Chapter 18 Court Discussion

For the people of Luoyang, since Ye Zhao came to Luoyang, there has been a lot of topics of conversation after dinner. The war in Xiliang is too far away for the people of Luoyang. No matter how much the Qiang people make trouble, they will never be able to fight Luoyang. On the contrary, what happened to Ye Zhao over the past year has made the people of Luoyang more interested.

He was promoted to Luoyang Order with great merits. Since taking office, all cases have been solved. No matter how complicated the case is, the truth can be revealed quickly when Ye Zhao comes to Ye Zhao. He is not afraid of power. He is never ruthless when encountering children of aristocratic families committing crimes several times. He is not afraid of revenge from the aristocratic families behind these playboys. However, Ye Zhao has become a real guardian god of the people and is highly supported by the people of Luoyang.

However, these are nothing. What really makes everyone talk about is the gambling battle with Yuan Shu this time. Even the emperor personally came forward to take the position of Weiwei as the first prize. Such a big gambling battle is rare even in Luoyang, and he is one of the nine ministers.

Ordinary people do not understand the strength between these nine ministers, but being only ranked among the nine ministers is enough to be amazed. How many people can’t even sit in this position even if they are officials for the rest of their lives?

Just this bet made everyone pay great attention to the upcoming bet battle, and even set up handicaps in various betting sites in Luoyang, who would win?

Many people with some tricks have begun to speculate on the outcome.

Ye Zhao's reputation for fighting is now well-known. The series of dazzling achievements, which have turned the tide with fewer wins and more, have made many people bet on Ye Zhao one after another.

However, Yuan Shu has many supporters. After all, it is impossible to say that there is no dark story in this battle. Ye Zhao can fight, but he is still alone. On the other hand, behind Yuan Shu, there is a huge Yuan family supporting him. Moreover, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are all under the command of the general, and the general is the person who planned this battle, and he will definitely help Yuan Shu.

After all the weapons, armor and even the soldiers themselves, Ye Zhao could not win even if he could fight.

Morning court, Jiade Hall.

"Your Majesty, I have discussed the rules of this gambling battle overnight with my aides. In order to be as fair as possible, I have made plans for the past achievements and achievements of the two participants. Please check the past achievements of the two participants. "After discussing the major affairs of the government, He Jin took out a roll of bamboo paper and bowed to Liu Hong.

"Come on." Liu Hong gestured to Zhang Rang. Zhang Rang stepped forward, took the bamboo paper from He Jin and gave it to Liu Hong.

"Which army is this female official camp?" Looking at the bamboo slips and distributed to Ye Zhao, Liu Hong frowned and looked at He Jin. He didn't remember that there was such an army in Luoyang.

"Return to Your Majesty, the female official camp was established in the fifth year of Nai Guanghe. Your Majesty was established by the female officials in the palace to protect the Beigong." He Jin bowed and said.

When Liu Hong heard this, he suddenly realized that before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Hong had an absurd day. The female official camp was also his sudden idea. He wanted to build such a purely female army in Beigong, without seeking combat power, but just watching it fun. Not long after, he was forgotten by Liu Hong.

Looking at He Jin, Liu Hong frowned and said, "What does the general mean? Let Ye Qing lead a group of palace maids to fight with the elite imperial guards?"

"Go back to Your Majesty, this bet is about the generals of both sides. However, Ye Zhao is a famous general who has been on the battlefield for a long time, but the highway has no experience in leading troops alone. If both sides have the same number of troops, it is inevitable that the highway will be unfair." He Jin bowed and said, "Of course, this female official camp will be given a training period for March, and the battle will be fought in January next year. Ye Zhao is a good general of the generation. I hope he can train my first female camp."

"Absurd, how do women fight?" Lu Zhi frowned.

"Why can't women fight? During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many women had served in the Yellow Turban Army and could still kill the enemy." He Jin smiled.

Liu Hong frowned and looked at the bamboo paper in his hand. The Yuan family also fought for the position of Weiwei this time. Not only did they give Ye Zhao only five hundred female officials, but more importantly, the money, grain and equipment needed for training were all raised by both of them.

This seems fair, but if you think about it carefully, can it be the same? What is the Yuan family’s foundation? What is Ye Zhao’s foundation? Equipment, weapons, with the Yuan family’s foundation, there is no problem in trying to fully arm these five hundred soldiers, but Ye Zhao…

Let’s not talk about whether the five hundred female soldiers can compare with the five hundred regular Luoyang troops. If Ye Zhao himself contributed the equipment, the equipment of these five hundred people would not be simply a weapon, armor, bows, boots, and inner armor. If they were fully armed, it would probably be a damaging force for the Ye family, right?

"What do you think?" Liu Hong looked at the ministers and ministers in the court. After all, this was related to the position of the Nine Ministers. Although there was some trick to selecting, Liu Hong also had to look at the opinions of the ministers in this result.

"I'm going to discuss it!" Yuan Wei had obviously said hello. All the officials and ministers of the court, except for Lu Zhi and a few others who did not speak, chose to discuss it.

"What I said is, let Ye Zhao lead 500 female soldiers to compete with Yuan Shu for the position of Guard!" Liu Hong said with a dark face.

"Your Majesty, as the general said, Ye Zhao is a good general of the age, good at fighting and fighting with highways. If he gives him the same troops, it would be unfair. Therefore, I think the general is very considerate." Grand Secretary Liu Tao bowed and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this guard is not a war, but commands the military affairs of the two palaces and the city gates. The person used is not necessarily a good general, but also considers his origin. Ye Zhao was born in a good family and was not qualified to serve as a guard. Now that he is competing for this position with Yuan Shu, how can he only consider the ability to command the troops?"

Listening to a group of ministers standing there and speaking verbal words with their eyes open, they could always find the right reason, which made Liu Hong angry and had nowhere to vent his anger. He was once again kidnapped by all the ministers in the court...

"Since all the officials have no objection, let's decide to retreat to the court!" Liu Hong stood up and waved his hand, without waiting for everyone to take a break, turned around and walked away directly. It can be seen that Liu Hong was very angry this time.

Yuan Wei and several ministers smiled at each other. In this way, Wei Wei belonged to Yuan Shu. In addition to the Sili School Commander's headquarters under Yuan Shao, in addition to the five school soldiers controlled by He Jin, the military power held by the scholars was enough to compete with He Jin.

After a group of ministers retreated from the court, they celebrated each other, but after Liu Hong returned to the palace, his face turned blue and he immediately ordered someone to go to the government office to summon Ye Zhao into the palace to discuss the matter.

"Five hundred female soldiers?" Ye Zhao looked at Liu Hong incredibly. He knew that He Jin would definitely make things difficult for him. However, he was picking people from the army. No matter how naughty the soldiers were, he was confident of training to become elites. But no matter how hard he thought about it, there was still female soldiers in the Han military system? Why did there be such organization in the Han military system?

"Well, I was preparing to set up a female barracks in Nangong, but no one could scold me. Unexpectedly..." Liu Hong sighed. The absurd behavior of the past two years had passed a little at this time.

"Ye Qing, you are a general who is good at fighting. Let me tell me if you have any chance of winning?" Liu Hong looked at Ye Zhao and said in a deep voice.

"It is not impossible to have a three-month period." Ye Zhao said carefully. If female soldiers were placed in later generations, it would not be a strange thing, but in this era, there are some problems. First, in terms of concept, to train a female soldier into an elite, first of all, we must break their inner concept that women cannot join the army, and then there is training. In three months, let alone female soldiers, even some regular soldiers with foundations, it is impossible to train to the full extent of the elite selected by Yuan Shu from the entire Luoyang army. The weakness of innate power cannot be compensated by acquired efforts.

"Oh?" Liu Hong looked at Ye Zhao unexpectedly: "What do you want, just ask."

Ye Zhao nodded and said, "Then I said, first of all, this soldier must be chosen by the minister. The female soldiers in the palace do not need to be innocent, but they must be free of worries. Those who have no relatives at home are preferred. In addition, it is best to have committed any incidents or be punished frequently."

"What Ye Qing said is not difficult to deal with, but it is easy to understand without any worries. Why do you have to do something wrong? Do you still have to commit trouble frequently?" Liu Hong looked at Ye Zhao with a confused look on his face. Who is not a choice to be obedient, so why does Ye Zhao have to do the opposite?

"Frequently committing things means that one has a tough personality. Such a person is aggressive at heart. Although it is difficult to restrain himself if he is a soldier, he can become a brave general if he uses it well." Ye Zhao said with a smile.

"This matter is not difficult." Liu Hong nodded and said, "What are your requirements?"

"Although it is a five hundred organization, I dare to ask Your Majesty for 800 people. It only takes three months to allow me to train slowly. Therefore, the means will be more fierce. During the training, there will be many casualties and injuries." Ye Zhao bowed and said, "In addition, during the battle, it is best to have a larger venue, the bigger the better, and it is best to set it outside the city."

Liu Hong thought for a while and nodded, "This matter is easy to deal with. Do you have any other requests?"

"I need a closed place. In the past three months, it is best not to let people find out how I train. I want to train in Beim Mountain. I will find a way to do it. In addition, if I win this battle, I hope to preserve this organization and continue to serve Your Majesty. It is best to give some official positions so that these female soldiers can see a way out and inspire their spirit of progress." Ye Zhao bowed.

"Accurate!" Liu Hong nodded and said to Ye Zhao: "I also have a requirement for this battle. You must win, otherwise, not only Wei Wei did not, I am afraid that if you are the Luoyang Order, you will not be able to continue."

After a moment of silence, Ye Zhao bowed to Liu Hongyi and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, as long as no one interferes, I will still be sure to win after March."
