In the next three months, Ao Lie did not leave Yanjing for a half-step. His daily life was very regular, almost completely a three-point and one-line life.

Every morning, he held a court meeting with hundreds of officials in the court, which lasted about an hour, and gave instructions on major and minor matters of the country. Then, Ao Lie would come to the military camp to supervise and inspect the exercises of newly recruited soldiers in recent times. Almost all morning, Ao Lie would spend in the military camp, and even many times, he would stay in the military camp to eat big pot meals with the soldiers, allowing the new soldiers to gradually feel Ao Lie's care for the lower-level soldiers, greatly accelerating the cultivation of their military spirits. After lunch, Ao Lie would come to the general to serve as the supervisor to check the achievements of skilled craftsmen such as Wang Hun and Ma Jun, and praise them from time to time, encouraging these unknown heroes behind the scenes to create better weapons and equipment needed by the general.

Occasionally, Ao Lie would visit the market in Yanjing City to observe the people's situation. Once he found that there was a bad reputation among the people, Ao Lie would immediately arrange a bloody murder investigation and evidence collection. If it was found that there was indeed fish and meat, and the people were corrupt and abused, they would be severely punished. Fortunately, for three months, Ao Lie had only heard bad words from the two officials in the court in the people. After verification, only one of the two people did have the practice of filling their own pockets, and the other had some problems in communication with the people because of their personality, and did not really violate the law. There were more than 200 civil and military officials in the court, and the ratio of one percent made Ao Lie very pleased with the Qingming Festival of the administration. Of course, the corrupt and abused official naturally could not escape the fate of the heads.

Every evening, Ao Lie would step back into his palace in the sunset, pass through several halls, come to the harem, and share the joy of family affection with his family. For these three months, Ao Lie would personally teach Liu Kun for two hours after dinner, one of which was to read and read, and the other was to cut off his muscles and marrow for him, and supervise him to practice Tai Chi breathing techniques. After three months, Liu Kun's progress was very obvious, and the Chinese characters on the Enlightenment and Literacy Collection, which is commonly used in the Yanjing Academy. He was able to accurately recognize and write more than 300 words fluently. At the same time, under Ao Lie's guidance, the meridians in his body were warmed and sorted out. In addition, he was originally a pure yang body, and there were not many impurities in his body. Therefore, he laid a solid foundation early and paved the way for future martial arts.

Three months later, Ao Lie was no longer as idle as before, because after three months of screening, Longxiong Heavy Cavalry became the last elite unit to complete the expansion of the army. Ao Lie's work focus immediately shifted to training the Longxiong Heavy Cavalry. Because it was the latest to complete the expansion of the army, compared with the other three elite units, the overall combat effectiveness of the Longxiong Heavy Cavalry has been left behind. If you want to catch up and run alongside the other three elite units, you must pay blood and sweat far beyond ordinary people. Whether it is Ao Lie or Lu Bu, whether it is veterans or new soldiers, you have to go through this arduous process. Only in order to make the Longxiong Army live up to the reputation of the world's number one cavalry. The entire Longxiong Army, from top to bottom, has to undergo high-intensity training every day until the last person is exhausted and falls to the ground.

With the efforts of the Dragon Soar Heavy Knights, the results they have gained are also amazing. In just three months, they have perfectly formed a whole in hard training, and their combat power is chasing and killing hundreds of battles! Ao Lie also took advantage of these three months to return to the furnace, and spent most of his time training every day. To be honest, he has not conducted high-intensity training in such a long time. During this period, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, the Five Tiger Generals, and the Eight Good Generals all became the objects of his training of martial arts. After fighting with people who had different styles and different understandings of martial arts, Ao Lie's martial arts went to the next level, breaking through the bottleneck twice in succession, making the Wuji Nine Yang Kung Fu break through to the unprecedented 24th level. At the same time, his own strength has also been significantly improved after this period of struggle.

Now even if the overlord Xiang Yu is resurrected from the dead, Ao Lie has full confidence to compete with him for the title of Overlord. However, although he is exhausted from practicing every day, Ao Lie has never interrupted his cultivation of Liu Kun. He sincerely hopes that his son can be stronger than him and can better continue the inheritance of the Han people. At the same time, he also hopes that one day, he can fulfill the agreement between the father and son and appear on the battlefield together!

During the half year of Ao Lili's preparation for his troops, Cao Cao, who was in the Central Plains, was not idle. He used this period to do the same thing as Ao Lie, recruiting troops to expand his strength, and sent Sima Yi to command Jizhou three times in a row, trying to regain Wei County, and even taking Jizhou. Unfortunately, Ao Lie had already decided that Cao Cao would take this move, so he transferred Zhuge Liang from Yizhou to Jizhou, allowing him to take charge of the overall situation of Jizhou again. With the help of Zhang He, Xu Huang, and some civil and military officials sent from Yizhou and Jiangdong, Zhuge Liang tried to ensure that Jizhou was in a state of land, defeated Sima Yi three times in succession, and made him return three times without success.

In history, Zhuge Liang was the main attacker, while Sima Yi was the main defense. The defender took advantage of the advantage of the geographical advantage and had a certain advantage. Therefore, Sima Yi in history was able to resist Zhuge Liang's several offensives under the dual factors of his own wisdom and geographical advantage. However, now, reality and history have changed. Zhuge Liang was in Jizhou and had a team that was far better than in history for his command and dispatch. However, Sima Yi had to be forced to under the situation and pressure.

He became the main attacker. The talents of the two were equally comparable, and Zhuge Liang was even slightly better. Now that the situation changed, he naturally became Sima Yi and was mediocre, but Zhuge Liang was as stable as Mount Tai. What's more, Zhuge Liang is no longer the Zhuge Liang in history. Under the leadership and cultivation of Ao Lie, Zhuge Liang was stronger than in history, and he seemed to be more at ease when dealing with his old enemy Sima Yi.

Half a year later, the expansion of the Northern Han army was basically completed. The newly recruited soldiers, like the plan of the monarch and ministers of the Northern Han army, had a total of 500,000 people, making the total strength of the Northern Han regular army reach a daunting 2.4 million! Among them, there are not even 200,000 troops of four elite troops and shadow members scattered in various places. Of course, Yizhou under Xu Shu, Jingzhou under Pang Tong and Jiangdong under Sun Quan, the old soldiers in these three regions were important reasons for the surge in the number of regular soldiers in the Northern Han. They were originally the main forces in these three major prefectures, but they were only surrendered from different camps to the Northern Han camp. Therefore, after some decommissioning, a large number of warworthy soldiers remained in the three prefectures.

After the expansion of the army was completed, Ao Lie convened a military meeting of 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 military system of the regular army, and divided the 2.4 million regular army into five major armies according to their territory, and guarded in all directions of the Northern Han Dynasty.

The five major legions are: the Northern Legion with Youzhou as the main, Guang, Ming and Tongzhou as the auxiliary, Ao Lie personally served as the first legion commander, followed by Lu Bu and Zhao Yun; the Guanzhong Legion with Guanzhong region as the main, Sanjiao region as the auxiliary and Liangzhou as the auxiliary, Ma Chao as the commander, Pang De, Ma Dai and Zhu Hao as the subordinate; the Southwest Legion with Yizhou as the main and Nanzhong region as the auxiliary, Xu Shu as the commander, Meng Huo as the subordinate; Jingzhou as the main, Jiangdong region as the auxiliary, supplemented by Jiaozhou as the subordinate, Pang Tong as the commander, Zhou Yu and Lu Meng as the subordinate; because Jizhou is located in the center of the battle with Cao Cao, and it is densely populated and rich in economy, Jizhou alone formed a legion called the Hebei Legion, Zhuge Liang deserves to be the first legion commander, Zhang He and Xu Huang as the subordinate.

In addition to their respective local garrisons, each of these five legions commanded 450,000 regular troops in 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 emergency situations, it can support all parties in the shortest time.

Of course, the establishment of the five major legions will inevitably disperse the centralized power. Now the people who control the five major legions are Ao Lie's confidant officials, so naturally they will not be able to hold troops and respect themselves. However, they will not grow old in their lives, 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 let their son Liu Kun deal with the hidden dangers left by themselves. Therefore, Ao Lie is forming the five major legions.

At the same time, the five major legions were also controlled. All the food, grass, military supplies and other materials of these five major legions were uniformly allocated by the court. The five major legions did not have the power to expand the army privately and collect taxes. They had to be approved by the Military Administration and the Government before they could obtain sufficient military expenditure and food. At the same time, Ao Lie also made a regulation that the five major legions were only applicable in wartime. When the war ended, he would reduce the troops of the five major legions and regain the military power to the state.

The establishment of the five major legions officially announced to everyone in the world that the Northern Han had completed the encirclement of the Central Plains. Once the Northern Han is ready, the Northern Han military force, with Ao Lie as the supreme ruler, will inevitably give a thunder blow to Cao Cao's troops in the Central Plains! Complete the great cause of unifying the world!
