"Lord Hou, this time our army has won a complete victory, eliminating the three departments of Nanlou, Wuyan, and Louban, not only fundamentally relieving the disaster of Wuhuan on the border, but also snatching countless money from these three tribes, horses, government affairs hall, and audit department, are being counted one by one, due to the large number, five people have been transferred from Juxian Guan again" Han Yan said with a smile on his face, the whole person looked a little excited, now the cost of Youzhou is getting bigger and bigger, not to mention other aspects, just the monthly salary of the 100,000 army in Youzhou, food and salary, It is a huge amount, if it weren't for the continuous help of the major scholars and merchants, the operation of the Thorn Mansion would be much more difficult, but fortunately, now that all this is over, the wealth accumulated by the Wuhuan clan over the years is enough for Youzhou to run for one to two years.

"Haha, good" Hearing this, Yuan Xi on the main seat nodded with satisfaction.

"Zipei, in this way, the army can be expanded again," Li Ru suddenly asked expectantly.

Han Yan was stunned for a moment, and instantly said anxiously: "Military Division, the current number of our army has exceeded 120,000, although this Youzhou is better than the Central Plains with ten rooms and nine emptiness, but it is not better than the other three continents, if you recruit troops like this, there will be no one to cultivate the fields."

Yuan Xi smiled and comforted: "Zipei, don't worry, the military advisor is joking with you, the main purpose of our army to fight Wuhuan is to form the Eight Banners and conquer the world, once the Eight Banners are successfully formed, the strength of our army can be as high as 150,000, which is completely enough, any more will hurt the fundamentals, and it is not conducive to control."

Han Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then glanced at Li Ru, who was smiling.

"But there is one most important thing to deal with first," Yuan Xi suddenly said seriously.

"Master Hou, please command," Han Yan responded.

"The Eight Banners can not all be successfully formed at once, to come step by step, feel the stones to cross the river, first learn experience, in order to ensure stability, success, you can first use the Murong grassland as a pilot, Xi thought about it, there is the formation of the white flag, the red flag two flags, to make the military uniform as soon as possible, in order to show Xi's attention to the Eight Banners, the money for the military uniform is not only from the Thorn Shi Mansion, but more importantly, the color is unified, and the shape is gorgeous" Yuan Xi picked up a cowhide drawing from the side and handed it over, saying: "Just use this as a standard"

After Han Yan looked through it, he saw that the picture on it was the round hat armor pattern of the Qing Dynasty, which was red and had a very good appearance.

After Han Yan finished reading it, he asked, "Yan will do it immediately, but how much will it be made?" ”

"At present, there are a total of 3,000 sets of two flags, 1,500 sets of one flag, and no more than one set will be given, and at the same time, it is stated that the military uniform is the identity symbol of the Eight Banners, and it is also their treatment in addition to the record.

"No!"

"Hou Ye is wise, so that the Eight Banners can be completely distinguished from ordinary Wuhuan people, so that they will have a sense of superiority in their hearts, and they will no longer have any burden if they kill their own people," Li Ru agreed.

"That said, but the aliens can't be trusted after all! There are still a lot of regulations," Han Yan said solemnly.

"Haha, from the perspective of Confucianism, these all depend on the descendants of the Hou Ye" Li Ru suddenly said with a smile.

Han Yan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded clearly, when Yuan Xi was there, with his own ability, huge prestige, and absolute control over the army, it was impossible for the Eight Banners to turn over a little storm, even if there was a problem, it would never be Yuan Xi's generation.

Emperor Taizu of all dynasties and generations is to seize the world by killing, and that earth-shattering killing intent and momentum can deter everything, and the emperors of later generations, pampered and pampered, the prestige alone is more than one grade lower, so the most important thing for emperors of all generations is the cultivation of heirs, as well as the setting of the system.

"We'll talk about that later! None of Hee's children have been born yet? If you can help, Xi will still arrange them," Yuan Xi said with a smile.

"Hou Ye Yingming" After the two hugged their fists, Li Ru suddenly smiled and said: "Hou Ye, I heard that Mrs. Hua and Mrs. Han are also pregnant, I don't know if it's true."

Yuan Xi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Yes, they are also pregnant, but they have been too busy recently, so they haven't made a big announcement."

"Hou Ye is wrong, what can be compared to Hou Ye's heirs, Hou Ye is now twenty-five, only three women are pregnant, too few, Yan can also marry some more daughters of the scholar family, or find some concubines" Han Yan said very seriously, three wives and four concubines are just the standard of ordinary rich people, and the women of princes and emperors are counted in hundreds and thousands.

Yuan Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly, there are already a lot of his women, the inner courtyard is now a little unpeaceful, intrigue often happens, for this, Yuan Xi admires other traversers, how can their harem get along so peacefully, he asked himself if he really can't make a bowl of water even, there is always favoritism, as soon as the woman's careful thinking starts, she will start to make trouble.

"What Zipei said is extremely true, the little daughter of the Hong family, Confucian, I saw it some time ago, she has a good appearance and a soft personality, and the Hong family is a big family, so she can be arranged to enter the backyard," Li Ru said suddenly.

"Yes, there are also the three daughters of the Qi family, who are proud of their appearance, and the head of the Qi family has already had several intentions," Han Yan also said.

"Stop, stop, now what's down to business? Xi is not short of women at present, Mi'er is pregnant now, Xi must not accept people at this time, and I will talk about this matter later" Yuan Xi directly waved his hand, and said with a firm face, he did not object to such a thing, he did not say a word, family flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers, everyone is greedy for freshness, but for Zhen Mi, Yuan Xi still loves from the bottom of her heart, and does not want her to be sad at this time of pregnancy.

After Li Ru and Han Yan glanced at each other, they immediately responded with admiration: "No! ”

"Master Hou, Lord Tian Yu has arrived" Liu Quan suddenly walked over with a smile.

"Really?" Yuan Xi immediately stood up, his eyes flickered for a while, and then said, "Cheng Erhu, Gan Ning, how is it?" ”

Liu Quan hurriedly said: "I was beaten a few days ago, but fortunately, my body is strong, and after the medical officer saw it, there is nothing big now."

"Okay, you go and ask, if they are still willing to serve Benhou, if they are willing, let them all wear armor and come to see so-and-so" Yuan Xi commanded.

"No!"

"Master Hou, is this to prepare a personal guard for the national envoy?" Li Ru asked.

"Haha, the country is presiding over the Eight Banners this time, the situation there is complicated, although there is a large army, but Xi is still not at ease, Cheng Erhu seems to be rough, but he is strong in martial arts, intuitive and sensitive, with him guarding, the country can be guaranteed without hindrance" Yuan Xi said.

Han Yan nodded, and then asked curiously, "What about General Gan Ning?" ”

"Although Yan Rou is loyal, and Yuan Zhi has always said that the Liaoxi Army is very obedient to orders, and it is good for the military division to expand there, but after all, there are still too few direct generals in the Liaoxi Army, so send Gan Ning over! This also gives Yuan Zhi one more available person, Gan Ning, a loyal and righteous man, and a general of the dragon and tiger, which will definitely play a huge role" Yuan Xi said seriously.

"Hou Ye is wise," Li Ru and Han Yan bowed again.
