When Yao Yu recruited new recruits before, because the number of applicants surged, there was even a steady stream of recruits sent by various counties, exceeding 100,000.

This is Yao Yu has experienced another wave of careful selection, and some people have been screened out.

That's it, counting the elite troops in Xiangyang and Nanyang, as well as the 45,000 people under Yao Yu's command, there are still 128,000 people in total.

To be honest, even if you count the two counties of Lujiang and Runan, as well as the more than 400,000 displaced people in the north, 3 million people, and the proportion of 120,000 troops is considered high.

Of course, the proportion mentioned here is high, but Yao Yu thinks so.

In fact, the ratio of soldiers to soldiers in various prefectures and counties is basically maintained at the level of five to one, and even at the extreme, three to one.

There is no way, the perennial war, the people are displaced, and the princes in various places can only strengthen the army in order to strengthen their strength. can manage the food, even if the princes have a conscience.

Like Yao Yu, he eats at least one meal of meat every day.

With such living conditions, how many princes have no such luxury in raising elite main forces.

This also made Yao Yuyi say that he was recruiting, and all the registrations were full.

First, Yao Yu is deeply respected in the hearts of the people.

Second, Yao Yu's conditions are too good for everyone to refuse.

The consequence of this is that Suo Hong, who is responsible for the transfer of grain and grass, has a big head.

In two months, Jingzhou's more than 90 million silver coins were left with more than 8 million.

Suo Hong talked to the schedule several times, and the schedule also proposed to Yao Yu, but every time Yao Yu's response was known, but there was never a way to solve it.

Now that it's time to catch up, Suo Hong simply said it directly.

Listening to Suo Hong's words, Yao Yu groaned.

Suo Hong said: "If you save it, these eight million silver coins are enough to be used for taxes a year ago." ”

"That's not going to work, how can the troops do without a supply of meat, anyway, it's a day of training. Can't be sloppy. The reason why our team won all battles, defeated Chen Min again and again, and defeated Wang Cheng to win Jingzhou, didn't it rely on the elite raised by good food? ”

Suo Hong looked embarrassed: "But my lord, if it goes on like this, we won't be able to support it first." ”

"In this case, we can arrange for people to hunt in the nearby mountains and forests first, and if there are females, we will give priority to them, and we will set up a breeding ground ourselves, anyway, no matter when, the supply of meat must not be missing."

Suo Hong couldn't help but wail when he heard this, not to mention how large the scale of this breeding site must be to supply the consumption of 120,000 soldiers, even if it is such a large-scale, but after the construction begins, it will take a certain amount of time to start eating.

Otherwise, the consumption and the capacity of the breeding site cannot be balanced, and the army will still be broken.

Before that, didn't you still buy meat everywhere?

The overall situation in Jingzhou is stable, and meat is not cheap.

Seeing the worry on Suo Hong's face, Yao Yu smiled: "Suo Hong, this is your confusion, we can raise pigs, sheep, rabbits, chickens, animals that reproduce quickly and are easy to survive." Especially rabbits, the fur can be sold for money. ”

Suo Hong's face was somewhat ugly: "Lord, having said that, the problem is that it is difficult to see results in a short period of time." Not to mention, the current money in our hands is not enough for daily consumption, how can we have the spare energy to set up a breeding ground? ”

Yao Yu smiled mysteriously: "Who said there wasn't?" Soon, we'll have a lot of money in our hands. ”

Hearing this, Suo Hong couldn't help but be surprised: "An extra batch of money? Where did it come from? ”

Yao Yu smiled and said, "Sun Yi and Xuan Ce will find a way." ”

As soon as Yao Yu said this, everyone realized that they hadn't seen the two for more than a month.

This is not, so the class schedule took the initiative to ask: "Lord, where did Sun Yi and Wang Xuance go?" It seems like I haven't seen them in a long time. ”

"I gave them some special assignments. It won't be long before I'll be back, okay, if there's nothing to do, let's go back to work first. Everyone cheers up, whether Jingzhou can become a paradise in the future will require a lot of hard work. ”

Everyone said yes, and turned to leave.

It's just that when everyone left, Jiang Jun deliberately stayed for a while.

When there were only Yao Yu, Yao Zheng's uncle and nephew, and the guard Lu Bi He Xiong left, he turned back and arched his hand at Yao Yu: "My lord." ”

Yao Yu was stunned when he saw Jiang Jun coming back, and asked in surprise: "What's wrong Jiang Jun?" ”

Jiang Jun sighed: "Actually, it's nothing, the main thing is to see if the adults have time these days, if you have time, I hope that the adults can enjoy their faces and come to my house for a gathering." After all, my mother thinks that she is embarrassed to delay you all the time in the state pastor's mansion, and the place where I live to catch up with me has already been packed. When the time comes, I hope that the adults will come with their mothers. ”

Yao Yu snorted: "No, Ling Tang is very good in the State Pastoral Mansion." Besides, I'm also idle every day in this house, and it's good to have one more person. ”

said so, but Jiang Jun still shook his head, constantly saying that he dared to let Yao Yu waste too much time.

With Jiang Jun insisting on this, Yao Yu smiled: "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll take a look, if I have time in the next few days, I'll go there." Lingtang's words will be sent over by myself at that time. ”

Jiang Jun sighed and hurriedly saluted Yao Yu.

Then, he said goodbye to Yao Yu and went to the backyard to meet his mother.

When Li learned that Yao Yu had agreed to go to Jiang Jun's mansion, he immediately asked, "How is General Yao's performance doing?" Is it resistance or anger? ”

Jiang Jun shook his head: "It should be fine, it's been a few days, and the adults and sisters should also be angry." ”

Li sighed: "Your sister, she is just angry. I can't understand the situation, and I'm always self-righteous. ”

Jiang Jun snorted, can he not know his sister, no, so he persuaded the Li family: "Mother, it's not enough to just know." If you have time, you can also persuade my sister, the purpose of the adult is to deal with all the gate valves in Jingzhou, and the most annoying thing is also the squandering of resources by the gate valves. My sister still thinks that it is not okay to live as lavishly as she did in Runan before. She changed her mind. Otherwise, the position of the adult's wife is not easy for her to win. ”

Li Shi was surprised: "Looking at Jingzhou, apart from your sister, who else can earn the position of this wife?" ”

"Sister Ban Rou Ban Zhi, Ban Biao is the number one Wenchen under the command of the Lord, and his actual power is much higher than that of me, who is engaged in sacrificial wine. It's not impossible for adults to choose one of the two of them. What's more, Ban Rou has also saved adults in danger many times, and with this friendship, it is destined that adults are likely to choose Ban Rou as their wife. ”
