Zhang Lang pondered: "The Xichuan Shi clan intends to rebel, I will use them to open the knife, and the Shi clan in other places should not have much backlash!" glanced at Huang Yueying and said with a smile: "Don't worry!" ”

Huang Yueying was still a little worried, but considering the current financial situation, she didn't say anything more.

Now all the armies under Zhang Lang's command are being reorganized. Zhang Lang's plan is to reorganize the current army into the Longtao Army, the Tiger Wing Army, the Leopard Tao Army, the Blue Wolf Army, the War Bear Army, the Eagle Yang Army, the Western Regions Army, the Luoyang Army, the Pingnan Army, nine legions, each army plans to prepare 100,000 horses, different infantry and cavalry, the total strength will reach an unprecedented 900,000 troops, with Zhang Lang's current control of Xiliang, Chang'an, Hanzhong, Xichuan several regions, simply unable to support such a huge army, although Zhang Lang has the previously seized Mei Wu property as support, But this huge wealth to support such a large army would be depleted within a year. This is also the reason why Zhang Lang will hit those scholars with his idea. The Han Dynasty was founded for hundreds of years, and half of the country's wealth was in the hands of these scholars, according to Jia Xu's estimates, the property of the Xichuan scholars was enough to support an army of 900,000 for more than a year!

Of the nine major legions, the commander of the Long Tao Army is Zhang Lang himself, the most elite troops under his command, and the deputy generals are Pang De and Yan Xing; The commander of the Tiger Wing Army was adjusted to Huang Zhong; The chief general of the Leopard Tao Army is still Xu Huang; The leader of the blue wolf army will be Ma Chao; The main commander of the War Bear Army will be Zang Ba; The main commander of the Eagle Yang Army will be Ma Teng; The commander of the Western Regions Legion will be Zhang Liao; Wu Yi, the chief general of the Pingnan Army; The commander of the Luoyang Legion is Gao Shun.

In the Luoyang area, the three main forces of the Longtao Legion, the Yingyang Legion, and the Luoyang Legion are gathered; The Blue Wolf Army, the Pingnan Army, and the Tiger Wing Army are in Hanzhong; Leopard Tao's army is in Xichuan; The War Bear Army defended the Chang'an area; The Western Regions Legion is entrenched in the Western Regions. Although the strength of the Nine Legions is huge, but when it is distributed to various places, the strength of troops in each direction does not seem to be very large!

At present, the reorganization work has just begun, and the total number of troops is less than 700,000, far from reaching 900,000, and the ordnance and clothing are not yet in place. The reorganization work was very intense and cumbersome, and Zhang Lang let Zhuge Liang take full responsibility.

Nishikawa.

Those who participated in the rebellion were all confiscated. Other scholars also received a donation proposal from Fa Zheng on behalf of Zhang Lang. To say that it is an initiative is actually a request. The scholars were taken by Zhang Lang's prestige, and they were afraid of the reality that the scholars in front of them were confiscated, so they had to hand over most of their property as required. Watching the truckloads of belongings being taken away, these people are like knives! The hatred in their hearts spread irrepressibly, otherwise they didn't dare to say it, but the hatred swallowed their hearts like wildfire!

Materials and property were continuously transported to Chang'an. Several new battalions built by Zhuge Liang have risen from the ground, enough to accommodate 400,000 horses. In all states, counties, and counties, the work of recruiting new soldiers is being carried out intensively, and due to the successive wars, many people have become homeless, so the number of people who come to enlist far exceeds the number needed, which is a good thing, and the official can calmly select good materials to join the army!

These days, the people of Chang'an always hear deafening shouts from outside the city from time to time, and the training of recruits is in full swing. There was a lot of discussion in the teahouse and wine shop, and nine out of ten people were talking about two things, one was the recent donation of money from the Xichuan Shi clan, and the other was the large-scale recruitment of new soldiers by the general, everyone seemed very excited, and they were all looking forward to the future, of course, some people were inevitably cold. For example, a poor scholar who often drinks in the Xinghuacun restaurant on Chang'an West Street always says bad things about Zhang Lang in the restaurant: "Hmph! How can you win the hearts of the people by abusing the warriors like this, and sooner or later they will be defeated! Someone was not convinced and asked, "Can the scholars represent the hearts of the people?" How do I think most of them are in favor of the Great General? The scholar pointed at his nose and scolded: "How can the people of Shengdou know the truth of righteousness!" The man smirked, and said nothing.

Several ordnance factories outside Chang'an City were brightly lit overnight, and the dense sound of striking iron and shouting sounded all night, and the noisy people in the city were a little restless!

At the same time as the training of the new army, Zhang Lang adopted Jia Xu's policy and thoroughly implemented militarized management in the Xiliang and Chang'an regions. For the registered men in the prime of life, military training must be carried out every month, and the people are militarized, and a village is a team of 100 people, and a hundred soldiers are dispatched, and the strong people in the village are selected as captains; A township is a thousand-man team, a thousand militiamen, and one person is selected as a thousand-commander; A county is a team of 10,000 people, and 10,000 militiamen are elected, and a commander is elected. All the militia in a county were under the command of Sima of the county, and Sima and Taishou worked hard to command the local militia to manage local law and order, and the power of Taishou was greatly weakened.

At the same time as increasing militarization, Zhang Lang also adopted Huang Yueying's Jianyi, which implemented a policy of light taxation and light taxation for all ordinary people, encouraging the reclamation of wasteland, and those who cultivated wasteland were exempted from three years of tax and hard labor; At the same time, the scale of military reclamation and official fields will be increased to ensure the supply of military rations; Encourage trade, eliminate many unreasonable tax systems, and make trade smoother.

Zhang Lang is reforming and expanding the army, and the other princes are not idle, they are all doing two things, one is to find a way to expand the financial route, and the other is to expand the military war. The expansion goals of the princes are very ambitious, Yuan Shao plans to expand the army to 1.2 million, Cao Cao plans to expand the army, Sun Jian's plan is also 800,000, the scale of the expansion of the army of all parties is unprecedented, almost all of them are doing their best to expand the army, everyone understands that if you do not use the strength to expand the army at this time, the defeat may be yourself.

This morning, Zhang Lang sat in the study and looked at the reports on the achievements of various localities that had just been sent.

Dong Ying, who was dressed in armor, trotted in, hugged her fists and said, "Big brother, news from the Western Regions." ”

Zhang Lang raised his head. glanced at Dong Ying, "What about people?" ”

Dong Ying immediately turned around and shouted outside, "Come in." ”

A dusty herald hurriedly entered the study, knelt down and said, "General, urgent report from the Western Regions!" Then he untied the bamboo tube on his back and presented it with both hands.

Dong Ying took the bamboo tube, walked to the bookcase, and handed it to Zhang Lang. Zhang Lang took the bamboo tube, picked off the sealing mud, and took out a roll of sheepskin. I opened it and looked at it quickly. His complexion changed. Turning his head to Dong Ying, he said, "Go and call Huang Yueying immediately." Dong Ying promised and ran out of the study.

Zhang Lang asked the herald: "What is Zhang Jian's current situation?" ”

"Returning to the Great General, Lord Changshi is leading the coalition army to confront the Great Moon Clan at the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains! In view of the strong strength of the Otsuki clan, Lord Changshi did not dare to act rashly! ”
