Why didn't they think of this method? Mother is really amazing.
Seeing their excited expressions, Mo Yan didn't say anything. "Amazing my foot! There's not much of these left."
As long as it boosts morale, that's fine. As for how to do it, they can create a solution.
Prince An retreated his troops thirty li and then remained inactive.
Seeing this, the two sons were incredibly excited.
They can take turns going back to rest now.
"Mother, you should go and rest first. We'll come again tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? Why tomorrow? We're going to continue tonight."
Why give them a chance to breathe? What is war? It's about not giving the other side any chance. If you're too reasonable, you'll end up being outmaneuvered.
The original plot was that they were too bound by rules, which ultimately led to them being outmaneuvered.
The idea of fighting during the day is complete nonsense. They didn't abide by that rule when they launched their sneak attack. Only those two idiots believed it.
"Mother, but..."
"This is war, not a game. There are no rules. It's all about surprise."
Mo Yan looked directly at the two of them and said, "You two go and eat something, we'll talk about it tonight."
Mo Yan took out the telescope she had made and watched as the person on the other side tried to come up with a solution.
They need to hold the city for five days. Then, King Wu's reinforcements will arrive. It's not that King Wu doesn't want to come; he's been held back by the emperor, who insists on trusting the border city.
Many ministers were dissatisfied with this prince, finding him too lenient and believing whatever corrupt officials told him without any investigation.
By the time King Wu finally reached the border city, it had already fallen, and the enemy had captured many more cities.
Unfortunately, the emperor went on an incognito visit and began to swear brotherhood with Kang Tinglan, eventually becoming sworn brothers with the enemy's Prince An and Prince Ning. While King Wu was guarding the border, he was making friends with his enemies, so it was no wonder that he was ultimately overthrown. The people of Yun suffered greatly, becoming inferior to others.
"Mother, I understand. I have benefited greatly from your words."
The two sons really felt they benefited a lot.
"Go back and eat. I'll stay here and take care of your soldiers while we eat. Even though we're old, we can still help out."
"Yes, Mother."
"Go back. Don't let Kang Tinglan go. She actually dared to say something like 'give up defending the city.' She should be expelled from the family. But I don't have time to deal with her right now."
A person who has no country in their heart is not worthy of being a citizen of Yun. How can an official be one who abandons the people for personal gain?
To believe a robber's words is truly astonishing.
Upon hearing Mo Yan's words, her two sons nodded repeatedly, agreeing that their daughter had gone too far.
In Mo Yan's opinion, this person is either a time traveler or an idiot, but has always been like this since childhood. Overly saintly, either a reincarnated soul or a born Mary Sue.
Neither of them can be forgiven.
"Mother, I will listen to you in everything."
Hearing this, Mo Yan was satisfied. The soldiers on the city wall began to take turns eating. Finally, Mo Yan even took out some pork jerky and gave some to each of them. If she hadn't been short on time, she could have made other things.
Kang Weiguo and Kang Weimin returned to the government office and began to eat. They ate the same thing: fried rice. In Mo Yan's words, it was a special time, so everyone ate the same thing: fried rice with rice soup. Everyone could eat it. After eating, they were told to get back to work.
Yes, while everyone else was still working, a group of old men and women in the government office started cooking.
They did leave at first, but then they came back. They couldn't let their children suffer here. After making arrangements for the children, they returned to fight for the border town. If the town fell, their world would collapse. If they became slaves, they would be branded and not treated as human beings. They had to fight to the death to protect this place.
If they can't play, then they can work hard from behind; there's always something they can do.
Kang Tinglan was washing dishes, but her hands were already swollen from being soaked in the cold water. When had she ever suffered like this?
There were people nearby yelling at her, telling her to hurry up.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Why are you so slow? Don't you know that a lot of people are waiting to eat? Everyone is waiting to eat so they can defend the city, and you're just dawdling."
The old lady really couldn't stand Kang Tinglan's slow pace, as if she hadn't done any work at all.
Kang Tinglan burst into tears. Why did she have to work?
Suddenly, her father's figure appeared before her eyes. "Father, Father!"
Kang Weiguo heard the sound and looked over. Kang Tinglan was squatting there, staring at him expectantly.
Everyone who saw Kang Weiguo quickly called out, "Lord Kang!"
After learning who Kang Tinglan was, they looked down on her even more. Mo Yan wasn't the original owner of this body, and worried about her reputation, so when she kicked her out, she said that Kang Tinglan actually wanted her father to abandon the people and leave.
When the people found out, they naturally hated Kang Tinglan with a passion. They knew that once the local officials and generals were gone, they became sheep in someone else's sheepfold, to be killed however they wanted. How could she be so heartless?
"What is it?"
Kang Weiguo was also disappointed in his daughter. He had always thought she was well-educated and virtuous, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting—his pride. Who knew she would do something so disappointing?
“Father, I know that no matter how I explain, you won’t listen. But even if I’m wrong, it’s because I don’t want to lose you.”
Kang Tinglan's tears streamed down her face; she was heartbroken. "I just didn't want to lose my father. I'm just an ordinary daughter. Was I wrong?"
"You're wrong! I am your father, and I am also the local official. Behind me are my people and my country. You must understand that you are not the only one with a father; everyone has one. They also want their fathers to live, but they know even more deeply that without a country, we are slaves to others. We will be bullied and have no freedom whatsoever. We are born as people of Yun, and we will die as souls of Yun!"
If I leave, I will be a heartless, ungrateful, and shameless traitor! What is the point of such a person living? To live is an insult, an insult to the Yun Kingdom.
Everyone wants to live, but we should have our own moral bottom line, and the bottom line for officials: we cannot back down!
He wanted to live, but if he retreated, he would become a slave, and the people of Yun Kingdom would not betray them.
"I'd rather die with the border town than live in secret!"
You have disappointed me greatly. From now on, you are no longer my daughter!
Kang Weiguo then uttered his final words: she was no longer his daughter.
The person who said such a thing does not deserve to be his daughter.
Kang Tinglan swayed, on the verge of fainting, when the older woman next to her pinched her hard, "Get back to work!"
They thought the magistrate was absolutely right; that's exactly how it should be. This Kang Tinglan was enjoying the life of a young lady, but when trouble arose, she wanted to run away. She was no good at all. This is a case of good bamboo producing bad bamboo shoots.
