Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Wish Check-in Machine

Xia Mingwei was intently practicing her swordplay, never expecting that one day her efforts would earn her a chance to climb the social ladder. Until she was summoned, she was still unaware of what had happened.

Along the way, the two soldiers who delivered the message kept talking to her, and she finally understood the whole story.

"Xia Wei, you're really lucky! You just went out to practice your skills and the General noticed you! The General wants to cultivate you!" One of the soldiers said sourly, his voice filled with envy.

The other person in the group was more knowledgeable than him, and quickly nudged his arm, signaling him to stop talking!

Xia Wei is a different person now than before. How can we treat him casually? He has already earned a reputation with General Wu. If he can receive personal guidance from General Wu, his rise to prominence is only a matter of time!

If you don't curry favor now, when will you? Saying such sarcastic things now is just for show, to make yourself feel good. But what if Hawaii remembers it and retaliates later?

Thinking of this, the man's smile widened even more. "Xia Wei, if you ever become successful, don't forget your brothers who have gone through thick and thin with you!"

After being reminded by him, the man seemed to realize what was happening and turned to speak kindly to Xia Mingwei.

"That's right! That's right! We even came from the same military camp!"

It's common for people to fawn over the powerful and look down on the weak, so Xia Mingwei didn't say anything in response to their obsequiousness. Fortunately, the general's camp wasn't far; it was just a short walk away!

The two men led Xia Mingwei to the front of the tent, where Xia Mingwei accepted the summons alone.

Upon entering the tent, the first thing that caught Xia Mingwei's eye was a well-laid-out map. The hills, valleys, and rivers were clearly visible on the map, and seeing this, Xia Mingwei couldn't help but admire the wisdom of the ancients.

Before she could even react, General Wu had already turned around and come to her side.

Looking at General Wu so close at hand, Xia Mingwei suddenly remembered something. Military ranks were strictly hierarchical; she should bow to General Wu!

Thinking of this, she was about to bow when General Wu beat her to it and helped her up.

Legend has it that General Wu commanded an army known for its strict discipline and formidable strength. General Wu himself was a cold-blooded and ruthless figure. It was said he could kill without blinking an eye, and remain unmoved even if Mount Tai collapsed before him.

The legendary, stern General Wu was now looking at her with a beaming smile. Xia Mingwei felt a bit schizophrenic; she simply couldn't reconcile the smiling old man before her with the legendary iron-fisted general.

What surprised Xia Mingwei even more was that General Wu uttered a proverb that has been around for thousands of years.

Do you remember who I am?

Upon hearing this question, Xia Mingwei searched her memory and confirmed that she indeed had no memory of General Wu before shaking her head at him with some doubt.

"You don't remember me? I'm your Uncle Wu! I even held you when you were little!"

Xia Mingwei rolled her eyes inwardly, wanting nothing more than to yell at the heavens, "Damn it! When will this phrase be kicked out of the language system?!"

Although she was inwardly complaining, Xia Mingwei remained outwardly calm.

"Maybe I'm too young to remember!" she replied politely.

“That’s right, you were indeed young back then, so it’s normal to forget! Do you remember when your mother had just given birth to you and your sister, your father was as happy as a child every day! He would pull me aside to drink, saying that he had a successor! You were just a little baby back then, and now you’ve grown up so much! Now, I’m old too, and your father…” General Wu didn’t finish his sentence, but anyone who heard it would understand what he was thinking.

However, General Wu was right about one thing: the original owner's father did hope that Xia Wei would inherit his mantle, become a soldier, and protect the country. But Xia Wei was disappointing; he practiced his skills inconsistently, wasting his father's expectations.

But now that she has arrived, she is determined to fulfill Xia Shengtin's wish and become the first female general of this dynasty.

"However, you're not married yet, how could your mother bear to let you come to the battlefield?"

Xia Mingwei had only just learned that General Wu was a close friend of Xia Shengtin, so naturally she dared not tell him the whole truth. Moreover, she felt that General Wu's character still needed to be tested. If he could pass Xia Mingwei's test, then revealing the truth wouldn't be out of the question!

“My mother is naturally reluctant to leave, but protecting our home and country is my inescapable responsibility! Without a country, where is our home? If everyone is afraid of death, who will protect our little family?”

General Wu was deeply moved by Xia Mingwei's words and couldn't help but exclaim, "Well said! I never expected that my nephew would have such profound insight at such a young age!"

"After your father passed away, General Xia's brilliance was no more on the battlefield! At first, I thought no one would inherit your father's mantle, but now that I've seen you, I realize I spoke too soon! Your father has a worthy successor!"

"I dare not make any grand promises about inheriting my father's mantle! But I only hope that I can be like my father, fighting on the battlefield and serving my country!"

Hearing this, General Wu was even more delighted!

"From now on, you'll stay by my side and serve as my adjutant!"

Being around a general and watching him handle affairs allows one to learn a great deal. Now that General Wu has personally offered Xia Mingwei this opportunity, she certainly won't refuse! If she can receive his guidance, she feels she can reach even greater heights.

Thinking of this, she was extremely excited and happily agreed.

And so, Xia Mingwei spent her days listening to the generals discuss military matters and her nights practicing martial arts. Although these days were simple and monotonous, they gave Xia Mingwei a profound sense of satisfaction. Every so often, she could clearly feel the progress in her martial arts skills.

Xia Mingwei was like a sponge, greedily absorbing all kinds of knowledge. Under General Wu's careful guidance, she gradually became a qualified soldier.

Time flies, and Xia Mingwei has already spent two years in the military camp. During these two years, Zhou Ying has never written her a letter or sent her a package.

Seeing the joy in the eyes of her brothers who had received letters from home, Xia Mingwei felt genuinely good to them. After all, in this era, it truly reflected Du Fu's poem, "War raged for three months; a letter from home was worth a thousand pieces of gold!"

Let these people be happy! After all, in this era of uncertainty, who can guarantee that they will be among the next people to emerge alive from the battlefield?
