Chapter 625: The army assembles in early February

As Xun Yu said, from that day on, the air in the entire Xu Capital seemed to be frozen. The soldiers carried out the final drills and adjustments, and all kinds of military supplies were mobilized from all over the country to facilitate the transportation to the front line as soon as possible.

The first batch of supplies began to be transported towards the front line, and the front line corps, due to the separation of military and political relations, the material warehouses have been established, only need the official order to start the war arrives, the corps can immediately send troops, at least before the arrival of the first batch of supplies in the rear, it is completely possible to carry out a month-long strong operation!

"I have to say that the system of separation of military and political affairs that you proposed at the beginning is indeed very convenient!" Cao Cao was eating dinner, and due to the increase in work, she had to stay and work overtime. In fact, it's not just her, many yamen are like this.

"It's also an honor for my subordinates to be able to help the lord!" Wang Yong is not easy at all at the moment, as the head chef of the Central Army, he also needs to deal with a lot of things. In these years, a happy mood equals the strongest combat effectiveness, and in the final analysis, it is to ensure that the marching rations are delicious, and compressed biscuits and other things, and he also takes advantage of the last moment to improve them.

The old version has all been transported to the front line, which can fully support a month of strong operations. The new version is in production, the problem is that there are still three days to go before the expedition!

"There's been a period of time when I can't drink afternoon tea...... Cao Cao ate dinner in two bites, and then continued to work, in order to save time, dinner is mainly required to be streamlined, and it is good to fill your stomach quickly.

"Subordinates can bring some flower tea or something to accompany the army, at least to ensure that the officers can drink it!" Wang Yong proposed.

"Starting today, we may not only have to fight against Lu Bu, but also beware of Yuan Shao from the north moving south. Not only that, but Sun Ce in the south, no one knows if he will go north. I won't be in Xudu for at least a few months, and there may be changes here at any time, so most of the financial revenue has to be invested in military spending! Cao Cao shook his head, "The whole army is estimated to enter a state of frugality......"

"Then how about I use my private money to subsidize it a little?" Wang Yong leaned over.

"Didn't you invest your money in the construction of the fiefdom recently?" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong with interest.

"It is said to be a fief, not an independent kingdom. Because that mountain is my fiefdom, I took the back door to pay in installments and temporarily occupied it. Originally, in order to buy that mountainous area, there was a surplus of money saved, and the rest of the clansmen could build it themselves, and I actually had a lot of spare money here. Wang Yong said with a smile.

"In that case...... Then I'm disrespectful. Cao Cao accepted Wang Yong's kindness as a matter of course. Afternoon tea or something, since you can keep it, then don't treat yourself too badly.

"That's right!" Cao Cao suddenly thought of something, "Ling is almost three months pregnant, and the reaction of the first child will be stronger, have you taken care of her?" This time you went out with the army, and she was in charge of staying behind, although she had already entered the security period, to be honest, I didn't really want her to have anything! ”

"I've always been careful about my diet, and Yin will stay to take care of her, plus Yeon will also stay, so it's not a big problem. Now I'm worried about the palace, is it really good to let Jia Xu stay? Wang Yong asked rhetorically.

"Jia Xu has always been low-key, does not associate with anyone, and is the best person to stay!" Cao Cao is quite relieved of Jia Xu, the other party does not interact with anyone except her, and he does his job very well. Seriously, if it weren't for the separation of the military and the government, and at the same time, there were already Sima Yi, Xu Shu, Guo Jia and Wang Yong in the army as the main strategists, it is estimated that she would have to be brought with her to rest assured.

Of course, according to the position, Wang Yong is just a cook, so it's okay to talk about it privately. Guo Jia is a military advisor who is in charge of the entire staff group. Xu Shu and Sima Yi both joined the army, mainly to supplement or expand Guo Jia's strategy. Of course, if there is a better suggestion, it can also be made.

Healthy competition or something, Cao Cao will never mind, because the more competition there is, the more efficient the staff committee can play, and the more perfect the strategy will be. Healthy competition between generals, then the overall quality of the army may be improved, which also means that the strength of the imperial court has become stronger as a whole!

"To be honest, in fact, I'm still a little worried......," Wang Yong said, "Before Yin and His Majesty gave birth, I was not by their side, and this time Ling is in the penny, I guess I am not by my side." ”

"Who made you the head chef of the march, the separation of military and political was also proposed by you, and it is impossible to stay behind. As for compensation, let's think about it when we return triumphantly! Cao Cao reminded.

"My subordinates know this very well." Wang Yong nodded, then packed up his things and left.

"Then I'll ...... too" Cao Cao looked at the documents on the table, shook his head, and continued to bury himself in the case.

Three days later, January was finally over, and February was coming. To be precise, it is the second month of the lunar calendar, in other words, it is almost around March of the new calendar, the weather begins to warm up rapidly, and spring ploughing also begins.

Outside the city of Xudu, an army of 10,000 people was assembled at this time.

After two days of army expansion and training, the Yanzhou Army had 30,000 soldiers and 50,000 auxiliaries; 20,000 soldiers and 30,000 auxiliaries of the Yuzhou Legion; 10,000 soldiers and 20,000 auxiliaries of the Yongzhou Legion; 10,000 soldiers and 20,000 auxiliaries of the Yangzhou Army; Central Army, 10,000 soldiers, 30,000 auxiliaries; At the same time, Nanyang and Luoyang each have 5,000 soldiers and 10,000 auxiliary soldiers!

Under the command of the imperial court, there are 90,000 soldiers under the actual control, 110,000 auxiliary soldiers, and 30,000 soldiers in Tuntian, but this part of the soldiers will not be easily used unless they have to, and the main responsibility is still Tuntian, and a certain amount of training is also carried out in peacetime.

Gongsun Chan has officially joined the imperial court, and in accordance with the edict of the edict, he went to Yongzhou to serve as a partial general; Zhao Yun went to the Yanzhou Army, and at the same time returned to the imperial court, as well as Tian Yu and Tian Chou, one Wen and one Wu, Tian Yu went to serve in the Yangzhou Army, while Tian Chou stayed in the Yamen of the Central Shaofu. This arrangement is nothing more than the hope that Tian Chou and Jia Xu will ensure the safety of the palace with one article and one martial arts.

As for the other talents that Wang Yong originally expected, they have either fallen or do not exist at all.

"The world is peaceful, but there is a thief Lu Bu, as a Han official...... Cao Cao looked at the 30,000 troops at the head of the lower place on the high platform that was temporarily piled up, and complained about Lu Bu's crimes. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than the final mobilization.

At the next place, the first is the two thousand tiger guards of Xu Chu's department, which is Cao Cao's personal guard. Then there are the four generals He Qi, Xu Sheng, Zhu Ling and Lu Qian, whose positions are actually some miscellaneous generals, not even as good as an orthodox partial general, but each of them commands an army of 20,000, which is actually the general command.

The system of supervising the army began to spread, and every year many civilian scholars entered the army to serve as supervisors. After publicity, the soldiers below naturally knew whose army they were and whose food they were eating.

Not to mention these four people, even generals like Xiahoudun and Cao Ren can still privatize these armies. There were only three private armies in the entire imperial court, one was the Tiger Guard, the other was the Tiger Leopard Cavalry, and finally the Qingzhou Soldiers.

"Everyone, come with me!" The mobilization has ended, and Cao Cao waved his arms and announced the official expedition.

"Whoa!" The generals responded, and the middle and low-level officers below also responded, and the army was officially launched from then on!
