Yuan Jin's plan was not complicated. During this period, three squads of people from the Lengjian Camp were deployed to join the reinforcements. The remaining 400 people were divided into pieces and some sneaked into the Jin State garrison camp, and some sneaked into the city.

Once the Jin army retreats, it is necessary to climb the city. The Dashan army pursues it, and those who sneak in early can assassinate the opponent's commander and open the city gate inside to facilitate the Dashan army to seize the city.

She asked if Zhao Yingwu had arranged spies because he did not want people from the Lengjian camp to accidentally injure one of their own when they took action.

"All the people in your hands have gone out?" Zhao Yingwu's breath was stagnant, and he didn't know how to react.

Five hundred people from the garrison slipped out right under his nose, and no one noticed them.

If she hadn't brought it up on her own initiative, he would have thought about whether he could let these hundreds of people assassinate the opponent's coach when the siege started.

When the coach dies, the team is left without a leader.

"They are all out. They are a secret force. All actions cannot be known to the spies of Jin State." Yuan Jin looked calm, "If people can get information about them when they come in and out, how can they carry out secret missions."

Zhao Yingwu:......

This general can disarm and return home early.

…

The siege battle lasted all day long, and after dark the enemy troops withdrew to their main camp. The defenses were changed in Langgu Pass, and hollow iron balls filled with pepper powder and unknown medicinal powder were transported up to the tower, and clay pots used to fill water were also brought in one after another.

Transport it to another defense point.

A large pot for boiling snow water has also been prepared.

After Yuan Jin and Zhao Yingwu inspected the defenses in various places, they went to the weapons camp together to see the three-bow bed crossbow, which was just one step away from being completed.

"This thing seems to be no different from a bed crossbow?" Zhao Yingwu looked at the masters assembling the three-bow bed crossbow, thoughtfully, "The process is much more complicated."

"It's more powerful than an ordinary bed crossbow." Yuan Jin picked up the completed divine arm bow, turned around and went out, "Try this first."

Zhao Yingwu nodded slightly and went out with her.

Yuan Jin picked up the arrow and put it on the bow, stepped on the bow with his foot to fully draw the string, raised the whole bow and shot the arrow at the target not far away.

The sound of a sharp arrow piercing the air came, and the arrow penetrated the target and sank into the stone wall behind, halfway in.

"The power is so huge!" Zhao Yingwu was stunned.

If ten thousand bows can be made to defend the city, there will be no need to be afraid even if the Tatar cavalry comes.

"I'll just use it. The current power doesn't meet my requirements." Yuan Jin put away the Divine Arm Bow and turned back, "Time is too short. If the time is longer, the four archery battalions will alternately release arrows from a long distance to snipe the enemy.

Tens of thousands of troops and reinforcements are not a problem."

In order to rush the work, the master of the weapons battalion did not have the range to meet her requirements.

It was also possible that she had misremembered the height of some parts. She remembered that when she read the introduction, she said that the range of the Divine Arm Bow was about 150 meters.

In ancient times, a bow with a range of 150 meters could not be drawn by a single person. The Divine Arm Bow allowed soldiers with certain training to draw it easily and aim.

It is no different from black technology when used in canyon ambush battles and siege battles.

The three-bow bed crossbow is also equivalent to ancient black technology. It can shoot special arrows into the city wall, making it easier for soldiers to climb up.

After taking the city, she planned to improve the repeating crossbow to increase its power and lethality, and use the repeating crossbow as a machine gun.

"Where did Jin's spies get the blueprints? If soldiers from other countries were equipped with such weapons, it would be difficult to defend Dasheng's country." Zhao Yingwu looked at the divine arm bow in his daughter's hand, worried.

He could protect his daughter from internal and external troubles for a while, but he could not protect her for the rest of her life.

If the prince in the court knew that his daughter was a rare general, those people would use whatever means to imprison her in a backyard. From then on, she would be like an ordinary woman, fighting with a group of other women for the prince's favor.

.

His daughter was born in this land beyond the Great Wall, and she should be as free as an eagle beyond the Great Wall.

"Don't they have a chance to take it back?" Yuan Jin cleared his throat guiltily and said with a smile, "The drawings I gave to the weapons camp master are gone."

She used a small method of conveying information in this era, soaking the paper with concoction, and the ink marks on it would disappear after a while.

"I hope so." Zhao Yingwu's brows did not relax at all, "Ajin, daddy will definitely capture the city for you. After the victory, 60,000 soldiers will die in the battle."

Even if the country is destroyed by great prosperity, these soldiers will definitely be able to protect their daughter.

"Thank you, dad." Yuan Jin arched his eyebrows and said thanks.

She originally had a father who loved her very much. When the little girl left, she said that she could be reincarnated into a new world and hoped that she would also have a father who loved her and a family who loved her in the new world.

In this world, except for her father and mother, no one in her family likes her. Her grandmother dislikes her mother's low birth, her cousin hates her for taking the title of eldest lady, and is jealous that she has a father who is a general.

It was clear that the people being sheltered were my cousin's family, so he was just ungrateful and wanted to kill her.

"In this world, the person that Daddy worries about the most is you." Zhao Yingwu was amused by her, "What Daddy wants is for you to be safe, happy and unrestrained throughout your life."

I hope she can be like her mother, who dares to love and hate, and doesn't care what others say.

"With her father here, my daughter will live a free and unrestrained life." Yuan Jin was moved in her heart.

Zhao Yingwu is actually a daughter-in-law, which is really rare.

Returning to the construction room, the last step of the three-bow bed crossbow is completed.

Yuan Jin directed several soldiers to carry the bed crossbow outside and test the power of the bed crossbow with Zhao Yingwu.

Compared with the divine arm bow, the power of the three-bow bed crossbow is simply terrifying. The specially-made arrows directly passed through the wall and almost injured the patrolling soldiers there.

"I will send these three-bow crossbows to the tower tonight." Zhao Yingwu rubbed his hands excitedly.

With this magical weapon, they can kill the opponent's general on the city wall.

Yuan Jin smiled and agreed with his decision.

In the second half of the night, the enemy's feigned attacks stopped completely twice, and the soldiers in the pass stayed awake all night.

Yuan Jin took a nap for an hour, and when he woke up, he received news from the Lengjian Camp. He learned that they had made arrangements and were waiting with peace of mind for Jin reinforcements to arrive at the garrison camp.

Five days later.

Yuan Jin finished writing a series of policies and regulations for the city, and sent troops to report, and the enemy army attacked the city.

She put away the manuscript and hid it in her quiver, put on her helmet and called Qu Ruyun up the city wall.

"I just came back. The arrangement of the Lengjian Camp took effect, and most of the reinforcements and soldiers in the garrison camp were attacked." Qu Ruyun's eyes lit up, "The people shouting in front of the formation are obviously not as powerful as before."

After the poisonous balloons were shot out, the Jin army was shrouded in smoke and unable to move, the bow and arrow camp was covered with sword rain, and rivers of blood flowed under the city walls.

"Aren't they going to retreat?" Yuan Jin ran all the way, scanning the soldiers on guard along the road with his peripheral vision, suddenly stopped and turned around, and quickly fired the repeating crossbow in his hand.

With a "clang" sound, the soldier who was shot by the repeating crossbow fell down, and the gun in his hand fell heavily to the ground, making a crisp sound.

"He is a spy from the Jin Kingdom." Qu Ruyun quickly explained when other soldiers looked over, "Take him down and interrogate him later."

Hearing this, the other soldiers silently tied up the man and took him away.

Yuan Jin went up to the city tower, but the Jin army had retreated dozens of meters away from the moat and did not dare to approach.

There was a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood beside the moat, and the frozen river surface was a dark red.

"They were so smoked by the poisonous gas you made that they couldn't see the road. With a hail of arrows, there were many casualties." Zhao Yingwu couldn't hide the joy on his face. "They will not launch another attack today. I have ordered the spies to withdraw."

Yuan Jin nodded and looked into the distance.

The people from Lengjian camp withdrew after administering the poison. They should have successfully entered the city by now.

The Jin army's first attack failed, and they would try again a second time.

"Their general did not raid the formation today, and the few who came out to raid the formation were all killed." Zhao Yingwu continued to introduce the battle situation, "Only a thousand of our soldiers were hit by stray arrows, and they were all slightly injured."

"Young general, this magical weapon of yours is too powerful!" Several lieutenants came over from the other side, beaming, "The general who skimmed the formation was particularly good at fighting and full of tricks. He was hit by our divine crossbow and died on the spot.

"

In the past two years, every time they were attacked by surprise, it was thanks to this general that they finally avenged their shame today.

"It's not mine, I borrowed someone else's drawing." Yuan Jin's lips curved slightly, "Are they going to stop fighting?"

"We are not afraid of continuing to die if we don't stop fighting." The military advisor looked at the arrows and the horses still standing with eyes burning, "Wait until they retreat far away, and then order people to clean up the battlefield."

Everyone agreed to do this.

Around Shen Shi, the enemy troops withdrew from the attack range. The soldiers responsible for cleaning the battlefield went out from the side door, picked up weapons such as arrows and knives, and brought back their horses to pick up other valuable things.

The bodies of the dead Jinguo soldiers were dug into pits far away and burned.

On the second day, the Jin army did not come to attack Langgu Pass, and the defenses in various parts of the pass were upgraded. The stones were filled with pepper powder and other medicinal powders. Iron balls that would emit choking poisonous smoke when ignited were transported to the city wall.

.

Five days later, the Jin army launched another attack.

This time, they came with great force, and the general still didn't show up.

Yuan Jin hid behind the wall and observed for a moment, fully drew the divine arm bow in his hand, aimed at a man wearing an ordinary soldier's uniform among the enemy soldiers, and fired the arrow neatly.

The battle has not yet come to a standstill, and the enemy soldiers are rushing forward like a tide, as if they have no souls.

Could it be that he made a mistake in his judgment? Yuan Jin observed for a moment and fired the arrow again.

This time they fought for six days and six nights. Both sides were exhausted and their arrows were almost exhausted.

Yuan Jin received the news from the soldiers of Lengjian Camp and learned that the general had been killed, so he immediately informed Zhao Yingwu of the news.

The person she shot that day was indeed the general!

"Your general has been killed, your general has been killed, your general has been killed!" Zhao Yingwu stood on the city wall, shouting loudly with a loudspeaker modified from cow horns.

The Jin army below paused for a moment and then began to retreat in all directions.

"Their strength is now less than 50,000, of which more than 10,000 are wounded, and we have lost 4,000 soldiers." Yuan Jin looked up at the sky, "The opportunity must not be missed before it comes again."

This would be Chenshi, and it was four and a half hours' ride from Lenggu Pass to the city. It was dark when the cavalry arrived at the city.

During this battle, almost all the guards who climbed onto the city went to the battlefield, leaving less than 3,000 people to defend the city.

The soldiers of the Lengjian Battalion who infiltrated in advance have replaced more than 300 of the opponent's troops. Upon receiving the signal, they will open the city gate and let Dasheng's soldiers enter the city.

Zhao Yingwu understood what she meant and ordered the city gates to be opened to pursue the enemy.

Twenty thousand troops were left to garrison the city.

Song Yunce and Shen Rang contacted the soldiers who had been trained to transport grain and salt to secretly intercept the news and prevent it from spreading out of the camp and out of Xingcheng.

Two days later, the Jin army was defeated and withdrew, ascending to the city to recapture it.

More than 50,000 soldiers of the Jin Kingdom stationed at the Lengguguan camp were "killed" and stayed in the city.

Yuan Jin left Qu Ruyun in charge of post-war resettlement and cleaning work, followed Zhao Yingwu back to Lenggu Pass, announced that the soldiers had died in battle and failed to recapture the city, and took away Song Yunce and Shen Rang.

"Dengcheng will be our base from now on. I need your help in formulating and implementing many policies." A comfortable smile appeared on Yuan Jin's face, "In two years, I want all ten cities in the North to obey my orders."

"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely implement all policies in place." Song Yunce looked at her profile, the corners of his lips rising unconsciously.

This battle lasted for more than a month, and this was the first time she felt so relaxed.

"What policy does sister want to enact?" Shen Rang was full of curiosity.

He knew that the emperor would promulgate some policies, and it was the first time he met a person without an official position who could promulgate policies.

But this person is Ajie, so it doesn’t seem strange at all.

"You will know when you enter the city." Yuan Jin gave up, "Let's go. Construction of this road will start when the snow melts after the year. It will be as smooth as the road from Xingcheng to Lengguguan."

Shen asked Yang to spur his horse and pass them by. He turned back proudly and said, "Let's see who gets there first."

Yuan Jin smiled and rode after him.

Once you reach the city, everything is in ruins waiting to be renovated.

The first thing Yuan Jin did when he entered the county government was to issue an announcement that wealthy landowners in the city must hand over all their land deeds and the money could be kept.

In order to survive, the wealthy households and landowners in the city surrendered all their land deeds.

After reading it, Yuan Jin asked Song Yunce to record it in the book, and took his people to spend a few days to measure the land outside the city and start counting the population.

The army of Jin State was defeated. The relatively wealthy families gathered up their gold, silver and valuables and left with their families, leaving behind only slaves.

The city that originally had a population of about 50,000 people was left with only the old, weak, women, children and poor people who could not leave, totaling less than 20,000 people.

After the census was completed, Yuan Jin divided the 50,000 soldiers into groups, re-created the military register and arranged for city defense and patrol. Houses and fields will be divided after spring. Candidates for senior general positions in the army need to be carefully selected, which will also be arranged after the whole city is reorganized.

.

After all this work was done, it was already the twelfth lunar month.

There is no need to fight and there is time to rest. The true nature of the soldiers is exposed and they often go out to have fun.

Yuan Jin severely punished the leaders, imposed military discipline on them, and ordered all brothels in the city to be banned.

The people who owned the brothel were dissatisfied and rushed to the county government office to cause trouble.

Qu Ruyun didn't wait for Yuan Jin's order and killed several mothers at the gate of the county government office. He looked at the people watching with a frosty face, "It's not your daughter, you don't feel bad, right?"

The people who were watching didn't dare to say anything. Several men who often went to brothels to have fun couldn't help but yelled when they saw that Qu Ruyun was just a little girl. "Why did she ban the brothel? This is a legal business, and there is no

It's bothering her."

"Just because I am the lord of Dengcheng, I think this business is not legal, it is not legal." Yuan Jin looked sullen, "Thinking that there is a brothel here, people who want to sell their daughters don't have to think about it in the future. From now on.

It is forbidden to sell people in the city, cancel the noble, good, humble and slave status, everyone is equal. After the beginning of spring, everyone who has applied for an identity card at the government office can be allocated land for farming."

The crowd was quiet for a moment, and everyone looked at Yuan Jin in disbelief, "Everyone has one?"

"Everyone has one." Yuan Jin's face was condensed, "In addition to the identity card, the same household also has a household registration card. If someone is found to be selling their children privately, both the buyer and the seller are equally guilty."

"Can we also have our own fields for farming?"

"Are actors and prostitutes no longer low-class?"

"If I don't have a lowly status, can I study and take exams?"

The crowd became noisy, and everyone looked at Yuan Jin, hoping that she would nod again.

"Tomorrow the government will issue an announcement. The specific policies will be written on the announcement." Yuan Jin turned his head and looked at Qu Ruyun and ordered, "Take these corpses outside the city and burn them."

Qu Ruyun took the order and took the soldiers of Lengjian Battalion to transport the body away.

The news that the Lord of Dengcheng was allocating fields to the people spread throughout the city as if it had wings. None of the spies of the Jin Kingdom who were still in the city spread the news.

According to the laws and policies written by Yuan Jin, Song Yunce polished them with the expressions of this world and posted them everywhere in the city.

While doing these things, he selected twenty shops in the city and arranged for the girls who had nowhere to go after leaving the brothel to take charge of running them.

If they are literate and can count, arrange for them to organize the account books.

Five hundred soldiers from the Lengjian Battalion dealt with the heavy blows. The number of people who climbed to the city to cause trouble gradually decreased, and shops on the streets opened one after another. The settled soldiers were not idle either. After being reorganized by Yuan Jin, some were responsible for guarding the city, and some were responsible for guarding the city.

Help repair damaged buildings.

Yuan Jin made a new planning map based on the local topography. It included the city's sewage ditches and sewage sedimentation treatment tanks, and reserved locations for barracks construction and land for building housing for the new population.

After finishing this work, she drew another drawing of the divine arm bow and divided the drawing into several small parts. From the list given by Song Yunce, she selected soldiers who were good at carpentry, blacksmithing, and bow making, and formed a company to be responsible for making the divine arm bow.

Arm bow.

The soldiers in charge of each part didn't know what they were doing, and the final combination was completed by the soldiers of Lengjian Battalion.

In addition, she adjusted the size and pulling power of the repeating crossbow, made drawings and found several carpenters and blacksmiths to work with her on the improvements.

I was busy until three days before New Year's Eve when I received a letter from Lengguguan saying that Zhao Yingwu, his military advisor and his master would come here to spend New Year's Eve.

Yuan Jin just wanted to take over the master and teach the girls who came out of the brothel to learn medicine. He happily replied to the letter.

In order to show her sincerity, she handed over the chores in the government office to Song Yunce and Shen Rang, and then took Qu Ruyun to go shopping for new year's goods.

Lian Xin is still guarding Xingcheng to ensure the smooth flow of information. Xingcheng Yamen will add departments in the next year, and this place will serve as an experimental base for trial and error, so there is no rush to let her come over.

"Sister, will this be our home from now on?" Qu Ruyun felt like she was dreaming.

Half a year ago, she was just a plaything that was kidnapped by scoundrels on the mountain. Now she is the right-hand assistant next to my sister. Anyone who sees her will call her Lieutenant Qu, and no one will think that she is a woman. She is not good at it.

"I'm going to stay for a few years, and I'll have to leave later." Yuan Jin raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Don't be happy, you'll be so busy that you cry after the new year."

Qu Ruyun:......

If you stay by my sister's side, she won't cry, she will only laugh.

"I heard that the city lord arranged for those prostitutes to go to the county government, and even gave them ID badges. They don't mind being dirty." came the disdainful voice of a woman in front of the jewelry stall.

Qu Ruyun blushed with anger when she heard this.

Yuan Jin stopped her and signaled her to listen quietly and not to disturb them.

"I looked at the city lord as being very whimsical. Everyone is equal. Who does she think she is?"

"It's not her who has the final say on who owns the city. She's just a wild girl who ran away from nowhere. It's a joke that she can achieve anything. If you haven't seen the people who have studied in the city, no one is willing to work in the yamen."

"I heard that the Yamen has created many new positions, including taxation, public security, law, agriculture, animal husbandry, forestry, health, etc. Neither Dasheng nor Jin had these positions, right?"

"I think she must be extremely ugly to compete with men for power."

"I heard that she hasn't said goodbye to her since she was eighteen, so I guess she's really not good-looking."

"She wants to take away the land deed and distribute it to the poor and untouchables. She also wants to cancel the slave status and prohibit the sale and purchase of children. I have been used to being taken care of since I was a child. I don't know what to do in the future."

"This salt-free girl is really disgusting."

"It's more than disgusting. She will be killed sooner or later. We are living a good life. Who cares if she comes to do this?"

When Yuan Jin heard this, he frowned and said quietly, "Are you talking about me?"

Several girls wearing silk and satin turned around and froze in place as if struck by lightning.

The girl in front of her is wearing a snow-white fox fur cloak, her eyebrows are as dark as a distant mountain, her nose is as white as snow, and her skin is as beautiful as a peach or plum.

Is this a fairy from heaven?

"I am the whimsical city lord you call me." Yuan Jin curled his lips, "I have heard all your accusations, and they are very good."

Several girls were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they did not dare to look at her anymore.

Yuan Jin had no interest in teaching them a lesson, and took Qu Ruyun away after saying that.

"Sister, why don't you punish them? It's... it's so irritating." Qu Ruyun pursed her lips in frustration.

"They are right, why should they be punished?" Yuan Jin laughed, "Ruyun, you have suffered so much that you think you will have a bright future by following me. They have been spoiled since they were young, and if their peaceful life is broken, they will naturally blame me."

"Is that so?" Qu Ruyun still felt aggrieved.

"If you think about it carefully, if you were not kidnapped into the mountains, and someone suddenly came and forced your father to hand over the land deed and not allow him to buy people's teeth and come back to work. You must do everything at home by yourself, and you have to pay wages when hiring people. What would you do?

Won't you blame me?" Yuan Jin looked at her funny and said, "answer me after you think about it clearly."

Qu Ruyun thought about it carefully and nodded lightly.

"So, they are right to blame me." Yuan Jin patted her shoulder without stopping.

The education they received was that people are classified into high and low status, and people with low status are goods and can be bought and sold at will.

Suddenly losing the innate sense of superiority, this gap will inevitably turn into resentment.

She didn't want to save anyone, she just didn't want to be judged when she went out in the future, and she didn't want to be locked up in a house and raised as a pet.

With her ability, she can realize this idea and live the life she wants. But for fifty long years, she will feel uncomfortable if she doesn't do something.

Before she died, who was she that she had never thought of being a salted fish?

Yuan Jin waved away the inexplicable thoughts and shook his head in amusement secretly.

One day, she can find herself again.

After buying some New Year's goods, the two stopped by to see the pastry shop that Song Yunce had arranged for the girls to run.

The shop's business didn't seem to be doing well, and some of the men outside behaved in a vulgar manner, which looked like they deserved a beating.

When we arrived, the leading man laughed and joked, "I'll buy the pastries, and I also want to buy my sister's body."

"Buy me!" Qu Ruyun kicked him out and was still angry. She stepped on the ground and prevented him from moving. "If your sister was sold into a brothel, how could you still say such stupid things?

What!"

Yuan Jin walked into the store, leaned against the door and looked at the girl wiping tears, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

All the girls who left the brothel had seen her and knew that she was the Lord of Dengcheng.
