A week later, the entire Qingyun City had basically accepted Ye Qing's existence, and all the resistance forces had been silenced under Ye Qing's iron-blooded suppression.

Except for the necessary defensive soldiers in Ye Qing's hands, the others have all been concentrated in Qingyun City, ready to deal with the upcoming counterattack of Cao Yong.

Although Qingyun City has now been actually occupied by Ye Qing, his original master Cao Yong is still alive and well, and there are still 20,000 elite soldiers in his hands, which is a real trouble, and the slightest carelessness will bring disaster to Ye Qing.

In order to deal with the impending crisis, Ye Qing did not pay too much attention to the affairs in Qingyun City, except for military issues.

Ye Qing, who had just arrived in Qingyun, had to personally inspect the city defense and military camps almost every day to check the training and preparation of the soldiers.

Although Cao Yong's "elite soldiers" are not well trained, and their combat effectiveness will not be too high, after all, there are more people, and there are more ants that can bite elephants to death, let alone people.

The soldiers under Ye Qing's subordinates who have completed training and participated in the battle will not exceed four thousand, and this is still counting those who stayed in Dongjiang Town and Linjiang Town, and the rest of the soldiers are all a group of peasants who have just walked out of the fields, and even the most basic military training has not yet been completed, so it is okay to ask them to maintain law and order, and there is no need to count on them in battle.

On this day, Ye Qing went to the barracks to inspect the training of the soldiers as usual, and was always followed by dozens of personal soldiers, all of whom were extremely brave, their eyes were shining, inspecting the surroundings, wearing armor at all times, and serving in close quarters.

In order to prevent possible attacks, Fu Bo, as the chief steward of the Ye family, ignored Ye Qing's opposition for the first time, and selected the children of the good family from the army to form a personal guard, which was personally taught by Fu Bo and was responsible for Ye Qing's safety.

The camp in the north of the city, the original garrison of the city guards, has now been requisitioned by the Ye army soldiers, and the four thousand elite soldiers are really preparing for intense war, and they will be the hope of Ye Qing to stabilize the dominance of Qingyun City.

When I came to the barracks, I saw that the various departments were stationed according to the battalions and were in good order. When the soldiers saw Ye Qing, they all saluted solemnly: "See Lord Lord!"

Although there were several thousand troops in the army, the entire battalion was extremely quiet, and from time to time there were military songs and trumpet sounds, which showed the diligence of the training.

Ye Qing was very happy, he was also self-made, he used to have relatively few troops, and the training time was short, so he only selected the more common and simple types of troops for training.

Now, after several battles, the Ye army has gradually formed different types of troops, such as cavalry, crossbowmen, sword and shield soldiers, etc., although it is not very formal, but it has made a start, and it will be relatively simple when these types of troops need to be built in the future.

In this training, the pikemen are still the main force in the Ye army, and all the soldiers must first conduct a period of spear formation training, and in other arms training, corresponding to the more complex training methods and combined attack formations of other arms, the training of the spear formation is much simpler, only one move is "thorn", and the battle formation is also simple, just a simple phalanx.

After entering the barracks, Ye Qing didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered the army to assemble, he needed to check how the recent training was so that he could prepare for the next war.

Give the order: "Parade!"

The herald immediately gave the order.

I saw that the army formation was moving slowly, and the battalions stepped forward in turn, lined up in an army formation, and passed through the point platform, or drew swords for drills, or swept with guns, all in a uniform and orderly manner.

Although the various movements are still too rigid, and the conversion between formations cannot be transformed like jade, it is not comparable to ordinary soldiers, and I believe that after a period of reality and training, they will be a veritable elite division

After the drill was completed, Ye Qing left the barracks and came to the meeting hall of the Lord's Mansion.

In the council hall, although there are indeed some talents in the people, they are not yet qualified to recruit them, all of which has caused Ye Qing's talent shortage for a period of time.

The most direct manifestation is that when encountering major events, Ye Qing can't find anyone to discuss, Li Xin and the others are currently standard generals, it's okay to charge into battle, don't expect to make suggestions, so when discussing matters, it is generally Ye Qing's words.

"There is definite news that Cao Yong has reorganized his troops and horses, and has raised an army of 20,000 and is ready to attack in person. ”

After informing his generals of the information in their hands, Ye Qing began to make detailed arrangements for the next combat mission.

Ye Qing said slowly: "Li Xin!"

Li Xin bowed: "The subordinates are here!"

"Leave all the recruits to guard the city and maintain law and order in the city, and I will take four thousand elites with you to lead out of the city to face the battle!" Ye Qing issued a military order, and his anger rose.

"My lord, why don't you defend the city, the enemy army is only 20,000, and you will be exhausted after a long journey, and you will have to attack the city, which will frustrate your spirit. If our army takes the opportunity to fight again, it will surely win!" Li Xin admonished.

"Li Xin, your plan is good, but as a general, you can think so. is handsome, but can not only care about temporary gains and losses. ”

Ye Qing has high expectations for Li Xin, after all, he is his earliest right-hand man, and he is loyal enough to himself, and he has always wanted to train him to be a handsome talent who can take charge of himself.

Seeing that Li Xin was still a little confused, Ye Qing said again: "Our army obtained Qingyun City by sneak attack, although the people in the city did not say it, but it was inevitable that they would not bear it in their hearts. Only by defeating this attack head-on, after going through blood and fire, can our army have a dignified and upright momentum and become elite soldiers, and we can really gain a foothold in Qingyun City, and we can also take advantage of the situation to take a few small cities around!"

In fact, there is another point, Ye Qing didn't say it. It is that the Cao clan has been operating in Qingyun City for many years, and the forces in the city are intertwined, who knows if there is an internal response of the Cao family in the city, if there are people who should cooperate with the outside when defending the city, it will be a real big trouble!

Ye Qing didn't want to catch fire in his backyard when he was fighting.

The possibility of these two armies lining up a big battle in the field is very small.

He has the confidence that the soldiers he has trained can defeat the enemy head-on, establish his prestige, and truly turn Qingyun City into his base camp.

Li Xin also understood, and said in a deep voice: "Yes!"

On an open ground not far from Qingyun, in the military tent, Ye Qing changed into armor, sat on the main seat, and began to show a trace of his bearing as a person in power.

"Report ...... Cao Yong has already led his army to my camp thirty miles away!"

A probe came in and knelt and spoke.

"Okay!" Ye Qing's eyes lit up, and he said, "Pass the order, and the whole army will go out of the camp and line up!"

The dull horn sounded, the barracks rang out, and the soldiers took their weapons one after another, in an orderly manner, as the captain was out of the camp to be on guard.

After three horns, the military formation has been formed, only to see the halberd like a forest, the eyes of each soldier like fire, solemn.
