Double penetration: This Three Kingdoms has dragon energy

Chapter 71: Suppressing Chenliu and Expanding Strength

Zhang Miao said, "This was left behind by bandits who attacked Chenliu City. Chenliu City was already on the verge of collapse under the attack of the bandits, but it was Envoy Ji who intervened and saved the city!"

"But where did this thief come from?" Ji Qiu continued to ask.

Zhang Miao immediately said, "It's the aristocratic families in the city. They are plotting rebellion and colluding with the bandits outside the city. They are trying to attack from both inside and outside and seize Chenliu City!
Fortunately, Envoy Ji saw through their conspiracy and prevented them from succeeding!
Afterwards, they stubbornly refused to change their ways and resisted the might of Heaven, ultimately ending up dead and their entire clan wiped out!"

"Well, that's right, Governor Zhang is indeed a mature and prudent man.

In this case, let’s leave this matter to Prefect Zhang.

"With the ability of Zhang Taishou, he will definitely be able to handle this matter properly!" Ji Qiu clapped his hands in praise.

Zhang Miao knew that this was a token of his loyalty that he had to submit. Only by doing this could he survive.

He quickly said, "I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."

"There is one more thing, I hope the prefect can cooperate." Ji Qiu continued.

Zhang Miao quickly said, "Please give your instructions, sir."

"Next, our army will rest in Chenliu City for a period of time. During this period, we will recruit soldiers and civilians here. I hope the prefect will lead the officials of Chenliu County to cooperate!" Ji Qiu said lightly.

In fact, he had not originally planned to stay in Chenliu City for too long.

He just thought about recruiting Dian Wei and left.

But now that we have conquered Chenliu City, it would be a pity to leave so easily.
Anyway, according to Guo Jia's plan, he needed to slow down his march and arrive at Taishan County two months later.

Then I might as well use this time to rest up in Chenliu City.

Chenliu City is a big city in the Central Plains.

Not only do they have abundant supplies and wealth, but they are also extremely martial and have a good source of soldiers.

Although he could not make his fortune in Chenliu County like Cao Cao, it did not prevent him from making a fortune here.

Recruit soldiers here on a large scale to strengthen the army and improve combat effectiveness!
To achieve this, the cooperation of local officials is naturally needed.

Zhang Miao's face was full of bitterness. If possible, he certainly didn't want Ji Qiu to stay in Chenliu City.

He hoped that Ji Qiu could leave as soon as possible.

But this matter is not determined by his will.

Facing the extremely powerful Ji Qiu, the only thing he could do was to endure it silently, so that he could survive.

So he could only force a smile and say, "Don't worry, Your Excellency. Chenliu City is currently short of troops. It is a great blessing to have you stationed in Chenliu. I will cooperate with your actions and meet all your requirements!"

"That's great!" Ji Qiu chuckled.

Afterwards, Ji Qiu's army officially began to garrison Chenliu City.

In Chenliu City, a series of chaotic changes also occurred.

First, Ji Qiu counted the harvest and took all the wealth in the granary, government treasury, and prefectural office in Chenliu City for himself, obtaining a total of 30 million modern funds.

Secondly, he obtained the half-used protective dragon talisman from Zhang Miao, as well as their family's acquired secret technique, Dragon Tooth.

It was the same secret technique that Zhang Tao used during the previous battle outside the city.

To be fair, this secret technique is quite powerful.

The secret military formation technique is not inferior to that of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

If he hadn't happened to encounter the halberd warriors who were the natural enemy of the cavalry, he would have been able to shine on the battlefield.

Third, Ji Qiu expanded the organization and the army.

The Xianzhen Camp was newly established, with Gao Shun as its commander. Dian Wei succeeded Gao Shun as commander of the Qinwei Camp.

Subsequently, soldiers were recruited and the Weiwu Camp and the Xianzhen Camp were expanded to 3,000 people.

The Royal Guard Battalion and the Cavalry Battalion were expanded to 2,000 people.

And the previous conscription regulations in Luoyang City were continued, and all soldiers' families were assigned to the logistics camp!
This is not difficult to do. Even in the wealthy city of Chenliu, the majority of people are still the lower class who cannot afford to eat.

After Ji Qiu promised to provide food and accommodation, many people came to join him.

At the same time, a large proportion of the new soldiers recruited by Ji Qiu were the surrendered personal soldiers of Zhang Miao and the slaves of the aristocratic families who were exterminated.

These people didn't have much choice.

As for recruiting these people as soldiers, whether they would harbor resentment towards Ji Qiu.

There will definitely be some at the moment.

However, Ji Qiu believed that with the passage of time, with his sufficient material supplies and powerful political propaganda, he would quickly transform them into loyal subordinates.

This is also a test of the political propaganda agencies under his command!
As a result, the total number of logistics battalions reached a staggering 50,000.

With 50,000 logistics personnel and 10,000 combat soldiers, the military force under Ji Qiu's command has reached the limit of what he can currently support.

Fourth, those aristocratic families that were originally weak and became even weaker after Zhang Miao used his smuggling army were confiscated and exterminated by Zhang Miao.

The wealth that was copied naturally belonged to Ji Qiu.

In addition to the convertible resources and wealth worth 50 million modern funds, there are also three acquired secret techniques.

One is the Hanpo Sword, which is a secret dragon weapon technique. The main material is dragon steel and the auxiliary material is cold iron.

Ji Qiu has no shortage of dragon steel, but he does not have cold iron, which is another material for dragon weapons and requires corresponding material secret techniques to make.

So for the time being he is unable to refine the Hanpo Sword.

According to the introduction in the secret book, after the Hanpo Sword is successfully refined, it has the ability to release cold air.

The top-grade Hanpo Sword is said to be able to freeze thousands of enemy soldiers into ice with one strike, and its power is extremely strong!
The second is the Night Light Technique, which is a unique secret technique that can release white light to illuminate the night.

Two auxiliary materials are required: night-shining sand and night-shining pearls.

Among them, Yemingsha is a traditional Chinese medicine, which refers to the dried feces of various bats such as the big-eared bat, the crescent-winged bat, and the horseshoe bat.

The Night Pearl is the same as the Night Pearl required in the Dragon Steel Secret Art, both are fluorite.

Ji Qiu can get these two things, so he can practice the night-light technique at any time.

When this technique is cultivated to the highest level, it is said to have the ability to change the celestial phenomena, and can turn an area of ​​ten miles from night to day in an instant!

The third is the art of replenishing vital energy, which is also a unique secret art that can replenish the body's vital energy and heal people.

This technique requires dozens of precious Chinese herbal medicines such as ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, deer antler, and red fruit as materials for practice.

It is said that if this technique is practiced to the highest level, it can have the power to turn the dead into bones!

……

Luoyang City, Taifu Mansion.

Yuan Po held the report document that Zhang Miao had just delivered in his hand. He glanced at it quickly and his face became as gloomy as the night sky before a storm.

With a loud "bang", he slammed the document to the ground. His eyes widened with anger, and the veins on his forehead bulged like angry little snakes.

"Zhang Miao, you bastard, how dare you fool me like this? Do you really think I'm a three-year-old child?" Yuan Po gritted his teeth and cursed.
