Disasters will force them to kill each other until the remaining people can live on the remains of their predecessors, and this matter will not stop.

……

I don't dare to say anything else, but what Zhang Yan can be sure of is that these people have the same idea in their hearts at the moment, or a worry, that is:

Although the plague of locusts is over, this matter is not over yet.Autumn is coming soon, how will we spend this autumn?

Thanks to Lujiang's excellent information flow mechanism, anyone who is a commoner now knows that the previous locust plague did not originate in Lujiang, but migrated all the way from the south of Yangzhou, or even near Jiaozhou.

In other words, Lujiang is definitely not the only one affected by the disaster. The large area of ​​neighbors to the south of Lujiang River may now be poorer and more struggling than the other.

These people are not the kind of young generation who have not suffered much. They all know how crazy things they will do when a person can no longer live, when a person is already hungry to the extreme.

If the order of those counties in the south really collapsed one by one, then as the people of Lujiang, would they also suffer along with it?

If refugees from the other side flood in, will you accept it or not?

If you have relatives and friends living in the south, are you worried or not?

If these refugees are really hungry and gang up to Lujiang to grab your food, are you afraid or not?

If they are not allowed to come, what if they form an army and directly attack the city?

Let them come, then these people have eaten up all the food you want to eat, what else can you eat?

One question after another appeared in the bottom of these people's hearts, and it was inevitable that they would fall into endless worries.

This is not unfounded worry - in fact, the reason why these people are so worried is precisely because all of the above have happened in China's past history, and even part of it is what they have personally experienced.

As the "manager" of Lujiang, and also the highest level of the entire Lujiang government, Zhang Yan naturally had to think about how to solve this problem.

……

"Master, we are here."

The voice from outside the door broke the silence inside the car, and woke Zhang Yan out of that trance.

Turning around and looking outside the door, before they knew it, everyone had arrived at the gate of a semi-permanent barracks that had just been built outside the city, and Ye'er had already jumped out of the car, standing outside the car and waiting quietly he.

"My lord—"

……

"I have seen the lord!"

……

Leaning on the shaft of the car, he jumped down. As soon as Zhang Yan got out of the car, he saw a few soldiers standing guard at the gate of the barracks found him, and they cupped their hands proactively, as a greeting to him.

And he didn't say much.

Zhang Yan just nodded slightly at these people, and then asked the person in front of him:

"The commanders have all returned recently? I sent someone to look for them a few days ago. Where are they now?"

"Forget it, just arrange a quieter tent for me, and call them all over for me. I have something to discuss with a few commanders."

……

Walking into the barracks with big strides, Zhang Yan quickly entered a remote tent under the guidance of the guards, and then sat on the first seat somewhat casually.

The efficiency of the soldiers is always beyond doubt, and within a short while, familiar faces such as Pei Yuanshao and Xu Huang appeared in front of him one after another.

……

"My lord, long time no see!"

It was a rough man's voice. Zhang Yan sat on the spot and looked at Pei Yuanshao, the general who had been with him for a long time, and a look of memory could not help but appear on his face.

At the beginning, it was this guy who led thousands of people to follow him, and made a name for himself in Hedong step by step, and also earned him a lot of reputation with Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

After so long now, Pei Yuanshao, Yang Feng and other generals who followed him in the early days have all been sent down to various legions in Lujiang.Each of them is at the level of commander and deputy commander of the Bingma Division. They usually take their own troops to take turns and train in several military camps outside the city.

For example, Zhang Yan has not seen them for a long, long time.

……

"Well, it's been a long time."

"It's really hard for you generals to train troops outside on weekdays. When you come back to Wancheng this time, you should take a good rest for a while."

"This person is like a bowstring. It cannot be stretched all the time. When it is not in use, it must be relaxed and rested."

……

"Sit down quickly, and when Zi Jing arrives, we'll officially begin."

He smiled and greeted several people one after another. Soon, the empty tent next to Zhang Yan gradually became more and more crowded.

People like Han Xian, Xu Huang and even Li Le and Hu Cai, who hadn't appeared for a long time, gradually came in.

What made Zhang Yan a little concerned was that among the crowd, there unexpectedly appeared a young man, who was also dressed in armor like the others.

However, looking at his face, there is a hint of gentleness in his brows.

"Hey, is there a newcomer?"

With a trace of surprise in his eyes, Zhang Yan kept looking at the young man up and down before all the people came.

Judging by his appearance, it is obvious that he has filled the position of Marching Governor who was previously vacant in the Third Army Ma Sizhong.

You must know that the governor of the marching army is like a staff officer. He exists in a complete army and horse department system, like the tip of a trident.

For example, Xu Huang, Xu Gongming, Liao Hua, Liao Yuanjian and others in the original officer system are nothing more than marching governors.

Since the newcomer has appeared here as the governor of the marching army, it at least proves that the other party's status on the surface should be the same as Xu Huang and others...

What is this concept?

This is equivalent to, relying on his own ability, whether it is force, brain power or command ability, the newcomer has been recognized by more than 2 soldiers of the Third Army Masi anyway.

Now is not the era of unconditional obedience to orders of the later generations. In today's big man, if there is such a useless general, there will be a mutiny at the bottom when it is the most serious.

……

"Hmm, maybe that guy Zijing helped him to arrange the entry?"

……

Quietly muttering in the bottom of his heart, Zhang Yan had some doubts in his heart.

But when he thought that the other party was a member of his cabinet and a full-fledged military adviser, it was normal to promote some generals.

Some time ago, when Zhang Yan went to the Huainan area in the north, he discovered Lu Su from the countryside, and directly promoted him to his cabinet.

With the help of the future governor of the Eastern Wu Army, Zhang Yan directly left all the military-related government affairs in his hands to the other party, and he was initially freed from the heavy affairs.

According to his estimation, there is a great possibility that when he handed over the work, a report about this general was included in the documents he handed over to Lu Su.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

Although Lu Su is not famous for his ability to know people, he is still a hero who can leave a strong mark in the history books of later generations. Regarding his decision, I only need to trust him.

……

"My lord... are you here?"

……

Time passed slowly, and about a quarter of an hour later, when the camp was full of commanders of various soldiers and horses, a tall figure opened the curtain and walked towards the direction where everyone was. come over.

It was just a punch, the strong man was taken aback for a moment, then immediately cupped his hands and saluted in Zhang Yan's direction.

The person who came was the current leader of Lujiang's military department, Lu Su and Lu Zijing.

On the other hand, on Zhang Yan's side, after nodding with a smile, he reached out and knocked on the table in front of him, drawing everyone's attention back.

……

"Oh, here we come."

"Zijing, sit down quickly, you are the only one missing."

……

"Everyone, time is precious. I know that you are very tired from training soldiers every day. I won't waste too much time. I will announce two things later. You can ask me any questions at any time. If you have no questions, wait for me After speaking, you can leave and rest."

……

First, Zhang Yan vaccinated the people present. Seeing Lu Su sitting next to him, Zhang Yan looked around with his eyes and began to speak to the people.

……

"I called you back today mainly because of a few things."

"First of all, everyone has been training soldiers in Lujiang for a long time, and I think they are very tired. I called you back to Wancheng this time, and I hope you can take the soldiers to recuperate."

"In addition, after all, this training has lasted for so long... Everyone understands the principle of raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short time. This training can't just be done. I personally think that these soldiers should be used reasonably. , so that they can integrate the knowledge they have learned in the actual process, and in this way, your previous training will be meaningful."

……

"Oh?"

"My lord, what do you mean, we are going to fight in Lujiang?"

"Who will you hit? When will you do it?"

……

Suddenly, a series of three questions were thrown from Zhang Yan's side, making Zhang Yan stunned for the first time.

Curiously, he turned his head to look, and as expected, it was Pei Yuanshao who spoke.

Hearing that he would mobilize some troops, several fearless generals, including Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang and others, suddenly felt a little excited all over.

……

Hey look how fresh it is!

Zhang Yan, the prefect of Lujiang, actually planned to take the initiative to use troops abroad?

You know, since the establishment of this army, the entire army has gone through more than a year and nearly two years of training, and it is almost exhausted.

Although there have been several large-scale expansions and reorganizations in the middle, more than 90.00% of the soldiers in the current army have not experienced any large-scale military operations or battles.

To put it bluntly, the most difficult battle these people fought was probably when tens of thousands of people followed Xu Huang to the Qianshan area to suppress the bandits.

It hasn't been used for a week, and the officers and soldiers with all kinds of black technologies such as grenades and explosives have directly shaved off a zero seal for the local Shanyue forces. Not only did they not cause too many casualties, they even failed to accumulate much combat experience.
