The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Shang Xi's words were neither flattery nor perfunctory, but what he really thought. As the emperor, he could sit firmly in the court. Just look at the Dalang Kingdom, which surrendered to the Southern Yan Kingdom and Fengqi Kingdom successively. Although they were surrounded by enemies on all sides, the emperor of Dalang did not even lead the army in person!

"No fighting today."

"Are they not going to fight? The enemy's war drums are beating non-stop. Isn't they declaring war on us? Also, tens of thousands of soldiers are ready to go. It doesn't look like they are not going to fight." Shang Xi told everything he saw and thought!

"Then we won't fight!" Wan Lianxing told them their plan!

Although Shang Xi understood, she was also worried: "I heard that the enemy was shouting and cursing five miles in front of the military camp. Is that okay? They won't break into our camp!"

Shang Xi was afraid that if a fight really broke out, she would not be able to escape and would be taken prisoner.

"Our tens of thousands of troops are no pushovers, and we have the explosive packs you developed. Don't be afraid, go back and catch up on your sleep!"

Shang Xi shook her head, "I'm not going to sleep anymore! Uncle, where's Cheng Feng? I've been looking for him for a while, where is he?"

"I sent him out to buy something!"

"Where did you go shopping?"

"Southern Yang Kingdom!" Speaking of this, Wan Lianxing sighed with emotion, "Feng'er has grown up and knows how to share my worries!"

After this was said, what else could Shang Xi say? Her nephew took the initiative to do things for his uncle, what could she, as a niece-in-law, say? She could only smile and say some insincere compliments, saying that family members should not have different opinions and it was all right. At the face of a powerful enemy, they should unite against the enemy. After this was said, Wan Lianxing even praised Shang Xi.

Shang Xi didn't know when she learned the art of flattery and now she could speak perfunctorily and politely.

Since Cheng Feng was going out to do some work for Wan Lianxing, Shang Xi had nothing to worry about. At least there was no danger in going out to do things. This military camp was not a good place to stay, so she planned to leave in a few days.

This was not a good day. In front of the big tent, there were shouts and curses from the enemy. Some said that Wan Lianxing was a coward and a turtle who didn't dare to go out to fight. They also asked who had killed their general Zhao Guangyi. He was cursed with such words all day long!

Wan Lianxing, who was scolded as a bastard, didn't even step out of the tent. Is this the delaying tactic that Sui Ming mentioned?

However, the enemy did not dare to act rashly that day, because a loud noise was heard from the rear of the military camp from time to time. The enemy was not sure what the sound was, but knew that the sound was not simple and might be very dangerous.

As a result, the next day, the Southern Yan Kingdom did not come to challenge the enemy. They also wanted to know what the Fengqi army, which had never been afraid of fighting, had been doing in the military camp in the past two days.

However, the explosives were so powerful that they were also the highest military secret of Fengqi. How could they, the Southern Yan Kingdom, send a few spies to find out?

On the third day, their reinforcements finally arrived. With 50,000 men, they already outnumbered Fengqi by a long way. After several battles, Fengqi's army of more than 50,000 men was reduced to 40,000 men. Excluding the wounded who could not go to the battlefield, there were only 30,000 men who could actually fight. Moreover, they had the help of the ferocious beasts of the Tumi tribe, so they would definitely be able to defeat Fengqi's army without leaving any trace this time.

With the lost city in sight, Nanbu Yang was no longer in a hurry and they let the reinforcements rest for three days.

Don’t underestimate these three days. A lot of things were done in Fengqi’s military camp during these three days. Even the explosives were improved twice by Shang Xi.

Shang Xi sighed that she had learned a lot in the past and had a good brain. With her memories of later life, she was able to research early explosives. So far, she had done her best.

Wan Lianxing also changed his previous words. Shang Xi still remembered clearly that Wan Lianxing said that she, a woman, didn't know how to fight and told her not to worry about the war. Now he called her to discuss the war with Shang Xi, "Uncle, I dare not speak nonsense about things I don't understand."

"Hey, uncle sees that you are an expert. First you improved my crossbow, and now you have made explosives. Uncle sees that you are quite capable. Please give my military camp some pointers. Don't be modest!"

Advice? Humility?

Wan Lianxing thought Shang Xi was being modest, but in fact Shang Xi really didn't understand.

The fact that she was able to improve the bows and crossbows shows that Shang Xi had a wide range of knowledge in later generations. As for gunpowder, it was not her credit. She could not have invented it even if she had eight heads. She simply used what she learned in later generations to buy the ingredients needed for explosives and successfully detonated them. That's why she is the center of attention today.

However, Shang Xi was not used to being the center of attention. Cheng Feng was not there, and she was surrounded by more than twenty tall and strong men with long swords in the big tent, asking for military advice. It was like talking to a cow, and she wanted to run away!

"Uncle, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first!"

"You just arrived, why are you leaving? You haven't said a word yet, look, so many people are waiting to ask you for advice!"

"I don't deserve it. I don't know much and I don't dare to embarrass myself here!"

"Perhaps the Crown Princess dislikes us because we are uncouth people! That's why she doesn't want to say much to us!" The speaker was a general.

"No, no, you are all soldiers who risked their lives for Fengqi. Without you, there would be no peace in Fengqi's borders. I have no intention of looking down on you or disrespecting you!"

"Then tell us about the deployment of troops!"

"I... have never read any military books and don't know how to deploy troops. From the perspective of military strategy, I only know that running away is the best strategy!" Shang Xi stood up and tried to escape, but Wan Lianxing shouted back at him.

Wan Lianxing waved at her, motioning her to sit down, "Shang Xi, why are you in such a hurry? If you don't understand the formation, you can tell us about weapons. You can't just say you don't understand. You helped my uncle refine the iron, you helped my uncle modify the crossbow, and you also developed the gunpowder. You are so talented, why don't you tell us about it!"

Shang Xi makes Wan Lianxing proud. She is from their old Wan family. She is small but capable, talented, and quick-witted! Not to mention that Cheng Feng can't live without Shang Xi, Feng Qi can't live without Shang Xi either!

At this time, the general who had spoken just now echoed: "That's right, Princess, please help me see how to improve my sword!" As soon as he finished speaking, the general took off the sword from his waist and handed it to Shang Xi.

Shang Xi's mouth twitched. The sword sticking to the ground probably hurt her armpits, but she didn't want to offend a battle-hardened general, let alone her uncle.

She had never touched such a big sword before. The weathered scabbard was a mark left by the years. This sword had killed countless people and made countless military achievements for its owner.

Shang Xi stood up and reverently reached out to take this ancient sword with such great military achievements.

Suddenly, Shang Xi was bent over by the sword in her hand, and the sword fell to the ground, hitting her armpit. Maybe her arm was sprained at this time.
