Shuibo Dazhai. The remnant sun shone on the lake, and the mighty water turned bloody.

Lin Chong, Yang Zhi and other leaders looked at the golden sand beach below, and tens of thousands of Liangshan people were waiting for a flying pigeon to arrive.

There are also a large number of ships gathered in front of the golden beach, not all of them are warships, or there are very few warships, but more of them are transport ships, cargo ships, and even boats as large as they can carry 100 people, and as small as sentinel boats that can only carry four or five people.

It can be said that Shuibo Dazhai has mobilized all its own transportation capacity this time.

The remaining integrated army in the cottage, except for Xu Ning's department left behind in the cottage, the rest of the men and horses were also dispatched. But this alone is too thin compared to the target they are about to target; Therefore, the Liangshan Army dispatched its own real largest establishment, the Reserve Army.

Compared with the addition of the two infantry regiments, the total strength of the army has 30,000 integrated troops, and the number of reserve troops has exceeded 30,000 early. Those captured Song officers and soldiers were far less loyal to the old Zhao family than Zhang Shuye, Chen Wenzhao, Hu Yanzhuo, and Zhang Qing.

In the heavy labor, few people can last more than half a year.

The treatment of these people after surrendering is naturally not as good as that of the "predecessors", and there are too many people, and the number of them is a headache for Lu Qian. Although Liangshanbo has a lot of income, it is more "satisfying" to break the state capital, but the whole volume is so large. It is impossible to reorganize a regular army of 780,000 or even 100,000 divisions. Look at how much the 30,000 integrated army will cost in a year? That's a big burden. Don't talk about military salaries, just talk about meat consumption, and the pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks eaten by Liangshanbo have reached an extreme point in the production capacity of surrounding prefectures and counties. Even in Jeju Prefecture, there are people who go out to buy pigs and sheep, and then buy them in Yangsanbo, and make a fortune in this way.

If it weren't for the fact that he would be going east to Jiaodong in the summer and autumn of this year, Lu Qian would not even expand the latest two regiments.

As a result, a large number of 'anyway' prisoners of war could only be taken into reserve. At the same time, the threshold for the 'attainment' of prisoners of war was raised, and the threshold for the promotion of integrated non-commissioned officers was raised.

The 30,000 integrated army is not just 30,000 soldiers, the Liangshan Army's soldiers must have two yuan per month, and 30,000 soldiers must have 800,000 yuan a year alone. [Wu Chang added 100 money, Shi Chang price 300, the team rate added money consistently, and both heads added money twice. ] 】

Although the number of auxiliaries does not account for the majority - Yu Ding is 600 Wen, the monthly money of the first class soldier is always 500 Wen, and the monthly money of the second class is consistent, so if you deduct it like this, you can still save a lot of money.

This is already a lot of consumption. Lu Qian's consideration is not only the current Shuibo Liangshan, but also the future Jiaodong. That's just four state capitals, and how much money can be collected a year according to the old Zhao family's 'harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes'? If the reorganized army rises to 50,000 or 60,000, won't all the 'regular income' be used to raise soldiers?

There is a lot of gold and silver in Japan, but the results of gold and silver mining are not visible in a short time. Besides, wouldn't it be effortless to mine gold and silver mines?

Lu Qian wants to think about it all. The so-called: those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a moment; Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain. It's official.

And now, the long-awaited opportunity for these auxiliaries has finally arrived.

Meritorious service on the battlefield is the best opportunity for them to change from a 'militia' to a 'regular army'. Otherwise, just relying on Shuibo Liangshan to repair the earth, decorate the earth, and come to survive day by day, it really makes them despair.

The entire reserve army system is also psychologically calm for the auxiliary soldiers of the Ma Army, because their hopes are obvious to all. Everyone knew that Liang Shanbo was bound to expand the Ma army system.

At present, 35,000 auxiliary soldiers have been pulled out, and 30,000 people are lined up on the golden beach one by one. The brothers Du Qian and Song Wan had a very bright face.

Time passed little by little, the sun completely set the horizon, countless torches were lit on the golden beach, and half of the sky was fiery red.

Hu Yanzhuo looked at the mountain in front of him, looked at the sky that was reflected red, and was silent for a long time. As a military general, he consciously told him that the officers and soldiers were going to be unlucky. The elite of the Liangshan army, he knows. Although the consequences of such a large-scale operation at night were difficult to predict, he was more inclined to the defeat of the officers and troops.

Zhang Qing's expression was also a little abrupt, is the previous district far away from the front village? They weren't at the water's edge, but in the very center of the island, so what was the straight-line distance? Liang Shanbo mobilized troops of such a scale, from beginning to end, except for hearing the sound of horns and drums, he didn't hear a trace of noise from men and horses. "I don't know how many people Lu Qian used this time?"

Hu Yanzhuo listened and said: "Ten thousand have been dispatched before, and even the reserves will be used today, and the number of people is afraid to be twenty or thirty thousand." With the sharpness of Liangshanbo's people, the officials and soldiers are afraid to ...... Unfavourable. ”

As an old qualified prisoner of war, Hu Yanzhuo knew some of the layered structure of Liangshanbo, and after Zong Ze 'anyway', what they knew was clearer.

There are not many regular men in Liangshanbo, but the reserve force is very large. The prisoners of war were supervised to open up the wasteland, build fortifications and houses, etc., all of which were done by the reserves. Moreover, the training of his generation is not as strict as that of his integrated army, but it is not comparable to that of the official army. Among the forces in the first district of the police post were those who belonged to the reserve army, and Hu Yanzhuo could naturally see that they were good.

Ma Xuanzan, the ugly county on the side, listened to Hu Yanzhuo's words, and his face showed doubts: "Why did General Hu Yan say this?" An didn't know if the Liangshan thieves were unfavorable in the front battle, and they mobilized troops and horses to help? ”

Hu Yanzhuo shook his head and smiled bitterly, and Zhang Qing also shook his head. "Xuan Defense doesn't look at the other generation's army standing in the front village, but not triggering?" If the Liangshan army was in a tight situation, how could these soldiers and horses not rush to help? Now it is not triggered, it can only be said that they are waiting for the opportunity, and they will know who is going to suffer.

Praise is not a completely mindless person, a little bit is clear. At the moment, looking at the half of the sky that was red by his eyes, Mu Mu was in a daze.

and Cai Zhen.

The house of a wealthy local family has now become the business of Gao Yu. The former left the steward to take care of the house, but he respectfully gave up the house, fled to Dongchang Mansion with the family, and followed the master.

The master of his family was a man who had seen things well, and went out early to avoid trouble. Before the war has a definite result, Cai will not turn back to Hecai Zhen.

Gao Yu has been in Hecai Town for a few days, but he has never appeared in public. Even if the pride was not revealed, that is, after getting the news that the Liangshanbo army had attacked and killed the Southern Route Army, this side was forgetful.

But even so, he only invited Han Cunbao and Jing Zhong to hold a banquet and have a drink.

Han Cunbao and Jing Zhong naturally knew why Gao Yu was proud, and the two of them were not ignorant people. Then Han Cunbao was born in a big family of eunuchs and a family of hairpins, how could he not recognize the polite compliments in the officialdom? Even if he looked down on Gao Yu in his heart and thought that he was a lucky person, he would never publicly dump Gao Yu's face.

And what about Jing Zhong? In the ten knots, this guy is the most skilled at drilling machines, and when he first saw Gao Yu, he called himself a little general.

"Liangshan Bo thief Kou has already entered the trap, and this is the magic machine of the captain. This kind of clever calculation, DPS dare not admire. Han Cunbao had to bow his head under the eaves, and when he talked to Gao Yu, he was naturally complimented.

The second general drank a few glasses, waited until the banquet, and withdrew from the line, and the literati around Gao Yu said: "Han Cunbao has a deep understanding, is brave and strategic, and if he wishes, he will be able to be the humerus of the Taiwei." But his face is harmonious and high, and he holds his own identity, so he may not be able to easily follow the wishes of the captain. However, the Qinghe Tianshui Festival made Jing Zhong, and his martial arts were also strong, his merits were outstanding, and he was very prestigious, and he was even more respectful to the Taiwei......"

Gao Yu sighed deeply, things in the world are really unsatisfactory nine times out of ten. He sent Wang Huan's old man to Qinghe, and after he didn't take off his head, he was fortunate to find one or two people who were willing to serve among the remaining Jiedu envoys, so that his family could really lay a foundation in the army, so that the supreme in Tokyo City would definitely be happy to see it. But he didn't want Han Cunbao, who he valued the most, to be so ignorant of what to do, which made Gao Yu disappointed.

Here Jing Zhong said goodbye to Han Cunbao with Cai Zhendong, returned to the camp, and received a letter from him not long after. He went to the candlestick and looked at it, and he laughed out loud.

A thousand pieces of gold were not given away in vain. In this sentence, it is worth it if it is ten times more expensive.

"Someone. Go and choose a golden Buddha ......"

After Jing Zhong gave the order, he held the letter and looked at it over and over, with a smile on his face, like a treasure.

It can't be helped. It's true that he is good at drilling, but if he can, he doesn't want to praise Gao Yu's stinky feet. In comparison, Tong Guan's eunuch's feet are more fragrant than him. But there is no way, Tianshui Qinzhou is too poor. If he changed to a place like Jiangxia, Hanzhong, and Taiyuan, he wouldn't be so tasteless.

From the green forest to the battlefield, he has been rolling in officialdom for half a lifetime, why is Jing Zhong unwilling to ask for face?

It's a pity that he, as a festival envoy, uses a hot face to make Tong Guan's cold ass, and Tong Guan will also dislike him for being warm.

This section made the soldiers and horses seem to be a military 'municipality', which is directly under the control of the privy envoy, or the emperor. The establishment of a jiedu envoy in Qinzhou was in itself to insert a wedge in the western army. How dare Jing Zhong flatter Tong Guan? That is, a person of Gao Yu's status seems to be an extension of the emperor's will, so he can get closer.

Countless torches lit up on the mighty water, densely packed with more than the stars in the sky.

Thousands of ships of different sizes, loaded with more than 40,000 Liangshan infantry cavalry, seemed to be a huge monster, pouring out of the water and rushing towards He Cai Zhen.

Liangshanbo, which was shrouded in night, seemed to suddenly burn a fire cloud, and the sky was bright.

The leopard head Lin Chong is the leader, and the subordinate Qin Ming, Yang Zhi, Suo Chao, and Luan Tingyu are the main force of the army. Then there is the reserve army with a number of 30,000 people, including Hu Sanniang, Hu Cheng, Jiang Zhong, Yang Lin, Tang Long, Meng Kang, and Yuan Lang. Then there are the Manichaean cadres, etc.

In the battle of Shigou Town, Lu Qian only asked for Cheng Gui and Xie Fu, two generals, and the remaining cadres of the Manichaean Sect, except for Fang Tianding and Bai Qin, who were around Lin Chong, were now all placed in the reserve army as leaders.

From day to night and from night to day.

There are two hundred miles between the north and south of Liangshanbo, and if you want to row a boat from Dazhai directly to Hecai Town, there are still so many boats, and there is really not much time in a day. Although they took advantage of the night to slowly approach Hecai Town, Gao Yu had already received an urgent battle report from the Southern Route Army.

All, all the good moods, all, all the reverie, like bubbles in the sun, although extremely beautiful, but also so fragile. Once it shatters, there is not a single residue left.

The Southern Route Army was defeated. After fighting for a day, the Jinling Sailor and the Thief Kou Sailor were blocked in the water camp. The land camp was broken, and the Liangshan army was attacked on two sides, and the Jinling Naval Division was annihilated. Only the commander Liu Menglong and the commander Zhang Gongyu and so on, few survived.

Yang Wen and Xiang Yuanzhen lost most of their troops, even Jeju City did not dare to go, and they had led troops to retreat to Rencheng. The Liangshan thieves were in desperate need of reinforcements.

"Reinforcements?" Gao Yu's angry laughter made Han Cunbao and Jing Zhong hear it, and goosebumps all over their bodies.
