Ding Yuan even used his relationship with Lu Bu to ask Lu Qing what he wanted to do.
Although Lu Bu didn't say anything, he could guarantee that he wouldn't attack Bing Province.
Almost no one would have thought that Lu Qing would take the initiative to attack the grassland. After all, with the Great Han Dynasty's decline, it was already good enough that the grassland did not attack. It was almost impossible for them to take the initiative to attack.
The people's hearts were boiling, and countless resources were available. The recruitment and reorganization of troops were simply going smoothly.
The original 210,000 soldiers of Youzhou consisted of 110,000 cavalry and 100,000 infantry.
This time, all of them would be reorganized into cavalry. The Snow Dragon Cavalry would be independent, and these ten thousand would be stationed in Ji County to guard the Provincial Governor's Office, just like the imperial guards in the palace.
In other words, Youzhou's external forces would be 200,000 cavalry. Even during the period of the Three Kingdoms 'chaotic war, this would still be a father-level force.
Following that, they recruited 100,000 soldiers, and each county was based on its size, with 1,000 to 3,000 stationed there.
It was managed by the county captain of the county. At the same time, Lu Qing restricted the authority of the county magistrate and prefect.
County magistrates and prefects were all civil officials. They could only manage government affairs and had no right to mobilize troops.
At most, they would mobilize some officers from the government office, and these officers could not be equipped with bows, arrows, armor, and other equipment.
This was the separation of the military and the government. Lu Qing's experience from history told him that the military and the government had to be separated. Otherwise, it would be easy for something to happen.
The citizens of Youzhou supported Lu Qing. The moment the recruitment notice was released, countless citizens rushed into the government offices.
In just three days, 100,000 people were recruited! And this was under the circumstances where Lu Qing's requirements were very high.
He didn't want an only child, and he didn't want anyone under the age of sixteen.
This scene completely shocked Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Cai Yong, and the others. They all sighed with emotion. Who in the world could resist such popular sentiment?
After the recruitment was over, Lu Qing had to carry out the second thing, which was the recruitment order!
200,000 iron cavalry, this scale was really too large. Lu Qing's target this time was four races!
Xiongnu, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Xiqiang.
These were the four most powerful races on the grasslands. Although the Xiongnu were no longer the overlords of the Han Dynasty, they were still one of the top forces on the grasslands.
It could be said that any one of them could give the Great Han Imperial Court a headache. Lu Qing's goal this time was to attack these four grassland overlords at the same time.
His idea was to directly push into the grassland for a hundred miles and build a city and roads with cement there, so that Youzhou could directly obtain a buffer land of a hundred miles. In the future, it would slowly devour the entire grassland.
Such a large-scale battle required many generals. After all, even Zhao Yun had told Lu Qing about it.
If they were to lead troops into battle, they would personally lead soldiers into the battlefield. It would be best if they could command ten thousand people.
This was especially true for a long distance assault on the grasslands. If he commanded too many troops, it would instead cause bad consequences.
Lu Qing only had Lu Bu, Gongsun Zan, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun.
There were only five of them. For Tian Yu and the others, they didn't dare to send them to such an important war. They were only responsible for protecting Youzhou.
Thus, Lu Qing wanted to activate the recruitment order to recruit more generals and strategists. He wanted to fight for them to go out with the army so that he could obtain better results.
Under Cai Yong's personal writing, Youzhou's recruitment order was issued.
With the support of Lu Qing, the commerce in Youzhou Province had become very prosperous. Countless merchants across the Great Han Dynasty would come to Youzhou Province. After all, Lu Qing had brought many new and interesting things from the modern era. When these merchants brought them back to the Central Plains, they would make a lot of money.
Therefore, through the channels of merchants, Lu Qing directly issued the recruitment notice to the world.
This effect was even more powerful than the imperial edict issued by the emperor.
In an instant, the entire world was in an uproar.
"Youzhou's recruitment order?"
"Oh my god! As long as one had a skill, they could enter Youzhou as an official, even without considering their status?”
"Hiss, blacksmiths, carpenters, do you think I can go with any special skills?”
As expected, Youzhou's recruitment notice caused a sensation in the world.
Because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Lu Qing had gained a certain reputation in the world, so many people chose to believe him.
In the scholarly community, because the author was Cai Yong, it was also highly credible.
For a time, many Humble Class scholars could not find a way out. They directly regarded Youzhou as their last hope. Countless people came to Youzhou with dreams.
In Qiao County of Qiao County, a youth rushed in front of a burly man.
"Big Brother Zhongkang, have you seen the Youzhou recruitment notice?”
The brawny man named Zhongkang was holding a recruitment notice, his eyes shining.
......
A middle-aged man in Nanyang, the Jing State, muttered to himself.
"I heard that Hua Tuo, the divine doctor, has gone to Youzhou to practice medicine. Perhaps I can take this opportunity to go there.”
........
Donglai County, Qingzhou.
"Mother, your body?"
A young man looked at his mother and said hesitantly.
His mother said in a deep voice.
"A good man's ambition lies in the four corners of the world. Now that the Youzhou Provincial Governor has issued the recruitment order, this is a godsend opportunity. You shouldn't give up your bright future just to be a mother.”
Hearing his mother's words, the young man's eyes gradually became firm.
......
Chen Liu Jiwu, a man with an evil face, looked at his hometown behind him and the arrest warrant in his hand. In the end, he gritted his teeth and ran north. Perhaps Youzhou had a chance of survival.
........
Because of the recruitment order, capable people from all over the world began to come to Youzhou.
In this era where the great clans controlled everything, many people had no chance of making a name for themselves. Only those who were willing to become slaves to the great clans could be recommended by them, which was the so-called recommendation of filial piety.
Now that there was an opportunity to stand out without having to be a slave, many people were willing to grab it.
