Marry a concubine? Reborn to move out of the mansion and marry a general

The Eastern Barbarians came well prepared, and they will attack with their entire army as soon as the war starts!

Every morning at dawn, enemy generals would challenge each other in front of the city gate, shouting that they would lead an army of 100,000 to capture the capital of Wu!

Although an army of 100,000 is a bit exaggerated, but judging from the intelligence obtained, the Dongman have indeed put their entire national strength on the line this time!

Dayou has the ambition to take over the entire Western Shu in one fell swoop while the internal chaos in Western Shu is going on!

In order to conceal their presence, the army that followed Ning Weizhou was actually less than 50,000 in total, and was divided into several groups, each hiding in a mountain 50 miles away from Xishu.

They gathered together only after the war started, and they had to deal with the group of rotten soldiers in Xishu first.

Fortunately, these 50,000 troops were well-trained, brave and good at fighting, and they were able to repel several all-out attacks from the Eastern Barbarians.

But with the enemy in front and the burdens behind, the soldiers from top to bottom were holding their breath since Ning Weizhou started the battle!

In order to enforce military discipline, Ning Weizhou would personally chop off a few heads of his own soldiers every time a battle broke out!

These people either disobeyed orders, or deserted the battlefield, or spread rumors.

Anyone who disrupts the morale of the army will be killed without mercy!

However, the Eastern Barbarians were coming in force, and it was clear that the 50,000 troops Ning Weizhou brought with him were not enough.

Besides, these 50,000 troops came from other places and were less familiar with the terrain than the soldiers who had been stationed in Western Shu.

Ning Weizhou and his generals had no rest day or night.

In addition to fighting back, he also had to win over more Western Shu soldiers to serve him.

In war, the right time, right place and right people are all essential!

Ning Weizhou was busy at the front, and Gu Feiwan was also lobbying in various cities in Western Shu.

The staff provided by the Tang and Lu families were indeed useful. They were all people of some reputation in various places.

Hearing that the Eastern Barbarians were invading the border and the army was short of men, they raised their arms and called for help. Gu Feiwan personally guaranteed the generous treatment for all the recruits. In addition, the people of Western Shu were inherently warlike and passionate.

Ning Weizhou's methods in the Lu Qirui case also made the people trust this young general more.

Countless young men responded to the call-up for the army. Even some older men picked up their hoes from home, clamoring to go to the front lines to dig off a few heads of the Eastern Barbarians!

However, these people could not solve the urgent problem. If new recruits were sent to the battlefield without training, they would be used as human targets by the enemy and would disrupt the formation of the regular army.

But the people's enthusiasm was aroused, and they were no longer afraid. Instead, their morale was high, and every household tried their best to provide food and clothing for the soldiers on the front line.

For those whose family members were serving in the army, the elders wrote a letter to their families overnight and asked Gu Feiwan to pass it on. In the letter, they earnestly urged the younger generations to do their best to annihilate the enemy and never retreat and bring shame to the clan!

Some people who are illiterate have to ask others to write for them, and they even bite their fingers and leave a bloody mark!

With the support of the people, it will be easier to catch spies throughout Western Shu!

The common people could not go to the battlefield to dig a hoe. When they heard that catching the Eastern Barbarian spies who had sneaked into Western Shu was no less difficult than killing ten Eastern Barbarian soldiers, their eyes widened immediately, and they wanted to dig in the rat holes!

When they saw a new face, they all rushed to get ahead, fearing that if they were a little slow, someone else would take away the credit.

The reward is secondary. The main thing is that the government will also award you a medal.

With this medal, you can be exempted from some taxes in the future.

For some unimportant jobs in the government, the children of these families would be given priority in recruitment.

During festivals, the government would send people to visit the people with rice, flour, grain and oil.

These are tangible benefits that are both affordable and glorious!

If you are luckier, you may even meet the general's wife who has been patrolling various cities. In this case, in addition to the medal awarded by the government, you can also receive a thank-you letter written by the general's wife herself!

At the end of the thank-you letter, there were seals of both the general and his wife!

We have to take this back and have someone frame it and hang it on the wall. In the future, even if the county magistrate comes, he will have to kowtow in their room before he dares to speak!

The people from all over Western Shu were united as never before. Every day they either wrote letters home and had them delivered to the front line, or went out for a walk to see if they could meet a stranger!

With everyone being a soldier, the city’s public security has suddenly reached the point where doors are left unlocked at night and people don’t pick up things on the streets!

Qingshuang's round face became thinner, and her clothes, which once fitted her well, began to sway.

Nanny Zhu felt sorry for her and stayed up all night to re-tailor her clothes.

"Don't worry, Mammy. I used to worry about not being able to lose weight, but now I finally got what I wanted!"

Qingshuang's face had become much darker in the cool breeze of Western Sichuan, and her once delicate skin was now covered with a layer of white powdery flakes.

When I was washing up at night, I screamed in pain as soon as the face towel touched my face!

But even so, this girl still happily ran around all day long, and whenever someone asked for help, she would warmly welcome them.

Whether she was writing letters or asking about the battle situation at the front, Qingshuang always had a smile on her face, making people feel as if they were in the spring breeze and at ease.

A few days ago, I followed Gu Feiwan to Qingshan City. When I was writing a letter for someone at the government gate, I met Wang Zhong's mother.

Widow Wang squeezed forward, took out the insole she was holding in her arms, and asked carefully if it could be sent to the army. She also asked Qingshuang if she had seen Wang Zhong recently.

Gu Feiwan was afraid that Qingshuang would feel uncomfortable, and wanted to ask Qingshuang to leave, but Qingshuang raised her head, her smile still bright, and she said patiently as she treated other military dependents:

"Every five days, someone from the army will come to collect these. General Wang is the deputy general under the general. He is easy to find and will deliver them. Before the war, General Wang came to inform my wife. I saw him from a distance, but we didn't get to talk. If you have something to take with you, I'll write it down for you and put it in the insole. He will see it."

In the eyes of others, she was indeed the maidservant of the general's wife from the capital. Her demeanor and words were truly extraordinary!

Only Gu Feiwan and Nanny Zhu knew how much frustration Qingshuang was feeling in her heart!

Qingshuang is a girl who can't keep things to herself. She will vent when she is angry and shout when she has something to say.

But now, although he clearly didn't want to see Wang Zhong's family, he could still behave like this in this situation.

"It was really worth the experience!" Nanny Zhu expressed admiration and heartache.

Gu Feiwan was also very pleased that the girls around her had grown up and no longer needed her to protect them in everything.

Widow Wang hesitated and wanted to say more or ask more questions, but the people behind her were urging her to leave, so she had to put down her insoles and leave, looking back every few steps.

"Miss, your feet are so swollen, you should take a rest tomorrow. If you have anything to ask, just tell me and I will definitely take care of it!"

While Nanny Zhu was sewing clothes, Qingshuang came to Gu Feiwan's side, drove away the servant girl, squatted down and helped Gu Feiwan wipe her feet.

Seeing that Gu Feiwan's feet were swollen beyond recognition, he said distressedly:

"If the general saw this, he would probably lose his temper!"
