Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

Chapter 226 Xiaodong succeeds to the throne and Yeheng dispatches troops

Chai Zhen has been managing and renovating the mountain for the past few years, and the Nine Mountains are still doing a good job. Guoguo arrived at the mountain. The corn in the fields was growing well, all large cobs. The harvest was being machine-harvested, fully automated. Plowing and harrowing the fields. After harvesting, wheat was planted, watered, and done. Guoguo had been really tired from running back and forth these past few days. After returning home, he washed up and went to sleep. Chai Zhen looked at the child and sighed. "What a fate!" he thought. "He was born to suffer. He was born to enjoy life."

The men in black had gone to the hilltops to harvest the crops, leaving only small plots for the people on the mountain to eat. The small plots couldn't harvest the fruit. Even the grass nests were full of radishes and beans; everyone was busy harvesting whatever they could find. Ye Heng had been absent these days, training with his troops. Chai Zhen took the children to school every day. The children from the academy lived on campus, so the three little ones were the only ones to do the work. Yanyan was about to start her elementary education, and Ye Heng had helped find a female tutor for her.

After Guoguo finished her busy schedule, she started school. In the afternoons, she was at home designing winter clothes and drawing blueprints. Chai Tao made the first set, and Guoguo thought it was good, so she took it to the shop and put it up for sale. It sold out in half a day. The capital is a burning treasury. It's not that no one wants it, but that there's no stock. Little Tuanzi goes back and forth between the two places every day. Chai Tao speeds up the production of clothes and makes a lot of money!

Everything goes on as planned.

……

Time flies, and Guoguo is eleven years old. Her birthday is August 15th, and Ye Heng personally cooks her a meal. "Not bad," they say. They're not home, but out on the road, playing and traveling. Ye Heng is already twenty-six. "Grow up quickly, Guoguo! Brother Ye is already twenty-six. He can't even find a wife." The emperor has repeatedly told Ye Heng to find a woman, but he refuses. Years ago, when Guibao ascended the throne, Ye Di took Lu Xi on a tour of the country, accompanied of course by secret guards. Xiaodong, at twenty-one, still hasn't found a concubine. Not a single woman. Clearly concerned about Guoguo's growth, Guoguo has also told Xiaodong to find a partner, but he's stubborn. To this day, he still has neither an empress nor a concubine. Whenever the ministers ask Xiaodong to, he says he'll only find one for the benefit of the people. Xiaodong isn't as easy to talk to as the late emperor. He's decisive and resolute. Construction on the South-to-North Water Diversion Project began two years ago. It was Xiaodong who got him arrested. The Emperor - The late Emperor took Lucy out to play, and all the other concubines left the palace. Those who had daughters stayed with their daughters in the princess's mansion, while those who didn't had daughters were given some money to leave the palace to retire.

The entire palace has only one owner.

The emperor is a man who works hard to govern the country and always keeps his word.

Ministers were elected through imperial examinations in recent years, and the majority were young. Among them, Sun Qing had risen to the position of Minister of Personnel. Sun Quan and Chai Jiayu led troops to the rank of general. The veteran generals had all retired to enjoy their retirement. The court was dominated by the young.

The Qilian Kingdom has been severely beaten in recent years, but it still refuses to change its mind.

Ye Heng was called back to prepare to go to the front line again. Guo Guo wanted to go, so Ye Heng arranged for Guo Guo to wear men's clothes and dress as a personal bodyguard.

Guoguo gathered the men in black and the adopted children together, and 500 of them were ready to follow Guoguo to the front. Jiale came with 800 secret guards and followed secretly. The elite soldiers grew from 5,000 to 10,000, and there were still 50,000 troops. That's about 60,000 people. Guoguo and the military department, who were good at mechanical calculations, developed pistols and bombs. The 10,000 elite soldiers were equipped. They went to the front line - Zhongzhou Prefecture in the northeast, to fight against the soldiers of Qilian Kingdom. In the past five years, a dragon boat was developed and was on standby at the front line. The navy - the men in black went in front. They followed closely behind. Guoguo had stored enough food in the space, so he didn't have to worry about having nothing to eat. In the past few years, the Great Yan Kingdom has become rich and strong. The army is strong and the horses are powerful.

When it got dark that day, Ye Heng ordered the camp to be set up on the spot. Tents had already been made, and cloth made of linen and cotton threads was sewn by machine, and as much as was needed was available.

Simple and quick. Guoguo cooked in her tent, setting up a pot to cook. She cooked for several people. Her father, Uncle Sun Quan's Ye Heng, his lieutenant, and the housekeeper were too old to come. The lieutenant accompanied Ye Heng, also serving as a protective guard. Guoguo cooked quickly. She simply fried the meat slices and added the gravy to the noodles. It was delicious and quick. She added the vegetables to the pot and removed them at the same time as the noodles. They all ate from large bowls. Guoguo ate from her own bowl. Afterward, Ye Heng or Lao Si washed the pot. She brought her own bowl.

After a short rest, we set off again.

The army marched quickly to the front lines of Zhongzhou Prefecture. Stationed in Zhongzhou was Qin Huan, the son of General Qin. A young man, he had followed his father into battle at a young age and was battle-hardened. However, the enemy was too numerous and strong, and his own soldiers were physically inferior, so he couldn't send anyone back to the capital for reinforcements. The quality of the soldiers was more important than their quantity, but with the enemy's numbers increasing, even a small number of men was no match. The disparity in strength was too great. Ye Heng traveled by day and slept by night, arriving at the front lines a month and a half later. Our army had been beaten so badly that it was unable to fight back. The vanguard of elite soldiers rescued Qin Huan and hung up a banner refusing to fight, awaiting reinforcements. Ye Heng and his men stationed outside the city walls to block the enemy. Ye Heng had already sent out scouts to gather information about the enemy. As soon as he arrived, someone reported, "Scouts want to see the prince." "Come in," Ye Heng said. "What news?" The scout knelt on one knee and said, "This time it's the Qilian Kingdom. The three princes are leading an army of 200,000, leading the way. We hear there are reinforcements coming from behind." Ye Heng said, "Let's scout again. Wait." Ye Heng handed the scout a telescope. Guo Guo gave the scout a canteen of water, bread, and other provisions. Guo Guo said, "Take care of yourselves." She then took out a few lighters and gave them to the scouts. They had never seen one before, so Guo Guo taught them how to start a fire. The scouts were touched by the kindness of the people they had met. "Thank you," they said, and left. Guo Guo packed her tent and prepared to leave, taking out what she needed and packing what she didn't. Guo Guo poured hot water and tea for Ye Heng. Ye Heng then arrived at the central tent, where several generals were waiting. Ye Heng shared the news the scouts had gathered, and they discussed the military situation together.

After packing up the tent, Guoguo went to the space to make explosives, and Xiao Shunzi gave Guoguo instructions.

With explosives in hand, Guoguo was not afraid of war, but was afraid of hidden arrows and villains. She placed several cameras in a hidden place outside the tent, so she could see everything around the tent clearly. Xiao Shunzi also helped to keep an eye on the outside.

After a few days of surveillance, nothing was discovered. However, Guoguo remained vigilant and assigned Xiao Shunzi to monitor him 24/7. A red hairpin nestled among Guoguo's hair had a small object on it, representing Xiao Shunzi's eyes, constantly monitoring the surroundings. During the day, Guoguo's hair looked unnoticeable, but at night, it sparkled, and I almost thought it was the beads on the hairpin, but they were actually his eyes. Xiao Shunzi was an obedient child who cooperated perfectly with his master. Guoguo loved him dearly!

It can also fire lasers at the enemy on the battlefield - a combat weapon and a cheating tool.

Three days later, Ye Heng agreed to attack first. They dined at midnight and set out at midnight. While the enemy slept, Ye Heng launched his attack. Guo Guo flanked him, sword in one hand, rifle in the other. He carried a bomb on his waist. He took a few steps forward and hurled it at the enemy's densest point, detonating a large area and creating opportunities for the soldiers behind him. Guo Guo's coordinate system, constantly scanning the surroundings, fired when necessary. Even the enemy's superior martial arts proved ineffective, forcing them to retreat repeatedly. To combat the enemy, Ye Heng led his secret guards and special forces, firing at the enemy from the front. The surrounding area was littered with corpses and wounded soldiers. He advanced forward, followed by the soldiers who finished off the attack.

Guoguo's bombs were used to their full potential. The enemy suffered heavy casualties, while their own side suffered more minor injuries than fatalities. Chen Jun led his disciples to bandage the wounded and take them to the rear for rest. The lightly wounded soldiers were reluctant to leave the battlefield and continue fighting. The Black-clad men killed Xikan in the enemy's midfield, disrupting the enemy's formation and preventing them from coordinating their forces. This was crucial to their victory. At dawn, Ye Heng ordered a retreat, "Don't pursue the enemy." The battle was quickly over. Guoguo dove around the battlefield, gathering warhorses from the space while no one was paying attention, while Ye Heng covered him, running to his left and right. Guoguo secretly instructed everyone to smear the dead with items, demanding not a single piece of paper be lost. The gold and silver were also to be taken, resulting in a bountiful harvest. At night, everyone Guoguo met with handed over their spoils to Guoguo, saying, "I'll keep them for you. Ask for them when you need them." "Master, we know," Guoguo said jokingly. "I can't wait to hold your child."

Man in black: "Yes, we will give you whatever your master wants. When we go back, we will find a woman and make a baby." Guoguo, hahahaha!

"Go back and get some rest. You don't need to stand guard tonight. I'll do it." "Okay." The men in black returned to their tents to eat and rest. They were provided with beef—it was all cooked meat Guoguo had prepared before they arrived, and everyone brought plenty. Guoguo had said, "One's own children should be taken care of by oneself." Guoguo treated the men in black as if they were her own children, her own family.

Seeing Guoguo still wandering outside, Ye Heng came over and said, "Take a rest. I'll arrange someone to keep watch." Guoguo: "Okay, let's sleep together." Ye Heng: Okay.

Ye Heng Ninja, it will take a few more years. I can only hug and kiss her and ask for some interest. Ye Heng can't get angry, so he can only sleep. His girl is too young! Cultivation system! That's it.

After a night, the fireman prepared breakfast and blew the horn—the signal for dinner. The soldiers lined up for their meals, and soon they were all served large white steamed buns and meat and vegetables. The army ate well with Guoguo around. As much meat and vegetables as the soldiers wanted, they had them! Ye Heng always ordered extra food to be prepared, leaving no room for shortages.

This battle forced the enemy to retreat fifty miles and wait for reinforcements.

Our scouts, using their full capabilities, reported back to Ye Heng how far the reinforcements were from the enemy and how far they were from our own army. Ye Heng planned to bypass the enemy lines and attack the reinforcements from behind. Ye Heng personally led a force of 10,000 cavalrymen, setting out in the middle of the night to scout and lead the way. Of course, Guo Guo rode ahead, accompanied by the men in black. This was a fresh force, incredibly brave! Guo Guo's personal guards. Over 200 children followed the men in black, demonstrating their formidable abilities, both civil and military.

In a decisive battle, the scouts' accurate information played a decisive role in Ye Heng's military arrangements. He arranged an ambush on the approaching enemy line, and only after the enemy had passed did Ye Heng lead his troops to attack. Guo Guo led the pistol team, hitting them with every strike, using pistols and bombs simultaneously. Later, Ye Heng arrived on horseback, and the soldiers rushed to the front. As a result, our casualties in this battle were minimal, with most of them suffering minor injuries and surviving. The enemy ahead was still waiting for reinforcements, but they had already been defeated, leaving their weapons and armor in disarray.

Ye Heng led a large group of people back to the camp for a short rest, preparing to discuss the final decisive battle with the soldiers in the city.

Five days later, the scouts found out that the fleeing enemy reinforcements had reunited with the soldiers in the front. Ye Heng thought it was a good opportunity. The enemy had just gathered together and had not yet unified their combat deployment. It was the best time to attack.

At dusk, the firemen had already prepared the meal. The soldiers finished eating and waited for Ye Heng's order. It was almost midnight. Ye Heng shouted, "Let's go."

Guoguo set off, laser rifles blazing ahead to clear the way. The men in black flanked them, and the children followed closely behind their master. They not only fought to kill the enemy, but also to protect Yeheng and Guoguo. As infantrymen, following the cavalry, they had to run fast. The children, the oldest only seventeen, the youngest eight or nine, all charged forward without a word. Even if they couldn't kill the enemy, they still charged forward, with the elders protecting them; they couldn't lose their momentum. They charged forward fearlessly, fearless of death. So, Guoguo, firing ahead, was thinking of the children. Giving them the opportunity to train in battle, the soldiers charged even harder. It was the final sprint, blood flowing like a river. Several children were injured. This piece of cloth was used to bandage the seriously injured. The children showed no fear, and Guoguo later took them into his fold, protecting them through thick and thin. These were the first group of children. As they grew older, they all followed Guoguo.

The battle was earth-shattering, with countless casualties, naturally among the enemy. In the end, the enemy was so terrified that they abandoned their weapons and fled, leaving only a handful of men. Six months later, a letter of surrender was delivered to the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom. This ended a historic battle in which a small force triumphed over a large one. For the next hundred years, no more wars were fought—the Qilian Kingdom was severely weakened.

Ten days later, after the repairs were complete, Ye Heng left behind a large amount of grain and seeds. Guoguo shared the greenhouse construction plan with General Qin, who remained stationed in Zhongzhou to protect Dayan. In their spare time, they cultivated the land and raised their own troops. The emperor would allocate more food, ensuring the soldiers were well fed and not starving. Guoguo left behind a group of good horses, taking the weak and injured ones with her to be raised in her own space.

Qin Huan said happily, "I'll come back to Beijing to find you! We're good friends now." Guo Guo said, "A life-or-death friendship." Guo Guo also left him a lot of cattle and sheep. Qin Huan grinned happily. Hahahahahahahaha. "I've made this friend for sure."
