If you look at it this way, the current Xu Huang, Zang Ba and others cannot be mobilized.

At the same time, those islanders on Kyushu Island.

Liu Zheng dispatched Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and others on Kyushu Island.

The entire Kyushu Island has not yet been completely occupied.In the north-northeast direction of Kyushu Island.There is still a large area.

It is the aborigines of this island of Kyushu.

In the past two years, although Zhou Tai has gradually brought the entire Kyushu Island under his rule, more of the territory is an unexplored territory.

In addition, the whereabouts of Himiko's younger brother are currently unknown.

Kyushu Island can't relax either, soldiers and horses must be stationed at any time.

The naval forces of Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and others could not be mobilized either.

At the same time, Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses guarding Funan could not be dispatched back either.

Because the journey is too far, even if he sends troops to catch Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses, it will not be able to quench his thirst.

Therefore, it is urgent to recruit soldiers and horses again.

He decided to expand the soldiers and horses of three more battalions.

There may be a big war at any time, and some manpower must be prepared in advance, just in case.

As for recruiting soldiers and horses, he didn't need to spend a lot of trouble.

Because of the recruitment system he adopted, some reserve soldiers and horses will be recruited in advance in counties and counties.

These soldiers and horses only need to be directly dispatched from various counties and counties to the newly established military camps.

His newly formed army can be formed in a short time.

After two or three months of training, this newly formed army can go to the battlefield.

As the newly formed legion, Liu Zheng, who is responsible for commanding the legion, has already had a candidate.

The candidate for the Tenth Battalion was none other than Liu Zheng's disciple Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were together before, and they have a deep relationship, like brothers and sisters.

Working together for several years, we already have a strong tacit understanding. This time we went to the Xianbei grassland and defeated Ke Bineng, which has proved the abilities of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.

The two of them have enough strength and ability to take charge of an army alone.

In the past, when Liu Zheng asked them to be generals and commanders of a battalion, some people might question them, but after this incident, no one dared to question the strength of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu anymore.

There was no need for Liu Zheng to merge the two of them together.

It is entirely possible to separate them and each be in charge of an army.

Anyway, they are fully capable of this.

After all, compared to other generals, Zhou Yu, as Liu Zheng's apprentice, still won Liu Zheng's trust.

In any case, Zhou Yu grew up under the watchful eye of Liu Zheng, and his feelings are here. He is also the second generation of rulers cultivated by Liu Zheng.

Candidates to assist the prince in the future.

In addition, Zhou Yu now has the experience of leading an army alone. With him, he will be able to train an army and horses in a short period of time.

In this way, the Tenth Army already has candidates.

As for the No.11 Battalion, there are also candidates.

It was Zhang Liao who joined Liu Zheng under Ding Yuan.

In fact, Zhang Liao has been relying on Liu Zheng for some years. Since the defeat of Ding Yuan and Liu Biao, they have surrendered to Liu Zheng.

It's just that under Liu Zheng's subordinates, Zhang Liao has never been important. Firstly, it is because of the surrender, and secondly, because Liu Zheng has too many famous generals, and there are not many opportunities to use Zhang Liao.

So Zhang Liao has been nothing more than a colonel for these years. A few days ago, he was successfully promoted to major general.

After becoming a major general, Zhang Liao's ability and brilliance were gradually revealed in front of others.

Liu Zheng already understood Zhang Liao's ability, so he naturally knew how powerful Zhang Liao was, so he promoted Zhang Liao early on.

In terms of ability alone, he is no weaker than Liu Zheng's Xu Huang and Gan Ning's generation.

Furthermore, after these years of tempering, Zhang Liao has taken refuge in Liu Zheng, and he has already gained Liu Zheng's trust, allowing him to take on an important position.

Therefore, Zhang Liao is also a candidate to become the coach of the No.11 battalion.

As for the No.12 Battalion, Liu Zheng decided to give it to Zhang Yun.

Zhang Xi's strength can also be demonstrated one or two in history. He is a character that even Sima Yi is afraid of.

He is the top powerhouse in the middle and late period of the Three Kingdoms.

Moreover, this time, Zhang Yun made a lot of contributions during Liu Zheng's Northern Expedition.

Although Zhang Xi was the latest famous general to join Liu Zheng, he was originally subordinate to Yuan Shang and indirectly to Liu Zheng, so he was not considered a surrendered general.

Although Zhang He lacked some great contributions under Liu Zheng's command, and his ability as a man has not been verified, but with the foundation of this Northern Expedition, Liu Zheng recommended Zhang He as the leader.

No one else will have an opinion either.

Therefore, there are candidates for the chief generals of the three newly added battalions.

Liu Zheng first issued the order to add three battalions of soldiers and horses, and then began to order Tai Shici and Wenpin to rush to Jingzhou to support from the garrison.

The crisis in Jingzhou can be regarded as a temporary solution.

Chapter 1000 Two hundred 31 Benefits of Reserve Service

After the people who went to support rushed to Jingzhou, what Liu Zheng needed to do was to summon the new commander of the third battalion to meet him.

Although it is said that there are three new battalions of soldiers and horses, these generals, especially Zhang Liao and Zhang He, were all promoted by Liu Zhengxin.

For their rise, some controversies still need to be ruled out. Liu Zheng needs to appease them well, and at the same time arrange a place for them to recruit new soldiers and horses.

Liu Zheng summoned Zhou Yu, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Yun to meet and arranged for them to take the letter of appointment to train the new corps. Before that, they needed to arrange work and determine their goals.

The first person to meet Liu Zheng was naturally Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu stayed in Jianye all the time, and often came to the palace to play with Liu Zheng's son and listen to Liu Zheng's teachings. When Liu Zheng summoned him, he didn't ask anyone to call him.

Just happened to meet Zhou Yu, and immediately remembered something, and then called Zhou Yu.

"Master, how is the situation in Jingzhou? Do you want me and Sun Ce to bring people there too?"

When Zhou Yu saw Liu Zheng, his first thought was to hang out in Jingzhou.

He likes fighting very much, and is still very interested in fighting things. This time Liu Zheng didn't let him go to support Jingzhou in the first place, so he still has some complaints.

However, although he had opinions in his heart, he didn't dare to tell Liu Zheng. He could only hold it in his heart. When he saw Liu Zheng, he was just eager to try, and told Liu Zheng that he wanted to go to Jingzhou.

"For the situation in Jingzhou, it is enough for Tai Shici and Wenpin to go there, so there is no need to fanfare, and you will be added."

Zhou Yu was still looking forward to it, but after hearing Liu Zheng's answer, he was immediately discouraged.

Zhou Yu was a little disappointed, but Liu Zheng's next sentence lifted Zhou Yu's spirits again.

"However, although you don't need to go to Jingzhou, I still have important things to do for you."

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, Zhou Yu was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly asked.

"What is it? Master, I will definitely complete the task you gave me!"

"It's not a big deal. In the past year, you and Sun Ce have both grown up and changed a lot. I'm very excited to be a teacher. I want you to personally take charge of a battalion of troops."

When Liu Zheng saw Zhou Yu, he didn't beat around the bush with him, and told him his plan straight to the point.

Zhou Yu became even more excited after hearing this.

"Let Sun Ce temporarily replace Tai Shici and guard Xuzhou, and you, stay in Jianye, recruit soldiers and horses from Wu County, Danyang County, Kuaiji County and other places, and retrain a battalion of soldiers."

In the past few years, because Liu Zheng has occupied Jianye, the entire vicinity of Yangzhou has become the capital, and the population has increased greatly, so there are many more soldiers who can be prepared.

Over the years, Liu Zheng has seldom recruited troops in the border of Yangzhou, so there are still many troops around Yangzhou that can be recruited.

Liu Zheng believed in Zhou Yu, and it was just right for Zhou Yu to recruit soldiers and horses here.

"really?"

Zhou Yu looked at Liu Zheng in surprise. He was a little excited when he heard Liu Zheng say that he could command a battalion of soldiers and horses by himself.

After all, Zhou Yu's military rank is already at the rank of lieutenant general. After the Northern Expedition, his and Sun Ce's combat achievements have been greatly improved, enough to enter the palace, compared with some other famous generals.

"Of course it's true. Just in time, our spies found out that Liu Bei came prepared this time, and there may be more dangers behind, so the troops may be insufficient, and we need to increase troops in a short time, so I can only let you take on this important task."

Zhou Yu has this experience, but in a short period of time, he has trained a team of soldiers and horses, and their combat effectiveness is not bad.

There is naturally no problem in letting Zhou Yu go out.

"Master, this disciple promises to complete the task you gave me!"

How could Zhou Yu refuse? He wished that Liu Zheng would let him take charge of the army alone, so that he and Sun Ce would be on an equal footing.

"Haha, then it's settled. Go find Feng Xiao now, get the edict of appointment, and go to train soldiers and horses as soon as possible."

Liu Zheng and Zhou Yu are also familiar with each other. Between them, they are not only masters and apprentices, but also monarchs and ministers, and even love father and son.

After Zhou Yu received Liu Zheng's order, he went straight down without any hesitation, and found Guo Jia. After getting the letter of appointment from Guo Jia, he went straight to the school field outside Jianye City, and took the first place. A place to train recruits.

Then they directly sent people to the counties and counties in various places to transfer these reserve soldiers in the counties and counties.

Liu Zheng's subordinates have always followed the recruitment system.

Because the elite soldier system was adopted at the beginning, many people who wanted to join the army would not directly enter the barracks.

Instead, they serve in the second echelon of reserve soldiers in various places, serving as the armed forces of counties and counties in various places, and on the other hand, they can directly replenish troops when the major military camps need them.

Every time there is less, the counties and counties in various places will replenish some. In each county and county, there will be a reserve army of 2000 people.

When Liu Zheng needed to add new military camps, it was actually very simple. Zhou Yu took the edict to transfer troops and went directly to the counties and counties in various places, and asked all the reserve soldiers in the counties and counties to take away all the reserve soldiers and gather them in the scheduled military camps. Training will do.

Moreover, these reserve soldiers are not complete recruits. They have been trained as early as when they were in various counties and counties.

Therefore, in a short period of time, even in two or three months, Zhou Yu can successfully train a new army.

After making arrangements for Zhou Yu, Liu Zheng asked Zhang Liao to meet him.

Zhang Liao and Zhang He are not in Jianye City, they both work under Xu Huang in the north.

It will take a few days for them to come over.

Liu Zheng waited for several days in Jianye City, and Zhang Liao and Zhang Yun arrived late.

In Liu Zheng's study, I met Liu Zheng.

"The last general, Zhang Liao, has met His Majesty."

Zhang Liao knelt down on the ground, this was the first time he saw Liu Zheng so closely.

Although I have met Liu Zheng before, but I saw Liu Zheng as an enemy in the early years, and I have some disdain for Liu Zheng, but after joining Liu Zheng's command, I have a better understanding of Liu Zheng.

Zhang Liao's admiration for Liu Zheng comes from the heart, and he finally understands how powerful Liu Zheng and the country created by Liu Zheng are.

"Wen Yuan, don't be too polite, I haven't seen you for a while, and you are still so brave."

Zhang Liao has been assigned to Qingzhou recently. When Guan Hai and Zang Ba's soldiers and horses went to support Jizhou, Zhang Liao was in Qingzhou to train soldiers and horses and handle things.

Chapter 1000 Two Hundred and Thirty-two Newly Added Three Battalions

"Your Majesty is admirable, the last general is a warrior, only this body is not bad."

Zhang Liao was not as casual as Zhou Yu in front of Liu Zheng.

After all, he was born as a general. Although his old boss, Lu Bu, was also under Liu Zheng, he was still not so relaxed, and he was conscientious in doing his own thing.

Liu Zheng looked at Zhang Liao, and continued to speak to Zhang Liao.

"How long have you trusted me?"

Zhang Liao thought for a while, and then slowly answered Liu Zheng.

"Three years."

"Three years, it's been a while. Back then, you were still Ding Yuan's most powerful general."

When Liu Zheng heard this, he didn't expect that Zhang Liao had been relying on him for three years.
