Liu Zheng briefly described the idea in his heart to Zhang Zhongjing.

Of course, he did not directly say that his purpose was to form an army, but told Zhang Zhongjing that he wanted to improve the medical environment of the cottage, so that more teenagers could learn medical skills, and at the same time inherit Zhang Zhongjing's mantle.

As soon as Zhang Zhongjing heard that Liu Zheng had chosen a child to study medicine with him, and Zhang Zhongjing was able to pass on his medical skills to more people, he didn't even think about it, and directly agreed.

"This is the case, in my school, there is a special course on medical skills for my husband, and I want to hire my husband as a medical professor to teach medical skills."

"Okay, yes, no problem, I'm willing to come to your academy as a professor."

Zhang Zhongjing agreed here, and Liu Zheng's face immediately smiled, what he was most worried about was Zhang Zhongjing, if he didn't agree, then his school plan would not be easy to implement.

Now that Zhang Zhongjing has no problem here, then there will be no problem on the other side.

In this school, he doesn't need to have many courses like modern society, he only needs to have a few simple courses.

There are Huang Zhong as the professor of archery, Xu Huang as the professor of horsemanship, and Gan Ning as the professor of martial arts. Then let Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, and Su Fei be their deputies respectively.

135 practiced horseback archery fighting, 246 Yuan Zhou taught these students to read and write, and Zhang Zhongjing taught some simple medical skills.

At the same time, Zhang Zhongjing selected some people alone and followed him around the clock to learn medical skills.

These students are only recruited from 14-18 years old, after all, only teenagers can accept new knowledge faster, and at the same time, it is easy to cultivate.

The students of the first phase do not need too many, based on a hundred people, and then the survival of the fittest, in a year or two, these teenagers can directly join the army of Liu Zheng's restructuring and serve as the chief and the chief.

Of course, the official positions above Qu Chang will still be held by Liu Zheng's cronies.

After having these ideas, Liu Zheng didn't stay long in Zhang Zhongjing's place, and soon gathered his generals and told them about his idea.

Liu Zheng didn't say it in detail, but those people didn't have any opinions.

Especially when it comes to reducing soldiers and horses and only taking elite people, they have no opinion, after all, now Liu Zheng's side is no longer the Yellow Turban thief before, they have a stable territory, which is more like the model of bandits.

It's like a small country, and it really can't continue to follow the previous system of the Yellow Turban Army, as long as it's a man, you can treat him as a pawn.

Moreover, they also agree with the restructuring mentioned by Liu Zheng, and there is no objection.

That's it, while everyone has no opinion.

Thus was established the school.

Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, Gan Ning and others began to choose the address of the school, started construction, and decided to complete it in a month, and when spring begins, students can be enrolled.

At the same time, the restructuring of the armed forces also began in earnest.

The matter of military restructuring is a relatively important matter for the current Liu Zheng, the Mingyue Cottage. Because there were originally 30,000 soldiers and horses here, but now it is necessary to eliminate most of them and reduce half of the manpower, which may cause dissatisfaction among others.

So this matter can only be done step by step.

Liu Zheng first asked these generals under his command to go down first to ask the men and horses under his command, and some of them were unwilling to continue to serve in the army.

First weed out those who wanted to live a stable life, and then those who wanted to continue to serve in the army, and from among these people, continue to choose.

Most of Liu Zheng's 30,000 soldiers and horses are young and middle-aged laborers, because along the way, if they are older, they have already lost their lives in these dozens of battles, and those who can stay are either lucky or really have some ability.

The older people among these people really don't like to join the army, in fact, no one likes to join the army, everyone is a farmer, and they just want a stable life.

Immediately after Liu Zheng's restructuring method was passed on, a small number of people withdrew from his military system.

Liu Zheng did not embarrass these people who quit, on the contrary, he also gave them a severance fee that was not very generous.

Let them continue to stay in the cottage and open up the wasteland for farming, and only need to pay a certain amount of taxes to Liu Zheng's cottage every year.

At the same time, those who stayed began to follow Liu Zheng's previous requirements, and those who met the requirements stayed and focused on training.

Those who do not meet the requirements are either physically disabled, too old to serve in the army, or not suitable for life in the army.

Liu Zheng would ask the other party again and again, if the other party was determined to join the army, he would not be dismissed, and if his willpower was not strong enough, he would give him a relatively large sum of money to let them leave the army.

In this way, half of the 30,000 soldiers and horses were cleared.

There are more than 17,000 people left, and they have become the most elite people under Liu Zheng's command for the time being.

These horses, according to the types of troops restructured in the army before Liu Zheng, began to allocate troops, and began to establish squads.

The distribution of troops is not difficult, because cavalry and archers have been differentiated from before, it is nothing more than that there are more places for sword and shield men and pikemen, and there is not much difference between these two arms, it is nothing more than a heavy armor and a light armor.

After assigning the team of these horses, they began to re-select the official positions of Shi Chang, Tun Chang, and Qu Chang through martial arts competitions.

Appointing people, not cronyism.

This is the best way to select those soldiers under Liu Zheng's current command.

In addition to following Liu Zheng from birth to death, Xu Huang, who unreservedly supported Liu Zheng from the beginning, was directly appointed as the current commander of the first battalion without competition.

Including the commander of the second battalion who was being prepared, all the commanders, tun commanders, and even commanders all started the competition and promotion again.

In order to reflect fairness, Liu Zheng asked Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Zhou Cang and others to join the competition, the purpose was to show the soldiers under their command, this is fairness, give them enough hope.

Of course, in private, Liu Zheng would still explain to Huang Zhong, Ganning, Zhou Cang and others that this was not aimed at them, but simply to stimulate the soldiers below.

At the same time, Liu Zheng also believes in them, with their ability, it is no problem to stand out again in the competition.

These generals are all arrogant people, Liu Zheng thought it was difficult to say, but they didn't refuse one by one, on the contrary, they agreed very much, and they all wanted to try the strength of those people under Liu Zheng's command.
