This piece of news spread throughout Lingzhou Prefecture, but it did not cause any big waves.
Many discerning people can see that if Lingzhou City can be guarded behind closed doors, the evil cultivators outside must have reached a certain level.
After all, if it was an ordinary rebellion, according to the temper of the imperial court, I am afraid it would have been suppressed out of town long ago.
After the news was released, very few people signed up, and most of them were down-and-out casual cultivators.
These casual cultivators are either because they are old or have poor qualifications, and there are no sects outside to take them in. The Dayu Army usually has very high requirements for entry, and it is difficult for them to get in.
Fortunately, now that the military recruitment order has come out, only the level of the military is considered, regardless of qualifications, so enlisting in the army has become a rare opportunity for these casual cultivators.
On the first day, the entire Lingzhou Prefecture increased its troops by three thousand.
Luo Ming told Lu Yu that the overall strength of these three thousand people was not high, and they had not been systematically trained. Once a war started, they would probably flee in all directions, making it difficult for them to take on a major role.
Lu Yu said: "Let those people form a battalion and patrol the city to maintain order. The next people to be recruited, let them be responsible for logistics and transportation, and transfer all the elite garrison troops to the city wall!"
He had no other choice.
The game that the prince arranged for him was a dead end!
The so-called dead end means that Lu Yu is not given any way to recover, and Lu Yu must die without a burial place.
The assessment of the imperial examination lasts for a full year.
But now, only three days have passed, and Lu Yu is already under pressure to die.
Lu Yu himself would not be affected at all by dying in Huang Liang's dream, just like waking up from a nightmare, with at most only some palpitations.
But at that time, Lu Yu would become the first person in the entire Yu Dynasty to fail in the palace examination. No matter what achievements he has in the future, this will become a stain on his life, and may even affect his Taoist heart.
Although these people recruited are difficult to take on important tasks, they can relieve the pressure on the defenders.
"Some of the new recruits have impure motives. I'm worried that these people may cause some trouble in the city." Qin Yu also expressed his worries.
To truly join the Dayu Army, recruits must undergo at least half a year of training, master basic coordination, and be fully integrated into the Dayu Army.
Monks in the Middle Ages emphasized freedom and freedom. But now, times have changed. Those monks who are free and carefree are either strong men at their peak, or some undisciplined people with no future.
And half a year was enough to completely bind the hearts of all the monks to Dayu's army.
Lu Yu thought for a moment and said: "You can't control so much now. You don't need to be suspicious of the people you use. You can continue to recruit people, but you can't assign them all to one place. In addition, you can send a few confidants to keep an eye on this group of people at all times."
Some important and confidential places still need to be guarded by our trusted people."
Qin Yu understood what Lu Yu meant and went to do it immediately.
Five days have passed, and there is still no movement from the rebels outside.
And taking advantage of these five days, Lu Yu recruited tens of thousands of people, and the recruitment requirements were lowered from the out-of-body realm to the mana realm.
It is definitely not possible for these people to defend the city, but it is more than enough for them to patrol the city and maintain order.
In Lingzhou City, soldiers patrolling everywhere can be seen.
Even during the day, the sound of military boots on the ground echoed in the streets everywhere.
