In 184 AD, the first year of Hanzhongping, on the eighth day of December, Sun Ce, one of the great talents of Beijiang University and a new upstart in Northern Xinjiang, officially stepped into the political arena of Northern Xinjiang and became the leader of Xindu Taishou and the capital of Jizhou.

"No! The humble position will never live up to the expectations of His Highness. Gongsun Ce was stunned, and then fell to the ground with great joy, and kowtowed to Liu Tai.

"Get up." Liu Tai nodded with a smile, although Gongsun Ce is a member of the Gongsun family, he has been really loyal to himself in the past few years, so there is no need to snub him.

"Well, Xingguo, from now on, you will be Yan Liang's staff for the time being, assist Yan Liang in handling the government affairs of Zhenyuan County, and be the head of the same army, and then this king will have someone prepare a military seal for you." Liu Tai turned to Wei Xian, although Wei County did not make any contributions, but his ability is obvious to all, during this time in Zhenyuan County, he helped Yan Liang take care of government affairs and handled it very well.

"No!" The corners of Wei Xian's mouth grinned, although he was not too guarded, and he did not have any actual military power, but he was the same military commander, which was also a very good reward, at least he could have the right to speak at the top of Northern Xinjiang.

After Wei Xian received the order, he didn't wait for Liu Tai to speak, everyone looked at Dongfang Jue, if it is said to be outstanding, among the three emerging figures, it should be regarded as the most outstanding in Dongfang Jue, if Liu Tai is not rewarded, how can it be said.

Feeling the gaze of everyone, Dongfang Jue touched his nose in embarrassment, looked at Liu Tai, very hesitant, the clan rules are in front, Dongfang will never dare to openly resist, but Liu Tai does not reward him, doesn't it mean that his ability is not good?

"Lingyin" Liu Tai looked at Dongfang Jue, very embarrassed, Dongfang Jue's ability can be said to be absolutely no less than Guo Jia, the two worked together to solve a lot of big problems, but Dongfang Jue's family, hey

"In this way, Lingyin, your reward, for the time being, you will be staked first, well, of course, your position is still the king's staff, and you can follow the king's side at any time to give advice, and when the king goes to the plains with you, persuade your people, and then make other arrangements." The reward is indispensable, in fact, if you have been a staff member, Liu Tai's close ministers are much higher than any reward, after all, by Liu Tai's side, it is equivalent to participating in all major events in Northern Xinjiang at any time, even if Guo Jiaxunyu and others can't compare.

"Thank you for the great kindness of the lord, and my subordinates are willing to follow the lord to the death." Dongfang Jue's expression was very moved, Liu Tai, as the overlord of one party, was actually willing to work hard for a staff member, although the Qingzhou Plain is not very far, but it will take more than a month to travel from Huacheng, and this is just to let Dongfang Jue get the consent of the clansmen!

"You kid" Seeing Dongfang Jue's touched look, Liu Tai shook his head with a wry smile, and then looked at the ranks of military generals, his expression suddenly brightened, his eyes looked at Huang Zhong, and a playful smile hung on the corner of his mouth and said: "Han Sheng, I heard that you have gained a lot of benefits in Luoyang, and there are even dozens of them."

Hearing Liu Tai's words, Huang Zhong, who was sitting on the soft couch, pulled his face, got up with a wry smile, and said to Liu Tai: "Your Highness, these women are all sent by hundreds of officials of the imperial court, and the last general will not dare to accept it, after returning to Hanoi County, the last general will start to prepare, put the women back to the township, and let them find a good family to marry." ”

"These women are all the kindness of the officials of the court, what do they know besides pleasing men? In the homes of hundreds of officials, they enjoyed a prosperous and wealthy life, and sending them into the homes of ordinary people would only harm others and themselves, so let's do it, these women, if Han Sheng likes them, you can choose a few, and how about the rest are arranged by this king? Liu Tai saw Huang Zhong's nervous look, smiled, and said with a consultative look.

"Oh? Since His Royal Highness wants it, the last general will send it all" Huang Zhong heard that Liu Tai was actually trying to please a woman, and a look of surprise flashed on his face, not only Huang Zhong, but most of the generals, including Dongfang Jue and others, all looked at Liu Tai with a puzzled look.

If you talk about it, where in the world are there more women than the gods in the palace, in the harem of the god king's mansion, there is no male surname, most of them are female surnames, and they are all carefully selected, the reason why this is the case is because Liu Tai doesn't like eunuchs, I heard that during this period of time, Liu Tai is also ready to start training the Fengyi army to guard the backyard of the god king's mansion.

"Hey, where did you all think of it, this king is prepared for the first-level military commander who was disabled in the war" Touching his nose and feeling the eyes of everyone, Liu Tai was very helpless, so he simply said what he thought.

In this civil war that lasted for more than half a year, the losses of the Tianci army were very heavy, according to statistics, at least 30,000 to 40,000 people had to be discharged, and among them, there were seven or eight deputy commanders and above, as well as the generals of the deputy generals were injured.

"Please punish Your Highness, it's the last general who wants to be crooked." Huang Zhong's face was a little ashamed, in this battle, Huang Zhong's Qinglin Army was the most miserable at any time, although many commanders in the Qinglin Army were still temporarily established, and they were injured in the battle, Huang Zhong didn't think about them

From now on, the Qinglin Army is only responsible for arranging the people's usual military service, and is not allowed to participate in the war. Liu Tai waved his hand, although the number of the Qinglin Army was close to that of the Tianci Army, but the officers of the Qinglin Army were all improvised, and the pensions after the death or disability were only half of the regular army officers, all of which were said to be very unfair to them.

"Do you want to remove the name of the Qinglin Army?" Guo Jia couldn't help but ask out loud, the matter of disarmament has a lot to do with Guo Jia and Dongfang Jue, as long as they will pay more attention.

"The Qinglin Army was renamed the Qinglin Battalion, no longer in the military system, from now on, those over the age of 18 who have served in the military, after two years of military service, can retire and return to the township, unless the results are particularly good, can not be directly called into the army, of course, if the front line is damaged, the Qinglin Battalion is the first important place for the supply of soldiers." Liu Tai nodded, since the Qinglin Army cannot participate in the war from today, naturally there is no need to retain the name of the Qinglin Army.

"Qinglin Battalion" Guo Jia next to Dongfang Jue nodded, in fact, changing the name is simply a change of soup and not medicine, if there is really a military emergency, the soldiers of the Qinglin Battalion still have to participate in the war, of course, Liu Tai made several other regulations, can indeed greatly alleviate the shortcomings of the lack of young and middle-aged men at the bottom of northern Xinjiang.

"My lord, at what size should the army be maintained? Is it still the twenty-five draws stipulated in the previous paragraph? Dongfang Jue looked at Liu Tai and asked out loud. During this period of time, after the Central Plains and people from all over the country poured into northern Xinjiang, the population of northern Xinjiang increased dramatically, and it was obviously inappropriate to draw one out of twenty-five.

"Still one out of twenty-five! Maintain the scale of 900,000 regular troops, the total number of 30 corps, of which the cavalry is set as 13 corps, 420,000 troops, the water division corps is expanded to four corps, the newly formed two sailor corps, the army commanders are Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, the remaining 13 corps are all organized as foot soldiers, well, later renamed the army, the army is mainly responsible for guarding the counties and counties, the pressure is relatively large, and the number is normal. Liu Tai said the thoughts in his head, among which the cavalry and foot soldiers have nothing to say, for the expansion of the regular army and the naval division, Liu Tai has long had an idea, and now that the Yellow Turban Rebellion has been pacified, it is equivalent to four years of stability, these four years, Liu Tai can fully prepare to attack the Japanese island and the major states in the northeast, and completely expand the northeast territory of the Han Dynasty to the Heilongjiang line.

"My lord, in the north, the role of the sailor is not very large, is it necessary to expand to four legions? The four legions are equivalent to 120,000 troops, plus logistics supplies, there are almost more than 200,000 people, and this military expenditure is a lot. Dongfang Jue frowned and said loudly, whatever is unreasonable, Dongfang Jue will be like Tian Feng, and he will directly speak and persuade him, and he doesn't know how to beat around the bush at all.

"It's necessary!" Liu Tai nodded, then stood up, took out a canvas from the table in front of him, and slowly unfolded it in front of everyone's eyes, only to see the topographic map of the northern frontier on the canvas, which was very tangible and colorful, and even marked the territory and strength of the Northeast countries, but what made everyone puzzled was that on the opposite side of the Three Korean Alliance, there was actually a large island, which looked about the same size as Youzhou.

"Lord, isn't this the Penglai Immortal Island that Xu Fu went to sea to find during the Qin Dynasty?" Dongfang Jue pointed to a large area of territory overseas and couldn't help but ask.

"Cut, what Penglai Xiandao, have you forgotten that in recent years, in the Liaodong area, there are often some short widows? These people are the people of this Japanese island, although the Japanese island does not occupy a large area, but the Japanese people in it are arrogant and arrogant, their emperor, self-proclaimed emperor, bewitching the people to say that they are the heirs of the gods, but they are adhering to the will of the gods to rule the people of the world, very arrogant, this king has long been to clean them up, but has not been able to free up. Liu Tai pursed his lips disdainfully, said the surname of the Japanese people, and then pointed to the center of the Japanese island, well, it is Heianjing, the place of faith of the Japanese people.

"Your Highness, how can the forces of this Japanese people be so scattered, and it seems that Heiankyo, the capital of the Japanese people, is not very important in the country?" Zhao Yun on the side looked at the forces around Heianjing on the map, and couldn't help but have a confused look in his eyes, and asked out in confusion.

In the past few years, Liu Tai has often sent spies to Wajima to investigate the situation and prepare for the expedition of the army in advance, but because of the language barrier, in addition to finding out that there are more soldiers in some areas, there is no detailed information at all, and even the real ruler in Wajima is not very clear who is today, but there is a saying that in Wajima, there is a very large power with women in power, as if it is a witch.

"Heh" Liu Tai shook his head, looked at Zhao Yun with a wry smile and said: "We don't know much about the situation of the Japanese people, it is rumored that the actual ruler in the Japanese country is not their emperor, but the warlords of all over the country, large and small, although these warlords are called kings, but they are no different from some of the princes of my Han Dynasty, when the decree is not clear, they often fight separately, if they decide the strongest, they can lead their troops to Heiankyo, and they are appointed as the prisoners of the country by the emperor of the Japanese people, and become the actual rulers, well, it is rumored that the army of the actual ruler, It is called the Shogunate Army, which is very different. ”

Liu Tai didn't know if there was any shogun in this era, so he could only say ambiguously, the current Wajima is still in the uncivilized era, and there are not many historical records, Liu Tai only knows that the current Wajima Emperor calls himself Emperor Chengwu, and he has been called the emperor for fifty-three years, and there are not many emperors who have been emperors for so long, even in Chinese history.
