In addition to encouraging fertility, rewarding production, and building roads, the Qin also began to carry out further reforms in the army.

Due to the previous big victories, the soldiers have been well rewarded, and even if they die in battle, they can get a good pension, so more and more people want to join the army recently, which is very rare in other places.

If other forces want to use the conscription system, they will hardly be able to recruit many soldiers, and they will generally adopt the conscription system, and the young and strong will be recruited to join the army according to their household registration.

And Qin Hua's side is indeed vying to join the army, some of the soldiers who followed Qin Hua first are now considered a rich family in their hometown, from the original family with four walls, it has become a big new house in just a few years, and a lot of servants have been added to the family, and some of them have married a few wives and concubines, no wonder other people are blushing.

"The two dogs of the Chen family, just a little earlier than the state herdsman, are now already centurions, and their monthly salaries are almost comparable to my year's harvest, and if there is a war, they can get more rewards."

"Yes, I heard that Old Man Chen is going to buy a second carriage recently, and I don't know what they want so many carriages to do with only a few people in their family."

"I heard that the third child of the Chen family is also going to marry a daughter-in-law, this is for him."

"Hey, but the old Chen family died in Jincheng, and the pension was not obtained, if it wasn't for the reduction of the family's mouth, Old Man Chen would not let Ergou go to join the army, but I didn't expect it to be developed now."

"It's nothing, do you know the fifth king of the next village?"

"Wang Wu? Is that the one who did five people in our village back then? ”

"Yes, when there was a conflict and fight between the two villages, Wang Wu was the most powerful one, do you know how he is now?"

"I heard that he also joined the army, but he is the only one left in their family, and I don't know what happened now."

"Wang Wu is amazing now, and he is also a centurion now."

"Well, it's not surprising that Wang Wu can fight more than Ergou, and he will definitely not be worse than Ergou."

"You don't understand this, Wang Wu's centurion is much stronger than the second dog, and Wang Wu has joined the trapping camp."

"Trapped?"

This person didn't know much about the army in Liangzhou, so he looked at the other person with some puzzlement.

"The trapping camp is the most elite army under the command of Lord Governor, and I heard that any one person in it can fight ten at a time. They are also treated much better than ordinary soldiers, and recently I have been listening to Ergou complain that he is almost able to join the trapping camp. If you can become a centurion in the trapping camp, it is easy to buy a big house in the county. ”

"So good? Then I will also hurry up and let my kid go to join the army, what kind of book do you want to read with such a good treatment. ”

"Don't, that kid in your family is thin and weak, and he won't be cut down by a knife when he goes to the battlefield, or study with peace of mind, I heard that Lord Zhou Mu is going to hold some imperial examinations recently, if he can study hard, maybe he can become a big official in the future."

"Haha, the big official doesn't dare to think about it, it would be good if he could get an official and a half-position in the county government, and let him come back to farm if it is not good, now the taxes are so low, if it weren't for the old woman in my family, I would still like to grow a few acres."

"Don't be reckless, now that the good days have just begun, don't break your body."

Conversations like this are going on all over Liangzhou, and now the people of Liangzhou almost don't have the existence of the Han Emperor in their hearts, and they will only mention Qin Hua, the pastor of Liangzhou Prefecture, and even some places have prepared to establish a shrine for Qin Hua, so that the people can worship.

Qin Hua expanded Liangzhou's military strength, but also wanted to avoid reckless force, so he divided Liangzhou's army into three parts.

One of them is naturally the main army that Qin Hua is going to fight everywhere, this army needs to be composed of all young and strong, and it also has high requirements for families.

The father does not accept it in the son, and the brother does not accept it in the younger brother, which is also one of Qin Hua's benevolent policies, which is greatly appreciated by both Jia Xu and Xun You.

As the saying goes, it is actually a very sad thing to fight tiger brothers and go into battle with father and son, but father and son or brother, and even a family of men all appear in the army.

As the main force with the highest mortality rate, Qin Hua would not allow this kind of thing to happen.

The second part is the city guards of various counties, they are led by county lieutenants or county lieutenants, and they are mainly responsible for maintaining law and order in the city, arresting bandits and the like.

The composition of the army was composed of local people, and in order to meet the problem of a possible shortage of soldiers, Qin Hua ordered that men over the age of eighteen in all parts of the country should go to the city defense army for training on a regular basis and rotate regularly, so that when they needed to replenish the supply of troops, they would not have to directly pull those untrained peasants into the battlefield.

The last one is the border troops, although now the big external trouble has been temporarily solved by Qin Hua, but there will still be some small groups of foreign Hu raiding the border, so this border army needs to exist, but it is not of much use for the time being, their responsibilities are more in the border tuntian.

The main source of troops in the garrison troops is some new homeless people and some people who have made mistakes and been assigned, of course, there are also ordinary Liangzhou residents who want to join, after all, although the treatment of the garrison troops is not as good as that of the main force, but it is much better than that of the city defense troops.

Especially those in charge of the Silk Road, there is a lot of oil and water, as long as it is not too much, Qin Hua has no objection to them getting some oil and water.

The border troops and the city defense troops were established according to the previous standards, and they rarely encountered wars, and Qin Hua mainly built his main force to conquer the world.

The reason why Gao Shun was not allowed to go to Hanzhong with Zhang Liao this time was because Qin Hua was ready to let him train a few more elite troops similar to the trapped camp.

Trap factions can be classified as heavy infantry, but are much more flexible than heavy infantry.

However, the war cannot be won by a single branch, and Qin Hua is ready to train a few more elite troops from other arms.

There are many war horses in the north, and naturally there are also many cavalry, and the Xiliang cavalry is also famous in history, but Qin Hua is still not satisfied.

Although he already had an Iron Eagle cavalry to harass and chase the enemy, he also wanted to build a few more distinctive cavalry.

For example, the one that Gao Shun mainly trains now, the whole body is protected by three layers of leather armor, chain mail and iron armor, and the weapon is a spear with a horse chopping knife, supplemented by a bow and arrow.

This is an army that can make a decisive difference in a small war.

Because the cost is too expensive and the source of troops is limited, Qin Hua is now only preparing to build a scale of about 3,000 people.

Originally, Qin Hua wanted to name them the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry before Cao Cao, but after thinking about it, Qin Hua still admired Lao Cao, so he named this army Xuanjia Jingqi and registered a trademark before Li Shimin.

The Xuanjia Elite Rider is covered with black armor all over his body, including the mount, with a layer of leather armor covered with a layer of Lin armor, and a mask in the helmet that can be retracted.

They can defend against arrows to the maximum, allowing them to exert maximum power when attacking.

In addition, there is also an elite archer unit called the Condor Archer, the number is not large, only more than ten people, but all of them can bend the bow and shoot the eagle.

This is Qin Hua prepared for Lu Bu and other fierce generals, although he admires Lu Bu's force, but he only fought with Lu Bu to verify his strength before, if he is really in a war, he will not do this kind of thing again.

Moreover, the condor shooters can also sneak attack the enemy's commander, and if the commander of an army dies in the era of cold weapons, then their morale will inevitably plummet, and there is even the possibility of direct defeat.

Qin Hua is different from Mengxin, he doesn't want to pursue the true meaning of martial arts, he just wants this world.

Due to financial constraints, Qin Hua can only do so much now, if he has enough wealth, he even wants to arm all the troops to the teeth, but unfortunately the reality does not allow him to do this.

Because Qin Hua's taxes on agriculture were greatly reduced, the taxes collected from agriculture were not enough for him to use for infrastructure (building government offices, water conservancy projects, building roads, etc.), let alone for the army.

The only thing Qin Hua can use to build the army now is the taxes brought by commerce.

However, Liangzhou's business is only in its infancy, and although the income is considerable, it is not enough to support the operation of the entire Liangzhou.

The Xianbei side had the least trade benefits, because only Budugen was willing to trade with him, and the rest of the Xianbei leaders did not want to deal with the Han Chinese.

After Fu Luo Han was defeated by Qin Hua, although he was willing to surrender, he refused to trade with Qin Hua, and he would rather trade with Budugen after Qin Hua traded with Budugen than directly contact Qin Hua's people.

In addition, the Xianbei people on the grassland are not the only Budugen, so the caravan may also encounter the raids of other Xianbei tribes.

The same is true for trade with the Western Regions, now Qin Hua's caravan can only trade with the countries of the Western Regions, except for war horses and gems, there are really not many commodities that can be traded.

It's not that he doesn't want to open up the complete Silk Road, but on the way to Europe, there are still two empires, Shuanggui and Anxi, and he will not conflict with these two empires until he has enough strength.

But even so, Qin Hua encouraged those caravans to continue along the Silk Road, if they could really reach the Roman Empire, then the benefits of this trip would definitely be much higher than only trading with the countries of the Western Regions.

However, although several caravans have expressed their willingness to go to the Roman Empire, there has been no news until now.

The trade with the Qiang people was also similar to that of the Xianbei people.

The Qingyang Alliance that Qin Hua now controls is only a few Qiang tribes living in and near Liangzhou, and other major tribes such as the Qiang people and Baima Qiang have not yet established trade with Liangzhou.

Qin Hua's "old man" Beigong Boyu was also silent for a while after being defeated by Qin Hua, but recently he has become active again.

He even asked Qin Hua to borrow troops, wanting to unify the entire Qiang people.

Of course, Qin Hua refused this, now that there are warlords all over the Han Dynasty, his primary target is the entire Han Dynasty, and he is not very interested in these places that are still semi-civilized.

However, under the soft grinding and hard bubble of Beigong Tiexin, Qin Hua finally relented and handed over the 20,000 Qingyang troops under the Qingyang Alliance to Beigong Boyu to command, so that he could conquer those Qiang tribes that were no longer under the control of Liangzhou.

However, Qin Hua also gave him an idea, but it was useless to simply attack, and now the Liangzhou army had more than 100,000 armor, and Qin Hua did not dare to boast that he could conquer the entire Qiang tribe, so he asked Beigong Boyu to go step by step.

Those small tribes began to slowly integrate and expand their armies.

Wait until you have a strong strength before you come into contact with those big tribes.

At the same time, it is necessary to continue the trade, so that those Qiang people can taste the sweetness, and they will sincerely take refuge.

There is no need for Qin Hua to remind him of this, since the establishment of the Qingyang Alliance for so long, he also knows that plundering is not comparable to trade.

In the past, in the event of natural and man-made disasters, people in the tribe might starve to death, but now everyone can eat and drink enough.

For example, the leader of the Aries clan before, who used to be a thin old man, now has a full circle of body, and it is estimated that his weight is much heavier than that of Beigong Boyu.

Just like Han Sui, Qin Hua was also worried about Beigong Boyu's soldiers, but he couldn't stand Beigong Tiexin's constant blowing of the pillow wind.

However, even so, Qin Hua still demanded that Beigong Boyu must report to him when expanding his army, and Liangzhou would also send troops to serve as officers under him.

Moreover, Beigong Boyu's personal soldiers must all be served by the Liangzhou army.

Although Beigong Boyu was a little dissatisfied with this, he could only accept it.

Moreover, he is only a daughter of Beigong Tiexin, Qin Hua is equivalent to half of his son, and he has no reason to rebel against Qin Hua.

In June of the second year of Chuping, Qin Hua suddenly received a letter from Han Sui.

"Zhang Yang wants to take refuge in Liangzhou?"

This Zhang Yang was also one of the princes who crusaded against Dong Zhuo at the beginning, and he was also the number one person, Qin Hua didn't expect that he didn't send troops to attack him, and he didn't have the slightest intention of wanting to be an enemy of him, how could this Zhang Yang take the initiative to come to take refuge?

It wasn't until Nighthawk's report arrived that Qin Hua learned the reason.

"Has Yuan Shao already moved into Jizhou?"

It is said that after the dissolution of the coalition forces, Yuan Shao returned to Hanoi County.

At that time, the coalition had just been disbanded, and Yuan Shao's army was short of food and grain, so Jizhou Mu Hanfu, who was Yuan Kui's protégé, sent him grain and grass.

At first, Yuan Shao was still very happy, he didn't expect Han Fu to not forget the old feelings and send him military funds in time.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao's military advisor Sean Ji said: "The big husband is all over the world, why should he treat people to send food for food?" Jizhou is rich in money and grain, why don't the generals take it? ”

Yuan Shao felt bad when he heard it, and the grain and grass sent by Han Fu seemed to have suddenly become a charity for him, so Yuan Shao asked Sean Ji: "What's the plan?" ”

Sean Ji replied: "You can secretly write a letter to Gongsun Zhan, asking him to send troops together to carve up Jizhou." Han Fu has no plans, so he will inevitably ask the general for help, but he can secretly take things and seek Jizhou. ”

Yuan Shao was overjoyed and immediately wrote a letter to Gongsun Zhan.

After getting the letter, Gongsun Zhan also decisively sent troops to Jizhou, if Suji thought the same, Han Fu really asked Yuan Shao for help.

Unexpectedly, after Yuan Shao entered Jizhou, he immediately seized Han Fu's power, and took charge of all affairs in Jizhou with Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Xu You, and Sean Ji, and only gave Han Fu the title of General Fenwei.

Han Fu knew that he had been deceived, so he immediately left his family and rode alone to vote for Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao.

When Gongsun Zhan learned that Yuan Shao had won Jizhou, he sent his younger brother Gongsun Yue to negotiate, but he was intercepted and killed by Yuan Shao's army pretending to be Dong Zhuo.

Since then, Yuan Shaogong and Sun Zan have lost harmony.

"It seems that the real princes have already begun." After reading the report, Qin Hua sighed.
