The problem now is that the front line has entered a stalemate. This is the news brought back by Uncle Tang San.

Lin Qian told him how to make "fried noodles", and he ordered people to make twenty carts of "fried noodles". These fried noodles were made from soybeans, rice, wheat, etc. and added salt.

After it was completed, he personally sent it to the front line and brought several letters home to Lin Qian when he came back.

Father Tang also gave some words of advice in the letter, asking her to think twice before acting.

Dou's mother's letters are full of praise and affirmation.

Tang Shiming spent half a page praising her for making the military rations easy to use, and the other half thanking her for helping his sister-in-law get out of the shadow of losing her son.

When Sanshu Tang came back, he brought dozens of disabled veterans with him, and he also planned to follow the old-to-new model.

He also brought back the news that Tang Jiyuan was still missing.

Tang Ron sent spies to lurk among the rebels, and only found out that the fourth leader of the rebels was a girl who once captured a beautiful man and hid it in the back house.

At this point, Uncle Tang's face turned pale, and he said angrily: "It's true that the world is declining and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be. That female traitor actually did something like robbing a man."

Lin Qianqi said: "Second brother is not weak in martial arts, and he is followed by guards. How could he be snatched away by someone?"

Uncle Tang's expression became even worse, and he snorted coldly: "The spy reported that the female traitor is good at using poison. She can make people faint with just a wave of her hand."

Lin Qian became more and more interested and continued to ask: "I just heard from my third uncle that the woman is the four leaders. Who are the three leaders?"

Tang Sanshu introduced: "The rebels call themselves the 'Xingdao Army', and they are large in number and powerful. It is currently known that the leader Zhang Liang once served as a government servant, and the remaining three have not been found out clearly."

"In the name of "doing justice for heaven," these people attacked cities and captured towns, burned government offices, and raided Wubao. They not only killed the Lingnan governor, but also cut off his head and hung it on the city wall. They acted cruelly and brutally."

Lin Qian asked how the fighting between the two sides was going, and learned that both sides had their own victories and defeats, and that the battle was currently in a "stalemate stage."

She asked in confusion: "How can the rebels be so powerful?"

It doesn't follow logical reasoning. The plague in Lingnan has not been controlled, so the rebels' combat effectiveness should not be strong.

After getting in touch with each other, it turned out that Tang Rong and Tang Shiming were both talented people with strong martial arts skills. How could they deal with the rebels who had an unstable foundation?

Uncle Tang San touched his beard and sighed: "If all the rebels are wiped out in one go, the position of the governor may be unstable."

Lin Qian lowered her head and thought deeply. Is Tang Nu planning to "raise the bandits to respect themselves" now?

Thinking about it, after all, he was exiled by the emperor and so many people in his family died, it is strange that he is still loyal.

Raising the invaders to respect themselves is the first step. What is he going to do next? Should he support the invaders to enrich himself or use the invaders to support his troops?

Also, what was the imperial court's reaction? Would they be so confident about using Tang Rong?

Of course, I was worried. A few days later, the eunuch who was ordered to supervise the battle arrived.

Also brought along were food and medicinal materials that were originally used for disaster relief, but now because of the war, they have been turned into military rations.

Uncle Tang took Lin Qian to receive him. The eunuch who came this time was named Chen Zhong. He was very different from the image in movies and TV shows. He was tall and majestic and neither humble nor overbearing.

Chen Zhong was the person left by the Empress Dowager Feng to the young emperor. Lin Qian felt that he was a difficult character and she didn't know how Tang Nu would deal with it.

The eunuch who oversaw the army only stayed in the city for two days and then hurried to the place where Tang Ron garrisoned with people and supplies.

Unable to intervene in frontline matters, Lin Qian continued to recruit workers to repair canals.

Recently, refugees have been coming one after another to recruit hungry people to build water conservancy projects, in an attempt to "rich their servants with money to feed the hungry people."

There was also a busy scene in the farmland. She led people on horseback to inspect a village. If nothing unexpected happened, the food before winter would be guaranteed.

On the way back to the city, Lin Qian planned to go back and discuss the farming system with Uncle Tang San. Military camps had to obtain military pay and military rations to feed the soldiers.

Is it better to open up wasteland on our own, or to fight with the nobles and cut off some land from them?

Just when she was considering the pros and cons of the two methods, the sound of arrows piercing the air sounded.

Lin Qian heard Danxin shouting from behind: "Sixteenth Mother, get off your horse quickly!"

Someone jumped down from the tree and shouted: "Dog officer, take your life!"
