The same moonlight.

It also shines on the other side of Huangzhou, halfway up Tianmen Mountain.

At this time, the appearance of Tianmen Mountain Bandit Village has changed.

In the middle of the bandit camp, all the weeds in the training square have been cleared away and paved with stones, making it clean.

I saw two thick flagpoles in the middle of the training square, with two large flags flying on them.

The big characters in the middle of a big flag are: The Three Characters of Huangzhou King.

In the middle of the second big flag is the word "righteousness".

The meaning of these two flags is very clear!

This is the rebel army of the King of Huangzhou, not a bandit den anymore.

These two big flags also let the heroes from all walks of life know that this is the rebel army of the King of Huangzhou.

Let everyone know whose team they are?

Around the banner, the gangster houses that harbored dirt and evil have been pushed to rebuild and turned into new thatched wooden houses.

The roof is covered with thatch from the mountains.

The house walls are made of wood.

The rows of new wooden houses, although rough and irregular, appear to be arranged in an orderly manner.

All around, there were patrolling squads of rebel soldiers, conducting patrols vigilantly.

From the official road at the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, there are sentries posted both openly and covertly.

Although it cannot be prevented from being splashed with water, it can be said that it is well-defended and well organized, and is much better than the original Tianmen Mountain bandit army.

At this time, except for the oil lamp in the Tianmen Mountain Assembly Hall, which was still on, the lights in other rooms had been turned off.

now.

Han Bing sat in the main seat and reported with a solemn face: "Everyone, these days, there have been many people who have gone up the mountain to seek refuge with the prince. We have eliminated those bastards who have ulterior motives and misbehaved and want to come here to make a living, but we have still accepted them.

More than three thousand young men."

"Now, there are 2,500 male soldiers and 500 female soldiers."

"Judging from the training in the past few days, they are all young soldiers. As long as they spend more time, get more meat, and feed them with vegetables, they can be trained into good soldiers!"

"Hey hey hey..."

In the meeting hall, everyone laughed honestly.

There was quite a bit of pride in the laughter.

Han Bing also had a smile on his face: "The prince kills bandits for the people of the world and fights for the lives of the good people in the world. People's hearts are full of flesh. Naturally, there are people who travel thousands of miles to follow such a king."

"If I predict correctly, there will be a snowstorm this spring and a bumper harvest in the autumn. Poor people will have no food at home. In previous years, there will be a shortage, and this year it will be even worse!"

"Your Majesty has a good reputation now, and he is the wise master to whom these disaster victims have taken refuge."

"In the future, more people will defect to us, so we won't have to worry about the source of troops."

"Everyone has to work hard next!"

At this time.

A stout man stood up, patted his chest and said, "Chief Han, we are not afraid of hard work. The more people there are on the mountain, the stronger our rebel army in Huangzhou Palace will be."

"I still have a few soldiers from the Northern Army who are on the way. They should be able to reach Tianmen Mountain in about ten days."

"By then, we will be able to add a group of veteran military instructors, and it will not be so laborious to bring in new recruits!"

Han Bing nodded: "Yang Zijian, as long as you are not a soldier who comes here to eat and drink, we can take as much as you want!"

"This is all your fault!"

Yang Zijian earnestly clasped his fists and accepted the order: "Yes!"

"Luo Donggua, how are you doing over there?"

There was a worried look on Luo Donggua's face: "There is not much food in the cave. Food and drink for three thousand people will cost a lot. We won't be able to survive for long."

Han Bing's face became serious again: "Have any information been sent back to the people we sent out to buy food?"

"have!"

"How about it?"

Luo Donggua shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Those local tyrants, gentry and merchants who have food, hoard a large amount of surplus food and refuse to sell it!"

"Because everyone predicts that this year will be a year of great famine, and soon a famine will definitely break out in the Great Xia Empire."

"At that time, they can sit back and raise prices and sell the grain at a high price."

"We purchased it at the current market price, but they simply refused to sell it."

"Moreover, our money is limited and we don't dare to raise the price to buy."

“The supply of food is so difficult!”

for a while.

The gathering hall fell into silence again.

This is the biggest difficulty Tianmen Mountain faces now.

In this time of great disaster, food is the most precious thing.

You can imagine... after the famine breaks out, there must be many poor people selling their children and daughters to survive.

If there is something to eat in Tianmen Mountain at that time, it will be like a sycamore tree that attracts phoenixes to live in. Talented people from all over the world will come to invest in it.

But, if the problem of eating cannot be solved.

Not to mention that the rebels in Tianmen Mountain couldn't help King Huangzhou... they simply couldn't hold on.

At this time.

"Bo..."

A wick exploded in the Juyi Hall.

Han Bing's ears twitched, he narrowed his eyes, stood up, and looked at the door of the Juyi Hall that opened quietly: "Who?"

"come out!"

"Hahaha......"

Zangba's figure squeezed out from the void: "Zangba, a person from the Royal Palace of Huangzhou."

Han Bing's eyes narrowed: "A dead man with a hidden sword!"

Zangba walked straight towards Han Bing, his eyes full of curiosity: "It turns out that I always thought that Leader Han was a weak scholar."

"Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a first-class military commander."

"The prince is indeed right, you are an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs!"

Han Bing's true energy circulated throughout his body, and his body was tense like a cheetah: "How can I believe that you are the person sent by the prince?"

Zangpachi smiled calmly: "I am sending you one million taels of silver on the order of the prince."

"Right at the bottom of the mountain, your soldiers are being transported up the mountain!"

At the gate, the leader of the secret sentry at the foot of Tianmen Mountain came in: "Chief Han, the money is already on the way."

Han Bing relaxed a little.

But, not much!

He remains cautious.

Zang Ba's eyes showed admiration: "The reason why this Tianmen Mountain Bandit Village has silver and food and grass is because it was left by the prince, so that you can train your troops well!"

Han Bing cheered up: "So, the person Han sent to Huangzhou to find the prince has already found the prince?"

Zangpachi was noncommittal: "We found him!"

"We are transporting money to the mountain, we will be there soon!"

Han Bing relaxed and said with a smile: "Han Bing has seen Little General Zangba!"

"What instructions does the prince have?"

Zangba sent a message: "First, use this one million taels of silver to buy grain first. It doesn't matter if the price is higher. Buy as much as you can. Not even a tael of silver will be left behind. All will be stored in Tianmen Mountain."

"Second, when taking in people who defect to the prince, you must keep your eyes open and don't let spies from all sides sneak in!"

"Third, as long as they are hard-working people, no matter old or young, they should stay in Tianmen Mountain and immigrate to the deserted state in the future."

"Fourth, we will stay here to assist the Korean leader in training the new army!"

Everyone was overjoyed!

The king of Huangzhou sent military pay, which means he accepts them!
