Chapter 230 Military Supplies Are a Big Problem

Last year, we saved the people of three cities, and the cost was indeed quite high.

Yun Hongxiao felt that being the head of a country was really too difficult.

He sometimes had the urge to quit.

But thinking that the prince still needed to be tempered, he gave up the idea.

"I have no way to deal with the problem of military supplies."

The Flame Kingdom is still too small and cannot withstand too big a storm.

"I came to you to discuss something. What if General Tan can't hold on?"

"You don't trust Old Tan?" "

It's not that I don't believe him. Victory and defeat are common in the military. I'm just talking about the possibility of a certain situation.

My father handed this country to me, and there has not been a large-scale war in all these years.

This is the first time that the Ice and Snow Country has sent out 200,000 troops to invade our country. I'm really unsure." Yun Hongxiao was extremely depressed.

The emperor treated himself as the object of his inner thoughts.

Feng Zuwen understood Yun Hongxiao's meaning as soon as he heard it.

He was afraid that the enemy would be fierce and he would not be able to resist it, and then the country would be destroyed in his hands.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. If Old Tan can't stop him, I will go myself."

"You go? You are a commander of the imperial guards who have never guarded the border. Can you lead troops to fight?"

Yun Hongxiao didn't quite believe that Feng Zuwen could lead troops to fight. The battlefield and the guarding of the capital are completely different things.

"My second son has studied with General Chen for a few years. I will take him with me when the time comes."

This is called father and son fighting in battle.

He didn't want to think that Feng Yuanhan had just got married.

Feng Zuwen chatted with the emperor in the study for a while, and he left because other ministers wanted to talk to the emperor about something.

Through today's chat, Feng Zuwen clearly felt that the emperor was completely unsure, and the emperor just wanted to talk to him about his inner thoughts.

Feng Zuwen was born and raised in Yanyan.

When Yanyan is in trouble, as the Marquis of the Marquisate, he should be at the forefront. His ancestor obtained the title by repelling the Ice and Snow Country.

Now that the Ice and Snow Country has invaded again on a large scale, he, as the Marquis, should follow the example of his ancestor, take up the banner and repel the Ice and Snow Country, saving the country from danger.

In the evening.

Feng Zuwen also talked about this at the dinner table.

"Second brother, you have learned military tactics for so long from your father-in-law. How do you feel about your learning?"

"Dad, my father-in-law said that I am more talented than him. I am a good seedling for leading troops to fight."

"Dad is afraid of undermining your self-confidence, so he deliberately praises you." Chen Huizhu sang the opposite tune with him.

After saying this, he quickly lowered his head and ate his rice.

"Hehe!" Feng Tianxing laughed when she heard it.

The two of them became husband and wife but they still did not change their previous mode of getting along. They were still a pair of happy enemies.

Feng Tianxing laughed, and the others laughed too.

"What do you know as a woman?" Feng Yuanhan said to her unhappily.

"Feng Yuanhan, do you want to be beaten?"

Chen Huizhu was furious when she thought of the suffering she had suffered last night. She clearly begged for mercy, but Feng Yuanhan still did not let her go.

As a result, she got up this morning with a sore back and waist, which was more tiring than practicing martial arts for half a day.

"Hehe, but you have never beaten me." Feng Yuanhan touched people's hearts.

"Does the second sister-in-law want to beat the second brother? I have a way." Feng Tianxing smiled and interrupted Chen Huizhu.

"Sister, don't. If your sister-in-law's martial arts skills are too strong, I'm afraid I can't control her." Feng Yuanhan looked at Feng Tianxing as if begging for mercy.

"Haha!" This made everyone laugh.

Even a gentle lady like Yuan Qiaolan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Ahem..." Feng Zuwen coughed twice deliberately.

He was talking about serious matters, but the two newlyweds derailed him. He didn't know where he was going.

"The Ice and Snow Country has dispatched 200,000 troops to invade this time, plus 280,000 garrison troops. This is the largest scale in recent decades.

The emperor is worried that General Qin can't hold on, so he asked me to tell him about his worries today.

There is another more serious problem, which is the lack of military supplies, because last year's anti-epidemic efforts almost emptied the national treasury."

"Dad, what do you think is the possibility of General Qin's victory?" Feng Yuanhao asked.

He also knew that the national treasury was empty.

Once the troops moved, food and fodder went first.

In fact, the best way is to fight a quick battle.

If the war lasts longer, the consumption will be greater.

"I don't know, but relatively speaking, he should have more experience, because the Ice and Snow Country often harasses our borders, and small battles often occur.

He has been guarding the Northeast for many years, and often fights with the Ice and Snow Country, so he knows the Ice and Snow Country best."

Feng Tianxing listened quietly.

She was constantly thinking in her heart.

She has been in the Flame Country for so many years, and has regarded this place as her home.

Her relatives are here, and she doesn't want this country to suffer.

She likes the free and peaceful days the most. If this peaceful life is broken, she will be very unhappy.

She doesn't know how long it will take for her to achieve the ability to tear through the void, or for Yun Ranqing to achieve this ability.

She may have to live here for a long time.

"Dad, let's wait and see." Feng Yuanhao said.

The next day.

Yun Ransheng led an army of 100,000 to the border to provide support.

When the common people knew that another war had started, they were all worried and afraid.

The common people whose families had joined the army were even more terrified.

War meant sacrifice.

Every soldier was a son of every family, either a father, a son, or a husband.

Feng Tianxing had nothing to do, so she ran to Princess Loulan's mansion to play with Lou Shiyan.

"Sister Lou, the piano you played last time was really beautiful, and the instrument you used was really special. I want to hear you play the piano again."

"Okay, it's rare to meet a soulmate." Lou Shiyan said with a smile.

Feng Tianxing personally burned incense for her.

If outsiders knew that a princess of a country played the piano for a little girl who was only seven or eight years old, many people would be shocked.

"Sister Tianxing, do you want to learn to play the piano with me?"

"Okay, if I have a good teacher like you, I will definitely become a master." Feng Tianxing has never tried such an experience.

In her previous life, she only knew how to practice alchemy, so she was not willing to play such a pleasant thing to kill time.

The maids were very tactful and did not disturb the two people's play.

The princess finally met a little girl she liked. They were very grateful for Feng Tianxing's arrival and really hoped that she could come to chat and play with the princess every day.

They were also very pleased to see that the princess was so energetic now.

Lou Shiyan sat in front of the piano gracefully and played the beautiful tunes of her hometown.

Her piano sound was gentle and melodious, sometimes like a small bridge and flowing water, and sometimes like the scenery outside the Great Wall.

Feng Tianxing was intoxicated by her.

After two songs, Lou Shiyan stopped.

"How about I teach you some simple fingering today?"

"Okay, okay."

One taught seriously, and the other learned seriously.

Unexpectedly, half an hour later, Feng Tianxing really learned a dozen fingerings.

After playing for a while, the two stopped to drink tea.

"Sister Lou, you know that the Ice and Snow Country has declared war on the Flame Country, right?"

"I know. Are you, a little kid, still worrying about national affairs?" Lou Shiyan said with a smile.

"I don't have to worry about it, but my father does, and the emperor worries even more."

"Do you want to help your father?"

"Yes, the Flame Country has no money now." Feng Tianxing told the truth in front of a foreign princess, and she didn't feel that she had leaked a secret.

Through these days of contact, she already knew that Lou Shiyan came to the Flame Country because she really wanted to live there.

And the fact that she was most likely her maid in her previous life made her have no grudges against her.

"Since our two countries are on good terms, I can write a letter back and ask my father to lend some to Flame."
