After separating from Bai Zixiang and Bai Qi, Bai Qianye fell into deep thought.

Although everyone can hear the conversation between Bai Qianye and his son through their souls, because it involves personal privacy, everyone didn't listen, and of course they didn't know what Bai Zixiang said, which caused Bai Qianye's mood to be low after he came back.

Bai Qianye didn't speak, and everyone didn't ask, but hurried quietly. At this time, Ji Xingkong leaned over on her little white horse, gently turned Bai Qianye's arm with her elbow, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Bai Qianye was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "It's not that it's low, but I feel a little tricky." ”

"The latest news that my father gave me just now, our upcoming Jiangdao County should have been mixed in with the spies of the Western Alliance, and it should be someone from a neutral place hired by them to do this, after all, the difference in appearance is still very obvious. ”

Zhang Liang on the side frowned and frowned, "I, the governor, have not yet taken office, and I have already begun to find trouble." ”

"Is there any good way?" Bai Qianye asked.

Zhang Liang squinted his eyes, pondered for a long time, and then took a deep breath, "There is a way, but I need your support." ”

"Nonsense, can I not support it?" Bai Qianye pursed his mouth, touched his nose, and snorted coldly, "People have already bullied me to the door of my house, or they have already entered the house, if I am still honest, will they go to the house to reveal the tiles?"

Zhang Liang smiled, "That's easy, after arriving in Jiangdao County, recruit soldiers first, and the source of soldiers is all the men and women in Jiangdao County who do not have the status of residents of the empire." ”

"And women?" Qin Qiong's brows furrowed, "It's not appropriate for women to go to the battlefield?"

Zhang Liang smiled slowly, then shook his head, "I didn't say that women should be put on the battlefield." But we have to think about it, that is, the spies who come in are not necessarily men, they are probably women, right?"

Qin Qiong nodded.

Zhang Liang continued, "And in terms of age, it may not be a young adult, right? It is very likely to be an old man, so it is easier to avoid the focus of our examination, right?"

Qin Qiong pursed her lips and nodded again.

Zhang Liang pursed the corners of his mouth and said, "In this case, as long as there are people who do not have the identity of the empire, all the soldiers are conscripted, all the young and strong men are filled into the first-line troops, and the male old men and all the women are all in the second-line logistics troops, responsible for cooking, feeding horses, digging trenches and other work, anyway, it is to find a name, so that these people without identity can all be controlled, and the military camp is the best place to control." ”

Bai Qianye nodded, "Okay, you can draft the document now, and when you get to Jiangdao County, just send it directly, the sooner the better, I don't have time." ”

Zhang Liang nodded, "Brother Qin Qiong."

There is still something to be done. ”

"Please give the Governor's order!" Qin Qiong suddenly clenched his fists with both hands very seriously, making Zhang Liang instantly embarrassed.

"Haha!" Bai Qianye hadn't laughed yet, but Ji Xingkong on the side laughed, covering his mouth with one hand and pointing at Qin Qiong with the other, "I said Qin Qiong, I thought you were very boring before, but I didn't expect you to be a very interesting person sometimes." ”

Qin Qiong was already quite difficult to hold back her seriousness, but when she heard Ji Xingkong's joke, she couldn't help it in an instant, and she also laughed out loud.

Zhang Liang shook his head, "Qin Qiong, after you go back, you will be responsible for recruiting troops, Jiangdao County has a total of three cities, seven counties, and the current strength is about 30,000 people, which is basically a city of 10,000 defenders." ”

"I checked the information last night, because it is now a time of peace, so the empire's military strength is not too much, these 30,000 people are the troops of the county lord of Jiangdao County, the empire will not provide a penny for support, it is all up to us to be self-sufficient. ”

Bai Qianye squinted his eyes and asked, "What is the upper limit of the empire's private army strength for a lord of my level?"

"50,000," Zhang Liang replied directly, "It is the strength of a corps, and the current strength is far from reaching the upper limit, and at the same time, it is the Northwest Army that can respond to our Jiangdao County." ”

"The Northwest Army is the regular army of the Great Qin Empire, with a total of 150,000 troops, because it has been on guard against the enemy situation on two sides, so it is a relatively large number of troops in all aspects. ”

Lu Bu came over at this time, "Then are we going to recruit troops and make up the upper limit of 50,000?"

Bai Qianye and Qin Qiong were stunned for a moment, each thinking about it. And Zhang Liang shook his head directly, "50,000 people? This is a war between the East and the West, how can 50,000 people be enough, at least 100,000 people must be replenished." ”

"100,000 people?" Qin Qiong touched his head, "100,000 people are okay, but there must always be a reason." ”

"Reason?" Zhang Liang smiled, looked at Ji Xingkong on the side, and directly gave Ji Xingkong a smile.

"For example, our little princess of the Heavenly Palace said that Jiangdao County is not safe in this place, and it is directly at the forefront of the empire's eastern and western battlefields, so it is proposed that a Janissary army of 50,000 people needs to be deployed. ”

Looking at everyone's surprised appearance with their mouths wide open, Zhang Liang smiled, "How about this reason?"

Ji Xingkong took a deep breath and glanced at Zhang Liang, "Why do I say that Qianye must have you, it turns out that you are real...... It's true...... It's very wise. ”

"The little princess praised it", Zhang Liang leaned over on the horse, and then continued, "Qianye can report this matter back to Fengdu, so that the royal family and the military department will know in advance, so they will not have any reason to use the topic to play, this is the first." ”

"Secondly, Qianye can properly ask the royal family and the military department to ask for some manpower, if

If you can't have enough manpower, you need to equip it. After all, the little princess of the Heavenly Palace is now at the forefront of Daqin's side, and if she rushes to this point, Daqin's royal family and military department must be generous. Even if the little princess hasn't made an inch, she can't make a mistake. Safety first. ”

Bai Qianye nodded, then smiled, "Zhang Liang, it's really a very good thing to have you, I'm really very lucky." ”

"By the way, when we set off, I sent someone to inform Xiang Yu and Xiang Shicong, and they should have set off with the fifty Wenzhi candidates that Grandpa prepared for us. ”

"Xiang Shicong is not suitable to be a governor because of his identity, but he is a suitable person for supervision. ”
