Chapter 71 Pre-War Preparation 3

During this period, Ajin was even busier and became the commander-in-chief. The Miao king actually trusted him and wanted to give him the right to command the battle, but Ajin refused and continued to go in and out as the Miao king's aide. Every day in the Miao king's big camp, the cave masters came to discuss matters. It would be better to say that they were talking to Ajin than to the Miao king, because the Miao king had to ask Ajin about almost everything. Over time, everyone spoke directly to Ajin, and slowly everyone in the village knew that this tall young man was the actual person in power.

Ah Jin had some experience in battles. After observing for a while, he adjusted the tasks of several cave masters at the appropriate time and assigned 500 more people to the master of Tianshan Cave, to specifically practice tasks such as digging trenches and pulling ropes to stop the enemy.

After training for many days, each team had grown to a considerable size, and their offense and defense coordination had become more and more proficient. Several cave masters who were afraid of fighting also felt that their teams could fight against the imperial court. Cave master Siming had also gained some courage these days and said, "Although we don't have as many soldiers as the Han people, we are not bad in fighting. We must teach them a lesson in this battle." Cave master Gaizhu had never been convinced by the Han people. He had had enough of their arrogance and was eager to have a fight. He also said at this time, "Let them know that we are not easy to bully. Damn it, they still want to trap us to death." The others also echoed him. They had been oppressed by the Han people for many years, and everyone was holding a grudge.

Ah Jin listened to their conversation quietly. The Miao King saw that everyone was very excited, but Ah Jin was too calm, so he asked him, "Sir, what do you think?"

A Jin said, "We have only one purpose for training: to run." Everyone was silent, and their faces were gloomy. A Jin continued, "Why do we have to break out now? First, the officers and soldiers have not started to build fortifications, and the troops have not yet assembled; second, the court did not expect us to break out so quickly, and they took advantage of their unpreparedness. If we really wait for them to deploy their defenses, we will not be their opponents. Do you remember why we trained in the first place?" For what? Of course, it was to break the Han people's plan to divide and destroy them, so they moved to Yunnan and Guizhou. A Jin glanced at everyone present and said, "If you want to leave, leave, no one will be left behind."

Everyone, including the Miao King, looked at A Jin in surprise. A Jin said, "You will not come back for several years. Who would risk their lives to follow you without taking your family with them?"

The next day, Ajin ordered his men to continue training soldiers and at the same time launched a fitness campaign for all members. The old, weak and sick people in the village were gathered together. Ajin divided the elderly and frail into two groups, and the pregnant women into two groups. At the same time, a medical team was organized. Young girls and wives became the backbone of the team, and everything went on in an orderly manner.

Ajin, the actual commander-in-chief, was even busier, but he still took out at least a quarter of an hour every day to accompany Mei'er to practice archery. Mei'er was really talented in archery and had been practicing for more than ten days. She had gotten the hang of it in the first few days, and although she didn't make much progress afterwards, she was getting more and more comfortable with it. She could draw the bow and release the arrow without any pause. Zaihou was even more serious than Mei'er. He carefully wrote down every key point Ajin said and got up before dawn every day to practice.

Peng Yu was busy in the medical team. She was very reluctant to learn how to take care of a pregnant woman with several young wives. Then she saw Ajin and two Miao people wandering around her. Peng Yu frowned. This Ajin was just wandering around everywhere for nothing, like a supervisor. Humph, it was not his turn to take care of her, the little princess Peng Yu. Thinking of this, she snorted heavily. Several people nearby heard it, and some of them cast surprised or inquiring eyes at her. Only Ajin didn't even look at her. He walked straight past her with his men, as if she was a transparent person. Peng Yu's face turned green. This Ajin was just Bo Yi's subordinate, and he dared to ignore her and her father like this. What was so good about this Ajin that he actually wanted to marry her to this man.

Peng Yu returned home angrily and saw Ajin in her house again. She murmured in her heart that Ajin was really haunting her. Humph, what's the point of running to curry favor with her father every day? She would never marry him. Finally, the Miao King sent Ajin away. Peng Yu could no longer bear it and went to find the Miao King. Unexpectedly, the Miao King told her the news that she was assigned to the medical team. Wasn't she supposed to take care of pregnant women? Why did she become the wounded? She didn't want to even look at those stinky men on weekdays. Needless to say, it was Ajin's idea again. She was the little princess of the Miao village. Wouldn't he treat her like a maid? Peng Yu hated it so much but she couldn't go against her father's decision.
