Chapter one hundred and eighty-fifth each perform their duties
Another person in the Zhenbei Army who followed Su Li was surprisingly Uncle Feixuezi, who had had a lot of connections with Song Rui, the Zhenbei General.
A woman disguised as a man can capture Song Rui's heart. This uncle is also a capable person.
But she didn't ask Su Li specifically. In fact, if she hadn't come to him herself, he would have forgotten that there was such a thing.
Now it seems that Master Feixuezi is not ruthless towards Song Rui, otherwise why would he not be able to resist following Song Rui after hearing that the Zhenbei Army was almost completely wiped out?
But there was no time to talk to them now. After Ji Zheng invited Su Li and others in, he brought the conversation to business.
"Now the Zhenbei Army is in a critical situation. We not only have to find a way to defend this mountain pass, but more importantly, we must recover the lost ground as soon as possible!"
"Otherwise, if the northern land erodes, it may become a horse farm for the barbarians and a bridgehead for the Wei people to invade our Qin Dynasty from the Tianli Mountain."
Ji looks at the problem from the perspective of the entire country, not just the gains and losses of one person and his family.
"What do you lack now?" Su Li asked.
"Nothing is missing!" Song Rui answered:
"We are short of soldiers, but we are short of weapons and equipment, and we are also short of food..."
From logistical supplies to the number of soldiers, everything related to war is indeed lacking.
"You don't have to worry about food."
The old god Changchunzi interrupted, but he suddenly pointed out what he could do...solve the food problem!
This statement was particularly crucial, as it immediately made everyone who was originally worried feel at ease.
Su Li thought of the miracle of "thousands of trees and flowers blooming" and understood that his teacher must have a way to quickly harvest a large amount of food.
So the food problem was solved, and then came the issue of soldiers...
But Su Li thought of the refugee camps outside, and then said: "I think you have no shortage of soldiers. The folk customs in the North are strong, and those refugees can be good soldiers if they are armed and trained casually."
"Having said that, those refugees have never received systematic training. I'm afraid it's too late to recruit them temporarily." Ji Zheng said hesitantly.
But at this time, Liao Wei interjected with a firm tone: "Mr. Su's suggestion is very good. The people in the North are very brave. Even if they are not trained, we can definitely use battle as training at the moment. As long as we can win this defensive battle
, then they can already be called the masters of tigers and wolves.”
"In this way, the lord and General Zhenbei will have the manpower they need to regain their lost territory. Why not?"
The way of thinking of this great military strategist was truly unique. Where others saw difficulties, he saw opportunities.
"It's just recruiting civilians to fight..." Ji Zheng was still a little worried.
However, this time Song Rui said firmly and slowly:
"Don't worry, everyone, none of our northern men want to join the army. As long as we can eliminate those enemies and regain our homeland, we will pay any price!"
"Similarly, whoever can help us regain our homeland will also become our loyal supporter!"
This last sentence almost made it clear to Ji Zheng... As long as he can take back the North, the entire North will support him as the new king!
Ji Zheng may have understood, or he may have just pretended not to understand.
He just said in a solemn tone: "The soldiers and civilians of the Northland should not have to suffer this, and they are willing to advance and retreat together with the general and the people of the Northland!"
…
When a person reaches that position, his words, deeds, and actions will naturally change. Just like Ji Zheng, just like Song Rui.
Obviously they can be very straightforward, but for the benefit of the people around them, they have to say some convoluted words to achieve the so-called 'tacit understanding'.
The final strategy was actually very simple. Song Rui would be in charge of defense. Meng Zhi, who had become Ji Zheng's general, would recruit new soldiers among the refugees and conduct training.
It's very interesting. It is clear that Song Rui could definitely do better if he went to recruit troops, but neither side raised any objections to this aspect... because Ji Zheng recruited troops to prepare for himself, not to restore the size of the Zhenbei Army.
This is the difference between priority and priority. Song Rui is a smart person and will certainly not make mistakes in this regard.
Among the remaining people, Liao Wei is responsible for strategic arrangements, and Ji Zheng is responsible for appeasing the morale of the army and the people.
As for everyone in the Sword Sect, they quietly disappeared behind the scenes. What they are currently doing is solving logistical problems such as food and weapons for everyone.
This was also Su Li's self-consciousness. He didn't want Ji Zheng to think that Jian Zong was anti-customer, so he seemed particularly low-key.
While they were making intense battle arrangements, Su Li was discussing with Changchunzi and Feixuezi how to solve the food problem...
"This is easy," Changchunzi said calmly, "It's just about opening up wasteland and farming."
So the first thing Su Li was unfortunately asked to do was to carve out a field bank in the valley inside the mountain pass.
The old man Chang Chunzi said that he is only responsible for growing food, but the fields must be prepared for him first...
"I'm going to find Song Rui to prepare some soldiers to open fields for us." Fei Xuezi immediately thought of using his 'special relationship'.
"Don't worry, I probably have a solution." Su Li stopped her.
Because he does have some ideas...don't he just want to clean up this valley? He can accomplish this kind of thing by himself using earth spells.
Even if there is no special spell, can't he just create one temporarily?
"The Return of Mountains and Seas - Part 5: Earth Jue" taught him not only the simple spells, but also how to assemble a brand new spell formula for himself!
So there is this scene now...
He stepped on the ground with both feet, and the ground centered around him instantly felt like an earth dragon rolling over. The stones and surface vegetation in the ground were all destroyed and arched out. He suddenly leveled out about a hundred acres of fertile farmland.
!
Seeing this, Changchunzi nodded kindly and said, "How can good things be plowed?"
In other words, it would be better if the land could be plowed!
Originally, it would be better to plow the ground before planting... the basic operation is complete.
Su Li didn't think it was a challenge, and almost subconsciously slashed out a knife-shaped sword energy...
The next moment, the chaotic sword energy divided into many strands and swept across the hundred acres of fertile farmland... In just the blink of an eye, the field ridges were completely plowed, making them square and neat, and looked extremely comfortable.
But Feixuezi, who seemed to see something next to him, couldn't help but ask: "Senior nephew Su, what do you call the move you used to plow the land just now?"
Su Li was stunned for a moment, feeling that this matter could not be told truthfully, so he said in a hurry: "This is a new move I invented and improved, called 'Plowing Sword'!"
Feixuezi took a deep breath, and then said meaningfully: "Fortunately, you still said it is a sword technique, otherwise Teacher Xuan Yuzi would know that you actually changed his Earth-Splitting Sword into a 'Plough'
Earth Sword'... He probably won't be able to think about it!"
