Chapter 208
Another spring came, and everywhere in the territory under Meng Chen's rule was busy.

In the field, the people shouted constantly, and everyone's face was filled with bright smiles.

"Tattoo!"

A soldier galloped forward on a horse, quickly passed through the busy crowd, and then posted a notice on the notice board at the head of the village.

"Brother, why is the conscription announcement so early this year?" A middle-aged man came quickly, and if one looked carefully, the sleeves of his clothes were knotted.

The soldier who had posted the notice turned around to answer, but the next moment, he gave a standard military salute to the middle-aged man in front of him.

"Hello, chief!" The young soldier shouted loudly.

"It's been more than a year since I left the barracks, so there's no need to salute again!" The middle-aged man replied with a smile. Although he said so, his heart was still warm.

"My lord's order cannot be disobeyed."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the middle-aged man instantly became moist. These old soldiers who were injured and couldn't return to the battlefield were able to receive the treatment they have today, all because of their lord.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man heaved a long sigh. Having lost his hands, he wanted to kill the enemy but couldn't pick up the weapon again.

"Ten Commander, this is not a conscription notice. The general recruits old soldiers to become instructors in the Meng Academy." The young soldier hastily added.

This middle-aged man is very familiar with the word instructor.

Every year, newly recruited soldiers have to go through rigorous drills by the instructors of the new barracks before they can be assigned.

"What are your requirements?" The middle-aged man Kai continued to ask.

"Veterans with more than three years experience in battle are given priority." The young soldier explained again.

"What else do you want?" The middle-aged man asked again.

"That's what the notice says." The young soldier replied with a smile, then got on his horse, gave a military salute and walked away.

This kind of notice is not only posted in this village. Although there are only two short paragraphs on the notice, such content must have caused an uproar under Meng Chen's rule.

Seeing the young soldiers leaving on horseback, the middle-aged man read the notice carefully again.

Looking down at his sleeves, the middle-aged man began to pace back and forth.

After a long time, the middle-aged man took a deep breath, and then walked quickly towards the field.

Although he was unable to do farm work, today's announcement allowed him to find a new purpose in life.

In the General's Mansion, Meng Chen was saying goodbye to several of his wives.

The spring plowing has come to an end, and the army that has prepared for the winter is about to go out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Chen..." Meng Chen didn't know what to say when the words came to his lips.

"My husband always says that without a country, there is no home, and the concubine understands everything." Cai Yan comforted Meng Chen while helping him put on his armor.

As soon as this remark came out, the other women also echoed.Although they were reluctant in their hearts, they were as clear as a mirror in front of the big right and wrong.

Meng Chen shook his head, and said with emotion in his heart: "If you get a wife like this, what do couples want!"

Parting is always painful, but Meng Chen knows that he can't delay important matters because of his children's personal relationship.

From the moment he left the General's Mansion, Meng Chen took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality.

Food needs to be eaten bite by bite, and the road needs to be walked step by step. The military academy has just started, and there is still a lot of work to be done if it is to be fully effective.

And all of this, there is no need for Meng Chen to worry about it. With the departure of the army, the already crowded official roads become more crowded.

Of course, at this time, no guy with no eyes would dare to stop him.

The caravans who got the news stopped their steps one after another, and drove the carriages off the official road to ensure that the marching army would go unimpeded.

"Look, Xuanjia Cavalry, and Daqin Ruishi!"

"Huh? Is that Beiwei Army?"

"Look, the handsome flag of the general!"

……

On both sides of the official road, merchants and common people were discussing, and there were many old soldiers who could no longer go to battle.

Some people couldn't salute anymore, they just stood upright and watched silently.

They used to be one of them. Although they can't fight again, their hearts are always together.

Such a large-scale mobilization of soldiers and horses is naturally impossible to hide from those who are interested, and Meng Chen has no intention of hiding anything.

Now that he already knew Cao Cao's purpose, Meng Chen naturally wanted to play the whole set.

As for the eye drops, Meng Chen had already secretly sent someone to Jingzhou.

The sun in early spring shines on the earth, the white snow has already slipped away, and the earth has regained its vitality.

Shuai Meng Chen led the army all the way north, not in a hurry at all.

Instead, they stopped and walked all the way, admiring the uncanny workmanship of nature!

"My lord, a lot of secret work has been found around the army." As soon as the camp was set up, Zhao Yun hurriedly reported to Meng Chen.

"Don't worry about it, Ye Bushou will deal with this matter!" Meng Chen waved his hand, it is still of great use to keep them.

"Zilong, the Marquis has something important to do here, and I need to arrange someone to do it."

"Of course, it is most suitable for you to go, but it is easy to expose the target. Do you have anyone to recommend?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yun didn't feel the slightest melancholy, "At the end of the day, the general will recommend a person named Xiahou and Minglan. He is a fellow of Yun's hometown, so he won't bother you on May Day."

Meng Chen nodded, he had seen Xia Houlan, she was one of the dozens of brothers brought out by Zhao Yun from Jingding.

This matter is of great importance, so don't let the wind leak, and say that Xia Houlan is coming to see you!
"Here!"

In less than half a stick of incense, Zhao Yun brought Xia Houlan back.

Compared with Zhao Yun, Xiahou Lan is even more handsome, but his figure is not bad at all.

"Take this edict and go secretly to Jingzhou to meet Liu Bei."

At this point, Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan's expressions were different.

"It's better to cheat Liu Bei than anyone else!" Meng Chen muttered mysteriously.

When the general order is issued, whether it is Zhao Yun or Xia Houlan, they will naturally follow the order and go.

Although they have many doubts in their hearts, they naturally don't ask more about things that shouldn't be asked.

Especially Meng Chen's last sentence made Xia Houlan go to meet Liu Bei in the name of Zhao Yun.

Although Zhao Yun had friendship with Liu Bei when he was under Gongsun Zan, but that was before.

"Zilong don't worry, this plan is just to give Liu Biao and Cao Cao eye drops!"

The words Meng Chen said with a smile made Zhao Yun murmur in his heart, after all, the expression on his lord's face already explained everything.

Inside Yanmen Pass, Gao Shun was looking at Xu Shu with his eyes.

This person was unattractive, dressed in the attire of a beggar, if he hadn't taken out the tiger charm, Gao Shun would have chased him away without hesitation.

"Does General Gao recognize this thing?" Xu Shu asked.

It was inevitable for Gao Shun to have doubts. After all, when Xu Shu first arrived, many people did not know him.

"I am Xu Shu. By the order of my lord, I am here to mobilize General Gao's troops to attack Dai County."
