"Among the Xiongnu we captured, there must be quite a few women!"

Liu Wei frowned and asked Guo Luo beside him.

“My lord, that goes without saying. When Lieutenant Xue launched a surprise attack on Yufuluo and captured Shanwu, we captured 20,000 Xiongnu women and children.”

"Although three thousand were exchanged with the Xiongnu that day."

Guo Luo immediately replied, "But when the flood came that day, the troops went out to clear the battlefield and captured nearly a thousand Xiongnu women and children."

"Aside from the elderly and children, there are at least five or six thousand young women!"

"They're all quite plump and robust, hehehe!"

Upon hearing Liu Wei ask this question, he immediately concluded that the Marquis would definitely arrange for these Hu women to run brothels in the government to keep the soldiers in high spirits.

He would be the first to visit the place the day it was established.

Who wouldn't want to be those women's first man?

In the two months since following Liu Wei, Guo Luo has accumulated quite a bit of silver. Why not spend it and let it rust in his pocket?

"Just tell me roughly how many women, that's all. Why are you chuckling?"

Liu Wei knew what Guo Luo was thinking when he saw the wicked smile on his face.

Guo Luo wasn't too embarrassed that Liu Wei had seen through his thoughts:

"My lord, you know, we..."

"Confucius said, 'Food and sex are human nature, and it is only natural for people to be like this!' It is I who have neglected everyone's basic needs!"

Liu Wei waved his hand, "You go and tell each of the captains in the Great Wall Legion that we'll resolve this issue once the strategist returns!"

"Tell those soldiers who want to visit brothels to hold off for now, and not to spend all their money."

Upon hearing this, Guo Luo asked in surprise, "Lord Marquis, do you really intend to open a brothel?"

"I volunteer to take charge of this. I will make sure that you, my lord, will make a fortune."

Running a brothel?

Who said I was going to open a brothel!

Liu Wei looked exasperated.

"After several major battles, the Xiongnu people were left with nine out of ten households empty, and many women were left alone in their rooms."

"When the strategist returns from Meiji, he will surely bring back many women and children."

"Such a large number of widows, as well as young women from the Xiongnu, are just the right amount to settle them."

As soon as Liu Wei finished speaking, Guo Luo excitedly exclaimed, "My lord, if we don't run a brothel, does that mean we'll give the soldiers wives for free?"

"Freedom of choice! I want the bloodline of the Han Dynasty to assimilate the women of the Xiongnu!"

"This is also another battlefield where I recovered the four commanderies of Yunzhong and drove out the Xiongnu."

"It all depends on whether we, the strong men of the Han Dynasty, are strong enough to prevent the foreigners from ruining our fields."

Liu Wei said calmly.

In fact, he had already made such a plan.

After several major battles, the Xiongnu suffered heavy casualties among their men, leaving behind a large number of women and children.

The question of how these women handled things had long been swirling in Liu Wei's mind.

The points accumulated in the system are now very valuable, and Liu Wei is not so extravagant as to directly exchange them for people.

He also needs to continuously arm himself and enhance his military strength.

With a powerful army as its backing, the four counties of Yunzhong were all under its control, making them impregnable.

Liu Wei then exchanged people for land so that they could cultivate the land, reproduce, and survive.

The Great Wall Legion now has 13,000 men, plus Li Su's 3,000 men, for a total of 16,000 men.

These 16,000 people were all strong and healthy men from the Central Plains.

Once Liu Wei had a general idea in mind, he decided to organize a large-scale matchmaking event.

These soldiers and Xiongnu women were allowed to choose each other freely.

Without men, Xiongnu women could hardly survive.

Moreover, in the world of the Xiongnu, women were like assets.

The eldest brother died, and his wife's younger brother inherited the family business.

These Xiongnu women would surely not have missed the sight of soldiers who were fair-skinned, strong, and exuded hormones.

Compared to the unkempt, smelly Xiongnu men who only bathed three times in their lives, weren't these Han soldiers much better?

As for the elderly and children, Liu Wei doesn't have a good solution yet.

Presumably, that wicked monk Yao Guangxiao will have a better solution.

"Let these strong and muscular men slaughter all the Xiongnu men and conquer the Xiongnu women as well!"

Once he made up his mind, Liu Wei felt much better, as if he had solved a major problem.

"My lord, are you... are you telling the truth? We're going to prepare to send out wives?"

Guo Luo and Yang Yi both got excited, "Will it be possible for us twenty old brothers to get wives then?"

“You people who followed me from Luoyang, especially the two of you, are you so short-sighted and so indiscriminate in your choices?”

"As my personal guards, you should at least marry a princess from a foreign tribe."

Seeing their eager expressions, Liu Wei felt a surge of contempt.

"The princess is for the marquis; we ordinary women are content!" The two laughed and joked.

"Useless! Don't ever say you're my guard again."

"However, you two are quite loyal, knowing to leave the princess to me, haha!"

......

Just as Liu Wei and his two bodyguards were disguised and observing the people's conditions.

Yao Guangxiao, leading Li Su's fully armed 3,000 troops, has already left Shanwu.

They sped along at breakneck speed, heading straight for Meiji.

These three thousand soldiers were handed over to Yao Guangxiao to lead. After being equipped, they immediately stimulated Yao Guangxiao's innate talent for training.

The three thousand men quickly acquired the combat skills of the Three Thousand Battalion, one of the five elite forces of the Ming Dynasty.

These two-star unit templates are naturally much stronger than one-star units.
