Lu Yu glanced at the others. Whether it was Fu Zhixue or Song Qinhu, they seemed to be used to this matter.
Lu Yu suddenly realized that the experiences of these people were completely different from Lu Yu's.
Fu Zhixue, who came from the humblest family here, also came from a family of cultivators. His father was a famous Confucian of his generation and a great Confucian scholar.
These people are monks from the moment they are born.
They have mastery of magic power and can manipulate spiritual power for their own use. Although they keep talking about petitioning and making decisions for the people, they have never experienced real mortal life.
In Lu Yu's last life, he truly came from a mortal step by step.
He was just a little beggar in a mountain temple before, and he didn't have enough to eat. The first bite of meat was the greatest happiness in the world.
Lu Yu closed his eyes and could still think of the despair he once felt.
The two monks fought so hard that the earth collapsed and the mountains were destroyed, causing the river dam to break and floods to submerge the entire mortal city. At that time, the mortals really felt their own insignificance.
"It shouldn't be like this."
Lu Yu shook his head. Even though he now holds a high position and has superior strength, he still has not forgotten the hardships and sufferings suffered by ordinary people.
Lu Yu suddenly thought of the scene he encountered on the Taiping Star before and asked: "Not all places have been affected by the disaster. I think the Taiping Star Mansion is safe and sound."
The quartermaster said with a wry smile on his face: "It's useless. The imperial court has issued an order not to allow various places to transfer grain to us."
"What?"
Song Qinhu's temper suddenly rose: "We are fighting on the front line. Not only do they not send food to us, they also don't allow other places to give us food. What does the court mean?"
The quartermaster quickly explained: "It is said that this is the new intention of the imperial court, in order to mobilize all food to protect the people's livelihood."
It's a bit ridiculous to say this sentence.
The territory controlled by the Dayu court was extremely broad, and the food provided by the Imperial Palace alone was enough to feed the huge army.
This is just an excuse. The superficial attitude of Zhao Yuanyan's court has been quite clear, which is to weaken the strength of the local army.
Lu Yu took a deep breath and asked: "After three days, there is no food, what should I do?"
At this time, the professionalism of the military reserve will be tested.
The quartermaster said: "After three days, except for the main front-line army, the rations of all members of the reserve army will be halved, and then halved again on the fifth day. This will last for another three days at most."
"What happens after that?"
"Then you need to use Bigu Pill."
The quartermaster took out a pill from his arms and sent it to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu knew what this was.
In the Imperial City, some aristocratic ladies from high-ranking families would take this Bigu Pill in order to stay in shape.
Eating one pill will give you a strong feeling of fullness, and you won't feel hungry even if you don't eat for two or three days.
But this kind of thing can deceive the brain, but it will cause considerable damage to the human body.
What's more, soldiers in the army need to carry out a lot of physical activities every day. Bigu Dan cannot solve the problem at all. It may cause people to starve to death without feeling hungry.
"It's time to make a quick decision."
Lu Yu stood up and said loudly: "Tomorrow, the Qianlong Army will launch a general attack. I hope you can help me."
Several other governors stood up and agreed, with solemn expressions on their faces.
As the night fell, Lu Yu's expression was solemn, always staring at Wanli Xiongguan in the distance.
