Chapter 1670: The middlemen under the red coat, hungry people are like tides, life-saving food
Now the number of immigrants is doubled and rising every day. Now the number of people transported every day has reached thousands.
Even Shen Mo himself was surprised by such numbers.
Just as Shandong's population was rapidly flowing to Lintao, Miss Yang Miaozhen was also overjoyed.
Their Red Coat Army could make a lot of difference from it after a round trip. Soon, the grain reserves in the copycat had reached the point where Yang Miaozhen could not stop laughing.
At this time, when Military Commander Chen saw this huge amount of food, he was not as happy as those peasant generals, but frowned.
Shen Mo immediately summoned Yang Miaozhen and several rebel generals and said to them:
"We can't take away such a huge amount of food when we fight. If there is too much, it will be a burden..."
Shen Mo's words were just halfway through, and the rebel generals rolled their eyes when they heard this!
At this moment, everyone thought to themselves: "When did food become a burden? In troubled times, is food a human life good?"
At this time, Shen Mo said to everyone: "As far as I see, these foods must not be preserved in Zhucheng."
"Since our army is enough now, we don't have to use food to expand our army at all, so let's spend it and strengthen the strength of our army again!"
When he heard Shen Mo's words, all the generals of the Red Coat Army felt that it was incredible.
Everyone was thinking: Now that our army has reached such a strong level, is there still room for further improvement?
Of course, Shen Mo was not like these Shandong rebel leaders. Of course, he knew that although the Red Coat Army is quite good in combat, it was just compared with the original peasant army.
If they really are far behind the top strong troops in the world!
So Shen Mo said, "Our military strength, of course, still has room for further improvement. For example, we still need a lot of armor now."
"According to my heart's requirements, each of the heavy infantry in the Red Coat Army who were responsible for siege must be wearing double armor, so that casualties can be avoided in the siege battle."
"In addition, the number of war horse equipment in our army has just reached 20%..."
"What does it mean that just reached 20%?" At this time, Ling Feiyang shrugged in confusion: "There are not enough horses? Military Secretary Chen, how many more do you want it to reach?"
"I can tell you," at this time, Shen Mo's face was stern and said seriously to everyone:
"Today's Mongolian Khan Temujin led his troops to expand the land to the west for tens of thousands of miles, sweeping across the world, and no one could stop his troops. In his troops, the minimum is one man and three horses. If they were to fight for a long distance, the Mongolian army would reach the level of one man and six horses!"
"Now that the five of us only have one war horse, do you think it's enough? Let me tell you, it's still far away!"
After hearing the words of this military advisor Chen Haonan, everyone was stunned at the same time!
No matter what, these generals would never have imagined what it would be like when the 10,000 troops marched with 60,000 war horses.
However, this military advisor Chen seemed to have an endless perverted need for the mobility of the troops. This made everyone wonder but did not dare to refute it, but it also felt that military advisor Chen was too stubborn.
Even so, Yang Miaozhen firmly supported the opinions of military advisor Chen Haonan.
Then, when the mountain kings escorted the population again, they heard another news that made them ecstatic.
In addition to the large population, these mountain kings can also exchange excellent war horses and any armor for food from the Red Jacket Army!
Some of the rebel generals, some of them were hungry in the villages, while others were ambitious and wanted to get food to continue to expand their troops. On the contrary, they did not have much demand for war horses and other things.
What's more, the Red Jacket Army said that all kinds of armor are not afraid of rags, even if you just put together a basket of scattered armor leaves, they can be used to exchange for food.
This made the leaders of the rebel army in various mountain villages in Shandong happy to tell each other. So the climax of another transaction with the Zhucheng Red Coat Army was immediately triggered out of thin air.
The number of horses in the Red Coat Army began to rise sharply. At the same time, the 200 craftsmen sent by Caoqiao Town were simply left in Zhucheng by Ma Zhiyuan.
These craftsmen are served by Ma Zhiyuan's delicious food and drink every day, and their daily work is to constantly trim and renovate the armor.
The Zhucheng Red Coat Army is now developing vigorously, and the strength of the troops is increasing every day.
Yang Miaozhen looked at all this in surprise, and she knew very well in her heart. Such a huge change was completely brought to her by the military advisor Chen Haonan!
...
On this day, Jia Rujun, a leader of the rebel army entrenched in Laizhou, came to Zhucheng not far away a hundred miles.
Jia Rujun had a wide forehead, a thin chin, and a face that looked like a newly pulled radish. The two beards on his upper lip were one left and one right, and were supported to both sides, which looked particularly interesting.
He held a rebel army of seven or eight thousand people in his hands. Jia Ru's army had occupied Laizhou for two or three years. It was the largest rebel army in northern Qi and Lu among the Shandong uprising troops.
Over the past few days, Jia Rujun's parish has been constantly using population and horse armor to exchange for food. At the beginning, he felt that he had taken a big advantage.
Jia Rujun even once ordered the generals he sent to Zhucheng to exchange, even if the price was a little short, he would not bargain with others, as long as he could get food!
In his words, "Don't wait until Yang Miaozhen, the woman in Zhucheng, to replace her accumulated food within a few days! We will have no choice but to take advantage of such a thing!"
But what he never expected was that no matter how many refugees he asked his generals to bring to Zhucheng or how many war horses he used to exchange, the Red Coat Army was very serious when delivering food, and was not vague at all!
After a while, Jia Rujun secretly calculated the calculations in his Laizhou village. This was half of the rebels in Shandong, all of whom were exchanging food with Yang Miaozhen!
But after he figured it out, Jia Rujun immediately rubbed his eyes and looked at the number in disbelief!
"Impossible! How could Yang Miaozhen have so much food? Damn it! Has the treasure pot been dug out in Zhucheng?"
Afterwards, Jia Rujun finally couldn't help but take his curiosity and brought people over to Zhucheng to trade.
Chapter completed!
