After capturing Qizhou City, the rebel army expanded further.
To address the logistical supply issues, Song Gongming and Wuu Yong, after discussions, decided to first consolidate uninhabited wasteland as military farmland.
Then, from the troops, separate out the old, weak, sick, and injured to cultivate these lands.
Taxes would naturally be lower than the Imperial Court's, following Wuu Yong's suggestion, the model of Liangshan Island should be emulated.
Focus on commerce, especially industry.
In this way, they can break free from the shackles of an agricultural economy.
Even without land, the rebel army would not lack money and food.
On Liangshan Island, there are specialized civilian machines, which can be purchased to establish factories.
However, these issues are not urgent; although Qizhou City has been captured, other counties within Qizhou territory have not been taken.
Among them, two places are the most difficult.
One is Lingzhou, the other is Deng State.
