Dian Yan lamented, "Unfortunately, it's still too late."
Feng Jin nodded in agreement and echoed, "It's indeed too late. If Nie Xun had abolished Yuan Xin earlier, maybe my lord …"
He stopped here. If Nie Xun had full control over the deployment of the troops in Chenzhou and Yuan Xin had assisted from the side, maybe Jiang Pengji would have suffered a great loss. Nie Xun's methods were not comparable to Yuan Xin's. Yuan Xin could lead troops to war, but he was far inferior to Nie Xun when it came to planning.
It was taboo to let a layman command an expert in a war.
Yuan Xin was not a layman, but he was radical and reckless. He could easily mess things up.
Yuan Xin could be a good knife, but he was not good at holding it.
Dian Yan was Jiang Pengji's secret fan. Although his symptoms were not as obvious as Jiang Nongqin's, he also had a lot of confidence in Jiang Pengji. Hearing Feng Jin's words, Dian Yan retorted, "Even if Nie Xun alone controls Chenzhou, he can't do anything to my lord."
Feng Jin smiled and said, "Yes, my lord is naturally the strongest."
The fan was right. Feng Jin and Yang Si were the same. They had long given up on communicating with them.
What was the "strongest" Jiang Pengji doing in Feng Jin's words?
She had led the troops in Chenzhou and had enough fun. She left a mess for Feng Jin to deal with and left with her people.
When Yuan Xin was murdered, she was only halfway there. In ancient times, the transmission of information was so backward. It would take some time for her to receive news. If she knew, she would definitely give Nie Xun a double-click and leave a like. This move was very satisfying!
Jiang Pengji rode on Little White's back and leisurely, humming a strange tune.
Her leisurely manner did not seem like she was leading troops to war. Instead, she looked like she was taking a group of children on a picnic in the suburbs.
"What tune is my lord humming?"
He originally thought that his lord was humming casually, but after listening carefully for a while, he realized that a few of the tunes were repeated and not randomly hummed.
It was different from the current tunes. The tune his lord was humming sounded very fresh.
Jiang Pengji said in a cheerful tone, "March of the 10 Federal Armies."
Yang Si could understand each word of the sentence when it was separated, but he could not understand it when it was put together.
Yang Si asked in surprise, "March of the 10 Federal Armies? What kind of place is the Federation? "
Jiang Pengji took advantage of the fact that Yang Si did not understand, so she simply fooled him. "The place I dreamed of was a faraway land of freedom."
Even though it had been almost ten years since she transmigrated, Jiang Pengji still missed her hometown. She had never forgotten it.
"Freedom Village?" Yang Si replied with an "oh" and asked casually, "What kind of place is that?"
Jiang Pengji recalled for a while and said calmly, "A place full of wars."
For as long as she could remember, the Federation had been involved in countless wars. If it wasn't for the fact that the war situation was dire, the Federation wouldn't have needed to activate the genetic warrior project.
Jiang Pengji could be considered a victim of the plan, but at the same time, she was also a beneficiary.
Without this plan, she would have died a long time ago, or become a normal citizen protected by others.
Yang Si said in surprise, "A place that's filled with war … Can it be called the Land of Freedom?"
Jiang Pengji smiled. "Maybe it's because … the people in the dream started the war to fight for freedom? It was just like how the feudal vassals were vying for the world right now. Weapons were being raised everywhere, and it was also for the sake of pacifying the world. War is not good, but it is also a means to achieve goals … "
"Starting a war to pacify the world. If this gets out, I don't know how many people will criticize and denounce you." Yang Si shook his head. "The feudal lords fight for the world for their own selfish desires. It's definitely not as magnanimous as my lord makes it out to be. My lord is different from them … "
Jiang Pengji smiled and asked in return, "What's different?"
"My lord fights for the sake of peace in the nine prefectures. You said this from the bottom of your heart. Not only do I believe it, but others also believe it. People are different from each other. The other feudal lords are different. Not everyone has such high moral integrity and awareness as you. To give the simplest example, my lord is willing to empty her private treasury for the sake of the people and the soldiers. Over the years, she has continuously invested tens of millions of coins and rarely used the public treasury. Others can't wait to squeeze the people and the soldiers dry and exploit their only interests as much as possible. They use their power to take the public treasury as their private property. Who would believe that people like that say that they fight for the world for the sake of the people and not for the supreme power and status in the world? "
Yang Si did not admit that he was flattering his lord. He was just telling the truth.
From this point of view, it was not unreasonable for Jiang Nongqin to flatter the lord all day long.
Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "I didn't expect Jing Rong to think so highly of me. In order to live up to your praise, I have to do my best."
Yang Si coughed awkwardly. He inadvertently saw Jiang Nongqin's gaze. Her gaze was filled with one sentence —
You have good taste!
Yang Si was speechless.
What kind of experience would it be if the woman he liked was a brain-dead fan?
The answer was: It was as if a green grassland had grown on my head and I could herd sheep at any time.
Jiang Pengji said, "I have to hurry up."
Yang Si was surprised. "Hurry up? Hurry up with what? "
Jiang Pengji said, "Military reform."
"Didn't my lord say that it would be changed after the war is over?"
Reform had always been about both risks and benefits. If it was not done well, it could cause a fatal disaster. Yang Si hoped that she could be more cautious.
Jiang Pengji said, "It was indeed arranged until after the war is over, but it can be put on the agenda now. Give me some advice."
The march was too boring. Even if there were idle fish in the live streaming room to amuse her, she could not indulge in the bullet screen. Yang Si was a sharp-eyed person.
She had to be careful when she occasionally looked at the bullet screen to prevent Yang Si from discovering any clues.
She had to find something to do to pass the time.
Yang Si asked, "How do you plan to change it, my lord?"
Jiang Pengji said, "I'm not very satisfied with the current military system. The authority and responsibilities are not clear, which slows down efficiency. The distribution of soldiers' pay is not clear. There are always villains who take advantage of the loopholes to eat without pay. No matter how strong the elites are, they can't stand being nibbled away by pests … There are also military discipline and rules. They were done well in the past, but there are still people who knowingly break the law. It must be because the price of committing a crime is too low, which encourages their arrogance … "
She wanted to be lazy and directly copy the federal military system, but she knew that it would not work. In order to maximize the benefits, Jiang Pengji could only deepen and improve the original basic items. She divided the authority and responsibilities, which was in line with the background of the times and could be accepted by people.
Because she was born in the military and received genetic warrior training since she was young, she went to the battlefield at a young age, so she deeply understood how important powerful force was. Whether it was a country or a force, dignity, rights, and status all needed the support of powerful force.
She wanted to carve out a bloody path in the chaotic world and build a country that was respected by all nations. Without powerful force, everything was empty talk.
The army must be managed well. Military reform was inevitable.
In her opinion, the current military system was terrible. There were so many drawbacks that she could talk about them for three to five hours.
Jiang Pengji did not intend to complete the military reform in one go. She planned to take it step by step and reduce the turbulence and backlash as much as possible.
