Become a founding empress in ancient times with the system

Sheng Changan looked at the fearless expressions of the few people, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Don't worry, for now, as long as we defend the city, there won't be any big problems."

"And once the tunnel is built, even if we are defeated, we can hide in the tunnel first and find an opportunity to recapture Guangping. And I don't believe that such an opportunity will ever come. We are just Xianbei."

Everyone below was surprised. They hadn't expected this gentleman to be so confident. It seemed he had a backup plan. Furthermore, this gentleman wasn't one to boast. Thinking of this, Feng Zhihong and the others felt relieved.

Sheng Chang'an watched these people leave with a stiff expression, but tears were streaming down her face. Each of them had the words "this life is over" written on their faces. What could she do?

The people who work for her are so lacking in confidence, wouldn't the people be even more panicked when they see this? She can only give them a reassurance first.

But! This is Tucheng An! Sheng Changan began to tremble belatedly. If the city was not defended, her head would be hung at the gate of Guangping County.

She touched the back of her neck uncontrollably and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was still connected. She hadn't lived long enough!

If things really don't work, as long as they can hold on for a month, the Xianbei will definitely retreat on their own. Now the weather is starting to get cold, and it will take at most two months. She doesn't believe that these people can still waste time with her when the temperature is more than ten degrees below zero.

By then, Shen Huaizhi, Li Dashan, and the others would surely be back. Even if we couldn't solve the problem, repelling them shouldn't be a problem. Learn from this lesson. Next time, we can't send them all out. At least keep Mr. Shen with us.

Sheng Changan rubbed her forehead. She really wasn't very good at fighting, but...

She still has no problem defending the city. Sheng Changan's eyes moved slightly. People like Feng Zhihong are still very good at learning by analogy when it comes to making things. As long as she says a little, they can almost make it.

She knew a few weapons that could defend the city. She had not expected that the Xianbei would attack Guangping so quickly, so now, in addition to weapons, she was also making agricultural tools to improve the people's farm tools and some basic facilities.

Sheng Changan stood up and tapped her slightly trembling legs. After making sure that no one could see it, she walked out and happened to run into Zheng Qing who was looking for her.

"Sir," Zheng Qing's eyes lit up slightly, "your room has been repaired, but you need to move your things over there."

"Okay, I'll go to the Research and Development Department. You can take charge of the affairs in the mansion. Also, tell those people to speed up the process of making the quilts." Sheng Changan took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over.

"These are cotton-padded jackets and trousers. Tell the soldiers over there to give them at least one each."

Zheng Qing looked at the clothes on the paper. Although they didn't look good, they might be more practical in winter. "Don't worry, sir."

Sheng Changan nodded slightly, turned around and walked out. She had originally wanted to call this place the Research and Development Department, but after thinking about it, she decided to call it the Research and Engineering Department, which would be easier for ancient people to understand.

Calling the Ministry of Works directly would be too blatant. She didn't want her evil intentions to be known to the world. She was not yet fully grown, so now was not a good time.

Although what she is doing now has already stepped on the imperial court's head, she can only keep it secret for as long as possible. At least she needs to develop it further.

But what Sheng Chang'an did not expect was that it was because of the Xianbei invasion that Guangping became famous and came into the court's attention.
