Chapter 206: Two Years Later

Seeing Liu Qi smiling and nodding, Lu Lingqi couldn't help but be surprised, she couldn't imagine why such a strange idea suddenly popped up in the mind of the man opposite, women sent troops to fight, which can be said to be extremely rare in history, in the historical epic she knew, it seems that except for the Shang Dynasty, there was a queen called Nu Hao who fought many times as a daughter, and there were two traitor leaders of this dynasty, Zheng Bian and Zheng Er, and the others have never heard of it again.

But this man proposed to form a women's army, imagining that he could also charge into battle like those male generals, Lu Lingqi's heart was inexplicably not afraid, but gave birth to a look of yearning.

"If my father could have allowed me to form an army when he was alive, then I might have been able to help my father deal with Cao Cao and Liu Bei, even if I died on the battlefield at that time, I would have no regrets. Well, if I can fight on the battlefield like my father in the future, and lead a large army to break through the territory of Cao Cao and Liu Bei in the future, and defeat them under my own hands, my father will definitely praise him for having a successor. ”

Lu Lingqi thought about it for a while, and then asked Liu Qi excitedly: "Are you really willing to let me be a female general and lead an army to fight with you?" You're not afraid of being talked about by stubborn Taoists? ”

But I heard Liu Qi laugh and said: "I will use people, but I have always only asked about talent and conduct, not about background, if it is a woman who is talented, why can't I use it?" In the first few days of our army, there were Xiangyang Huang Shuo women dressed as men, entered the army, and also made many miraculous achievements, and now he was appointed as the Ordnance Division, the status is equivalent to two thousand stone Taishou, and has made outstanding contributions to the development of our army, Huang Shuo's achievements are obvious to all, even many male generals are ashamed of themselves, since women can make contributions, why can't they be worshipped? ”

Lu Lingqi couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, and then said with admiration: "Lord Taiwei is really extraordinary, admirable, today with your words, I will promise to be a female general, hehe, let some self-righteous men take a look, we women can also go to the battlefield, and even more powerful than them." ”

"Hehe, if you can have this ambition, it is not in vain that you are Lu Fengxian's daughter, since this is the case, I will worship you as the Sima of other departments, and allow you to recruit an army of 2,000 people, and when you make contributions in the future, I will ensure that your team is getting bigger and bigger." Liu Qi nodded, and ordered the newly appointed Taiwei Mansion Governor Shi Wangcang to write a letter of appointment, and gave him the military talisman, grain and grass, and handed it to Lu Lingqi.

Lu Lingqi excitedly took the talisman and the letter of appointment, and said loudly: "Lord Taiwei, please rest assured, the last general will definitely recruit a full women's army, and the last general will definitely use the standards of ordinary male soldiers to demand the women's army, so that they can become an elite in our army." ”

After that, Lu Lingqi selected a few knowledgeable and capable maids in the family, and selected a few mature and stable generals, and began to form her first women's army with them as the backbone.

This time, because it was the first time in history that a female general recruited soldiers, Lu Lingqi was not obsessed with establishing an all-female army, but mainly male soldiers, supplemented by female soldiers, after all, now in Chengping, Jingzhou, few families are willing to let their daughters become soldiers.

It can also be seen that Lu Lingqi is not a person who eats the ancients, and can make changes according to the actual situation, and this is also the basic element that a general should have, so Liu Qi, who heard people talk about this scene, couldn't help but nod, thinking that Lu Lingqi can be regarded as a qualified general.

Since he decided that Lu Lingqi was a usable talent, Liu Qi would naturally support it, and after discussing with his wife Kuai Ruyu, he took out most of the beauties that Yuan Shao gave to him at the beginning, and pulled out most of them that have not been used so far for her to choose, plus Lu Lingqi mobilized in the Chen Palace, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu, Song Xian and his own family who moved to Xiangyang with her, and even pulled up a female guard team of about 100 people.

Such a result can be said to be very big, which can be greatly inspiring, and it also strengthens Liu Qi's belief that Lu Lingqi will definitely be able to make a good start this time.

Half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and Lu Lingqi's team is extremely popular because there are beautiful women in the army, and many strong men have flocked to her military camp to enlist in the army.

Even these 4,000 people were all left behind by Lu Lingqi after careful selection, and the second phase and those who were rejected were still sought-after goods in the ordinary army, which shows that those male soldiers in Lu Lingqi's army are already much stronger than ordinary troops in terms of soldiers.

Such a scene obviously exceeded Liu Qi's original expectations, even he didn't expect that the appeal of more than 100 beauties in the army would be so great, it was no less than a civil emergency mobilization in later generations.

And in the past six months, Lu Lingqi has not relaxed the training of the female soldiers under her command at all, and even their training is much more than that of ordinary male soldiers, but what is amazing is that although these female soldiers are very hard, none of them have applied to her to quit from beginning to end, all of them have gritted their teeth and trained hard, in just half a year, these female soldiers have all been reborn and have undergone great changes, whether it is combat effectiveness or reaction speed, Even compared to the male soldiers in the army, it was not much worse.

As a result, the first regular female soldier in the history of the Han Dynasty was born in Jingzhou, which was commanded by Liu Qi, and Lu Lingqi, the chief general of the Women's Army, became a celebrity in the army, and even surpassed Huo Jun in terms of reputation.

And the scene that Liu Qi has been worried about these days will be discussed and criticized by those old diehards has never happened.

In fact, Liu Qi had such worries as early as when he had the idea of letting Lu Lingqi recruit female soldiers, and the reason why he didn't care at the beginning was mainly to comfort Lu Lingqi, and at that time he was already ready to bear the storm-like accusations.

"No matter what, my team of female soldiers has been established anyway, if you accuse, accuse, it's a big deal if I don't refute it, and even I can learn from Cao Cao and reward you for your advice, but I will still do this."

However, to his surprise, none of the Confucian scholars had mentioned such a proposal to him these days.

In fact, it's not that they don't want to mention it, but they have completely fallen into gratitude to Liu Qi, so that they can't bear to annoy the lord and disciple with such a small problem as recruiting female soldiers.

Their gratitude to Liu Qi naturally comes from printing!

After six months of hard work, Zuo Bo's papermaking technology has been promoted in various parts of the three states, and dozens of paper mills have been established in various places organized by the government, producing a large number of high-quality paper that can be used to print scriptures.

And the supply of these papers created the conditions for the promotion of printing technology in the next step.

Nowadays, in the persuasion institutions in the three states, the craftsmen who print the scriptures in various places work day and night, printing thousands of copies of the Confucian scriptures, basically meeting the needs of students everywhere for books.

At this time, Liu Qi added military affairs, agricultural affairs, astronomy, calendars, and medical subjects to Confucian education, and taught students the art of war, the art of war, the agricultural field, the astronomical calendar, medicine and other categories, and encouraged people from all over the country to study these subjects according to their own interests and talents.

What especially pleased Liu Qi was that not long after the establishment of the medical department, it attracted a famous medical scientist, this person is Zhang Ji, a native of Nanyang, whose name is Zhongjing, who is as famous as the divine doctor Hua Tuo, and is respected as a peerless famous doctor in later generations.

Even though Liu Qi appointed Zhang Ji as the head of medicine and let him be fully responsible for the teaching of medicine, after Zhang Ji left, he personally went to Lujiang to invite the famous doctor Hua Tuo, and let him be responsible for teaching medical skills like Zhang Ji at the beginning.

It took them only two years to train hundreds of skilled doctors for Jingzhou, and passed on all their years of painstaking work to the students, and allowed the official to print them widely.

I have to say that Liu Qi was deeply moved by the selfless mind of the two medical masters, and they both summarized their years of experience and passed them on to others without reservation, just to enable more people to have a chance to live, such a mind is really admirable and lamentable.

A small number of the disciples trained by the two medical masters did not want to be officials, and were willing to treat the people in the people, like their teacher Zhang Zhongjing, and help the world.

Later, with the increasing number of medical disciples, Liu Qi ordered the establishment of officially established hospitals in various counties and counties to facilitate the timely treatment of the majority of patients.

More disciples chose to enter the official and were recommended to various places as medical officers, especially a large part of the disciples trained by Hua Tuo, who joined Liu Qi's army as military doctors, which greatly reduced the casualties of Liu Qi's army in the battle.

The establishment of the Agricultural Affairs Department has trained a large number of agricultural officials who have mastered advanced farming technology and advanced production tools for the three states, and their policy of persuading agriculture to do agriculture has further strengthened the economic strength of the three states.

In just two years, his army has been enriched with a large number of grassroots cadres, including the positions of military commander, chief officer, Du Bo, military marquis, military commander, and military commander, which has further strengthened the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the army, and a most powerful elite soldier in the world has quietly taken shape without attracting attention.
