My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.
Chapter 175 Promotion
"After all these years, you're still the same person."
Thinking of the past, Prince Rui smiled and ordered Liang Sheng's favorite pastries to be served.
As soon as the pastries were served, Liang Sheng forgot everything else and focused solely on savoring them. While eating, he compared the pastries from the Prince's Mansion with the dishes made by Ji Yunshuang.
The conclusion was that although the pastries at the Prince's Mansion were exquisite, Ji Yunshuang's were still the tastier.
Prince Rui shook his head as he looked at him and said, "Even someone like Elder Xie didn't care about her female identity, took her as his disciple, and even brought her into the army... It seems that she is not only special, but also has extraordinary abilities."
This made him somewhat want to meet Ji Yunshuang, to see just how extraordinary she was, that she could make Old Master Xie and his son abandon their principles one after another.
Liang Sheng stopped what he was doing and looked at Prince Rui, saying, "But what trouble has my niece caused since joining the army?"
In front of his old friend, Prince Rui did not hide anything and told him about Ji Yunshuang's affairs in the army.
Liang Sheng had long known that Ji Yunshuang was no ordinary person, but upon hearing Prince Rui's words, he was still so shocked that he almost dropped the pastries in his hands.
After a long pause, he said, "This... does indeed seem like something she would do. So, Your Highness, do you think she can succeed?"
Prince Rui was naturally hoping for Ji Yunshuang's success.
If Ji Yunshuang's plan succeeds, it will save them a lot of troops.
But she only brought a little over a hundred new recruits, which is truly unbelievable.
Based on Prince Rui's experience, she was destined to lose.
He said, "Let's wait for news first!"
Thinking about how Ji Yunshuang only brought a hundred new recruits to stop the Qi army, Liang Sheng lost his interest in food for the first time.
He looked outside somewhat impatiently, and finally stood up and said, "Your Highness, what's the point of waiting here? Why don't we go and take a look?"
Prince Rui was also tempted.
"If I'm not mistaken, the Qi army intends to cross the river at Hanfeng Pass. If our army wants to stop them from crossing, we either need to ambush them at Jigong Mountain or engage them in battle at Hanfeng Pass."
Looking at the map, Liang Sheng analyzed, "Since Ji has brought few people, she probably won't choose to fight them head-on from the start. So she should set up an ambush at Jigong Mountain."
As he spoke, he pinched his chin.
Even if they set up an ambush at Jigong Mountain, a direct confrontation would still be inevitable in the end. With the small number of people she brought, he really couldn't figure out how Ji Yunshuang could break the deadlock.
Prince Rui was also looking at the map, and it seemed that no matter how you looked at it, Ji Yunshuang was destined to lose.
Even though he thought it was impossible, he inexplicably felt a sense of anticipation.
He ordered his men to bring out the horses and said, "Let's go take a look."
On the other hand, Ji Yunshuang had no idea that Liang Sheng had analyzed her possible behavior and even took Prince Rui to watch her fight.
The reason she dared to bring such a small group to stop Qi Jun was not only because her telekinetic manipulation had become increasingly powerful recently, but also because of the weapons in her spatial storage.
In the era of cold weapons, any weapon she took out from her space would be priceless.
However, for the time being, she didn't plan to take out weapons like submachine guns and grenades. Instead, she intended to use fire.
Contrary to Liang Sheng's analysis, Ji Yunshuang did not set up an ambush at Jigong Mountain, but chose to take action when the Qi army was crossing the river.
When the Qi army's ships were halfway there, she immediately ordered her men to launch rockets at them.
Unlike ordinary rockets of this era, the rockets Ji Yunshuang distributed to the soldiers were tampered with by her, incorporating modern technology.
Whether the rocket hits a person or a ship, it instantly turns into a sea of fire.
Ji Yunshuang had already anticipated Qi's counterattack.
Not only did they have people dig hiding spots in advance, but they also set up smoke bombs, making it impossible for the enemy to see their situation.
In addition, he would occasionally use his control over his telekinesis to build an invisible wall in front of him, blocking all the arrows back.
Thus, she led a hundred new recruits and dealt a heavy blow to the Qi army, achieving an absolute victory.
When the news reached the army, many people doubted their hearing.
Fu Zhe looked like he'd seen a ghost. "You didn't hear me wrong? She really won?"
The soldier who came to report the situation said, "That's right, the Qi army was routed by us and has retreated back to their original camp."
Fu Zhe still didn't believe it, and asked several times to confirm. Only after receiving affirmative answers each time did he have no choice but to accept the reality.
"She only brought so few people, how did she win? Were all the people she brought dead?"
Many people, like Fu Zhe, felt that even if Ji Yunshuang won, it would be a Pyrrhic victory.
When they heard that all the people she had taken had returned unharmed, everyone wore an expression of disbelief.
Fu Zhezhi said directly, "That's impossible?"
The troops she brought were less than one-tenth the size of the Qi army, and they were all inexperienced new recruits.
How could she possibly defeat the Qi army without suffering any casualties?
"Someone must be helping her in secret, right?" Fu Zhe immediately thought of Fu Ci and felt that it must be Fu Ci who was secretly helping her.
He immediately ordered his men to investigate Fu Ci's movements.
Regardless of how much Fu Zhe and others disbelieved it, the fact that Ji Yunshuang led her troops to victory against overwhelming odds was undeniable.
Fu Ci kept his promise and immediately went to Prince Rui, frankly telling him the conditions they had previously discussed.
After saying that, Fu Ci added, “Father, I believe that we should employ people without being bound by conventions, and without being limited by gender. We should give important positions to Commander Ji.”
Ji Yunshuang led her troops to victory against overwhelming odds, and Prince Rui was in high spirits.
He rarely praised Fu Ci, saying he had good judgment and was thoughtful.
This was the first time in Fu Ci's life that he had ever heard his father utter so many words of praise all at once.
After praising his son, Prince Rui said, "Let's appoint that Ji family member as a military officer, commanding three thousand troops!"
Besides Ji Yunshuang, the hundred new recruits who followed her to intercept the Qi army also received rewards.
However, unlike Ji Yunshuang's rapid promotion of three ranks, the new recruits who went with her received rewards that were mostly in silver.
But even so, it's enough to make everyone happy.
Many of them thought they would lose their lives if they went out to fight, but they not only kept their lives, but also received a reward!
At this time, many soldiers trusted Ji Yunshuang very much, feeling that following her would ensure their safety when they went out to fight.
The fact that Ji Yunshuang, a woman, led troops to victory against the Qi army and was promoted three ranks quickly spread among the powerful and influential circles of Hongdu.
When they first heard the news, many people's first reaction was disbelief.
They felt that it was already a great disqualification for women to join the army, so how could they possibly let women lead troops into battle?
Moreover, how could there be such a powerful woman in this world?
Some even suspect that this information was deliberately leaked by Prince Rui to garner more support and convince people of his inevitable victory.
