After listening to Jian Yong's report without joy or sorrow, Liu Bei turned his gaze to Xi Zhong: "Zhicai, how is the military aspect?" ”

"Returning to the lord, since June and July this year, I began to assist Xianhe in the construction of the county seat, and after the construction of the county seat was completed, I recruited and trained soldiers. And at the end of September, Gao Shun's trapped army reached a full strength of 10,000 people, and most of the troops were local mountain people from Yizhou who came down from the mountains, and the Tiger Ben army led by General Zhao Yun was also full of 10,000, most of whom were Han people. ”

"Well, that's right, it's just that raising a pawn with nine people is a bit reckless from time to time? At this time, there were not many battles in the entire Yizhou, did they really need so many soldiers? Liu Bei asked with some concern.

"Lord, it is necessary, although there are not many people in Yizhou at the moment, but the local area of Yizhou is quite large, and the army of 20,000 people is not enough to guard, although there are 4,000 sailors and soldiers on the sea, but many mountain people on the local mountain still need our precautions, and the mountain people live in the mountains all year round, and their movements are vigorous and fast, so there is no 20,000 troops who are not enough to defend at all."

"Okay, in that case, I'll leave it all to you, what kind of battle will happen this year?" Liu Bei asked again.

"After forming an army at the end of September, after a short period of training, out of the need to garrison the soldiers, I and Gao Shun, Zhao Yun and Pei Yuanshao General led 5,000 soldiers into the mountains to fight against the local mountain people, has gone through three battles, annihilated nearly 10,000 mountain people, and forced three local mountain people to live down the mountain." Xi Zhicai said eloquently.

"Yes, it's just that for the local mountain people, the siege is supplemented, and the attack is the main thing, as long as they go down the mountain, they are the people under the rule of my Han Dynasty, and they will also be my endless source of soldiers in the future." Liu Bei reminded uneasily.

"Yes, my lord. At the same time, through the purchase of war horses with Liaodong Xianbei and other countries, now there are 3,000 stallions in the whole Yizhou, 5,000 breeding mares, and 30,000 acres of horse farms. Xi Zhicai once again introduced the relevant matters of the racecourse.

"Very good, this time I came back, I selected two thousand war horses from the Western Regions, these war horses will be used as war horses for the training of all soldiers in Yizhou, for the time being, due to the scarcity of war horses, we can't have one war horse per person, but we can use these two thousand war horses to build cavalry first, and start daily training, and when there are war horses, there will be no need for such a long time of training."

"No." Xi Zhicai bowed down and agreed.

"Gao Shun, how is the combat strength of the trapped army now?" Liu Bei looked at Gao Shun.

"My lord, due to the scarcity of battles, it is not possible to completely test the combat strength of the trapped army for the time being, but if it is against the Xianbei Iron Cavalry that I encountered in Bingzhou before, my trapped army should be able to defeat one enemy and two." Gao Shun said proudly.

"Oh, it's quite good to have such combat power, in this case, you should continue to train, the trapped army will not be expanded, on the basis of the existing soldiers, you will improve the combat power of individual soldiers again, you can understand. There is also Xianhe, and all the equipment that should be supplied to the trapped army is given priority. ”

"No." Gao Shun, Jian Yongying.

"Zilong, how is your Tiger Army?"

"Third Senior Brother, although the tiger is not as good as the trap, it should be able to defeat the trapped-soldiers with two enemies and one enemy." Although it is not as good as the trap army, it is also quite good combat power to be able to kill a trap army with two tiger soldiers.

"Okay, very good, but Zilong, can you see the two thousand elites I brought back this time?"

"Third Senior Brother, I've seen them, they are all mighty and majestic people!"

"I want to hand over these 2,000 soldiers to your command, called the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, which is a heavy cavalry, the soldiers and horses are all armored, and the elite war horses are selected, which can be the most elite in wartime, and will clear all obstacles for me at that time, are you willing?" Liu Bei suddenly raised his morale and said.

"Third Senior Brother, I am willing. It's just that if I am the commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry, then who will lead the tiger army? Zhao Yun asked worriedly.

"He Ting, Wei Chi Zhan, and you each command 5,000 Tiger Army, and the 5,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Wei Chi Zhan have been renamed Long Yan Army, all of them are under the command of Xi Zhong, are you two willing?" Liu Bei looked at He Ting and Wei Chizhan who came from the northwest with him, and said.

"We are willing." Chi Zhan and Captain Ting looked at each other and smiled, and knelt down and nodded in agreement.

"Pei Yuanshao and Cheng Lian, appoint you as the deputies of He Ting and Wei Chi Zhan, and assist him in commanding the two armies of Huben and Long Yan together." After thinking about it, Liu Bei commanded again.

"Zhicai, there is one more thing you need to pay attention to, the school camp in Yizhou should be under your control, and a large number of school camps should be assigned to Jiaozhou to listen to the intelligence and establish an intelligence station, so that they can quickly carry out their work once there are changes in the future." Liu Bei dropped a bombshell again.

Basically everyone knows about the school camp, but Liu Bei rarely uses it for the Han Dynasty, basically it is all external, and now Liu Bei has asked the school camp to go to Jiaozhou, there are a lot of things to say, but all the people are silent and don't say anything, of course, Liu Bei didn't explain anything.

"Yuanhua, now that Bei has helped the Han Dynasty stabilize the Western Regions, I want to ask Yuanhua to go to the Western Regions with Bei, in the Western Regions, for the Han people in the Western Regions to add a medical hall, I don't know if Yuanhua is willing." Now that the Western Regions are already under his own management, Liu Bei naturally needs to open a medical hall in the Western Regions, as the soul of a modern person, he still feels that as long as he is within his ability, he is still willing to promote the people's livelihood.

For this request, Hua Tuo naturally did not refuse, and excitedly agreed.

Later, after listening to some reports from other aspects, Liu Bei dismissed everyone and left Zhang Zhao alone.

"Zibu, I'm afraid you don't have to rest before the New Year, you can write a handwritten letter to me, I will send someone to bring your family over to reunite with you, and Zibu you need to inspect the entire Yizhou, and when I inspect Yizhou in the future, hand over a Yizhou development record to me, and list the methods of how to govern Yizhou in your heart, if it is appropriate, I will let Xianhe govern Yizhou according to your method, and the entire Yizhou will be the foundation of my Liu Bei and all the personnel under his command, even if we lose the fight with the eunuchs, We also have the soldiers and civilians of Yizhou to protect our descendants for us. ”

Since he was already on Liu Bei's side, Zhang Zhao had no possibility of retreating, so he nodded and agreed.

After dealing with all the things, Liu Bei's whole person was also idle, and at this time, there was only less than half a month left before the Chinese New Year, during which the entire Liu Bei's mansion was handed over to Cai Yan to manage, and Liu Bei himself was trained with Zhao Yun and two thousand tigers and leopards all day long.

During this period, Cai Yan raised a question, but Liu Bei was a little troubled, Cai Yan proposed that except for Liu Bei, the rest of the entire mansion were female dependents, but the guards guarding Liu Bei's mansion were all men, which was quite inconvenient.

Because Liu Bei is the soul of a modern person, Liu Bei opposed the creature of eunuchs from the beginning, so all the servants in the palace were maids or servants.

In view of Cai Yan's dissatisfaction, Liu Bei was really troubled for several days, but on this day, when Liu Bei met Zhao Yun's sister Zhao Yu, all the problems that plagued him were solved. Zhao Yu, as Zhao Yun's younger sister, is proficient in riding, guns, shooting, and swords, and is quite extraordinary, and Liao Hua has not lost for 70 rounds, and he is not very old but is already beautiful like a fairy, but Liu Bei at this time has no bad intentions, and completely treats Zhao Yu as his sister.

"Zilong, how far is Sister Ling's year?" Liu Bei asked.

"Third senior brother, the younger sister has just turned sixteen years old." was asked by Liu Bei, Zhao Yun's heart suddenly burst, it wouldn't be Liu Bei's fall in love with his little sister.

"Oh, you will exchange Ling Mei, I have something to ask him."

Although he was uneasy, Zhao Yun still went over and called Zhao Yu over.

"Zhao Yu, other girls all learn female workers, why do you learn martial arts from your brother?" Liu Bei saw Zhao Yu coming, so he asked.

"Lord, I also want to kill the enemy like my brother and make contributions to the Han Dynasty." Zhao Yu looked at Zhao Yun with admiration, and then replied.

"Really? Then I can fulfill your little wish. Liu Bei also replied excitedly.

"Third Senior Brother, Yu'er is just a child, don't get used to her." Zhao Yun hurriedly suggested.

"Zilong, you're too worried, Zhao Yu, I want to build an army of 4,000 people with you as a general, and all the troops are women, I don't know if you are willing?" Liu Bei said.

"Really? Can I really be the most general? Zhao Yu said excitedly.

"Of course, I still lied to you, but you must obey my orders, and the main task of your army is to protect the safety of me and my wife, okay?"

"Ah, you can't go to war?" Zhao Yu said disappointedly.

"Who said you can't go to war, but not for the time being. If you want, I can write you a letter of order, and when the time comes, you can go and recruit troops and horses, and then you will have to give priority to replenishing your army with weapons, how about it? Liu Bei said temptingly.

"Okay, as long as I can go to the battlefield to make a contribution, I will agree." Zhao Yu said excitedly again.

"That's right, there are 4,000 people at the moment, all of them are female soldiers, and they should be paid the same as male soldiers, and they are called women's soldiers." Liu Bei said loudly, and at the same time wrote a warrant and handed it to Zhao Yu, who took the warrant and flew away.

So far, the first female soldier of the Three Kingdoms appeared in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
