The host of the quick travel is lacking in virtue for eight generations

Others may not know, but Xiao Yun knows that A Yuan had actually been preparing for war for a long time.

The preparation of food and fodder began as early as when he took office. Yaoyao also allocated a lot of silver here, ostensibly for post-disaster reconstruction, but in fact it was used to recruit soldiers and store food.

Of course, it would be enough as long as the food and fodder are enough for the expedition. After all, they are in the north, and the major grain producer is still the Chen State in the southwest. It is said that grain can be produced there for three seasons.

This is also one of the reasons why we attacked him first. As long as we defeat him, we won’t have to worry about food and grass problems when we attack other countries later.

Although Xiao Yun and Yaoyao can both come up with high-yield grain varieties, both promotion and planting take time. If they follow this process, it will take at least five years to achieve.

He didn't want to wait that long, and there was a quicker way, so why bother?

Another reason is that the princess of their Qi State was actually imprisoned on a farm. Before, they thought she was being treated as a queen consort and supported, but unexpectedly, she was imprisoned. Isn't this a slap in the face of Qi State? They must deal with it!

A Yuan didn't have to go to the battlefield. As a governor of a state, he had to guard his own piece of land. In addition, his place was a frontier fortress, so he had to keep the supply of information and food flowing.

Gu Lanzhang cannot move either, but the three brothers of the Gu family can go and show themselves. After all, they are their adopted brothers, and Yaoyao is providing them with a stage.

Xiao Yun originally thought that Gu Huairen would stay. After all, he had just been married for a few months. The most important thing was that Xiao Tao was pregnant now. She had been pregnant for only two months, which was the time when she had to pay the most attention.

Unexpectedly, he was going to go too, and Xiao Tao did not object. She even came to talk to Xiao Yun, saying that she must not delay her husband's future. Moreover, this time she was going to save her biological mother. Even though Chen State was originally her homeland, she did not have a good impression of it, not to mention that her biological mother was imprisoned.

If she hadn't been pregnant, she would have wanted to go with them. There are female soldiers in the army now. Although the number is not large, it is still pretty good.

In ancient times, the rules for women were relatively open and not particularly strict. In addition, when she was with the Mingyue sisters, she also learned the Bagua stick technique and had a good talent for it.

Since she can't go now, she certainly can't stop her husband from making great achievements, so she supports him.

Although Xiao Yun felt a little surprised, it was also within her expectations. She gave each of the three brothers a safety card. This was a real safety card that could save their lives at the critical moment.

Of course, minor injuries are inevitable. It will only protect them when their lives are threatened. Otherwise, it will show its power in front of people from time to time, and then people will catch it and study it.

They didn't leave immediately. They had to go to the military camp for training for a period of time. The new soldiers recruited by Yuan were being trained by the more than 600 people he had recruited.

Now let's not talk about how good his skills are, at least he can enforce discipline, so there will be no problem with formations and group battles. What's more, Gu Huaiyi has studied military tactics with A Yuan for more than a year and has already mastered some techniques.

They also had time to work with those soldiers so that they could cooperate better when the time came.

Don't think that the war between two countries will start immediately. First, Qi State should send a letter to Chen State, condemning the other party's mistakes and hoping that the other party will correct them and pay compensation. The words should be sharp and the content should be well-reasoned. Then it depends on whether the other party will quibble or give in.

If they quibble, it means they refuse to admit their mistakes, and the fight will be justified. If they surrender, they will have to cede land and pay compensation. Chen State claims to be a strong country, so it is highly likely that it will not do that.

It will take at least a month to go back and forth.

The final result, of course, was a war. The State of Chen also knew that the State of Qi was just looking for an excuse and had never considered the possibility of a peaceful solution, so it also prepared to actively fight back.

During this period, the State of Qi was also not idle. When the army gathered at the border, it was exactly two months later, which was when the two sides fell out.

At this time, Xiao Tao's stomach was already upset, and then she received the exact news that the war had started.

Of course, the army did not come from the imperial capital, but was transferred from several states and counties near the border. These troops had been arranged by Yaoyao in advance and were specially trained.

Among all the states, Yuzhou has the largest number of troops mobilized, because due to the previous severe drought and snow disaster, there are many refugees in the state, which also means that everyone can actively join the army for the sake of stuttering.

Even if there is no forced conscription like the male protagonist did before, as long as the salary is high enough, there will be many volunteers, so the number of people is the largest.

The Gu brothers actually left Yuzhou Prefecture more than a month ago. They trained in the military camp for more than a month, and left together when the troops from more distant prefectures gathered here.

After all, this is a border area, so there is no need to arrive too far in advance.

At that time, Xiao Yun brought sisters Xiao Tao and Ming Yue to see the three brothers off. Gu Lanzhang didn't come as he had to take up his post. He had said everything that needed to be said last night when he went to the military camp with A Yuan. A Yuan even held a swearing-in ceremony.

Today was the day they would actually set out with the troops. The three brothers bid farewell to Xiao Yun together, and then asked Mingyue and her sister to take care of the family.

Gu Huairen kept telling Xiao Tao to take good care of herself, and then he began to ask Xiao Yun, his mother, to watch over his wife and tell her not to do this or that, over and over again.

Xiao Yun rolled her eyes in annoyance. If she hadn't seen a lot of his men behind him, she would have wanted to kick him.

She waved her hand impatiently and said, "Just leave now. I don't need you to tell me about this. Just remember to come back safely."

Gu Huairen choked back the words he hadn't finished saying. He burped and shook his head helplessly. He looked at Xiao Tao and opened his mouth to say something, but was glared at by me and stopped.

He looked at them again, turned around, mounted his horse, and headed towards the army behind him.

Xiao Yun and his companions stood on the roadside for a long time, until most people had left, then they got on the carriage and returned to the city.

At the border with the State of Chen, it took another half a month for the large army to assemble.

After that, Xiao Yun would receive their news from time to time. These were real-time messages from the army to A Yuan, sent via carrier pigeons.

Xiao Yun had raised those pigeons in the space for a period of time. They flew higher and were smarter and more flexible. Ordinary people could not intercept them at all, and could not shoot them with arrows.

These messages were not for A Yuan, but were passed through A Yuan to Emperor Yaoyao who was far away in the imperial capital. Of course, if it was urgent, there was no need to send it over, Xiao Yun could tell him directly.

For letters that were not urgent, they would just pretend to send someone back.

The news came almost every day. First of all, the three brothers of the Gu family did not stay in the same team, but separated.

Gu Huairen and Gu Huaili joined the vanguard army, while Gu Huaiyi became the commander-in-chief's staff.

That kid has been smart and studious since he was young, and he is also very smart. He is indeed very suitable to be a military staff member.

Now he has made great achievements in deploying troops. Before, A Yuan not only taught him personally, but also found many military books for him. He has learned them very well and can apply them to other situations.

In this way, he was highly valued by the commander-in-chief and made great contributions in the first surprise attack.

Other military advisors suggested launching a surprise attack on the night of the assembly, catching the enemy off guard when they thought they would rest and get to know each other first.

Unexpectedly, the other party predicted their actions and caught them in a trap!

Fortunately, Gu Huaiyi later met with the commander-in-chief alone and told him about this possibility. He also prepared another team of troops to encircle the enemy from behind. As a result, he avoided heavy casualties in the first round and actually caught the enemy off guard.

As the war progressed, good news came in from Qi.

The three brothers of the Gu family each showed their abilities on the battlefield. Gu Huairen and Gu Huaili fought bravely in the vanguard and broke through the enemy's defense lines many times.

Gu Huaiyi made plans in the tent and repeatedly saw through the tricks of the Chen generals.

Of course, most of the credit goes to the commander, because the commander is none other than the original male protagonist Shen Qingchen.

Although the system was stripped away and Xiao Yun also sealed his memory about the system and time travel, she left him the knowledge he had learned in the system space before. He just thought that it was taught by a famous teacher his father found for him.

In the early stage, the system only taught Shen Qingchen how to lead troops in battle, and directly instilled into him the character weaknesses of generals from various countries. According to the original plot, he has now conquered two countries.

As for how to be a king and how to govern a country, that was learned after the unification of the four kingdoms. Of course, the system was not taught seriously. After all, the other party was aiming for the origin of the world. If the country was governed too well, the fortune of the world would also prosper. How could it steal the origin?

So the final result is that the country is destroyed, the families are ruined, the people are living in misery, and then the world collapses.

Now with Xiao Yun and Yaoyao, everything has changed. The male protagonist has also learned how to use his skills correctly, and Yaoyao is no longer going to be abandoned. It is a win-win situation for both sides.

Just because of the male protagonist's plug-in, plus the powerful newly trained soldiers, the Qi army penetrated into the heart of the Chen State with great momentum and reached the last checkpoint. After passing this checkpoint, they can directly attack the capital of the Chen State!

However, the State of Chen did not surrender and began to contact other neighboring countries.

They widely publicized Qi's wolfish ambitions and took Chen as a lesson. Once Chen was destroyed, they would not be able to escape. It would be better for them to unite together to fight against Qi.

The neighboring State of Rui was actually persuaded and actually sent 500,000 troops to aid Chen. It also prepared for a counterattack with the Chen army at the last barrier of Chen.

Facing the reinforcements from the Swiss country, Shen Qingchen did not care too much. The other party said there were 500,000, which was really not that much.

In this kind of war, the number of troops is exaggerated. If there are 30,000 troops out of a hundred thousand, it would be considered good. Similarly, if there are 500,000 troops, 100,000 is the maximum.

He sent out scouts to investigate the situation, and sure enough, he received a reply in the evening. The real number was only 100,000, and they did not bring any baggage with them, which meant that they had to rely on the State of Chen for all their food and drink.

He summoned all the generals to discuss countermeasures and told them about the situation.

The Gu brothers also participated in the plan. Gu Huaiyi analyzed: "Although the Rui Kingdom has sent 100,000 reinforcements, they must be exhausted after a long journey. Moreover, they are temporarily combined with the Chen army, so their coordination must be unfamiliar. We can pretend to retreat first, lure them deep into the enemy's territory, and then cut off their retreat, so that we can defeat them one by one."

Shen Qingchen thought about the general Liu Cheng sent by the Rui State and the general He Zaigui sent by the Chen State, both of whom had somewhat conceited personalities, so he readily adopted this plan.

So in the first confrontation, the Qi army began to retreat in an orderly manner, and the coalition forces of Rui and Chen fell into the trap and pursued them with all their might.

After the enemy entered the encirclement, the Qi army attacked from both wings and cut off the coalition forces' retreat. For a time, shouts of killing shook the sky and the morale of the Qi army was high.

The Gu brothers led the charge. Gu Huairen and Gu Huaili rushed into the enemy camp as if they were in an empty space; Gu Huaiyi commanded one of the raiding teams and attacked in an orderly manner.

After a fierce battle, the coalition forces were defeated.

The Qi army pursued the victory and broke through the last checkpoint of the Chen State in one fell swoop, and approached the capital of the Chen State.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the King of Chen had no choice but to surrender.

It took the State of Qi three months to conquer the State of Chen. Xiao Yun and others learned the news of the victory almost immediately and were extremely happy.

The State of Qi also became famous because of this battle, and other countries expressed their willingness to make friends with it, especially the State of Rui, which immediately submitted a letter and was willing to cede land and pay compensation.

Unfortunately, Yaoyao didn't buy it at all. Once he conquered Switzerland, everything in Switzerland would belong to him. How could he give up the whole piece of fat meat for such a small thing?

However, Yaoyao did not directly reject Rui's request for peace. He started planning to attack Rui and also had to deal with the follow-up of Chen.

So he planned to pretend to be friendly first, and after dealing with the State of Chen, he would attack the State of Rui.

However, Yaoyao soon changed his mind because he received a call from his biological mother, who told him about Gu Huaiyi's proposal.

Gu Huaiyi thought that instead of waiting for the other side to become alert or form another coalition, it would be better to take advantage of the chaos and take them down in one fell swoop.

For example, they could use the supplies and prisoners captured in Chen State before to disguise themselves as the remnants of the coalition forces of Rui State and Chen State, ask for help from Rui State, and take the opportunity to infiltrate Rui State to achieve internal and external cooperation.

The morale of Qi is high now, so it is a good opportunity to take down the two countries in one fell swoop, and maybe even scare the other countries into surrendering voluntarily.

This strategy was approved by everyone and was soon put into practice.

The remnants of the Chen army, disguised as some Qi soldiers, brought some Rui captives to the border of Rui.

He said that although Chen was defeated, it still had enough strength to restore its country, and asked Switzerland for support and permission to temporarily reside in the country.

The King of Rui hesitated but finally agreed.

He thought that the State of Chen had a backup plan, such as hidden treasures that were rich enough to rival a country.

He never thought that Qi still had the strength to fight Rui again.

After the "remnant of Chen Rui's army" entered an important city on the border of Rui State, they quickly launched an attack, opened the city gates and welcomed the main force of Qi army that had been ambushed long ago.

The Qi army poured in like a tide, and the Rui army was caught off guard and was defeated step by step.

Shen Qingchen and the Gu brothers once again showed their prowess in this battle, especially the brothers Gu Huairen and Gu Huaili. They led their soldiers to quickly penetrate various strategic points of the Swiss country, making it impossible for the Swiss army to take care of both ends.

In the end, Rui was unable to resist, its king was captured, and Qi successfully occupied Rui.

It took two and a half months, but it was still not as good as Chen State...
