Spring went to autumn, a number of summer showers fell, and the osmanthus tree planted by the charming woman in the Diaoyu City also quietly grew.

The osmanthus flowers bloomed, and the fragrance permeated the entire Diaoyu City, causing many children to run outside the state pastor's mansion when they were free, and they did not dare to climb the wall, for fear that the fierce and vicious old men inside would come out and beat people, and only dared to stretch out their heads and desperately sniff the fragrance of those osmanthus flowers.

Since the relocation of King Wen's Mansion and the Five Divisions to Chengdu Mansion, Diaoyu City has been relatively lonely, and the Wenwang Mansion, which has countless people entering and leaving every day, has also become the state pastor's house, and the owner has become Song Kai, who is also the state pastor of Yuzhou, and the rules are relatively strict.

On the afternoon of this day, Song Kai sat by the lake in the backyard of the state pastor's mansion, sitting opposite a table with a young man in black, on which there was a chessboard, on which the black and white sons were scattered into countless pieces.

Compared with half a year ago, Song Kai, who is currently the dean of the Mobile College and concurrently serves as the governor of Yuzhou Prefecture and the commander of Diaoyu County, is more mature, with a long crown and a broad belt, a blue luxurious brocade robe embroidered with moire, a beard, a rough and elegant demeanor, and many Yuzhou daughters have been fascinated by him over the years, crying and wanting to marry him.

The young man sitting in front of Song Kai looked two or three years older than him, wearing a purple and gold crown, wearing a set of black daqi embroidered with silver python on the outside, and a light-colored collared simple coat inside, dark blue bottoms, and pure black boots.

Seeing Song Kai glancing at his clothes from time to time, Yao Ruoyu grinned, brushed the sunspot in his hand, and smiled unexpectedly: "You go and buy a set too! Every time I come over, you wear this official uniform, do you show me that you are honest, or do you deliberately pretend to be poor?"

The corners of Song Kai's lips pulled slightly, and he suddenly put down a white piece in the corner of the chess game, and said indifferently: "Get used to it, this dress is very good-looking, there is no need to change it." ”

"That's a must!" Yao Ruoyu smiled and put down a child casually, "The official uniforms are all ordered in Jinsebuzhuang, can they not look good." ”

If he had stabilized his temperament for half a year as an official here, Song Kai might really roll his eyes directly and snort coldly: "It's very fun to advertise your own industry, right?"

"Oh, don't do this!" Yao Ruoyu grinned, he still had a bit of demeanor when he didn't speak, but unfortunately his nature was undoubtedly exposed as soon as he spoke, "Who made you refuse to participate in the first place, Chaozan and Xunhuan's business is better than my cloth village, and it will be crazy to make money." ”

Thinking of all the things in the past six months, Song Kai couldn't help but smile a little on the corner of his lips.

After Yao Ruoyu returned from Hangzhou, he ordered the establishment of a new Ministry of Commerce, which was specially responsible for all the salt, iron, cloth and other businesses in Dawen, and there were separate departments responsible for the corresponding business, such as the Mining and Iron Department, the Cloth Department, the Horse Department, and the Grain and Grass Department.

As the saying goes, fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, Yao Ruoyu threw all the heads of these departments to his cronies, such as the cloth belongs to himself, the ore and iron belong to Fu Chaozan, and the horses belong to Li Yilin, among which the Bai family also got a share of the salt business.

Monopoly can make a lot of money, in the past six months, everyone almost does not need to open the back door to earn private money as before, one by one to make a lot of money, and those who have not been able to grab jurisdiction are red.

The two played against each other for a while, Song Kai and Yao Ruoyu were busy with affairs on weekdays, how could they have spare time to study chess, both of them were unreasonable, and the chess game was chaotic, and in the end, Yao Ruoyu couldn't bear it, waved his sleeves and messed up the chess pieces, pouting and saying, "No more." ”

Song Kai smiled, and did not protest the fact that he was about to win, picked up the drink and took a sip, and said, "Do you want to go there and have a look?"

"Nonsense!Otherwise, what am I going to do," Yao Ruoyu smiled, got up and shook his clothes, and asked casually, "How are you doing?"

Song Kai replied: "I just re-filtered it three days ago to ensure that every soldier is a consummation of the three realms, and the battalion generals and subordinate generals are also served by the five realms and the four realms respectively, all of which were secretly recruited half a year ago, and their identities have also been checked, and there is no problem." ”

Yao Ruoyu bowed slightly, walked out of the state pastoral mansion side by side with Song Kai, walked around the city, went out from the north, walked into the deep mountains, passed through several defense lines, and in no moment, they had already entered a valley.

Before they walked in, the two of them sensed that the blood in the valley was surging, and when they showed their identities and walked into the valley, the valley was a basin, as far as the eye could see, there were several huge camps, which were full of people, armor, and martial arts.

From the height of the valley mouth, you can see that there are three camps on the left side of the basin, and more on the right, with a full six camps.

The soldiers in the three camps on the left are all dressed in red and green chain mail, helmets in the shape of eagles' heads, several iron feathers on their shoulders, and weapons in their hands are large swords.

The armor and weapons of the three camps on the right are also the same, short-sleeved iron armor with heart goggles, and a short shield on each arm, they do not hold weapons such as knives and guns, but wear a pair of steel fists in their hands.

At this moment, the two armies are exercising, and every time they shout in unison, they shake the valley more than once, if it weren't for the spiritual array arranged at the edge to isolate the movement, it is estimated that the Diaoyu City not far from here can hear the sound here.

Yao Ruoyu and Song Kai watched quietly for a while, and it was not until the drill was over that they walked down the valley and walked straight to the camp on the left.

As soon as they appeared, they alarmed the sentry in the first camp, and when they saw the people clearly, the sentry hurriedly ran into the camp, and within a moment, they saw Yu Jieyi, who was wearing military uniform, accompanied by three burly strong men, walking out of the camp quickly.

"Brother Demon!" Before she got closer, Yu Jieyi was already overjoyed, and then quickly ran to the front, hugged Yao Ruoyu, and whined, "You are finally here, Brother Kai is too inhumane, he has been locking people here, he has been out twice in the past six months, and he is still pinching the time, it's too much!

Seeing the little daughter's posture of the heroic commander in the past, the three battalion generals who followed behind him all looked embarrassed, Yao Ruoyu was also a little helpless, pulled up the long-legged royal sister in his arms, and said with a wry smile: "Anyway, they are all generals, pay attention to your image!"

"No matter! The world is big, and the demon brother is the biggest!" pursed her small mouth, Yu Jieyi crossed her fingers against her chin, and made a pitiful look, "Hurry up and let the family go out! It's been half a year, and people haven't even finished visiting Diaoyu City!"

After a half-year, Yu Jieyi is now much more neat and sassy, but there are also a little more vicissitudes between her eyebrows, Yao Ruoyu was also a little distressed when she saw this, and turned her head to look at Song Kai, who was expressionless, and said lightly: "Just half a day." ”

"One day, ah no, two days!" Stretching out two fingers, Yu Jieyi looked at Song Kai pitifully, seeing that he didn't react, she could only look at Yao Ruoyu, who covered her head and said with a wry smile: "Kaikai, or ...... A day and a half?"

Song Kai frowned, and finally nodded in agreement, and immediately Yu Jieyi cheered, took off her helmet and threw it to the person behind, waved her hand and smiled: "In the past two days, you have worked hard to train the army, and when the eldest sister comes back, I will bring you good food." ”

These three battalion generals are all burly men, where would they be as greedy as her, but it seems that they have suffered under Yu Jieyi's hands, and the three of them nodded solemnly and said, "Congratulations to the eldest sister!"

Yao Ruoyu was worried when he saw this, and he didn't say anything, grabbed Yu Jieyi, who was about to slip away, and said with a smile: "What's the hurry, it's rare for me to come once, first accompany me to walk around here, and then give you a day and a half off." ”

"Two days, two days, ......" Yu Jieyi muttered, seeing Song Kai's black face, she could only smile and follow the two of them to the three camps on the right.

The movement here just now had already alarmed the army over there, and before a few people approached, seven people had already walked out of it, led by a burly figure, with a serrated ring broadsword hanging from his waist, and it was Geng Rui, the old department of the Purple Flame Qi Army.

Seeing Yao Ruoyu, Geng Rui came in a tiger step, knelt on one knee without waiting to get closer, and said in a deep voice: "Geng Rui, the commander of the trapped army, has seen Lord Wen. ”

"Commander Geng, please get up first," helping him up, Yao Ruoyu looked at the six people behind Geng Rui, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "It's been a hard time. ”

"It's not hard!" Shaking his head, Geng Rui grinned and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, "To be honest, when I was there in Quzhou before, I would dream every day that I was still in the army, thanks to the prince who didn't care about Geng Rui's previous bad deeds, and gave me the opportunity to lead the army again, happy, haha, happy!"

Seeing his unhappy appearance, Yao Ruoyu couldn't help but smile, and said, "This time, I came here to see how your trapped army and the mandarin duck army are doing." ”

"Don't worry, Lord Wang!" mentioning the military, Geng Rui's face was solemn, and he hugged his fists and said, "The six battalions of the trapping army are all good men. ”

Looking at the six battalion generals behind him, Yao Ruo smiled foolishly: "Just by looking at the seven of you, you can see it!

Seeing King Wen praising in person, the six battalion generals were full of joy.

After returning to Wenbang half a year ago, Yao Ruoyu quietly established two new armies, with Yu Jieyi and Geng Rui as commanders respectively, and then asked Song Kai, who had just been transferred to Yuzhou Prefecture, to open up a valley in Diaoyu Mountain as a training place.

The two armies were named the Mandarin Duck Army and the Trap Army, the former was modeled by Yao Ruoyu after the Iron Eagle Swordsman created by the Qin general Sima Cuo, and the latter was modeled after the Wei Wushu of Wu Qi, a famous Wei general in the early Warring States period.

Of course, in order to avoid the suspicion of others, Yao Ruoyu deliberately renamed the two as Mandarin Duck Sword Pawn and Trap Warrior.

Yu Jieyi is a general of the Five Realms, so the Mandarin Duck Army and the Thunder God Army are both 9,000 people, and Geng Rui is the commander of the Six Realms, it is too wasteful to be in charge of only 9,000 people, Yao Ruoyu simply waved his pen and expanded the trapping army into six battalions, a full 18,000 people.

In the past six months, the two armies have been training here all year round, and sometimes sneaking out to fight with the Shaanxi Jin soldiers, so although it has only been half a year, almost everyone in this area is an elite of a hundred battles.

In addition to building these two new armies, Yao Ruoyu also handed over the training methods of the Warring States period to Jiang Siyu and Chen Meng, and also made the Red Shirt Army and the Tiance Army become Xuan-level and yellow-level troops respectively.

Although in the past half a year, Dawen'an has recuperated, and the literary and artistic army has never moved, making the world think that they are recuperating from the loss of vitality from the attack on Sichuan and Shu, but in fact, the literary and artistic army has been expanded again and again, and its strength is far better than at the beginning.

Today's literary and artistic army, the Night Dragoon Army, the Thunder God Army, the Rock Tiger Army, the Red Shirt Army, the Beast God Army, the Cold Iron Army, the Condor Army, the Tiance Army, and the Mandarin Duck Army, a total of nine military towns at the level of three battalions, plus the six-battalion size of the trap army, the entire 99,000 army, close to 100,000, if you add the garrisons in various places, the number is even more ugly.

Moreover, the literary army itself, the heaven-level dark night dragoon, the ground-level Xichu Lei cavalry, the Xuan-level Mandarin Duck swordsman and the redwood archer, and other armies belonging to the yellow level, all of them are not ordinary troops, and in terms of strength alone, they are enough to be compared with the 500,000 army.
