Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Just like how Lu Bu now pacified Yizhou, Yizhou was considered rebellious in the eyes of the Xudu court. That was because Lu Bu was the victor.

Lu Bu also attached great importance to the war that he was likely to face next. Soon after returning to Chang'an, he ordered various places to start recruiting troops. This recruitment will be the last large-scale recruitment before the decisive battle. When the war is actually going on,

, recruiting soldiers from the young and strong shows how bad the situation on the battlefield has become.

Even if young men are full of enthusiasm, their role after entering the army is definitely not as good as that of elite soldiers. On the battlefield, soldiers who have been trained and tested on the battlefield are the most important combat effectiveness.

In this regard, Chang'an's army is very strong, but Cao Cao's soldiers are not weak either. It is more difficult to win against Cao Cao on the battlefield than against Liu Bei. Who is Cao Cao, and his methods are more powerful than Liu Bei's?

Otherwise, Liu Bei would not just stick to the land of Yizhou. When he faced Cao Jun, he failed one after another.

There will be 50,000 standing troops near Chang'an. These troops can be mobilized at any time to protect the safety of Chang'an. Together with the soldiers at the surrounding checkpoints, the number of troops in Chang'an alone will exceed 60,000. At the beginning of the troubled times

At that time, it was an invincible force, but now the princes attach great importance to military strength, which has led to great development of the army.

People are in dire straits during war, but war can bring the monarchs what they need. Only after more wars can the world be peaceful.

Yizhou will have 30,000 soldiers and horses, plus 20,000 soldiers and horses from the southern counties, reaching 50,000 troops. Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, Youzhou, and Liangzhou will each recruit 30,000 soldiers. Grassland

The total number of soldiers on board reached 10,000.

The total number of the troops under Lu Bu's command reached 260,000, and this was a force that could be mobilized at any time. The entire north was pacified by Lu Bu, which meant that there would not be too many wars under Lu Bu's rule.

This ensures the stability of the territory to a greater extent.

Among them, the cavalry includes Lieyang Bow Cavalry, Flying Cavalry, Wolf Cavalry, a thousand cavalry of personal guards, a thousand white horse rebels, and 6,000 prairie cavalry. The number of cavalry that can be mobilized alone reaches 17,000.

Not counting the cavalry in each tribe, in terms of the number of cavalry, Lu Bu's army absolutely crushed the princes.

What a tyrannical force the cavalry has on the battlefield. Even if the princes increase the strength of their armies, if there are no powerful cavalry in the army, they will suffer greater challenges on the battlefield. Although the princes' armies have bed crossbows and other capable cavalry, they can restrain the cavalry.

With the existence of the cavalry, the cavalry can defeat the crossbow army by relying on its mobility. On the wild battlefield, the role of the cavalry is far from being replaced by the elite infantry.

In terms of infantry, Lu Bu has the trapping camp, Euphorbia soldiers, Xiandenshi soldiers, Modao army. These are elite infantry that have been tested on the battlefield. They can fight against cavalry on the battlefield. Between Cao Jun and Jiangdong army,

Although there are heavy infantry in the army, they lack experience in fighting cavalry. The Modao army formed by the princes cannot form an effective deterrent without combat experience.

Moreover, Lu Bu has three thousand barbarian vine-armed soldiers under his command. In the future, Meng Huo's successful formation of elephant soldiers will also become a powerful force on the battlefield. If the elephant soldiers are used properly on the battlefield, they can play a huge role.

You can imagine how powerful these forces will be after they are integrated.

It was difficult to hide the number of troops from other princes, which also greatly stimulated Cao Cao. Various places under Cao Cao's rule were also recruiting soldiers and horses, and the number of troops under his command exceeded 200,000.

Elite soldiers can certainly play an important role on the battlefield, but if you have an advantage in the number of soldiers, there will be greater benefits.

After Man Chong received Lu Bu's promise, he did not leave. When Lu Bu and Liu Bei were fighting, something that could see far away appeared in the Chang'an army, called the Fairy Mirror. For this thing, Cao Cao naturally

I want to get it. If there are a large number of fairy mirrors in Cao's army, the scouts in the army can play a huge role in gathering intelligence, attacking the city, and the decisive battle between the two sides.

Cao Cao is also determined to get the Immortal Mirror. Cheng Yu is confident to take away the Immortal Mirror from the Chang'an army, but the cost of taking away the Immortal Mirror must be huge. It is very difficult to cultivate the Immortal Mirror among the enemy.

It is not an ordinary weapon. If it is lost, it will not be blamed too much. Each fairy mirror is extremely precious and can only be owned by the generals of various ministries, and they are the generals who accompanied Lu Bu to fight in Yizhou.

In the Qingzhou Army, only Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu and Ji Ling have the Immortal Mirror. Even if the other generals are envious of it, it is difficult to get it.

Lu Bu would have a firm control over the Immortal Mirror and could not let it leak out. On the battlefield in Yizhou, the existence of the Immortal Mirror allowed the Chang'an Army to play a greater role in the battle against the Yizhou Army.

Man Chong came to the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce on the second day. Mi Zhu, as the person in charge of the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce, has great power in selling items. If the fairy mirror can be purchased through Mi Zhu, it will be extremely important for Man Chong.

But Man Chong understood the difficulty. He just informed Lu Bu through Mi Zhu to see what conditions Lu Bu would have in this regard. Cao Cao specifically warned about this before leaving.

Not only is Mi Zhu busy, but the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce is also extremely busy. The palace is being built in the inner city, which requires a lot of supplies, and most of these supplies are operated through the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce.

The need for materials to build the palace also made the merchants under Lu Bu's rule see business opportunities. It was definitely not enough to just rely on local governments to transport materials to Chang'an. At this time, the power of merchants was reflected. Driven by interests, there will naturally be merchants.

Willing to do so.

When he learned that Man Chong was coming, Mi Zhu was slightly startled and hurried to greet him. No matter how Lu Bu treated the imperial envoy, the imperial court still had a certain prestige in the world. Without Lu Bu's clear stance, it was still better to show enough respect.

Very necessary.

With Mi Zhu's shrewdness, he naturally did not want Xu Du's court to get a handle on this matter.

Manchong returned the greeting and said, "I came here to harass Lord Mi, but I hope Lord Mi will not blame you."

"The envoy is welcome, please!" Mi Zhu extended her hand and said.

Man Chong nodded without being polite and took the lead in entering the room. After arriving at the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce, Man Chong was deeply impressed. Through the hustle and bustle of the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce, one could see the prosperity of Chang'an and the number of businessmen coming and going.

It affects the prosperity under the rule to a great extent.
