Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 425 Hercules Cup, Beihu Movement!
In early November, Guan Yu captured Bohai City under the cover of a family in the city.

After Liu De got the news, he directly appointed Guan Yu as the governor of Bohai County to consolidate the defense of Bohai City and monitor the movements of Pinggu City.

And Liu De was still in a stalemate with Uncle Yang (actually Hua Zan) by the bank of the Datong River. There were some small snowflakes in the sky a few days ago, and the army has been stationed in the camp. Training, usually becomes idle.

Moreover, Liu Dejun is a hodgepodge of people from all over the place, from Dongfu, Dongyu, Daicheng, Leyang, and Liaocheng. Although they are all from the Yanzhou army, they actually can't see each other.

The heads of Dongyu's soldiers are all raised, who said they are Liu De's fathers and fellow villagers!

Liaocheng soldiers should not give way too much. Liu De's army has two Liaocheng troops, one is the Euphorbia soldiers of the Chinese army, about half of them are Dongyu people, and most of them are from Liaocheng.

The other is Yannan's headquarters, basically all people from Liaocheng, such as Ma Yubo, the younger brother of Liu De's concubine Ma Yuxuan, and Zheng Zhongji and Zheng Shuyu, the two sons of Zheng Kui, the head of the Zheng family, the largest family in Liaocheng. It's all inside.

What's more, Yannan has always led them. Yannan's position is in the top five in the entire Liu De army, so his confidence is very strong. Although Yannan has been transferred to the Chinese army, how can it be impossible for the old leader not to take care of his old subordinates?

The soldiers of the Liaocheng army clashed with other armies, and they all stuck their necks and refused to give in at all, which also made Yannan's brain very troubled.

Not to mention the Zhongjun, it can be said that the Dongyu Army and the Zhongjun are basically a family, and the Liaocheng Army can be sidelined, and they are considered half of their own in the eyes of the Zhongjun and the Dongyu Army.

Although the Dongfu Army's foundation is not strong, but who told them that their leader is Liu De's uncle!

Chen Qi's younger sister is the main wife of the lord, who would dare to mess with her?

The Daicheng Army and the Leyang Army were a bit miserable. The main general of the Leyang Army was Wang Kun. Wang Kun was a ranger in Yandi. In the German army, he was later transferred to Shan Hongwei as a deputy general. With his military merits, he was promoted to lieutenant.

The military position is just a school lieutenant, and his ability is average, and he is not a close friend of Liu De. Apart from commanding Leyang City, his backer has a low status. Who do you bully?

This is Wang Kun, at least an old man in Yanzhou, and he has acquainted with Dong Yu's generals, so it won't be too ugly.

Daicheng died in battle because of Zhang Hong. If Zhang Hong was here, and Liu Gui who guarded Liaocheng would not be too presumptuous, the main reason was Zhang Hong's death in battle. Qi Jing, who succeeded Zhang Hong as the general, was an outsider and He was born as a general, and he led the Liaocheng water army to attack Yang Jun's camp at the earliest and was defeated.
For various reasons, some soldiers of other armies taunted the Liaocheng army from time to time, which made the Liaocheng army very useless. In any case, those who failed had no confidence.

Sometimes the sarcasm goes too far, and fighting is inevitable. This makes Yannan, who is handling military affairs on Liu De's behalf, a headache.

If you want to kill chickens and monkeys and cut off a few heads, can you see if other generals are happy?
After all, although Yannan's status is quite high, he has not yet achieved the ability to overwhelm other generals with a single word, which is unrealistic.

Unless Liu De ordered!

But these are trivial matters, and it is impossible for Yan Nan to tell Liu De about these matters. Doesn't this show that Yan Nan is not capable as a subordinate?I can't even do this little thing well!

What's worse is that Peng Yue and Wei Yan's soldiers are all from the Peking family. Depending on the level of Peng Yue and Wei Yan, it's easy to manage these thousands of people, but no matter how powerful they are, they can't solve the regional discrimination!
Beiping is the state capital of Jizhou, and it is also the largest city in the Great Zhou Dynasty (Luodu is completely lonely), so of course they look down on Yanzhou, a remote county, and the soldiers in Beiping all look upwards. .

The soldiers of Yanzhou are not used to the bad habits of the people in Peiping. The defeated soldiers are still so arrogant, if you dare to fuck you!

Therefore, it is common for the Beiping Army to fight with the Yanzhou Army. This is the main contradiction, and the internal contradictions in Yanzhou are the secondary contradictions. This makes Yanzhou's younger brothers Daicheng and Leyang follow the Chinese Army and Dongyu Army to wave their flags.

As for the Central Guard Army, although Yannan handles things fairly and justly, it is inevitable that he still favors Yanzhou's side. This makes Peng Yue and Wei Yan somewhat dissatisfied. After all, they are the commanders of the two armies, and their subordinates were bullied, so they will not avenge their subordinates , can the people under your command convince you?

Peng Yue and Wei Yan broke into Yannan's big tent with the injured soldiers directly, wanting to seek justice for their subordinates, when they were quarreling in the tent, Liu De opened the curtain and entered.

There was an instant silence in the big tent.

Xu Shu followed behind Liu De, shaking his head slightly, expressing that the Lord is just angry, please don't make the Lord angry.

"Yo! The atmosphere is quite lively!"

Liu De smiled and sat down on the chief seat, and slapped Chi Xiaojian on the desk.

"Come on, keep arguing! Let me listen too!"

"My lord, this is just a trivial matter, and I will definitely deal with it in the end!" Yan Nan assured Liu De with an ugly expression on his face.

"Small matter? If I don't come here again, I'm afraid the army will be turned upside down!"

Liu De didn't get angry either, the army is full of energetic men, there is no place to vent, of course it's nothing to do, the so-called regional discrimination is more of an excuse!
It is also impossible to let them enter the city to find a place to exert their energy, after all, they are still fighting
"Go! Call all the generals over!"

Liu De said to Dian Wei beside him.

When all the generals arrived, Liu De expressed his thoughts: "Since the soldiers are so energetic, let's find a way to let them vent their spirits."

Yan Nan was puzzled and said: "Master, after all, we are confronting the enemy now. If we practice too much, it will be bad!"

"No!"

Of course Liu De knew what Yan Nan meant, but actually the practice was only part of it, but Liu De thought of another way.

"Of course the daily training is going on normally, and it should not be excessive. It is necessary to prepare for war at any time. One way I think of is to carry out Cuju competitions in the army!"

"Cuju competition!?"

The generals are full of doubts.

Liu De took a bag from Xu Chu's hand, and everyone noticed that Xu Chu had been carrying a bag since he came in.

Liu De took out a spherical object from the bag, and said to everyone: "This is Cuju. It is made of eight pieces of leather kneaded and molded, and the inside is made of pig urine foam, which can make Cuju have a certain degree of elasticity."

"Each football game is divided into two teams, with two goals, each team has 11 people, one of whom is the goalkeeper, the two sides compete, and the one who kicks the most balls into the opponent's goal wins!"

Liu De briefly explained the rules. For these illiterate soldiers, it would be useless to say too many rules. Do whatever is simple, but the general rules must be emphasized. Just kick with your feet, and no malicious harm is allowed. General physical confrontation does not matter.

The military football game in full swing began, and the energy of the soldiers was instantly released. If they didn't break a few balls a day, they would be ashamed to say that they had played football.

This also forced Liu De to ask Beiping to transfer a large number of urine bubbles as a supplement.

Liu De also specially held the first all-army competition, and each army sent a representative team to compete for the champion of the Hercules Cup!
Why it is called the Hercules Cup, the generals don't quite understand, but since the Lord has decided so, then so decide, no matter what!

There is no entertainment in this world, so a cuju match almost caused an upsurge in the whole army. Basically, anyone can kick twice, and those who kick beautifully will make everyone shout "Hello".

Regional discrimination still exists, but it has changed from dry fighting to cuju competition, which also makes Yannan breathe a sigh of relief.

When the Hercules Cup was held, except for the scouting sentinels, almost the whole army gathered together to watch the game. This forced Liu De to expand the field to accommodate the whole army, but in fact, the people behind could feel the warm atmosphere , basically nothing can be seen.

Liu De and the generals also went to the arena to watch the Cuju match. It would be interesting if Yang Jun on the other side launched an attack, but unfortunately they didn't.

Unexpectedly, it was not the powerful Chinese army or the fun-loving Beiping army that won the victory in the end, but the Daicheng army who had been acting as a small shou in the end, which surprised the whole army!

if so.
Xiaoshou Dai Chengjun finally elated, which made Leyang Jun, who is also Xiaoshou, very envious
Liu De personally awarded the trophy to the Daicheng Army. This first simple Hercules Cup finally came to an end. However, the atmosphere of Cuju in the army is still very strong. Li took back the Hercules Cup.

Liu De thinks this is very good.
During this period, Qin Qiong finally rushed back from Xinxing. Liu De appointed Qin Qiong as the temporary commander of the Liaocheng Army, and Li Dian, the former acting commander, was Qin Qiong's deputy general.

Huo Qubing, Yang Ye and his father and son finally arrived in Xinxing, and Bai Qi, as the coach, went out to meet him in person, but his face showed no emotion.

Huo Qubing and the others hurried forward to salute. They had seen the number one general in Liu De's army, and also the city guard of Xinxing City. The military and government of a county were firmly in Bai Qi's hands.

Yang Ye stepped forward and said to Bai Qi: "Commander, we have brought not only 1 soldiers, but also enough winter clothes for [-] horses. The rest of the winter clothes are still being made in Beiping and will be shipped soon."

"That's great!"

Bai Qi said: "With this batch of winter clothes, the soldiers can also be warmer!"

After all, Bai Qi led everyone into the government office. Huo Qubing was curious about where the acting king was, but Huo Qubing just thought about it and didn't dare to ask.

There is a huge map of Beizhou in the government office, which shows the landforms of Beizhou. Bai Qi said to everyone: "This is the map of Beizhou that was collected by the Xinxing Chief a long time ago. We found it. For the sake of saving, we have a black eye on Beizhou."

Bai Qi pointed to the border of Beizhou and said: "The commander-in-chief has sent Yu Chigong to lead [-] soldiers and horses to recover Yun County. Yun County originally had [-] defenders, all of whom were elite soldiers who had contact with the Hu people. With the new supplies and Ji Fengrun's order, the [-] defenders directly surrendered to our army!"

"Yu Chigong reported the day before yesterday that the Huren cavalry had been found in Yun County, but they were just sentinels. Yu Chigong wanted to capture the next two people, but let them escape! But this is enough to make us vigilant , My lord is right, the barbarians must have made a big move, but unfortunately we don't know too much about the situation."

"The lord sent someone to tell you that if you want to defend Beizhou, you must stick to Yunxian, Chicheng, and Zhangbei counties. Now a certain has sent deputy general Zhang Fang to lead [-] troops to defend Chicheng, but Zhangbei County has no generals to lead troops. Yang Will the captain be willing to lead troops there?"

Bai Qi acted vigorously and asked Yang Ye directly.

Yang Ye didn't dare to be negligent, he cupped his hands and said, "Ye is at the mercy of the commander-in-chief!"

Bai Qi handed a token to Yang Ye, and said: "Zhang Bei is close to the Great Wall, but the Great Wall has already been ruined. Captain Yang can send troops to repair the Great Wall. After all, with the Great Wall, we can prevent the barbarians from attacking in advance. You go with five thousand soldiers and horses!"

"The last general takes orders!"

Yang Ye took the token and bowed his hands.

Bai Qi looked at this young man who was appointed as a general by Liu De again. Compared with others, Huo Qubing had almost won Liu De's unprecedented favor, so Bai Qi took a high look at Huo Qubing now, but in fact Bai Qi is not clear about Huo Qubing's ability
"Huo Qubing, I have an important task for you. This is why my lord strongly recommends it. I don't know if you dare or not? This task is almost life-or-death! Of course, you can refuse, you have a choice This commander will not force you." Bai Qi put his hands behind his back and said to Huo Qubing word by word.

"Why don't you dare!"

Huo Qubing puffed up his chest, he knew that Bai Qi was trying to provoke him, so what?

He has a strong confidence in himself!

Bai Qi was also taken aback by this momentum.

"Maybe the lord can recognize that this young man is his spirit!" Bai Qi secretly said.

Bai Qi caressed his palms and shouted loudly: "Okay!"

"As expected of a hero out of a boy!"

"This commander wants you to lead the cavalry to go to the grassland next spring and attack Beihu King City directly. We don't know the situation in Monan where Beihu is located, so this expedition is extremely difficult. If you get lost in the desert, you will never return. , so, do you still dare to go?"

"There is no place in this world that I, Huo Qubing, can't go to!"

"Then how many soldiers and horses do you want?" Bai Qi looked directly at Huo Qubing.

"800 is enough!"

Bai Qi said for a long time: "That's [-]! The whole army is up to you to choose! You still have two months to prepare, and if it's not bad, Beihu's troops will attack Beizhou around the New Year, but I don't know Where will they attack? After all, Beizhou is already riddled with holes!"

"But if the enemy forces attack Xinxing County, I want to make these barbarians look good!"

Beizhou is in the shape of a long strip, starting from Yanshan Mountain in the east and reaching Tianwei Mountain in the west. The whole state is almost exposed to the barbarians. There are five counties in Beizhou. Although Xinxing County is not the capital of a state, it is the richest in Beizhou The county town, and the Hu people know it very well.

Therefore, with the greedy character of the Hu people, it is impossible to give up Xinxingcheng.
