    In the next three months, Ao Lie did not leave Yanjing for half a step. His daily life was very regular, almost entirely a three-point and one-line life.  Every morning, Ao Lie held a court meeting with all the officials in the DPRK, which lasted for about an hour, and gave instructions on major and minor affairs of the country. Afterwards, Ao Lie would come to the military camp to supervise and inspect the soldiers who had recently been recruited into the army.  During their drills, Ao Lie would spend almost the whole morning in the military camp. Many times, he would stay in the military camp and eat a big pot of rice with the soldiers, so that the recruits gradually felt Ao Lie's care for the lower-level sergeants.  This greatly speeds up the process of cultivating their military souls; after lunch, Ao Lie will come to the general to inspect the achievements of skilled craftsmen such as Wang Hun and Ma Jun, and will praise them from time to time to encourage these unknown craftsmen.  The heroes behind the scenes have made all the weapons and equipment needed by the generals even better.  Occasionally, Ao Lie would go to the market in Yanjing City to conduct private visits incognito to check the public sentiment. Once he found out that any official of the DPRK had a bad reputation among the people, Ao Lie would immediately arrange a bloody investigation to collect evidence.  , if it is found that there is indeed an act of exploiting the common people, taking bribes and bending the law, they will be severely punished.  Fortunately, in the past three months, Ao Lie had only heard bad words from the people about two officials from the DPRK and China. After verification, only one of the two people really enriched himself, and the other was just because  Due to his personality, there were some problems in communicating with the people, but he did not really violate the law.  There are more than 200 civil and military officials in the DPRK and China. The ratio is 1 in 200, which makes Ao Lie very pleased with the clarity of officialdom. Of course, the official who was corrupt and violated the law will naturally not escape the end of his life.  Every evening, Ao Lie would walk back to his palace under the setting sun, walk straight through several halls, and come to the harem to share the joy of family love with his family.  In these three months.  Ao Lie would personally teach Liu Kun for two hours every day after dinner. One hour was spent on reading and literacy, and the other hour was spent on easing his tendons and marrow, and supervising him to practice Tai Chi breathing and breathing techniques.  After three months, little Liu Kun's progress was very obvious. The Chinese characters on the Enlightenment Literacy Encyclopedia commonly used in Yenching Academy.  He has been able to accurately recognize and write more than 300 characters fluently. At the same time, under Ao Lie's guidance, the meridians in his body have been warmed and sorted out. In addition, he is originally a pure Yang body.  , there are not many impurities in the body.  Therefore, a solid foundation was laid early, paving the way for future martial arts.  Three months later, Ao Lie was no longer as idle as before, because after three months of selection, Longxiang Heavy Cavalry became the last elite unit to complete the expansion of the army.  Ao Lie's focus immediately shifted to the training of Long Xiang's heavy cavalry.  Because it was the last to complete the expansion, it was compared to the other three elite troops.  The overall combat effectiveness of Longxiang Heavy Cavalry has been lagged behind. If they want to catch up and keep pace with the other three elites, they must pay far more blood and sweat than ordinary people. Whether it is Ao Lie or Lu Bu, whether it is a veteran  Even new recruits have to go through this arduous process.  In order for the Longxiang Army to live up to its reputation as the world's most heavy cavalry, the entire Longxiang Army, from top to bottom, must undergo high-intensity training every day until the last person is so tired that he crawls to the ground.  With the efforts of the Longxiang heavy riders, the results they gained are also amazing.  In just three months, they were training hard.  Perfectly re-formed as a whole, the combat power is on par with the bloody battles of hundreds of battles!  Ao Lie also used these three months to get himself back on track and spent most of his time training with the Longxiang heavy cavalry every day.  To be honest, it has been a long time since he has conducted such systematic and high-intensity training. During this period, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, the Five Tiger Generals, and the Eighth Generals have all become the objects for him to hone his martial arts skills. Through and different  After fighting with people with different styles and understandings of martial arts, Ao Lie's martial arts improved to a higher level, and he broke through the bottleneck twice in succession, making the Wuji Nine Yang Gong break through to the unprecedented twenty-fourth level. At the same time, his own strength increased in  After this period of hard work, there has been a significant improvement.  Now even if Overlord Xiang Yu comes back from the dead, Ao Lie has full confidence to compete with him for the title of Overlord.  However, although he was exhausted from practicing every day, Ao Lie never stopped cultivating Liu Kun. He sincerely hoped that his son would be stronger than himself and be able to better continue the inheritance of the Han people. At the same time,  He also looked forward infinitely that one day, he could fulfill the agreement between father and son and appear on the battlefield together to scold Fang Qiu!  During the half-year period when Ao Lie was working hard, Cao Cao, who was dominating the Central Plains, was not idle. He used this time to do the same thing as Ao Lie, recruiting troops and buying horses to expand his strength. At the same time, he sent Sima Yi to send troops to Jizhou three times in an attempt to recapture Jizhou.  Wei Jun even captured Jizhou.  Unfortunately, Ao Lie had already known that Cao Cao would make this move, so he transferred Zhuge Liang from Yizhou back to Jizhou and asked him to take charge of Jizhou again.?The big picture.  With the help of Zhang He, Xu Huang and some civil and military officials transferred from Yizhou and Jiangdong, Zhuge Liang managed to keep Jizhou intact and defeated Sima Yi three times in succession, causing him to return without success three times.  In history, Zhuge Liang was the main attacker, while Sima Yi was the main defender. The defending side had a certain advantage by taking advantage of the geographical advantage. Therefore, Sima Yi in history was able to resist tenaciously under the dual factors of his own wisdom and geographical advantage.  He defeated Zhuge Liang's several offensives.  But now, reality and history have changed. Zhuge Liang is based in Jizhou and has a much better team than ever before for him to command and dispatch. However, Sima Yi had to be forced by the situation and pressure to become the main attacker. Originally,  The talents of the two are comparable, and even Zhuge Liang is slightly better. Now that the situation has changed, it has naturally become that Sima Yi is doing nothing, while Zhuge Liang is as stable as a mountain.  What's more, the current Zhuge Liang is no longer the Zhuge Liang in history. Under the guidance and training of Ao Lie, Zhuge Liang is stronger than ever in terms of temperament and talent. He is even more powerful when he can deal with his old enemy Sima Yi.  Feeling at ease.  Half a year later, the expansion of the Northern Han army was basically completed.  The newly recruited soldiers were as planned by the Northern Han monarchs and ministers, and there were exactly 500,000 soldiers, bringing the total strength of the Northern Han regular army to a daunting 2.4 million people!  This does not include the 200,000 troops of the four elite troops and the shadow members scattered throughout the country.  Of course, the old soldiers in Yizhou under Xu Shu, Jingzhou under Pang Tong and Jiangdong under Sun Quan were an important reason for the increase in the number of regular troops in the Northern Han Dynasty. They were originally the main force in these three major states.  The army just returned from different camps to the Northern Han camp, so after some elimination, a large number of fighting men were still retained in the three states.  After the army expansion was completed, Ao Lie convened a military meeting with all the civil and military officials. At the meeting, the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Han Dynasty finally made a decision based on the existing large number of regular troops.  Divided into five legions, they guarded all directions in the Northern Han Dynasty.  The five major armies are: the Northern Army, which is mainly based on Youzhou and supplemented by Guang, Ming and Tongzhou. Ao Lie personally serves as the first army commander, followed by Lu Bu and Zhao Yun; the Northern Army is mainly based on the Guanzhong area, with the Sanfu area and  The Guanzhong Army Corps with Liangzhou as its auxiliary was headed by Ma Chao, followed by Pang De, Ma Dai and Zhu Hao; the Southwest Army Corps, with Yizhou as its main body and Nanzhong area as its auxiliary, was led by Xu Shu, followed by Meng Huo.  ; The Southern Army Corps, which is dominated by Jingzhou and supplemented by Jiangdong area and Jiaozhou, is led by Pang Tong, followed by Zhou Yu and Lu Meng; because Jizhou is geographically located at the center of the war with Cao Cao, and is densely populated and economically prosperous, so it is divided into  Jizhou formed a legion, called the Hebei Legion. Zhuge Liang deservedly became the first legion commander, followed by Zhang He and Xu Huang.  These five legions, in addition to their respective local garrisons, each commanded 450,000 regular troops of the Northern Han Dynasty. Only the Northern Legion was equipped with 600,000 regular troops because it was the political, military and economic center of the Northern Han Dynasty.  In order to respond to emergencies, we can support all parties in the shortest possible time.  Of course, the formation of the five major legions will inevitably decentralize the centralized power. The people who are now in charge of the five major legions are Ao Lie's close ministers. Naturally, there will be no situation of self-respect for the army, but it is impossible for them to do so in their lifetime.  When they grow old, including Ao Lie, they will eventually reach the end of their lives. Ao Lie does not want the five major legions to form a trend of being too big to lose, and let his son Liu Kun deal with the hidden dangers left by him. Therefore, Ao Lie is building the five major legions.  At the same time, they also took measures to control the five major legions. All the grain, grass, armaments and other materials of these five major legions were uniformly allocated by the imperial court. The five major legions did not have the power to expand the army or collect taxes privately. They had to go through  Only with the approval of the Military Government and the Government Affairs Government can they obtain sufficient military expenditures and food pay.  At the same time, Ao Lie also made a stipulation that the five legions would only be used during war. When the war was over, he would reduce the number of soldiers in the five legions and return the military power to the country.  The establishment of the five major legions officially announced to everyone in the world that the Northern Han Dynasty had completed the siege of the Central Plains. Once the Northern Han Dynasty is ready, the military power of the Northern Han Dynasty, with Ao Lie as the supreme leader, will inevitably attack the Central Plains.  Cao Cao's troops gave a thunderous blow!  Complete the great cause of unifying the world!
