NOVEL SIMPLE Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning
Chapter 543
The candidates for the military officer had already been decided, but the civil servants headed by Xun You, Cao Shuo, became even more difficult.
Xun You, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Jia Xu, Zhou Yu, Liu Ye, Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Chen Gong and so on.
There are also Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and Lu Xun who rushed back from the Eastern Wei Dynasty to return to their orders, and Pang Tong, who had just been discovered from Nanyang County.
Except for Jia Xu and Chen Gong, everyone else is young.
Cao Shuo thought for a while and said, "Two years later, Guo Jia, Liu Ye, Zhuge Liang, and Sima Yi will accompany you on the Western Expedition. You rest in Luoyang City for a month, and then rush to the Protectorate of the Western Regions."
"promise!"
"At the same time, the navy will assist us. You three, Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, and Kuai Liang, will select [-] sailors from Taishici's navy camp in Jingzhou to join Taishici, Jiang Qin, Dong Xi, Ling Cao, and Zhu Heng. Let the five go to Zhuyazhou together, and I will order you to attack the back of the Guishuang Empire from the sea in two years' time."
"promise!"
After Cao Shuo dealt with the military, he directed the Military Aircraft Department, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Officials to develop farming tools and cultivate fine varieties.
Two years later, Cao Shuo put Zhao Yun, Xi Zhicai, Xun You, and Xun Yu in charge of the country. He led [-] Xuanjia troops, [-] Tiger Guards, and a few young generals to the Protectorate of the Western Regions.
When he came to the Protectorate of the Western Regions, Cao Shuo was not in a hurry to attack the Guishuang Empire.
He is here to look for some crops that he has seen in later generations.
Lu Wen looked at a white flower in Cao Shuo's hand and asked, "Your Majesty, this flower is a bit unlucky."
In her eyes, the color of flowers should at least be bright. Flowers like this are usually reserved for the dead.
Cao Shuo said: "This is cotton. After processing, it is made into clothes, but it is very warm."
Wang Yi asked, "Is there any clothes stuffed with down to keep you warm?"
"Down is too troublesome to make, but cotton is easier."
After Cao Shuo wrote down the cotton seeds and planting methods, he sent someone back to Luoyang.
"Your Majesty, General Huang Zhong invites you to the barracks."
Cao Shuo followed Zhang Liao's son Zhang Hu to the barracks.
Huang Zhong summoned dozens of generals and waited for Cao Shuo's order to send troops.
It has been a month since Cao Shuo came here, and he was traveling around the mountains and rivers every day. Huang Zhong suspected that Cao Shuo had forgotten about the expedition.
"Why is General Huang so eager?"
"Your Majesty, the soldiers are about to fall ill."
Cao Shuo said angrily, "Isn't it good to fight without a war? People die when they fight."
"We are not afraid of death!"
All the generals in the big tent expressed their opinions one after another.
Guo Jia asked, "Did you find the guide?"
Huang Zhong nodded.
Cao Shuo said: "It is now March, and the closest route to the Guishuang Empire is still covered by heavy snow. Let's practice first. Gao Shun, Zang Ba, Wei Xu, Zhang Hu, Ma Dai, you lead an army of [-], Destroy Kangju in the north for me."
"promise!"
The current Xuanjia army is simply not something that nomads can resist.
In less than a month, Gao Shun's [-] troops returned victorious.
On Cao Shuo's list of Western countries, Kangju was crossed out.
"Report to Your Majesty, the spies who went to the Guishuang Empire have returned."
Cao Shuo asked, "What is the population and military strength of the Guishuang Empire?"
"The Guishuang Empire has been plagued by plagues in recent years, just like the Han Dynasty, and its population has also decreased a lot. It currently has a population of more than 400 million."
Cao Shuo raised his eyebrows, and the population dropped sharply from more than 180 million in 300 to more than 400 million.
The soldiers were horrified. There were more than 400 million people, so wouldn't their army exceed 30?
"A large number of people does not mean a strong combat power. Han Sheng led the army into the border of Guishuang."
"No!"
Xun You, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Jia Xu, Zhou Yu, Liu Ye, Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Chen Gong and so on.
There are also Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and Lu Xun who rushed back from the Eastern Wei Dynasty to return to their orders, and Pang Tong, who had just been discovered from Nanyang County.
