Chapter 256 Disbelief



After the city gates were opened.

Ye Qingcheng then led Qingyi and Ningxin into the city.

Wen Shifeng, accompanied by his lieutenants, came down from the city wall and sized up Ye Qingcheng.

Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "General Wen, you have never met me before, so it is understandable that you are suspicious of me. However, the war is urgent now. Although the soldiers have taken medicine, it will take several days to recover. Therefore, in order to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation, I still have to come."

After hearing this, Wen Shifeng still had some doubts, but as Ye Qingcheng said, the war was urgent and all the soldiers had lost their fighting ability. If they were not restored quickly, the border might not be safe. So after thinking it over again, he invited her into the military camp.

now.

The soldiers in the camp were all slumped on the ground, listless and exhausted.

Ye Qingcheng frowned, deeply worried, as she looked at the tens of thousands of soldiers in extremely poor condition.

"Well? Is there any way?" Wen Shifeng asked Ye Qingcheng.

Ye Qingcheng shook her head: "There are too many people. I can only do my best."

"Try your best?"

“That’s right, General Wen. Could you please set up a tent for me so that the soldiers can line up in order and come into my tent for me to perform acupuncture?”

"Acupuncture?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Shifeng frowned slightly, clearly suspicious.

Ye Qingcheng smiled: "General Wen, if you continue to have doubts, the enemy might attack..."

"Report..."

Before Ye Qingcheng could finish speaking, a soldier rushed over and shouted.

Wen Shifeng turned to look at the soldier: "What is it?"

"Reporting to the general, the scouts have reported that the enemy has amassed another 100,000 troops and is rushing towards us. They are only ten miles away now."

"What? Quickly...quickly...gather all the soldiers with fighting ability, bring bows and crossbows, and guard the city walls."

Lieutenant General Li, Lieutenant General Ji, you will come with me to the camp to discuss strategies for dealing with the enemy.

"Yes...yes..."

"Wait!" Ye Qingcheng called out.

"Um?"

Wen Shifeng looked at Ye Qingcheng with a puzzled expression, then his face darkened.

"Although I do not know whether you are truly a princess, even if you are a princess, you cannot interfere in military affairs."

Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "General Wen, I don't mean to interfere in your military affairs, but rather to offer you some advice."

"help me?"

"Um!"

"Hmph, what do you, a woman, know?"

"That's right. Even if you really are a princess, you have no right to interfere with us."

“That’s right. Even the Emperor himself wouldn’t dare make a decision. What do you, a sheltered young lady, know about warfare?”

As Ye Qingcheng spoke, the deputy generals beside Wen Shifeng angrily and disdainfully said a few words to her.

"How dare you! Who gave you the audacity to speak to our princess like that?"

Upon hearing this, Qingyi and Ningxin immediately became angry, their faces showing a hint of rage.

"What princess? She's just a woman who only knows how to embroider. Do you think she'd dare come to a military camp like ours?"

“If it weren’t for the fact that she said she could save the soldiers from danger, do you think you could have gotten in? Even when the Emperor came, we had to ask him three questions, let alone you.”

"That's right. Soldiers who want to save us, hurry up, or don't blame us for torturing you as spies."

"Let's see who dares."

As Qingyi and Ningxin spoke, they both instantly drew their weapons.

"Qingyi, Ningxin..."

Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng quickly stopped them.

"Your Highness, how dare they be so disrespectful to you."

Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "It's alright."

After saying that.

He looked at Wen Shifeng.

"General Wen, I have a good plan that can make the enemy army stay ten miles away. I wonder if General Wen would be willing to listen to it."

"General, don't listen to her. What does she know, she's just a woman?"

"that is."

Wen Shifeng frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "What good plan do you have?"

"Instead of having your capable soldiers stationed on the city walls, you should send them ten miles away to shoot arrows at them to slow them down."

"Reach ten miles away? What kind of strategy is that? You should know that there are less than 20,000 combat-ready soldiers in the entire army right now. If we leave the city, the whole army will be wiped out. Our border will be left undefended. Won't it collapse without a fight?"

"That's right, I told you, you don't know anything. Don't use your status to boss people around. You should know that even if you are a princess, if you dare to delay military matters, we will deal with you according to military law."

"That's right, are you here to treat our soldiers, or are you an enemy spy?"

As soon as Wen Shifeng finished speaking, his several lieutenants began to express their dissatisfaction with Ye Qingcheng again.

Ye Qingcheng glanced at them but didn't say anything.

He looked at Wen Shifeng again.

"General Wen, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Alright, then tell me."

"What I mean is, those soldiers, hold off the enemy's advance, while we make other plans."

"What are your plans?"

"Do you know why Japan and the islands have joined forces to invade again?"

"Is there even a question? Our Great Xia territory is vast, and they are bound to annex it!"

"No, they must know that we have become delirious and lost our fighting strength, which is why they dare to launch another attack."

"Then what?"

"Do we have enough food supplies in our army?"

"What do you want to do?" Wen Shifeng asked Ye Qingcheng with a gloomy expression, his eyes narrowed.

"I want to use food supplies to create hundreds of thousands of soldiers."

"What? Using grain rations as soldiers? Do you think you're a god? Can you perform magic tricks?"

"I am not a god, but I can make the enemy army dare not advance an inch."

"Hmph, some inanimate objects, how can they stop the enemy army? They can be trampled flat by horses."

"That's right, General, let's stop listening to her nonsense. She's just a woman, what could she possibly know about fighting?"

After hearing this, Ye Qingcheng glanced coldly at the two deputy generals who had despised and opposed her from the very beginning.

The two lieutenants were taken aback when they saw this, but they were not afraid; instead, they showed a mocking expression on their faces.

Wen Shifeng, however, frowned slightly and began to ponder.

At this moment.

Another soldier came to report.

"General, the enemy has already crossed ten miles. What should we do?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng said anxiously, "General Wen, please believe me. As long as you cooperate with me, I can make the enemy retreat ten miles away."

"Hmph, General, don't believe her. It's all her fault for making things difficult, otherwise we would have..."

Bang! Ah!

Before the lieutenant could finish speaking, Ye Qingcheng knocked him to the ground with her internal force.

Upon seeing this, Wen Shifeng and the others were stunned for a moment, then they all reacted and looked at Ye Qingcheng.

Ye Qingcheng looked at the deputy general she had knocked to the ground and coldly asked, "What are your intentions, you mere deputy general, constantly interfering with the general's decisions?"

When the lieutenant saw that Ye Qingcheng also knew martial arts, he immediately dared not speak again.

Wen Shifeng narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Qingcheng.

"I didn't expect you to know martial arts?"
