Yu Qingling led the royal army on a day and night march, and a week later reached the town of Luoshui, which was small but economically developed, next to the besieged city of Water.

Because it is located at the junction of the Protoss and the Yu Clan, the merchants of the Protoss like to come to Luoshui to do business and sell some new things that the Feather Clan does not have, and the people of Luoshui Town are also very novel, and they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy, and the people of Luoshui Town will also sell some of the things of the Feather Clan to the Protoss merchants, and the merchants of the Protoss will bring back the Protoss to sell, and there will be a great repercussion.

Over time, Luoshui has formed its own unique economic system. This economic system has made Luoshui Town richer and more prosperous.

All the way, the royal army who slept in the open food and camp saw this lively, prosperous and wealthy town, and their eyes lit up.

The soldiers of each team looked east and west, and they did not look like one of the strongest legions of the Yu clan at all.

Yu Qingling was considerate of them, they had been traveling in the forest for a week, eating the simplest food, and seeing the endless woods. Suddenly seeing such a prosperous town, seeing something other than brown roots and green leaves, even she couldn't help but sigh at the prosperity here. Do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself, this is what Yu Qingling has always believed.

The soldiers and officers of the royal army have always admired Yu Qingling very much, trusted him very much, and were willing to die for Yu Qingling, more than half of the reason was because of Yu Qingling's benevolent and righteous army policy.

200,000 soldiers and horses walked on the crowded road, attracting the residents of Luoshui Town to stop and watch. Luoshui Town has always been peaceful, and he has never seen an army, let alone such a large army. The residents of Luoshui Town had a different look on their faces.

Several of the women muttered something quietly, their faces becoming more and more nervous. A few boys huddled in a heap to touch the soldiers' hard armor and shiny weapons, only to be pulled back by their parents. There were also a few old men who pulled the collar of the person next to him very exaggeratedly, and said in a frightened tone: "It's not good, it's not good, our Luoshui Town is going to die."

Yu Qingling saw it in her eyes, and couldn't help but laugh in her heart, feeling that this group of people was too uninformed, but soon she realized that it was wrong for her to think so, although these residents had not participated in the war, but they were a strong backup for the army, and it was they who tightened their belts to save food for the army, and made weapons for them, so that the sons and daughters on the battlefield had no worries.

Thinking of this, Yu Qingling remembered what her mother had said when she taught her the art of war. "In war, people of any status are an indispensable part, and we have to respect people of any status." When she had never been on the battlefield, Yu Qingling didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, she thought that those helpless people not only could not go into battle to kill the enemy, but also had to spend their own forces to protect them, which was very troublesome.

But when she really went to the battlefield and experienced it for herself, she understood how important the support force of those people was! Without them, the soldiers would not have the strength to fight, and they would not have sharp weapons. How can such an army slash and kill the enemy?

Yu Qingling's thoughts drifted back to the battle when she was thirteen years old and led the royal army to defend Xihe. At that time, tens of thousands of royal troops were besieged in Xihe City, and it was the local Yu people who left everything they could eat to Yu Qingling's royal army, Yu Qingling didn't dare to think that if there were no hungry and skinny Yu people to contribute their last rations, she and her royal army would have great losses and dangers. She wasn't sure if she would be able to win the battle against Heehe.

A knock on the door pulled Yu Qingling's thoughts back.

"Your Highness, the four legions of the Royal Army have all been encamped and rested." Xuanyu made a military salute and reported.

"Okay, the march is hard, let them rest for a few days to prepare for battle"

"Your Highness, the mayor of Luoshui Town wants to see you, do you want to see you?"

"What's going on?" Yu Qingling frowned, Yu Qingling didn't like to socialize the most, and usually asked Xuanyu, the deputy general of the royal army, to go for him. I'm also used to preaching, and every time I come to myself after participating in the party, I come to report some relatively useful things. But Xuanyu is unusual, first report to her, what is the matter with this mayor of Luoshui Town? She was a little curious. Raise your head and listen carefully to the thin but heroic girl in front of you.

"Your Highness, Mayor Chen wants to invite you to one of his mansions to discuss some things, and Mayor Chen also said that he didn't dare to let others go to disturb His Highness's purity this time, so you are the only one who goes. He felt that this matter was important, and he didn't dare to decide for His Highness, so he came to report. ”

Yu Qingling shook her head and said: "This county magistrate Chen is not an ordinary person, every sentence is sincere, every sentence is for my sake, I have no reason not to go."

"Your Highness doesn't need to be reluctant, it's just a town mayor."

Yu Qingling shook her head at Xuanyu, and said: "There is no distinction between high and low, even a farmer can sometimes control the fate of a million-strong division." After a pause, he said: "You have not experienced the harsh war, and you can only truly feel the meaning of this sentence when you have experienced it yourself." Maybe soon......" said Yu Qingling and looked up at the gloomy sky outside the window, "It's going to rain." ”

Xuanyu is looking forward to the arrival of the war, she is a nobleman of the Yu clan, because of her excellent results, she was assigned to the royal army, the royal army symbolizes meritorious service in the Yu clan, outstanding merits, and the soldiers of the royal army in the Yu clan will attract a burst of admiration even if they walk sideways.

Not long after entering the royal army, she was appreciated by Yu Qingling and became the deputy general of the royal army, although she was not a big official who could command the legion, she could indeed report directly to the supreme commander by bypassing her superiors. She has been in the company for a short time and has never experienced the battlefield, and she often listens to the elders of her family talk about the passion of the battlefield. I have long been envious. She is looking forward to this battle.

Yu Qingling was invited by Mayor Chen to go to the banquet, she put on a veil, and as soon as she stepped out of the gate of the headquarters, a person dressed as a groom greeted her with a smile and said: "You are Mayor Chen's honored guest, the villain has been waiting here for a long time, please get into the carriage!"

Yu Qingling sighed at Mayor Chen's thoughtfulness, and was a little curious about what kind of person Mayor Chen was.

Yu Qingling sat in the carriage, the carriage was very comfortable, it was not bumpy on the road, Yu Qingling poked her head out to look at the bustling street, and there was a burst of amazement, the prosperity of Luoshui Town is afraid that compared with Yudu, I don't want to go up and down, if the Yu clan and the god clan can fully trade, its profits are unimaginable.

After passing a few streets, the carriage stopped, and what greeted me was a picturesque mansion, surrounded by bamboo trees on all sides, with the fragrance of flowers and birds, which was very elegant, and it could be seen that the owner of this place must not be a layman.

The carriage stopped, and immediately several maids lined up in a row, and the two maids in front helped Yu Qingling out of the carriage, Yu Qingling felt very uncomfortable, she had been sleeping in the barracks since she was a child, and she was used to living a life of doing things alone, and she didn't like so many people around. Instinctively, she bypassed the maids and walked to the door of the mansion to see an older man with a gentle smile that made people feel amiable.

Seeing the comer, the man immediately knelt down and saluted. Yu Qingling said lightly: "No need to be polite." The man smiled: "I sent all the maids in the palace to greet His Highness, but I didn't expect His Highness to find it cumbersome." Yu Qingling didn't answer his words and looked at him quietly. The man didn't feel embarrassed by Yu Qingling's coldness, but smiled heartily: "Your Highness, please come in with Weichen." The man led Yu Qingling to walk inside, there were several small pools along the way, there were many fish in the pools, swimming and frolicking under the lotus leaves. This scenery reminds Yu Qingling of the hundred gardens of the Yudu Palace, and it is also the same scenery, which makes people feel happy.

The man walked beside Yu Qingling and said, "Your Highness, we, Mayor Chen, are waiting for you in the living room." Yu Qingling was a little surprised: "You're not Mayor Chen?" The man smiled: "How can Your Highness think that I am Mayor Chen, my name is Zuo Yan, I used to work in the Yudu Supervision Yuan, and now I am old and return to my hometown thanks to Mayor Chen for not giving up on letting me manage some town affairs."

"I see, the people of the Supervision Yuan are a little condescending to this town." Yu Qingling nodded and thought: I originally retired from the Yudu Inspectorate, and I heard that everyone in the Inspectorate is talented.

When she arrived at the living room, Yu Qingling finally saw the legendary Mayor Chen, but she was disappointed, the elegant and noble temperament in her imagination did not exist at all.

Yu Qingling's first impression of him was very bad, but he also knew that people should not be good-looking, so he patiently sat on the main seat and listened to Mayor Chen speak in a thick dialect. Yu Qingling could only understand a few words, and she was very impatient, but she still pressed her temper and continued to listen.

Zuo Yan saw that something was wrong with Yu Qingling, and quietly walked behind Yu Qingling, translating every sentence Chen Xianling said to Yu Qingling. This averted an embarrassment.

With Zuo Yan's translation, although Yu Qingling understood, what Mayor Chen said was all nonsense, what was for world peace, what was for the prosperity of the Yu family, and what was for the people......

Yu Qingling was bored by listening, so she simply stopped listening and began to think about this battle. Yu Qingling was fascinated until Mayor Chen finished speaking, waiting for Yu Qingling to give him a big compliment, it was a cheat sheet made by Zuo Yan for him, and he memorized it all night! But Yu Qingling has been indifferent. Zuo Yan shouted His Royal Highness Ling before pulling Yu Qingling back from his thoughts.

"Finished? That's right, Mayor Chen, it would be good if you could take some practical actions for world peace, such as handing over all your property to our royal army, which can be regarded as a contribution to the Yu military, and when you die, we will give you a nickname to make your reputation spread through the ages. ”

After Yu Qingling said these words, Zuo Yan, who was standing next to her, almost laughed. Mayor Chen still doesn't know what to say. He quietly called Zuo Yan to his side and asked him: "Zuo Yan, what does Your Highness mean by this, do you want to name me?" Zuo Yan really couldn't help laughing out loud this time: "Elder Town, Your Highness said that if you donate all your money to the Royal Army, Your Highness can consider giving you a name." Mayor Chen shook his head again and again: "I am not stupid to exchange money for a name, I don't want it!" Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness. ”

Yu Qingling also laughed when she heard this, waved her hand and said, "Since Mayor Chen has finished speaking, then I should also leave, Lord Zuo Yan should come with me."

"Yes, Your Highness."
