The new reform of the military naturally involves establishing a corps-level organizational structure above the division-level structure.

The purpose of establishing a military-level organizational structure is, of course, to make it easier to fight.

Nowadays, the army has more than 100 divisions. When it comes to major battles, it often requires several divisions to coordinate their operations.

Therefore, establishing a military-level organizational structure became an urgent matter.

Moreover, according to Li Xin's idea, the army-level organization should not be limited to infantry divisions, but could also include cavalry divisions and artillery divisions.

Moreover, the number of divisions under the army-level organization is not fixed.

It could be three divisions, five divisions, or eight divisions or ten divisions.

The army-level organizational structure is actually designed for future independent military operations.

In addition to the army-level organization, Li Xin also plans to establish a separate armored division within the Northern Military Region.

The armored division is naturally composed of steel tanks produced by Bureau 903 in recent years.

After several years of development, the technology of the first generation of steel armored vehicles has become very mature, and the 903rd Bureau has already begun mass production.

The first generation of armored vehicles that have recently been mass-produced have all been equipped by the 1st Armored Division, the 2nd Armored Division, and the 3rd Armored Division. These three armored divisions, together with the 1st Heavy Artillery Division, form the 1st Army!

The First Army also became the most powerful force in the army!

Three armored divisions and one heavy artillery division—their firepower is extremely formidable!

It is also the most modern military unit!

After the First Army was formed, the massive troops conducted field training on the grasslands north of Beijing.

One after another, steel war chariots sped across the open field, raising wisps of dust that filled the air.

On the stands, a group of Privy Council generals stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the sight.

"This...this is an iron torrent!"

"If our entire army were a steel torrent like this, I'm afraid no one in the whole world could be our match!"

"Absolutely! Before this torrent of steel, we'll kill anyone who stands in our way, and even gods will be slain!"

"Is no one able to stop this rampage?"

...

In the stands, people were discussing the matter.

Li Xin also held a telescope, looking at the torrent of steel in the wilderness, a bright smile on his face.

Beside him, the cabinet ministers and envoys from other countries were all dumbfounded.

Envoys from Persia, Siam, and other places, in particular, stared wide-eyed in shock.

They were all secretly calculating how long their country could hold out if it were invaded by such a force.

I'm afraid they won't even be able to last a few days!

Such a torrent of steel could easily sweep through even the most sturdy and towering city walls.

Even as the exercise ended, the observers remained in shock.

Upon returning to the capital, these observers compiled their observations into documents and immediately sent them back to their respective countries to be delivered to their kings.

In their documents, they all urged their king not to oppose the Great Gan Kingdom.

The Persian side, in particular, was somewhat glad that they had chosen to stand with the Great Khanate.

While these envoys were busy with their duties, the year Yanning eleven arrived.

With the arrival of the new year, the country has undergone tremendous changes!

The streets and alleys are brightly lit.

Even at night, the colorful lights illuminate the entire capital city, making it exceptionally beautiful.

Wuying Hall.

Li Xin stood in front of a huge map, craning his neck to look at it.

This enormous map is the "Complete Map of the World" recently completed by the Surveying and Mapping Team of the General Staff Department of the Privy Council!

The Great Gan Kingdom is located in the very center and has a vast territory.

At the bottom of the map, a huge island stands out prominently.

"His Majesty,"

Bai Fenglan stood beside Li Xin and said, "This is the Southern Kunlun Mountains!"

Following the direction Bai Fenglan pointed, Li Xin squinted at the large island in the ocean below, which was comparable to most of the Great Gan Kingdom.

Southern Kunlun!

This is also the large island that the Nanyang trading company discovered after it went south to explore the new continent. After surveying it, it was named Nan Kunlun!

In the center of this continent, it is all arid and desert, while only in the southwest there are grasslands and fertile fields.

Therefore, the capital city of the Southern Kunlun Mountains was built in the southwest.

Thanks to the efforts of the Nanyang Business Association in emigration over the past few years, several cities have now been built in Nan Kunlun.

Cities such as South Kunlun City, Wolonggang City, and Coconut Tree City were established one after another.

Nowadays, in the South Kunlun Mountains, besides mining, the pillar industries are animal husbandry and aquaculture.

"His Majesty,"

Bai Fenglan began, “I heard from the Nanyang Trading Company that the South Kunlun Mountains are vast and rich in resources, especially in the arid deserts of the west, where large quantities of high-quality iron ore have been discovered. Currently, the Nanyang Trading Company has established several mining bases and built railways. The mined iron ore is transported to the coast, loaded onto ships, and then shipped to our Great Gan Kingdom.”

"Nowadays, Lingnan Steel Plant uses iron ore specifically from the South Kunlun Mountains. Its annual steel production is very high, and a large portion of its steel products are exported to Southeast Asia and the West."

"Besides mining, the southwestern part of the South Kunlun Mountains is rich in water and grass, and the aquaculture and animal husbandry industries are very developed. The immigrants raise cattle and sheep on the grasslands with basically no management required. Every year, a lot of beef and mutton are slaughtered, dried into jerky, and then transported to various parts of the Great Gan Kingdom for sale. In addition, ice blocks are also being collected in the South Kunlun Mountains in preparation for transporting frozen fresh meat."

"Besides cattle and sheep, some immigrants also brought rabbits to the South Kunlun Mountains. Rabbits have a particularly high reproductive rate, and there is now a lot of rabbit meat in the South Kunlun Mountains!"

Li Xin was slightly taken aback upon hearing Bai Fenglan's words.

He naturally knew what the Southern Kunlun Mountains were.

Their specialty is kangaroos!

Li Xin had also heard about the livestock industry there, including the beef and mutton production.

Nowadays, the people of Daqian live a prosperous life, and the yield of grain crops is very high, enough for the people to use.

With more food available, people naturally want to change their lifestyle and eat more meat products.

Nowadays, these livestock farming operations are naturally intended to improve people's lives.

The distance between the Southern Kunlun Mountains and the Great Gan Kingdom is too great, making it extremely difficult to transport frozen fresh meat.

Ice, in particular, is very difficult to obtain.

Yes, ice cubes!

It seems it's time to find out how refrigerators are made.

Immediately, Li Xin activated the smart technology app and searched for information on the refrigeration principles of freezers, refrigerators, and other similar devices, especially those used in maritime transport ships.

Once these technologies are put into use, people all over the country will be able to have enough meat products to eat!
