Han Xin clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, the entire Yulin Army has assembled here."

"Your Majesty personally selected strong and talented people over the age of fourteen from among the many slave-born children as the main force of the upper army, a total of 1200 people, three stones of millet per month, and training once a day."

"Boys aged 12 to 14 formed the central army. They were given two stones of millet every month, trained every three days, and were also responsible for building camps."

"Those under the age of twelve are assigned to the lower army, receive one and a half stone of millet per month, train once every seven days, and also work on raising horses, poultry, and livestock."

"Only part of the upper army, or 1200 personnel, will be deployed for this demonstration exercise. The rest of the personnel will be put into training during the next training session."

This means that apart from the cavalry led by Chunsheng, the other members of the Yulin Army only have to train in formation and do miscellaneous tasks. What is even more surprising is that the pigs here are raised in the wild! Fusu nodded gently without saying much. He decided to go to observe a corner of the Yulin Army pig farm after the training to completely eliminate the worldly greed of the cute pigs.

The upper army Han Xin mentioned was most likely the 1200 cavalrymen led by Chunsheng, which was exactly the same number of troops under the command of a -man lord.

Despite this, when the actual training began, Chunsheng had his riders dismount and mount their horses after arriving at the training ground and began to form the team.

Li Cheng suddenly widened his eyes and asked Meng Ying softly, "What happened? Why did they have to take off their horses and fight on foot?"

Meng Ying just rolled her eyes in response: "It's amazing that these kids can learn to control war horses in such a short time. Don't expect them to master riding skills!"

At this time, the shogunate's staff began distributing weapons and flags to the participating soldiers.

After that, Li Cheng frowned again: "Why is this strange weapon prepared for the soldiers instead of a spear? Is it a spear? Why is it so long?"

This time, Han Xin answered. Looking at Fusu, he said, "This is a spear made by your majesty himself. It is two zhang (460 cm) long. The spear head is an iron head made by casting technology, and the spear body is made of green teak bark mixed with gelatin secreted by fish. It is wrapped with hemp rope and painted. Compared with the wooden handle halberd, it is longer and lighter. It is both hard and flexible and not easy to bend."

Very good, we already have the appearance of an elite army. If we continue to maintain this level of training intensity, in about three years, when these young people mature, they will be able to compete with the Jiuyuan Army!

Fusu stepped forward, patted Han Xin's shoulder gently, and praised: "Standing like a mountain, attacking like a burning fire, very good! Share the spoils of yesterday's hunting with all the soldiers!"

Although there was not much left of the hare, deer and other meat he had harvested yesterday, if he used them to make soup, he could at least provide each of the 1200 soldiers with a cup of hot soup. If that was not enough, he could add more water.

Han Xin was overwhelmed with emotion and stepped forward to return the greeting respectfully. "On behalf of all the soldiers, I would like to thank Your Majesty for his grace!"

Fusu helped Han Xin up, held his hand and said, "Take me to inspect the camp."

This hand-holding technique is a unique skill passed down from generation to generation by the founding ancestors of the Qin Dynasty.

There are people like Gongsun Zao who is sarcastic, Zhang Yi who is good at debating with many people, Mengchangjun who is full of wisdom, and Fan Ju who is ingenious... although their endings are not good.

Soon, Fusu saw a small hut made of wooden fences, in which lived about a thousand big, muscular pigs.

Some of them were obviously breeding pigs, and their reproductive parts were so huge that everyone present felt embarrassed.

The source in the pigpen, we must find a way to cut this part off! Recalling the reason why foreign meat is not fresh on the Internet - it is the lack of this key cut!

Although it is not yet time to perform amputation on these well-developed boars, in order to preserve the flavor of their meat, they must be killed and cooked as soon as possible before they go bad.

Fusu held Han Xin's hand and asked, "Is there anyone in the Yulin Army who knows how to ride horses?"

I believe that the Yulin Army must have at least two hundred war horses available, including female and male stallions, and there must be at least one master who is proficient in this technology.

In short, the official treatment of horses and pigs is basically the same method.

The next moment, soldiers with tool boxes ran over. After listening to Fusu's request, although they were confused, they still vowed not to hurt the poor pigs to death.

The unbearable future was not his focus, and he left the pigsty and inspected the composting work of the Yulin Army. He found that the soldiers followed his arrangement and collected feces and urine in areas far away from water sources. He once again praised Han Xin and Liu Chunsheng for their execution.

Next, he proposed to Han Xin and others to hold a number of activities such as sanitation competitions (cleaning) and tug-of-war (show of strength), and reward the winning troops with extra meals and special flags as honors.

If this plan receives a good response, he intends to implement these measures throughout the army. Spiritual civilization construction is as important as physical health!

PS: I'm begging for your votes and support.

A middle-aged man dressed as a county official was wandering in the yamen. On the ground, an anxious-looking old man and another middle-aged man dressed as an official were sitting on their knees.

"Mr. Zhang, how should we deal with this dilemma now?" The old man looked up at the county magistrate and said, "I have never heard of the principle of collective responsibility in Qin law that can implicate my nephew's family!"

Seeing this, the county magistrate sighed and said, "Now that things have come to this, Brother Lu, please return home as soon as possible, pack your luggage and leave Pei County quickly!"

He turned to the middle-aged man dressed as a minor official and said, "Please help me find a few spacious carriages from the government office."

At this moment, heavy footsteps were heard outside, and the door of the room was kicked open.

Dozens of soldiers holding long spears were standing at the door. Li Ping, the upper inspector of Si Shui, was holding a letter written on plain silk, and was followed by an army leader named Gan and a team of subordinates of the county governor.

Li Ping was about to express his feelings to Zhang She, the detained magistrate of Pei County, but he accidentally caught a glimpse of the old man covering his face with his hands, with a false smile on his lips. He said, "Oh! Old man, I didn't expect that we would meet again!"

The leader of the army named Gan took a step forward and asked Li Ping, "Is that the person your majesty wants to capture?"

Li Ping bowed deeply and replied, explaining: "This person is indeed the representative of my nephew's family."

Then, Gan Fu raised his wrist, and more than a dozen soldiers in armor rushed in from behind and surrounded the people in the room.

"Take them all down!" The order was issued quickly!

"receive!"

Two soldiers stepped forward and arrested the cowering and trembling Lu Taigong.

"Wait a minute!" The man called Xiao Li stood up to stop him, "Who are you?"

"I am Xiao He, a minor official in Pei County!" the middle-aged man responded righteously.

"General, why did you arrest people without knowing the reason? It seems that you don't care about the Qin system!"

Then he asked, "You are the Xiao He, right?"

Could this person be deaf... Xiao He frowned and said, "That's right!"

After recalling for a while, the general raised another question: "Where are General Cao, General Zhou, and General Xiahou Ying now?"

How could an imperial envoy know such a name? At this time, Xiao He, a local official, was full of confusion and distress.

On the side, the county magistrate Zhang She replied: "According to the results of the general's inquiry, they are subordinates of this county..."

At this time, the county magistrate interrupted and said, "In this case, please send your subordinates to find these people quickly. His Majesty has issued an order to recruit all these candidates, including me, to join the Hongwen Pavilion to wait for positions, with an annual salary of 300 stones!"

At this, Xiao He, a minor official in Pei County, was shocked. How could a local official be invited to receive the emperor's direct order and have His Majesty personally issue an edict?

Before that, he still had to make a logical defense to Lu Taigong: "The general has not yet answered the doubt I raised - what fault did the Lu family commit?"

However, Gan Fu did not give any answers to these questions. His mission was to safely transport the people named in these names to the capital city of Xianyang. The reasons for the arrests were not his main concern.

So Madam Yan turned around and walked out of the inner room, called a few county officials, and asked them to command the soldiers and guards in the county to look for Cao Shen and his men. She then led the others to arrest the family members of the pavilion chief named Liu.

"You!" Xiao He was very angry and was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Li Ping.

Li Ping said, "The best governance is for couples and friends not to cover up each other's evil deeds, rather than disregarding family affection. On the contrary, such behavior will not damage family relationships. For ordinary people, they should not cover up other people's crimes."

"According to the neighbors' report, Mrs. Liu's daughter used to give away clothes and food in the Mangdang area. The amount of the gifts was large, and they all came from the Liu family. How could her son, Mrs. Liu, not know about it?"

The voice of a cute girl, "Are you leaving just like that? Don't you even give me a like? What if I can't find you next time?"

I didn't expect that this rough guy had read Shang Yang's books... When he heard this, Xiao He opened his mouth, but finally chose to remain silent and leave.

Li Ping quoted Shang Yang's words, saying that if Xiao He made any further objections to the Liu family's actions, he might immediately accuse Xiao He of being in the same camp as himself.

In addition, Xiao He felt that he had treated Liu Ji's family with utmost kindness, especially the cost of rescuing Liu Ji's wife, Lu Zhi, from prison, which amounted to several hundred silver coins.

Just when Xiao He was going home and preparing to pack up under the "protection" of two soldiers and a dozen county guards.

Madam Yan led a team of nearly a hundred horsemen and, under the guidance of a minor official, surrounded the home of the Liu family's headman. When he kicked the door open, he found the room silent, with only the fire in the stove still extinguished, obviously someone had just left.

But before that, someone had closed the main passage of the neighborhood in advance, which meant that the woman with two children could not escape!

Therefore, she must be hiding in a nearby home.
