Chapter 209 – One Thousand Deserters
October 27th.
7 AM.
The Imperial Army left Nie County and continued their journey to Jinyang today. Liu Ping managed to extort tributes from the locals and the Prefect of the city. He also conscripted more troops for his crusade. From the 130,000 men, it increased by another 30,000 men from the nobles' private soldiers, townsmen, mercenaries, and slaves.
The provision life of Liu Ping Army increased by a month, which was more than enough last until the end of December.
From Liu Ping's point of view, he could extort more from Jinyang and any county along the way to Julu. Therefore, food was not his concern anymore.
'Jinyang City has Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun. I want to recruit these guys to my side,' Liu Ping thought.
