Ruyang Fang: "...Where did the initial smoke signal come from? Are you sure it was from us? We have never seen such a signal before."
The young Prince of Hengyang, Liu Mu, was listening quietly, and suddenly his eyelids twitched: "Let me take a look."
Suddenly, he thought of Lu Sanlang Lu Yun. Complex things, things that others can't understand... maybe they were created by Lu Yun.
As expected, the Ruyang troops called the confused messenger to Liu Mu. At this time, their soldiers were at the foot of the city, kerosene was burning on the city wall, countless soldiers rushed forward, countless ladders were placed on the wall and burned. Waves of soldiers fell, and then waves came up. Cavalry, infantry, and arrow arrays, the troops were mobilized quickly.
Half the sky was gray.
The sound of gunfire was blasting in his ears. Liu Mu stood in front of the army, his hands clasped behind his back, his figure straight and unhurried. When he signaled the messenger to demonstrate the complicated signal, his expression was slightly dazed. Like a revolving lantern, when those complicated signals were revealed, when those signals that he had played with in his childhood and youth, but discarded because they were too complicated to teach others, saw the light of day again, and when he saw them again——
The carefree days of my childhood at Jianye came back to me.
At that time, he rode into Jianye City, dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse, with an arrogant attitude.
At that time he didn't know that his brother wanted to kill him.
He is also the candidate for the next emperor for whom the late emperor has given a secret decree.
Now, now...
The messenger asked anxiously: "Does the general also not understand?"
Liu Mu said: "I understand."
The messenger was originally disappointed, but now he was stunned: "...Ah?!"
Seeing the King of Hengyang with his eyes downcast and his eyelashes blocking his figure, Liu Mu turned around quickly and strode to look for the general of Ruyang.
…
Join forces.
The three counties and cities joined forces to destroy the Northern Army.
…
In Nanyang City, Luo Lingyu hadn't seen Lu Yun for half a month. She had tried to go to the military camp several times, but the army traveled back and forth quickly, and General Wei handed the strategic plan to Lu Yun, so Lu Yun rarely appeared in the military camp. Every time she stood outside the military camp and saw the injured being carried back, Luo Lingyu's eyes dimmed.
Back in the social circles of the ladies, the girls often complained about: "When will the war end? My brother was drafted and taken away. I haven't seen him for a long time."
"Yes, my father has gone there. What's wrong with Riku Saburo? He doesn't let go of any man. We are samurai. How can samurai go to the battlefield in person?"
"Nanyang has lost communication with the outside world. I haven't been able to buy the rouge and powder I wanted for a long time..."
Yingying and Yanyan were still talking about their daughters' family affairs. Luo Lingyu sat in the middle, her expression becoming more and more gloomy. When they complained that they couldn't get through, Luo Lingyu's eyes moved, and she stood up with a smile: "You can't get through to the outside world, and you can't even see the men at home. It's really pitiful. If I can find a way to let you see your brothers and father, are you willing?"
The girls cheered up: "Really? My mother was crying last night, worried that my brother would not come back. Sister Luo, do you have any way to let us see him?"
Luo Lingyu smiled mysteriously.
The next day, Luo Lingyu led the girls to the gate of the military camp. When their faces turned pale and they wanted to escape in panic, Luo Lingyu grabbed one of the girls' arms tightly and said quickly: "The casualties in the army are heavy, and there are not enough military doctors. Sisters, you are all familiar with poetry books and can't do anything else. You can help the military doctors and bandage the wounded soldiers. You can always do such a thing, right?"
She stared at the girls and tempted them: "In this way, when your sons come back, won't you be able to see them first?"
The man whose arm she grabbed covered his nose with his sleeve and said in a disgusted tone: "I don't want it! Why don't you ask those common women to do it? How can you let us do this?"
Luo Lingyu: "A commoner girl wearing a battle robe and armor, becoming a militia to protect the city, isn't it harder than you? Sisters, you should do something for Nanyang, right?"
The girls were stunned by what she said: "...You said that all commoner girls have joined the army?"
Actually no.
This was just Luo Lingyu's plan, and she hadn't put it into action yet. It was only because the noble ladies were arrogant and there were many casualties in the army that she was the first to convince these noble ladies.
Luo Lingyu said decisively: "The situation in Nanyang is not good, and our army is extremely weak. If you sisters don't save yourself and the city falls, are we going to flee to Jianye? Jianye is not our family's territory."
Girls: "...Don't hold us back, let us think about it."
"Humph, you did this just to help Lu Saburo."
In this era, it is extremely enviable for a beautiful girl to be pursued by a man.
In the eyes of the famous ladies in Nanyang, Luo Lingyu's first fiancé was the fourth son of the Fan family, and now it is the third son of the Lu family... Such luck of Mrs. Luo is really enviable.
Luo Lingyu didn't care what they thought, she just persuaded them with a smile. She was eloquent and kept giving them great advice. The girls were reluctant, so she simply went to their homes one by one and talked to their elders. The girls from the aristocratic families had bitter faces and were afraid of Luo Lingyu, so they had to follow her to help in a depressed mood.
…
Not only did she ask the noble girls to help treat the wounds, Luo Lingyu also wrote a detailed article, explaining that while the young man was killing the enemy on the battlefield, the commoner girls behind him could be used and disguised as female soldiers. Nanyang had very few soldiers, so why not use the strength of the entire county to fight the enemy?
The Wei generals were delighted.
Lu Saburo is the savior.
I didn’t expect that Mrs. Luo was the same.
This long war gave the Wei generals hope.
…
Famous people all over the world criticized the Northern Army verbally and in writing.
After the war raged, support and criticism from all sides increased many times.
The Jianye court was completely unable to stop the war in the north. Whenever they wanted to change troops or recall troops, King Chen would be there to make decisions, making it impossible to implement the government orders. The Northern Kingdom envoys received the news from their own army's front line, their faces were grim, and they were still terrified after burning the letter:
Lu Saburo!
It’s Lu Saburo again!
Riku Saburo's strategies on the northern battlefield are a huge threat to the northern army!
