At the end of December of the third year of the Chu calendar, the Xinye First Division had already returned to its garrison - it was much easier to return from Yizhou than to march into Yizhou!

However, only the main positions and main forces of all ranks returned, including the deputy division commander "Wei Yan", and almost the entire set of deputy positions remained in Padang County.

Those who are currently being recruited and trained locally in Padang County, from the deputy division commander to the deputy platoon commander of the official New Field Army, as well as a thousand "veterans" - except for the fact that there are not many Ji Zao soldiers, it is almost a complete army system.

Because it was originally from a division, and the superiors and subordinates were familiar with each other, there was a division of labor in itself, and although it was to supplement the new army, there were 1,000 veterans there, and they could quickly adapt and master it.

This is also a common practice in modern army management - after the army goes out, the deputy stays in the headquarters and begins to recruit and train soldiers in situ in case of emergency!

According to the agreement with the Marquis of Shu, the first division of Wancheng will also be withdrawn one after another year, and Zhao Yun and Fa Zheng will also be withdrawn at that time.

At that time, those who will stay in Badong County will be Wei Yan and Guo Huai......

For this decision, both the DPRK and the Privy Council actually had a small reaction - the two of them were too light in terms of age and seniority.

Moreover, Badong County is not an ordinary county, but as a pedal for Chu to enter Shu, and it is also the gateway for Yizhou to enter Chu.

It's just that Bai Tu is strongly supporting, and several bigwigs in the Privy Council also recognize the abilities of the two, so the "repercussions" have not caused any "impact".

After Wei Yan and Guo Huai learned the news, they were grateful for the king's trust at the same time, and they were also full of energy.

For Wei Yan and Guo Huai, Bai Tu is naturally relieved.

After all, there are two of them in history, one is "If Cao Cao comes from all over the world, please refuse it for the king; One is the "town of Guanxi" (Guo Huai: ??? ）。

Although both of them were still young at this time, it was more than enough to guard Badong County and beware of the Marquis of Shu.

In the blink of an eye, it's almost time for the New Year.

After a year, the Han court overturned its statement a year ago and praised Zhang Lu, who had applied for the award a year ago, as a loyal minister of the Han family.

and officially canonized Zhang Lu as the Marquis of Hanning, and gave Jiuxi - because of the far-reaching historical significance, it is impossible to give him the title related to "Hanzhong".

Liu Zhang's "begging for mercy" and Zhang Song's envoy obviously had an effect......

Although Liu Xie was dissatisfied that Liu Zhang's guy was so cowardly and incompetent, he simply lost the face of their old Liu family, but after hearing that the Chu army cut Badong County, he still agreed to Liu Zhang while being resentful...... Or rather, the requirements of the State of Chu.

After all, if he really completely turned his face with the Chu State now, as long as Zhang Lu held Hanzhong, even if the other auxiliary Han forces had been connected, they would not be able to reinforce Yizhou.

Facing the Chu army independently...... Even if it is only a part of the Chu army, what chance can Liu Zhang have? Or rather...... How long can it last?

Even if you want to "encircle Chu and save Shu", you can't get rid of the two roads of Shouchun Hefei in Huainan and Wancheng Xiangyang in Jingbei......

How easy is it to say?

What's more, if you really go all out with the Chu State, you must also beware of the backstabbing of the Wei State!

Especially after a round of games, the senior cadres of the state are now merging, and this-stirring stick is obviously more inclined to the Wei state, and after Yuan Tan and the Xiongnu alliance, the east and west of the state have the meaning of confluence, which makes the Han family even more afraid to take rash action.

If you do the math, even if Liu Bei, Marquis of Qi, with the power of Qingxu Erzhou, can take the initiative to go north and drag down the Wei State, Yonghou Ma Teng and Zhai Marquis Han Sui can use the elite of Xiliang to drive Zhuqiang to resist the Xiongnu and Gaogan in the state......

The remaining Zhenghou Zhang Yan and Saihou Yang Feng can have the effect of "encircling Chu and saving Shu"?

I am afraid that even if Gao Gan, Yuan, and Xiongnu were persuaded to drag the Wei State and the Marquis of Qi to Huainan at the same time, it may not be effective - after all, Huainan has many water systems, and water warfare is a reserved project of the Chu State.

Even if it's a line of Wancheng......

Who knows how much plate armor Chu himself left?

Liu Xie doesn't feel sorry for his imperial uncle Liu Zhang, but also feels sorry for Yizhou.

Finally, from the map, it seems that the auxiliary Han forces have two-thirds - now looking at the map every day, but Liu Xie's biggest hobby.

Therefore, in the end, Liu Xie still pinched his nose and agreed to canonize Zhang Lu and mediate the dispute between Chu and Shu......

It's just that Zhang Lu took such a big advantage because of Baitu's "bravery", but he was still a little "dishonest".

After Bai Tu returned to Jinling from Huiji, he learned a piece of news that was not very good, but not too bad.

Previously, Chasing Fengwei had discovered that some of the aid workers sent by Hanzhong to Wudang County harbored deeper secrets, and even ...... It's not just as simple as probing the secrets of the Chu State or secretly preaching.

If it's the latter, Bai Tu won't care too much.

After all, in the water conservancy project in Wudang County, a large number of laborers, a large number of cultural and sports activities, and condolence performances have also been arranged, which are very fulfilling, and they are paid a lot of money.

In contrast, what is the competitiveness of a missionary who chatters in private and is afraid of being discovered?

It is true that many laborers from Hanzhong have begun to accept Bai Xue......

It's just that these people's "secret operations" have made Bai Tu a little confused, and the wind catcher has been investigating.

Because the other party has not done anything out of line, and Bai Tu wants to "fish", he has not moved them.

It wasn't until a few days ago that a deep believer with a mission was finally inspired by Bai Xue and secretly revealed what he knew to the Wind Catcher!

It turns out that these Heavenly Master Dao believers have a confidential mission......

It's looking for Ihime!

After Bai Tu learned the news, his heart immediately let go of most of it - he originally thought that they had some big conspiracy...... That's it? That's it?

Think about what happened to the snake cultivator at the beginning......

In order to find the so-called ancient gods, crazy "archaeology", a fierce operation, the final found Ba Snake Ji is really only archaeological significance!

I've seen a lot of Yi Ji Bai Tu, and now the most useful thing is not Yu Ji, who can sit in the gongkou...... Kyoguchi Castle!

However, this time the Heavenly Master Dao is looking for a strange Ji, the provenance really makes Bai Tu a little concerned - if it is an archaeological Ji, Bai Tu will definitely ignore it.

When they find it, they can collect it themselves......

However, the Yi Ji they are looking for is not very old, and it does have something to do with Taoism, and it was twenty years ago that she became famous...... Huang Tianji!

Twenty years ago, the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao plotted to overthrow the Han Dynasty, although he was betrayed by his disciples and had to raise troops in a hurry, but he still relied on the wide number of followers of the Yellow Turban Sect to set off the Yellow Turban Rebellion in 28 counties in seven states.

In the world of Castle Hime, there is no way to launch any large-scale battles without Hime-made soldiers, so the "uprising" is either the defender of a certain place, or quickly occupies a certain place and gains control of Castle Hime, or ...... It was when the blood was allied and the oath was sworn to raise the army!

And the latter is generally troublesome.

It's not that the Iki who appeared during the uprising was stronger, but because I was able to give birth to Iki during the uprising, it means that the dynasty already has a very serious internal worry, otherwise the dynasty itself will suppress the birth of Ihime.

As for the birth principle of the concubine, all dynasties have regarded it as a top secret, after all, no one wants the appearance of the concubine that the dynasty cannot control, and the more common concubine is the "family concubine", which is generally born from a long-standing and powerful family - the principle is also a secret.

Even in Bai Tu's view, the so-called secret, in fact, they themselves do not know much.

For example, now Bai Tu also knows that family concubines are generally formed after the death of female members of the family, but no one can say the specific principle, only knowing that the family is strong can contribute to this transformation.

If it is said that he has studied Yiji the most, I am afraid it is still the court of Chu State - after all, Gan Ning has personally created Yiji, and Bai Tu also used his character to attract Yu Ji's appearance......

At least Bai Tu knows that some of Yi Ji and Cheng Ji used to be real human beings, and under certain opportunities, they will transform into Yi Ji, and after Yi Ji is placed in the city and connected to the system dominated by Chinese culture, they will be transformed into Cheng Ji, and if they settle in the ancestral hall and protect the clan, they will become Jia Ji.

However, the birth principle of Huang Tianji is still a mystery, and its effect is also very destructive......

With the "unreasonable" forcible manpower extraction, as long as the city is conquered, it can immediately "coerce" all the manpower, and can use cheap manpower and simple material resources to quickly "train" a large number of Yellow Turban troops.

The Yellow Turban Army itself was very weak, with extremely inefficient training and difficult military discipline, but it had the characteristics that best suited the rebel army - the more numerous, the higher the morale, and when the battle situation was superior, the morale increased significantly.

It is best suited for battles with many enemies and a large tailwind......

Weakness naturally means that when there is a headwind, the combat effectiveness is weak, and it is easy to scatter birds and beasts, and it is impossible to fight a tough battle.

However, there is also an advanced class of troops, "Yellow Turban Warriors", which not only has the strength of no less than the wood and stone generals, but also has the ability to encourage the Yellow Turban Army to form a wonderful linkage.

The most important thing is that the Yellow Turban Lux itself also has the ability to train the Yellow Turban Army, but it cannot be "coerced" and unable to train the Yellow Turban Lux Shi, so although there is only one Huang Tianji, the Yellow Turban Rebellion blossomed everywhere in just one month in the early days......

Fortunately, Huang Tianji's training of Yellow Turban wrestlers was also extremely harsh, and he needed to collect manpower from the most fanatical believers, so the number was limited.

Otherwise, if there are enough Yellow Turban wrestlers, theoretically the weakness of the Yellow Turban Army can be overcome by most of them and become able to fight tough battles, and then the Han family will be really in trouble.

And Huang Tianji herself, like Yiji in Yizhou, has the ability to participate in the battlefield - although she does not fight directly, Huang Tianji can greatly boost the morale of the Yellow Turban Lux and the Yellow Turban Army, weaken the negative effects of the Yellow Turban Army, and even ...... Affect the weather to a certain extent and within a certain range!

This made the main force of the Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao, and at the beginning, even Lu Zhi, the general of the DPRK and China, was repeatedly deflated.

If it weren't for the late Yellow Turban Uprising, when Zhang Jiao was trapped in Guangzong, Huang Tianji disappeared, so that since then, the number of Yellow Turban wrestlers has decreased without increasing, and there is no Huang Tianji directly participating in the battlefield, Zhang Jiao was directly besieged to death in Guangzong...... I am afraid that the Yellow Turban Rebellion will not quickly turn into a situation similar to that of banditry everywhere.

At the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they rushed to cut down the big tree of the Han Dynasty, but after the Battle of Guangzong, although the Yellow Turban Army still caught fire everywhere, and even "rekindled" it a few years later, but it was only to the extent of kicking its trunk and shaking off some dead branches and leaves.

Zhang Jiao heard from nowhere that Huang Tianji was currently in the Chu State...... In Koto, to be exact!

However, when it was mentioned in this way, Bai Tu remembered that Yu Ji was also in Jiangdong at the beginning, and he had to meet the Ming Lord, could he know something?

It's just that Bai Tu is really not good at asking.

After all, if Yu Ji really knew, since he didn't take the initiative to mention it, he definitely didn't want to say it, and this matter was not within Yu Ji's scope of duty, and Bai Tu couldn't force him......
