Chapter 165: Bocai's Military Order

2,000 horses, 300,000 arrows, 3,000 bows, 500 crossbows, and 30,000 stones of grain and grass.

Let's not look at those armaments, just talk about the 30,000 stone of grain, in this situation where the price of grain is higher day by day, to be able to take out 30,000 stone of grain in one go and transport it, the meaning contained in this is very significant.

"Uncle doesn't need to be like this, although the two parties have not yet married, but you are my Zhen's uncle, this will not change. And I'm just a small steward of the Zhen Chamber of Commerce. If you are so polite, you have tormented the old slave. The steward returned with trepidation.

It can be seen that he should be an old steward who has been cultivated by the Zhen family for many years, and it is even very likely that he was bought back by the Zhen Chamber of Commerce at a very young age, and he focused on cultivating after giving his name and surname Zhen, which is why he has this absolute loyal character today.

It doesn't have to be like this to make Zhen Yi feel at ease and let him lead the team to deliver supplies, after all, the relationship between the two sides is very sensitive.

"Then you're welcome...... There is still a shortage of food in the army, and it can be traded as much as it can. Also, if you can, be sure to help get some farming tools and cattle, and the price will be agreed upon. As for us, there are indeed some materials that need to be sold, and I hope that the steward will come over and evaluate the price! Fang Yun thought about it and immediately told him frankly.

"This is not a problem, I hope my uncle will take the old slave over to have a look!" The steward replied with a smile.

The transaction between the two sides went very smoothly, and the materials seized by Fang Yun along the way were quickly evaluated, and the details of the transaction began to be agreed. In this regard, Xie Yuan came forward, but it took more than ten minutes to make the steward think that he was inferior. I also admired Xie Yuan's negotiation skills.

After the transaction between the two parties is left with a certain floating price. The steward also carried a full load of supplies. Start the return trip.

30,000 stone of grain sounds like a lot, but in fact, the total number of the Yellow Turban Army is as high as 200,000 now, which is still a tree that can only be reached by Bocai after he planned to settle a group of family camps and wounded soldiers.

Today, among the 200,000 Yellow Turban Army, 120,000 are from the family camp, and the remaining 80,000 are second-line and first-line soldiers. Even if serving one meal a day would reduce the amount consumed, 200,000 people would consume at least 1,500 koku of food in a day.

Is 30,000 a lot? In fact, if you calculate it, it will be enough to support it for about 20 days. However, Fang Yun had also seized a lot of grain before, and it was about 80,000 stones, which was enough to support the consumption of about three months.

Considering this time, some of the family camps will be arranged to live in the surrounding villages, which will naturally reserve some food for them. So it is enough for more than a month's expenses. However, after a month, the consumption will start to decrease, and the daily consumption will remain at about 800 stones.

If you don't know that food and grass are consumed quickly. I really admire the power of mobilizing more than 300,000 troops at every turn in the novels I have read before. I don't know where their food and grass come from.

"Strategist, do you think we can consider attacking Luoyang first, or going north to support friendly forces...... Fang Yun asked tentatively.

"This is a plan made by Zhang Jiao, I'm afraid that Qu Shuai and the deputy general won't be able to pass it, right?" Xi Zhicai shook his head.

In his words, he was from the perspective of the Yellow Turban Army, and the hidden meaning meant that if Fang Yun wanted to go north, then there would be no problem. Or, if you can get Bocai or Vice Admiral Peng to agree.

In fact, from the perspective of the greatest interests, Xi Zhi is Fang Yun's military advisor, and he considers the problem from his standpoint. Therefore, after calculating the gains and losses, he felt that it was better for Fang Yun to continue to act independently, which would be safer.

"Where can I go without Qu Shuai's order?" Fang Yun smiled bitterly.

Each Yellow Turban Army Qu Shuai has his own war zone, and now there is a fake Yellow Turban, if there is no token of Bo Cai, then as long as he enters other war zones, then there is no way to prove his identity, and naturally he will not be recognized by other Qu Shuai.

At this point, Fang Yun seemed to understand a little, the fake yellow turban seems to be not just to discredit the reputation of the Yellow Turban Army, but the greater significance is to cut off the possibility of the Yellow Turban Army in all theaters of war to support friendly forces across the theater of operations.

Of course, there is a premise for this, that is, all troops follow Zhang Jiao's plan to carry out tactical arrangements. However, this in itself is not a problem, after all, the 'leader' of an uprising in the form of a religious organization has such prestige in itself.

Everything has been taken into account...... is worthy of a family, and will not let the Yellow Turban Army out of its control......

But if you really count it, you are a guy who is really out of control. But in their opinion, the self who merged with the headquarters should have returned to the controllable range, right?

It's disgusting to think that your every move may be under the attention and control of the family......

"It may not be like this, speaking of which, Qu Shuai woke up and called you over!" A familiar voice came, and when the two turned around in the direction of the sound, they found that Vice General Peng didn't know when he was already in front of him.

"Master is awake?!" Fang Yun was more concerned about this.

"Although the spirit is still very sluggish, but it is back to normal, I have to say that Qu Shuai has you, a disciple with superb medical skills, it is really the greatest blessing in his life." Peng Tuo said with a smile.

Knowing that Bo Cai had woken up and that he still had something to look for, Fang Yun naturally wouldn't stay for long. After saying goodbye to Peng Tuo, he hurriedly entered the handsome tent, only to see that Zhou Cang had already come here first, and was waiting for Bo to drink porridge.

"Oh, you're here......" Bo Cai swallowed his mouthful of corn porridge, looking at Fang Yun's eyes full of kindness and love.

In fact, the ages of the two sides are about the same, and Bo Cai is about ten years older than Fang Yun. However, due to the relationship between the master and the apprentice on both sides, it was equivalent to the role of father and son in ancient times, so it is not surprising that he has such an expression.

"Master, are you awake?" Fang Yun also asked with concern.

Bocai still has a lot of toxins, and it will take five days to eliminate toxins even if he is desperate. Now that he is in such a sober state, it is actually too reluctant.

"I think it's time to wake up, or I'm going to be too sorry for you...... Before, I was infected with 'fairy water', and I said a lot of excessive things, but I hope you don't feel weird. "Bocai is like a child who makes mistakes and knows his mistakes, and apologizes very seriously.

"Master's situation at that time was quite special, and it was normal to talk nonsense." Fang Yun smiled, indicating that he didn't care.

"Let's not talk about that...... While I still have the strength to give you a new military order, you can accept it! Bo Cai smiled and motioned for Zhou Cang to bring the things over.

Not long after, Fang Yun was there in Zhou Cang and took over the new letter of appointment. Looking at Bo Cai's hopeful eyes, Fang Yun slowly opened the military order, and after seeing the contents inside, he couldn't help but be surprised.

I saw that it was written: Ordered as the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, the disciple Fang Yun, who has both ability and political integrity, and has both courage and strategy, and not long ago defeated Yuan Valve's 50,000 elite army with 20,000 soldiers, which shows his talent. Today, Marshal Qu was unable to command the army, so Fang Yun was promoted to the general of the Yellow Turban Army, and temporarily took the position of Qu Shuai, supplemented by Deputy General Peng. (To be continued......)
