Transmigration begins with archery training

"

"Your Highness, I have something to say."

Ming Qingfeng said with a serious expression and some emotion, "The Ministry of War arranged this battle in this way not to target Chen Sanshi, or out of so-called 'jealousy of talent.' He has no grudge against me, and I have no reason to cause trouble."

"My decision not to appoint General Chen is entirely for the sake of the court."

"Throughout a thousand years of history, in which dynasty or era did all the battles, large and small, have to rely on one person?"

"What kind of order is this? If things continue like this, what kind of behavior will this be?"

"Your Majesty, let me put it even more harshly."

"Your Highness keeps pleading with General Chen, could it be that our Great Sheng Dynasty is about to perish?!"

Looking at his passionate and impassioned questions.

Cao Zhi simply replied with two words: "Hard to say."

"How could Your Highness utter such a statement..."

Ming Qingfeng was somewhat annoyed.

But because of his status, he dared not argue with him.

"Twelfth Brother, you're exaggerating!"

Finally, it was Prince Cao Huan, the regent, who said in a deep voice: "Among all the officials present, no one denies General Chen's talent and ability to lead troops, but as Lord Ming said, a court must not rely on one person."

"If I had to name one, it would only be His Majesty! My father!"

"Your Highness, you don't need to worry."

Yan Maoxing said, "We know that you are also thinking of the country, but there is no need for that. We just need to wait quietly for the good news."

"Tsk tsk~"

Cao Zhi gently shook his head: "Everyone, then do as you please."

……

Yiling.

Supervising the standard army.

The Chinese military tent.

"puff--"

On his commanding seat, Qu Yuanxiang spat out all the wine he had just drunk, and roared in fury, "What kind of lousy wine is this? How dare you try to fool your Immortal Master Grandpa?!"

"Please calm down, Immortal Master."

A soldier said tremblingly, "This...this is a precious medicine that only generals above the Xuanxiang level can drink. We mortals simply don't have anything better."

"Even if you don't have it, go find it for me!"

Qu Yuanxiang cursed and smashed the wine jar on the soldiers: "If you can't find me any wine I can drink by tonight, I'll chop off your dog's head!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Blood flowed from the soldiers' heads on the spot, but they dared not object and hurriedly left the tent to find wine.

"I've worked so hard to help them fight this war, and I can't even get a drink of wine!"

Qu Yuanxiang muttered curses.

Beside him, Wang Jun, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them and gave him a disdainful look: "Noisy!"

"Is not it?"

Qu Yuanxiang stared wide-eyed and said, "If it weren't for you and me, those so-called generals, their heads would have been flying everywhere long ago."

"Once we take over the Mangshan Ancestral Vein, we'll both have Foundation Establishment Pills."

Wang Jun said coldly, "Be serious, this is a big deal for both of us."

……

Beside the large tent.

There was another camp, but it was deliberately built to be smaller, in order to highlight the difference in status.

"This is outrageous!" Lieutenant General Teng Le pressed his hand to the sword at his waist, pacing back and forth in anger. "That drunken immortal master beats and scolds our soldiers day and night!"

Even you and I don't get the slightest bit of a friendly look.

"This is simply outrageous! They don't even treat us like human beings!"

"They are immortal masters, and in the future, they are immortals who are expected to live forever. They are naturally superior to us, which is normal."

Tong Xiaochu ate her meal while keeping her eyes fixed on the map in front of her: "Besides, without the two immortal masters overseeing things, we wouldn't have been able to get here so smoothly."

"Having said that..."

Teng Le was about to complain, but Tong Xiaochu didn't listen and asked first, "What's the situation in Xiqi?"

"It's still the same as before."

Teng Le replied, "No matter how we try to lure them in or challenge them, they just won't show themselves. It seems we can't possibly get through them in a short time."

"It's alright, this was already part of our plan."

Tong Xiaochu put down her chopsticks: "In two to three months, the enemy will naturally retreat 500 li due to food shortages. That will be the time for us to pursue them and take them down in one fell swoop. Let's start preparing now. You should first transfer 20,000 troops from this place..."

"Report——"

Just as he was about to devise a strategy, a soldier rushed into the tent in a panic.

"what's up?"

Tong Xiaochu was somewhat displeased: "How many times have I told you, we soldiers must remain calm in the face of adversity. How can someone like you lead troops in the future? Speak, what is it? Is there a transfer order from the Ministry of War?"

"No."

The soldier held up an unopened letter with both hands: "A secret letter from the Liangzhou Governor's Office."

"The Governor's Mansion?"

Tong Xiaochu paused for a moment, then frowned slightly: "Why is Chen Sanshi writing a letter? This battle has nothing to do with him."

"The secret letter with the gold standard is only authorized for the Commander-in-Chief to read."

The soldier said, "A secret letter of this caliber must be related to the overall situation of this battle."

"I am the commander-in-chief in this battle! Do I need his guidance?!"

Tong Xiaochu held the secret letter without opening it, staring at the gold emblem on it, feeling an overwhelming sense of irritation: "Isn't Chen Sanshi taking himself way too seriously?!"

"Commander Tong".

Teng Le persuaded, "Why don't we take a look? General Chen is a master of military strategy after all. This battle is of great importance, and it would be good to incorporate some of his suggestions."

"Are you implying that I am ignorant of military matters?"

Tong Xiaochu snorted coldly: "Go and take a look at the Qilin Pavilion next to the Imperial Ancestral Temple on Ziwei Mountain! My Tong family ancestor ranked fourth among the twelve generals, and he was known for his strategy three hundred years ago!"

"I admit, the one surnamed Chen is formidable."

"However, my sword is not without its weaknesses!"

He said he placed the unopened letter over the candle flame, letting it burn from the bottom up, and then casually tossed it on the ground.

"Teng Le, take five hundred light cavalry and follow me out of Yiling to scout the terrain ahead!"

"Well... okay, I'll go right away."

Teng Le left helplessly.

Just as he led his men into the darkness, and there was no one else in the tent.

Tong Xiaochu quickly stomped out the flames on the letter, bent down to pick up the envelope, carefully opened it, and only breathed a long sigh of relief after confirming that most of the contents were undamaged.

How could he not take Chen Sanshi's advice?

What I did just now was nothing more than a show for others.

He was the true commander of this battle, and his prestige was of paramount importance.

If I were to open the letter in front of everyone and find that its contents differed from my plans, requiring immediate changes, wouldn't that be blatantly telling everyone what's going on?

Chen Sanshi saved me!

Then his prestige as a commander who had finally gained importance and control over the military would be completely destroyed.

But on the contrary!

If you watch it secretly in private.

If he has any good suggestions, he can claim them as his own ideas after adopting them.
