Huang Yueying and Cai Yan looked at Zhang Lang with a very terrible look. Zhang Lang sighed, "Hey, I don't want to do that, but those gentry think that I am an evil demon and heretic, and I want to be an enemy of me. Since that's the case, I can't let them down!"

Huang Yueying smiled with a pursed lips. Cai Yan said with a puzzled look: "I really can't understand. The country is in trouble. What's wrong with asking rich people to donate some? They insist on opposing it! And they are willing to rebel because of this! What exactly are they doing for?"

Huang Yueying glanced at Cai Yan and smiled and said, "Not everyone is as kind as Miss Cai!"

Cai Yan still didn't understand: "Even if this is the case, there is no need to rebel, right?"

Huang Yueying frowned and said, "It's not as simple as you imagine! For many years, the gentry has enjoyed privileges, not only in the land, but also in the officialdom. Just say to be an official. For hundreds of years, I dare not say that they all came from the gentry, but at least 99 out of the 100 people came from the gentry..." He glanced at Zhang Lang and said half-jokingly: "However, everything has changed in the area ruled by the eldest brother. Whether the official can be valued is not the birth of the gentry, but his own talent. Not only that, the change in the land transfer policy and tax policy have made the privileges enjoyed by the gentry in other aspects no longer exist! A group that was originally arrogant suddenly found that all the privileges they originally had no longer exist, so naturally they would feel panic and resentful! Therefore, rebellion is naturally reasonable!"

Cai Yan frowned and murmured: "Is it just for the sake of interests? Is it that important?"

Huang Yueying smiled and said, "Ms. Cai has a noble character, so naturally she cannot understand their thoughts!"

Cai Yan looked at Zhang Lang and asked with some concern: "Will the gentry rebel?"

Zhang Lang took a sip of tea and smiled and said, "This is not something I can care about!"

Cai Yan said angrily: "Are you not worried at all?"

Zhang Lang and Huang Yueying exchanged a tacit look, and Huang Yueying smiled and said, "The elder brother actually follows only one thing. If you don't make trouble, everything will be easy to say. If you don't make trouble, you will never show mercy!"

Cai Yan sighed, picked up the teacup, took a sip of the coarse tea, and frowned slightly.

Zhang Lang took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and asked Cai Yan: "What does Mr. Cai thinks the gentry are too selfish." Cai Yan frowned and said: "My father thinks the gentry are too selfish." He glanced at Zhang Lang, "I am also worried that my elder brother will carry out a great purge on the gentry!"

Zhang Lang smiled, "Don't worry about this at all! As long as they don't make trouble for me, I won't do anything to them!"

Cai Yan smiled bitterly. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Lang in a daze. Seeing this, Zhang Lang asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Looking at me like this?" Cai Yan came to his senses, quickly lowered his head, a blush appeared on his face, and whispered: "I'm wondering, what would happen if the elder brother unified the world?"

Zhang Lang smiled, put his head over, and joked: "I will definitely assign you to be a concubine!"

Huang Yueying burst into laughter. Cai Yan was embarrassed, her face was as red as fire, and she didn't dare to look at Zhang Lang.

It was late at night, and Zhang Lang was still looking at the report in the study, looking thoughtful. This was the report I just received. Regarding Cao Cao, the information said that Cao Cao had established a large water camp on the Linzi sea surface, and the newly recruited 200,000 sailors are stepping up training. Training the navy, it seems that Cao Cao's next target is Sun Jian! This is good news!

Zhang Lang stayed in Luoyang for a while, and then went to Bingzhou with the support of the guards. He inspected Bingzhou for a while, and finally came to Taiyuan, where the Bingzhou capital was located, and inspected the local civilian army. The armor was firm, the flags were displayed, the queue was neat and full of spirit, and his posture was almost the same as the regular army under Zhang Lang! Zhang Lang was quite amazed and asked Dong Ying beside him: "Yingying, why did you train these civilian army like this?" Dong Ying glanced at Chen Gong and smiled: "It's not my credit, these civilian army were trained by Lord Chen Gong!"

Zhang Lang quickly looked at Chen Gong and sighed: "Public platform, it's really not simple right away! Haha, it seems that I really did not choose the wrong person!"

Chen Gong clasped his fists and said, "My lord is a mistake!"

Zhang Lang patted Chen Gong on the shoulder, looked at the neatly arranged civilian troops below, and asked Chen Gong: "How many people are there in total in the civilian army?"

"Report to the lord, there are more than 136,000 people in total!"

Zhang Lang was surprised, "So much?"

Chen Gong explained: "Everyone in the border area is brave and good at fighting, but in fact there are more people!"

Zhang Lang looked at the cavalry troops in the queue and asked, "There are cavalry?"

"Report to the lord, the people in the north have a tradition of raising horses, so those who have good horses in their families are organized into cavalry."

"How did you get the armor and ordnance?"

Chen Gong smiled and said, "It is mostly the reserves left by Yuan Shao's army in warehouses in various places, and it is enough to equip the army with more than 200,000!"

Zhang Lang laughed and said, "I don't think Bingzhou needs to be assigned to a regular army. Just have your civilian army!"

Chen Gong hurriedly said, "No! Without the regular legion as the mainstay, these civilian soldiers would probably be unable to take on major responsibilities. After all, they are not specialized soldiers and they have to do their own jobs most of the time!"

Zhang Lang asked curiously: "I'm very curious, how did you manage these civilian troops?"

"More than 130,000 civilians are divided into three parts and serve in turn for one month. All civilians, regardless of whether they are in service or not, must conduct military training on time! In order to facilitate handling of emergencies, they are managed in the county town. There is an arsenal in the county town. If necessary, the combat forces of the whole county can be mobilized within a few days!"

Zhang Lang nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Does the Public Administration think this method can be promoted and implemented?"

Chen Gong thought for a moment and replied: "It's okay to have Hanzhong in Guanzhong in Xiliang, but there may be some problems with Luoyang and Xichuan. Because Hanzhong in Guanzhong in Xiliang has been through war for a long time, the people are not afraid of war. They have long been used to such a life and militarized management of them. They are easy to accept, but they will be happy! Luoyang and Xichuan are different. The people in these two places have superior lives and many scholars. It is almost impossible for them to accept militarized management!"

Zhang Lang nodded thinking.

Chen Gong clasped his fists and said, "There is no need for the lord to implement military management in all places, which is not good! Just implement military management in the right place!"

Zhang Lang smiled and said, "Do you know about Gongtai? I want to continue the militarized management to balance the influence of Confucianism."
