Just three days after Pang Wanchun retreated, scattered soldiers appeared outside Pingjiang Mansion one after another. Since it was still in the period of war readiness, and the entire Pingjiang Province was still under martial law, these stragglers were not promised to enter the city. However, from the mouths of these people, Gao Shide got a not very good news, Guan Sheng went deep alone and was besieged by some sections of the Fang Qi Buddha. At present, it can only be used with the help of the geographical topography of Dongting Lake. And most of them were soldiers who were scattered in the collision of the army. Unable to contact the large army for a while, he had to return the same way and come to Pingjiang Mansion. After all, the hundreds of brothers in their group had enough food and grass to carry with them, and Pingjiang Mansion easily funded Guan Sheng's army of 100,000 stone last time. So the soldiers came to try their luck under the leadership of a nimble centurion. Of course, you can't say this on the surface, otherwise it's not good, and the crime of desertion can make these hundreds of people fall to the ground. So they changed their story to ask for help.

"General, these people have asked us to let them into the city and to be able to provide them with food." After some negotiations, the herald reported to Gao Shide.

"A group of deserters also want to go into the city, dreaming." The experienced one-eyed dragon saw through the true details of these people outside the city at a glance, and reprimanded with disdain.

"You'll tell them later that it's because of the recent attack on the city. Pingjiang Prefecture is under martial law in the whole city, and does not dare to let unidentified people enter the city at will. However, seeing that they are fighting bloodily in front of them, we are in humanitarian care, and we can support them with dozens of loads of food. Then let them go, or they will be thieves and go out of the city to exterminate them. Gao Shide said with a smile on his face.

"What do you mean, General?" The one-eyed dragon looked at Gao Shide, who was unfathomable and calm, and he was puzzled, and he didn't know what medicine was sold in Gao Shide's gourd.

"You don't understand, in fact, they are also not fatal. Chosen to be involved in this war with no chance of winning. But that's it, just to buy us time and act as cannon fodder in front. Gao Shide said with a somewhat expectant expression.

"General, do you expect too much from them, what can you do with these few hundred deserters?" The one-eyed dragon had a disapproving expression.

"Invest, invest. Of course there are risks, and I am not optimistic about these people, but on the centurion who can lead them all the way to us. This person has a lot of ability, and he must also be a potential stock. As for the future? Then it's up to them to see if they can survive. In fact, the reason why Gao Shide acted like this was because of his vision of people in his previous life, and the reason why this centurion was called Han Shizhong.

In fact, although these hundreds of people were also one of the troops who were ordered to come to encircle and suppress Fangla's rebels, they were not the Northern Song Dynasty forbidden army, but the Northwest Army, which came to support later. It's a pity that they are different from the forbidden army of Guan Sheng's department, because they are local troops, they are often used as cannon fodder on the front line. This time they were scattered, and it was really helpless. It was Guan Sheng and others who abandoned their troops in order to preserve their strength. Originally, there were only a few dozen people, but Han Shizhong accepted the gathered stragglers along the way, and this was the scale of hundreds of people. After they received dozens of loads of grain and grass from Pingjiang Mansion, Han Shizhong and the others also knew that this was already a little better than expected. After all, no one dared to let people into the city at will during this great war, and now they dare not ask for anything. If you want to go back to be cannon fodder, it is better to go north to join Hu Yanzhuo's army.

But just a few days after they left, there was urgent news from Pingjiang Prefecture. The rebels of Shuibo Liangshan suddenly went south and attacked Hu Yanzhuo's southbound army's grain road. This makes it impossible for Huyanzhuo's army to reach the Jiangnan battlefield normally for a while and a half.

After Gao Shide got this battle report, he frowned. You must know that not long ago, he came from the dark line that Zhujiazhuang was destroyed by the resurgence of Liangshan Shuibo, and now there is another attack on the army's grain road. What is it that gives this Shuibo Liangshan so much courage. After all, he had dismantled several of the main members of the one hundred and eight heroes before himself, and now Shuibo Liangshan still has such strength. This was a big surprise to Gao Shide.

"Do you know who is the leader of the Shuibo Liangshan Flying Bandit who attacked the grain road?" Gao Shide asked with concern.

"It is said that it is a fat monk, and there is a young man with a white horse and a silver gun. As for the specific name and others, I didn't say it in my heart. The one-eyed dragon looked at his master with a slightly puzzled look.

"Fat monk, that eighty percent is that Lu Zhishen, as for who is the white horse silver gun? Who is the flower? Gao Shide said to himself.

"General, who did it seems to have nothing to do with us now. However, there must be a reason why Hu Yanzhuo actually brought this news to us, even a handwritten letter. The one-eyed dragon said with a cautious expression.

"What else can there be, it's not that I'm worried about the food of our Pingjiang Mansion. I heard that not long ago, Fang La's thieves broke through Hangzhou City and entered Huizhou Mansion, and the court is now short of food. Gao Shide sneered and spoke.

"That's not going to happen, the four granaries of the east, west, north and south are still on our side of the imperial court. There should not be a food shortage in ten years, but it may be that we are too generous and close to the battlefield, so they are all paying attention to us. The one-eyed dragon said with a look of great hatred.

"It doesn't matter, there is nothing else in the city now, but when it comes to grain and grass, there are still 300,000 stones. Borrowing another 100,000 stone is a breeze for us. It's just that we also have to start cultivating our strength, after all, the current situation is unstable, and only those who have military power in their hands have the right to speak. I asked you to recruit troops, how's it going?" Gao Shide looked indifferent, turned his head and took a sip of tea, but he mentioned another problem related to himself.

"Now I have initially recruited 3,000 children, many of whom are from the four major families, but I have separated them into their respective camps according to the general's wishes." When the one-eyed dragon heard this, he immediately showed a satisfied smile and said.

"It's so good, and it's going to be hard work. In a month, I will open a general's station in the army. After the last war, Gao Shide suffered from the lack of a general in his hands, and could only be beaten passively, unable to make an effective counterattack. Therefore, he is ready to bring a group of generals from the army, such as the commander of the army, the centurion, the thousand-household, and so on. Set up a point to look for unsuitable warriors and recruit talents. After all, as the old saying goes, if you keep it for a long time, you will lose. At this moment, Gao Shide can't afford to lose.

It seems that Tie Jian is the only one who can fight around him now, and Tie Jian is a killer. Now although he has changed his career to be a bodyguard. But after all, he is good at individual force, but he lacks the experience and ability to fight in groups. And the safety of his life depends on him to protect it, so Gao Shide can't afford to take this risk.

"Your Excellency, have you forgotten where I and the Iron Sword came from?" Looking at Gao Shide's anxious appearance, the one-eyed dragon gave him such an idea.
