    After Liu Ke defeated the Allies, he became famous. Especially the princes who did not participate in the war admired Liu Ke even more.

    That was a genuine army of one million men, without any moisture at all. Liu Ke relied on his wisdom and strength to make a comeback.  Use the power of two states to fight against six states.

    When Cao Cao¡¯s message was released, everyone was not optimistic about Liu Ke because there was no hope.

    Although Dongyang Hou is powerful, can he be stronger than a million-strong army?

    In fact, even Liu Ke didn¡¯t feel confident.

    Now, millions of allied troops have been wiped out, and we are finally proud. Yangzhou has finally ushered in a new page.

    Liu Yu was filled with emotion after hearing the news.  As for Liu Yan's attack on Jiaozhou, in his opinion, it was the Han clan who were killing each other themselves.

    Now, in the whole world, only Liu Ke and he can be called the pillars of the Han Dynasty.  As for Liu Zhang, the pattern is not enough.  As for Liu Bei, it is difficult to confirm.

    So, Liu Yu sent a congratulatory letter to Yangzhou. Even though he was not optimistic about Liu Bei, he also mentioned at the end that if possible, he hoped that Liu Ke would let Liu Bei go.

    But, how is this possible?

    Liu Ke has never been a good man or woman. As the culprit, Liu Bei must pay the price, even if he was deceived.

    Since these days, Liu Ke has been conducting secret visits to Li Ruming, but there is still no news.  This man has a knack for hiding himself.

    "Don't slack off in pursuing Li Ru." Liu Ke warned.

    "Yes, my lord." Xun You said. Now that the intelligence power in his hands has been assigned to the Ministry of War, he is still responsible for tracking down Li Ru.

    "How are you preparing for the military expansion?" Liu Ke suddenly changed the topic.

    "It went very smoothly." Xun You summed it up in just three words.

    The attack of one million Allied troops on Yangzhou finally gave Liu Ke a sense of crisis. When the time came to use his troops, he would regret having fewer troops. Therefore, Liu Ke did not stop doing anything and planned to expand his army.

    Everyone in Yangzhou expressed support.  Some businessmen even suggested that they could donate money to help Yangzhou overcome all difficulties.

    However, this is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two.

    Liu Ke did not accept the merchant's kindness. At the same time, he also realized a problem. Recently, merchants have always been a little inflated.

    Perhaps it was Liu Ke¡¯s victory over a million-strong army that gave them courage.

    Find an opportunity to tidy up.

    It can be said that the Chamber of Commerce is Liu Ke's biological son, but even a son must abide by the rules.

    Liu will not let go of military power.

    After several discussions, combined with the opinions of the Ministry of War.  The number of defenders in Jiaozhou is estimated at 150,000. It can be said that this number is not enough and can barely complete the task of guarding the territory.

    Liu Ke also agreed to this plan. Jiaozhou was vast and sparsely populated, so it was just right to support an army of 150,000.  Moreover, the issue of the loyalty of the side generals is also a factor that Liu Ke needs to consider.

    "Otherwise, if two to three hundred thousand troops rebel in Jiaozhou, wouldn't Liu be busy to death?"  He didn't want to take another big boat to go south.

    Of course, this does not mean that Guan Hai will rebel, it is just a precautionary measure. How could Liu Ke not be wary at all?

    150,000 is a reasonable number.

    These 150,000 people still have to be divided, and it is impossible for Guan Hai to command them all by himself.  These matters will have to wait for the Ministry of War to submit detailed documents before Liu Ke can make a decision directly.

    As for Yangzhou, as a populous state, the supply of troops is not a problem, nor is money. Liu Ke can fully support it.

    But considering that the main force was recruited in Yangzhou, the number of defenders was set at 200,000.

    The number is not very large. Compared with the 150,000 people in Jiaozhou, the importance of Yangzhou cannot be reflected.

    However, the main battle corps was stationed in Yangzhou, and the role of the defenders was only to intimidate Xiao Xiao.  No one dares to provoke Yangzhou now. At least in the past few years, Yangzhou has been as stable as Mount Tai.

    The expansion of the main battle corps is more troublesome, involving many generals.

    Liu Ke first spent a day listening to their opinions, and then called Mi Zhu and Liu Ye for discussion.

    "Money is not a problem, the inventory is sufficient." Mi Zhu said.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Count Courses's great weapon, we can borrow money if you don't have enough.

    "The maintenance of the main battle corps is not a simple matter and must be considered in the long term." Liu Kedao.

    "Yes!" Mi Zhu said with cupped hands.

    "How about the Ministry of Industry, how long will it take to complete the equipment?" Liu Keroad.

    "One year." Liu Ye said, obviously he had done enough homework.

    However, Liu Ke was still not satisfied and said, "Is there any way to speed it up?"

    One year to prepare is too long for Liu Ke.  If possible, he planned to take Xuzhou while the princes were severely weakened.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????? Otherwise, as time goes by, the princes will recover a little, and misfortunes will happen.

    "My Lord, our army delivered 50,000 pieces of armor to Yuan Shao, and promised Yuan Shu" Liu Ye's complaint was interrupted by Liu Ke before he finished.

    Liu Ye is meticulous in his work, and this is probably the best result he has calculated.  It was impossible for Liu Ke to force the craftsmen to work around the clock because of this kind of thing.

    Nowadays, there are various situations such as: first, insufficient equipment; second, the main battle corps lost troops in the counterattack; third, the combat effectiveness of the main battle corps cannot be reduced

    To sum up, it is most appropriate to expand the strength of the main battle corps to 300,000.  The most important soldiers were drawn from the garrison, plus tens of thousands of new troops trained by the Tibetan tyrants.

    The Tiger Guard has 50,000 troops, with Zhao Yun as its commander and Chen Heng and Zhang Ying as its captains.  Fan Neng has died in battle.

    The Yangzhou cavalry army numbered 50,000 people, and the commander-in-chief was Taishi Ci.

    The Chishui Army consisted of 50,000 men and was led by Gan Ning.

    ??Among them, the establishment of the Tiger Guard has not changed, but the personnel have been supplemented.  Because commanding 50,000 people is already the greatest honor for a general.  Unless it's wartime, it's just pushing the envelope.

    Therefore, Zhao Yun was determined not to expand his army, and Taishi Ci was the same, but he just changed his name to distinguish him from the Dongyang Army.

    Gan Ning¡¯s army expansion was inexplicable, because in his opinion, 30,000 naval troops were enough.  The number of times we can participate in the war is already very small, so why raise so many people in vain.

    Liu Ke forced the navy to become independent, naturally to prepare for the future navy.

    Fan Neng was the first top general in Yangzhou to die in battle. Liu Ke ordered him to be buried with a rich burial and a pension of up to 50,000 yuan.

    The remaining 150,000 people all belonged to the Dongyang Army, which was also commanded by Liu Ke himself.

    The sudden cavalry camp has 30,000 men and is under the command of Lu Bu.

    Shesheng camp, 30,000 people, commander Huang Zhong.

    Guards camp, 20,000 men, commanded by Dian Wei.

    Falling into the camp, there are 20,000 people, under the command of Gao Shun.

    Mixed camp, 50,000 people, commander Zhang Liao, deputy general Zang Ba.

    As for Xu Chu, he was directly responsible for the personal protection of Liu Ke.

    Therefore, the number of troops in Jiaozhou reached 150,000, the number of officials was 10,000, and the population was 1.5 million.

    The number of Yangzhou troops reached 500,000, with 20,000 officials and a population of 6 million.

    In future generations, this is definitely not a healthy figure.  But in order that the territory would no longer be threatened, Liu Ke had already risked his life.

    It is definitely not an easy task to support so many people. The local garrison had to take on the important role of military commander.

    Liu Ke felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.

    As for the number of officials, it may be confusing, but if you compare it with historical data, you will not be surprised.

    The Shu Kingdom in history had "280,000 households, 940,000 men and women, 102,000 armored soldiers, and 40,000 officials."

    Liu Keyang¡¯s number of troops is a bit exaggerated, but because of his presence, the productivity has already been drastically different.

    Just like now, with the promotion of corn and sweet potatoes, almost no one will starve to death, and more and more people will be born, which effectively increases the population.

    Liu Ke expanded his army crazily, reaching 650,000, causing panic among the princes.

    After Sun Ce got the news, he looked up to the sky and sighed. He had sighed a lot recently.  The same goes for Zhou Yu. He knows best what a 650,000-strong army is.

    Now there are 200,000 people in Jingzhou, and Zhou Yu takes care of all the food, drinks, and toilets. If the number triples, he will definitely go crazy.

    ??And Dongyang Hou has expanded so many troops at once, who dares to provoke him?

    Let alone provoking it, it is now difficult for Jingzhou to protect itself.

    "Within three years, Jingzhou will expand its army to 400,000, otherwise it will absolutely defend itself against Dongyang Hou's attack." Zhou Yu clenched his fists and set a small goal for himself.

    Today, Jingzhou only has a population of more than two million, and it is absolutely impossible to expand to an army of 400,000.

    Therefore, Zhou Yu can only attack the family, and he must complete the rectification within a year.

    "I will be the villain!" Sun Ce said murderously. This was the only thing he could do for Zhou Yu.

    Jingzhou will usher in another bloody storm.

    Cao Cao was speechless. After Cao Pi came back, he described Yangzhou's prosperity and war potential in a long speech.

    Cao Cao is still very unfamiliar with what "war potential" is, and now Liu Ke teaches him a lesson directly through actions.

    What is the concept of an army of 650,000? Throwing a whip to cut off the flow is nothing more than that.

    Therefore, Cao Cao was very sad and couldn't help but look to the west. Xiliang was the base he must seize. Otherwise, how could he resist?

    Fortunately for Liu Zhang, it only borders Jiaozhou, which has only 150,000 troops.  Liu Bei was completely frightened. Yangzhou had 500,000 troops stationed, and the Marquis of Dongyang bluntly stated that he wanted to destroy Xuzhou.

    Liu Bei was so frightened that he couldn't sleep well at all, and there was no one around him who could come up with any ideas.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)A lengthy description of Yangzhou's prosperity and war potential.
