Time Travel: The Foolish Lady is Forced to Become a Female General

Xia Qin looked around and said softly, "Wu Biejia, just speak frankly. We will have a lot of time together in the future, so there is no need to be so reserved."

Wu Baipeng was a little embarrassed, "My Lord, our rations are barely enough for two days. I'm afraid we can't set out to wipe out the Japanese pirates for the time being."

When Xia Qin and Mu Jinyu heard this, they also felt powerless. After all, the emperor's food and military pay had not arrived yet, and whether they would arrive was still a question.

However, Mo Ye smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. I don't have any extra. I can still provide food for three thousand people for half a month."

Wu Baipeng was overjoyed after hearing this, and immediately thought of Mo Ye as the wealthy businessman recruited by Xia Qin and Mu Jinyu.

"Thank you so much, Brother Mo!"

Xia Qin touched Mo Ye's arm and couldn't believe it: "You have so much money?"

Mo Ye joked quietly: "This is my last wife's gift. I won't have any betrothal gifts when I marry you in the future!"

Xia Qin was embarrassed: "Who wants to marry you!"

Mu Jinyu had already gotten a general idea of ​​the environment while everyone was talking, and he said in a serious tone: "Wu Biejia, brothers, there is no need to hide here, let's go back to the county."

"Subordinate to obey!"

Wu Baipeng gave a few instructions to Wang Rulong, and then the three thousand soldiers followed the crowd back to Zishi County and stationed in some abandoned houses.

Looking at the people who were resting, Xia Qin promised the soldiers: "Within three days, we will recapture Hailing County!"

When the soldiers heard Xia Qin's words, their faces were filled with doubt.

Wu Baipeng looked embarrassed and said, "My Lord, I am not trying to discourage you. Hailing County is not small. Let alone recovering it, there are Japanese pirates everywhere. It will be difficult for our 3,000 soldiers to walk through Hailing County in three days."

To be fair, Wu Baipeng was not an incompetent person. On the contrary, he was a Confucian general with considerable command talent. The fact that he was able to lead 3,000 men to defend two counties shows his ability.

But Xia Qin thinks like a modern person, and his understanding and concept of war are completely different from those of the ancients.

The reason why she was confident in retaking Hailing County naturally came from her Night Owl Squad and Mo Ye.

"Mr. Wu, you don't have to go to Hailing County. Starting tomorrow, you will lead the soldiers to Zhishui County. You just need to maintain public order in the county for the next three days."

"Zhishui County? Public security?" Wu Baipeng's calm and wise eyes were also a little confused. "Your Majesty means that the three thousand soldiers should not attack Hailing County?"

"That's right. After we have dealt with the Japanese pirates in Hailing County in three days, you can rush over there in time."

"This……"

"This is an order!" When questioned, Xia Qin's habit from her previous life came out. She didn't like this kind of questioning of herself.

Wu Baipeng was stunned for a moment, then responded: "I obey your command!"

The group returned to the manor. On the way, Mo Ye asked Xiang Xiaqin: "Xia Xia, what does Hailing County need me to do?"

"Help me take it down!" Xia Qin said suddenly.

"Ah?" Mo Ye looked at Xia Qin with wide eyes, but after thinking for a few seconds, he replied, "No problem, give me two days!"

This time it was Xia Qin's turn to widen her eyes: "Mo Ye, you... I was joking, just tell me where the pirates' base is in Hailing County."

"That's it?" Mo Ye felt that his task was too simple.

"Of course, you have to stay with me," Xia Qin said in a low voice, and then asked, "Can you really take down Hailing County in two days?"

"Isn't it just killing all the Japanese pirates in Hailing County? It's not a direct battle with thousands of Japanese pirates, so it's not that difficult."

Xia Qin believed what Mo Ye said, and also believed in the strength of him and his gang of brothers, but what she needed more was an army with terrifyingly strong combat effectiveness that could face any situation.

In the secret room of the manor, Mu Lie, Xia Qin, Mu Jinyu, Huo Jinying and all the members of the Night Owl Team were studying together how to capture Hailing County.

Naturally, Mo Ye was indispensable here. He stood in front of the sand table and pointed out to everyone the concentrated stronghold of the Japanese pirates in Hailing County.

"A total of 104 counties in the southeastern thirteen counties have been occupied by Japanese pirates. Their main force is harassing Dongwu County and Guangling County to the west. There are not many people in these counties, and most of them are Daxia pirates."

"There are about 300 Japanese pirates in Hailing County. They gather in three places: the county government office, Dongxing Wharf, and the cotton and linen factory."

Watching Mo Ye marking the concentration areas of the Japanese pirates on the sand table, everyone present was very impressed by the intelligence he had.

After Mo Ye finished sharing the information, Xia Qin stood up and expressed his thoughts.

"We will conduct a decapitation operation this time," Xia Qin said, looking at the three places marked by Mo Ye. "We will be divided into three small teams, each consisting of ten Night Owl members and fifty elite soldiers."

"During these three days, Wu Baipeng will lead 3,000 soldiers to be active in Zhishui County to lower the enemy's defenses. We will use these three days to strengthen training. Three days later, at night, we will sneak into Hailing County and completely annihilate the Japanese pirates in these three locations. Then, Wu Baipeng will lead the anti-Japanese army to prevent the Japanese pirates from counterattacking."

Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu nodded in approval.

There was nothing wrong and no omissions, and the Night Owl members present also understood Xia Qin's plan.

However, Mo Ye raised a question: "There is a problem. If the main force of the Japanese pirates comes to attack in three days, it will be difficult for us to resist. Even if we can barely defend Hailing County, I am afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

Mu Jinyu looked at the secret room and saw that all the people were reliable, so he said, "Don't worry, I have asked people to buy the materials for the bamboo thunder and fire barrel as soon as possible nearby, but it will take some time."

Hearing Mu Jinyu talking about the black gunpowder, Mu Lie cautiously reminded: "Yu'er, Yan'er, His Majesty is a suspicious person. Unless it is absolutely necessary, try not to make too much noise, otherwise I am afraid that you will get into trouble."

Xia Qin naturally understood this truth.

Not only that, saltpeter and sulfur were limited in quantity in this era, and she could only use them in large-scale battles. It would be too wasteful to use them in battles involving only a few thousand people.

"No problem!" Xia Qin seemed to have already figured out how to deal with it. "Brother Huo, how many bamboo thunders are left now?"

"About a hundred."

"That's enough! Half a month. As long as we hold on for half a month, we will have the strength to defeat the Japanese pirates head-on!"

Everyone in the secret room looked at Xia Qin in unison.

What do you mean?

"Brother Huo, you should lead the Night Owl Squad and other soldiers to train well in the next three days!"

"Yes, Miss!"

"Brother, the three thousand anti-Japanese troops are now in your hands."

Mu Jinyu nodded: "After we take over Hailing County, we won't be short of food and grass, and we can recruit soldiers."

In Zishi County, Wu Baipeng and his subordinates were discussing Xia Qin and others.

Wang Rulong said bluntly: "Brother Wu, are Mu Jinyu and Mu Jinyan reliable?"

"General Mu has been fighting with General Mu in the Western Frontier and the Northern Frontier against Yuelan and Xiongnu for many years and has made many military achievements. He is naturally reliable. It is said that Lord Mu received the help of heavenly thunder in the Northern Frontier and defeated tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops and captured two cities in one night."

Wang Rulong scratched his head, not quite convinced: "But I think this Mu Fujun is a little unreliable? To take over Hailing County in three days? We don't even need our three thousand men. Can women be trusted to fight?"

Hearing him say this, a woman next to him was obviously unhappy: "Rulong, since you are in the army, you have to change your martial arts habits. Besides, why can't women fight in wars? Haven't women in Daxia always made military achievements?"

Wang Rulong was not annoyed by the woman's ridicule. He just continued to ask curiously, "And that Mo Ye, following them, looks a bit strange. Is he a wealthy businessman? Or someone else? He looks very familiar with these two people."

Tang Kekuan smiled and said, "Captain Wang, since he claims to be a man of the underworld, and judging by his outstanding appearance and extraordinary bearing, he must be no unknown person. You came from the underworld, so you should have heard of him."

"I have been away from the martial arts world for two or three years, but Mo Ye, Mo Ye," Wang Rulong scratched his head more frequently, and suddenly his eyes widened, "I remembered that my junior brother mentioned this man when he came last year, Master Mo of the Emotional Wind!"
