Guo Jia, the ghost of the strongest military division

Chapter 171 New Challenge
"My lord has worked hard all the way!"

Guo Jia led people into the prefect's mansion, and Xi Zhong who stayed behind came out to greet him with Zhongshan Wenwu.

"Zhi Cai has worked hard!"

Guo Jia smiled and reached out to support him.

It has been several months since he left, and Zhongshan has always been in good order, which is naturally due to Xi Zhong.

Xi Zhongke has always been Guo Jia's right-hand man.

With him in Zhongshan, Guo Jia can leave with peace of mind.

Bong filial piety!

Cai Yong greeted him with a smile.

For this son-in-law, he became more and more pleasing to the eye.

"Father-in-law!"

Seeing Cai Yong, Guo Jia did not dare to neglect, holding the gift of the junior with both hands.

Cai Yong took his hand and said earnestly: "This time when you go out to fight for the Yellow Turban, it is the duty of a subject to serve the country, so you must not be proud of your achievements."

The son-in-law went out and won the battle, and his father-in-law also had a bright face.

But young people should knock it out, so as not to take credit for it.

Yes Yes Yes!
For this pedantic old Taishan, Guo Jia is naturally submissive and dare not say more.

Fortunately, this father-in-law didn't know that he attacked the barracks and killed the court official, otherwise he would never have spoken so easily.

It was Man Chong's appearance that helped Guo Jia get rid of this righteous father-in-law.

Man Chong came to report political affairs to Guo Jia, and when he saw that his son-in-law had something serious to discuss, it was natural for Cai Yong to disturb him, so Shi Shiran left.

"My lord, this is a harvest from a while ago!"

Man Chong took out two scrolls, one was the taxation of Zhongshan in the past half a year, and the other was the resettlement of refugees.

Needless to say, taxation is of course, although it has been affected by the Yellow Turban Thieves, it has been carried out in an orderly manner.

Guo Jia's attention was immediately attracted by another scroll.

In the past two months, Zhongshan resettled 100 million refugees from surrounding areas.

Seeing this number, Guo Jia was also taken aback.

You must know that before he took office, the population of Zhongshan was only 30 to [-]. Now after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the population of Zhongshan has poured in, and now it is several times that of before.

"My lord, don't worry!"

Man Chong said with a smile: "Zhongshan used to have a large area and few people. Due to the thieves and aliens, a large area of ​​land around was abandoned. Now the surrounding counties are in constant war, but our Zhongshan is peaceful, so the people in the surrounding counties are large. The scale has moved to our place. The next Maojie has properly settled these people and allocated the surrounding land to them. There will be no problems in a short time."

Guo Jia has subdued the bandits in Taihang Mountain, and the surrounding area of ​​Taihang Mountain is considered peaceful, and there is no danger to settle the refugees there.

In addition, due to the border trade, the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei and other ethnic minorities also benefited from it, and they never came to trouble Zhongshan.

So don't worry about border issues.

In this way, the refugees can also live and work in peace and contentment.

is it?

Guo Jia nodded.

Water flows to lower place, man goes to higher position.Surrounded by war-torn lands, only Zhongshan is a pure land, and it is only natural that everyone is scrambling to come here.

As a shepherd, it is also his duty to make the people under his rule live and work in peace and contentment.

In addition...

Man Chong said worriedly.

"My lord, Guangyang, Shanggu and Dai counties are already empty, and now they have fallen into our hands. These three counties are our external barriers, and we need a large army to garrison them. But right now our troops are in short supply, and we can't take care of them at all. ah!"

Mentioning this, Guo Jia also looked embarrassed.

Zhongshan is not a border county in the strict sense, because there are still Guangyang Valley and Daisan County in the north of Zhongshan.

These three counties are the real border counties. The three counties border Wuhuan and Xianbei respectively, and they have always been war-torn places.

The imperial court has no time to govern, and no one is willing to come here to be an official.

There used to be some garrisons, but after the Yellow Turban Uprising, these three places became even more deserted and basically became pastures for foreigners.

Naturally, Guo Jia would not let go of such an opportunity, and immediately sent people to the three counties, intending to build the three counties into Zhongshan's external barrier.

In this way, Zhongshan, a border trade center, will be more stable.

But in this way, a large number of troops are needed to garrison.But what Zhongshan lacks now is military strength.

Right now, Guo Jia has only 8000 cavalry and [-] infantry.

Where is Xu Huang?

Guo Jia suddenly asked.

"The end is here!"

Xu Huang immediately appeared in front of Guo Jia.

"How is the training of the new army?"

Guo Jia asked in a low voice.

"Back to the lord!"

Xu Huang said word by word: "It's ready to go to the battlefield!"

During this time, he has been ordered to train cavalry.

Gongming has worked hard!
Guo Jia hurriedly helped Xu Huang up.

Among the generals, Xu Huang is the best at training troops. The first cavalry in Zhongshan was trained by Xu Huang.Zhao Yun's Baima Yicong is basically from Xu Huang's team.

When Zhang Niujiao was defeated, Xu Huang was ordered to train the cavalry, and now it has a preliminary scale.

very good!

Seeing Xu Huang's achievements, Guo Jia was overjoyed.

This time he defeated the main force of the Yellow Turban Army, and Guo Jia captured another [-] horses. With these [-] horses, he could form another [-] cavalry.

Without even thinking about it, Guo Jia handed over this arduous task to Xu Huang.

Xu Huang's original two thousand troops were handed over to Zhao Yun.

promise!
Xu Huang took over the task without saying a word. He was kind and didn't care about anything.

Military training is also his forte.

Xu Huang's two thousand new army cavalry can temporarily relieve Guo Jia's urgent needs, but it is much worse than the future needs.

The cavalry needs to be trained, and the infantry needs to be trained as well.

Guo Jia frowned, and suddenly said, "Yu Jin!"

"Lord!"

Yu Jin also strode up to him.

Guo Jia thought for a while and said, "I will hand over the Yellow Turban Army prisoners of war and the disaster victims of Nangong County to you. How long will it take you to train them?"

Last time, he captured nearly 2 yellow scarf thieves, plus 3 strong men from Nangong County, a total of [-] people.

These people have all experienced the battlefield, they are the best source of soldiers, and they can kill two birds with one stone if they can digest them.

Yu Jin said flatly: "Three months! At the end, I will be able to hand over 2 people to the Lord."

For military training, he also has a set of experience.

However, Yu Jin is a strict person and believes in the lack of abuse, at least one-third of the 3 people must be eliminated.

it is good!
Guo Jia immediately decided to hand over these people to Yu Jin for training.

Employers do not suspect, suspects do not. '

Since the ban was activated, he supported it without hesitation.

promise!
Yu Jin also responded.

"correct!"

Guo Jia suddenly said: "Take that Zhou Cang with you, he seems to be a talented person."

Zhou Cang!

Yu Jin froze for a moment, then nodded slowly.

He also agrees with this person.

There are not many people who can sit and discuss with him, and this Zhou Cang happens to be one of them.
