Uncle Nine: I became Master Qianhe, and my fame resounded throughout the Daoist sect.

Chapter 796 Arranging a large army, Jiangdong rats

After Lu Bu finished sending the message and saw that Qianhe hadn't replied, he looked at Liu Bei.

"Xuande, where do you think my 100,000 troops should go? How about I go and attack the five counties of Longxi, take them, and then continue north to meet up with the 50,000 troops led by Wei Yan, and then take Yongliang in the process? What do you think?"

Lu Bu looked at Liu Bei with a confident expression and asked.

After all, most of the troops he led were cavalry, whose advantage lay in their ability to quickly launch long-distance raids.

With Liu Bei providing ample supplies, he had no need to worry about logistics at all!

Moreover, cavalry is practically the nemesis of infantry, so he was determined to lead the cavalry to end the battle quickly!

Liu Bei turned to look at Zhuge Liang, seemingly seeking his opinion.

...........................

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly in agreement: "Very good. Then I will trouble you, Fengxian, to attack the five counties of Longxi."

"Haha, don't worry, I'll take care of this!" Lu Bu laughed triumphantly upon hearing this.

However, at this moment, Zhuge Liang suddenly spoke up: "After thinking about it, I have decided to go with Fengxian."

"What? You don't trust me?" Lu Bu's face darkened upon hearing this, and he said with some displeasure.

"No, it's not that I don't trust Fengxian. It's just that I must go to Chang'an with him, otherwise the subsequent arrangements might be affected," Zhuge Liang quickly explained, shaking his head.

After saying that, he turned his gaze to another younger version of himself and said, "Then I will trouble the other me to eliminate the Cao Wei army at Jieting. After completing the mission, you can come and assist us in attacking Hangu Pass."

“Okay!” The young Zhuge Liang nodded without hesitation, indicating that there was absolutely no problem.

"Brother, let's go and fight those rats in Jiangdong!" Guan Yu said to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei nodded and looked at Zhuge Liang: "Kongming, I want to lead an army of 200,000 to fight the rats of Jiangdong. I will give you the Five Tiger Generals and other generals, and I will take Yunchang, Yide, Hansheng and Zhao Yun myself!"

Zhuge Liang nodded: "My lord, aren't you going to take a strategist with you?"

"Hmph, those mere rats from Jiangdong, I, Guan Yu, will absolutely beat them to a pulp!" Guan Yu said arrogantly!

Guan Yu now is Guan Yu at his peak!

But Guan Yu was involved in pacifying the world!

These are no less capable of conquering cities and seizing strongholds than the Martial Saint Guan Yu, who is no longer dead!

"Yes, we'll go. I'll send a message in the group chat if there are any problems!"

"Alright, Your Majesty, please be careful!" Zhuge Liang nodded.

Indeed, they have a chat group now, so they can contact each other anytime and share any updates!

..........................

Cao Cao naturally followed Guan Yu, and their 200,000-strong army marched in a grand procession, preparing to head to Jiangzhou and then attack Jingzhou.

The treasure bowl that Liu Bei brought directly produced tens of millions of dan of grain!

After all, 500,000 soldiers are capable fighters.

People are also needed to transport grain.

Therefore, Shu Han mobilized hundreds of thousands of people to transport grain this time.

For the hundreds of thousands of people transporting grain, Zhuge Liang granted them a three-year tax exemption!

Since they can conjure up food, they don't care about this small amount of food in the short term.

In ancient times, the outcome of wars often depended not on the sharpness of swords, but on the depth of granaries.

An ordinary soldier needs 2 jin of grain per day, so an army of 50 would need 100 million jin of grain per day.

If we include warhorses, each horse consumes 10 catties of fodder per day. A cavalry unit with 10 horses would consume an additional 100 million catties per day, bringing the total to nearly 200 million catties.

Just imagine how terrifying it would be to have two million catties of grain!

Of course, there are also 500,000 people transporting grain who need to eat, which means an additional 1 million catties per day!

It can be said that this 50-strong army that swept across the world, plus the logistics support, amounted to 100 million people!

Including warhorses, Shu Han needed 300 million catties of grain every day this time!

Now that you think about it, you won't think that 10 million dan of grain is a lot, right?

This ten million dan is equivalent to one hundred million jin!

These tens of millions of loads are only enough to feed their million-strong army for a month!

As the saying goes, "In war, supplies must come first." After Liu Bei conjured up tens of millions of dan of grain, he had them transported away.

Otherwise, there'll be nowhere to keep producing them!

Only after the grain supplies were transported away did Liu Bei breathe a sigh of relief.

This time, they conjured up enough food supplies for the entire army for a year!

The goal is to sweep the world in one year!
