"They haven't been in trouble for a long time, and they're too far away from our side for a while."

Zuo Tian Fan Changsheng whispered to Shijun Zhang Fa, and he was also very puzzled in his heart. They have been established for so many years, and they don't dare to act rashly until now, and they are patiently waiting for opportunities. In an inconspicuous small place in the hinterland of the empire, a rebel army that even took the city suddenly appeared.

The war of the empire in the northwest, of course, is clear about the five buckets of rice.

Combined with the news from all sides, Zhang Fa and Fan Changsheng quickly realized that the situation in Taiping County was not just about Longshan being broken. In the event that an integrated brigade was wiped out, Wu'an had de facto lost control of the prefecture.

This judgment means that the Taiping Righteous Army will not be quelled in the short term, and the shape of Taiping County will continue to deteriorate.

In the quiet hall, Shijun Zhang Fa's eyes quietly lit up with a light called ambition.

Zuo Tianfan Changsheng quickly sensed the change in this Wudoumi Taoist Venerable.

He hesitated for a few seconds, then made up his mind and said, "Master, do you want to give an edict to the twenty-four sacrificial wines and let them ......?"

"Not necessarily."

Zhang Fa was moved for a moment, but immediately calmed down. waved his hand and said to the henchmen beside him: "The time has not yet come!" Believe it or not, the rebels in Taiping County will definitely be put down in March. ”

However, he pondered for a moment, and then said, "A group of displaced people can set off such a momentum, and it seems that the empire's control over the local area is indeed weaker than the deity thinks. Although it cannot be launched yet, the big thing can be advanced. Immediately summoned the Right Heavenly Master Du Shouxiong and several great sacrificial wines to come back and discuss the current situation. ”

………

At the same time that the trend of the whole history has quietly shifted. Chen Wu had no time to be distracted. Still shrinking in Longshan Mansion. Vigilantly training his own rebels.

No matter what changes in history, the strength in hand will always be the unchanging cornerstone.

Chen Wu, who knew this very well, made full use of the time when Taiping County's power was in a short vacuum. Not only did Dian Wei, Xu Shizhong, Mo Guohao and other generals personally lead the team, but even Chen Wu himself patrolled every day, using some of the methods of players in "Empire" to assist and improve training. Every day that passes, the expanded Volunteer Battalion and the Taiping Battalion are increasing their combat strength at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

This is incomparable to the Friends Club next to it, which is also frantically recruiting.

Of course, this astonishing speed of improvement is determined by the general's talent and perfect training methods. It is also inseparable from the massive resources invested by Chen Wu.

Tong Guò sold the black goods at a low price, and Chen Wu reached a barter agreement with the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, the Longhe Chamber of Commerce, and the Hongning Gang. As early as a few days ago, the three forces had already deployed the first batch of supplies nearby. In the upper reaches of the Hongze River, more cargo is loaded onto cargo ships and will soon be down the river to the vicinity of the demolished Anping Third Bridge.

Chen Wu had already sent a large number of laborers recruited from Longshan to repair a simple wharf and wait next to it to prepare for the delivery of goods.

According to the list provided by the three forces, there are as many as a dozen kinds of materials in this first batch. Although there were no war horses and armor that Chen Wu wanted, other food, oil and weapons could still be obtained. It's just that the price is a bit inflated. If you count the thirty percent discount here, Chen Wu almost exchanged these goods for four or five times the price on the market.

So one in and one out. The two chambers of commerce and the Hongning Gang have made staggering profits

If it is a business, Chen Wu will definitely lose home.

But for the current rebel army, even if it is ten times the price in exchange for supplies, it is worth it. If you are a miser and refuses to spend these things, the result can only be wiped out by the Empire's endless counterinsurgency army.

Speaking of bartering, Chen Wu had to mention Lin Anluo.

This Taiping County Protector General, the elite from the Eight Great Lords, once again did him a favor.

How to assess the value of a black product is a test of eyesight. Some common jewelry is okay, involving some precious but secluded celebrity calligraphy and paintings, antiques from the previous dynasty, etc., and the rebels are blind. As a player, Chen Wu didn't understand this aspect even more. If there is no Lin Anluo who is like a few treasures and accurately tells the origin and value of each piece of black goods, it can only be calculated according to the price code said by the appraisers of the two chambers of commerce.

Let the buyer's people set the price themselves?

The moisture in this is only afraid that it will break the sky!

Of course, at the beginning, Chen Wu's subordinates were also worried that Lin Anluo would sing and harmonize with the people of the three forces, and deliberately lower the price. But this worry was vetoed by Chen Wu.

can be the son-in-law of the Lin family, how can he be so stupid?

He could now see that Lin Anluo seemed to have other plans for staying here. However, since the other party is willing to make a move, he is naturally happy to see it. It turns out that Lin Anluo's eyesight is indeed amazing. Even if he is not really from a family, but he has been cultivated for many years, his attainments in this area are still comparable to that of a professional appraiser of the Chamber of Commerce. He alone helped the rebels recover the loss of 200,000 gold coins - this is still the number after a discount of 30%!

Lin Anluo's positive expression made many generals of the Righteous Army, including Gan Xing of the Military Intelligence Department, a little puzzled.

They're thieves!

The elites who came out of the Eight Great Lords were defeated and captured by the rebels, and they actually helped them in the dark. This logic, no matter how you look at it, is reversed.

Only Chen Wu knew in his heart that the Eight Great Lords and the Empire had never been of the same mind.

They only care about their own interests and the inheritance of the gate lords, and in fact they are the enemies of any ruler. Chen Wu's rebel army seems to be destroying the Lin family's sphere of influence, but in fact, as long as Wu'an City is there, the Lin family's influence is limited, and it is the empire that really suffers!

As for Taiping County becoming more chaotic because of this, the Lin family not only won't care, but will be happy to see it.

The shape is messed up, so it's good to fish in troubled waters!

………

As the transaction progressed, truckloads of materials quietly brought in helped the rebels stabilize their foothold.

The abundant supply of food and meat allowed the soldiers to sustain their daily intensive training, rather than to train them to death.

The medicinal materials purchased at a high price, according to the "ancestor" formula provided by Chen Wu, were configured into a medicinal liquid with good use effect and high cost performance, which nourished and forged the most elite Taiping Battalion soldiers. Although it costs a lot of money, after years of use, this liquid can make a soldier's physique several times stronger, and everyone can become a pawn.

In the future, even if he encounters the Northland barbarians of the Lena Dynasty, at least he will not suffer physically!

As the time slowly entered early October, Chen Wu waved his hand and changed all the 3,000 Named Yong Battalion and Taiping Battalion into uniform military uniforms.

The cloth for military uniforms, the aristocratic families of Long Shan and the inventory of the two chambers of commerce are enough to provide. As for the tailors, Chen Wu hired hundreds of women who could make clothes with food. Although the craftsmanship may be uneven, at least in terms of materials, colors, and overall styles, they are basically the same.

Of course, specific to different battalion heads and troops, there are also some corresponding changes to these military uniforms. For example, the same infantry army, the Volunteer Battalion and the Taiping Battalion have clear marks on their chests, and the latter has an extra cloth belt.

Considering the characteristics of durability, easy washing, and light color will not fade, the fabric used by Chen Wu is a gray coarse cloth. The overall style is roughly a reference to some military uniforms from the real world before the time travel. Maybe not handsome enough, but it definitely looks clean and generous. Especially when the daily drill and assembly, a wing of thousands of people uniformly dressed to form a large gray phalanx, the impact on the line of sight is absolutely amazing.

The replacement of military uniforms has an unimaginable boost to the morale of these rebels.

The previous messy clothing will subconsciously remind the rebel soldiers that they are rebels turned from exiles. But now, a uniform and neat military uniform will give birth to a sense of military responsibility in the hearts of the rebels. Only two days after the whole army changed its clothes, the generals at all levels of the righteous army, including Dian Yong, Xu Shizhong, and Mo Guohao, expressed their amazement to Chen Wu.

The most intuitive effect is that the daily training effect is unexpectedly good.

Even, not only within the rebel army, but also the people of the entire eastern city of Longshan were taken aback by this. As they became familiar with the Taiping Rebels, many people had a feeling that the Rebels were becoming more and more like the original officers and soldiers, both in terms of training and manners. This feeling is especially evident after the abrupt change of uniform uniforms.

A thief who is similar to the official army!

As this impression and name spread, more than a month had passed since Longshan City was destroyed.

After several victories over the officers and troops, coupled with systematic training, the Volunteer Battalion and the Taiping Battalion have completely eliminated the impact of the expansion and reorganization of the army.

Even if there are a lot of new recruits mixed in the current two wings, the Volunteer Battalion still has the combat strength before the expansion, and even faintly exceeds some.

This elite wing of the Taiping Battalion, due to the high www.biquge.info of the Biqu Pavilion, almost no new recruits joined, and the combat strength has improved even more.

The faint and fierce aura that emanates from the bones, pretending to be an official army of the city defense battalion, no one will doubt it!

In addition to the improvement of the overall combat strength of the troops, the transactions between the Taiping Righteous Army and the two chambers of commerce and the Hongning Gang are also carried out in an orderly manner. With the third batch of various materials being loaded and shipped one after another, Chen Wu faintly felt that he could consider sending troops again.

The absolute safety time left to him by the empire is a month at most. And the 70,000 or 80,000 displaced people outside Longshan City are also consuming food every day with nothing to do. After some weighing, Chen Wu decided to let the Taiping Camp continue to sit in Longshan, while maintaining the rhythm of training, while waiting to take over the third batch of supplies from the Longhe Chamber of Commerce and the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce.

The first and second wings of the Volunteer Battalion were divided into left and right armies, each commanding 30,000 or 40,000 displaced people, and marched towards Wu'an first, sweeping the towns and villages along the way.

In fact, the Friends of Good Friends had been doing this for a week earlier.

Of course, such a division of troops requires sufficient intelligence support.

The 1st Garrison Brigade of Wu'an does not seem to be going out of the city lightly, but there are no absolutes. Once Chen Wu divides his troops and continues to sweep eastward, Qian Boming will definitely have a time when he can't bear it. If there was no accurate information, it was really possible that the two armies divided by Chen Wu would be eaten one by one. (To be continued......)
