Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 690 Logistics Corps
"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, every time I meet Mr. Tang, I always call you poor and cry poor. Let's see how he calls you poor now."

Du Zele, the Minister of Rites, laughed and said.

"What does it mean to cry for poverty? You are not a family but you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are!"

Tang Yu immediately retorted.

"Master Tang, I know that this family is not easy to manage and needs money. Let's do this. I will leave the gold mining to Xiao Ze."

Lu Hao gave Xiao Yun'er's brother a lucrative job in gold mining.

"Wei minister leads the order!"

Xiao Ze quickly stood up and responded loudly.

"Master Tang, Mr. Xiao is the second-in-command of your household department. Ask him to help you raise money. You will control the mining progress. You won't be poor now, right?"

Lu Hao laughed happily.

"No! Absolutely not!"

Tang Yu responded happily.

Xiao Ze was the newly promoted minister and his deputy. There was no difference between asking Xiao Ze to go, except that going to a remote place in the south would definitely be very hard.

However, after the preliminary construction was completed and the gold mine was officially mined, Xiao Ze was able to take command in the imperial capital.

Seeing Tang Yu and Xiao Ze retreat, Zhang Zhongwei, the Minister of Punishment, quickly stood up.

"Your Majesty, now that the Northern Decision has been made, the Imperial Criminal Code needs to be revised immediately, and local autonomy regulations need to be promulgated. We have already drafted them, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to review them."

Lord Zhang submitted a document.

"Well, you did a good job. The prairie is different from the Central Plains. The autonomy regulations must be suitable for the actual local conditions and indeed need to be revised and introduced as soon as possible."

Lu Hao nodded slightly and praised his work.

"Your Majesty, the security situation in the empire has greatly improved now, and the crime rate in various places has gradually decreased. Many severe sentences need to be adjusted. We have already made a plan, and I would like to ask the Emperor to review it."

Lord Zhang submitted a document again.

"In troubled times, heavy codes are used! Now is a peaceful and prosperous time, and those inhumane tortures should also be eradicated. Leave this matter to Lady Tantai and let her discuss and approve it with the cabinet ministers."

Lu Hao looked at Tantai Mingyue and said loudly.

"Follow the emperor's will!"

Tantai Mingyue responded loudly.

Xu Liting, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, stood up and said loudly: "To inform the Emperor, the Ministry of Personnel has drawn up a new batch of official lists, as well as the list of officials sent by Chief Yan Xi of the Prairie, and please take a look at it."

"Master Xu, Chief Yan Xi should have reviewed this list, right?" Lu Hao asked.

"Yes, Chief Yan Xi has already reviewed it." Xu Liting responded.

Lu Hao said loudly: "Since it has been reviewed, just follow it. As for the new batch of official lists, I believe you have already reviewed it, just follow it."

"Follow the emperor's will!"

Xu Liting responded loudly.

After Mr. Xu retreated, no one stood up.

"Now that you're all right, I'll announce a few things..."

Lu Hao looked around and his expression became serious.

"The first thing is that the Imperial Ministry of War will begin to expand the army. The number of each legion will be increased to 12, and the total number of troops of the four major legions will be expanded to [-]. The training of the army will be in charge of Master Xuanyuan of the Imperial Ministry of War. The training location will be located in Yanshan Camp.”

"All the former veterans with military exploits were promoted and dispersed to the new army as the backbone of the team."

Lu Hao issued the first order.

"Wei minister leads the order!"

Lord Xuanyuan quickly stepped forward to take the order. "Where is Situ Tianyin, the great general of the auxiliary country?"

Lu Hao asked loudly.

"The end is here!"

Situ Tianyin quickly stepped out of the queue and responded loudly.

"Situ Tianyin, the great general of the auxiliary country, will form the Empire Logistics Headquarters from today on. You will serve as the logistics chief of the Empire's Central Army and form the logistics headquarters. The logistics force will be equipped according to the number of people in the Central Army and increased to 6 people."

"Similar to the Central Army, the meritorious officers of the former logistics force were promoted and dispersed to the New Army. As the backbone of the team, military training was handed over to the Ministry of War, and the location was still Yanshan Camp."

"The Logistics Corps has a unit of 1 people. It consists of the Imperial Central Army Logistics Team [-], Logistics Team [-], Logistics Team [-] and [-], which are responsible for the production and deployment of military supplies within the empire. Logistics Team [-], [-], [-], and [-] Responsible for the escort of frontline military supplies."

Lu Hao turned to look at Situ Tianyin and shouted an order.

With the establishment of the Empire's Central Army and Logistics Corps, the Empire's military strength will be rapidly improved, which also indicates that Lu Hao is preparing for a larger-scale war.

All the ministers knew this and were very happy because Lu Hao was moving towards his goal of unifying the continent.

The production of military supplies used to be the responsibility of the National Adviser, but with the expansion of military power, she will definitely be too busy alone.

Therefore, Lu Hao was thinking of transferring the production of military supplies to the Logistics Corps to reduce the pressure on Hengyang City.

In this way, Liu Rufeng can better manage Hengyang City and ensure the rapid development of technological research and development.

"The Logistics Headquarters is located in Hengyang City. Your Majesty, from today onwards, the firearms and ammunition production line in Hengyang City will be handed over to the General of the Auxiliary State. You will only be responsible for various research tasks such as guns, cannons and steam engines."

"Starting from today, the Empire will establish the Imperial Research Institute, with Liu Rufeng, the National Normal University, as the director. It will set up research branches such as steam engines, diesel engines, gasoline engines, steel, cement, and rubber, etc., and build a university town in the east of the Empire as a research institute. The hospital’s reserve talent base.”

Lu Hao turned to Liu Rufeng and said loudly.

"Follow the emperor's will!"

Liu Rufeng and Situ Tianyin responded loudly.

"Your Majesty, all the original researchers, including Mulianqi and others, will be promoted to branch presidents, and their salaries will be doubled. If the research results come out, I will give you a generous reward."

Lu Hao added.

"Wei Chen thanked the Emperor on their behalf!"

Liu Rufeng bowed and thanked him.

"Du Ze, Minister of Rites..."

Lu Hao looked at the Minister of Rites, who immediately stood up.

"Since the empire has just taken over the northern prairie and needs to continue to maintain stability in the north, I do not want to see another war in a short period of time, so I ordered the Hubu Honglu Temple to send an envoy to the Eighteenth Dynasty of the Western Chu Dynasty to express our goodwill to them .”

Lu Hao said loudly.

"Your Majesty, there are eighteen dynasties in Western Chu. Do we need to send eighteen missions?"

Du Ze asked with a grimace.

"You are stupid! One mission is responsible for several dynasties. It should be enough to go to two or three missions."

Lu Hao shook his head helplessly.

"What about the two dynasties we looted?"

Du Ze asked again.

Lu Hao was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, frowned and said, "Forget it, since we have robbed others, let's not go looking for them!"

The Chinese Empire looted the Zheng and Yue states. If they sent another mission there, they might be killed as soon as they got angry.

"Your Majesty, if we send envoys to Western Chu, should the Sui Empire in the south send envoys?"

Du Ze asked again.
