In May, Cao Cao really retreated.
Boss Cao reluctantly retreated and threw out the classic password "chicken ribs", which also attracted Yang Xiu to understand him at the enterprise level, giving Boss Cao a perfect excuse to kill himself.
But there is also a positive side to this matter. At least the joke "tasteless" was included in the textbooks a thousand years later. Boss Cao used his failure in Hanzhong to make outstanding contributions to our country's education...
In addition, a group of ethnic minorities—the Di people—live in the Wudu area of Hanzhong.
Because of Ma Chao's reputation among the Qiang and Di people, Cao Cao was afraid that these Di people would be used by Liu Bei, so he became the director of the demolition office.
Before leaving, Ziwudu moved these tens of thousands of Di people to Tianshui and Fufeng.
Since then, he has moved away more than half of the people of Hanzhong in several batches...
Lao Liu gained land and lost people, and Hanzhong in history has always been short of people and food since then, laying hidden dangers for Jiang Wei's inability to defend Hanzhong a few years later.
Boss Cao, who had successfully disgusted Old Liu, did not know that what he, the director of the demolition office, had done had indirectly planted a greater curse for the children of the Han family in the land of China...
…
During this month, Liu Chan continued to train his soldiers, asked Uncle Zhuge for advice on how to change battle formations, and successively delivered and transported equipment from Wu Yi.
I also did a seemingly inconspicuous little thing.
He ordered his winery to only use direct cash when purchasing or shipping goods.
This move did not arouse the vigilance of the wealthy people in Yizhou, and they were even thankful that General Zuo's Mansion was willing to collect the Zhibai coins from their hands as processing fees, so they could just clear out the Zhibai coins in stock.
But what will happen once the Zhibai money in their hands is no longer enough to pay for the high grape processing fees and they have to use other materials or five baht money to reversely exchange Zhibai money? They have not thought about this yet... …
…
Chengdu.
There were lights and colorful decorations everywhere in the city, and the faces of passers-by were all beaming with joy.
Winning the war meant that taxes would also fall.
After material shortages gradually improve, prices will also drop, and people's lives will be better than before.
The son-in-law who accompanied the army is coming back, and the pressure of farming will also be alleviated.
The people were still happy, and there was a big banquet in General Zuo's mansion, with music and dancing.
While the whole city was rejoicing, Liu Chan only showed his face at the beginning of the banquet and then disappeared.
Mother's care and beauty's company make people feel more happy.
A real man cannot indulge in it all day long.
Before leaving this time, although her mother was still in tears and the beauties were still reluctant to leave, they did not dissuade Liu Chan too much.
Because at least in name, Liu Chan was not going to fight and kill this time.
He only said that he wanted to go to Jingzhou and Soochow with the caravan, and there were some things that needed to be handled personally.
After all, in the eyes of the mother and others, the second uncle in Jingzhou is in charge and is absolutely foolproof.
Soochow is our ally, so there will be no danger at all in this trip.
As for Guan Yinping, Liu Chan only said one word and asked the girl to stay in Chengdu obediently.
"Help me take care of my mother and the people in the shanty town."
In Miss Guan San's opinion, this was not only a great trust, but also a confirmation of their relationship, and she was overjoyed.
As for Zhang Xingcai...she has never questioned or dissuaded any of Liu Chan's decisions, and it was the same this time.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Liu Chan left the bustling city of Chengdu and came to the military camp in the suburbs dressed in smart clothes.
More than a month of hard training has brought about earth-shaking changes in the recruits.
First is the body.
In April and May, the weather in Bashu has gradually become hotter.
Although the climate across the country has begun to turn colder in this era, the sun above Chengdu is still fierce during this season.
After practicing under the sun for more than a month, the recruits were stripped of their skin in a physical sense... The sun was so intense that they were almost as dark as Uncle Zhang.
The rigorous training and sufficient intake of calories and protein in their daily diet also significantly increased the tendon meat on their bodies.
But he is not as big as a bodybuilder. After all, although Liu Chan's meals include meat, he is not yet able to provide it openly.
It is similar to the set meal of later generations, with enough corn, vegetables and meat, and occasionally some other non-staple food.
As a price for their physical strength, each person could only eat two kilograms of corn a day in the past, but now they can lose two kilograms in a big meal. They can be called ruthless rice-making machines.
Furthermore, it is the miraculous changes in the spirit and spirit of these people.
Although he still has a fierce look on his face, the ruthless look he had when he was a bandit has gradually faded away.
The changes in life and the respect of their families and neighbors gradually changed their understanding of the concept of "soldiers" from the past.
Liu Chan's way of getting along with the regular army is also quietly changing the thinking of this team.
The first is the generals at all levels.
Liu Chan set up one military marquis, five camp commanders, ten captains, and fifty captains in the regular army.
The corps commander below was canceled by Liu Chan because of the duplication of responsibilities and the large number of people, which affected the issuance of orders.
The ten-man team is the smallest unit in Liu Chan's army.
The recruits discovered that although these officers appointed by Liu Chan were extremely strict in training them, they would be like a cane if their movements were not standardized and they would never show mercy.
But during breaks outside of training, he was very friendly and even treated them as equals without putting on any airs.
This surprised the recruits, and Hu Li was even more puzzled.
This shouldn't be the case...
There were layers of exploitation when distributing money and food, and officers secretly extorted soldiers, using the name of entertainment as various gambling games to find a way for their subordinates to pay tribute.
Aren't these the traditional performing arts of the military these days?
In fact, the reason is very simple.
Liu Chan, the master in their hearts, was a heaven-like existence. In his free time, he treated ordinary soldiers of the regular army as equals, even as brothers.
You, a little military lord, even a tall one, dare to do something special?
No one has the guts.
That's what the saying goes.
Over time, everyone gradually felt that this was the correct way to get along with each other in such an isolated environment, similar to an information cocoon room.
The changes from the inside out gave these original bandits a completely new look.
Liu Chan nodded with satisfaction, now it's time to practice in actual combat...
Um?
"Hu Li."
"Yes!" Hu Li stepped out of the queue, standing like a spear in his hand, not squinting.
It's just that...the obvious bruises on his eyes ruined his image and made him look a little funny.
A specialty of the Bashu region - the iron-eating beast.
"What's wrong with your eyes?"
"Report to the Major General, he was beaten by the commander Qian Duo during the sparring!"
He was obviously beaten, but why was this kid Hu Li so arrogant?
Liu Chan looked at the regular military formation: "Money is plenty."
"have!"
After Qian Duo came out of the queue, Liu Chan was happy when he saw it, and he also understood why Hu Li was so arrogant.
This guy also had a light bruise on his cheek, which was obviously a slap in the face from Hu Li.
No wonder Qian Duo has such a bitter look on his face and so much hatred.
The regular army commander was slapped in the face by a recruit during a sparring session. Although Hu Li was obviously injured more seriously, it was still embarrassing.
Liu Chan called him because he wanted him to be gentler on the new recruits during sparring, but it seemed unnecessary.
"Return to the team."
"Yes!" The two of them entered the queue at the same time.
"You have been training in the camp for more than a month. As I said before, it's time to go out and practice." Liu Chan glanced at them, "Are you afraid of meeting a bloody man?"
"Not afraid."
Liu Chan became playful: "I can't hear it at all."
"Don't be afraid!" roared in unison, and several birds parked on the log wall were frightened and flew away.
"Okay, you're very energetic! Get ready to follow me out of the camp."
