Chapter 785

After entering Xiangyang City, Liu Bu did not hesitate at all. After confirming the list of rewards, he immediately sealed the reward on the spot. The soldiers who were looking forward to the reward were excited and excited about it.

The change of ownership of Xiangyang City means that the most powerful and wealthy people in Xiangyang City either surrendered to the Liu family or became the object of their downfall. These luxury houses, fields and shops in the city used to be officials and royal mansions of the Ming Dynasty, but now they belong to. It is owned by the soldiers or officers of the Chinese army.

Liu Bu doesn't wonder why he Liu Jiajun's people fight so hard, because each of them is basically a small boss. Generally, everyone knows that as long as they perform on the battlefield and stand out, they will have everything others strive for.

Their credit will not be swallowed up by their superiors or wiped out by their colleagues.

The Liu family really didn't lack silver, because the previous Liu family didn't lack it. In addition, a large amount of silver came from Liu bukeng, which made their silver pile into a mountain. After they got permission, they immediately distributed it to the soldiers.

For the fields and shops that cannot be taken away and taken away, they have left some relatively good ones, and the rest are awarded to the meritorious soldiers.

After the reward was completed, Liu Bu began to officially build Xiangyang division.

The former Xiangyang division was just a designation. It was not equipped at all. It could be called a grass-roots team. It was just this grass-roots team, but it carried Zhu Xieyuan's 100000 troops and showed its momentum.

Liu Bu appointed Li Dingguo as the division commander of Xiangyang division, and was ordered to form three regiments to recruit nearly 10000 troops. On this basis, he recruited more soldiers and turned this place into an important town in the north of Huguang.

From the moment Zhu Xieyuan's army retreated and Liu Bu arrived, what Liu Jiajun had to consider was not whether Xiangyang City could be protected, but how to govern the place and attack the enemy.

It is estimated that Zhu Xieyuan's army should be worried now. Even if they return to Nanyang, this is not a paradise. Once the Chinese Army draws out its troops, it will attack them.

Liu Bu did not disappoint them. After the reward was sealed, he immediately began to recruit troops and horses.

This is the reason why the emergency reward should be granted. The local people should see that being a soldier is so outstanding, so beautiful, money and what they want. Only in this way can these people compete to join their team.

Sure enough, when the Chinese Army announced its expansion, the local youth basically rushed to join the army.

Daming's conscription has reached the point of forcibly recruiting and catching strong men. In Daming, it really reflects what a good man is not a soldier and a good iron is not nailed.

The recruitment of the Chinese army is to choose thousands of people, that is, others choose their son-in-law, but they can recruit the strength of the place into the army.

On the first day of the lunar new year, Liu Bu spent his time among the soldiers. Everyone talked about sharing money and drawing a map to seal the land. How happy is it? In the evening, Li Dingguo wanted to invite him to dinner. Liu Bu said, "I promised the third lady to go back to dinner next time."

As soon as Li Dingguo heard about it, he gave it up. Li Dingguo remembered that the marshal and the third lady are now in the same room. They are newly married and stick together, which is very normal.

Liu Bu returned to the palace. Today's palace is different from yesterday, because they cleared away a large number of people from the former palace, which has become very deserted.

Basically, the guards here are Liu Bu's personal team. In the past, all its slaves, except some core personnel, did not stay.

For example, this huge palace still needs to be maintained by others. Some servants are responsible for cooking and maintaining this place, and some people have been retained.

Of course, they can only be preserved if they are slaves. If they are members of the royal family, they will all be arrested. They will not stay in the palace if they should be exiled or executed.

Just yesterday, they cleared away the remaining half of the palace. In the past, there were more than 2000 people in the palace. Now only one or two hundred people can stay, and the rest are the soldiers of the Chinese army.

This is also a reason to go to Zhu Minghua. This is to rob each other. It is impossible to let too many people stay here. If this is the case, Liu Bu doesn't even dare to sleep.

There are fewer people in the royal residence, but the guard is still so strict that Liu Bu's Pro Corps is responsible for guarding it.

Although the former palace was rich, luxurious and dignified, there were not many troops stationed in the palace.

After Zhu Di learned the successful experience and lessons of his rebellion, he controlled these Royal mansions more severely.

In the era of Zhu Yuanzhang, there were two or three thousand soldiers in the royal residence, and tens of thousands more. For example, the most was king Ning, who was far away in Daning. It is said that he had 80000 elite soldiers.

Even Zhu Di's rebellious troops were borrowed from him. When he borrowed troops, he said well. He laid the world and divided them equally.

Therefore, after Zhu Di rebelled, he made strict regulations on the guards in the palace. Although he still retained the name of the three guards of the palace and could support thousands of people in name, he could only allow more than 1000 soldiers at most. No more would be impeached by local officials.

Moreover, these soldiers are paid by the king's house, not by the local government. In a peaceful and prosperous age, which Prince and the king's house are willing to raise so many soldiers and people, so there are not many soldiers in the king's house, but most of them are ordinary families and servants, and they have gradually become a small city.

The so-called Xiangwang mansion is actually equivalent to a small city, which is equivalent to the luxury villa area in the city where Liu Bu's later generations live. Generally, they live in rich and noble families.

Liu Bu felt a little strange when he saw that there were so few people in the palace and became deserted. However, after returning to the harem, he also felt warm. This is because Ziqing put on a palace suit and knelt down at the table waiting for him to eat.

Liu Bu has a feeling that it is like watching Island action movies in future generations, women waiting for her husband's return.

After Liu Bu returned to the main hall of the palace, he began to remove his armor, then picked up Zheng Ziqing, took her hand and sat down for dinner.

Before that, Ziqing was in great awe of Liu Bu, some awe and some fear, but after having a close relationship with the skin, he was not so afraid. After all, she knew what it was like for women, and there was nothing to avoid suspicion.

Although she didn't feel any fun in it, seeing Liu Bu playing so happy and fun, she just accompanied him. Women just have to make men happy, don't they?

Liu Bu saw the usually heroic, handsome and sassy purple green. After changing into a woman's dress, he seemed to have a different flavor. He thought of all kinds of beauty in her boudoir. His heart was hot. He said, "why don't you move all this to the room to eat?"

Purple looked at him and said, "who will eat in the room?"

Liu Bu smiled. The food in the palace was very well cooked. If the food was not well cooked, they were not qualified to cook for the vassal kings. They should represent the highest level of contemporary chefs and would never be worse than the imperial chefs.

After cooking, the imperial chef has to go through layers of inspection and pass it to the emperor. It's already cold, but the vassal king doesn't pay so much attention. Basically, he can bring it up and eat it now. It's fresh and hot.

Liu Bu was in a good mood when he saw a table of good wine and dishes, accompanied by beautiful women. He also knew that this meant a very beautiful night. He had to be like this. This was to wake up the power of the world and lie drunk on the knees of beautiful women.

During the day, when I go to the barracks, I command the army and raise the flag. Thousands of troops and horses have worked for me, killing the enemy and raiding all directions. At night, I return to my own harem and have fun with the beauty. Only in this way can I live up to my life and travel in vain.

Liu Bu took Ziqing's hand and everyone sat together and ate side by side.

Ziqing was not used to it. She said, "bitch, just sit down."

Liu preached, "there are not so many rules at home. Come here and serve me for dinner."

Liu Bu is not a person who likes others to serve dinner, but it is also a kind of enjoyment to have beautiful women to eat with him and add wine and vegetables, isn't it?

Liu Bu remembered the same thing after taking possession of Ziqing, a sunshine sports beauty. He said, "you were picked up by your father-in-law. Where did you live and what was your last name?"

Ziqing said, "I don't remember my last name before. I've been begging for a living since I remember. Anyone in my family basically forgot. Fortunately, I was taken in by my master. Today, I'm kind and rebuilt..."

As soon as Liu Bu heard this, there was nothing strange. Now he was in the troubled times of the imperial dynasty. There was chaos in the world and chaos in war. People died everywhere. People like her were gone, but someone could adopt and grow up. It was good. Many people died, and their children had to die with no salary.

Many villages and towns were deserted due to the disasters brought about by the little ice age. After more than 200 years of development, Daming also reached its peak, which declined and went to the point of decay.

The current problem in Daming is that there are many people with little food, and a large number of people have no food to eat. People starve to death every day every year. No matter who is in power, the first thing to solve is the problem of food. If these problems can not be solved, the population is a burden to them.

For Daming, their biggest burden now is to have a large population and a large number of mouths to eat.

But all this is only for Zhu Ming, who can only stick to the rules and scrape in the soil, but not for the Liu family. On the contrary, the population is a kind of wealth and can make them rapidly powerful resources.
