"Or why don't that kid go to the front line?" Liu Hong was also hesitating. Huangfu Song felt that he had changed in the past two years. He was originally close to him, but it seemed to be getting further and further away recently.

Liu Ge's performance on the front line was average, he had no mistakes or made any outstanding contributions. He originally wanted to cultivate a second Liu Tao, but it probably wouldn't be possible.

"Your Majesty, it's already winter..." Zhang Rang advised carefully, "Whether it is our side or the rebels, we have to temporarily stop the offensive. At this time, it may be fine to change generals, but it is unlikely to continue the attack."

"It's... winter is coming in a blink of an eye." Liu Hong sighed. It's almost November, and the weather is not too cold, so I can't feel it.

In more than a month, the Chinese New Year will be almost over. This year suddenly feels like it’s going through so fast.

"How to deal with Liu Tao's situation?" Liu Hong immediately changed the topic.

It seems that there is no reward for defeating Xianbei for the first time. Now it is the second time, I can’t say that I won’t give it any reward. After all, Xianbei was delivered to me by myself, and it was not Liu Tao who took the initiative to attack others.

As the general of Zhenbei, he is responsible for defending the territory. If others come to the door, of course he has to take the initiative to deal with it. Do you have to wait for the tiger talisman to pass before sending troops?

Especially this time, another 500 war horses were sent, with one thousand in front and one after another. If you think about it carefully, there is really no border general who will send horses to the court in turn. Generally, it is good if you don’t cry and you don’t cry.

"I think General Zhenbei did not submit a memorial to the point that he had recruited a military officer named Lu Bu in Wuyuan County and appointed him as General Pingdi... The court might as well issue a document to recognize his identity, how about it?" Zhang Rang thought for a while and said.

After all, basically, the court does not need to spend a penny, which is the most cost-effective way.

The side effects are not missing, that is, it is equivalent to admitting that the position of General Zhenbei is indeed above the commanders of the border counties. However, whether Liu Hong would react was not responsible for this.

"General Pingdi... I really remembered you when you say that." Liu Hong complained, "That guy really takes his General Zhenbei seriously, and he can actually appoint a general directly."

"Your Majesty can also scold him, and then win these two times, which will be considered as a demerit for him." Zhang Rang said with a smile.

"This is OK. It is inevitable that he will be overly proud of himself at a young age. Even if he wants to become a new general of the cavalry, I don't want him to die young like Huo Piqi." Liu Hong nodded, and he still wanted to beat him.

He paused and continued to ask, "There is the Liangzhou..."

"It is not convenient to go south in the past two months. It is better to decide whether to send him there after spring or in February and March next year based on the situation on the front line?" Zhang Rang had no good idea, so he could only drag him down first.

Anyway, in winter, neither side can fight a war, and even if Liu Tao is transferred to the front line, it will be useless and will waste military rations.

"Well, let's keep it for next year!" Liu Hong nodded when he heard this, more of an expectation. Huangfu Song and others will be able to be a little more successful at the beginning of next year.

A few days later, the edict from Luoyang was sent back, almost when the spoils and heads were sent to Luoyang.

"Congratulations to lord!" Seeing this edict, Guo Jia immediately congratulated Liu Tao. He naturally saw clearly what the edict meant. Liu Tao directly controlled the border troops of Wuyuan, Dingxiang and Yanmen counties, and was just around the corner!

"Congratulations to the lord!" Everyone else looked at Guo Jia, then looked at Liu Tao. After confirming that Liu Tao was very happy, even if he was unclear, they all came forward to congratulate him.

"According to this edict, I, the general of Zhenbei, surpassed the commanders of the border troops of each county in the true sense. When necessary, I can even try to subdue them and use them for my own use!" Liu Tao said with a smile. Who would think that he had great power?

He explained that, and then everyone suddenly realized and looked happy. The lord's power increased, and the power of these people naturally increased with the rise.

"Fengxian, your General Pingdi's talisman and documents have been officially issued." Liu Tao then took out the things and handed them to Lu Bu. This thing cannot be made privately, so although Lu Bu had the identity of General Pingdi before, he did not have a seal.

"Thank you lord!" Lu Bu thanked Liu Tao respectfully. He felt a little more at ease when he actually got the seal. Although he had actual command before, he had no seal, so he was a little uneasy.

Not only Lu Bu's General Pingdi seal, but also Liu Tao's application for General Huwei's seal was also sent. This was for Guan Yu. Guan Yu's military affairs in four counties, and the status of the captain was not very good enough.

The most detrimental part of this reward was that the court did not give any rewards except for these nominal things.

Fortunately, Liu Tao selected two thousand bad horses to the seized war horses and entrusted Zhang to help sell them. The money earned was directly distributed as a reward. As for the weapons and leather armor of the Xianbei cavalry, half of them were sent to Zhang Yan, and after some of them were repaired, they were sold to local big players, making another profit.

The big families in the border counties are good. Others store antiques, and they store weapons and equipment. If it weren't for the public security issues, Liu Tao really planned to sell all the weapons and leather armor to them.

Not only are the big families, but the people of the border counties are also martial. Even if they are poor, they will choose to buy a dagger or a short knife. Weapons and armors with conditions, and even bows and arrows will be prepared, so as not to have no room for resistance when the Xianbei attacks.

Liu Tao felt that it was not just the border counties, but the people close to the mountains, such as Mount Tai and Danyang. There were few arable land or many thieves, so the people had to practice martial arts in order to protect themselves. The so-called martial arts were actually forced by the environment.

"It seems that the court has not yet agreed..." Then he looked at the content of the imperial edict, and there was no content from Liangzhou at all. Liu Tao was somewhat dissatisfied.

"This is too anxious. Perhaps it's just because winter is coming, so the court feels that there is no need to transfer us here at this time." Xun Yu stepped forward and said.

"It is also possible that I plan to give Huangfu Song's troops another opportunity to perform well. Judging from this memorial, the court has recognized the lord's ability. If nothing unexpected happens next year, we should have the opportunity to perform." Guo Jia smiled.

"Since that's the case, after you go back, prepare according to the standards of sending troops next year. Don't neglect the training of soldiers. Don't be complacent just because you won two games!" Liu Tao reminded.

After all, the current combat power of the army is largely supported by his magic. Another part of it was Xianbei who did not expect that the cavalry under his command could not only be able to ride and shoot, but also have significantly improved their collision ability, so he suffered a great loss.

If you take such a battle a few more times, the other party will probably be able to fully adapt, and if there is enough survivor to escape.

"Lord!" When he said that, Jian Yong hurried over, "Beiyu sent a letter saying that the Xianbei leader Bu Dugen hoped to talk to the lord on the Beiyu..."
