The guard beside Xiao Jingxuan stood aside with a tray. On both sides of the high platform stood two flags, one of which had the three words Fan Yangjun written on it. On the other side is a handsome flag with the character Xiao written on it.

The guards beside him took a slight step forward, and Xiao Jingxuan took out a letter of appointment from the tray and began to announce.

The first battalion of infantry, trapped in the camp, the main general Lei Ben. The battalion was basically made up of sword and shield men. All the soldiers were also selected from the whole army and were the vanguard in Xiao Jingxuan's hands.

handed over the letter of appointment in his hand to Lei Ben, who walked quickly on the stage, and Lei Ben knelt down to take the letter of appointment and the letter of the military talisman. Bow down.

Then, Xiao Jingxuan began to announce again.

The second infantry battalion, the Agni Battalion, the main general Liu Xiu, is the old man next to Xiao Jingxuan, and he has been training in the guard battalion for many years. The battalion is currently dominated by archers.

Then, the third battalion, the Beacon Battalion, the main general Wang Xuan.

The fourth battalion, the wildfire battalion, is the main general of the cow.

The fifth battalion, the fire battalion, the main general Tang Wanyi.

The sixth battalion, the Tianhuo Battalion, the main general Qi Biao.

The seventh battalion, the Flame Battalion, is the main general Pan Hu.

The eighth battalion, the fire camp, the main general Qu Qingshan.

After the commander of the infantry battalions was announced, the cavalry battalions followed.

1st Battalion of Cavalry. Storm Battalion, the main general Gongsun Sheng.

The second battalion, the Whirlwind Battalion, will be the main general.

The third battalion, the Hurricane Battalion, is the main general Yang Xiong.

The fourth battalion, the Liufeng Battalion, the main general Huangfu Song.

The fifth battalion, the storm battalion, is the main general Zhou Tong.

Originally, Xiao Jingxuan planned to let Xu Ce continue to serve as the chief general of the pro-guard battalion, but in the military camp, Xu Ce was still needed to help Xiao Jingxuan watch.

So Xiao Jingxuan asked Xu Ce to join the army as a recorder. He was in charge of the military law in the army, and transferred ten personal guards from the personal guards, and selected some from the army to form a military law team.

The military law team was transferred by Xu Ce and was specially responsible for military regulations and military discipline. It can also act as an Overseer in wartime.

For the time being, the guard battalion did not have a main general, but the four teams were in charge of each other.

The commanders of each battalion are all old men in the guard camp, and the team leaders and even the leaders of each team have also been trained in the guard camp.

Xiao Jingxuan believes that in time, Fan Yangjun will inevitably become a world-famous elite soldier.

As for the auxiliary soldiers with the largest number, Xiao Jingxuan did not despise it. This auxiliary army, Xiao Jingxuan is still of great use.

Xiao Jingxuan, the chief general of the auxiliary army, arranged for Guan Hu, who was meticulous in the center of the guard camp, to be in charge.

Now, the entire Pingzhou is under his control, and the first thing Xiao Jingxuan did was Juntun. This is also the first duty of the auxiliaries.

There is a lot of wasteland in Ping Chau, and there is also a lot of unowned land. Xiao Jingxuan established five large farms in each county for tuntian.

Each farm has about 400 people. All the auxiliaries participating in the military cantonment will be trained in the morning and will start in the afternoon.

It is not only tuntian, but also chicken, pig, fishing and hunting. For example, today, there is food before there are soldiers. There are soldiers to have power. Complement each other and are indispensable.

As a result, Xiao Jingxuan's affairs before the year ago were more complicated. Including arguing with local officials, repairing canals, clearing wasteland, buying chicken seedlings, pig seedlings and the like, and buying farm tools.

In addition to these things, there was also the defense of the farmstead and the construction of the walled wall. In Xiao Jingxuan's eyes, the farm is not only a place to farm, but also a training camp for recruits.

All recruits must be trained on the farm before they can be transferred to various units according to their strengths.

However, because Pingzhou is too barren at present, the expansion of the army has been put on hold for the time being.

Back in Pingzhou City, after arriving at the General's Mansion, which had changed its signboard, Xiao Jingxuan finally sighed.

It's been a really tiring time. So, in the next few days, Xiao Jingxuan planned to rest.

However, before Xiao Jingxuan could rest for two days, the guards at the door came to report that there was a guest visiting.

Coming to the living room, Xiao Jingxuan looked at a beautiful woman in the living room. No, it should be a woman.

Although the people who came wore hats and veils. But you can still see the other party's good figure. And the other party is dressed smartly, and at first glance he is a person who practices martial arts.

After Xiao Jingxuan walked to the main seat and sat down, the guards came up with tea.

Xiao Jingxuan looked at the other party and asked curiously. "I don't know the girl's name, what is the matter with this visit?"

The girl stared at Xiao Jingxuan for a long time before saying, "I'm from the Sword Pavilion." My name is Liang Ruyun. ”

Xiao Jingxuan was startled, and the tea in his mouth squirted out. Xiao Jingxuan quickly stood up and pointed to the girl in front of him. The words were quite surprising.

"You are the Holy Maiden of the Sword Pavilion, the princess of the Yan Kingdom"

"Oh, it seems you already know about me, and I'm here for marriage."

After some conversation, Xiao Jingxuan knew that the other party was the object of his marriage, the princess of Yan Kingdom, Liang Ruyun, the saintess of the Sword Pavilion.

Because of the marriage, Liang Ruyun is still curious about her future husband. So come and have a look.

Xiao Jingxuan looks pretty good, except for two strands of white hair on his forehead, he is quite good in other aspects.

And at a young age, he guarded one side and held a lot of power. Coupled with his background, he is indeed a young man.

However, since Liang Ruyun was able to become the saintess of the Sword Pavilion, it showed that his martial arts will was firm and he would not be easily troubled by the red dust world.

"Although this marriage was decided by my father, I have placed my heart on martial arts and do not want to be tripped by the red dust. Please also ask the general to find another good man. ”

After hearing Liang Ruyun's words, Xiao Jingxuan laughed evilly.

"The girl is casual, although I have many shortcomings, but I don't want to be strong, so let's do it, I'll go to the Jingshi later and dissolve this marriage contract."

After Liang Ruyun thanked him again, he offered his farewell.

With Liang Ruyun's departure, Xiao Jingxuan frowned, since this woman plans to dissolve the marriage contract, it means that Yan Guo is unstable, and it seems that she is going to prepare for war.

Most of the Yan Kingdom is plain, and now he only has two thousand horsemen in his hands, which is not of great use.

Subsequently, Xiao Jingxuan wrote an official document and asked the guards to report to the court quickly.

The content of the official document is also very simple, that is, 10,000 elite horsemen were transferred from Fengzhou to Pingzhou to obey orders.

At the same time, Hins Hsiao began to recruit soldiers in Pingzhou and several prefectures and counties near Pingzhou.

In this army expansion, Xiao Jingxuan plans to expand the army at full strength. Based on the existing armies, the number of troops was expanded to 130,000, including 50,000 cavalry and 80,000 infantry.

Although the food, grass and ordnance are insufficient, the soldiers must be trained first, and when the baggage of the imperial court arrives, they will be fully armed.

Although Pingzhou is not suitable for expanding the army now, it is no longer possible to take care of so much at this time, and it is necessary to deter the Yan State, so as not to spoil the imperial court's plan.

With the issuance of Xiao Jingxuan's military order, the entire Pingzhou began to get busy.

First of all, the farms in Ping Chau were busy. All the new recruits went to five farms for military training.

Then, all the regular soldiers began to intensify their training. The so-called training sweats more, wartime sheds less blood.

As time passed, qualified recruits on the farm would enter the battalions one after another, and then train under the command of each battalion.

The greatest difficulty in expanding the army was the cavalry's horses and food. Fortunately, Xiao Jingxuan currently has a lot of old departments in Fengzhou. A group of war horses was temporarily seconded, but it was not a big problem.

But food is a big problem. First of all, daily high-intensity training requires plenty of meat, and nutrition must keep up.

Then there are winter clothes, the weather is still relatively cold, and without winter clothes, the training of soldiers cannot be guaranteed.

Therefore, in the days that followed, Xiao Jingxuan gave full play to his superb skills in demolishing the east wall and repairing the west wall to maintain the demand for army expansion.

Just when Xiao Jingxuan was actively expanding the army, the burden of the imperial court finally arrived. But along with the baggage, there is also a prison guard.

When Xiao Jingxuan saw the prison army, Xiao Jingxuan was stunned, it turned out that the person who came was the King of Jin who had a relationship with Xiao Jingxuan.

After Xiao Jingxuan respectfully saluted, he welcomed King Jin into his mansion.

"General Xiao, when Xiao Wang first arrived here, he still needs General Xiao to take care of him."

Hearing King Jin's low-key words, Xiao Jingxuan didn't even dare to say it. The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a long time, and Xiao Jingxuan finally knew the intention of King Jin.

Several wars of the barbarians made Great Wei break his muscles and bones, and the Yan country was barren and had no oil and water. The lord of the court naturally set his sights on the wealthy Chu State.

In this Chu-Wei war, the DPRK and China also planned for a long time, and they did not hesitate to marry Yan State.

Although Xiao Jingxuan's status in this marriage is a little low, it is also an authentic royal bloodline, even if the current royal family does not recognize it.

Of course, marriage is only the basis for cooperation between the two parties, and there are naturally some other conditions.

However, now that the marriage has failed, the foundation of cooperation between the two sides has been destroyed, and in order not to affect the Chu and Wei wars, it can only allow Xiao Jingxuan to expand his army to balance the Yan State.

Although Xiao Jingxuan's army expansion is not small, in the eyes of the court, since it can allow you to expand the army, it can allow you to disarm.

After greeting King Jin for a while, Xiao Jingxuan specially hosted a banquet for King Jin and his party.

At the same time, in order to show respect, Xiao Jingxuan even gave up his Jiedu Mansion to the King of Jin to live, and he temporarily lived in the post station.

With the arrival of the baggage, the strength of Fan Yangjun is also expanding rapidly. However, it is true that the combat effectiveness of the temporarily conscripted troops has increased to a limited extent.

Xiao Jingxuan didn't have much hope for Fan Yangjun. Xiao Jingxuan's hope lies in the 10,000 iron horsemen seconded from Fengzhou.

However, since Fengzhou was mainly to guard against barbarians, the imperial court only agreed to send 5,000 Fengzhou elite cavalry to support Xiao Jingxuan.

This time, the cavalry that came to the aid from Fengzhou was led by Ye Xiong, although Ye Xiong was not as good as Li Xiaoyun and Zheng Qiaoan. But it's his own beloved general.

Although Ye Xiong is not as good as Li Xiaoyun and Zheng Qiaoan in terms of military strategy, he is honest and upright and can carry out Xiao Jingxuan's military orders very well.

He is also very brave in battle, and often charges at the forefront of his own troops.

With the arrival of Ye Xiong, Xiao Jingxuan's strength in his hands became stronger. However, now it has just passed the Shangyuan Festival. Xiao Jingxuan thought about it, but he still planned to send troops in another two months.
