"Big brother, according to our brothers in the cult, the Yanzhou governor, Liu Dai, has recently recruited soldiers from various counties to deal with a group of bandits from Liangshan!”
After hearing his little brother's words, the yellow-robed Daoist priest frowned and muttered to himself.
"A group of bandits? Did the governor of Yanzhou need to go through so much trouble to mobilize the troops of the various counties of Yanzhou? It seemed that there was still some secret!”
Thinking of this, the yellow-robed man said to his subordinates.
"Go investigate again. You must find out the background of this group of bandits on Liangshan. If they are really heroes, you can help the great teacher!”
After hearing his big brother's words, the man immediately went to investigate!
After his subordinate left, the yellow-robed Taoist priest thought for a moment. In the end, he took out a set of brush and ink from his pocket and wrote a letter.
"Honorable teacher, disciple Ma Yuanyi discovered that Yanzhou governor Liu Dai had raised an army in Puyang today. After investigating, he discovered that Liangshan…"
……
On the other side, Liu Yu was currently pondering on how to improve his strength in Liangshan.
After a month of development, the Liang Mountain army had reached 15,000 people, and there were infantry, cavalry, and navy!
There were many more generals under him. If Lu Bu came again, he would definitely be in big trouble.
However, there was one more thing that troubled Liu Yu the most. In less than a year, the three Julu brothers, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao, would raise the flag of rebellion!
At that time, eight out of the thirteen provinces of Great Han would fall into a state of war.
Whether it was the Yellow Turban Army or the Han Army, they would definitely attack Liangshan in the end.
It was natural for the officers and soldiers to exterminate the bandits, but in the early stages, the Yellow Turban Army was unstoppable and almost broke into Luoyang!
Then, Liu Yu, who was located in Puyang, would naturally bear the brunt.
How could others be allowed to sleep soundly beside the bed? Therefore, whether it was the Yellow Turban Army or the Han Army, they would definitely attack him at that time.
Liu Yu had always understood that he had to be wary of danger in times of peace. That was why he wanted to rely on his mere 15,000 soldiers to resist the upcoming Yellow Turban uprising!
That was really not enough!
Of course, Liu Yu was not without an advantage. Just by relying on the thousand-mile moored land, if the other party did not have more than a thousand warships, they would not be able to enter this Golden Sand Beach.
Not to mention, he had to fight his way into Liangshan!
However, the most important thing was that Liu Yu hoped that after the Yellow Turban uprising ended, the tens of thousands of Yellow Turban bandits would be excellent soldiers.
At the very least, he could contribute to the growth of Liangshan. Otherwise, with Liu Yu's reputation, how could ordinary people join him?
If he wanted to quickly increase his strength, he had to recruit the defeated Yellow Turban Army. In this way, he would inevitably become enemies with Huangfu Song, Zhu Rong, and the others.
Moreover, grain was the most important thing!
……
Therefore, after thinking about all this, Liu Yu felt like his head was going to explode. Being the king of a mountain was already so annoying. One could imagine what kind of situation that feudal lord was in!
Therefore, it was impossible to be a duke. He was just a mountain king!
With that thought, Liu Yu immediately gathered his generals and held a meeting in the Hall of Righteousness!
As the three drums sounded, the leaders of the various ranks came to the Hall of Righteousness and took their seats.
Liu Yu sat on the main seat and looked around at Dian Wei, Xiong Kuohai, Guan Sheng, Lin Chong, and the others below. He also had a pleased expression on his face as he spoke.
"Brothers, now that my Mount Liang is flourishing, there are more than 30,000 people and soldiers in the mountain. However, the problem of rations has become my brother's worry!”
"Since ancient times, if you want to raise an army, you must first have commoners to produce. Generally speaking, dozens of commoners can only feed one soldier.”
"However, the ratio of soldiers to commoners in Liangshan is 1:1. In other words, it is absolutely insufficient for a commoner to support a soldier!”
"Therefore, our top priority is to recruit the people and find food!”
After Liu Yu finished speaking, all the generals nodded their heads. After which, Lin Chong pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Big brother, we obtained tens of thousands of stones of grain from the Li Residence. According to the current population of Liangshan, we can last for more than a few months.”
"At that time, my Liangshan will be completely self-sufficient. Moreover, judging from the current situation of the people going up the mountain, there is enough food. Why is brother so anxious?”
Liu Yu could not help but sigh when he heard Lin Chong's words.
"That being said, the world will undergo a great change in a year. At that time, whoever has food will have a population!”
"My Liang Mountain is located in a corner after all, and naturally cannot be compared to those prefectures. If the army comes to attack my Liang Mountain in the future, how will we deal with the enemy when we lack rations and soldiers?”
After hearing Liu Yu's words, the generals finally understood. Guan Sheng stroked his beard and said.
"Big brother, since that's the case, why don't we use all the gold and silver we obtained from the Li Residence to buy food?”
