"Subordinate Li Yun greets my lord!"
"Subordinate Jiang Nongqin greets my lord!"
After clearing the battlefield and capturing the captives, Li Yun and Jiang Nongqin led their respective horses to Jiang Pengji and half-knelt to pay their respects.
Jiang Pengji leaned against a withered tree on the open ground and held a weed in her mouth. She said, "Get up, sit down and rest."
Li Yun was startled. Jiang Nongqin sat beside Jiang Pengji with a cold face.
"Nongqin is indeed cuter. Han Mei, you are so restrained. It doesn't feel like you are your usual self." She was a cute little angel on a daily basis and a cold and aloof prince charming on the battlefield. That was the most attractive contrast. There was no need to be restrained. She did not care about that.
Li Yun looked slightly embarrassed. He simply found a place to sit down and placed the silver spear in his hand beside him.
He asked, "Why are you here, my lord?"
Jiang Pengji said, "Naturally, I am here in the same way you are here. How can a place like Jiaoping District be difficult for me? "
Li Yun scratched his head and said shyly, "My lord is dignified and wise. The Tsing Yi Army is naturally no match for you."
Jiang Nongqin had a quiet personality. She usually listened quietly. Unless she really had an opinion, she would not speak up easily.
Therefore, she did not join the conversation.
Jiang Pengji turned her head and asked Jiang Nongqin, "How are the results of your attack on Maolin District?"
The latter was stunned for a moment. She reacted after a while and said, "The Tsing Yi Army has few guards in Maolin District. Officer Meng is experienced in battles. Mr. Xu is resourceful and resourceful. Therefore, it did not take long for us to take over Maolin District. The generals and soldiers fought bravely. Other than 20 people who were lightly injured, six were seriously injured, and eight were killed in battle, the rest of the soldiers were safe and sound … "
The six seriously injured soldiers were an accident. If they had not let their guard down, at most one would have been slightly injured.
As for the eight who died in battle, they were shot by the enemy's stray arrows at the beginning of the sneak attack on the city. They died of untreated wounds.
It was already very proud to have such an outcome in a sneak attack on the city.
Not to mention that there were many inexperienced new soldiers among them. There were also female soldiers who were purely holding them back in the eyes of others.
Of course, only the soldiers participating in the battle could judge whether or not they were holding them back. Outsiders had no right or qualification to comment.
"Take care of the injured soldiers, and let the souls of the fallen warriors return to their homeland. Have their corpses been properly disposed of?"
Although the casualties were small, they were still there. The dead could not be resurrected, but she could make up for the families of the living and the dead.
It was a form of comfort and compensation.
Jiang Nongqin secretly glanced at Liyun. His expression was natural and he was not displeased by Jiang Pengji's "cold treatment".
She calmed down and continued, "Rest assured, my lord. The corpses of the soldiers have all been collected. Those that can be buried have already been buried."
The audience in the streaming room were mostly fans of Liyun's looks or true love. The little angel was treated coldly by the streamer and was inexplicably unhappy.
Kneeling Begging for Monthly Tickets: "Hey, host, did you see our little angel Han Mei's longing eyes? Look at him."
Otherwise Will Nao: "Poor little angel, don't panic. Come to my arms, I'll give you a loving hug."
Da Da 'er Sa Po: "Is this the post-battle summary report? Our little angel Han Mei knows it too. The streamer can't favor one and discriminate against the other. "
Shenglai Mai: "Don't panic. Han Mei is not a narrow-minded person. Why would he feel wronged?"
Jiang Pengji unintentionally glanced at the bullet screen and was secretly amused. She continued to ask Nongqin about the arrangements in Maolin district and sent a bullet screen to explain so that Han Mei's fan club would not continue to lash out at her and say that she bullied their husband.
Host V: "Han Mei is the deputy captain of the Vanguard Battalion. Nongqin is the captain of the female battalion. Naturally, I can't ask about the situation without Nongqin's permission."
Jiang Pengji liked to do whatever she wanted, but it did not mean that she would let her guard down when it came to certain matters of principle.
The military camp was a place with clear hierarchy and strict discipline. Her attitude would affect their status among the soldiers.
If she treated Jiang Nongqin coldly, it would give the soldiers the misconception that she, the captain, was inferior to the deputy captain. Unintentionally, it would weaken Nongqin's prestige among the soldiers. Even if the weakening was very slight, Jiang Pengji did not want that to happen.
Alright, since the streamer had explained, the audience in the streaming room also expressed their understanding. They turned around and showered gifts. The accompanying comments were "Touch my little angel", "Little angel is not sad", "Come over and let Auntie rub you", making Jiang Pengji feel helpless.
Jiang Pengji then asked about the general situation in Maolin district. After all, it had to be rebuilt after the war … How could a place that had been ravaged by locusts like the Tsing Yi Army be prosperous? Jiang Pengji still used Xiangyang district as her base camp, but her influence had already spread to the whole of Fengyi county.
Jiang Nongqin was a careful person. She did not expect Jiang Pengji to ask her, but she had made all the necessary preparations.
Since the lord valued her, she would naturally tell her everything she knew. She did not hold back and did not leave anything out.
Jiang Pengji's brows furrowed imperceptibly.
If the financial situation of the three districts was ranked, Chengan district was the poorest, followed by Maolin district, and Jiaoping district was in the best condition.
However, the situation of population loss in the three districts was similar. It was not to say that nine out of ten houses were empty, but it was sparsely populated.
"… Forget it, rebuilding is not something that can be done in a day. Although there are fewer people, it is not a ghost town. The captives of the Tsing Yi Army can be used as labourers, which can relieve a lot of pressure. I'll ask Xiaoyu and the rest to put up notices to recruit laborers and slowly rebuild the three districts. "
There were benefits to having fewer people. Many houses and lands had become ownerless. She could use them to her heart's content to seek benefits.
The larger Jiang Pengji's territory was, the stronger her military force was. In the eyes of outsiders, her place was a paradise in a chaotic world.
When the time came, it was unknown how many people and wealthy merchants would be attracted to seek refuge.
Well, think about the houses in Xiangyang district. The prices had gone from being worthless to increasing every day.
Recently, wealthy merchants had sent their servants to inquire. The land and house deeds were all in Jiang Pengji's hands. She was still unwilling to let them go.
It was too much of a loss to sell them now. When Fengyi County was completely stabilized, these houses could only be sold at the proper price.
However, her military force was only about ten thousand people. If they were spread out and scattered across the four districts, it was really a stretch.
It was imperative to recruit soldiers and expand the military force.
During the early stages of rebuilding, it was probably the most dangerous time for Jiang Pengji's power.
The territory was too big and the military force was too scattered. If they were caught by the enemy, they might be overturned.
However, she believed that her strategists were smart people. Even if she did not send any instructions, they would know what to do during this period of time.
Facts proved that whether it was Jiaoping district's Qiguan Rang, Chengan district's Wei Ci, or Maolin district's Xu Ke, they were all great teammates.
Having just conquered the three districts, the three of them coincidentally recruited usable laborers. On the other hand, they had to think of a way to make the one thousand or two thousand troops look like ten thousand people. They had to strengthen the patrols and throw smoke bombs to confuse the possible enemies so that they would not dare to act rashly.
Xiangyang district had won two consecutive battles, which could more or less deter the enemies who coveted it.
