The Great Explosion of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 218 Great Expansion Calls Generals

In November, the second season of soybeans or other crops also began to be harvested one after another.Especially black beans. If you want horses, especially war horses, to gain strength, you must feed some black beans and salt regularly.

If you just feed grass, the war horse will gradually become not a war horse, and the good horse will gradually deteriorate.It is said that the Yezhao jade lion and even the red dodder eat meat, so I don't know if it is true or not.

Therefore, the more cavalry is not the better, too many cavalry, the test of logistics is very strong.Logistics transportation in this era is very inconvenient. Considering the production capacity of the four counties in Jingnan and Jiaozhou, especially considering that Jiaozhou will develop Yuezhou and Hainan County during this period, the expansion plan for this time does not include a lot of cavalry expansion.

Among them, the knights, which are composed entirely of barracks soldiers, have been expanded to 3000; the light cavalry has been expanded to 5000;Among them, 5000 soldiers were recruited from the military camp, and the remaining 13000 were recruited from the private sector. The source of soldiers came from the four counties in Jingnan, as well as the children of good families in Jiaozhou.

Among the 2000 people, 1000 people came from the Li family in Longxi, not all of them were children of the family, many of them were private soldiers.As expected of the aristocratic family in Longxi, there is no shortage of excellent cavalry sources. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji knew that they wanted to expand their army, so they wrote back immediately, asking for 1000 private soldiers, and the [-] private soldiers they brought together amounted to [-] people , into the cavalry unit.

Among them, more than 30 were relatively outstanding, and they were even directly promoted to be generals, and two children of the Li family were promoted to be military lords.

For other infantry, Mo Dao soldiers were expanded to 3000, Tomahawk soldiers to 10000, Halberd soldiers to 10000, Crossbowmen to 3000, and Strong Bowmen to 5000.At the same time, there are 5800 people in the Death Battalion, all of whom are prisoners of war who were captured in Yueyang in the past.Only infantry and cavalry, a total of 48800 people.

The navy has expanded to 10000 people, and the ships have been built.Unlike the cavalry and infantry, the navy is almost all directly recruited from civilians. Many 'recruited' civilians joined it, accounting for 80% of the total, and the rest were recruited civilians selected in the second round. Go fill.

In other words, from this moment on, the number of soldiers in Shihui has reached 6, which is actually very impressive in the Central Plains.Accompanying them are up to 18 heavy soldiers, all of which are served by LV1 field soldiers.They have a certain degree of military literacy and good physical strength. When they are not fighting, they can also work on military farms, on the spot, or even in breeding farms. They will not consume too much food in normal times to support this huge army.

In this quarter, there is no need for population in all regions.Apparently they haven't been able to digest the last batch, and for the sake of insurance, they dare not continue to accommodate 'refugees'.

At the same time, as a tax, money and food from all over the country have been collected one after another, not only from the four counties in Jingnan, but also from Jiaozhou, and they have also been transported one after another.A large amount of grain filled the granaries in Linxiang City to the brim, and several of them had to be temporarily built.

"Even if 20 troops are mobilized in one breath, it is enough to fight for half a year. I originally planned to take down all the counties in Jingbei, but now that I have been named the governor of Yangzhou, the center should be placed in Yuzhang instead." Shi Hui Looking at these grains, I began to think about the direction of expansion next year.

"My lord!" Fang Xuanling was by his side, and he naturally heard Shi Hui's words, so he added a few words, "Yuzhang is just a barren land, surrounded by mountains, and there are many mountains, and it is also close to Pengyue's territory in Wuyi Mountain. Such a County, there is no need to waste troops to attack, just send an envoy to surrender, after all, the lord is the governor of Yangzhou.

Relatively speaking, if we get Yuzhang, then Shaxian, E County, Zhu County, Qichun County, Xiazhi County, and even Xunyang County will be brought down!In order to ensure the security of the place, there is another place that must be taken down, and that is Xiakou! "

If conditions permit, Xiling will be shot down.However, if Xiakou and Zhu counties were captured, Xiling would be nothing to worry about.

"The premise is that Yuzhang surrenders!" Lu Fan also came forward to add, "If Yuzhang is defeated, then there is another enemy we need to face, and that is the Peng's Shanyue entrenched in the Wuyi Mountains. They are said to be the descendants of Peng Zu. The clan has millions of people, it seems to be the largest Shanyue ethnic group in Yangzhou."

"If it's in other places, you might think that these mountains are more troublesome, but if it's the elite under the lord's command, it's just a piece of cake to eliminate or even subdue this group of Peng's mountains." Fang Xuanling has obviously thought about this problem.

"I forgot, the elite under the lord's command are best at mountain warfare. In the mountains and forests, walking is faster than on flat ground!" Lu Fan immediately reacted and responded quickly.

"So, our main enemies are Lu Bu and Li Shimin!" Shi Hui nodded.Among the talents he had recruited in the past, the one he cared most about was not Wu Yuanqing, who left the earliest, but Li Shimin, who was at the diamond level.

The force is not top-notch, but the commanding ability is first-class, and the political talent is also very high. Such a talent should be a legion commander, not a civil servant. It's not that he can't, 100 points of political potential are enough to make him a qualified politician .However, the actual ability is estimated to be less than 80 points, which is the real reason why he can be counted by Wang Yun and the others.

At that time, he should have stayed by Ma Teng's side, and came to the side of the Qing emperor at the critical moment, and imitated Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao's coercion of the emperor to command the princes, so that his political talent could be fully utilized.

"Sure enough, even if he is a genius, without this environment and opportunity, he would not be able to grow into Tang Taizong!" Shi Hui couldn't help but sigh, if Li Shimin didn't have the fate of Tang Taizong, would he have a chance to kill him?

Enemies with such potential, it is best to kill them early!
The time entered the end of December, and with the coming of the New Year, the weather was getting colder every day. It started snowing ten days ago, and the whole land became covered in white.Due to the promotion of earth kang, the common people don't need to worry, but the price of firewood has started to rise, which is the real side effect.

In the cold winter, the enemy would not go south to attack at all. Unless the weather was better, the soldiers in the barracks were willing to stay in the barracks. The days without cotton were so difficult.

Generals such as Mu Huali, Wei Wentong, Yang Xiong, Cen Xi, Gan Ning, and Li Jun returned one after another. From last year when they launched an army to challenge Dong, by the end of this year, Shi Hui had many newcomers under his command, and the old ones also made great achievements. Little hard work.

In the past, the situation was unstable, and Shi Hui didn't reward these heroes well. Now that the army under his command has reached [-], and most of the generals are only military commanders, or even military lords, this is obviously not possible.Although it is not advisable to be promoted from the front line, the current situation does not have time for them to slowly accumulate credit and be promoted.

Shi Hui has emphasized more than once that ability is paramount, and the generals have shown enough ability, so he naturally does not hesitate to reward them.

The news spread like this, and the generals who came back, especially those who had been guarding outside, suddenly realized.No wonder the Shi Huihui called them all back at this time. Thinking about it carefully, this is indeed the only possibility.

Immediately, he couldn't help but look forward to what kind of official position he could get.

In such an atmosphere, the new year has arrived, and the time has entered the new year of 192 AD, and the rewards are about to begin.
