Lou Shao's deputy, Xiang Yang, quickly ran into Cui Min's tent and said, "Military Advisor, General Lou still has some strength left on the southern battlefield.
But news has come in that Zhu Pin has launched a surprise attack on the eastern battlefield, and General Jin is believed to have already engaged him. General Lou is asking if you would like to send troops to support him."
Cui Min leaned back in his chair and thought for a while before saying, "Min thanks you on behalf of General Jin.
But there is no need to rush to help. The south is the main battlefield. General Lou, please make sure to guard the south.
Min will send General Ding to provide support."
After a pause, Cui Min spoke again: "And General Tong from the female barracks."
Pei Xiang, with dark circles under his eyes, nodded behind Cui Min. This was indeed the correct approach.
Jin Lie is in the east, and the closest one is the north.
The south is now Lou Shao.
On the north side are the newly promoted general Ding Wu and Tong Xin from the female barracks. General Tong is on guard.
With Fanzhou behind it, the war situation in the north would definitely not be particularly difficult, so Cui Min sent the newly promoted general Ding Wu and a small female soldier battalion to guard the area.
Because he trusted the strength of Jin and Lou, Cui Min did not send anyone to defend the northeast corner and the southeast corner.
Only then did Xiangyang run into the tent to ask this question.
But this time Zhu Pin suddenly attacked Dongfang Jinlie, and Cui Min was really afraid that he could not handle it alone, so he transferred troops from the north.
It would be most economical to have Ding Wu and Tong Xin go to provide assistance together in order to save energy and manpower.
General Tong, Tong Xin.
She performed quite well during training in the female barracks, and in the last battle with the Northern Rong Kingdom, she was the first to lead her team of soldiers into the battlefield.
When they left the battlefield, Ji Wan immediately appointed the woman named Tong Xin as the Grand Commander of Fanzhou.
Of course, this Grand Commander...has not yet entered the Government Affairs Hall. As for why?
General Tong said that she would enter the Government Affairs Office when all the female soldiers in the battalion were willing to go to the battlefield.
He is a particularly responsible and good general.
Although there were a total of one thousand female soldiers on the battlefield this time, their number was definitely not enough to form a corps.
Cui Min frowned in worry and couldn't figure out the right place to put the person for several days.
These scattered numbers of people, going to the battlefield or guarding alone, are no different from delivering food. They can only be interspersed with troops in other directions and guard and fight together with the male soldiers.
But His Highness was full of expectations for the soldiers in this female barracks. Before going on the expedition, His Highness even secretly left the Zhenbei Palace while recuperating from his injuries.
Promise made before the female soldiers go to the battlefield.
After the war, except for Tong Xin, all the female soldiers who had made meritorious service on the battlefield were promoted to the Government Affairs Office.
All! Those who have made contributions! What does it mean to be promoted to the Government Affairs Office? It means that you can go directly from a small soldier to Ji Wan's close minister.
Who wouldn't be crazy about this?
The reason His Highness gave was that the women's barracks began training and were established later than the men's barracks.
But Ji Wan wants to tell everyone in the world that the female barracks will definitely be formed faster than the male barracks.
Moreover, His Highness is very fond of General Tong Xin.
This battle was clearly a ladder that His Highness was giving Tong Xin to enter the Government Affairs Office, and to use it as a means to recruit more female soldiers in the future.
Having said that, apart from the north and east, there is Zuo Yue in the west, Gu Huafeng in the northwest, and Gong Xu in the southwest.
Cui Min's arrangements were very thorough, and even if Ji Wan came, she would not be able to find any mistakes.
"Report! Military Advisor, General Lou has advanced the battle line three miles!"
"Report! Military Advisor, General Jin has spotted enemy activity in the east. A fight has already begun."
In the tent, Cui Min and Pei Xiang received one urgent message after another from the front line and fought all night long.
They haven't had a good rest for three or four days in a row. The fighting on the front line is fierce, and it's not just them who haven't had a good rest.
The enemy dared not slack off.
The soldiers under Ji Wan were very powerful. On the battlefield, they could fight ten people at a time. Coupled with their excellent equipment, they made the enemy extremely cautious.
The enemy has not had a good rest for several days, so Cui Min and Pei Xiang cannot relax.
The soldiers cannot relax either.
This time, Cui Min brought a total of 70,000 people to attack Chuzhou, and the rest were defending Fanzhou and Qingshizhou.
There are so many of them, so fighting is relatively easy.
The result of the discussion among the counselors was to use numbers to overwhelm the enemy and capture Chuzhou as soon as possible, in preparation for attacking Qiandaozhou a year later.
That's why Cui Min was so anxious and refused to rest for a moment. If they had taken the city a day earlier, our soldiers would have had an extra day of rest.
A messenger bird outside flew in at an extremely fast speed, carrying a letter. Cui Min relaxed for a moment, turned his shoulders, and put down the paper in his hand.
He grabbed the messenger bird and took the letter from Ji Wan.
Time passed minute by minute, and just when Pei Xiang couldn't help but ask Cui Min what the prince had written.
Cui Min spoke up: “Your Highness has sent Mr. Lin and Mr. Tuoba as reinforcements.
And most importantly, Mr. Shunan intends to serve as the dean of Moxiang Academy."
"Mr. Shun'an? Rucheng's uncle? The famous Confucian scholar in Donglin Kingdom?" Pei Xiang rubbed his tired eyes in surprise.
"Yes, and my uncle also brought many of Min's fellow apprentices with him. They will study with the children of Moxiang Academy."
Cui Min said calmly, but his back was already sweating from excitement.
After Pan Hui and Yu He came to Ji Wan's men, Cui Min felt much more relaxed.
He was no longer busy with Pan Yuqing, Cao Xingzhi and the other two. He was busy teaching at Moxiang Academy and handling government affairs.
Mr. Shunan has chosen to be the dean of His Royal Highness's Academy. From now on, the affairs of the academy will naturally be handled by my uncle and Senior Brother Yuzhan.
And with Mr. Shunan’s reputation, there is no need to worry about Fanzhou not producing great scholars!
What a rich cultural heritage! It can attract so many scholars from all over the world.
"This, this is really God helping our lord!" Pei Xiang and Cui Min thought the same thing. Pincheng was in such a state because of the epidemic.
Thanks to Ji Wan for saving Pincheng from danger, the people found a place to live and many ways to make a living.
When Pei Xiang saw the peaceful and prosperous lives of people in other cities in Fanzhou, he was certain that he and Ji Wan actually shared the same political views.
It's all for the people, but His Highness has done much better than him, so Pei Xiang really hopes that Ji Wan will be well, and Ji Wan's well-being means the people will be well.
This perfectly fulfilled his original hope when he entered the officialdom.
"We must speed up our pace and strive to take over Chuzhou before June!"
Chuzhou is a small prefecture with only a few scattered cities.
Apart from Gancheng and Taozhen, there is only Chuncheng, which is covered with farmland.
Chuzhou is a place for military farming, with Chuncheng being the most important.
In other words, Chuzhou was the granary in the war between Beirong and Donglin, and Chuncheng was an even bigger granary.
The land is vast and sparsely populated, and it is all farmland, so it is naturally not difficult for 70,000 soldiers to fight.
