Qiguan Rang sighed. He tugged Feng Jins sleeve and whispered something to him.

Their Lord would never listen to the advice of others on principle matters.

They would support her decisions, as long as they were not made out of anger.

In fact, if she considered the big picture and chose to give up the 2,000 troops, Qiguan Rang and the others would be bitterly disappointed.

Prepare for war! Jiang Pengji had an icy look on her face. Well kill them a hundred times the amount of troops theyve killed!

Xu Ke sighed. He felt that there were going to be many days like this in the future.

Since youve made up your mind, Ill obey you.

Meng Hun took the initiative to submit a request for a military assignment with a sincere look on his face. Lord, you must let me tag along this time.

The troops were not just Jiang Pengjis private soldiers, but Meng Huns soldiers. He had devoted countless efforts to their training.

He had to kill the enemy himself and erase his humiliation with the enemys blood.

Jiang Pengjis fingers interlocked. Sitting in the front seat, she said, Coach Meng will rescue the troops with me. Wen Zheng will be in charge of the defense in the district.

Luo Yue could not help but submit a request for a military assignment. District Magistrate Liu, please

Jiang Pengji interrupted him and said, Its true that I want to save the troops, but I cant ignore the lives of the people in the Xiangyang District because of this. The Tsing Yi Army obviously wants revenge. I dont want to lose the 2,000 troops or any of you.

After that, she got up in a manner that allowed no room for doubt and went to the backyard.

Feng Jin and Xu Ke shifted their gazes towards Qiguan Rang.

They had known Jiang Pengji for a long time; Qiguan Rang could not compare to them at all. However, she was more inclined to Qiguan Rang in proper business, especially when it came to war. This time, she gave him the deployment rights of the district. Such trust was rare. Her decision surprised Qiguan Rang, Feng Jin, and Xu Ke.

Get ready. The Lord doesnt like to procrastinate.

Xu Ke was the housekeeper, so he usually had to handle a lot of tasks. That included the preparations for war.

Feng Jin smiled with a sigh. Ill go count the weapons used for the defense of the city.

Qiguan Rang laughed bitterly in secret. He left with Meng Hun, frowning.

Meng Hun walked with him halfway and spoke hesitantly, Mr. Wen Zheng, the Lords move is a bit

In all fairness, when it came to the statuses of the three strategistsFeng Jin, Xu Ke, and Qiguan RangQiguan Rang was probably the lowest among them.

However, Jiang Pengji did not hide her bias. People who were not blind could see it.

Meng Hun was worried about internal discord, which would create a barrier between them.

A feud between scholars was scarier than that of soldiers.

Qiguan Rang could not help but chuckle upon hearing his words. Dont worry, Coach Meng. They know it well in their hearts.

Huh? Meng Hun was a simpleminded man. He could not process what Qiguan Rang meant. Did the Lord do it on purpose?

Look. Xiaoyu is proficient in internal affairs. No matter how awful the mess is, he can handle them. Huaiyu has a good command in diplomatic governance, but the Lord still has a weak foundation, so Im unsure of his ability. Speaking of this, Qiguan Rang added somewhat helplessly, Im good at adapting, so Im suitable for the battlefield. The Lord knows everyones merits and shortcomings well. It will make Huaiyu and the others happy.

In terms of making battle arrangements, they all knew how, but all of them had merits and shortcomings.

It was obviously safer to let Qiguan Rang defend the city.

If they were stupid and narrow-minded people, they would have ill feelings. However, Xu Ke and Feng Jin were different. Qiguan Ruang was not worried.

Oh, so thats how it is. I thought about it too much, Meng Hun responded, embarrassed.

Qiguan Rang sighed. It was not wrong, but he really did not want to stand out. However, he had no control over the current situation. He would lose his life if he did not take the lead. He had to guard the Xiangyang District!

Fortunately, the defense weapons of the Xiangyang District were still there, and they had recruited many soldiers over the last few days. He still had some confidence.

Qiguan Rang was not as unprofessional as the Tsing Yi Army. Jiang Pengji would have it easy if she broke through the city defense he set up.

Xu Ke completed the pre-war preparations in less than two hours. Thousands of troops were ready to go. Each of them brought enough grain for six days.

Jiang Pengji said, Kill the entire Tsing Yi Army! Lets bring all the guys back!

The summer wind was hot. Everyone heard her commands.

It was like a boulder was sitting on everyones shoulders.

Kill the Tsing Yi Army! Bring the guys back! Meng Hun shouted, suppressing his voice.

Kill the Tsing Yi Army! Bring the guys back!

Kill the Tsing Yi Army! Bring the guys back!

Kill the Tsing Yi Army! Bring the guys back!

The uniform, deafening cries resounded, and their anger erupted.

Lets set off!

Carrying heavy loads on their backs for a long-range raid was normal for the troops. Ordinary people were short of breath when they ran for three or four miles; however, the troops hardly sweat.

They carried improved arrows, a quiver, water, and grain for the next few days. The weight of their packs could not compare to their normal load. It was easier for them.

Standing at the city gate, Qiguan Rang heaved a long sigh. He watched the troops and Jiang Pengji disappear, then ordered someone to step up their defense strategy.

He initially thought that their current situation would stabilize over the next six months. He accepted that he had work overtime.

However, the Tsing Yi Army was witless and provoked Jiang Pengji.

She held grudges; she would definitely kill every person in Tsing Yi Army in Fengyi County.

Looks like Im doomed to work all my life, he muttered. He was worried as he looked into the distance.

You must return safely!

After traveling for four hours, Jiang Pengji asked the troops to stop and refresh themselves. She rolled out the Great Universal Geographical Map of Fengyi County.

Meng Hun panted heavily and asked, Lord, which direction should we head next?

It was hot. Even though the loads on their backs were not heavy, the travel was exhausting.

Meng Hun was depressed. The troop member that risked his life did not have time to tell them where the rest of the troops were.

The terrain of Fengyi County was complicated. The troop member was an outsider. It was good that he managed to find the Xiangyang District to tell them what happened. How could he expect anything else?

Therefore, their only choice was to find their location by themselves. It undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the rescue mission.

If they made a wrong judgment, went the wrong way, and wasted time, it might be too late.

Buyao Heshibile: I hope that they can make it in time. Otherwise, the troops will die in vain.

Jingpin Kuaizi: Im praying that they make it in time. Otherwise, I cant imagine how psycho the streamer will get.
