A month passed quickly. These days, the three states of seclusion and coolness have been developing in an orderly manner. The college and the medical school, which had been discussed, have gradually developed. At least in some small counties in Youzhou, all the primary school matters have been carried out, and Mr. Teaching has been hired, just waiting for the students to enroll. As for the middle school, it still needs a certain amount of time to arrange.

And the recruitment of the medical soldiers and the navy has also been completed, and now they have begun to learn slowly and skillfully under the teaching of Hua Tuo and his disciples. It's just that the progress of the water army is not too good. After all, there are no ships in the north now, and even if you want to train a navy, there is no way, so the training is only in accordance with the practice of Youzhou, starting from the training of physical fitness and military discipline.

And in the five days after Liu Yao's wedding, the envoys of the princes had already left one after another. The envoys of those small princes had naturally left at the first time, and they were not very bold, for fear that something would happen if they continued to stay on Liu Yao's territory.

Then there was the first one to leave. After being humiliated by Liu Yao like this, he was already angry in his heart. He had already prepared to leave. As for the individuals under his hands, there is really no progress in the Youzhou Research Institute, no matter how you look at it, it is an undefended place. And Xu You was also more suspicious, and he didn't dare to do it for a while, so he had no choice but to leave Jixian County with nothing.

Liu Yao was still a little disappointed in this, but he was ready early. Once Xu You dares to make any moves, then he Liu Yao will definitely not leave half a point of affection, and will definitely kill all the people around Xu You without hesitation. As for that, you can stay. If he is willing to surrender, it is not bad, if he is unwilling, he can also take it as a hostage and blackmail Yuan Shao. In order to appease people's hearts, Yuan Shao will definitely not refuse. It's just a pity that things didn't develop as Liu Yao thought.

Then Jian Yong left, and Jian Yong himself had nothing to do with Liu Yao. And he wasn't worried that Liu Yao would assassinate him in front of so many people, so he walked frankly.

The last one to go was naturally full of favor, but he waited until Liu Yao called him all the 12,000 horses. I left happily. Of course, it's also because of this pet who doesn't understand horses that he is so happy. If there is a person who understands horses here, he will find that the quality of the horses that Liu Yao handed over to Manzhong is uneven, and there are some high-quality Dawan horses. Just not much. There were only about 3,000 horses. The rest were at most medium war horses or horses that had retired from Liu Yao's army

But fortunately, they are all fully trained war horses, and Liu Yao will not cheat on this. As for how much combat power these horses have, Liu Yao doesn't know. For his army did not bother to use such inferior horses.

It's just that I don't know how Cao Cao would feel when he saw that he had spent almost all of his savings, and the horses he bought were not the best war horses. But even if you are dissatisfied, you can only be dumb and can't say that you have to eat Coptis chinensis. After all, it is very rare for Liu Yaoken to sell him horses. And to put it mildly, the price he Cao Cao offered was too low, and he Cao Cao was a little embarrassed. At this price, he could buy 12,000 horses, and he should burn high incense.

And in the past few days, there have been two good news from the research institute. Although it will take some time to research and build a warship. But the compass and the cement were two good things, but Ma Jun got them out.

After Liu Yao tested the compass, it was absolutely the same as the one he had used before, and the effect was very good. Immediately, Liu Yao ordered Ma Jun to make more and send it to every important general under Liu Yao's command, and now this compass is like a telescope, and it has become a necessary equipment for every confidant and general of Liu Yao.

As for the cement, it was a good thing, after it was developed by Ma Jun, Liu Yao listed him as one of the top secrets of Youzhou for the first time, and the others include printing, papermaking, soil steelmaking and other technologies that have this effect. And because the materials in this water are very convenient, the production of zuò is also fast and many, and the first batch of zuò was immediately sent by Liu Yao to important jurisdictions such as Huguan and Qiguan, and was used to cast the city wall to deal with the future war.

And these days, Liu Yao's own life has been good, enjoying the blessings of the Qi people. And he gave full play to his name as the first idler in Youzhou. As for that Guo Jia, he also did not waste the title of the second idler in Youzhou. The two of them had been idle all day.

It's normal for Liu Yao to be idle, it's always been like this. As for Guo Jia's idleness, it was because Liu Xin had gotten a new playmate Mi Zhen these days, so he abandoned Guo Jia without hesitation, and he Guo Jia didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

And after Mi Zhen lived in the General's Mansion, she played with Liu Xin all day long, but she was also very enthusiastic about the two daughters of the house, Cai Yan and Diao Chan, and the two girls also loved Mi Zhen, an innocent and lively little girl. It's like treating him like a sister.

And Mi Zhen also likes a big hero like the real Liu Yao in her heart, just like Diao Chan at the beginning. And Liu Yao also has some good feelings for Mi Zhen, to put it bluntly, between the two, it is also Lang You's concubine's intention, the difference is just the accumulation of feelings, maybe it won't take a year, he Liu Yao will get married again.

And on this day, he Liu Yao got a piece of news. I don't know if Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu said it, but there was movement at the same time. The three of them have already begun to prepare their soldiers and horses, ready to move towards Han Fu, Liu Dai, and Liu Xuan.

As for Cao Cao and Yuan Shu's side, Liu Yao's hands are not so long, and he can't care about them. But Jizhou on Yuan Shao's side borders Youzhou. Immediately, Liu Yao ordered Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu, who had already been prepared, to send troops.

These two people knew two months ago that they were going to send troops to Jizhou to cause trouble for Yuan Shao, so they had already geared up and couldn't wait. Now the time has come, and the two men each have sent out with three thousand light cavalry.

And in order not to attract Yuan Shao's attention, he Yuan Shao was on guard. Liu Yao also deliberately asked two people to enter Jizhou with a large army from Youzhou, and then enter Jizhou from the rear of Bingzhou, and Yuan Shao's Bohai County was in the easternmost part of Jizhou. In this way, you can avoid Yuan Shao's exploration horse to the greatest extent. can arrive in Jizhou safely and worry-free, waiting for the opportunity to give Yuan Shao a cold gun.

Of course, in order not to cause friction between Liu Yao and Yuan Shao, the six thousand light cavalry that Zhao Yun and the others carried were all changed into the clothes of horse thieves. After all, although there is discord between Liu Yao and Yuan Shao, how can I say that the two people are also peaceful.

Liu Yao sent troops this time to make trouble for Yuan Shao, or rather, he was nameless. If the people of the world know that Liu Yao sent troops to attack his Yuan Shao's rear, it will inevitably have a negative impact on Liu Yao.

But it doesn't matter if you change to the appearance of a horse thief. When the time comes, it would be nice to put everything on the horse thief. However, the standard equipment in Liu Yao's army has not been replaced, such as stirrups and horseshoes. Because these equipment are completely the key to the victory of his Liu Yao's army. Without the horseshoe and Ma Jun, Liu Yao's cavalry strength would drop a lot, and it was estimated that it would not be much higher than Yuan Shao's cavalry.

At that time, if it was not careful, it would be Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu who would have lost it. Liu Yao was willing to have this matter discovered by Yuan Shaohao, and he didn't want Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu to have something to do. And even if Yuan Shao found out that these people were sent by Liu Yao, he would not be afraid, anyway, as long as he Yuan Shao couldn't get any evidence, Liu Yao would not admit it when the time came. And Yuan Shao, who had just taken Jizhou, naturally did not have the strength to attack him, so Liu Yao could naturally sit back and relax and slowly develop his territory. (To be continued......)
