The fire prison is closed.

Spacious inside the hall.

Wang Ganju sat on a large pineapple chair covered with tiger skins, looked down at the many anti-thief captains present, as well as some officials in charge of management, and asked calmly:

"Master Song, how much food does our army have?"

Lao Song Tou, as a former grain official in Xiaogu County, an old team, can be said to be like a treasure for the family background of the Blood Turban Army, and replied respectfully:

"In the treasury of Guannei, there are still 4 million taels of silver and 1,000 pieces of antique jewelry, all of which are obtained by killing large households in the county.

They are unwilling to pay taxes honestly, and they put taxes on those people, and these assets will naturally cheapen my blood turban army.

In terms of grain and grass, it is also very sufficient, about 125,800 stones, even if our army does not leave the Ranquan Mountain for half a year, it can be maintained for half a year. ”

Wang Ganju nodded with satisfaction and asked again:

"How many men and horses do I currently have in my Blood Turban Army?"

Song Batian strode out, clenched his fists and said:

"Every time the Blood Turban Army breaks through a county, it can obtain about 800 soldiers and a school captain through blood sacrifice, and the county town is doubled.

So far, our army has traveled north and south of Liangzhou, and has broken through the three county towns of Dunhuang, Zhangye, and Xihai, as well as 17 county seats, and has successively increased 18,400 soldiers and 23 generals.

However, the successive sieges of the city, dozens of battles of all sizes, and the loss of half of the troops, at present, there are still 9,600 soldiers left in the Blood Turban Army, including you and the Song army, a total of 18 generals.

In addition, some captured Liangzhou soldiers also chose to abandon the darkness and join our army, forming a horseless cavalry, a total of 1,000 people.

If you are willing to trust these soldiers and give them the corresponding horses, then my Blood Turban Army can increase a strong cavalry army! ”

Hearing this, Wang Ganju couldn't help but feel a little weak, although these Xiliang soldiers were strong, but in a short period of time, they were difficult to trust.

It's a pity to discard it if it's tasteless!

But at this time.

Dressed as the Great Witch of Hu Shang in the Western Regions, Zhu Zhu is the soul of the doppelganger-Wu Shan, and suddenly offers a strategy:

"General, the villain may have a way to let those 1,000 soldiers follow our Blood Turban Army all the way to the black ......."

"Oh, what's the solution? Or is there some secret ritual? Wang Ganju asked casually, "If Luoshui is an oath, then forget it, our Blood Turban Army, although it is a true dragon in the future, has not been recognized by the Luoshui Goddess, and cannot use the power of this ceremony." ”

Wu Shan sneered:

"The villain learned from Hu Shang, who returned from Loulan's escape, that the so-called Qingzhou general Xing Jiangchen came up with a clever plan that could deter the captives without relying on rituals."

"Let those soldiers kill their own direct officers in public, if they act like this, those soldiers will never be able to return to the Xiliang Army......"

Wang Ganju thought carefully in his heart, and then realized that this was actually a good way to control the soldiers without "ceremony: Luoshui as an oath".

He couldn't help but secretly admire:

"It is worthy of being a Qingzhou general, this Jiang Chen, not bad!"

said.

Wang Ganju waved his hand, and then ordered the two lieutenants to implement this policy.

However, in the middle of the day, under the fire prison wall, although many soldiers were full of reluctance, they still raised their butcher knives to the former superior officers.

Blood flowed all over the ground, and heads rolled.

Although dozens of officers died, they got thousands of barely usable cavalry, which is a lot of money for the Blood Turban Army!

And that's not all.

Wang Ganju also received a top-secret piece of information:

"The Tianlong Rat has entered the counties of Liangzhou, leading many rats to detoxify everywhere, and successfully corrupted most of the grain and grass in the official warehouse......"

When the anti-thief lieutenants heard this, they were all overjoyed and exclaimed:

"Steady!"

"God bless the Blood Turban Army!"

"The country is about to die, there will be demons, according to this statement, the demon rat caused the food disaster, doesn't it prove in turn that the David-Wu Dynasty will die?"

…………

The county warden's house, the main hall.

Bang!

The pineapple wooden table was slapped heavily by the palm of the flesh and instantly crushed into powder.

And the existence of such terrifying power, in Liangzhou today, only a few people can do it, and the owner of this meat palm is,

Xin Longzi.

He stood in the county guard with a sword, his face was full of anger, and he almost wanted to kill:

"Who is it?"

"Which fool's granary?"

Just now, when the Qingliang Bandit Coalition was about to bring a batch of grain and grass to the Ranquan Mountain to suppress the bandits, they unexpectedly discovered:

Where's the grain?

After inspection, almost all of the granaries in Jiuquan were contaminated with rat feces, and they were all rancid and had no edible value.

The well-preserved grain is only 3,000 stones, which is only enough for an army of 10,000 to eat for four or five days......

And those culprits, that is, the damned rats, have long since fled, leaving only a few dozen grain officials who have suffered from the "Ritual: City Fox Society Rats".

This is a joint ritual of the demon rat and the demon fox group.

Once it is successfully held, it will make the mentality of some officials become more and more corrupt, and eventually become shameless and evil officials, incorruptible and shameless, and contemptuous and perverse.

The only food that these shameless evil officials can eat is these corrupted grains.

Therefore, in order to survive, they tried all means, often obstructing the daily inspection of the government, until the arrival of the Qingliang Bandit Coalition Army, they forcibly opened the granary and learned the truth.

Thousands of grains with white flowers, all of which were painstakingly grown by farmers, were reduced to rancid things......

Jiang Chen was born in an agricultural town in River Province, and has cherished grain since he was a child, and every time he thinks of those corrupted grains, he feels distressed, and says in a deep voice:

"General, this time is extraordinary, there are so many rats, they are so well organized, they can even be said to be an army of rats, just like ......"

At this time, Wei Anguo, who is the general of the demon swing, picked up the conversation:

"It's like a demon marquis-level beast, commanding demon rats from all over the country, all gathered in Liangzhou!"

Hearing this, everyone focused their attention on Wei Anguo, who has been dealing with monsters all year round, and is also the most familiar with the monster sequence.

According to the annotation of the "Book of Songs" by a certain demon general, Wei Anguo took out a copy of the "Commentary on the Book of Songs" from his arms and shared it with the generals present.

The demon rat has a total of four levels of sequence.

[Soldier Grade-Shuo Rat: According to the strength of the strength, you can awaken the Latent, Resentful Dung and Violent Fang, a total of three mysterious skills. 】

↓

[Promotion method: In a short period of time, a large amount of grain and grass in the warehouse is devoured, and the surrounding hundreds of people starve to death, or prompt a official who is included in the official registration to die due to the punishment of food/fall into the grass. 】

↓

[Shi Rank - Guancang Evil Rat: Awaken the space stomach bag talent - hard support, dozens of hundreds of stones of grain and grass can be stored in the abdomen, and it is also the main source of materials for storage bags in the world today. 】

↓

[Promotion method: No less than 20,000 stone of corrupted grain, no less than 1,000 people starved to death in the streets around the granary, or prompted officials of the seventh grade and above or sergeants of the commander level to die due to punishment for food. 】

↓

【General Order-Social Disaster Rat:

It can control the power of heaven and earth disasters to a certain extent, causing a slight increase in natural disasters and man-made disasters in a certain area, but it cannot actively control this ability.

It can transform into a human form and cause chaos in the world.

Iron teeth and copper teeth can be awakened, and everything can be bitten off.

If you are born in Yujing City, there is a certain possibility that you will awaken the bloodline of the Heavenly Dragon Rat, and naturally have the majesty to control thousands of demon rats. 】

↓

[Promotion ceremony: unknown, suspected to need to be recognized by the stars of the troubled times.] 】

↓

[Demon Marquis - Natural Disaster and Rat Disaster: Its racial essence has gradually changed from "rat" to "disaster" itself, which can actively cause many natural disasters, including but not limited to floods, droughts, blizzards, sandstorms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, ......]

↓

[The Demon Saint is unknown, in history, there has not been any Demon Saint-level rats, but in the prehistoric demon era, there may have been this level, and there were ancient records of the sages looking for the knotted rope chronicle, speculating that the final stage of the demon rat lineage may be related to the plague. 】

"Hiss~"

When he saw the last line of text, Jiang Chen's heart tightened, and he immediately recalled the previous life on Earth, one of the most serious plagues in human history.

Black death!

The disease can cause large, black, painful tumors on the skin that ooze blood and thick juices, and the infected person may have a high fever and confusion.

Once you get this disease, you won't live for more than three days!

Historically, during the Black Death, Europe's population was reduced by 25 million people, resulting in a severe shortage of labor, abandoning entire villages, abandoning farmland, and declining food production.

The Black Death was followed by famine in many areas.

In the end, a third of Europe's population died, barely reaching the standard of "herd immunity", and this catastrophe was over.

Think of it.

Jiang Chen couldn't sit still, and said in a deep voice:

"Generals, rat infestation is no trivial matter, if there is really a natural disaster and rat infestation, it must be killed as soon as possible, if it is allowed to develop, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles."

Wei Anguo, as a demon general, is also eager to kill or tame a demon marquis, so that he can get rid of the ordinary martial marquis level of "less than the upper than the bottom", and agreed:

"Not bad."

"Since ancient times, the generations of people have worked hard to drive the demons out of Kyushu, how can they let the demons cause trouble in the world?"

But—

Xin Longzi had a different opinion:

"We haven't even found out where the 'natural plague' is hiding, what will happen if we hastily shift the target and let the Blood Turban Army grow?"

Zhang Baisui also praised:

"Yes, the Ranquan Mountain is in the light, and the 'natural disaster and rat disaster' is in the dark, if you waste time on the demon rat, I'm afraid the bamboo basket will be empty."

Zhang Shan and Zhang Si glanced at each other, and they also supported one side respectively, which made the military discussion fall into a stalemate.

Ultimately.

Jiang Chen was the first to figure it out, pondered for a while, and then spoke: "The natural disaster and rat disaster chose to appear in Liangzhou, I'm afraid it will be inseparable from the Blood Turban Army." ”

When Wei Anguo heard this, he couldn't help but cast a puzzled look:

"What do you mean by that?"

Jiang Chen cleared his mind and said:

"Wang Ganju is the legendary killer wolf, and he is the most concerned person among the stars in troubled times."

"And the natural disaster and rat plague are very likely to be sent by the evil star of the troubled times to help Wang Ganju's reinforcements."

Jiang Chen took a sip of tea and continued:

"If you attack Chaoquan Mountain, this demon rat will definitely appear to help. When the time comes, with the strength of the two martial marquis, killing natural disasters and rats is just a trivial matter of chopping vegetables and melons. ”

When everyone heard this, they all felt that it was quite reasonable, and finally agreed that they should not delay time, and early tomorrow morning, they would immediately pull out the camp and go to Chaoquan Mountain to exterminate the Blood Turban Army and kill the thief king!

As for the food problem......

Jiang Chen smiled, but the tone of his mouth was with a hint of coldness: "In Jiuquan County, there are so many big wealthy businessmen, why don't you invite them to have a drink?" ”

Everyone laughed.

This is a qualified Qingzhou general.

You are short of oil and water in your stomach, why don't you hurry up and kill two pigs to make up for it?
