After more than three years of study, more than 600 boys and more than 200 girls in Fuxing Academy reached 18 years old. Guan Yi is preparing to let them come out to do things from next year, that is, Jingyao's fifth year.

What do you do? Boys are officers, girls are usually teachers - educating soldiers' children. They are battlefield nurses during wartime.

These boys from the Fuxing Society have received inhumane training from the veterans of the Wunan Army and the Zhao family cavalry over the past three years, and most of them have developed complex skills. However, these children were trained according to the standards of middle and low-level officers, so it is also necessary to learn more. However, the soldiers they are about to lead are not needed to learn so much.

In Guan Yi's idea, everything was for the battle to destroy the country a year and a half later. Only when he won that battle had the opportunity to consider the future. And that battle was basically fought on the territory of Shu Han. So he had never thought about training a large number of established cavalry.

His 20,000 troops were basically infantry. However, in terms of type, they were divided into two parts.

The main components of the 10,000 soldiers in Zigong Pavilion are salt workers. Workers need to work three shifts on time and have a strong concept of time. At work, they need to work in accordance with certain standardized operating procedures, and their discipline is guaranteed. In life, they need to live with a large number of non-family members for a long time, and interpersonal relationships and mutual trust are also basically guaranteed. Therefore, such soldiers are born spear soldiers.

The spearmen are a super-era weapon that travelers who traveled to the age of cold weapons must come up with to fight the world. In Guan Yi's view, the requirement of the Tiger Infantry of Shu Han holding a spear less than two meters in one hand and a shield on the other hand is too high. In the Guan Yi version of the spearmen, each soldier only holds one spear, not a shield. But each spear is three meters long. Moreover, in addition to practicing spears and practicing shields and Pu Dao, Guan Yi's spearmen only need to train ranks and sprints.

"You all remember that during training, you must make soldiers react instinctively to the copper whistle and war drum. You must make soldiers move forward numb and mechanically according to the whistle and drum sound, retreat, get out the gun, and collect the gun... In short, soldiers in the long spear formation are machines and do not need any thoughts at all - thinking, command, etc. are your work at the center of the gun formation."

"Please, please rest assured, the mountain chief, we will live up to the mountain chief's entrustedness."

"Well, I will come to Jiangyang County again in three months. If I don't do well then, I will quit myself."

"No, if the mountain leader is not satisfied after March, I will come to see you!"

The main components of the 10,000 soldiers in Fuling County are the indigenous people of Wuling Mountain such as Bizka and Mengzihei and the Han people of Fuling County. Since these people have lived in harsh environments for a long time, almost everyone is born hunters. Moreover, due to the extremely insufficient supplies, almost everyone is a master of transformation tools and a master of good use of tools - they can use whatever they have, and no matter what they are, they can play with them.

Of course, such a source of troops cannot be used to train as a spearman. Guan Yi set them the goals: the Mandarin duck formation, the Five Elements formation, and the Three Talent formation.

"...The above are the basic composition and operation methods of the Mandarin Duck Formation, Five Element Formation, and Three Talent Formation. I believe you can see that in order to fully exert your strength, the soldiers who form these three formations need to absolutely trust and cooperate with each other. Therefore, after you go down to lead the team, you should try to let a family or a barbarian village in one formation... you understand, right?"

"No! I understand. The mountain leader."

"Well, do it well. After three months of training and competition, I will take the best ten sets of soldiers from the Mandarin Duck Formation to Jiangyang County and have a meeting with the salt foreman spear formation there. See who will lead more troops with those classmates in Jiangyang County."

"Hahahahahaha, don't worry, the victory must belong to our Fuling County!"

After seeing off his students, Guan Yi's face, who had just been happy, immediately became very anxious. He frowned and said to the horse corridor: "Change it, how are the weapons and armored battles done?"

Yes, the officers spent three and a half years training, and now they have a source of soldiers. As for money and food, there is no shortage of money and food. But the soldiers cannot fight with bare shirts, right? But Boss Liu only approved Guan Yi to build an army of 3,000 people. What does it mean that you suddenly ask the court for tens of thousands of pairs of armor?

According to Guan Yi's previous idea, there were many families in the Eastern Wu, and the central government's control was the weakest among the Three Kingdoms. Moreover, the Fuxing Society had an ally who was almost bound together, which could easily purchase a large number of weapons and armor from the Eastern Wu. As a result, after the actual negotiation, it was discovered that it was not the case.

Unlike Shu Han's specialty, Shu Jin, the Dongwu's fist products cover a wide range of products: in terms of agriculture, Dongwu is a major exporter of grain and seafood. In terms of handicrafts, celadon production is far ahead of the Han and Wei countries, and the low-end clothing market is basically occupied by the Gebu and Yuebu of Dongwu. In addition, the iron and copper smelting industries of Dongwu are also very developed, and there is no shortage of weapons and other weapons. Therefore, after Fuxing Society was about to start training its own private soldiers, they found the Bu family to buy weapons and armor. The Bu Association was very happy to sell and half-sold a large number of weapons to Fuxing Society.

But I am sorry for the armor: It is true that there are many families in the Eastern Wu, but because of the many families, each family has only purchased supporting armor for its elite private soldiers. There is no more set! If you want more armor, you can do it now!

I want more than 20,000 pairs of armor. It will be cold when you make the daylily.

As a time traveler, Guan Yi was a loyal admirer of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and his pursuit of "strong armor and powerful soldiers" was endless. Therefore, after the Bu family could not provide spot goods, he immediately instructed Ma Guo to contact Cao Wei.

"I have contacted the pseudo-Wei through the Bu family. The chief generals of the Jingzhou military in the pseudo-Wei sternly rejected our temptation!"

This is common sense. Which border general dares to sell the armored battles in his treasury to the enemy country in such a large quantity.

"But in the past two days, people from the pseudo-Wei Yangzhou have come to contact us on their own initiative..."

"Hmm? Who is it?"

"The person who came here said it was very obscure, but it should be the general of the pseudo-Wei Zhengdong and the governor of the military Shi Bao Shi Zhongrong of Yangzhou. The subordinates were a little confused. I wonder if it was a scam... Hey, why did the prefect laugh?"

"Hahahahaha~~~Change it. If someone contacted us on his own initiative, I would be afraid of being deceived. But if it was Shi Zhongrong, it would be fine."

As a founding hero of the Western Jin Dynasty, Shi Bao appeared in the late Three Kingdoms, so his reputation was not obvious. But everyone must be familiar with his youngest son: Mr. Shi Chong, the most tyrant in ancient China!

Shi Bao and Deng Ai, the current general of the Zhenxi of Cao Wei, both came from a humble background. In 218 AD, Emperor Xian of Han, Guo Xuanxin, had to return to Yecheng to work after finishing his business in Nanpi County. He asked the officials in charge of agriculture in Nanpi County to borrow someone to drive. The director of the Agriculture Department of Nanpi County sent Shi Bao and Deng Ai as drivers.

On the way, through conversation, Guo Xuanxin praised Shi and Deng's talents very much. He patted his chest and promised the two young people that they would recommend them to the court. Then the two stupid young people waited in Yecheng for a long time - they lost their jobs.

After that, Shi Bao had to become a blacksmith and make a living by making a living. During this period, he was praised by officials of different levels many times, expressing his recommendation to the court... But these are all empty promises. Mr. Shi Bao had been wasting nearly 20 years among the people. In the eyes of officials from aristocratic families in the court, it is true that Shi Bao is talented, but his background is too low. How can such a person be truly promoted? Praise and praise you for a few words is already a great kindness. Don’t think about other things, just take a shower and go to bed early.

The one who truly turned this appreciation into practical actions was Sima Yi, the Grand Marshal of Cao Wei at that time. Not only did he promote Shi Bao, but many military generals in the late Cao Wei period, such as Deng Ai, Wang Ji, and Chen Qian... were all promoted under Sima Yi's hands and gradually shone with glory.

Specifically for Mr. Shi Bao, this person has extremely high talent. Especially in terms of military talent, it is not inferior to Deng Ai. However, compared with Deng Ai who is overly keen on pursuing official positions, power, and does not value money particularly, Mr. Shi Bao's love for beauty and money has reached an unsuppressible level.

Perhaps because his life was too difficult in his early years, Mr. Shi Bao always lacked a sense of security in the quality of life. Therefore, this man's greed for fame was famous throughout the Cao Wei and even later in the Western Jin Dynasty. However, he did know how to do things and could do things. During his guard at Yangzhou, the Eastern Wu never made any progress. Therefore, the Sima family rulers turned a blind eye to his corruption. If it weren't for Mr. Shi Bao's shameless accumulation, how could Mr. Shi Chong, who came later, have the capital to be the most tyrant in ancient China?

So when Guan Yi heard that the head of Yangzhou was Shi Bao, he immediately knew where his soldiers' armor was coming from.

"Change it! You immediately find a way to go to Yangzhou. Shi Zhongrong is so fond of money that he loves money. No matter how much this guy wants, as long as he dares to sell it, we will buy it! Alas! When I think of the future when facing the pseudo-Wei army, our soldiers are all Yishui'er's pseudo-Wei armor... The picture is so beautiful!"
