Pei Yuanzhen:......

He does know how to do it. He has lived a hard life and still has the necessary life skills.

Even though he knew in his heart that Muning had suffered a lot while living among the people, he was still willing to take all the housework on himself.

With this arrangement, the two of them lived like an ordinary couple.

During the day, the two of them would go to the city on the pretext of going out to find some work to make a living. Once in the city, they would change their clothes and recruit soldiers according to their previous plan.

The people here are still very simple. When they heard that there was money for conscription, they were so poor that they almost didn't have enough to eat, so they naturally participated enthusiastically.

In just one month, they had already recruited 100,000 soldiers, but Muning remembered that Yan State had 500,000 soldiers attacking the border.

Including the garrison here, there are only 200,000 of them at best. Moreover, the people of Yan State grew up on the grasslands and are brave and good at fighting. The people here have not been trained and are just a bunch of showmen. No matter how you look at them, they are not enough.

However, all the young adults who can participate have already participated, and there is no one available for them.

Just when everyone was at a loss what to do, Muning raised a question: "Why not recruit female soldiers?"

When she said this, everyone was stunned.

There is no such thing as recruiting female soldiers in their consciousness.

Marching and fighting should be done by men, so why should women be involved? Isn’t it enough for them to support their husbands and raise their children?

Muning said: "Women are not any worse than men. Everyone here is hard-working and capable. Women can also go out to earn money to support the family. Men can serve as soldiers, so of course women can. If they are excluded, then

That’s why we lost a large part of our troops.”

Pei Yuanzhen looked at Muning quietly. For some reason, he suddenly understood what Muning meant.

He was silent for a few seconds and nodded: "Then let's recruit female soldiers."

The people below wanted to say something, but as soon as they saw the two masters, they had already made up their minds. If they said anything they shouldn't say, they would be executed by the Art of War.

If you have to take the risk of offending the two masters and say something that won't make them sway in any way, that's what only a fool would do.

So they shut up and started recruiting female soldiers according to the orders of these two masters.

When it was mentioned that female soldiers would be recruited, even the people here were shocked.

They have never thought that one day women can serve as soldiers.

The conditions proposed by Muning are very favorable. If women serve as soldiers, not only will they receive the same amount of money as men, but their children will also be able to eat and have three meals in the barracks.

As long as they follow the training, that's fine.

This makes many women who are almost out of food excited.

Since they can take care of the food and receive money at the same time, wouldn't they just go to the barracks for training? They suffer a lot on weekdays.

So people slowly started to sign up.

The bold ones signed up, but the timid ones watched the people around them go to the barracks one by one, and the children they led also ate white rice. It would be strange not to follow suit.

It didn't take long before the number of women signing up equaled that of men.

There were 100,000 more recruits.

Their organization was in full swing, and everything was on the right track. Finally, some people couldn't sit still.

It didn't take long for officials from the station to come to visit. Their only purpose was to stop Muning from recruiting female soldiers.

This is really against etiquette. If this matter gets out, where will their faces be? It’s as if their men are not responsible!

If it was a serious matter, why would women be allowed to go out to fight in the army?

When recruiting male soldiers, the officials did not say anything. In fact, they did not dare to say anything.

The people Pei Yuanzhen brought were all worth one for a hundred, and there were many of his subordinates among these officials, so they couldn't stop him even if they wanted to.

Moreover, when this group of people saw that Muning personally organized the conscription, they also murmured in their hearts that Muning was not an ordinary person.

After everyone thought about it, they really thought that this was a secret order given by the emperor to his daughter, asking her to train here.

The more they thought about it, the more they realized that this was what happened.

Muning is the emperor's daughter and the only biological daughter. Will she rebel? Definitely not.

Then she conscripted troops, and everyone hinted that it was the emperor's intention. What if they wanted to get to the bottom of it and cause trouble for themselves?

If the princess comes with a special order and they do something they shouldn't do, will they be reported to the police by the princess, scolded by the emperor or even demoted? Thinking of this possibility, everyone immediately tightened their belts and lived their lives. Who knows?

Dare to say a word no.

We are all smart people, so we just turned a blind eye, and the two parties reached a consensus.

Each of these people shrunk like quails, not wanting to be the first to do so, so Muning's affairs became smoother and smoother.

However, their consensus broke down when Muning wanted to recruit female soldiers. In their eyes, women should support their husbands and raise their children, abide by female virtues, and live a good life at home. How could they go out to show their faces and fight on the battlefield?

So a group of people gathered together and came to find Muning. Facing these people, Muning didn't even see them. She didn't even care and continued to go to the military camp.

She had enough money, the blessing of her status, and Pei Yuanzhen to assist her, so she was like a fish in water in this military camp.

When the officials came back, Mu Ning disappeared, which made them feel annoyed. What happened to the princess? She didn't give them any face. After all, they were officials personally appointed by the emperor!

Just when everyone was about to explode, Muning suddenly saw them.

Muning took out an imperial edict without saying anything.

She did not show them the specific content of the imperial edict, but said earnestly: "This is not the imperial edict that you are going to accept. If you read it, you will only be beheaded. You know my purpose of bringing it out better than anyone else. What I have been doing recently

The matter must have been supported by my father. If you still want to confront me, then just come. When the matter is settled, I will report everything to my father clearly when I go back."

Seeing the bright yellow imperial edict, the backs of many officials were wet with cold sweat.

This is a real imperial decree. They dare to question the meaning of the imperial decree. Isn't this just putting their heads in front of the emperor?

A group of people didn't dare to say anything more, and said in a flattering manner that they didn't have any objections. They just wanted to ask Muning if there was anything he needed help with. If so, just arrange it for them and they would definitely take care of it.

Seeing that they were so aware of current affairs, Muning gave them a few warnings, handled them gently, and let them go.

Coming out of there, everyone had an expression on their faces as if they were surviving a disaster.

Later, when some people questioned that women could not serve as soldiers, these officials would take the lead in defending it. The support of local officials made the trend of women serving as soldiers even more popular.
