"Your Majesty!"

In the imperial study, Xu Da, Yue Fei, Xu Huang, Meng Tian, Li Jing, and Wei Qing all gathered together.

"Let's get flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"I have something to ask you about this time." Liu Wei said in a deep voice.

"The ministers know everything!"

All the ministers replied in unison.

"Soldiers and horses from all over the country gathered, how did the recruitment go?" Liu Wei returned.

Everyone looked at each other a few times, and Li Jing was the first to stand up,

"It's the easiest place to go back to Your Majesty Youzhou to recruit troops, but Youzhou is the least place for men who meet Your Majesty's requirements, and there are about 10,000 recruits in Youzhou in a year and a half."

Liu Bian's control over conscription is very serious, the age is less than 18 years old, higher than 35 years old is not accepted, the only son in the family is not accepted, and according to the population of various places, only one percent of them are taken to enlist in the army, which seems simple, but the requirements are limited, like Youzhou, in fact, it has already passed the limit of one out of ten, but Youzhou has recovered quickly in recent years, and there are no problems.

"The conscription in Youzhou can be stopped, and some veterans in the army can distribute money and food to arrange for some to go home." Liu Wei instructed that although he knew the importance of veterans to the army, with the strength of Liu Wei's subordinates now, it was more important to pay attention to the future.

"The minister understands!" Li Jing replied.

……

"Si Li, Liangzhou has recruited 20,000 soldiers and horses during this time." The second to stand up was Meng Tian.

Compared with Youzhou, it was much easier for Meng Tian to recruit troops there, but because of the large number of troops recruited before the attack on Cao Cao, the source of troops here was also insufficient, especially in Liangzhou.

"The people over there have suffered, and Ouyang Xiu must be allowed to govern them properly, and there is no need to force conscription." Liu Wei instructed.

"Wechen understands!" Meng Tian replied.

……

"Nanyang conscription 10,000!"

Then Wei Qing also spoke, Wei Qing and the Imperial Forest Army did not return to Yanjing, but still stayed in Nanyang to guard against Jingzhou with Zhang Xiu.

Although Nanyang is only a county, it is extremely rich, and it can even be said that the entire Liangzhou is not as rich as Nanyang.

"The conscription over there in Nanyang must be careful, after all, it originally belonged to Jingzhou, and I am afraid that there will be unscrupulous people in it, and the conscription over there can be stopped temporarily." Liu Wei instructed Wei Qing.

"Remember!" Wei Qing nodded.

……

"Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Xuzhou collected a total of 100,000 remnants of Cao's army and recruited more than 30,000 soldiers."

The next one to speak was Xu Da, and now Xu Da and Yue Fei are basically mixed together, and the two soldiers and horses are dealing with the three states of Xuzhou.

"The people of these three states must be properly handled, remember not to disturb the ordinary people, not to bully and suppress the troops, tomorrow morning the court will rearrange it, and strive to arrange the three states properly." Liu Wei said with a solemn face.

"No!"

Xu Da and Yue Fei replied at the same time.

……

"Go back to Your Majesty Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Bingzhou to recruit a total of 30,000 soldiers." Xu Huang said.

Jizhou has always been the main source of soldiers for Liu Bian, among which the state, Qingzhou is relatively sparsely populated, although the development has been good in recent years, but after all, it is still worse, and there are not many soldiers who can be recruited, and Jizhou is because of the excessive conscription in the past, which has led to the lack of qualified soldiers.

"The conscription of Qinghai, Hebei, and the three states can also be stopped, and they need to recuperate for a while." Liu Wei said in a deep voice.

"The minister understands!"

Xu Huang replied.

……

Now with the soldiers and horses levied from all over the country, as well as the soldiers and horses of Zhang Xiu in Nanyang, about 250,000 new soldiers and horses have been added under Liu Wei's command.

Of course, excluding casualties, Liu Wei's increased soldiers and horses were actually only about 120,000 people, and in a battle with Cao Cao, a battle with Jingzhou, a battle with Yizhou, and a battle with Tang State, Liu Wei's command lost a total of more than 100,000 soldiers and horses.

"Next, Yue Fei led the troops to Nanyang, and Wei Qing led the Imperial Forest Army back to Bingzhou." Liu Wei commanded again.

"Yes!"

Wei Qing, Xu Da responded directly without asking too much.

"Xu Huang led the troops to guard Yanzhou, and the northern part of Xuzhou was on standby at any time."

"Yes!"

"Xu Dabu guards the area from Guangling to Runan, and Yue Fei guards the area from Nanyang to Runan."

Liu Wei continued to command.

"No!"

"I want to know the specific soldiers of your various ministries today." Liu Wei said in a deep voice.

"There are about 90,000 soldiers and horses in the minister's department now!" The first to answer was Meng Tian.

"There are 40,000 soldiers and horses in the Royal Forest Army, and there are 40,000 soldiers and horses after the original Nanyang army, and there are a total of 80,000 soldiers and horses in Nanyang." Then came Wei Qing.

"There are 40,000 troops in Youbeiping!"

"There are 100,000 troops in the minister's department!"

"There are 130,000 troops in the minister's department."

"There are also 130,000 troops in the minister's department."

"Yue Fei first took out 20,000 soldiers and horses and handed them to Xu Da, and then joined up with the original Nanyang army to defend Jingzhou with 150,000 soldiers and horses." Liu Wei commanded.

"Obey the order!"

"Xu Da defended Cao Cao with 150,000 soldiers and horses!"

"No!"

"Xu Huang took out 30,000 troops and sent them to Chang'an, joined up with Montaigne, took out 10,000 soldiers and horses and handed them to Wei Qing, and then drew out 10,000 troops and handed them over to Li Jing." Liu Wei commanded.

"Obey the order!"

Xu Huang agreed without thinking about it.

"Shi Jin under Montaigne, Xu Ning into Xu Da's army, Yang Yanhui from Montaigne's department, Yang Yan'an into Xu Huang's department, Xu Huang's department Yang Zaixing into Xu Da's department, Xu Huang's department Wang Yanzhang into Yue Fei's department, and Xu Da's department Qin Qiong into Yue Fei's department." Then Liu Wei gave another order.

"No!"

Liu Wei's subordinate generals almost did not refute Liu Wei's order.

"Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Nanyang still need to continue to recruit troops, the first battle of the Tang State will not be too long, Montaigne, Xu Da, Yue Fei, your soldiers and horses cannot be used, so the soldiers and horses to attack the Tang State are extremely limited, so the imperial court needs more soldiers and horses." Liu Wei instructed the generals.

"Wait for you to understand!"

Although these generals did not have the political acumen of Wenchen, they had a strong sense of strategy and could naturally understand what Liu Wei meant.

According to Liu Wei's meaning, Liu Wei's army will become:

Meng Tian led 120,000 troops to guard the area of Chang'an, Wei Qing led 50,000 imperial forest troops to guard the area of Bingzhou, and supported Chang'an at any time, the forbidden army guarded Zhuo County and Guangyang County, and Li Jing's 50,000 army were all guarded in Youbeiping.

Xu Huang led 50,000 troops to guard the Yanzhou area to the south and north, Yue Fei led 150,000 troops to guard Liu Bei in Jingzhou in the Nanyang area, and Xu Da led 150,000 troops to guard Cao Cao in Jiangdong near Xuzhou.

……

The next day, as Liu Wei said, he summoned his ministers for the early dynasty.

"Ministers and others to see Your Majesty, long live our emperor!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, be flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"It has been two years since Cao Cao was driven to Jiangdong, and I have not arranged the affairs of Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou, and this time I plan to arrange it properly."

"Your Majesty, please!"

"Cen Wenwen served as the history of Xuzhou, Xu Guangqi served as the history of Yanzhou, Fan Zhongyan served as the history of Xuzhou as the history of Xuzhou, Du Ruhui served as the history of the state of Xuzhou, Lu Su served as the history of the Qingzhou assassin, Ouyang Xiu served as the history of the Sili assassination, Shangguanyi served as the history of the Liangzhou assassination, Zhang Juzheng served as the history of the Youzhou assassination, and Zhao Pu served as the history of the Jizhou assassin."

This time, Liu Wei directly arranged all the assassination histories in various states, among which Shangguan Yi was Shangguan Wan'er's father, although Shangguan Wan'er was finished, but Shangguan Yi's talent was still recognized by Liu Wei.

"Among them, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou need a lot of attention from the three Qing families." Liu Wei said politely.

"Your Majesty's words are serious, this is a matter within the courtier's share." Fan Zhongyan took the initiative to say.

"If the three states are in need, the imperial court will do its best to help, and the three adults don't need to take care of it, as long as it can help the three states to the imperial court and my heart, then do it."

Liu Wei once again told that Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou are all accustomed to Cao Cao's leadership, especially Yanzhou, even more so, their hearts are more in Cao Cao's, Liu Wei wants to win the hearts of the people in Sanzhou It is very troublesome, but Liu Wei urgently needs to win the hearts of the people in Sanzhou.

……

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed, and Liu Wei's army has increased by 100,000 again, of which 50,000 were recruited from the three prefectures of Yanzhou, and the other 50,000 were recruited directly from Jizhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou, Qingzhou, and Sili Prefecture from among the township soldiers, militias, and veterans from all over the country, and the purpose was naturally to ......

……

PS: The reason why I chose Liu Heng instead of Liu Aiji to answer a question is because I think Liu Heng is more suitable for ...... Well, there's nothing wrong with it, haha!!
