"If it's just to exterminate the two thieves of Baibo and Montenegro. Your Majesty should be so risky. Between the words, Liu Bei, the king of thistle, suddenly smelled something unusual.

Zhao E also nodded: "Your Majesty is not a male lord." When the Yellow Turban was in turmoil, he placed the capital of Baguan and stuck to Luoyang. Today, the two thieves of black and white did not hesitate to take risks in person. As the king said, there are many unusual things about this. ”

Shi Yi sighed secretly in his heart, and his face was as usual: "Baibo, Black Mountain, are far from being yellow turbans." His Majesty is so happy, he first set up the eight schools in the West Garden, and he drove the expedition in person, and he wanted to win the flag and shine in the annals of history, but it is not known. ”

Liu Bei shook his head: "Wang Fu once exterminated the Four Paths Black Mountain. Under the city of the Yang family, he was brave enough to be the first, and he had nine out of thirty enemy chieftains. Those who can escape from the death of Wang Fu are all extremely cunning thieves. Now Lizhai Dynasty Song, back to the mountains, facing the Chen River. and gathered hundreds of thousands of remnants of yellow turbans. Baibo and Montenegro rely on each other and rely on each other. When two thieves are combined, there may be millions of thieves. Compared with the peak of the yellow scarf, it is not too much. But when the wind blows, they scatter in a hurry and escape away from the dense forest. After the crisis, they gathered together again. The thief has been a thief for a long time, the thief's heart is not dead, and the thief's nature is difficult to change. In addition to killing people and selling goods, there is no way to do anything else. Surrounded by wolves, His Majesty is in danger alone. The wise do not. ”

Zhao E then asked, "What does the king want?" ”

"Summoning Wang Fu, General Henghai, and the Eight Schools, to hold a court meeting. The two ministers of state, Ji Du Yin attended. The Thistle King gave an order.

"Whoa." The left country ordered the scholars to be different, and then passed on the king's order.

The Eight Schools of Jiguo: Swinging, begging, Jinfan, Lou Ship, Breaking Thieves, Raising Martial Arts, Eagle Yang, and Folding Chong.

There were 2,500 soldiers in each battalion, 2,500 auxiliaries and battalion officers, 40,000 men. The eight schools of Jiguo belong to the double walls of Jiguo. Among them, Dangkou, Capture, Yingyang, Zhichong, the four schools belong to the general of the Guardian Army, Wang Fu Huangzhong. Jinfan, Lou Chuan, Thief, Yangwu, the four schools belong to Henghai General Huang Gai. Under the command of the two walls of the Ji Kingdom, there is also a battalion each, with a total of 50,000 people.

In addition, there is also the king of thistle recruited from Longyou, and the elite of the shogunate is 50,000 people. It is under the command of the five schools of the shogunate, Sima and Fake Sima, military candidates, and false candidates, commanded and stationed in various cities and camps.

And with the eight schools of Jiguo, the elite soldiers and auxiliary soldiers account for half of each. The king of thistle picks one out of a hundred, and the elites recruited from the five million Qiang Zhuhu are all real elite divisions. In other words, the 50,000 "Xizhou soldiers" who returned to Jiguo were all sergeants of tigers and wolves. There are no auxiliaries, let alone battalion officers. On a daily basis, soldiers are dispatched from each song and served in turn.

After entering the country of Ji, Wang Fu made a drastic move and carried out reorganization. Auxiliary troops, battalion officers, machine vehicles, grain and grass are fully equipped. It was divided into twenty battalions, numbering 100,000 people. On weekdays, it is still commanded by officers at all levels such as the battalion military Sima, the false Sima (Qianhu), the military waiter, the false Hou (Wu Bo), the team leader (Baihu), the chief, the army commander, and other officers at all levels. In wartime, it can be mobilized with the Tiger Talisman of the King of Thistle's military order.

Other words. At this moment, there is a garrison in the country, 150,000 people.

Guarding thousands of miles of land is as easy as a snap. It is more than enough to send troops to exterminate Baibo and Montenegro.

This is not counting, among the 1 million 3 Han, 200,000 Goguryeo, and 400,000 Buyeo tribes who have newly moved into the Ji Kingdom, tens of thousands of warriors have been temporarily incorporated into the militia department.

On the premise that it does not affect the national fortunes at all. The Thistle King can easily assemble an army of 200,000 elites (note the 'elite').

This does not include the 100,000 high-speed chariot commanders, the 100,000 Wuhuan, Southern Xiongnu, and Xianbei 14 elite cavalry, and the 50,000 Western Regions coalition troops. And, the 10,000 shogunate elites in Luoyang Hanyuan.

Outside Youzhou, there are 12 departments of Mobei Wulu Hui and Monan Gaoche, and there are three counties of Wuhuan, Buyeo of the peninsula, and Wofu in the north and south; and the state of the Southern Xiongnu, Xianbei 14; Liangzhou five million Qiang Zhuhu; The six countries of Jizhou secretly formed an alliance with the Ji State. Most of these four states are headed by the king of thistles.

All it takes is the order of the thistle king. In an instant, gather under the "Red Deer Flame Horn and Three-legged Golden Crow", under the king's banner.

He Hou once said that the king of this trough has the power of the four states. That's why.

Even so, He Hou also missed the Western Regions Protectorate.

The reason for this. A distant oasis, too far away. The land of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty is one of them. In Liangzhou, the imperial court wants to give it up, not to mention the Western Regions outside the Yumen, which is the second one. Inside and outside the imperial court, except for Liu Bei, the king of thistle, no one regards the Western Regions and even the Western Liang as the core interests of the empire.

As mentioned earlier. Imperial civilization should be based on agriculture, taking into account oases, nomadism, islands, and even jungles, and many other secondary civilizations.

Nowadays.

Oasis civilization, the core appeal. In a word, it is the "Overland Silk Road".

Island civilization is the core demand. In a word, it is the "Maritime Silk Road".

As an isolated island in the desert, the oasis has a very similar urgent need for survival as an island in the sea. Lack of resources and lack of self-sufficiency. It must be exchanged for trade, everything needed.

How civilization is nurtured. A glimpse of the whole leopard.

Like what.

There are doctors from various cities who ask the Mongolian boys: What will they do when they grow up (what do they want to do when they grow up)?

If it was before, the boy replied, "Or go out into the army, or study medicine, or learn technology." And so on. However, nowadays, there is a boy who said: When you grow up, you should go boating on the sea with three or five friends.

This is proof enough. The seafaring civilization is quietly breeding and thriving in the country of thistle.

The diversity of civilizations will continue to integrate and complement each other with the exchange of people and things. Eventually, it became one.

Straight to the point.

The main hall of the royal palace. The country of thistle, the double wall, the eight schools, the ministers of the left and right, and the capital of thistle, gathered together.

"What do you think?" King Thistle asked.

Yin Lougui, the capital of thistle, got up and played: "Your Majesty is touring the north, and the matter is very high. Nowadays, there is no imperial decree to communicate. If Chen soldiers cross the border, they are afraid that they will bring disaster upon themselves. ”

This is the dilemma.

His Majesty is on a northern tour, and everything is as usual. There are heavy soldiers to protect them, and the surrounding is calm. Within a hundred miles, there was no trace of thieves. If the country of Ji raises troops at this time, it will be an escort or a rebellion. In case of an incident, there is no way to argue.

Therefore, the two ministers of state are also as Lou Gui thought.

"Lou Fujun and the two ministers of state, what they said is extremely true." Wang Fu said: "However, the matter is big, and we must not guard against it. Why not send the border, clean up the building, and sweep the couch to greet each other. Waiting for His Majesty's arrival. ”

Wang Fu's words. Positive and lonely. Liu Bei nodded happily, looked around and sat down, and then smiled: "Fourth brother, fifth brother." ”

"Brother is here." The new Ying Yang and the second lieutenant of the fold Chong came out together.

"Order the two of you to be envoys, and each of you will lead the sharp soldiers under your command, go to the Gaoyang border, clean the building, and wait for the holy driver."

"Whoa!" Tai Shici, Huang Xu comprehended.

The Jiedu Pavilion is now in the territory of Liwu and belongs to the country between the rivers.

Previously, the king of this tle went to the table and begged for the withdrawal of Boling County. The old county and the three kingdoms of Jizhou were thought to be compensatory.

The river is divided into three counties: Liwu, Boling and Raoyang. Anping country is divided into two counties: Anping and South Shenze. Zhongshan is divided into two counties, Anguo and Anxi. Therefore, there is no objection to the Zhongshan Kingdom cutting the former Han Dynasty Zhongshan King Jingwang Mausoleum, and Beiping County is in Jiguo.

One in and one out, but also earn a county of land.

"(Huangshui) a water branch, the southeast flows to the south of the Ting, and its water flows southeast again, into Hutuo."

"Xushui goes out of Beiping, east to Gaoyang into Yubo (water), and east into Huangshui."

In other words, the Jiguo Water Army, along the Jiguo Canal, dug Lidian and was stationed in the Gaoyang Boshui camp. You can fold into the water and gallop to the aid of the Jiedu Pavilion.
