As the saying goes, before the army moves, food and grass go first.

The status of food in the military can be imagined.

Especially when the two French armies are in a stalemate, the importance of having plenty of food becomes even more important.

Wu Zhi naturally had no idea what Tong Guan and Cai Jing were planning to do with the army's food and fodder.

He was discussing with Yue Fei, Lin Chong and others how to wipe out Liangshan in one fell swoop.

"Report to Mr. Manager, the quartermaster is here."

Just then, a guard came to report.

"Quartermaster? Let him in."

Wu Zhi stopped the military discussion, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and asked the guards to let him in.

Military supplies are the most critical thing for an army and are related to the success or failure of the army.

Wu Zhi naturally understood this and did not dare to be careless.

Quartermaster Wang Lin usually never disturbed Wu Zhi during military discussions.

If he comes at this time, he must have something important to do.

"My subordinate, Wang Hu, pays homage to Mr. Jinglue."

Wang Lin came in and immediately saluted Wu Zhi.

"Okay, why don't you come here now?"

Wu Zhi spared Wang Lin's salute and looked at him doubtfully.

Hearing this, a trace of anxiety flashed across Wang Lin's brows, and he informed Wu Zhi of the situation.

"My lord, we only have enough rations for three days."

After speaking, Wang Lin sighed.

"Three days, what's going on? Didn't the food and grass for the imperial court just arrive?"

Wu Zhi thought he heard wrongly and couldn't help asking.

"Ms. sir, just come with me and take a look."

Quartermaster Wang Lin hesitated, then shook his head and asked Wu Zhi to check it out in person.

"You wait here first, Yue Fei, come with me to take a look."

Seeing Wang Lin's expression, Wu Zhi knew something big was going on and immediately called Yue Fei to follow him.

"Quartermaster, don't you still have so much rations?"

When he came to the military ration storage place, Yue Fei saw that there was a lot of rations and he couldn't help but be confused.

"General Yue, this is the food and grass shipped to the imperial court the day before yesterday. Take a look at it."

Wang Lin smiled bitterly and opened the bag of food and grass, and there was a rustling sound inside.

When you pour it out, you will see that wherever the food is, it is all sand.

The amount of food accounts for less than one-tenth.

"Mr. Wu, the Song Dynasty is in danger of subjugating the country!"

When he saw the sand inside, Yue Fei was furious and full of disappointment in the court.

"Who brought this grain and grass?"

After Wu Zhi was startled, his expression returned to calm.

I knew in my heart that it was probably Cai Jing and Tong Guan who couldn't help but take action.

"This is Cai Chang, the new grain transport officer. He is the nephew of Prime Minister Cai Jing."

Quartermaster Wang Lin seemed to understand the twists and turns and spoke directly to the key points.

"Cai Jing, if you dare to do such things as beheading, it depends on how long you can still laugh!"

Wu Zhi had a murderous intention towards Cai Jing, and immediately sent Gu Shangfian Shiqian to collect evidence that Cai Jing had faked military rations.

Because of the shortage of military rations, the content of the military discussion was changed to how to obtain military rations.

With Cai Jing and Tong Guan intervening on the imperial court's side, even if food and grass were to be shipped again, it would definitely be sand and gravel.

Wu Zhi could only find a way on his own.

Since Cai Jing and Tong Guan are afraid of destroying Liangshan by themselves, they must destroy Liangshan themselves.

Wu Zhi thought to himself.

In order to alleviate the military food crisis, Wu Zhi ordered the quartermaster to replace three meals a day with porridge.

In this way, three days of food would last for ten days, giving him more time to prepare food.

One day was fine, but he ate porridge for three days in a row. People in the military camp began to panic.

Rumors spread that there was no food in the army.

In response, many soldiers united and demanded to see Wu Zhi.

Wu Zhi also had a headache, so he personally came forward to comfort the soldiers and ensured that the food would be delivered in three days before letting the soldiers retreat temporarily.

"Brother, do you still remember the food shortage in Liangshan?"

Just when Wu Zhi was at a loss what to do, Lin Chong woke Wu Zhi up with one word.

"The Liangshan bandits must have colluded with nearby large households and asked them to raise food for them."

Wu Zhi's eyes lit up and he immediately ordered his scouts to investigate.

It only took a day to find out that it was Li Yuanwai from Lijiazhuang who was raising food for Liangshan.

According to reports from scouts, Li Yuanwai had secretly raised tens of thousands of stones for Liangshan.

"That's great, God is helping me!"

For Wu Zhi, this is very favorable news.

As long as we grab that batch of food and grass, the army will be able to eat for at least a month.

One month was enough for him to wipe out the Liangshan bandits.

In order to protect grain and grass, Liangshan deployed many troops in Lijiazhuang.

Wu Zhi personally led the troops, ordered five thousand men and horses, and headed straight for Lijiazhuang.

Mr. Li, whose nickname is Li Futong, is a man who dares to take risks.

Others were afraid of bandits such as Song Jiang, but Li Futong dared to make friends with them.

In these days, Li Futong raised hundreds of thousands of dan to raise food and grass for Liangshanbo.

For Li Futong, it was best to keep fighting until Liang Shanbo and Wuzhi.

In this way, he can continue to make money.

"Master of the village, we have raised another two thousand shi of grain today. In this way, the 30,000 shi of grain we promised to leader Song Jiang of Liangshan has been fully achieved."

In the living room, Li Mei, the son of the family, reported to Li Futong.

"This should be the last batch of food and grass. Unfortunately, Liangshan, Songjiang and the others can no longer support it..."

Li Futong felt very regretful that Liang Shanbo was missing this stable and profitable business.

"The owner of the village does not need to sigh. There is no longer Song Jiang and Wang Jiang. As long as Liangshan is still there and bandits are inhabited, we will not worry about not having buyers." Li Mei said comfortingly.

"That's right. I, Li Futong, have experienced seven leaders, and they are all dead. I am still me, the leader of Liangshan in Liushui, and the Lijiazhuang forever!"

After hearing this, Li Futong wiped away his bad luck and laughed happily.

"Generals, listen to the order and kill all the bandits in Liangshan and transport all the food back to me!"

When Wu Zhi arrived, he happened to encounter Liangshan transporting grain to the ship.

With an order, the army rolled forward.

"No, the army is coming!"

Zhu Gui was responsible for transporting grain and grass.

Speaking of which, he was a veteran of Liangshanbo, even older than Song Jiang and Chao Gai. He was the leader of Liangshan during the Wang Lun period.

As Chao Gai, Song Jiang and others came to Liangshan, and there were more and more skilled people in Liangshanbo, Zhu Gui's position in Liangshanbo was gradually marginalized, and he only got a position as an escort to transport grain and grass.

Zhu Gui didn't have any big ambitions, and he didn't care much about who became the leader.

Although escorting grain and fodder is not a powerful job, at least it is easy.

Especially since the beginning of the war, Liang Shanbo suffered repeated defeats and lost troops and generals, so Zhu Gui felt more and more that this position was good.

But who would have thought that the Song army would come to snatch food and grass.

"kill!"

Wu Zhi and his horse are facing each other, and there is no enemy in Yihe.

Zhu Gui picked up a sword to resist, but was killed by Wu Zhi in horror.

In just one cup of tea, three thousand Liangshan grain transport troops were wiped out by the Song army.

"Don't kill me. I'll give you all the money you want!"

In addition to thirty thousand shi of grain, Wu Zhi also captured Li Futong, the owner of Lijiazhuang.

Wu Zhi ignored his plea and killed him directly.

Then they ransacked their home and confiscated nearly 300,000 yuan of property.
