Hanzhong County has a population of 650,000, but not all of the 56,000 soldiers under Liu Zhang's command originated from Hanzhong!
When Liu Zhang first came to Hanzhong, he brought about 5,000 veterans. Secondly, the 10,000 bandits were not included in the population of Hanzhong County. The 16,000 people from the Han Xing Camp, the Fall Camp and the original Xiyuan Army Yulin Army were not included in the population of Hanzhong County.
Nor does it belong to Hanzhong.
Calculated in this way, there are at least 31,000 people under Liu Zhang's command who are not the burdened population of Hanzhong County.
If calculated based on ten soldiers to one, Hanzhong County can raise at least 90,000 troops!
However, Hanzhong County could not afford to support 90,000 horses, and Liu Zhang would not be so aggressive!
"Fifty-six thousand people may seem like a lot, but in fact, when it comes time to use troops, they will still be stretched thin!"
After Liu Zhang sighed, Yan Shan immediately offered his advice.
"My lord, at the moment Hanzhong County still focuses on development. If we suddenly recruit too many soldiers, it will definitely destroy Hanzhong County's production. Please think twice, lord!"
Liu Zhang smiled and nodded, knowing that Yan Shan must have misunderstood what he meant.
"Yan Juncheng, please sit down, that's not what I meant."
Yan Shan said nothing more and sat down temporarily to listen to Liu Zhang's next words. However, judging from his expression, if Liu Zhang still had the idea of recruiting a large number of troops, Yan Shan would stop him in time.
"Now that troubled times have arrived, the use of troops is imminent! We cannot affect the normal order in Hanzhong, but we must have sufficient troops to deal with these situations! Therefore, I have decided to slightly adjust the deployment of military forces."
"Huang Zhong listens to orders."
After receiving the military order, Huang Zhong naturally couldn't just straighten his back, but stood up and walked to the middle.
"The end is here!"
"The Wushe Battalion plays an irreplaceable role in offense, defense and field operations. Now I order you to select 5,000 people from the remaining 10,000 bandits and Xiyuan and Yulin troops to replenish the Wushe Battalion to 10,000 people.
scale."
Liu Zhang no longer intends to silence Huang Zhong and his martial arts camp, and it's time to show their minions to the world!
"The general will obey your orders!"
Huang Zhong was very excited. It seemed that the first victory in the next military campaign would undoubtedly be his!
"Zhao Yun obeys the order!"
Zhao Yun acted extremely quickly and stood up directly to receive the order.
"The end is here!"
"Zilong, now it's time for your cavalry battalion to make a qualitative leap. You can choose as many soldiers as you like and try to replenish it to five thousand people."
Zhao Yun did not directly accept the order, but looked embarrassed.
"My Lord, the Cavalry Battalion has extremely high requirements for soldiers. I'm afraid..."
"It doesn't matter! You just need to strictly control your riding and shooting skills. As for the coordination of riding and shooting, I have my own way!"
Starting from today, Liu Zhang has completely reached his own territory, and some unknown technologies can gradually enter the stage of history!
Liu Zhang didn't understand muskets and gunpowder and couldn't make them. But Liu Zhang still knew simple things like stirrups, saddles, and iron hoofs!
As long as there are three treasures on the horse, the balance problem caused by the attack can be perfectly solved!
"The general will obey your orders!"
Although he still had many doubts, Zhao Yun still accepted the order. He knew that Liu Zhang would never talk nonsense. Since he said it could be solved, there must be a solution.
"Zhang Liao listens to the order!"
Zhang Liao was slightly surprised, he didn't expect that he would be involved!
"The end is here!"
"Replenish the Han Xing camp to 5,000 men and be ready to go to war at any time!"
"The general will obey your orders!"
Zhang Liao's pupils shrank and he was suddenly excited! In the past few days, he also understood one thing. Under Liu Zhang's command, five thousand troops was a dividing line. When the number reached five thousand, they belonged to Liu Zhang's direct troops.
Not long after he joined the Liu Zhang Group, he was defeated by Yan Liang not long ago. Zhang Liao was still feeling guilty, feeling that he was highly valued by Liu Zhang but had no merit. Unexpectedly, just after returning to Hanzhong, Liu Zhang promoted him again, which made Zhang Liao feel a
It feels like a scholar would die for his confidant!
"Gao Shun obeys the order!"
"The end is here!"
Gao Shun stood up and then took the order in the middle. It was not very fast, but it gave people a very serious feeling.
"I have seen the charm of the trapped camp, and I hope to increase the number of soldiers in the trapped camp."
Unlike Zhang Liao, Gao Shun did not accept the order directly with joy, but fell into thinking.
"Lord, please add up to two thousand more people. We also need to select the quality of the soldiers."
Gao Shun's answer made everyone even more stunned. Unexpectedly, some people thought that he had too many soldiers under his command!
Liu Zhang nodded, only he knew in his heart that this was Gao Shun's style of doing things!
"Okay! You can take care of everything yourself! By the way, there is also armor in the arsenal. You can get it by yourself. You don't need me to tell you more, right?"
Gao Shun's expression finally changed slightly. Of course he understood what Liu Zhang meant! If you are trapped in the camp, you must become the strongest soldier in the world!
"As you command!"
Gao Shun accepted the order with his hands, and then returned to his seat without any sloppiness.
Liu Zhang was very reassured by Gao Shun. Although he joined last, his level of trust was no less than that of Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others.
Gao Shun's character is very much like that of a professional soldier. For him, the only concept is executing orders.
After all the combat troops were deployed, Liu Zhang looked at County Lieutenant Yang Lin.
"Lieutenant Yang Lin."
Yang Lin quickly stood up and walked to the middle, holding his hands to receive Liu Zhang's military order.
"The end is here!"
"Lieutenant Yang, the bandit soldiers in the field, the Xiyuan Army, and the Yulin Army are all mixed into one and organized into the field reserve. After the generals have selected the soldiers, the number will be 20,000, and you will be responsible for the training.
, and at the same time cooperate with Guoyuan in farming."
"The general will obey your orders!"
Yang Lin has no dissatisfaction with this arrangement. He is no longer young, and the battlefield is no longer his stage. Perhaps training in the rear is his destination.
"By the way, there must be 20,000 reserves at all times!"
Liu Zhang was afraid that Yang Lin didn't understand what he meant, so he explained it again.
Yang Lin did not agree directly, but quietly looked at Yan Shan. After all, Yan Shan had just raised objections to the conscription.
Yan Shan met Yang Lin's gaze and shook his head slightly, indicating that he had no objection.
"The general will obey your orders!"
Even Yan Shan didn't have any objections, and Yang Lin didn't have any objections. He accepted the order happily.
Everything was arranged properly, Liu Zhang looked at Yan Shan with a smile.
"Yan Juncheng, my arrangement will not cause turmoil in Hanzhong!"
Yan Shan knew very well that Liu Zhang did not blame him, but only made fun of him, so he responded with a smile.
"Lord, as long as you don't suddenly recruit tens of thousands of troops, I'll be relieved!"
"Hahaha, you, you!"
Liu Zhang couldn't help but laugh. The civil and military men under his command had a close relationship with him. They were awe-inspiring and yet at the same time friendly, which made Liu Zhang extremely comfortable.
Afterwards, many matters were discussed in detail, and after repeatedly confirming with his subordinate Wenwu that nothing was missing, Liu Zhang planned to end today's meeting.
"Generals, soldiers are the foundation of war. We must select the soldiers as soon as possible and train them as soon as possible. Maybe it won't be long before a new battle begins!"
"I'll obey!"
Just as he was about to dissolve the meeting, a soldier suddenly ran outside the door and knelt down in front of Liu Zhang.
"For your information, my lord, there is a messenger coming from Mianzhu."
