The Poisonous Wife: Cute Baby Comes to Rebirth with Me

"You should tell Master, what clever plan do you have?" Nan Xuan asked.

Yun Xi nodded slightly, with a solemn expression: "In a week, the Lingnan area will experience continuous heavy rains, which will trigger flash floods. The water level will rise, the dams will be unbearable, strong winds will rage, and many houses in the city will be destroyed. What's even more frightening is that the heavy rains will After that, there will be hail and heavy snowstorms that are rare in a century. This is a natural disaster! The King of Lingnan will definitely mobilize most of his troops to deal with this natural disaster. The people will definitely regard this as God’s punishment for the rebellious heart of the King of Lingnan.”

After hearing this, Nan Xuan couldn't help but frown: "How do you know this? Isn't the heavy rain and snow a child's play?"

Yun Xi took a deep breath and said in a low and firm voice: "To be honest, I once received guidance from an expert. In addition, I have arranged for two dogs to spread the news in the city and secretly persuade the people on the riverside to evacuate in advance."

Nan Xuan looked puzzled: "How can the common people believe it so easily?"

Yun Xi smiled faintly: "It's hard to violate destiny, just let it be."

In fact, Yun Xi had other plans in mind. In the previous life, this natural disaster was used by Lingnan King Dongfang Yuqing. He used the name of the natural disaster to claim that it was a punishment from the court, thereby inciting the people to support his rebellion. But this time, Yun Xi decided to take the lead and connect the natural disaster with the ambition of the King of Lingnan to calm the people's doubts.

Nan Xuan seemed to realize something, and asked again: "Then you asked Liao Quangui to transport grain and grass, but you asked the soldiers to bring their own rations. What is the meaning of this?"

Yun Xi explained: "Those grains and grasses are only for temporary emergency use. I have informed the Empress Dowager that she will arrange for people to transport more grains and grasses. When a natural disaster strikes, the people will definitely be concerned when they see that the court can act quickly. The court is grateful."

Nan Xuan nodded, with a flash of appreciation in his eyes: "If it is true as you said, this battle will not only prevent the emperor from being blamed for the civil war, but also regain the hearts and minds of the people. You have made a great contribution."

Yun Xi sighed softly and said calmly: "I am not doing meritorious service, but to avenge Yi Han and get my head back."

In fact, she was full of determination to eliminate harm for the people, but she also knew that in the Daqing Dynasty, women's ambitions and ideas were often regarded as inappropriate. Her experiences in her previous life were full of hardships and challenges, but she never gave up on her faith.

Thinking of Yi Han, Yun Xi felt a surge of sadness in her heart. If Yihan hadn't destroyed King Lingnan's gunpowder depot, even if a hundred thousand soldiers encircled and suppressed him, there would probably be no return. The power of that kind of gunpowder is enough to kill a person's body. She didn't know how Yi Han was doing now, but as long as he was still alive, no matter what he became, she would feel lucky.

There was still a week left before the natural disaster predicted by Yun Xi, so she decided to stay in Nanxitang temporarily. While the military's actions were dramatic, she knew it was a necessary strategy. Sure enough, the spies quickly noticed their movements.

After staying in Nanxitang for two days, Yunxi decided to head towards Dongyuan. Although this is the opposite of the road to Lingnan, it only takes three days to take the road from Dongyuan to Lingnan. She decided to stop in Dongyuan to further observe the situation.

The soldiers were stationed outside Dongyuan City, and the army of thousands of people naturally attracted the attention of the government. Yun Xi ordered people to declare to the outside world that they were reinforcements heading to Ganzhou to build a waterway and were waiting for supplies in Dongyuan. The government did not doubt his presence and even subsidized some food and grass.

It's winter now and the weather is extremely cold. The soldiers did not have winter clothes yet, so this battle could only be fought quickly. Yun Xi is not completely sure in her heart, because many things in this life are different from those in her previous life. She was not sure whether the blizzard would come as planned.

However, she was undeterred. She knew that no matter what the outcome, she must do her best to protect the people and maintain the tranquility of the country. This is her responsibility and mission as a military commander.
