Lin Chanhua stretched out her hand.
Ji Wan looked forward in the direction of her finger and found that the small seedlings originally planted on the entire plot of land in front of him had all re-emerged.
In the yellow sand, there seems to be a bit of fresh green.
Ji Wan took a few steps forward and lowered his head. "The leaves are a little wilted. Could it be that they've been buried in the sand for a while?"
Lin Chanhua simply looked up at the sky and said, "It's the sun. These seedlings haven't seen the sun for a long time."
Ji Wan suddenly realized and looked around at the sky covered with yellow sand.
The dust was so severe that you couldn't tell whether it was day or night.
It is so gloomy that these seedlings cannot grow without sunlight.
"It's okay, Chanhua, if it doesn't work, just stack the formations and create an artificial sun for these seedlings.
Let's plant more seedlings and see if we can control the sandstorms next year.
If you plant more plants, even if it is a desert, I can turn it into an oasis!
As long as we can temporarily solve the problem of seedlings and plants taking root, it will be fine."
Lin Chanhua was surprised. She raised her head and asked curiously, "Your Highness, aren't you afraid that three such large states and counties will consume all the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins?"
Ji Wan squatted down and slowly placed his fingers on the still young green leaves.
His expression was more resolute: "I have to take a gamble. It would be fine if I didn't know that the desert can turn into an oasis before.
But I know, I have seen it with my own eyes!"
In her previous life, she had seen it on the computer and knew about the flower growers' feat of turning the desert into an oasis.
What she had in her previous life, she also wants to bring to the people in this life.
So, she had to give it a try anyway.
Lin Chanhua shrugged, but didn't say much. She turned around and went to prepare materials to draw the formation.
-----------------
The next day.
Government Affairs Office.
"Defeat? How many of our people were killed?" Ji Wan slammed his palm on the table in front of him.
The brush on the table jumped and rolled to the ground. The ink-soaked tip of the brush hit the ground, splashing a pool of black ink.
Sui Ruoxu unfolded the letter a little more: "We suffered over a thousand casualties... The enemy counterattacked and recaptured a city."
"Over a thousand casualties? A counterattack to recapture a city?" Ji Wan took a deep breath, feeling sad.
"Are you all right, gentlemen? Do you know who is leading the enemy troops?"
Ji Wan couldn't wait any longer, so he limped over to Sui Ruoxu to check the battle report.
It said that the enemy army was led by a general named Ren Jin.
The military advisor is called Tong Feipeng. He has a fair complexion and no beard. Although he is young, he is vicious and cunning, making him difficult to guard against.
Moreover, Cao Ke was shot in the thigh in panic when the enemy soldiers broke into the city.
The city that was recaptured was Bibo City in Chen County, which was the prefecture where the Xie family was located.
After reading ten lines at a glance, Ji Wan frowned and said, "Hurry up and take Xingzhi back to the sanatorium in Bincheng for treatment. Don't delay."
The news that Weixiao and Zhongyang sent back earlier mentioned that the Xie and Cui families had joined forces. It's likely that Ren Jin and Tong Feipeng were the candidates sent by the two parties together."
Having said that, Ji Wan took a deep breath and continued, "Now that the city has been lost, it's useless to say anything.
Ruoxu immediately told Pan Zhuo that he must not defend to the death.
The soldiers have just experienced a defeat and their morale is shaken. It is too difficult to hold on stubbornly.
Tell him to be careful and retreat if he can't. I can accept the loss of the city, but I absolutely cannot accept the death of soldiers."
Sui Ruoxu responded and picked up the pen and ink.
Yan Penan over there cast a spell to summon the messenger bird, which landed in front of Sui Ruoxu.
His cultivation level is much lower now than before, so he naturally cannot summon the messenger bird.
You can only ask others for help.
Here, Ji Wan raised her hand and wrist: "Mei Niang, Chenjun was defeated and urgently needs reinforcements. You should pack up and prepare to take some soldiers with you."
Then, Ji Wan quickly summoned the messenger bird, wrote a few big words quickly, and clamped it in the bird's beak.
She sent a message to Gong Xu and Zuo Yue, who were far away in the capital, saying, "Chen County was defeated.
"The two gentlemen are trying their best to provoke a war between the royal families and the imperial family. I need the royal capital to urgently dispatch troops to defend the city."
This idea was not a spur-of-the-moment decision made by Ji Wan, but was already planned when Gong Xu and Zuo Yue were sent out.
I originally wanted to wait until the enemy was pushed to the last step before using this move.
However, he did not expect that the current situation is completely different from what he expected. He could not wait any longer and had to use it to relieve the pressure on the soldiers of Chen County.
As for why?
This was because her soldiers had never been defeated before, and if they were suddenly defeated in a battle, they might lose their morale completely if they weren't careful.
If the soldiers fail to adjust themselves mentally, they will be devastated, so they must act cautiously.
Of course she had to do it if she could. By then, she would have time to call the soldiers back and adjust her mindset.
Thinking of this, Ji Wan raised his wrist again and said to Cui Min's chat box: "Rucheng, Chenjun has been defeated. If the situation on your side allows, be ready to retreat and provide support at any time."
Cui Zhe looked up and found that Ji Wan had arranged many matters in an orderly manner within a quarter of an hour. He couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart.
If it were Ji Ze, wouldn't he scold the defeated soldiers first?
"Don't worry, Your Highness. There are several generals watching over there on the battlefield. It will be no problem to hold on for the time being.
Moreover, the Donglin Kingdom is now full of princes who have declared themselves kings.
They can't just sit there and watch the Queen Mother deploy all her forces to Chen County without turning their attention to the royal capital."
Ji Wan nodded: "But I am still worried.
Before, it would have been fine if the soldiers under my command had suffered defeat.
But this was their first defeat, and it was such a tragic one. If they were not careful, the morale of the army would easily be broken.
That's when it gets dangerous.
By the way, Mr. Weixian, please prepare as well. If the situation in Chen County gets worse, and Rucheng goes to support us, I'll need you to take over Rucheng's business."
Cui Zhe nodded, and thinking of Ji Wan's mood at the moment, he wisely didn't say anything more.
"Oh, right, there are only a few people in charge of the Government Affairs Office right now, so I can only stay in charge and can't go to the front line. I asked Afeng and Shuangyi to go and help."
After saying that, Ji Wan once again passed the information to Tuoba Feng and Yun Shuangyi using the same method.
There is Yang Guan on the battlefield of Chen County now, but the enemy also has a Ren Jin. That person is a sword cultivator. He fought with Yang Guan and others for a long time and was able to hold his own.
I don’t know what level of cultivation he has now, so it’s better to be careful.
Outside Chen County.
Yang Guan had already repelled the twelfth wave of enemy troops in a row.
They had just arrived in Chen County a few days ago and had already taken over Bi Bo City at lightning speed.
