After leading his army to capture Erlong Mountain and settled the entire army to the mountain and up and down, Sun Tu finally could relax and rest for a while. However, at this time, he did not rush to fall asleep. Instead, after sending people around him to wait outside the house, he quietly entered the ring of the ring again.

In fact, in more than a year after leaving Tokyo, Sun Tu had entered the warehouse system world many times, but what disappointed him was that although his official position and reputation continued to improve, many warehouses have been added, and now they have been opened to Warehouse No. 37. However, the things in these more than 20 additional warehouses have not changed at all. They are all full warehouses of grain, and at most they are added to some categories.

Sun Tu did not plan to be a grain merchant in the Song Dynasty. He had more than 20 warehouses in his hands. Hundreds of tons of grain did make him feel helpless. This system was too scammed. However, after this battle in Erlong Mountain, he realized some of the key points that had been ignored before. In fact, these grains may be more valuable to him, a general, as a commander, than to get a lot of real money and silver.

Affected by the current population, planting technology, etc., the annual grain output of the Song Dynasty was not very abundant. Even in a good year, it might not be able to meet the needs of countless military and civilians in the world. Once the famine is in the year of desolation, the situation will only get worse, and there are many things that starve people to death. This is a problem for the people, and isn’t it the same for the wing troops of various prefectures?

The government troops in various places say they are troops, but in fact they are similar to ordinary people and have their own survival needs. Moreover, because they need training, the consumption of food will only be greater. If Sun Tu wants to train a elite soldier in Qingzhou, he needs a large amount of food as logistical support. It is obviously not enough to rely solely on the distribution of the court. The hundreds of tons of food in the warehouse have now become his greatest help and confidence in raising troops!

After understanding all this, Sun Tu was glad that the warehouse system could give him so much food that seemed useless before. Today, he entered the Jie Zhongjie and checked the full warehouse one by one. Sun Tu's face was filled with joy: "This battle only consumed a few hundred boxes, less than one-tenth of the warehouse of grain. Most of the other warehouses were filled with fine rice and noodles. Once all of them were taken out, they would be enough to provide tens of thousands of troops with food and food. In this way, it would not be difficult for me to expand the army and recruit soldiers."

The more he thought about it, the more excited he felt. The function of the grain in the warehouse was not only here, but more importantly, they were powerful supplements that were completely expected by both the enemy and us. Just like this time, they could induce the people of Erlong Mountain to take the initiative to go down the mountain. In the future, if they make a mistake in confronting the enemy, they think that Sun Tu's troops are short of food and attack rashly, they will naturally suffer a great loss.

In addition, the logistics transportation of the army when going to fight is also a huge problem. In order to ensure the safety of the food route, the main force of the army sometimes dare not go too fast, and a large number of civilians and civilians also need to help deliver food along the way. But when Sun Tu came here, there was obviously no concern in this regard. All the food was placed in his ring and the army would not affect the progress of the army at all.

"Maybe I can lead my army to raid for a long distance and catch some enemies off guard in the future. As long as I use it well, these hundreds of tons of food will be enough to win several big victories. Moreover, the warehouse is still growing now, and maybe I can stockpile thousands of tons of food in my hands by then..."

Just as he was excitedly planning for the future, the system sound suddenly echoed throughout the space: "The host's reputation has been upgraded again, and three warehouses have been added. The warehouse has been opened from 38 to 40!"

When Sun Tu heard this, he became energetic and quickly thought about it, and teleported himself to the warehouses to see what happened. The first two warehouses were as he thought. There were bags of grain codes in neat order, roughly no different from the dozens of warehouses before. However, when he arrived at Warehouse No. 40, the situation was completely different. Looking at the cartons and smelling the pungent sulfur smell at the nose, Sun Tu frowned: "No, it's such a coincidence? I just realized that it's good to open a warehouse full of grain. Just change the tricks for me? Your system is too scammed!"

As he complained in his heart, Sun Tu had already stepped forward and opened a cardboard box. The things inside were indeed as he guessed. They were square, big firecrackers the size of sea bowls, and the kind of thing that said "Thunder" was written on it.

Could it be that the system also knew that it had won a big victory this time and hoped that the army would celebrate after returning to Qingzhou, so did these firecrackers? Sun Tu stared at the boxes of firecrackers with some amusement and dazed. After a while, he suddenly felt his mind, as if this thing had other greater uses...

But before he could come up with a reason, he found that an external force was pulling himself into the world outside the system. Sun Tu understood at that time that someone should be calling outside the door, so he didn't stay here. With a thought, the person had returned to the house. Sure enough, he heard someone slamming the door: "The capital, the mountain has changed, and an army is lingering below, as if it is possible for us to be unfavorable."

Sun Tu immediately stepped forward and opened the door, calmed down, and said, "Lead the way, I want to see who dares to run to the Qingzhou army at this time to be arrogant!" Although a battle has just ended, the Qingzhou army is in full swing, so I am not afraid of fighting with people again.

When Sun Tu came to the high platform outside Baozhu Temple, some subordinates surrounded there with serious expressions, looking down from afar, and were still talking: "Looking at the flags and dresses of these guys, most of them are bandits from Liangshanpo, and they dare to invade our Qingzhou!"

"They were not here to invade our Qingzhou, but to help rescue Erlong Mountain." Lu Da explained loudly at this time. Seeing Sun Tu arrive, he even told the story of what happened on the mountain before.

But these words made everyone more angry: "These bandits are really rampant. Do you really think that our official army dare not attack them? The chief general, please go down the mountain and lead the army to defeat the enemy!" This immediately won the agreement of many people, and everyone was ready to go down the mountain to join the battle.

Sun Tu also narrowed his eyes and looked at the Liangshan army below. There were quite a few soldiers and horses coming, but from the formation, its combat power was just that. Although it was stronger than the rabble in Erlong Mountain, the team looked as loose and scattered. At this time, it also gave people a feeling of chaos.

"Don't hurry, wait a little longer." Sun Tu's eyes swept across the Liangshan army from time to time, but he was weighing his heart. The Qingzhou army under his command naturally had the power to fight again, but it was a long battle. Even if he could continue to fight hard, he would have to pay a considerable price. This is the result that Sun Tu didn't want to see.

Another thing he didn't want to show was that Sun Tu still had a hint of admiration and expectation for the heroes in Liangshanpo, and really didn't want to meet them just like this. So after pondering, Sun Tu finally ordered: "Send a messenger to negotiate with them. If they are willing to retreat, I can assume that I have never seen them here. But if they are ungrateful and dare to show off their power in our Qingzhou, don't blame us for sending troops to suppress them."

But as he issued this order, a surprising scene happened - Liangshanbo's team actually retreated slowly. Not only did they not intend to attack the official army at Erlong Mountain, they retreated voluntarily.

"This is..." Sun Tu looked down at the other party quickly retreating, and then laughed for a while: "You can pick it up and put it down. Seeing that Erlong Mountain has fallen into the hands of our Qingzhou Army, they no longer dare to bother."

This is true. This time, Song Jiang and Chao Gai led nearly 2,000 brothers from Liangshanpo to Qingzhou. They had the intention of helping Erlongshan Mountain to repel the official army. But before they could arrive at the place, they saw that the officials were stationed on the mountain and the downstairs, and the Qingzhou army flags were planted in front of Baozhu Temple.

Now, they immediately understood that Erlong Mountain had been completely captured by the Qingzhou army in just a short time, and there was no such thing as rescue.

When they stopped in front, they were discussing what to do next. Some brothers advocated killing and defeating the official army. However, those with great wisdom, such as Song Jiang and Wu Yong, immediately denied this statement: "Now that the official army has won a great victory and is in full morale, we may not be their opponents, this is one; our brothers have been working hard for many days on the expedition, and they are already exhausted and have insufficient combat power, this is the second; Erlongshan is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but now the official army is in a fortunate position. Even if we do anything, we will have no chance of winning. This is the third. With these three points, I think we cannot fight, but we should retreat."

"But those people on Erlong Mountain..." Chao Gai was still a little unwilling to say.

"Brother, they have been killed or become prisoners at this point. If we really kill them, they will only let them die faster. It would be better to retreat." Wu Yong also hurriedly persuaded: "Brother, we should put the overall situation of Liangshan first. Once we really have a mistake here, I am afraid that Liangshanbo will be in danger. Zhu Hu, Lisanzhuang, on Dulonggang, had intended to attack my retreat before. If we lose our troops, the situation will only become more and more unfavorable."

"Forget it, just do what you said, we will retreat now. Alas..." Even if we were reluctant, the Liangshanpo army that ran hundreds of miles at this time and passed through the prefecture could only retreat helplessly. However, when we retreated, Chao Gai and others also had a clear idea in their hearts: "It is always a disaster to keep the three villages on Dulonggang. When we go back this time, we have to find a way to eliminate them together!"

Seeing that two thousand troops of Liangshanbo came and retreated suddenly, the Qingzhou army, who were waiting for battle on the mountain, cheered and cheered: "The city is mighty and our army is victorious!" In everyone's opinion, this was clearly the momentum that directly scared a team of two thousand people away, and it was a bandit from Liangshanbo. This kind of reputation was something I had never dreamed of before.
