"Gao Shun's camp will take time to train, and other troops will also need to be supplemented."

Zhang Hua and Zhao Kuangyin confronted each other for a while, neither side acted rashly.

Zhang Hua had just experienced the Changping War not long ago and had a great war with Nurhaci, with special troops such as the Cang Camp, the Xuanjia Army, the Bailang Army, and the Yiluohe River. The organization was not complete and he still needed to recruit troops again.

The Xia army captured six important towns, Xingyang, Daliang, Xinzheng, Zhongmu, Changshe and Yangdi, and obtained a population of more than 2 million.

Zhang Hua used Daliang as a bridgehead to guide the Central Plains and deployed heavy troops here.

After Daliang City was flooded, a city could be rebuilt.

Zhang Hua's territory exceeds tens of millions of people. As long as he is willing to invest resources and wants to rebuild a city, it is no longer as difficult as gradually upgrading.

Zhang Hua gained a firm foothold in the Central Plains and had time to reorganize and deploy, and adjust the strength of each legion.

Territory expansion requires the establishment of new legions.

The First Yuntai Army stationed in Chencang and guarded Chencang, Fengxiang and Qishan areas. The main general Feng Yi, deputy general Ma Wu and Zhao Ponu.

The Yuntai Legion's mission was to resist the Qin army in Longshan and the Hanzhong army in Hanzhong, which was under great pressure.

The Second Northern Palace Army stationed in Yubi, guarding half of Hedong, and was also responsible for guarding Guanzhong. The main general Xie Xuan, deputy general Liu Laozhi, and Yue Lei, Sun Wuzhong, Chen Bozhi, He Qian and other military generals of the Northern Palace were tasked with resisting Li Keyong's Tang army. Xie Xuan had to face Li Keyong and the Thirteenth Taibao, and the pressure was quite high.

The third Shun Army stationed in Mizhizhai and guarded the Loess High Slope. The main general Gao Guiying, deputy general Liu Zongmin and Li Yan were guarding against the Tuoba Xianbei tribe.

The Fourth Martial Soldiers Army, stationed in Shangdang, guarded the Taihang Mountains, the chief general Wei Wuji, deputy generals Le Yang, Wang Ping, threatened Liu Xiu from Hebei and Li Keyong from Hedong.

The Fifth Luozhou Army, stationed in Changshe, the chief general Fan Zhongyan, deputy general Wu Jie, and Zhong Shidao, guarding against Cao Cao.

The Sixth Tang Guard Army was stationed in Daliang, with the chief general Li Ji, deputy general Xue Rengui, and Qi Zhu Heli to guard against Zhao Kuangyin.

In addition, the Seventh Xuanjia Legion was formed, stationed in Ruzhou, with the main general Zhang Xutuo, deputy general Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Tian Heng, Gou Xi, Huang Hao, and guard against Gao Huan.

There are seven legions, each of which has expanded to 80,000, which is 560,000 soldiers.

Zhang Hua readjusted the Imperial Guards and organized them into three camps of the Imperial Guards.

[The First Women's Camp of the Imperial Army]

Military generals: Mulan, Liang Hongyu, Sun Shangxiang, Lu Lingqi, Tang Sai'er.

Special arms: Iron Eagle Scout, Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, Crane Camp, Divine Arm Bow Soldier, White Lotus Army.

The main mission of the Women's Camp is to station in Chang'an and Xiacheng, and follow Zhang Hua to the expedition if necessary.

[The Second Divine Inspector Camp of the Imperial Guard]

Military generals: Xu Chu, Wei Yan, Ran Liang, Zhou Tai.

Special arms: Tiger Guard, Greedy Wolf Camp, and Beggar Army.

[The Third Imperial Guard Divine Cavalry Camp]

Military generals: Huang Zhong, Jiang Wei, Deng Ai, Chen Qingzhi, and Yang Ye.

Special arms: Fire Bow Cavalry, Shi Luohe, Changshui Camp, Bailang Army, Yang Family Army.

The three camps of the Imperial Guard have a total strength of about 300,000.

In addition, Zhang Hua also set up a navy commander, and navy generals such as Lu Ju, Zhang Huangyan and other navy commanders were trained to the navy camp.

Zhang Hua's forces, soldiers and horses, totaled three camps of the imperial guards and seven legions.

This does not include the scattered city defenses and the Jiangdong army of Sun Ce who did not completely surrender.

According to Zhang Hua's organization, his territory can really bring in a million troops.

Both Zhang Hua and Liu Xiu are expanding rapidly.

A thousand good generals and a million troops are the princes at the hegemony level.

A hundred good generals and hundreds of thousands of troops can only control one side.

As for the lord with only tens of thousands of troops, he belonged to the third-rate princes. He could barely survive and looked for opportunities to expand and had a chance to break through, but the opportunity was already slim.

If the troops are hundreds or thousands, at most, they will be considered bandits and bandits, and they will not even be considered as princes.

Zhang Hua left behind the Luozhou Legion, the Sixteen Guard Legion, the Xuanjia Legion, a total of three legions, and more than 200,000 troops in the six towns of the Central Plains.

The Imperial Guards retreated to Xiacheng to rest.

Xiacheng is located in the middle of Heluo. You can cross the Yellow River to the north, you can guide Guandong to the east, and support Guanzhong to the west.

Then, Zhang Hua returned to Chang'an with a team of cavalry.

Zhang Hua fought in Kanto for several months, captured the six towns in Chuzhou and Zhongyuan, and obtained millions of people.

However, there are many princes in the Central Plains, and it will take a lot of effort to pacify the heroes of the Central Plains.

All the troops were tired, and Zhang Hua asked the generals to rest for the time being, and he also wanted to go back to visit Mulan and her upcoming baby.

As Guanzhong enters autumn, farmers are busy harvesting crops. The government collects tenant rent and earns the levy from the grain silo.

On the way back to Guanzhong, you can see thousands of hectares of fertile land, a piece of golden.

These are the food and supplies for the summer army to go to war next year.

When Zhang Hua returned to Chang'an City, the palace maids came in and out, busy all the time.

Because a prince or a princess is about to be born.

Liang Hongyu personally led his troops to escort the palace and announced martial law.

Liu Rushi, Xie Daoyun, Princess Yongmu, Li Wenxin and others all gathered in the harem.

Among them, Li Wenxin, the daughter of Li Shizhen, was responsible for delivering the baby, and everyone was nervous.

If Mulan gave birth to a man, she would most likely become the prince.

This is an unprecedented event for Zhang Hua's power, which lacks heirs.

Tang Sai'er took Ma Liang, Ling Tong, Wu Lin, Zhou Zhang and others from the Nanyang Basin to return to Guanzhong, stationed in the outer city of Chang'an, and guarded the layers of layers.

She learned that Zhang Hua had returned to Chang'an, so she went out to Guo and greet him: "Master, Sister Mulan is about to give birth."

"Hurry, come into the city with me."

When Zhang Hua heard that the first child was about to be born, he immediately led the cavalry and rushed into Chang'an.

With Zhang Hua's token, you can travel smoothly.

Tang Sai'er followed Zhang Hua and couldn't help but envy Mulan's treatment.

But she and Zhang Hua are masters and apprentices, so it should be difficult...

Tang Sai'er was a little disappointed again.

"Master!"

Liang Hongyu, who was guarding the palace gate, was filled with joy when she saw Zhang Hua returning to the harem in a hurry.

"How is Mulan's situation?"

"Li Wenxin has already gone to deliver her sister's baby. I don't know the specific situation."

Liang Hongyu has served Zhang Hua with Princess Yongmu, and now she claims to be herself as a concubine.

"Xu Chu, you are outside and take over Yu'er to guard the palace gate. Yu'er, follow me in and see what your sister Mulan is doing."

Zhang Hua was already a little impatient.

Xu Chu was like a door god, holding the Tiger Guards guarding the palace gate, and remained motionless.

Zhang Hua brought Liang Hongyu, Sun Shangxiang, Tang Sai'er, Lu Lingqi and others into the harem.

"Young Master!"

Liu Rushi, Xie Daoyuan, and Princess Yongmu were all surprised when they saw Zhang Hua come back.

"Um."

Zhang Hua nodded. These women lived in the harem, but so far, only Mulan, Liang Hongyu and Princess Yongmu were the only ones who really started Zhang Hua.

Mulan was the first original wife to follow Zhang Hua, and Liang Hongyu was entrusted to Zhang Hua by her father, and she and Princess Yongmu were to win over the political marriage of the Tang Dynasty generals.

Just at this moment, the cry of a child came from Mulan's room, and Li Wenxin held a child out and said, "Lord, it's a little prince."

Prince!

Now Liu Rushi, Sun Shangxiang, Xie Daoyun and others surrounded him and watched curiously the future crown prince, all of which were the sound of the sound of the bells and swallows.

"Is Mulan okay?"

"Sister is fine, lord can go in and visit."

"Um."

Zhang Hua glanced at his son a little, then walked into Mulan's boudoir and saw Mulan sweating profusely.

"Mr...."

"You don't have to get up."

Zhang Hua clenched Mulan's little hand tightly, stroked her messy black hair, and wiped the sweat beads on her forehead and nose.
