"What! Cao Thief Ann dares to do this! ”

"Ahh Cao thief! I will kill you! ”

After such a major event happened in Xuchang, the news also spread back to Chengdu as quickly as possible.

After Liu Bei received the news, the cry that he hadn't seen for a long time began to resound in the state pastor's mansion again.

In the lobby, almost everyone is sad.

There are also a few people who are different, and Zhang Sanye rolls his eyes indifferently. He didn't have a good impression of His Majesty the Emperor who was far away in Xuchang, so he would be bullied.

Pang Tong Fazheng is ambitious and wants to assist Zuo Liu Bei to achieve great things.

The Han family was humiliated, and Cao Cao's reputation was even worse, which was still a good thing for his side.

As for Liu Xian, the traverser doesn't have any sense of substitution.

"Yi De Zilong, hurry up and lead the army to save the Son of Heaven!"

After Liu Bei cried, he immediately shouted.

"My lord, my lord, please stop grieving. Now that the war is over, it is expected that it will be difficult to raise troops this year, and I also ask the lord to take a break from grief and indignation and take care of his body! ”

When Liu Xian heard this, even if he rolled his eyes in his heart, he had to answer, and he couldn't let Lao Liu play a one-man show.

Lao Liu also knew that it was impossible to really raise troops here now, so he just made a statement.

Of course, it can't be said that he is really not sad, but he is from the Han family. This Han world belongs to their old Liu family, and the emperor is bullied like this, and everyone will be sad and angry.

It's just that the current Lao Liu, like Boss Cao, is no longer just Liu Bei and Cao Cao back then.

Maybe they still have blood, but the status has changed. After all these years of experience, a seed called ambition began to take root in my heart.

"Cao thief is perverse, prepare to kill him sooner or later! To comfort the queen, comfort the people of the world, and be the soul of the loyal ministers of the Han family in the sky. ”

Liu Bei got the steps and went down the steps, and he didn't hold on to this problem.

Because there are more important issues to be solved......

"My lord, now Your Majesty is trapped in Xuchang. Next year, our army should go out of Hanzhong and Keyongliang Prefecture, and then attack Xuchang. Welcome the Son of Heaven back to the old capital. ”

"However, Yizhou has experienced several major wars, and the number of troops may be insufficient, and this year should focus on conscription drills." At this time, Pang Tong suggested.

Now the Jingzhou Corps is not counted, only Yizhou. Except for the soldiers defending the county in various places, the mediocre men and horses cannot be mobilized.

Only 30,000 Wudang Fei troops were left in Hanzhong (fully replenished after the war), and 10,000 troops were garrisoned in Yangpingguan.

Chengdu 30,000 cavalry, 10,000 foot soldiers.

At that time, he could mobilize less than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and Cao Cao had nearly 100,000 troops left in Chang'an.

Although the population of Yongliang and Yongliang is small, the local poverty can gather tens of thousands more as long as they are recruited.

For the sake of next year's war, we will have to recruit new troops no matter what.

Moreover, according to the original Ssangyong parallel strategy, it was necessary to send troops from Yizhou to the state, which was really a drop in the bucket.

"Well, what Shi Yuan said is very true. Yongnian, if you want to recruit soldiers in Yizhou without harming people's livelihood, how much can you conscript? ”

Liu Bei thought for a moment and felt like this, so he asked Zhang Song.

"This, my lord. Up to 20,000 ...... possible conscription"

Zhang Song came out of the queue, and he had to reply a little unnaturally.

can benefit from the state, Zhang Song's credit is only under Liu Xian and Pang Tong.

In addition, it is Yizhou Don't drive, it can be said that it is the current Yizhou faction's de facto person, although the official position has not changed, but the reward and compensation are very large.

"Huh?"

When Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.

Yizhou has indeed experienced several major wars, but its own population is not small. In addition, Nanzhong is stable, and Hanzhong County, which has a very large population.

How is it possible, only another 20,000 conscriptions?

"Lord, it's almost autumn harvest. Jiaozhou rice is rising very well, and it is expected that Jingyi will be popularized next year. ”

Liu Xian saw that Liu Bei was puzzled, and when he was about to ask out loud, he was busy reporting and diverting the topic.

"Okay, let's recruit 20,000 soldiers first, and then take charge of it for Yongnian."

"Haha, the blessing of karma. No, it's a blessing to all the people in the world. It can produce eight stones per mu, and with this high-quality rice seed, how much does Yeping think can be harvested per mu? ”

Lao Liu is not stupid, and he can see that Liu Xian has diverted the topic. Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he asked along the way.

"Lord, with the new agricultural method plus high-quality rice seeds. Not to mention the barren fields, the minimum yield is never less than eight stones. ”

"And the land in Yizhou is fertile, and there is Dujiangyan irrigation, and the yield per mu should not be less than twelve stones!"

Liu Xian roughly calculated that with this output of Yizhou alone, it was enough to feed the people and at least 300,000 troops.

Not to mention the tens of millions of living people, there are still millions.

"Good! All right! Prepare for the people of the world, thank you for the peace! ”

After listening to Liu Xian's introduction, Liu Bei did not carry the identity of his own master, but bowed deeply to Liu Xian very sincerely.

This merit alone is enough to shine in the history books.

After some miscellaneous matters were discussed, the meeting was considered a success. After everyone left, only Liu Bei and Liu Xian were left to go to the courtyard.

The two of them found a pavilion and sat on the couch.

"The right talent is ready to ask Yongnian, why should Ye Ping stop him?"

There was no one near Zuo, and Lao Liu simply asked directly.

"The lord wants to ask Yongnian, why can he only levy 20,000 new soldiers?"

Liu Xian shook the folding fan and walked casually, as if he had seen through it, and asked rhetorically.

"Indeed, what's wrong with that?" Liu Bei frowned, puzzled.

"My lord, do you know why this is so?"

"I don't know."

Lao Liu's past three years, or rather, since Liu Xian joined, it has been smooth sailing. occupied Jingyi Erzhou, and won the victories of Hanzhong and Jingzhou.

Now it can be described as full of spirit, and the hidden dragon is leaping.

But there are also two problems correspondingly, one is that the stride is too big, the foundation is weak, and the factional problem is budding.

The two are the problems faced by both Sun Cao's bosses, the family is strong.

The reason why only 20,000 new soldiers were levied out of the district was not because of Yizhou's background, it was precisely because of the problem of the family's strength.

This will not be Yizhou, which has been beaten by Lao Liu for three years and the people are tired of all kinds of industries. The people of Hanzhong were not moved to Guanzhong by Lao Cao, and the barbarian army source in Nanzhong was completely sufficient.

With a gritted tooth and a stamped foot, it is not difficult to gather 100,000 strong men in a big campaign.

Yizhou is not very chaotic, which means that the forces have not been reshuffled at all.

Haoqiang is still so many Haoqiang, and it is too normal to annex land and absorb population in the midst of war.

Although Liu Xian once offered advice, he used the strategy of migration to make Haoqiang not become bigger and stronger. But the difficulty of the real operation is by no means unimaginable.

It's so loud and angry, no one cares. If it is rude, it is very likely to cause chaos in the whole of Yizhou.

If you wave your hand, you will want the land to be owned by the state and liberate the slaves. Not to mention Yizhou, it is Jingzhou and even the whole world.

You Liu Bei is the biggest villain in history, worse than Cao Cao.

Moreover, this move harms the interests of the local family in Yizhou, as Zhang Song of the Yizhou faction is bound to the interests of the faction, he will naturally find a way to maintain it.

Jingzhou actually faces this problem, but fortunately, the eight major families in Jingzhou bind Liu Bei Group through Liu Xiansuan on the one hand.

On the other hand, Jingzhou has now stabilized, and their demands have transitioned from ensuring their interests in Jingzhou to the expectation of becoming the world's top family.

"This, can Ye Ping have good words to teach?"

Liu Bei also figured out the joint when he heard this, to put it simply, there are a lot of people hidden by the family.

"My lord, Xian has two strategies. One is to treat the symptoms, and the other is to cure the root cause. ”
