Liu Mang rushed towards the conference hall. He told Xu Shu and others after the dinner last year that he needed to know the recent situation in Yangzhou. He had been away from Yangzhou for a long time. Although Xu Shu and others helped him deal with it, Liu Mang could not always be the boss.

"Yuan Zhi is early!" Liu Mang walked into the conference hall and saw that Xu Shu and others had already arrived.

When Xu Shu and others heard Liu Mang's voice, they turned around and called "Master Dawn", but the word "Master Dawn" came out, and the word "Master Dawn" was almost put back, so people's faces were full of a look that they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

"Huh?" Liu Mang felt very strange as they looked at them laughing.

Xu Shu walked up and said to Liu Mang, "My lord worked hard yesterday, which made him feel a little depressed. Do you need to take a rest for a while?"

Overworked? Liu Mang was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Liu Mang didn't understand, Xu Shu clapped his hands and asked his maid to bring a plate of washing water. Liu Mang's face was approaching and then he realized that this face was really colorful and red, but it was still a place where Liu Mang could not take care of. The vermilion lips were shining brightly on it. Liu Mang escaped from the gentle countryside, so he didn't care about these.

"Haha!" Liu Mang had to smile awkwardly, wash up with the water in the basin, and then sat on the main seat. Looking at the group of civil and military men who were feeling uncomfortable below, they could only say unhappy, "If you want to laugh, laugh, don't suffocate yourself!"

"Hahahahaha!" Of course, this was Liu Mang's angry words, but he didn't expect that he would really laugh. This smile was heartless and naturally the one who was the most scheming. Liu Mang turned his head and saw that Zhou Cang was grinning and laughing.

"Stop laughing at Zhou Cang!" Guan Hai on the side hurriedly stopped Zhou Cang, but this guy was not grateful. "Brother Guan, why don't you let me laugh? Let me laugh first. Haha, I'm happy!"

"Zhou Cang, you have suffered these days. You see, you have gained weight. I decided to let you recover. So from today on, I will give me a meal of porridge! Drink it for three days!" Liu Mang said to Zhou Cang with a smile.

"Ahhh! Lord, I, I was wrong, I was wrong!" Zhou Cang then realized that he had been in trouble. For Zhou Cang, a foodie, restricting him from eating was the same as torture.

It would be too late to know that it was wrong. "Say one more word for one more day!" Liu Mang's words made Zhou Cang shut up and retreat to the side, but the resentful eyes looked at Guan Hai next to him, as if he was blaming Guan Hai why you didn't pull me.

Guan Hai could only wave his hand, what's wrong with him! He's like that. You Zhou Cang are still laughing happily.

"Yuanzhi, tell me, how much family we have in Yangzhou now!" Liu Mang sat in the main seat and asked Xu Shu below. When Liu Mang was away, Xu Shu was the housekeeper of Yangzhou.

"Report to the lord, first, we have heavy armored cavalry, Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, and light cavalry, white horses, and three light cavalry, totaling 13,000 people, heavy armored infantry, trapped battle, and three city management black chess battalions. A total of 15,000 people, light elite, Taishan Camp. Guangling Army, Yiyang Wushou, and Lidun Camp four battalions, totaling 30,000 people." Lidun Camp was the army in Hao Shao's hands, which was originally reorganized, which should have been 10,000 soldiers. This battle of the Yangtze River Water Village was more than 3,000, but Liu Mang would soon replenish him, so Xu Shu still counted 10,000 people, and Guangling Army also had 10,000 people, because the commander of the Guangling Army was Chen Deng. Liu Mang Bar Chen Deng arranged in Guangling, so Chen Deng recruited soldiers better in the local area. What he needed to take care of was the Jianghuai generation in Xuzhou.

This candidate must be cautious. First, we must firmly take the Jianghuai generation into our hands. This will ensure the entrance of the Yangzhou army, so that Yangzhou can continuously trade with Gongsun Du from Liaodong.

Secondly, we cannot offend Cao's army too much. If Cao's army is really annoyed, it will be a big battle.

What Xu Shu is talking about now is the elite troops of the Yangzhou Army, with a total of 58,000 people. If these troops are pulled out, they are all elite troops among the elite.

"There are 50,000 regular troops of the Yangzhou New Army and 100,000 reserve troops!" The Yangzhou New Army is the soldiers trained by Huang Zhong. There were originally 300,000 young and strong men for training, but in the end, only 150,000 were really formed. Five thousand of these 150,000 are now able to go to the battlefield, and there are still 100,000 to be investigated!

Liu Mang suddenly found that his Yangzhou could now provide 100,000 troops, and these 100,000 troops were still army troops. When they and Lu Bu fled from Xuzhou to Shouchun, there were only a few thousand people in the entire army. Most of these thousands were injured. Either the surrendered army in Chen Deng's hands, they could now provide a vassal of a 100,000 army.

"Under the command of General Gan, the East China Sea Navy has more than 7,000 soldiers, and the Yangtze River Navy has 40,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of General Ren!"

"Forty thousand soldiers?" Liu Mang was stunned for a moment. When did his Yangtze River Navy actually reach this level? Are they all recruits? If that were the case, the Yangtze River Navy would have to be well trained. The navy is different from the army. The navy must first learn water, and the second was to understand the kung fu on the ship. If you get on the warship, you will still fight, or if you don't understand the role of the tide on the hull, you may be exhausted by a marching on the water. What else do you have to fight?

"It's not the new army, it's all good soldiers!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang, saying that good soldiers are not elite soldiers, it's the Yangtze River Navy that hasn't really coordinated them yet. "These are all Kong Ming's credit!"

Liu Mang originally thought that Zhuge Kongming would burn the Jiangdong and Jingzhou coalition forces at most, but he didn't expect that he would bring his family to him. He was really a monster in the Three Kingdoms.

"Kong Ming should be rewarded!" Liu Mang nodded. Originally, Zhuge Liang wanted to use it, but he didn't know that this monster made him like Yangzhou's city.

"Where are those second-line garrison troops!" Liu Mang continued to ask.

"This, this" Xu Shu was suddenly stopped by Liu Mang. The second-line garrison troops were no longer under Xu Shu's control, because Xu Shu was busy with too many things. Xu Shu was working hard throughout Yangzhou. Xu Shu was good at being a big man, but he didn't care about some aspects. The military and political affairs were all in Xu Shu's hands, so how could he be so meticulous?

The second-line garrison troops were selected by the local prefects.

"Shu failed to complete the lord's entrust, so he asked the lord to punish him!" Xu Shu knew his dereliction of duty and half-kneeled down and said to Liu Mang.

"The lord's military advisor has limited energy. The military advisor is responsible for everything in Yangzhou. The negligence is not intentional. I hope the lord will forgive the military advisor!" Huang Zhong, the leader of the military advisor, stood up and pleaded with Liu Mang.

As soon as Huang Zhong knelt down, the military generals followed behind him. Not only were the military generals and the civil officials kneeled down. Liu Mang shook his head with a wry smile. The military general spoke for the civil officials, and the civil officials helped the military generals plead for mercy. If they were not allowed to report to other masters, they would be suspicious. If the subordinates were a solid person, he would still take this master seriously~! But Liu Mang knew that Huang Zhong was not a bad intention, and Xu Shu was also devoted to Yangzhou.

"Yuan Zhi, get up! I'm not going to punish you! But I want to remind you, I'm just negligent. One person's energy is always limited, so let Yuan Zhi be so hard!" Liu Mang mentioned this garrison force because in Xinye, Liu Mang saw what the emperor was called the high and far away, and what I meant that I was the local emperor. If Guo Yi hadn't been to Liu Mang, how could he know that he had policies and countermeasures from Yangzhou and was indifferent to the governance of Yangzhou.

In Xinye, there is one Guo Yi, but there is no second and third Guo Yi in other cities? In the final analysis, the supervision and coordination are not in place. If this continues, although Liu Mang can kill one Guo Yi, there are more Guo Yi behind him.

This time, Liu Mang became the first to kill Guo Yi. If he met other first to be used by ambitious people, it would be over once a civil war like Xinye formed.

So the most urgent task now is to plan this second-line garrison force, so that they can know that the second-line garrison force also needs to be coordinated, they are also on the list, enjoy the treatment of the army, and do not compete for profit with the people. (To be continued)
