Chapter 144: Inevitable Disaster
[]
The same piece of moonlight.
It also shone on the other side of the barren state, halfway up Tianmen Mountain.
At this time, the Tianmen Mountain bandit village has changed.
In the middle of the bandit village, all the weeds in the training square have been cleared, paved with stones, and clean.
I saw that in the middle of the training square, there were two thick flagpoles, and two large flags fluttered on them.
The big characters in the middle of a big flag are: three characters of the king of Huangzhou.
In the middle of the second banner is: Yizi.
The meaning of these two flags is very clear!
This is the rebel army of the king of Huangzhou, and it is no longer a bandit den.
These two big flags also made the heroes from all walks of life understand that this is the righteous army of the king of Huangzhou.
Let everyone know whose team they are?
Around the banner, the bandit houses that hid filth and dirt had been pushed to rebuild and turned into new thatched wooden houses.
The roof is made of mountain thatch.
The walls of the house were made of wood.
The rows of new wooden houses, although rough and irregular, look very well arranged.
Around, there are patrolling squads of rebel soldiers, vigilantly patrolling.
From the official road at the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, there are already sentry posts in the open and in the dark.
Although it can't be splashed with water, it is enough to be well-guarded and quite disciplined, which is much better than the original Tianmen Mountain bandit army.
At this time, except for the oil lamp in the Tianmen Mountain Council Hall, the lights in the other rooms had been turned off.
Now.
Han Bing sat on the main seat, and his face was solemn: "Everyone, these days, there have been many people who have gone up the mountain to join the prince, and we have eliminated those bastards who have ill intentions and misbehaved and want to come to eat together, and we still received more than 3,000 young people. ”
"Now, there are 2,500 men and 500 women. ”
"Judging from the training in the past few days, they are all seedlings of soldiers, as long as you spend more time, get more meat and vegetables to come back to make up for them, you can train into good soldiers!"
"Hey, hey, hey"
In the council room, everyone laughed heartily.
In the laughter, there is a bit of pride.
Han Bing also showed a little smile on his face: "The prince kills bandits for the people of the world, fights for the good people of the world, people's hearts are flesh and blood, naturally there are people who come thousands of miles to follow such a king." ”
"If I didn't predict the mistake, this year's spring snow disaster, autumn will not be a bumper harvest, poor people, no food at home, in previous years will be green and yellow, this year will be even worse!"
"The prince is now well-known, and he is the master of these disaster victims. ”
"In the future, more people will come to the country, and we will not worry about the source of soldiers. ”
"Next, everyone has to work hard!"
Then.
A stout man stood up, patted his chest and said, "Leader Han, we are not afraid of hard work, the more people on the mountain, the stronger our righteous army in the Huangzhou Royal Mansion will be." ”
"I still have a few robes from the Northern Army, and they are on the way, and in ten days, they should be able to reach Tianmen Mountain. ”
"At that time, we will be able to add a group of veteran instructors in the army, and it will not be so difficult to bring new recruits!"
Han Bing nodded: "Yang Zijian, as long as it's not a soldier who is here to eat and drink, how much do we want, how much do we want!"
"This matter is hard for you!"
Yang Zijian seriously clenched his fists and took the order: "Yes!"
"Luo Donggua, how are you doing over there?"
Luo Donggua had a worried look on his face: "There is not much food stored in the cave, and the food and drink of 3,000 people is very expensive, and we can't last long." ”
Han Bing's face became solemn again: "The people we sent out to buy food, do you have any information back?"
"Yes!"
"How?"
Luo Donggua shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Those local tyrants, squires and businessmen who have grain are hoarding a large amount of surplus grain and refuse to sell it!"
"Because, everyone expected that this year would be the year of the Great Famine, and soon after, the Great Xia Empire would definitely break out in famine. ”
"At that point, they can sit on the ground and sell the grain at a high price. ”
"We bought it at the current market price, and they wouldn't sell it at all. ”
"Moreover, we have limited silver, and we do not dare to raise the price at all. ”
"It's hard to supply food!"
Time.
In the Hall of Justice, there was silence again.
This is the biggest difficulty that Tianmen Mountain is facing now.
In this time of great calamity, food is the most precious thing.
You can imagine that after the famine broke out, there must have been many poor people selling their sons and daughters to survive.
If there is a bite to eat in Tianmen Mountain at that time, it will be like a plane tree that attracts a phoenix to live in, and there will be people with lofty ideals from all walks of life to vote.
However, if you can't solve the problem of eating.
The rebels of Tianmen Mountain, not to mention that they can't help the King of Huangzhou, they can't hold on at all.
Then.
"Po"
A wick in the Hall of Justice exploded.
Han Bing's ears moved, his eyes narrowed, he stood up, and looked at the door of the Juyi Hall that opened silently: "Who?"
"Come out!"
"Hahaha"
Zangba's figure squeezed out of the void: "Zangba, the person of the Huangzhou Palace." ”
Han Bing's eyes froze: "Hidden Sword Dead Soldier!"
Zang Ba walked straight to Han Bing, his eyes full of curiosity: "It turns out that I always thought that Chief Han was a weak scholar. ”
"Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a first-class general. ”[]
