Looking at his five women, six children, as well as Zhu Rongli who is far away in Yizhou and the unborn children in her belly, Hu Li is full of happiness and also feels a lot of pressure, so many children plus their super high seed survival rate may have more children in the future, even if it is one person and one county, the twelve counties of Changshan Country are not enough at all, it seems that he has to continue to work hard to lay a greater foundation for his children. Seeing Yun'er and Zou Lan, who were holding Hu Xiao and Hu Ting respectively, Hu Li announced in public: "Three days later, I will make up for Yun'er and Lan'er's concubine ceremony, and Lao Yu'er will have to worry about the specific arrangements." ”

"Yes, husband." Zhao Yu, who had been mentally prepared, replied.

That night, Hu Li, who had been separated for a year, and his five wives exchanged feelings, and Hu Li, who had no time in his gut, first called Cai Wenji to Zhao Yu's room, and two hours later called Zou Lan to Zhen Mi's room, plus Yun'er, who had been living with Zhen Mi, Hu Li had been busy from 6 o'clock in the evening after dinner until 12 o'clock in the evening before he hugged the three daughters and fell asleep. At noon the next day, Hu Li rubbed his sore waist and woke up, it seems that there are more women and it is a kind of distress.

Three days later, at Hu Li's concubine banquet, Zhao Yun, Xiahou Lan, Gao Lan, Zhang Jaw, Tian Feng and some people who arrived in time to receive the news gathered in Hu Li's county guard mansion, and in the sincere congratulations of everyone, Hu Li completed the concubine ceremony, and after another big drunk, Hu Li was helped to Yun'er and Zou Lan's room by his own soldiers.

The next day, all the people who attended the concubine banquet were left behind to report various matters to Hu Li.

"Zijin, the second uncle's 10,000 cavalry has been trained, and 5,000 reserve cavalry have also been trained, as long as there are enough war horses, the 5,000 reserve cavalry can go on the horse at any time." Zhao Yun was the first to stand up and say.

"Zijin, Uncle Xiahou's 20,000 infantry has already been trained, and they are waiting to go into battle to kill the enemy." Xia Houlan then stood up and said.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran also stood up, and Zhang Jaw said loudly: "The total of 70,000 Yuan troops trained by the last general and General Gao have also been trained, and they can fight at any time, because the last general and General Gao feel that they are shallow in their learning and their ability is not enough to lead an army of 70,000, so they specially request the lord to allocate 20,000 troops each to General Zhao and General Xiahou, and hope that the lord will be favorable." ”

"No need, there is no doubt in employing people, no suspicion is needed, the talents of the two generals are enough to command an army of 100,000, not to mention that there are only 35,000 soldiers and horses, and the hand can only be powerful if it is clenched into a fist and waved out, I will not reduce the combat effectiveness of my command because of unnecessary suspicion." Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran took the initiative to ask for a reduction in military power because of their status as generals, fearing Hu Li's suspicion, and Hu Li, who knew the reason, would of course not agree to their request, only by reusing Yuan Jun's generals, can those who were worried about Yuan Jun's surrender to exert 100% combat effectiveness, and separating Yuan's troops from surrendering will definitely discourage Yuan Jun's enthusiasm for surrendering troops to kill the enemy and making meritorious contributions, and this kind of self-destruction of the Great Wall Hu Li will not do. What's more, although Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran are not the kind of foolish and loyal people, they are not the kind of villains who are easy to rebel easily, and they surrendered to Hu Li because of Tian Feng's persuasion, and secondly, because the two of them were not reused by Yuan Shao at all, and the two generals were actually sent to help Wen Chou, a young man, and the two who had long been tired of the internal forces of Yuan Shao's group were dumping each other and were depressed before they were picked up by Hu Li. Historically, Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran were forced to defect to Cao Cao because they were framed by Guo Tu and shirked the responsibility for the defeat in the Battle of Guandu.

Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran glanced at each other, and both felt Hu Li's unreserved sense of trust that was different from Yuan Shao's, and the two of them who gave birth to the heart of "death for the confidant" saluted in unison: "Thank you for the trust of the lord, and the two of them will definitely bow down and die." ”

Seeing that Hu Li trusted Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran so much, Tian Feng, who was also from the Yuan army's camp, reported to Hu Li with a relieved face: "My lord, last year's domestic harvest in Changshan was bumper, and the grain in the treasury was enough to support our 140,000 army for five years. ”

After all, Tian Feng had received the grace of Yuan Shao's acquaintance, and joining Hu Li could help Hu Li handle the internal affairs in an orderly manner, and pointed out to Hu Li that now was the best time to expand, although he did not specify which cities should be captured, and let Hu Li choose by himself, but this was enough. Seeing the leading generals who were stirred up after Tian Feng's words, Hu Li came to the side of the lifelike war sand table made of wood and ordered the craftsmen to shrink it proportionally, pointed to Bingzhou and said to the generals: "Although we have defeated Yuan Shao's army several times, but that is because Yuan Shao's main energy has been on Gongsun Zhang, and when Yuan Shao eliminates Gongsun Zhang, who is still breathing, and dominates Youzhou, the next step will definitely be to pull out our thorn in the eye, so our goal cannot be placed in Jizhou, Although Jizhou has a large population and abundant products, it seems to be a big piece of fat, but at the same time, it is also a flat river, easy to attack and difficult to defend, and we can't calm the people of Jizhou in a short period of time. Therefore, our goal is set in the state, and the state is vast and sparsely populated, and the state is short of major generals under Shi Gaogan, and the main combat power is contained by my eldest brother Zhang Yan's Montenegrin army, and it is certainly effortless to seize the state, although the state may not produce as much food and population as Jizhou, but there are our scarce war horse resources, and it can also be connected with my big brother Zhang Yan's territory, and after the state is established, we can plunder the nomads on the grassland to the north, attack Youzhou, and attack the Sili region to the south, threatening Yanzhou and Yuzhou, When the world changes, let's take advantage of the situation. ”

Seeing that Hu Li was not attracted by the fat of Jizhou, but chose the steady development route of Jizhou, Tian Feng couldn't help but nod with relief. When the generals heard that there was a battle to fight, they were all excited, especially Zhao Yun, thinking that the countless war horses on the Bingzhou and the grassland were about to be at their fingertips, and their eyes burst into a burst of compelling divine light.
