At the temporary battlefield meeting under Jiaozhou City.

"How much is the amount of food in the army?"

Zhou Huaian faced Yang Neng, the leader of the Grain Taiwan official and the auxiliary brigade leader.

“How long can it last?”

"Reporting to the current consumption of the leader, the army's food and fodder reserves still have a surplus of about twenty days..."

Because she was injured on her face many times and looked a little facial paralysis and expressionless, Yang Neng replied:

"In addition, you can raise funds from local governments in a short period of time, and purchase some to supplement... It can be delayed to about one month."

"But after twenty days, the subordinates and husbands will not care about the subordinates..."

"But it's okay. This period of time is enough for us to make trouble and strive for changes and breakthroughs..."

Zhou Huaian thought about it and comforted and inspired him.

"But the place is settled, so just don't spread the news in a short time."

"So we not only can't reduce the staff at will, but we also have to recruit more people..."

"This way, I will pass on the order."

Zhou Huaian settled down and continued

"On the grounds of further reorganization, strengthen the control of those affiliated troops, and then arrange for returning home to farm as a reason to dismiss and eliminate the elderly and weak who are of little use...

"The next step is to recruit and arm more young and strong people...even if it is used as a scene... As long as you can control these strong men, if you want to get messed up in other places, you will not be much more messed up."

"Get order..."

More than a dozen subordinates present all shouted. Then, Zhou Huaian stood alone in front of the newly made sand table and gently tapped the various terrain represented on the Honghe Plain with wooden poles.

As a newly established army, it has long dragged out the traditional peasant army that was scattered without food; therefore, with the expected reserves, there will be no big problems even within a month of being cut off in the rear; not to mention, it also has the newly opened Haimen Town and its maritime canal as a candidate for transportation route; the key is the chain reaction of those peripheral forces.

Now there are Tuman who have made great attacks in the distance, there are remnants of the city that have resisted to the end, and there are pirates behind the scenes. Therefore, they can only focus on the principle of clenching their fists and hitting people with all their strength to solve the problem first, so that they can achieve a series of breakthroughs.

...........

And in Bijing Port,

Lin Shenhe, who had a small iron pot above his head, squatted on the roof, and climbed up to a remote person with a hunched over his body. He shot him with an arrow and suddenly came. Then he sighed heavily, and carefully took a sip of water from the gourd on his waist to moisten the dry and thirsty throat.

Now, the reason why they have become like this is because of the thieves outside.

It is said that the gang that operated Jiaozhou Dagang underground, one of the remnants of the "Five Old Association", escaped. Hua Lao had returned to the port area at some time, and connected the wealthy families in Zhongfangqu, the rear urban area, and suddenly launched an accident to block the retreat of their retreat. Then a large number of pirates flocked from the sea, and some people even took the opportunity to set fires indiscriminately. With the inside and outside cooperation, most of the areas immediately fell into the area.

In the end, only the remaining remaining people gathered on the overflowing, relying on the cargo warehouse and warehouse area located in the east corner of the port area to hold on for a while; and the support of the watercraft on board and boatmen on the nearby landing ships, they defeated the chaotic attacks of the pirates again and again.

But now it was almost dizzy, and they had obviously found a new countermeasure. They began to pile up a lot of firewood outside the warehouse, and then used carts to transport goods as a cover, and approached the walls of the warehouse area little by little. Even though they were shot one after another, they continued to attack the fire one after another.

At this time, another alarm came from behind:

"Not good, the thief came over from the sea."

With these screams and shouts, a wide ship parked nearby had quickly fallen in amid some fighting and roaring movements, and was set on the deck and many screaming figures fell down with sparks.

Lin Shenhe's mind suddenly sank and fell into a certain kind of fear and despair. This was a tiger entering the front door and a wolf coming from behind was too busy to take care of himself. The water hustle and boatmen who held swords and bows to help them defend were also panicked or messed up. At first, some people ran towards the rear involuntarily, but wanted to escape back to their ships before talking.

However, the sudden change of life and blood splashed everywhere in the screams. However, the few water husbands who stood up and escaped were shot down by Lin Shenhe who jumped off the roof first, knocked down one and cut off his head. The rest of the people were suddenly startled and stopped their steps and movements.

"Are you so worried about lard? I actually want to escape by the enemy? Do you think everyone is not dying fast enough?"

Lin Shenhe, who was covered in blood, said sternly with red eyes covered in blood.

"If this little place on the shore is not protected, what can you hide in each other by hiking your sails with a few ships that don't have time to raise your sails?"

"Only by following me to kill the thief can you survive..."

.........

On a post tower in the port area, as the initiator of this incident, he had long mastered the underground forces of Jiaozhou Port and even the coastal coastal areas. "Hua Lao", one of the leaders of the "Five Old Man Association", was also looking at this scene, constantly urging and transferring the former's hands to join the attack on these remnants of forces.

Although this "Hua Lao" has an old name, it does not look old at all. Instead, it is a middle-aged beautiful woman with charm and charm in every move. It is hard to imagine that she is such a pretty woman who once mastered hundreds of brothels and sects along the coast of Jiaozhou with Bijing Port as the center, and took advantage of the advantages of maritime transit to monopolize and control the local bulk transaction business for a long time.

Therefore, it also fostered and stored many wanted and exiled criminals and desperation, as wings and minions to maintain their own power and status; thus, countless people were destroyed and their wives and children were separated, and their blood and tears were endless. As a result, they also formed a deep network of relations and unshakable interests with many pirates, bandits, private traffickers and others;

Therefore, the weak female body, who is only powerless, is ranked as one of the five elders of the association in these underground worlds where the strong prey on the weak and only respects force. Therefore, while fighting with other associations, they also act as a think tank and well-informed character in their daily lives;

Therefore, after these thieves landed in Dagang, Jiaozhou and started to rectify, she was able to escape from the sky first; and finally contacted a strong background and backer, and made a comeback based on the connections and hidden lines she left behind to make a comeback. She could even convince the wealthy families in Fangqu, the rear city area to sit still, and cut off the channels for these thieves to seek help and break through.

But as the saying goes, any hateful person must be pitiful; her real name is Leizhu, who gave birth to a son by the bankrupt Hu Shang. Therefore, she was sold to many places at a young age, and finally became the top star in Jiaozhou City with the name "Green Waner"; but by no surprise, she encountered many tricks and endings of women in the courtyard;

First, he was defeated by his lover who was born in poverty and had to compromise with reality and gave up on himself; then he was targeted by a series of deliberate scams and lost both his life and his wealth. He did not even have the opportunity to marry a business woman to become a businesswoman, and was forced to owe huge debts to the hospital. His years of shy efforts and expectations were empty all the time.

Although she suddenly realized that she had recovered a little bit of revenge from the other party through the deliberate leader of the gang, and Erdo went to control the hospital; but she also paid a considerable price for it physically and mentally. Then she realized that her flesh and blood color, which she had been estimated, would eventually disappear, but some things would never change;

So she began to pursue and seek everything she wanted by any means, or things like power, wealth, etc. that could bring her a little sense of security. For example, obtaining news through a brothel and turning it into a channel of influence such as wealth and power. Until now, no one dares to call her the "Green Woman" flower name, but to routinely worship the "Hua Lao".

At the beginning, the local chaos in Jiaozhou was in chaos, and the plan that the Five Elders Association wanted to take the opportunity to take the stage was also the product of her hands. Then there were bandits who were flooding by sea and land, and there was also the waste of both sides of the taxpayer and the united soldiers intensified and both sides suffered. However, the connections and resources that the Five Elders Association had fully mobilized, and moved to the next step; they forced the local maritime merchants in the urban area to compromise and give in, and then recognized their open dominance and control in Jiaozhou Dagang.

The thieves who strongly intervened in Jiaozhou Dagang at sea completely shattered their plans and plans. The power and force mobilized by the Five Olds Club quickly disappeared in front of these well-trained warriors.

Therefore, she, who wanted to recover and revenge in terms of reason, public or private, easily relied on the inside line in Jiaozhou City to gain a new backer and background; the other party even promised that she could successfully cut off the retreat of the foreign thief army; not to mention standing on the table again, it would be no longer a problem to even want an officially recognized identity and corresponding position; so she devoted herself to everything she could contact without hesitation.

It’s a pity that the thieves who stayed in the port area were too cautious and had basically no results in a short period of time for her sending out to hook up and win over. After the matter started, there were still a small number of people who could gather and fight and leave, retreated to the area where the ship was mooring to hold on.

Unfortunately, the pirates, bandits, and private dealers who were in charge of contacting each had their own origins rather than acting in the same way. After they got ashore and entered the port, they were busy burning and killing the female and silver plundering, and they didn't have much intention to work together to deal with the "hard bones" represented by the remaining thieves, so they actually gathered and escaped many people one after another.

Some people even deliberately broke the agreement and tacit understanding between him and the big households in the city, and wanted to rush through the wall and raged hard, but they were all repelled. Despite this, they had an unignorable impact on her relationship with those people. Or in other words, she had to pay more benefits and concessions to stabilize these people who are on the wall again.

But now, with her all-out coercion, inducement, promises, agitation, and reciprocity, all this should be completely over. She looked at the warehouse area gradually drowned in the sound of tearing and killing from sea and land, and she couldn't help but show a kind of wisdom beads holding again.

As long as the remnants of these thieves can be solved and the military supplies they have obtained, the thieves with low lives can be further armed, and a little guidance and encouragement can make them turn to deal with the temporary allies in the rear city;

Although they each have their own servants and guards to protect themselves as evidence, they can protect themselves for a while; in the face of the thieves who have formed a large scale, they are just dead bones in the tombs that have been broken. Do these fence-headed grass think that watching the fire from the other side of the river will be so easy?
