sweeping the world

Chapter 211 How to get along with Ran Min?
Li Hong and others have stayed in the Han Dynasty for nearly three years, and they have basically existed as instructors, training soldiers for Liu Yan.

What I have to admit is that even though Liu Yan comes from modern times and was born in the Marine Corps, he really cannot completely copy the modern training methods to train his troops. He can only select some physical training and technical subjects.

Most of the military training in the cold weapon era does not pay much attention to personal force skills, but to the coordination of military formations. Only some special troops require strong personal force.

After three years of observation, Liu Yan has grasped a characteristic of Li Hong and others' military training. They select good enough people to carry out a very difficult and difficult training. , If you are a good knight when you mount, you should be a good warrior when you dismount.

Do you know how many qualified fighters Li Hong and others have trained in three years after thousands of selections?There are only 800 people who can be in the first echelon, and there are nearly [-] substitute fighters behind, and there is no so-called third echelon.

Judging from the training requirements of Li Hong and others, it is obvious that they are so strict that they are somewhat exaggerated?Liu Yan has specifically asked, Ran Min's military training methods are more cruel and strict, and the military training environment on their side is at least ten times more difficult than that on the Han side.At least Hanbu can keep up with nutrition in terms of food, while Ran Min's food is extremely poor, and there are many aspects of restraint. Elite soldiers are all killed on the battlefield, not trained.

"Although you have fought again and again, but...to be honest, it is really nothing compared to the lord." Li Hong called Ran Min the lord, not the official position or title, but all his songs.He said with emotion: "Because of your convenience, my lord's financial and material resources have been much better in the past two years, and he can be assigned to fight more times. Paoze has continued to fight, and he has been embarrassing in various ways, so the loss is a little bit more."

Ran Min is currently staying in the northwest to suppress the rebellion, and is occasionally transferred to fight against Zhang's Liangguo. According to Li Hong's description, Ran Min has been deprived of food and grass not once and a half, and the environment is very harsh.

The transactions between the Han tribe and the various families in the Shijie Zhao Kingdom were severed four months ago, including of course Ran Min's side.Because Ran Min was able to obtain a large amount of cheap salt from the Han Dynasty, he gained a lot of profits by reselling it. In addition, he could also obtain relatively cheap weapons, and his strength increased very rapidly.Precisely because Ran Min's strength has increased repeatedly, he will naturally be targeted. For example, being assigned to the northwest to suppress the rebellion is one of them.

The northwest is Yao Yizhong's sphere of influence, and there is no lack of Sheng Qiang among those rebelling groups. When Ran Min suppressed the rebellion, he was actually very careful not to conflict with Yao Yizhong, but he was still caught in a trap.With the first conflict, the second conflict became inevitable. Later, Ran Min simply did not do anything to invade the Yao family's salt sales area, which caused the relationship between the two parties to be more than just bad.

"So, transfer the control of the conflict to me?" Liu Yan would be lying if he said he wasn't annoyed. He had tried his best to help Ran Min, but he didn't expect to get such a reward.With a gloomy expression, he said: "The pressure on Marquis Xiu Cheng has decreased, but I was attacked by the Yao family's army. It's really a good show."

Li Hong was speechless.He also wanted to ask Liu Yan to continue the transaction with Ran Min, and Ran Min took the initiative to raise the price by [-]% as an apology.In addition, Ran Min also compensated in some aspects, such as the operation that caused Shi Hu to designate Liu Yan as a guerrilla general.

"Official positions are of little use to me anymore." Liu Yan sneered for a while, making Li Hong and Wei Junchi feel embarrassed and uneasy.He then continued: "The transaction can continue, but the trade route needs to be found by Xiuchenghou himself. As for the price, it will be as Xiuchenghou said."

Of course Li Hong and Wei Junchi were grateful, but they wanted to say something but were sent off by Liu Yan.

"Send them back after a while." Liu Yan did not give a few of his subordinates a chance to speak, and continued: "Choosing to continue trading with Marquis Xiucheng is related to the subsequent layout. It is not a sign of weakness."

"Xiuchenghou is the son of Ran Liang. Ran Liang first changed his name to Ran Zhan, and then changed his name to Shi Zhan." Sang Yu almost dragged his tone and continued: "Xiuchenghou has now changed his surname to Li, but he doesn't know what will happen next. What surname should it be?"

Everyone, including Liu Yan, was looking at Sang Yu, probably understanding what Sang Yu was referring to.

Maybe Ran Min was upset about being targeted again and again, so he changed his surname to Li to express his dissatisfaction with Shi Hu?But he just changed his surname.

Zhang Shiyou, who was in Xiangguo, sent back some information, saying that Shi Hu had no reaction at all to Ran Min changing his surname.If it wasn't for Zhang Shi not being able to find information about Shi Hu's reaction, then there was really no reaction.There are many problems that can be explained here. Can it be understood as a parting of ways between Ran Min and the ruler of Shijie?
On the other hand, Shi Jian reacted violently to Ran Min's actions. Zhang Shi heard the news from some great Confucian scholars, saying that Shi Jian repeatedly asked Ran Min to change his surname back to Shi Hu, and asked Ran Min to plead guilty to Shi Hu. It is clear what choice Ran Min will make, but most people think that their arms cannot twist their thighs, and they believe that Ran Min must make an act of pleading guilty to Shi Hu.

However, Liu Yan knew that most people guessed wrong this time. After Ran Min changed his surname to Li, he did not change his surname to Shi again. It was maintained until Shi Hu died, and Shijie Zhao Guo was also caught in the princes' struggle for the throne. In turmoil, he finally changed his surname back to Ran.

Although Sang Yu didn't say it clearly, not a few people understood it. Ran Min obviously had big plans.

"So, they should be supported." Ji Chang said with a cold face, "But don't let them take everything for granted."

Ran Min was supported by most of the Jin families in the Shijie Zhao Kingdom, so he was destined to follow a path that would be feared by the Shijie Zhao Kingdom.

The tough attitude that should be there must be shown. Liu Yan will have a choice, but it seems that he does not have too many choices.

Shihu began to recruit women and build palaces in a large scale. Do you know what he is doing at the same time?Shi Hu is worshiping Buddha wantonly because he was inspired by Fo Tucheng and Wu Jin (also known as Hu Jin) to believe in Buddhism.

Wu Jin is from Jin. I don’t know when he became an important person in Shamen (this name is now). He made it clear in a conversation with Shi Hu in the eighth year of Jianwu (AD 342), saying that Jin people already had Signs of recovery of vitality should be suppressed more, and Jin people should not be allowed to recover their vitality, otherwise Shijie's country will not be preserved.

This is not the first time someone has spoken to Shi Hu that the people of Jin are a great threat. Before that, Yao Yizhong, Fu Hong, Zhang Jing, Zhang Quliu, Zhang Hedu, Zhang Jack... and many other Shi Le era veterans or Shi Hu ascended the throne After that, the newly promoted ministers more or less talked about similar remarks to Shi Hu.

Shijie Zhao Guo began to suppress the Jin people, and the methods were still extremely cruel. Liu Yan could have a guess that Shi Hu had already attacked the Jin people (although he didn't stop), and the methods would inevitably become more and more cruel.

With the support of many families of Jin people, Ran Min has enough strength to have a place in Shijie Zhao State. Shijie Zhao State began to brutally suppress the Jin people. If Ran Min can only see his strength getting weaker and weaker , then there must be a reaction.

The series of things Liu Yan did did not happen in the original history, which means that history has changed because of him, so who knows if Shi Hu's methods against the Jin people will be more bloody and cruel?

Qingzhou has a small population and looks desolate, but Qingzhou is a state after all, and the Shijie regime will never ignore what happened in Qingzhou.

In fact, after two months of dissemination, the fierce battle that took place in Qingzhou has become more and more widespread. Liu Yan won the victory with a small number of people. Less than three thousand cavalry escaped, causing an uproar in public opinion.

Some of the battle history was carefully inquired and they got a rough idea. They learned that Liu Yan defeated 2 people led by Liu Zheng, Yao Lan, Yao Jing, and Wang Teng with less than 13 people, even if they had never heard of Liu Yan before. The Yan and Han tribes should also remember this after the battle of Xia Mi.

Some people who already knew the existence of Liu Yan and the Han tribe, if they said they still didn't care before, they paid attention to and feared them after the First World War.

Guo Xiang, the governor of Xuzhou, has assembled his troops, which consist of [-] county and county soldiers and [-] private soldiers from various families.They have been stationed on the edge of Yishui near the edge of Gaomi County in Qingzhou. They had already shown signs of marching two months ago, but they were just waiting for the collection of supplies to be completed.

The Xuzhou army advanced to Pixiang in Dongguan County, but found out that Liu Yan had won. Considering that the losses of the Han army did not seem to be much, and reinforcements were constantly arriving, Guo Xiang stopped marching again.

The reason is relatively simple. The Han Dynasty just won a game, which is not a tragic victory. Anyone with a bit of common sense in the art of war should know that it is not easy to provoke an army that has just won and its morale is high. Of course, it will take a while. As a result, he waited for a long time, but when he wanted to move out again, there was a change in the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, forcing Guo Xiang to return to defense.

Of course, Liu Yan paid close attention to the developments in the direction of Xuzhou. Two months ago, he had already controlled eight counties. At that time, the system was upgraded, but it took three months to complete the upgrade.

When Guo Xiang led the army to Qingzhou, Liu Yan would be lying if he said that he was not nervous. After all, the army in Xuzhou was different from the army in Qingzhou.

Xuzhou is a state adjacent to Yangzhou in the Eastern Jin Dynasty from the State of Shijie. In fact, part of Xuzhou was controlled by the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. At the same time, part of Yangzhou fell into the hands of the State of Shijie. Given the current situation, who made Jiankang, the capital of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, less than six hundred miles away from the border with Shijie Zhao?
