The one hundred cavalrymen who followed Bai Xiaowen and his party to Jizhou belonged to the Youzhou army and Yuan Shao's tribe.
Bai Xiaowen could not trust Qiao Rui to use these people because they were all Yuan Shao's subordinates. The extremely confidential work of transmitting intelligence could not be left to them, so Bai Xiaowen took them back to Youzhou as they were.
There is no problem that the information on the Guandu front line and Yecheng in Jizhou is delivered by Tian Yu's soldiers.
The intelligence from Yecheng in Jizhou to Youzhou was transported through the secret channels of the Zhen family, keeping it as secret as possible.
Qiao Rui is hiding in the Zhen family, and Bai Xiaowen also needs to rely on her wisdom and decision-making ability to take charge of the important central intelligence station in Yecheng.
After arranging all this, Bai Xiaowen went to see Zhen Mi and kept his roommate Xiaohong.
Zhen Mi did not ask Bai Xiaowen how the big event went last night. She just held Bai Xiaowen's hand and said, "I am in Yecheng. I wish you my husband to rise to Youzhou and build great achievements."
Bai Xiaowen wanted to take Zhen Mi away, but she stayed in the Yuan Mansion in Yecheng to take care of Mrs. Liu. This is a commendable filial piety, and Bai Xiaowen couldn't force it. He doesn't have the willpower yet!
Bai Xiaowen could only hold Zhen Mi's hand and said: "My dear wife, wait patiently. It can be as short as half a month or as long as a month. Your husband will be able to make great achievements and then he will come to pick you up and reunite with you."
…
With fifty yi of gold, Bai Xiaowen and Cecilia returned first.
Although the gold is heavy, it will not occupy the horse's load when placed in Bai Xiaowen's storage space. Of course, cloth and military rations cannot be transported in the storage space.
Cecilia summoned the divine horse Bai Yujing, and the two rode together and hurried back to Youzhou. The hundred-man cavalry could not keep up with Bai Yujing's speed, so they could only move slowly behind.
Bai Yujing's speed was really impressive. As he galloped, the trees on both sides turned into reflections and swept backwards quickly.
This speed is probably more than 150 kilometers per hour! This is Bai Yujing's normal running speed, and it will only be faster if he sprints.
Don't compare the speed of modern expressway cars. What does the road under Bai Yujing's feet look like? Not to mention the unevenness, there is ice and snow all year round after entering Youzhou. The speed Bai Yujing can run is really amazing, and
There are also very few bumps.
It only took most of a day for the two of them to return to Beiping City in Youzhou.
As soon as he arrived in Peiping, Bai Xiaowen summoned all the civil servants and generals from Youzhou.
This was not the time to begrudge psychic points, Bai Xiaowen lost insights one by one.
To gain insight into these people is not to consider what it would be like to be enemies with them, but to understand a person's basic abilities so as not to miss out on talented people.
Bai Xiaowen even flirted a lot. If there was such a great talent who was frustrated and frustrated, and he had a keen eye for talent and promoted him, wouldn't he be able to get a powerful younger brother immediately?
However, the results after the insight were not satisfactory.
There are five civil servants and generals in Youzhou. Among them, Liu He is the leader, Zhao Rong, the internal historian, is a civil servant with special talents, Jiao Chu, Zhang Nan, and Yan Rou are military generals. The rest are all mediocre people.
Hanging gear.
But among the five leaders, Zhao Rong, Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan are all subordinates of Yuan Shao, who were sent to help Bai Xiaowen manage the military affairs of Youzhou. They will only obey Yuan Shao's orders. If Bai Xiaowen wants to use the money and food from the treasury, or use a large number of troops,
These three people must see Yuan Shao's order before they are willing to act.
Only Liu He and Yan Rou were former subordinates of Liu Yu, the former governor of Youzhou, and were not counted as Yuan Shao's confidants.
However, these two people have nothing to do with "Yuan Xi", and they are vaguely wary. Unlike Tian Feng and Zhen Yan, it is not easy to win over these two people.
Bai Xiaowen asked everyone to report the situation, and he also had a basic understanding of Youzhou's military and political affairs.
At present, most of Youzhou's troops and horses have been transferred away. The two generals Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan still have 20,000 people, and Yan Rou has 5,000 people. With more than 20,000 troops, it is a bit excessive to say that they are old, weak, sick and disabled, but they are absolutely
Those who cannot be called truly elite soldiers are basically on the Guandu front line.
Most of this season's money and food were transported to the Jizhou base camp, and what remained in Youzhou's treasury was only enough to meet the needs of the state's normal operations.
"You still have to rely on yourself."
Bai Xiaowen sighed in his heart. After the short meeting, he left the house without stopping and took Cecilia to inspect various military facilities in Beiping City.
What Bai Xiaowen focused on was the Beiping City Armory.
"How do the weapons here compare to the Kane plane?" Bai Xiaowen asked Cecilia in the team channel.
"The method of forging steel is a bit old, but the effect is unexpectedly good," Cecilia said after watching it for a while. "The armor made by this 'hundred steel forging' is very strong and light in weight. Iron
Although the fetal bow is a bit heavier, with the quality of the soldiers here, there should be no need to worry about equipment issues, and the attack power is stronger than the compound bow."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "The weapons in the spiritual world are not stronger the closer they are to modern technology, but are related to the concentration of psychic particles. The weapons in the Three Kingdoms plane are definitely stronger than those in the Kane plane. However, this
All kinds of steel are relatively precious, and are generally used to cast swords and swords, and cannot be equipped on a large scale. The armor currently worn by elite cavalry is all made of this kind of 'thirty tempered' steel."
Cecilia looked at the sample of "Thirty Years of Steelmaking", knocked and listened to it, and said: "Thirty Years of Steelmaking is not bad. If it is used to build hussars, it is barely enough."
"What about this kind of 'Fifty Steelmaking'?" Another piece of steel armor was handed over. This kind of steel is used to make the captain's and general's armor.
"Very good. Although it is not as good as Baidu Steel, it is worse than the light steel of Kane's plane. It is more than enough for making hussars." Cecilia gave an affirmative answer.
The two then went to inspect the stables.
Youzhou is worthy of being the birthplace of fine horses. The war horses are tall and strong, much better than the horses in the south. Cecilia was very satisfied at first sight.
"Dior, with special steel, iron-tied bows and excellent horses, the resources for building hussars should be enough. Now I need soldiers, preferably veterans who have been on the battlefield. In this case, I can make them within a week.
Train it out.”
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "This is an easy matter. As the governor of Youzhou, I seem to have a false reputation, but I can still use it to some extent."
Bai Xiaowen immediately summoned Yan Rou and ordered him to bring his five thousand men to the school grounds for review.
Yan Rou was not Yuan Shao's confidant, so she naturally did not dare to question him.
After 5,000 people lined up, Bai Xiaowen took Cecilia to select soldiers. Cecilia was quite good at selecting soldiers. She could always select better soldiers from the uneven soldiers. Bai Xiaowen fired a few shots.
