundi alone. If the 50,000 troops in Taiwan (personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, personal guards, and personal guards, after defeating the enemy, You Yi's army, Tiger Angry Army, and the navy were transferred by Cai, they would also expand the army, each army was expanded to 10,000), including Cai still had a total of 300,000 elite troops.

Not only were there many soldiers and generals wide, but he almost swallowed two-fifths of the Great Liao Empire, Cai still obtained a large number of soldiers and war horses.

In addition to obtaining many soldiers and war horses from the Great Liao Empire, Cai still obtained a lot of soldiers and wealth from the Song Dynasty. In the era of Zhongshidao, due to insufficient military sound, the Song army on the front almost mutiny. Because of insufficient military power, the front-line generals lacked confidence in victory. Taking advantage of previous experience, when Liu Yanqing led his army north, Zhao Ji opened the sealed treasury and brought a large amount of gold, silver and wealth to Liu Yanqing, and prepared a large amount of soldiers and armor for Liu Yanqing. As a result, the more than 500,000 army led by Liu Yanqing was defeated thousands of miles. These soldiers and weapons and wealth first fell into the hands of the Liao army, and later they were captured by the Jinwu army that defeated the Liao army.

In short, Cai Shen’s 250,000 army was not a mob, but an elite soldier armed to the teeth, with nearly 100,000 cavalry alone.

As soon as Cai Lan's strength was exposed, both the Song Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, and even the Xixia and Dadan tribes were a little panicked, and the senior officials of various countries were all worried!

You should know that the so-called Dajin actually has only about 300,000 troops, which is comparable to Cai Shen's strength.

However, the Song Dynasty had a million troops, but the combat power of these million troops was, it would be fine if I didn’t mention it.

With Cai Shan's strength exposed, the international situation changed suddenly.

Almost everyone was watching. I wonder if Cai was still preparing to go north to compete with the rising Dajin, or was preparing to go south to swallow the Song Dynasty, which had already shown its decline, or first annex the weak Xixia?

As Cai Shen's strength emerged, the officials and people in Yanyun land gradually developed a sense of belonging.

This also includes those who did not agree with Cai Shen's ambitions, and they also began to accept that Cai Shen had become the overlord of the side.

In this case, a sound suddenly appears.

This voice is that Cai should still ascend the throne and become emperor.

Cai still felt that he had only won the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and one Taiwan, and was pitiful and weak, and was not qualified to be emperor.

But Cai’s subordinates don’t think so.

You should know that at that time, Wanyan Aguda only had a small place, and 20,000 troops, he ascended the throne and established the Feng Kingdom.

Yelu Chun only occupied the seven states of Yan and the three states of Pingluanying, with tens of thousands of people and horses, and was also called emperor.

Today, Cai still owns the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and the Baodao Taiwan, with 300,000 elite soldiers. He is much stronger than Wanyan Aguda and Yelu Chun when he became emperor. Why can't he be called emperor?

Moreover, Cai Shen's power has developed to this extent. A small marquis is no longer enough to distinguish Cai Shen from his subordinates.

In addition, Cai still did not call himself emperor, and Cai still had no choice but to follow the rise of the river.

This made many people feel itchy.

The key point is that Cai still did not become emperor, and he was always unfair. When the envoys such as Hu Yanqing and others went to the Great Jin Dynasty, they didn't even know how to introduce themselves.

In short, whether Cai still wants to do so or not, the matter of his ascension to the throne has become increasingly serious.

Some people even started to talk about the country name.

All dynasties in ancient China did not regard "China" as their country name, and they were also commonly known as China.

In short, "China" cannot be regarded as a national name. As long as it enters the Central Plains, its country will be considered China.

Cai's forces did not enter the Central Plains, and they could not use "China" to claim themselves.

Since "China" cannot be regarded as the national name of the Tsai power, then the Tsai power must have a national name, right? You can't always call it Yan Yun, right?

As soon as the voice of discussing the country's name appeared, both the officials of the Cai Shang power and the people of the Cai Shang power were working together.

Some people say that "Wu" is the country's name when Cai is still born.

Some say that "Wei", the place where Cai still made its fortune, was named the country.

It is also said that Cai can still give up a country name without sticking to the past.

In short, there are many kinds of things to say.

This matter has been discussed to this extent, which shows that it is the will of everyone.

So much so that Cai still had to face it.

There was no choice but to gather a group of civil and military officials under his command and asked straight to the point: "Now, everyone wants me to ascend the throne and become emperor. What do you think?"

As soon as Cai Shen finished speaking, Zuo Qigong stepped out and said, "With the current situation of the Marquis, it is inevitable to be called emperor. The Marquis should follow the trend."

Xiao Ang looked at Zuo Qigong who was ahead of him with a hatred, and then he also went out and said, "Marty, today, if you don't become emperor, why do you command the world?"

Wu Yong then left the list and said, "If the name is not correct, the words will not be smooth. Marquis, it is time for you to be emperor."

Next, hundreds of people stood up in a row, all of whom were persuading Cai to ascend the throne and become emperor, and he was very interested in advocating him to advance.

but--

Cai is still not affected by these people.

Cai still looked at Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others and asked, "Do I be the emperor?"

As soon as Cai Shen said this, everyone looked at Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others.

No need to look at them, Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others also know that those who look at them must have bad eyes. They also know that once they oppose Cai still ascends the throne and becomes emperor, they will definitely be isolated by these people.

Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others are all extraordinary people. They are actually not afraid of being isolated by others, and they are also brave enough to express different opinions.

But as the absolute top leader of the Cai Shen's power, Cai Shen's humble ministers, there are some things that Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others cannot deny with their eyes open, otherwise they would have let down Cai Shen, who has always trusted and reused them.

And this kind of trust and reuse cannot always be present. If Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others really disappointed Cai, there would definitely be someone who replaced them.

Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others knew this well.

So, when Cai still asked, Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others were collectively silent.

Seeing this, Cai still said, "You don't need to take it into consideration. At this critical moment, I need different voices with wisdom, so that I can make wise choices."

Cai still said with great sincerity: "Actually, I don't want to ascend the throne and become emperor now. I want to build high walls, accumulate grain, and slowly become king. I want to be the chief governor. What do you think?"

Seeing that Cai Jian was so sincere, Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others were impressed by Cai Jian's mind. You must know that not everyone can resist the temptation of ascending the throne and becoming emperor, and then they finally relaxed.

Li Gang, Li Guang, Chen Gongfu and others looked at each other.

Finally, Li Gang sighed, then went out of the crowd and said, "Now, it is no longer appropriate to be called the Grand Commander with the power of the Marquis. It will limit your development of the Marquis. Being an emperor... is an option, and another option is..."

Before Li Gang could say what he wanted to say, Lu Jie suddenly ran in from outside the hall and said, "Mr. Marquis, something big happened..."
