Famine Year: I Help the Beautiful Female General Build Infrastructure

A ceramic jar became sentient, knowledgeable of past and present. Wang Yan relied on this ceramic jar to befriend an ancient beautiful female general.

Her name was Tan Junyan, a legend of the...

Chapter 10 Wang Yan's strategy to expand military forces

"My Tan family army fought bloody battles against the barbarian invasion, but most of them were killed or wounded. Out of 280,000 soldiers, only 100,000 remain."

"They've dedicated their lives to protecting this city and the Holy Dragon Dynasty. They live from today to tomorrow, and every meal they eat could be their last. Shouldn't they be well fed?"

"If I don't eat enough, how can I have the energy to protect you?"

"Without the Tan family army guarding this place, you would have long been eaten by the barbarian army."

"Pengshui City is the last line of defense of the Holy Dragon Dynasty. Once it is captured, the entire country will be plunged into an even more horrific disaster."

"Only cowards complain. If you have the courage, join the army. If you dare to defend your homeland, I will ensure that your family will not starve."

The people nearby had different expressions when they heard this.

Some people looked excited, while others rolled their eyes, considering whether to join the army.

“Pah.”

The porridge boy knocked on the table and said, "Why, are you not even as good as a woman?"

"General Tan is a lady from a wealthy family. She should have been protected in seclusion, but she led the army, charged into battle, and defended the border to the death."

"And you, as seven-foot-tall men, live under the protection of a woman."

"You rely on her charity every day to survive. Are you still a man?"

When the people heard this, they all felt ashamed.

"Pengshui City is our home. Why can't we do our part to protect it?"

An old woman couldn't help but stand up.

"Although I am an old woman and cannot fight in the battlefield, I am willing to mend clothes and do laundry for the soldiers, and I am also willing to help with logistics."

"And me..."

A ragged old man took two steps forward.

"Tan's army lost 180,000 men defending the city and for us. 180,000 men!"

"They were all young, vibrant lives who died for us!"

"Although I am old, I am willing to serve in the army and live and die with the soldiers of the Tan family."

"I'm willing to join the army too." The burly man who had complained before glanced at the crowd with red eyes.

"Are you even worse than the elderly and women?"

"Who says we are inferior to the elderly and women? We are also willing to join the army."

"The city is destroyed and the family is ruined. Why should we not be willing?"

"I'm going to die a full-fledged ghost, don't stop me, I'll be the first to sign up."

"Join the army to protect my home and fight to the death against the barbarian army."

The people were in high spirits and expressed their opinions one after another.

Tan Junyan was a little overwhelmed by what she saw.

If they all join the army, can the god husband support them all?

"Coach, coach..."

At this time, Ziyang ran over again, "Your husband gave me some water, and this time the amount of water was particularly large."

"There's water."

“Ahh…”

The people became even more excited.

Due to years of severe drought, the riverbeds have dried up and many people die of hunger and thirst every day.

Water is as precious as food.

If there is always water, we can not only solve our living problems, but also grow food.

"Those who want to join the army should go to the Third Battalion in the north of the city to sign up."

"If you want water, go to the back of the General's Mansion. There is a reservoir there for you."

Tan Junyan said this decisively to everyone.

"Thank you, General Tan."

"General Tan, who is your husband?"

The people were very confused. Her husband was so powerful that he could let the water go.

"General Tan, may I have a moment with you?"

Without waiting for Tan Junyan to answer everyone, Chen Hu walked over.

Tan Junyan did not object and quickly distanced herself from the crowd.

"Following your instructions, I ordered my men to follow Gao Zhanfeng, and indeed, I discovered something fishy..."

Without Tan Junyan asking any questions, Chen Hu took the initiative to report the situation.

"Late last night, Gao Zhanfeng sneaked out of the city through a dog hole and only returned this morning."

"I suspected he was a spy for the Barbarian Army, so I took matters into my own hands and arrested him."

"After a few lashes, the fellow confessed everything."

"Gao Zhanfeng has indeed defected to the barbarians."

"He is responsible for reporting our situation to the barbarians every day, and the barbarians will give him food as a reward."

"Sun Lao San caused trouble, and Little Li's body was dug up. It was all his doing."

Tan Junyan frowned upon hearing this, "Where is Gao Zhanfeng?"

Chen Hu said truthfully: "He just came back not long ago and is sleeping at home!"

Tan Junyan's face turned cold, "Catch him and his accomplices."

Our numbers are no match for the barbarians, and it would be very disadvantageous if they knew our movements.

"yes."

Chen Hu agreed decisively.

"etc."

When Tan Junyan saw Chen Hu was about to leave, she stopped him.

Chen Hu bowed slightly, "Commander, do you have any other instructions?"

"I'll ask my husband before I make a decision."

"You continue to have people keep an eye on Gao Zhanfeng, including his minions and generals."

"Remember, don't alert the enemy."

Tan Junyan changed her mind and decided to wait until the water was released before asking the gods.

After all, the wisdom of gods is incomparable to that of humans.

"Hello, is this Mr. Zhou from the chicken factory?"

"I'll take all your 100,000 broiler chickens."

"If you know other farmers, you can introduce them to me. I will buy any chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep or pigs."

"Of course, I won't let you work in vain. You will definitely be paid for your hard work."

Wang Yan was lying on a rocking chair in the warehouse, making a phone call while the twelve-inch water pipe was pouring water into the tank.

In order to hide the secret of the porcelain jar, the maintenance master deliberately opened a hole in the wall of the warehouse, and the water pipe entered the warehouse directly.
