"What? Promise?"
Lian'er's beautiful eyes filled with tears slightly, for fear that her son would be in danger on the battlefield.
"That's right, I made an agreement with Feiyu that if he captures the Xiongnu, I will give him a big reward. If he fails to capture the Huns, let me make any conditions I want. No matter what, he will agree to it!"
"How easy is it to take down the Huns?"
Although Lian'er is just a female prostitute, she is also well aware of the atrocities committed by the Huns, as well as Ying Zheng's helplessness towards the Huns.
Sometimes Ying Zheng talks in his sleep in the middle of the night, all because he wants to kill the Xiongnu Chanyu!
"It was indeed not easy in the past, but now that I have the artillery researched by Feiyu, I feel that my confidence has greatly increased. Even if it fails, with the protection of artillery, we will not lose many troops!"
If it weren't for the artillery, he would not have dared to hand over military power to this boy rashly.
"But...can Feiyu really win the battle?"
It's not that she doesn't believe her son, but she is really worried.
Worry about the blindness of the sword on the battlefield, worry about the consequences of failure!
"You can rest assured. Victory or defeat is a normal matter for military officers. Since I agreed to send Feiyu there, I am also prepared for defeat. Even if it fails, I will only let Feiyu study hard in the palace. I will never It will embarrass him!”
Understanding what Lian'er was worried about, Ying Zheng directly stopped her.
But he didn’t say anything about attacking Xiao Zhengtai’s industries!
"Brother Zheng, how many troops do you plan to send to Feiyu?"
After hearing this, Lian'er felt a little relieved.
At the very least, even if the army is defeated, my son's life will be safe!
"I plan to let him lead 100,000 troops to join the Meng family army in Shangjun, and send 300,000 troops to go to the Xiongnu!"
This is Ying Zheng's initial plan, but the final details still need to be discussed in detail.
A total of 300,000 troops were stationed in Shangjun, but they could not go out in full force. Some of them had to be left to guard the border. Therefore, he planned to mobilize 100,000 troops in Xianyang and 200,000 troops in Shangjun, leaving 100,000 to garrison!
"Feiyu is naughty, but he never does anything he is unsure of. Maybe he is confident in this battle!"
Seeing that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, Lian'er said seriously.
"Well, I also hope that Feiyu can win this battle and solve the Xiongnu's serious problem...!"
Ying Zheng nodded, waved his hands nonchalantly and said, "As long as Feiyu can defeat the Xiongnu, I will definitely give him a big reward!"
Compared with the huge territory of the Xiongnu, except for the position of emperor, everything else is trivial!
"When Your Majesty appointed Feiyu as commander-in-chief, did you discuss it with the prime minister and others?"
Lian'er's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly and asked in confusion.
"I have discussed it with several important ministers, and everyone has no objection. Tomorrow I will announce it in public in the court. If Li Si disagrees, let him recommend a general to me who can guarantee the victory of the Huns!"
When Li Si was mentioned, Ying Zheng immediately stopped smiling.
He made Xiaozhengtai the commander-in-chief, not just for fun, but because he knew the best about artillery and had a flexible mind. He also fought beautifully in the battle of Lingnan. In addition, the little guy promised that he could take down the Huns, so he made him the commander-in-chief. Be the commander in chief!
Except for this kid, it is estimated that no one in the civil and military circles of the dynasty dared to give a guarantee. Everyone had to shrink their necks for fear of taking responsibility!
Even if there are a few bloody generals who are willing to guarantee the victory, if he loses, can he pay hundreds of thousands of gold to compensate himself?
…
"Little Short Legs, I have a lot of things to do at the newspaper office. If you have anything to say, you can't go to the newspaper office and tell me. Do you have to call me over?"
After passing the message, Wang Wan went to the other courtyard in a good mood.
She hadn't seen that boy for some days, and she felt like something was missing in her heart.
It happened that the boy sent someone to look for him, so she put down what she was doing and ran over.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to the yard, he saw Yu Ji massaging the little shot. The key is that the boy looked like he was enjoying it.
She suddenly became angry and her good mood completely disappeared!
"Sister Wan'er!"
After more than half a year, Yu Ji has become accustomed to giving massages to Little Shota, and occasionally being treated badly, and she doesn't think there's anything wrong with her.
Unexpectedly, these are so dazzling in Wang Wan's eyes!
"Sister Yu Ji, this guy is not a good person, you'd better be careful!"
Wang Wan rolled her eyes at Ying Feiyu's face that looked like a Korean young lady, and said angrily.
"Why isn't this young master a good person?"
The young lady opened her lazy eyelids, stretched her waist widely, and had a wicked smile on her face.
"Hmph! Just tell me if you have anything to do. If nothing happens, I'll leave!"
Wang Wan wore a neat skirt and shirt, holding her hands on her chest, which showed her heroic spirit even more.
"Of course there is something...!"
Xiao Zhengtai took out a stack of paper and handed it to Wang Wan, "This is the follow-up manuscript of Journey to the West. One article per day is enough to publish it for more than two months. Then you can hand it directly to Chen Ping. In terms of advertising, we will still follow the rules At the previous price, all income will be deposited in the newspaper office for the time being. If the newspaper office needs money, it can be withdrawn directly after it is deposited into the account, and there is no need to ask me about it!"
Wang Wan subconsciously took the manuscript, blinked her big black eyes, and asked doubtfully, "Little Short Legs, you suddenly gave me these and told me so much, could it be that...you want to leave?"
"That's right, I'm about to go out to conquer the Huns. I won't come back until I capture the Huns. I estimate it will take at least two or three months. If I haven't returned victoriously after the manuscript is passed on, then stop updating it first!"
Koshota pointed at the manuscript in her hand and said.
According to his plan, it would take more than a month to go back and forth, and another month to attack the Xiongnu. He estimated that three months would be about the same!
Even if the update is interrupted, it will not last for a few days!
"Two or three months?"
Wang Wan whispered to herself, her mind was in a mess, she didn't know what she was thinking.
"In addition, the newspaper branch will continue to be opened. The selection of reporters will be decided by you and Chen Ping. The funds will come from the daily income of the newspaper. During my absence, the newspaper must operate normally!"
"Also, let Chen Ping select two outstanding reporters for me. I will take them away!"
Xiao Zhengtai gave a lot of instructions at once, but Wang Wan was always in a dazed state. It was the last words that made her raise her head slightly.
"When you go to the battlefield...you need to bring reporters with you?"
"Yes, this is called a war reporter. They specialize in recording wars. They write down the daily battle conditions, tactics used, and battle results into manuscripts, send them to newspaper offices, and print them into newspapers, so that the people can see the progress of the war and feel it. The cruelty of war makes us cherish a comfortable life even more!"
Xiao Zhengtai explained briefly.
When the two countries are at war, the people are most concerned about it. Regardless of victory or defeat, the people should be informed!
"Is it possible for both men and women?"
Wang Wan blurted out without thinking.
In all Xiaozhengtai's industries, as long as he feels he is qualified for the job, he will accept it regardless of gender, without any gender discrimination!
Especially in the journalist field, as long as you are literate and can dig up big news, you can become a reporter and get a salary!
So there are many female reporters in newspapers!
"That's right, but it's better to be a male reporter. After all, you have to personally participate in the war, and bloodshed is unavoidable. Besides, the soldiers are all big men. It's very inconvenient for a female reporter to follow the army!"
