Beast King Three Kingdoms

The undercurrent in Jingzhou is turbulent, and the outside world naturally has no way of knowing it. Even if they know it, they may laugh it off.

In August, Yuan Shu led his army back to Shouchun.

Although this expedition failed to achieve the expected results, it finally won Yuzhang and did not return empty-handed.

After setting up the army, Yuan Shu came to the official residence and ordered people to summon all the civil and military personnel to discuss the matter.

After a while, everyone arrived one after another.

Yuan Shu didn't say much, and said directly: "I want to expand the army, what's your opinion?"

Feng Ji came out and asked, "I don't know how much my lord wants to be recruited?"

Yuan Shu lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "I would like to expand the navy to 30, and the horse infantry to 40, for a total of [-] troops."

"Hiss!" Everyone gasped and looked at Yuan Shu in horror.

The 40 army is really a big hand!

The generals were naturally overjoyed, they wished Yuan Shu would expand his army by a million.

The counselors were much calmer. After the shock, they began to calculate silently.

After a long time, I saw Xun You stepping out slowly, saying: "My lord! It's okay to expand the horse infantry to 30, but [-] sailors seem to be too much."

"The naval army will be of great use in the future, and one hundred thousand may not be enough. You don't need to pay attention to this matter." Yuan Shu waved his hand, but he was too lazy to explain. After all, there are some things that they won't understand.

Xun You just mentioned it, since Yuan Shu knew it well, he didn't say any more.

At this time, Feng Ji suddenly said: "My lord expands the army, and my subordinates have no objection, but this matter should not be too publicized."

Yuan Shu thought for a while, and immediately understood the meaning of Feng Ji, and said: "I will pass on an order to all the generals, ordering them to act in a low-key manner, and don't make it known to the world."

When Feng Ji heard it, he knew that Yuan Shu understood what he meant, so he cupped his hands slightly and stepped aside.

Seeing that there were no more objections from the crowd, Yuan Shu turned his head to look at the generals, and his eyes fell on Xu Chu and Wei Yan.

The mountains in the east of the river have been flattened, and Ling Cao is guarding the south. It is expected that there will be no major incidents. Yuan Shu simply brought Wei Yan back to Shouchun and made other arrangements. This time the expansion of the army happened to be used.

"Zhongkang and Wenchang! I will leave this matter to you two." Yuan Shu ordered.

"No!" Xu Chu and Wei Yan responded with joy.

Immediately, Yuan Shu instructed Gu Yong and Yuan Feng: "You two must make proper arrangements for food, grass and salary."

"No!" Gu Yong and Yuan Feng replied in unison.

The matter of expanding the army was decided, and Yuan Shu was still brewing in his heart to change the idea of ​​​​changing the troops stationed in various places.

In the north, Runan and Wancheng are not far apart, and the two cities can act like horns and help each other.

Yuan Shu thought, Runan has [-] soldiers, Wancheng only needs [-], and [-] troops are enough to deal with everything.

Yandu in the east is mainly for defense, and does not need too many soldiers and horses, [-] is enough.

Xiangyang still stationed [-] troops to frighten Nanjun.

Jiangdong has been completely pacified, and the troubles in the mountains and mountains have been eliminated. [-] troops have been stationed and scattered in various places to meet emergency needs.

Of course, the [-] troops did not include the [-] troops of Yanping Lingcao, Yuzhang ([-]) and Chaisang ([-]) were also included.

There are all kinds of things, and there are nearly 20 troops guarding the local area alone.

"A large territory is troublesome!" Yuan Shu felt a little headache.

In fact, Yuan Shu also knew that this was only temporary, as long as Jingzhou was taken down, the fight was leveled, and the south was completely unified, the local soldiers and horses would naturally be gathered together.

For example, Xiangyang, if Jingzhou is captured, Xiangyang will naturally not need too many soldiers and horses to guard it.

"Hey! We can only talk about it later." Yuan Shu sighed.

Putting his mind away, Yuan Shu ordered everything one by one.

Later, Gu Yong reported some things in various places to Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was not interested in these things, he seemed to be listening carefully, and his thoughts had already gone somewhere.

Time passed by unwittingly.

By the time Gu Yong finished speaking, it was already late.

Seeing this, Yuan Shu simply stayed behind and had dinner at the mansion.

Everyone was happy to eat, and stayed happily. Yuan Shu was speechless for a while, and thought: "Could it be that they want to eliminate the big family?"

After a while, teams of maids entered the lobby with food and wine.

After a day of hard work, everyone's stomachs were already empty, so they were not polite and started to eat.

While eating, Yuan Shu asked Gu Yong: "Yuan Tan! Is there any major event happening to other princes?"

Gu Yong recalled it carefully, and then replied: "A month ago, Your Majesty left Chang'an and came eastward, but now he doesn't know where he is."

"Oh!" Yuan Shu was not surprised by this, and Emperor Xian fled for more than a year before being kidnapped by Cao Cao.

"What happened to Yan and Xu Erzhou?" Yuan Shu asked inarticulately while chewing a piece of beef.

"Gulu!" Gu Yong swallowed the food in his mouth, drank another glass of fine wine, and then said: "Cao Cao is fighting with Lu Bu at this time, and he has already gained the upper hand. He should expel Lu Bu from Yanzhou soon. As for Xuzhou, it is true." Nothing happened."

"Oh?" Yuan Shu's heart moved slightly, and he asked, "How does Cao Cao use his troops?"

Gu Yong sorted out his thoughts and replied: "At the beginning of the year, Cao Cao sent troops to break the Yingchuan Yellow Turban, and then scattered Xue Lan and Li Feng. Now Cao Cao's strength has basically recovered, and he has enough confidence to fight Lu Bu. It is to drive Lu Bu out of Yanzhou completely."

"Hehe! Cao Ah has done a lot of tricks." Yuan Shu said with a smile.

"By the way!" Gu Yong suddenly remembered something, and reported to Yuan Shu: "General Ji Ling sent news that the Yellow Turban General Liu Pi led more than [-] people to vote, but most of them were old and weak. General Ji Ling has already Included, but Liu Pi was once captured by the lord, and General Ji Ling didn't dare to make a decision, he just waited for the lord to make a decision."

"Liu Pi?" Yuan Shu was taken aback for a long time, he had already forgotten about this person.

"Who is he?" Yuan Shu asked.

Feng Ji who was on the side interjected: "My lord, forgot? During the conquest of Runan in the past, this person was captured by General Zhongkang, but the lord failed to persuade him to surrender, so he finally let him go."

Yuan Shu recalled carefully, and there seemed to be some reflections.

"I don't remember clearly! It's just a matter of enrolling him in the Ji Ling Department. It's a trivial matter, so why bother to mobilize everyone." Yuan Shu was too lazy to waste brain cells, and directly instructed Gu Yong.

"Yes! This subordinate will send a letter to General Ji Ling tomorrow!" Gu Yong nodded.

Feng Ji shook his head with a smile. He still had some impressions of Liu Pi. After all, Yuan Shu let him go, which was far beyond everyone's expectations.

After a long time, everyone dispersed after eating and drinking.

Yuan Shu didn't stay any longer, and rushed home.

I didn't feel it when I was entangled with things, but when I was free, the feeling of missing suddenly flooded into my heart.

The faces of sons, daughters, and wives flashed across Naohai one by one, and the pace couldn't help but quicken a lot.

The previous change made Yuan Shu's affection for his family even deeper, and now it seems that he can't wait.

Hurrying back home, the three daughters had been waiting for a long time. Zou Jia and Diao Chan held a son and a daughter in their arms.

"Why did you come back so late?" Zou Jia said angrily.

"Some things need to be dealt with." Yuan Shu said with a smile.

"Is it really that urgent?" Zou Jia complained.

"Hehe!" Yuan Shu smiled, but didn't answer, and stepped forward to hug his son.

I haven't seen him for a few months, and this kid has grown up a lot, and he seems to be able to recognize people.

Nested in Yuan Shu's arms, the little guy stared at Yuan Shu curiously with his dark eyes.

After a while, Xu Shi was away from his mother for too long, the little guy was unhappy, and burst into tears with a 'wow'.

"Don't cry! Don't cry!..." In his past and present lives, Yuan Shu had no experience in coaxing children, so he was at a loss for a while, not knowing what to do.

Zou Jia couldn't see it anymore, and reached out to take the little guy over.

As soon as he entered Zou Jia's arms, the little guy stopped crying immediately.

Yuan Shu was slightly embarrassed, touched his nose, and thought, "It's too embarrassing."

Diao Chan and Cai Yan both smiled and looked at Yuan Shu, the scene was very warm.
