text

Da Qiao usually comes to the General's Mansion, most of the time to talk and sing with Zhang Rui and Diao Chan, sometimes when the two women are away, just when Chen Chu is there again, Da Qiao will ask Chen Chu for his poems and songs, which makes Chen Chu very distressed, But fortunately, Chen Chu had read a lot of Tang poetry and Song poetry in his previous life, and he was able to cope with Da Qiao who needed to be read.Chen Chu's "erudite literary talent" deeply attracted Da Qiao, and unconsciously, the distance between the two became closer.

The four states under Chen Chu's control have calmed down on the surface, but in fact they are running at high speed inside.

In order to stabilize the situation in the newly occupied Yanzhou, grain and grass raised from the private sector are being continuously transported to Yanzhou through Huguan.

Soldiers recruited from all over the country are gathering in Bingzhou. These recruits will receive three months of intensive training in Bingzhou before being divided into various legions. [

The Xianbei prison camp near Huguan also made big moves. The [-] Xianbei prisoners were divided into two groups, and the relevant food and fodder were being prepared.

Refugees who fled from various places were organized to build villages to reclaim wasteland. In just a few months, thousands of new villages were added, and 500 million mu of cultivated land was added. However, in a short period of time, Chen Chu still You can only pay outwards, at least until the spring of next year before you will gain something.

The caravans sent to the south are starting one after another, and their purpose is to buy as much grain as possible.

The weapons factories and the civilian factories directly under the government have been running at full capacity. The armor produced is stored in the official warehouse, some of the civilian supplies are stored in the warehouse, and most of them are trafficked to all parts of the country by caravans.

Chen Chu's subordinates are under construction at a high speed, and he is accumulating the power to unify the world

On the official road from Jiguan to Bingzhou, more than a hundred riders are galloping.The leading general has a majestic figure, the most eye-catching thing is the three-foot long beard under his chin, and the Qinglong Yanyue knife in his hand.This person is none other than Guan Yu, a general of the Zhengbei Army who has been sitting in Jiguan for these years.

Guan Yu was very excited at the moment. He had been bored in Jiguan for the past few years, and he felt extremely depressed watching other brothers conquer the battlefield and make great achievements. .In fact, Guan Yu also knew in his heart that Chen Chu put him in Jiguan these years, not because he underestimated him, but because he valued him. It is certainly beautiful to lead an army to fight outside, but someone must be in charge of the core, and this person must be in charge. It is both wise and brave and loyal and reliable.

Guan Yu's war horse seemed to feel Guan Yu's mood, and his footsteps were extraordinarily brisk.

On October [-]th, Guan Yu finally arrived in Bingzhou. It took Guan Yu only two days to reach Bingzhou from Jiguan.

Someone was already waiting for Guan Yu at the gate of the city, and Guan Yu went straight to the General's Mansion.Entering the General's Mansion, Tiewei guided him all the way, and Guan Yu came to the study in the backyard.

"Guan Yu greets the lord!" Guan Yu bowed in a loud voice.

Chen Chu hurriedly went down to help Guan Yu up, and said with some emotion: "Yun Chang has been sitting in Jiguan all these years, it's really embarrassing for Yun Chang!"

After finishing speaking, he took Guan Yu's thick arm and asked him to sit down beside him. Although Guan Yu was proud, he valued etiquette the most. How could he dare to sit on an equal footing with Chen Chuping? Don't dare to make mistakes!"

Chen Chu chuckled, patted Guan Yu's arm, and said, "Although you and I are monarchs and ministers, we love brothers." Immediately, memories showed in his eyes, and he continued: "I think that during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, you and I were thinking about When we met in the county, Yun Chang led a lone army to defend the city, standing proudly in the face of thousands of troops, what a heroic spirit that is!"

Guan Yu couldn't help showing excitement, and clasped his fists at Chen Chu and said, "Unexpectedly, my lord still remembers the past?"

Chen Chu signaled Guan Yu to sit down. This time, Guan Yu did not say goodbye.Chen Chu smiled and said: "I will never forget these things, and Yun Chang's bravery and loyalty in following me in the north and south!"

"My lord!" Guan Yu was quite moved.

Chen Chu poured a glass of wine for Guan Yu, Guan Yu took it respectfully and drank it down.

Chen Chu smiled and said, "Does Yun Chang feel wronged by staying at Jiguan?"

Guan Yu cupped his fists at Chen Chu and said, "I

Knowing that the lord thinks highly of me, that's why he arranged for me to station the army at Jiguan and sit in Guanzhong! "

Chen Chu showed a look of relief, nodded, and said: "The situation was tense a few years ago, and I had to stay in Yunchang to garrison the army at Jiguan to support the Quartet. Now the situation is different, our army has controlled the four states , and conquered Xianbei in the north, and defeated the princes of the Central Plains several times, Yun Chang can no longer have to garrison Jiguan!"

Guan Yu showed an excited look, bowed down on one knee and said: "Guan Yu respectfully waits for the Lord's order!"

Chen Chu chuckled, helped Guan Yu up, signaled Guan Yu to sit down again, and continued: "Our army will add two new legions, does Yun Chang know?"

Guan Yu nodded and said, "I have heard what Zijing said."

Chen Chu nodded, fixed his eyes on Guan Yu's face, and said, "I decided to let you train and command these two legions."

Guan Yu was first surprised, then overjoyed, overjoyed.Hastily bowed to Chen Chu: "Thank you, my lord! Yu will live up to my lord's trust!"

Giving the training and command of the two newly formed corps to Guan Yu was not in line with the usual practice of conscripting the Northern Army.The usual practice of conscripting the Northern Army is that when the army is not in a state of war, it is trained and taught by officers directly under Chen Chu's subordinates. In a state of war, the control of the army will be handed over to the general.The purpose of this is to make the entire army loyal to only one person.

Chen Chu did this after careful consideration.First of all, the daily teaching of "gentlemen" has been proven to be very effective in teaching the soldiers. In addition, it is good for the general to better command the army by allowing the general to stay with the army he is commanding from time to time.

Letting Guan Yu train and command these two armies is just the beginning. Chen Chu intends to reform all the armies accordingly. The training syllabus will serve as a model and instructional material for training all troops in the future.

After talking with Guan Yu for a while, Chen Chu took Guan Yu to the stable in the backyard of the General's Mansion.

As Chen Chu is the commander of the Northern Army, of course the horses in his stable will not be ordinary ones.Guan Yu followed behind Chen Chu, looking at the one-in-a-hundred horses in the stable, his eyes were shining, very similar to Zhang Rui when he saw something he liked.Haha, no wonder, how could Guan Yu, as a general, not like horses?

When he came to an independent stable in the back, Guan Yu opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes flashed in amazement.In front of Guan Yu's eyes was a dark and shiny horse, which was exactly the Zidian Juechen that Chen Chu captured from Cao Cao's private horse farm.

Seeing Guan Yu's expression, Chen Chu couldn't help smiling, and asked, "How does Yun Chang look at this horse?"

Guan Yu nodded heavily, and exclaimed, "It's really a one-in-a-million horse!"

Chen Chu looked at the proud Juechen who was snorting, and said indifferently: "This horse is named Juechen, and it will be Yunchang's mount from now on!"

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers gathered from all over the country were arranged by Zhou Yu in several large camps outside Bingzhou City.The 20 recruits who formed the Sixth and Seventh Corps were placed in the Peking University Camp.

After Guan Yu left the General's Mansion, he spent 24 hours a day in the Peking Camp, eating and living with the sergeants.Although Guan Yu loves soldiers like his son and shares joys and sorrows with the soldiers, he is very strict in daily training. If any soldiers are cowards or violate military regulations, he will punish them mercilessly.Dianlian sent 'Mr.' and instructors to assist Guan Yu in training the army.

The battle in Yanzhou has long since calmed down, but the battle in Xuzhou is still raging.The situation in Xuzhou is more critical than before. [

The main force of Xuzhou led by Liu Bei fought several battles with Yuan Shu's 20 army under the city of Xuzhou. At this moment, Liu Bei's army, which suffered heavy losses, had retreated to Pei County.There were only less than [-] soldiers left in Xuzhou City. Fortunately, Xuzhou City was high and wide, so it was difficult for Yuan Shu to capture Xuzhou for a while.

Worried about the situation in Xuzhou, Tao Qian, who was already very old, looked even older now.

Dim lights danced in the hall, counselors and generals all stood with heavy faces in the hall, Tao Qian on the main seat frowned, looking worried.

After being silent for a while, Tao Qian suddenly said: "Yuan Shu has sent an envoy, you say, should I hand over Xuzhou to Yuan Shu?" Tao Qian seemed to have been tempted.

Everyone immediately talked about it.Mi Zhu cupped his fists towards Tao Qian and said, "Yuan Shu is greedy and tyrannical. If Xuzhou is handed over to him, the common people will suffer!" Chen Deng immediately agreed, and everyone expressed the same opinion.

Tao Qian couldn't help feeling troubled, "If we don't hand over Xuzhou, how long will this war end? What's more, Yuan Shu's 20 army facing us will lose sooner or later!"

Mi Zhu had thought about Tao Qian's troubles for a long time, and Mi Zhu said: "We are not Yuan Shu's opponents, but we can ask for reinforcements!"

"Who?"

"The Northern Expedition Army stationed in Yanzhou. I have some friendship with Zhang Liao, the general who is overseeing Yanzhou at the moment. I would like to go and invite reinforcements!"! ~!
