After sending Zhou Qing off to war, Lu Yuan's Barracks outside of Luyang City suddenly became half-empty.
He originally had 15,000 soldiers under his command, plus 5,000 Linwu county people and Seven Star Sect disciples forming the First Camp. Now that Zhou Qing took away 10,000 soldiers, there were only 5,000 soldiers and 5,000 First Camp left in the camp.
With the military strength reduced by half, the combat power was reduced even more, which made Lu Yuan suddenly feel less secure.
So, in order to fill the sense of security and also to strengthen his strength, the recruitment plan that he had always planned was put on the agenda.
Nowadays, Lu Yuan does not lack silver. After a fight against the thieves, he has accumulated over one million current silvers and nearly two million silver taels worth of assets, besides the funds to support the development of Luyang Prefecture.
