Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Cao Ang thought for a while after hearing this, and then said: "Send eight thousand troops. It just so happens that the warships built in the newly built dock can be launched into the water."

"The naval forces are also well trained. This trip to Japan is just a good opportunity for these naval forces to practice. After all, if a soldier has not experienced war, he is not a real soldier!"

After Liu Bian heard Cao Ang's words, he nodded: "Okay, then as the general said, we will send eight thousand troops to support the Yamatai Kingdom."

As Liu Bian finished speaking, Cao Cao stood up with a solemn expression.

"In this expedition to Japan, we only brought [-] troops. Isn't it a little short?" Cao Cao asked Cao Ang with some concern.

When Cao Ang heard this, he shook his head and said to Cao Cao: "Don't worry, father. Japan is a small country with eight thousand soldiers, which is enough to unify it."

Cao Cao knew that Cao Ang was not a person who liked to ask for help, so after hearing this, he nodded and stopped interfering in the matter of sending troops.

Then, Cao Cao looked at Liu Bian again and said, "Your Majesty, since we have agreed to send troops, in the future, this Yamatai country will become our vassal country."

"I believe that Your Majesty should reward him with a gold seal and make him the Japanese King of the Han Dynasty, so that he can feel the emperor's grace from generation to generation!"

After Liu Bian heard what Cao Cao said, his heart was moved, and he immediately said: "Okay, everything will be according to what Da Sima said. I will leave all this matter to Da Sima."

"As for the matter of sending troops, let the general discuss it with these three envoys. I don't care about that much."

……

Soon, Cao Ang and Cao Cao left the palace and headed for the posthouse with Jin Li'er and the other three.

In the post house, after Cao Ang placed the three envoys, he let them rest.

"You three, take a rest. Later, I will show you the military appearance of my Han army."

Cao Ang deliberately flashed his sword in front of the three envoys to show his strength and prevent these small countries from having any messy thoughts.

After hearing what Cao Ang said, Jin Li'er and the other three nodded in agreement.

It's just that they definitely, the strength of the Han Dynasty must be similar to the strength of their Yamatai Kingdom.

If that is the case, when the civil strife in Yamatai subsides, they will lead their troops to land on this fertile land.

After Cao Ang left the post house, he went to the palace with Cao Cao.

After Luoyang was rebuilt, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were responsible for the defense of the entire Luoyang.

After several reforms, Luoyang's defense was finally settled, consisting of two inner and outer defense circles.

The outer circle is the permanent garrison of Luoyang, commanded by Xu Chu, who is responsible for the defense and daily garrison of Luoyang City, as well as the investigation of the situation around Luoyang City.

Cao Ang named this army the Guards, with a permanent strength of [-] troops.

The defense of the inner circle of Luoyang is handled by the [-] Yulin Army commanded by Dian Wei. Their daily task is to protect the safety of the Cao family, the palace, and other members of the Cao family group.

At the same time, the Royal Forest Army is also responsible for daily patrols in Luoyang City.

After Cao Cao returned to the palace, he went to Liu Bian to discuss the matter of making gold and silver.

Cao Ang found Dian Wei.

"General Dian Wei, I plan to show off our strength in front of the three Japanese envoys, so you mobilize the three thousand free imperial troops to prepare for the military parade."

When Dian Wei heard this, he respectfully responded: "Yes!" Then, Cao Ang found Xu Chu in person.

When Xu Chu saw Cao Ang coming, he couldn't help but feel happy: "Oh, the young general is here? This is a rare visitor!"

Facing the enthusiastic Xu Chu, Cao Ang was also a little helpless.

To talk about these two heroes, they are really two extremes.

Although both of them are highly skilled in martial arts, Dian Wei doesn't like to talk much on weekdays. He is a very ruthless person who doesn't talk much.

As for Xu Chu, he lives up to his reputation as a tough guy. He likes to drink a little wine on weekdays, and he is also smart when talking and doing things.

Xu Chu took Cao Ang's hand and led him into the camp. He asked with a smile: "Major General, when you come here this time, do you plan to change my defense for me and take him to the expedition?"

When Cao Ang heard this, he couldn't help but feel helpless: "Why, are you not used to staying in Luoyang City?"

Xu Chu scratched his head awkwardly and laughed twice.

"Hehe, I'm a rough guy. There's nothing I'm not accustomed to. I just feel that as a general, I still have to go into battle to kill the enemy."

Hearing this, Cao Ang also said helplessly: "Then let me tell you, if you go on an expedition with me, you will have to quit drinking. Otherwise, it will be against military law!"

"Ah? Quit drinking? Let's forget it." Xu Chu waved his hands nervously. He usually likes to drink some wine, so when he heard that he wanted to quit drinking, he stopped immediately.

In fact, although Xu Chu likes to drink some wine, he drinks in a measured way.

Unlike Zhang Fei and Lu Bu, they like to drink heavily on weekdays, and they have to be drunk.

Xu Chu likes to have a drink and will never delay business because of drinking.

If not, Cao Ang would not trust Luoyang City's defense to him and Dian Wei.

After Xu Chu waved his hand, he asked Cao Ang: "Young General, why did you come to see me this time?"

"Military parade!" Cao Ang spat out one word lightly.

Xu Chu looked at Cao Ang blankly, somewhat puzzled: "Major General, why is there a military parade?"

Afterwards, Cao Ang told Xu Chu everything about the envoy from Yamatai Kingdom asking for help and the purpose of his military parade.

After Xu Chu heard these words, he patted his chest and said to Cao Ang: "Don't worry, Major General. I will mobilize [-] free elite guards. Their appearance and appearance will be absolutely neat!"

"Okay, I feel relieved with your words, but you don't need so many people. Three thousand people form a square team, which is enough." Cao Ang smiled and nodded, and then left the Guards' campus.

Cao Ang asked Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong to lead three thousand light cavalry and infantry respectively to form a square formation. Finally, Cao Chun led three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry to form a square formation.

After making these arrangements, Cao Ang reported to Liu Bian his plans to hold a military parade outside Luoyang City.

When Liu Bian heard this, he immediately agreed: "Military parade? This is a very good move. I also want to see the appearance of our Han army!"

"By the way, let's scare those envoys from the Yamatai Kingdom again, so that they don't have a pure heart in professing surrender!"

"Brother Cao, you are still thoughtful!" (End of Chapter)
