Luokoucang is also called Xingluocang, which is located at the mouth of Luoshui into the Yellow River. Bubble-book_ bar Xingluocang was built in the second year of the great cause. The year before, that is, at the same time as the construction of the eastern capital Luoyang, a Hanjiacang had been built in the east of Luoyang Palace. At that time, it was a good year of abundant grain, and Yang Guang felt that a granary was not enough, so he ordered the construction of this Xingluo warehouse on the southeast plain of Gongxian County.

More than 20 miles around Xingluocang, there are 3,000 grain cellars, each cellar can store 8,000 stones of grain, so that the total grain storage has reached more than 24 million stones. A large part of the rice transported from the southeast is stored here, so it can be transported to Luoyang and Daxing to the west; When the army is used in the northeast, it can transport grain across the Yellow River and transport it to the northeast through the Yongji Canal.

Luokoucang can be said to be not only the peripheral granary of Luoyang, the eastern capital, but also the military grain transfer station in the northeast, and its position in this dynasty is extremely important. In order to guard the largest granary of this dynasty, Luokoucang not only built a warehouse city around it, but also placed a supervisor and a thousand soldiers to guard it.

When Cheng Yanjin was leading the people over Fang Mountain, when he saw Li Mi beaming in front of him, he couldn't help but recall the extremely idiotic Zhai Rang in his mind. When the leaders in the camp were discussing, Zhai Rang was able to say the words of letting Li Mi be the master of the arrangement and he came to the palace. Cheng Yanjin has seen many people in his life, but it is the first time he has seen someone who is so idiotic as Zhai Rang.

Isn't Zhai Rang saying this tantamount to handing over the power of the coach? This idiot doesn't want to think about it, although you know that you don't have the ability, but Li Mi has! As the titular chieftain, you can order Li Mi to do this while you sit back and enjoy the consequences. How can you just leave it alone because you can't do it!

Li Mi nominally respects Zhai Rang as the chief leader, but in fact, he wishes he would give up his power! No, not to mention that people were arranged to attack Xingluocang, Li Mi also followed in person. Cheng Yanjin admires Li Mi very much, as the saying goes, 'wealth and danger are sought', if you want to get ahead, how can you do it without taking some risks!

The leaders of Xingluocang knew the meaning of the victory, and this was really a good opportunity to make a name for themselves, so everyone rushed to fight. However, the most important thing in this operation is to require concealment, and the soldiers sent out must also be veterans of the battlefield who can fight well, so as to increase the chances of capturing Xingluocang.

And when it comes to the elite of soldiers, which leader's subordinates can compare with Cheng Yanjin's men? The nearly two thousand martial arts masters pulled it out and scared them to death. Therefore, with a wave of Li Mi's hand, Cheng Yanjin and all the masters of the Wind Department under him all entered the ranks of the expedition.

It's just that Li Mi is still not at ease with such a little person, and it is impossible to let Cheng Yanjin take it all alone, otherwise the other leaders will not make a fuss. So Li Mi simply transferred some extremely warlike soldiers from those leaders, forming a team of more than 7,000 people.

These more than 7,000 elite soldiers avoided the Tiger Prison Pass guarded by Pei Renji, detoured to Yangcheng from the south of Xingyang, crossed Fangshan, and went straight to Xingluocang from the direction of Luokou. Along the way, opening roads in the mountains and building bridges in the water, the difference between the martial arts masters and ordinary soldiers under Cheng Yanjin was clearly apparent.

With a few footholds, these martial arts masters used their internal strength, and the steep hillside turned over. Is there a cliff in front of you, not high, jump down, and then a group of people will look down at the ordinary soldiers behind them and slowly climb down like turtles. I don't know how deep the river is in front of me, so I jumped over it in one breath. The soldiers in the back were helpless, so they had to send a few people who knew how to go down to explore the way.

The performance of the Wind Department along the way made the eyes of several leaders jealous, so many martial arts masters, they are really good helpers for killing people and setting fires, and robbing houses! Li Mi was even more envious, and as soon as he was free, he ran over to gossip with Cheng Yanjin and pull feelings.

To say that this Li Mi is really a smart person, it didn't take two days to see that these martial arts masters were extremely desperate for Cheng Yanjin, except for Cheng Yanjin, everyone else was not a bird. Therefore, during this time, Li Mi's main energy was focused on winning over Cheng Yanjin, and that posture seemed to be unwilling to give up if Cheng Yanjin was not wooed over.

How did Li Mi know that these martial arts masters just seemed to be loyal to Cheng Yanjin, but in fact, a large part of them were undercover spies sent by various forces, who were specifically responsible for lurking around Cheng Yanjin to find out the whereabouts of Jiuding.

This is their first priority, so they naturally have to cooperate with Cheng Yanjin in an all-round way to win trust and listen to information. In fact, most of the martial arts masters who were really loyal to Cheng Yanjin were hidden in their hometowns by him, and only a few leaders were left with Cheng Yanjin for him to call. Seeing Li Mi doing useless work every day, Cheng Biting Jin didn't say anything, but enjoyed his flattery with some joy in his heart.

As for the other leaders, like Wang Bodang, Shan Xiongxin and others, they used their status as martial arts masters to stay among those people in the Wind Department all day long, promising all kinds of huge profits, and wanted to pull these martial arts masters to work for themselves, but after saying all the good things, these martial arts masters did not show any interest. The journey came to an end in the antics of these people.

Xingluocang originally had thousands of guards, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, when setting off this time, Li Mi not only asked the team to keep their whereabouts hidden along the way, but also after arriving at Xingluocang, he did not take advantage of the large number of people to kill openly, but asked the team to set off on the third watch, lurk under the city of Xingluocang, and wait for the fifth watch to raid.

Li Mi didn't distrust the seven thousand elite soldiers selected, in fact, just the nearly two thousand martial arts masters led by Cheng Yanjin were enough to wipe out the defenders here, but Li Mi asked for foolproof, after all, this is the granary, if there are so many fish that slipped through the net during the battle, set fire to the warehouse, and burn the grain in the granary, then this time everyone will come in vain, and the idea of expanding the team is impossible to talk about.

On the way here, Li Mi had already told several leaders about his intentions. With these 7,000 elite soldiers, he captured Xingluocang, and then immediately opened the warehouse to release grain, recruited manpower, and waited for the opportunity to attack Luoyang and seize the world. All of this premise was based on the availability of a large amount of grain stored in the Xingluo warehouse, so the battle was not large, but it was crucial.

At the fifth watch, Cheng Biting Jin gave an order, and dozens of martial arts masters who were ambushed under the city wall immediately quietly touched the city wall and knocked down the soldiers who were patrolling the night. Then, thousands of martial arts masters of the Wind Rush Department jumped up at the same time with the signal on the city wall, and jumped on the high city wall in an instant.

Then, the closed city gate was quietly opened, and just as those ordinary soldiers rushed in, Cheng Yanjin had already led the masters of the Wind Department to the grain cellar. As for the more than 1,000 officers and soldiers stationed in the city, there are ordinary soldiers to deal with, and all Cheng Yanjin has to do is to ensure the safety of these grain cellars so as not to be damaged.

By the time the officers and soldiers in charge of guarding the city noticed it, they had been surrounded by the rebels, and the grain cellar was also occupied by Cheng Yanjin intact. Xingluo Cang's general Bing Yuanzhen was caught off guard and had to lead the crowd to surrender.

It was so easy to capture the granary, which is known as the first in this dynasty, and everyone was overjoyed. However, just when Li Mi triumphantly accepted the congratulations of the leaders, Cheng Yanjin sent someone to report that all the grain cellars in Xingluo Cang had been counted, and nearly half of them were empty.

Li Mi hurriedly summoned Bing Yuanzhen, the general of Xingluocang, to inquire, only to learn that there had been a great drought in the world in recent years, and the grain harvest had failed, but Xingluocang did not put a drop of grain, but shipped out a lot, most of which were transported to Yangzhou by waterway for today's consumption.

Although there are only more than 10 million stone of grain in the granary, it is already a brilliant result for the Wagang army. As soon as the sky was bright, Li Mi ordered that except for Cheng Yanjin's men and horses who were responsible for guarding Xingluocang, all the other men and horses rushed around and told the people in all directions to open warehouses and release grain.

Suddenly, the people of the four townships helped the old and the young, carried baskets and burdens, and flocked to Xingluocang. That huge momentum, not to mention Cheng Yanjin and others, even Li Mi didn't expect it. Although everyone has long known that this opening of the warehouse to release grain and help the poor will definitely be supported by the people of the Quartet, what everyone didn't expect was that there were too many people who heard the news.

In just a few days, nearly half of the grain in Xingluocang was released, which was more than 6 million stone of grain! Seeing the yellow and thin faces of the people who came to the swarm, Cheng Yanjin, who was in charge of distributing the grain, immediately ordered the man to line up more than a dozen cauldrons in the open space in front of the granary, and make the raw rice into mature rice.

Cheng Yanjin's kind deed suddenly made Li Mi greatly admired, but he appreciated it from another angle: in the past, when Yang Xuangan raised troops to besiege Luoyang, he opened a warehouse to release grain and help the people. As a result, the imperial court thought that Yang Xuangan opened the granary of the imperial court, and those people who received Yang Xuangan's rice millet were fornicating with Yang Xuangan and were also traitors. So the imperial court conducted door-to-door investigations around Luoyang, and tied up all the people who had received rice millet to the south of the city and buried them alive.

But now Cheng bites the gold and lets these people who came to receive rice eat first, which is equivalent to nailing them with the mark of Wagang. After all, there was only one person in the family who came to receive the rice, but the family members who came with them all ate this fragrant cooked rice. And after eating the food of the righteous army, then it is naturally a person who belongs to the righteous army. Because of this, Li Mi admired Cheng Yanjin very much, thinking that these people were tied to the chariot of the Wagang Army by Cheng Yanjin in a daze.

Although it is true that after eating the fragrant rice, many people thought that they would be able to have a good meal after following the Wagang Army, with big fish and meat, so they joined the Wagang Army. The team of the Wagang Army has also expanded from more than 7,000 to more than 100,000 in a short period of time, and if you count the team left in Xingyang, the number of the Wagang Army can be regarded as the most powerful rebel army in the country today.

Although he made an important contribution to the expansion of the Wagang Army, Cheng Yanjin's praise for Li Mi was laughing and crying, his intentions were good, but after Li Mi's explanation, the taste completely changed. Fortunately, Li Mi said this to Cheng Yanjin in private, if it was known by several other leaders, they wouldn't have to drown Cheng Yanjin with spit.

The capture of Xingluocang greatly boosted the momentum of the Wagang army, and those who surrendered to the army came from all directions. Among them, there were not only small groups of rebels, but also ordinary people who were originally peaceful and honest, and even officials who were originally appointed by the imperial court. Among them, Sucheng County, Qingzhou, ordered Zu Junyan to rebel from the imperial court and led his men and horses to return to the Shunyi Army, which made the prestige of the Wagang Army as high as the sky, and it was unique for a while.
