In ten days, they captured the Fanzhou Stone City, which had been under attack for decades by the entire Beirong Kingdom!
The counselors around him also showed a relaxed expression at the same time. They stood up from their seats and bowed to Ji Wan: "Congratulations, Your Highness!"
His smile was filled with admiration, and Cao Ke was completely impressed: "Your Highness and Mr. Rucheng are so good at planning and strategizing. I admire them."
Among them, Zuo Yue and Gong Xu felt the most deeply. They had been with Ji Wan even shorter than Cao Ke, and they saw with their own eyes that every suggestion put forward by Ji Wan and his subordinates was very pertinent, detailed, and even flawless and meticulous.
Ji Wan could even improve on the strategies proposed by the advisory group.
Although there were many unexpected events, fortunately we won, and won so quickly.
After mounting their horses in an indescribable manner, Ji Wan and Yang Guan led the remaining 10,000 soldiers to Shicheng.
Accompanied by the stench of blood, Ji Wan stepped into the Chief Secretary's Mansion in Shicheng.
Jiang Jian and Pan Zhuo went to do psychological work on the soldiers. Ji Wan took the time to ask Cui Min, "Are there any soldiers who made mistakes? If so, they will be severely punished this time!"
Cui Min nodded and whispered in Ji Wan's ear: "Don't worry, Your Highness. I will tell them that whoever reports the crime and confirms it will receive all the military benefits of the person reported."
Ji Wan: “…”
When it comes to being cunning, she still can't compare to these ancient foxes!
Cui Min added cryptically, "I've already had someone act out a scene, so I'm not afraid they won't take the bait."
Ji Wan: “…”
Okay, okay, okay, okay. It turns out that she is the most innocent person in this world.
The people in the city were as quiet as quails. Ji Wan called Jiang Jian and asked him to comfort the people in the city temporarily and let them go home after registering them at dawn tomorrow.
Then he installed a barrier anchor point for Xiao Ling in this city.
In this way, Xiao Ling can control the formation of Qingshizhou while controlling the stone city of Fanzhou.
Now, like the children in Moxiang Academy, it is very easy for her to draw a small formation by herself.
Of course, since Ji Wan had Xiao Ling, he felt that formations and barriers were the same. Xiao Ling could control barriers and formations at the same time, so Ji Wan could do the same.
Ji Wan had been lying on the bed to rest, but before she had been lying there for a quarter of an hour, Xiao Ling started yelling that one more city would use up spiritual power and that the spiritual power in the spiritual vein was not enough.
The noise gave Ji Wan a headache and he gave up the idea of sleeping. With frightening dark circles under his eyes, he went to discuss with Lin Chanhua and Tuoba Feng what to do.
Ah, it feels like I haven't slept for a whole day and night. I'm so sleepy! If I keep this up any longer, I'll probably die suddenly like in my previous life.
Holding the still howling Xiao Ling, Ji Wan went to see Lin Chanhua and Tuoba Feng, who were working overtime to draw the city defense formation. "Chanhua, Afeng, Xiao Ling said that if we expand the formation to another city, we won't have enough spiritual power."
Tuoba Feng's expression went blank after hearing this.
After being able to use his spiritual power freely for such a long time, he completely ignored the issue of how much spiritual power he had.
Lin Chanhua frowned and said, "My disciple and I can only draw a spirit gathering array. As for the array that regenerates spiritual energy, it is too difficult. Unless we can find some spiritual flowers and fruits and grow them for hundreds of years to produce a trace of spiritual energy... But the spiritual energy required to regenerate spiritual flowers and fruits is much greater!"
Hundreds of years... Ji Wan's mouth twitched.
True. Scientific research expert. Lin Chanhua. Another clueless matter...
Ji Wan sighed and mentally poked the system frantically: "System! System! Do you still have any spiritual veins? No matter how big or small it is!"
"No, do you think spiritual veins can be obtained casually? If this spiritual vein was not a companion of the little spirit, you wouldn't even have a spiritual vein now." The electronic voice of the system rang mercilessly in Ji Wan's mind.
Companion creature? No wonder this spiritual vein is the only one that can help anyone draw Qi into their body, regardless of their aptitude!
I asked Yang Guan but he also had no clue.
Unable to resolve the spiritual power issue immediately, Xiao Ling wisely shut up.
This matter was not only worrying Xiao Ling, but Ji Wan was also worried. Worried, Ji Wan could only comfort Xiao Ling temporarily, and planned to find some solutions for Xiao Ling in detail after waking up tomorrow.
Whether it is the resettlement of the people in the city or the spiritual power of Xiao Ling, we will talk about it tomorrow!
Now! She! Wants! To! Sleep!
The night was deep, and after falling asleep, Ji Wan always felt that the weather was getting colder and colder, so he subconsciously pulled out the quilt beside him and wrapped himself in it.
November 13th, two days away from Ji Wan’s birthday.
The temperature in Shicheng began to drop after Ji Wan broke through the city gate.
"It's not my illusion..." The cold wind made Ji Wan subconsciously tighten his cloak and reach out to catch a crystal snowflake, feeling the snowflake melt into tiny drops of moisture.
After a night's rest, Ji Wan was taken to the city center by his subordinates early in the morning in the heavy snow to solve the resettlement problem of the people in Shicheng.
Ji Wan walked around the ruins in the city for a quarter of an hour before reaching the square in the middle of the stone city.
The people in the city were extremely worried. Princess Yongkang didn't massacre the entire city. Was she going to make them slaves? Or was she going to do something else?
Some parents who had girls of marriageable age subconsciously hid their girls' faces tightly, fearing that the soldiers surrounding them would be tempted by their beauty and suddenly attack them.
Some of the older ones worried that if they became Ji Wan's slaves, or were forced to work in the mines, they would surely die, and there would be no chance of returning to their roots...
As for the young and middle-aged men in the city... they had long been forced by Wu Run to defend the city.
Looking at the many nervous, anxious and uneasy faces in front of him, Ji Wan was rarely silent for a while. Finally, Yang Guan secretly pinched his wrist and he came back to his senses.
He cleared his throat and said, "Fellow villagers, I will not kill innocent people, nor will I make you slaves without human rights. After my men have recorded your home addresses and circumstances, I will let you go home. If anyone in your family has been drafted to defend the city, you can go to the prisoner-of-war camp and bring them back. If your house in the city is damaged, you can temporarily live in the county magistrate's residence."
Ji Wan paused for a moment, then turned to look at the relatively upright Pan Zhuo and added.
"Mr. Yuqing, you go and handle this. Keep an eye out for any lost items in the homes of the common people. If anyone in our army takes it, there's no need to report it; we'll just punish them by military law. If it's the Shicheng defenders who took it, you take the villagers and go to the prisoner-of-war camp to see if you can recover it."
"yes!"
The people's expressions finally relaxed a lot, and they turned around and were quietly organized to line up near Jiang Jian and Cao Ke to register their population.
Many people subconsciously wiped their eyes when they turned around. The three members of the family supported and comforted each other, and held each other's hands tightly in gratitude.
