Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

Chapter 124 Everyone in Taoyuan! ! (Additional updates!)
  Li Ji was dumbfounded and understood that Cai Zhaoji was using the sound of the piano to see off her guests.

Immediately, Li Ji looked at Cai Zhaoji again with slightly soft eyes, understanding that the next time they meet may be a few months later, or they may have to wait until they get married.

But compared with the great cause he wanted to achieve in his heart, Li Ji couldn't stop for his own personal love.

On the contrary, it seems to be quite lucky to have Cai Zhaoji as his head wife.

Li Ji saluted Cai Zhaoji, not only to thank him for his help during this time, but also to say goodbye, and then he slowed down and left.

Feeling Li Ji's figure disappearing, Cai Zhaoji, who had been lowering her head, slowly raised her eyes, watching Li Ji's youthful and elegant back disappear around the corner, and the melody of the Jiaowei Qin she was caressing followed. A change.

It not only means "seeing off guests", but also has a bit of reluctance and a sense of waiting, as if I am also waiting to see you again.

At this moment, Cai Zhaoji, who had previously been neither sad nor happy about the engagement, but just regarded it as her father's arrangement and obeyed it, suddenly felt a little more hopeful.

Li Ji stood behind the corner, silently listening to the end of the song, and then walked away again.

After saying goodbye to Cai Yong, Li Ji just walked out of Cai's mansion and walked towards Xia Houlan and his guards who had been waiting for a long time.

"Sir, are you going back home?"

Xia Houlan confirmed.

"No, leave the city and go to Taoyuan Camp."

Li Ji said something, got on his horse, and headed straight towards the city gate.

Taoyuan Camp is not a military camp, nor a refugee camp, but a camp where the Taoyuan people who were previously collected by Liu Bei were resettled.

It has now been nearly a year since the Taoyuan people were recruited. The boys and girls recruited at that time were all between eight and fourteen years old. Jian Yong taught literacy and divided them into different groups to teach different skills.

In addition, the Taoyuan people are all people whose parents have died, and they were given the surnames Liu and Li respectively. In addition, Li Ji has formulated a lot of ideological education, which also makes these Taoyuan people die-hard loyalists.

When Li Ji arrived at Taoyuan Camp, which looked the same as a military camp this time, he showed his seal and was allowed to enter.

After entering it, unlike the seemingly tightly guarded situation on the outside, the inside is clearly divided into different areas. Men and women are separated, and the different content they learn is also divided into different areas.

In this era, it is difficult to find a literate person who is willing to teach children, but it is extremely easy to find civilians with various skills.

Therefore, except for the literacy teacher and ideological education teacher Jian Yong in Taoyuan, the rest of the people who teach various unique skills are brought in from refugees from outside.

While Li Ji was still observing the internal operations of the entire Taoyuan camp, a big man in full armor hurriedly walked towards Li Ji, bowed and saluted.

"Meet Mr. Zikun."

Li Ji glanced at the big man. He had a strong Zhang Fei style, a slovenly beard under his chin, and even his skin was extremely dark.

However, Zhang Fei was born with dark skin, and the big man in front of him showed it off simply because he respected Zhang Fei.

Thinking back to a year ago, when this man became one of the Eighteen Yanyun Cavalry under Zhang Fei just because of his bravery, Li Ji still remembered that his appearance at that time was quite heroic and handsome.

Nowadays, I only see heroism, but not handsomeness.

As Zhang Fei was now appointed as the postal supervisor, Liu Bei, who had to patrol the four counties on weekdays and was in short supply of middle-level generals, naturally found a few available talents from Yanyun's Eighteen Cavalry for promotion.

Among them, the man in charge of Taoyuan Camp was Zhang Sai, the former Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry.

"Uncle Zhang, is there anything unusual lately?" Li Ji asked.

"Mr. Zikun, there is nothing unusual." Zhang Sai replied without hesitation.

"That's good."

Li Ji undoubtedly valued the Taoyuan Camp, which was under militarized management, and was able to cultivate a large number of confidants loyal to Liu Bei, and he also needed these "seeds" to establish the Jinyi Division step by step.

Then Li Ji, accompanied by Zhang Sai and Xia Houlan, inspected the Taoyuan Camp.

The internal environment of Taoyuan Camp is very different from that of ordinary military camps. The most conspicuous thing is the slogan that is everywhere:
  "Don't forget the lord's oath to the peach garden, and don't forget the sir's ambition to save the world." "Our bodies were saved and protected by the lord and sir, and we must return them one day." "Are you ready? For The moment you have been waiting for”…

Wherever Li Ji goes, he can almost get a large number of admiring and excited looks from the boys and girls in Taoyuan, to which Li Ji also responds and encourages them gently one by one.

In fact, not only did Li Ji come here occasionally, but even Liu Bei was asked by Li Ji to come here regularly.

In terms of status, in this place that is similar to a military-managed school, Zhang Sai is just the chief of the security department, Liu Bei is the real principal, and Li Ji is the teaching director...

Ok?
  Why does this metaphor seem weird?

Suddenly, Li Ji noticed Zhang Sai who was following him and seemed to be hesitant to speak, and asked.

"Uncle Zhang, what do you want to say?"

"Yes."

Zhang Sai heard this and quickly raised his hands. "Mr. Zikun Mingjian, I...I just hope to return to serve under General Zhang."

……

Li Ji.

Zhang Fei, the confidant led by this reckless man, is really in the same style as Zhang Fei. There is actually a good uncle who wants to go back to being a soldier.

Li Ji felt helpless and excused himself.

"Uncle Zhang should ask Yide about this matter. I'm just the county magistrate and I don't have the power to make changes."

Zhang Sai lowered his head slightly and replied.

"My subordinate asked General Zhang about this matter. General Zhang said that these matters need to be asked to Mr. Zikun. Without Mr. Zikun's nod, even if he goes to the lord to ask for help, the lord will still rely on Mr. Zikun's opinion in the end."

? ? ! !
  Li Ji.

When Li Ji heard this, he almost couldn't hold back his expression on the spot.

Why does this Zhang Yide say everything to others?

Even if Zhang Sai can be regarded as a brother who has been with you through life and death and treats you as a brother, can you say these words casually?
  For a moment, Li Ji couldn't help but feel that Zhang Fei seemed a little too busy as a postal supervisor, and he still needed to find something for him to do.

And seeing Zhang Saina lowering his head and not daring to raise it after he finished speaking, Li Ji didn't blame him too much. He understood that letting Zhang Saina be the uncle was just trying to catch up.

Liu Bei has no shortage of top generals, but he is extremely short of middle-level generals. This is a shortcoming that requires time and little training and promotion to make up for it.

"Two years!"

Li Ji raised two fingers and replied.

"Uncle Zhang is guarding here so well. After two years, if Uncle Zhang wants to return to General Zhang's command, how about I personally go and ask the lord for orders?"

Zhang Sai was overjoyed when he heard this and replied quickly. "Mr. Xie Zikun."

Li Ji smiled helplessly. He was not disgusted with Zhang Sai's frankness. Moreover, the reason why Zhang Sai was appointed to guard Taoyuan Camp was because Zhang Sai did not have the habit of drinking like Zhang Fei. He had a cautious and heroic personality. type.

What Zhang Sai admired in Zhang Fei was Zhang Fei's bravery, heroism and kindness.

Immediately, Li Ji went to the big tent of Taoyuan camp and checked the detailed roster of Taoyuan people.

At the beginning, the number of Taoyuan congregation was 1,639 boys and 513 girls.

It was just a problem with the medical system of this era, coupled with the fact that during this year, the people in Taoyuan followed Liu Bei from Zhuojun to Wujun, and they suffered from a series of acclimatization or infection with wind and cold, as well as various major and minor diseases.

As a result, there are currently only 1,220 boys and 480 girls in Taoyuan, and different areas are divided for training based on the physique, appearance, interests, etc. of these boys and girls.

Then, Li Ji looked through the roster and circled two names in a roster of people who were only fifteen years old and were trained as maids.

Soon, two unattractive-looking girls were summoned into the tent with excitement on their faces.

Li Qin, Li Shu.

These two people are twins, but they are not outstanding in figure and appearance.

Moreover, in addition to a series of maid training, Li Qin and Li Shu, despite their young age, are rare among women with outstanding martial arts, and were trained by Li Ji as similar to personal bodyguards.

According to Li Qin and Li Shu, they have helped their father farm the land since they were young, so their strength and physique are much stronger than ordinary girls.

Therefore, regarding Li Qin and Li Shu's plan, Li Ji is planning to arrange them into the scribes' mansion under Liu Bei in the future.

On the one hand, it can closely protect the scribes, and on the other hand, it can also monitor and detect whether there is any duplicity.

There are more than twenty girls like Li Qin and Li Shu, but Li Qin and Li Shu are the oldest among that group of girls.

When Li Shu and Li Qin entered the tent and saw that it was indeed Li Ji standing in the tent, they almost subconsciously knelt down on the ground and saluted excitedly.

"Mr. Zikun! Li Shu/Li Qin, please do whatever you want!"

For these orphans, Liu Bei and Li Ji, who adopted them and gave them their surnames, were almost undoubtedly their reborn parents.

They knew very well that without Liu Bei and Li Ji, they might wander to nowhere and starve to death, which would be the final outcome.

Li Ji hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Shu and Li Qin up, looked at them with kind eyes that only took him a long time to practice like Liu Bei, and said.

"Good boy, I have always paid attention to your performance in the camp, and I know that you two have fully lived up to my expectations."

When Li Shu and Li Qin heard this, they were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

For them, or perhaps for everyone in the entire Taoyuan community, the biggest wish is undoubtedly to hear these words, to be recognized by Liu Bei and Li Ji, and to be able to repay Liu Bei and Li Ji with their own strength.

Li Shu and Li Qin bowed to each other again and shouted loudly.

"I am willing to die for Mr. Zikun."

"it is good."

Li Ji nodded and replied. "I need two of you to protect one, is that okay?"

"Dare you disobey me? I have no choice but to die!"
