Because Liu Bei's accumulated fame played a role, in a relatively short period of time, the number of people who came to sign up for the army exceeded 30,000, and the number is still increasing, and there is a tendency to over-number.

So Liu Bei had to select the people who signed up, and limited the number of the general staff to 30,000, which was not overnumbered for the time being.

With a choice, there is a standard, and Liu Bei began to require the height, physique, and skills of the soldiers.

The first is whether you are literate or not, literate and master reading and writing skills, as long as there is no physical defect, no matter how tall you are, you have never been on the battlefield, you will be accepted.

Those who are physically fit will be accepted.

Those who have technical and tactical skills, such as being able to use knives and spears, crossbows, and horses, are all accepted.

In addition, considering the survival of a large number of displaced people, Liu Bei ordered that the displaced people who are not local residents in Luoyang should be accepted as long as they have no physical defects and noble health.

It's more or less a meal, if you can let a person survive, try to let one person survive, live one more person, there will be one less hungry person in the world, and this world can become a little better.

Uncle Liu Huang said not to be good and small, which is probably what he meant.

If you can save one, do your best.

Liu Bei sighed slightly.

If less than 30,000 people can be recruited according to this standard, then the standard will continue to be relaxed, and if 30,000 people can be recruited, then the number of people will be limited to 30,000.

After these standards were released, Liu Bei's recruiting camp was very lively.

One after another people who met the standards were accepted as soldiers, and one after another those who did not meet the standards either went away disappointed or angry, in short, a few happy and a few sad.

On the sixth day of the recruitment, Cao Cao brought two more spiritual guys to Liu Bei's recruiting camp, found Liu Bei, who was counting the identity information of the soldiers, and introduced the two spiritual guys to Liu Bei.

"Cao Ren has seen the prince!"

"Cao Chun has seen the prince!"

The two spiritual guys are tall and strong, and at first glance they are the type that is full of energy and overflowing.

Liu Bei found it interesting and punched Cao Cao.

"What's the matter, your Cao clan watched the Xiahou clan soar to the top of my place, and finally your eyes were red?"

It is not good for others to say this, but Liu Bei said this, and Cao Cao only felt close.

He laughed.

"The Cao family itself also has a very high official position, so it won't be red-eyed, but these two boys heard about Xuande's recruitment, and they admired Xuande's achievements very much, so if they have to come to join the army, they can't stop it."

Cao Cao introduced Cao Ren and Cao Chun to Liu Bei a little, and then Liu Bei learned that these two boys, one was eighteen years old and the other was sixteen years old, and both of them were excellent children of the younger generation of the Cao family.

The so-called excellent is the excellence of the famous prison talents.

The two boys don't like to read very much, they like to dance with guns and sticks, steal chickens and touch dogs, and their energy is so strong that they are perverted.

I can't read anymore, but the two boys have a good martial arts practice, and they are very interested in participating in military affairs.

The family saw that they were really not the material to stay at home and keep the family business, so they followed their wishes, allowed them to join the army, took refuge in Liu Bei, and followed Liu Bei to make contributions.

Liu Bei is no stranger to them, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, one is the general with the most comprehensive skills in defense in the Cao family clan, and the other is the commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry, good at cavalry combat, it can be said that they all grew into good generals later, and there is a lot of room for growth.

Especially when it comes to dealing with Uncle Liu Huang, these two are experts......

Hehehe......

However, now they are obviously still a prisoner talent who needs to be polished, and the military is the best whetstone, and without enough training, it is impossible to make the prison system talent become a real talent.

Xiahou Mourning and Xiahou Yuan have earned good feats with Liu Bei, and the Xiahou family is very satisfied with this, and feels that the efforts of the clansmen are meaningful.

On the Cao family's side, even Cao Cao himself was targeted by Liu Bei, obviously the Cao family has seen Liu Bei's broad upside here, and has already had the idea of taking refuge in an all-round way.

Only then did the brothers Cao Ren and Cao Chun be released.

Liu Bei nodded and looked at the two brothers.

"Okay, I'm here when I need warriors, you two have ambitions, then join, but I'll say ahead, you don't have any merit and experience, don't think that you can be an officer as soon as you come, you should have training, you can't be absent, you should have a battle formation, you are indispensable once, and then, you can be rewarded for meritorious deeds, do you dare?"

Hearing this, Cao Ren smiled proudly.

"The prince is too underestimated to look down on our brothers, he doesn't dare to do this, why bother to join the army? At home, it's just a book with a bamboo slip in your arms!"

Cao Chun also learned from Cao Ren's appearance and raised his head proudly.

"If you are afraid of death, how can you come to join the army? Even if the knife cuts at me, I frown, I'm not a man!"

"Good! It's good not to be afraid of death, the last thing I need here is a bad seed who is afraid of death!"

Liu Bei patted Cao Ren and Cao Chun on the shoulders and accepted the two.

The two were arranged by Liu Bei to take the soldiers to do identity registration, and Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei's busy appearance and was quite emotional.

"Xuande first came to Luoyang, just a disciple of Lu Gong, today, is already a feudal official, ascending a shout, the responder does not know how many, I heard that this time even the Xun family has provided a lot of help to Xuande, Xuande can have such an achievement, I am deeply envious.

"So, didn't I plan to take Xu with me?"

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Meng De, you don't need to feel sorry for yourself, as long as you have the opportunity, your achievements will never be just what they are now."

Cao Cao smiled.

"Xuande, I won't tell you, I also have ambitions, my ambition is to be a county guard, properly govern, let the old and young of a county live and work in peace and contentment, and put an end to all corruption and injustice, so as to prove my ambition and determination to the world! So, Xuande, I want to thank you for giving me this opportunity. ”

"Even if I don't provide it, your family can provide you with this opportunity."

Liu Bei shook his head and said with a smile: "Meng De, you don't have to thank me so much, the road ahead is long, you and I can support each other to complete this road."

Cao Cao was very moved.

"In this life, Cao Mengde can support Xuande together, and it is the greatest blessing to complete this road."

Cao Cao held Liu Bei's hand tightly and was reluctant to let go for a long time.

After Cao Cao left, Sun Jian also came.

In the previous war, because he did not make any commendable contributions, Sun Jian only received some material rewards of silk cloth and money, and his position did not change in the slightest, nor did he get the coveted title, which was a huge blow to Sun Jian.

He once thought that he had made a mistake, and he sent people to inquire about the news, only to learn that this round of promotion did not have his share.

On the other hand, the other people who had fought with Liu Bei were more or less rewarded with job promotions.

Sun Jian felt very stunned at first and wanted to ask Liu Bei, but soon remembered that he had been Zhou Shen's subordinates until the end of the war, and the credit should be reported by Zhou Shen, so he went to see Zhou Shen.

As a result, Zhou Shen didn't pay attention to him at all, and casually said a few words to perfunctory him.

Sun Jian was depressed for a while and was in a bad mood.

He began to feel that it was a huge mistake for him to leave Liu Bei's army and enter the formation of Zhou Shen's army before.

He wanted to go over to find Liu Bei to have a relationship, but Liu Bei, who had been opening the door to him before, seemed to be very busy this time, no matter when, as long as Sun Jian went over, Liu Bei would definitely not be in the house.

Either going out to visit relatives and friends, or being invited to a banquet.

There were several times when Liu Bei was in the house, but the gatekeeper said that Liu Bei was drunk and could not see guests, so he sent Sun Jian away.

Until recently, Sun Jian heard the news that Liu Bei was going to Liangzhou to serve as the pastor of Liangzhou, and immediately felt that the opportunity had come.

PS: Yesterday had a peaceful and peaceful Singles Day, without any waves, and I was very moved to wake up this morning, so I added two more chapters.
