After rebirth, I became a national teacher

The master of the temple is obviously not at all like his father.

But he just felt that the master of the temple at this moment was as powerful and reliable in his eyes as his father was in his childhood.

He opened his heart involuntarily and didn't want to say those high-sounding words at all.

"Master, Xinnan is so useless. It's only been a few months, but I feel so tired and exhausted."

Even though he had Uncle Yong sent by his father to help him, there were many things that he and Uncle Yong could not touch.

Chen Qingzhu was a little surprised to hear his suppressed sobs, but did not take it as an offense.

She likes capable subordinates, but she also likes them to open their hearts and rely on her like a parent.

"Oh, what's wrong?"

Zheng Yuannai told her about the current situation of several garrisons in Songhu. The superiors colluded with their subordinates, embezzled military pay, and exploited military households, but he was powerless to do anything.

"Master, when will the generals be able to have sufficient food and grass to focus on fighting and training without all these disturbances?"

It can be seen that this kind-hearted general was really distressed and sad about this.

Chen Qingzhu said:

"It won't take too long, I promise. But before that, no matter how hard it is, you have to bear the brunt for those soldiers, understand?"

This doesn't seem like ordinary comfort, but more like a solemn promise and entrustment.

Zheng Yuannai didn’t know why the abbot was so confident, but his words made people believe them from the bottom of their hearts.

The thorny road ahead is not endless. The master of the temple said that it won’t be long before there will always be an end.

He suddenly felt that the depression in his heart was instantly dissipated, and the expression on his face became bright and cheerful:

"Master, I just want to complain a few words, but I won't be defeated by them easily!"

After asking about other military situations, Chen Qingzhu had a good understanding of this garrison, so he asked:

"Regarding this defense against the Japanese, how did you arrange it?"

This is a military secret and should not be told to anyone other than senior military officers.

But Zheng Yuannai had no such concerns towards his own master.

When he heard Chen Qingzhu's question, he immediately told him all the arrangements he had discussed with Fan Dayong.

At present, he has deployed two thousand troops in four fortresses near the coastline.

These four fortresses were carefully selected by him and Fan Dayong based on the specific conditions of the more than 400-mile coastline.

Two of them are located near areas with abundant grain production, and there is a lot of business travel between the two nearby small towns.

These are all places that the Japanese pirates are likely to visit.

In addition, he also repaired all the beacon towers used for warnings near the coastline.

There was a beacon tower every twenty miles, with five soldiers stationed at each tower so that they could give an alarm as soon as they spotted the Japanese pirates.

Chen Qingzhu listened to these arrangements and was also thinking about their feasibility.

Although she was not a general who led troops to fight, she had witnessed many wars during her eight years as a wandering soul in her previous life and when she traveled in the world of cultivation.

A cultivator can travel 20,000 miles a day in a flying boat, and the wandering souls can travel at the same speed as the wind.

Compared with ordinary people who find it difficult to see the overall picture, her cognition is often more global and she can more easily see the essence.

In her opinion, Zheng Yuannai's arrangements were too routine.

It can be said that there is not much difference between what other anti-Japanese generals did.

The only difference is that he has to work harder and the soldiers under his command are slightly more powerful.

But if we want to rely on these to successfully intercept the Japanese pirates and win a beautiful victory, it is still not enough.

As we all know, the biggest difficulty in chasing and intercepting the Japanese pirates is their unpredictable whereabouts.

Often, when the government troops received intelligence about the Japanese pirates' whereabouts, by the time they rushed over, the pirates had already disappeared without a trace.

Moreover, except for the famous general who fought against the Japanese pirates in the previous dynasty, the government troops' ambushes against the Japanese pirates always failed.

The Japanese pirates would never appear in places heavily guarded by government troops.

The reason is self-evident.

There are definitely traitors among the government troops, and there are quite a few of them.
