Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

As Shen Lanxi opened the bamboo tube, she said, "Disaster relief!"

Liu Yanhui lowered his eyes and said, "Disaster relief should go to the north, why did it go to the southeast?"

Shen Lanxi handed him a piece of paper and said, "After reading it, call Master Hu and Liu Lao Hu!"

After Liu Yanhui lowered his head to read the contents, his breathing became a little tight. He gently put the paper down, pressed it with the book, and quickly went to call for help!

Liu Lao Hu and Wei Dongzhu arrived quickly.

Shen Lanxi signaled with her eyes that Liu Yanhui should show them the paper.

Their reactions after watching it were the same as Liu Yanhui's.

"Why did a riot break out?" Liu Lao Hu muttered to himself in disbelief.

Shen Lanxi said calmly: "The drought has lasted for half a year. Before leaving Beijing, have you heard any news about the drought?"

Liu Lao Hu and Liu Yan shook their heads.

Wei Dongzhu came all the way from the west and hadn't heard of it.

"You mean, the local government concealed the truth and didn't report it?" Liu Yanhui was speechless.

Shen Lanxi: "I can't think of any other explanation except this one!"

Liu Yanhui couldn't believe it and asked, "Why? How dare the government conceal such a big thing?"

Shen Lanxi said coldly: "Officials have food to eat, who cares about the lives of ordinary people?"

Liu Yanhui gritted her teeth, her face full of resentment.

Liu Lao Hu was also very angry: "They don't know that the drought is serious, the fields are not harvested, and the people can't survive. Will they make a fuss?"

Shen Lanxi's eyes were deep: "Report the drought to the court. If it is mild, the higher-ups will judge it as improper local governance. At the very least, it will affect promotion, and at the worst, it will lead to demotion."

Wei Dongzhu clenched his fists: "So they concealed the truth, and now the truth is finally revealed?"

Shen Lanxi: "This is an opportunity for us!"

The three of them looked at Shen Lanxi and rioted. What chance was there left?

"If there is no riot, the exile team must stamp the documents every time they arrive at a provincial capital. If they fail to arrive within the specified time, the crime will be even more serious!"

"Riots are happening in many places now. The prefecture and county offices have all become decorations. If a few seals are missing on documents, no one will investigate!"

Liu Yanhui and the others frowned. The above could only be said to be an excuse. The word "opportunity" was too far-fetched, right?

Shen Lanxi handed over the second piece of information.

"plague……"

The three of them exclaimed in unison.

Shen Lanxi analyzed: "Our ship is heading north all the way. When we come across a port, we must not stop!"

"A large number of disaster victims will flee to places with water. If the riots are true, the port must have been occupied by the rioters. If we dock to resupply, it would be like sending sheep into the tiger's mouth!"

Liu Yan replied: "The food I bought at the dock is only enough for two boats to use for half a month. If we can catch a considerable amount of fish every day and save some, it should be enough to support a month!"

It wasn't that he didn't want to buy more, it was that no matter where he went, there wasn't that much food in stock. Also, the amount of food that could be bought for half a month was already the amount he had people disperse and buy in multiple times!

Shen Lanxi's third piece of information was a sea map!

"At our current speed, we will reach the Jiaozhou Islands in three days. Pirates have been roaming there for years. Now there are riots everywhere and crops have failed. Without food supplies, the pirates will definitely take risks!"

So?

What about the opportunity?

Shen Lanxi: "I have a bold idea!"

Liu Yanhui and the other two's hearts beat violently. Why did this sentence sound so familiar?

"What's the idea?" Liu Yanhui asked with a trembling voice.

Shen Lanxi bent her five fingers into claws and headed towards the Jiaozhou Islands.

"Get rid of the harm to the people and eat up all the pirates in this area!"

Liu Yan replied to Liu Lao Hu and Wei Dongzhu: Aren’t they sheep?

"My lord, they are well-trained pirates! If we act rashly, who knows who will be eaten?" Although Liu Yanhui didn't want to pour cold water on him, he had to.

Wei Dongzhu objectively analyzed the manpower they currently had and said, "The disparity in strength between the enemy and us is too great!"

Liu Yan turned her head and looked at Wei Dongzhu twice, then lowered her head and continued to look at the map.

Shen Lanxi withdrew her hand and said lightly: "So, I plan to borrow troops!"

This sentence was like a thunder, which made the three of them stare at her in silence for a long time!

Yoshihisa

Liu Yanhui trembled and asked, "My Lord, who are you going to borrow from?"

Shen Lanxi smiled, as if her words were worth a thousand gold coins, and said, "Third Princess!"

Are you kidding me?

Aren’t they being hunted by the third princess now?

Unless the Third Princess was crazy, there was no way she would lend them troops.

"My Lord, can you explain it more clearly? We don't understand."

Shen Lanxi's eyes rarely flashed with disdain: "Is the Third Princess hunting down the Shen family?"

Liu Yan nodded.

"What if the Third Princess's people knew that the Shen family was in the hands of pirates?"

Wei Dongzhu raised his eyebrows: "They are not stupid, won't they just sit back and reap the benefits?"

Shen Lanxi: "What if we go and join the pirates?"

Wei Dongzhu: Is it still possible?

Liu Yanhui and Liu Lao Hu both looked incredulous.

"Looking at the entire Great Zhou, who doesn't know that the Shen family stole the Wei family's army's food and money? Why did the pirates become bandits? Isn't it for money? What if the Shen family is willing to give the pirates food and money in exchange for protection?"

Three people: “…” Can the charge be used like this?

Liu Lao Hu touched his nose and said, "Isn't this a bit too immoral?"

Shen Lanxi looked at him sideways, took a deep breath, and cursed: "This is called deception in war!" If you don't understand, you can pretend to understand. She won't point it out, so why should you tell the truth?

Don’t you know that fools die from telling the truth?

~

The art of war, she actually knows the art of war?

Liu Yan's return to Wei Dongzhu was shocked.

Shen Lanxi pulled out the fourth piece of intelligence, pointed at an isolated island, and said, "Take Tongluo Island first!"

Wei Dongzhu: "Only by knowing both ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle. We know nothing about the situation on Tongluo Island right now. We must first find out how many people they have, how their forces are distributed, and what weapons they have!"

Shen Lanxi: "Choose one person to surrender!"

Liu Lao Hu and Wei Dongzhu all looked at Liu Yanhui.

Liu Yanhui's heart trembled when he was stared at: "You...why are you looking at me?"

Liu Lao Hu said with a grin, "Among all of us, you are the only one who looks like a brother-in-law!"

Wei Dongzhu rarely smiled.

Shen Lanxi: "Anyone who goes will be rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver. Anyone who joins the battle will be rewarded with one tael of silver for killing a pirate!"

Liu Yanhui's attitude changed, and he said respectfully: "The brother-in-law of the Shen family must be me!"

When Liu Lao Hu heard the price of five thousand taels, he was very excited.

“I think I’m more like a brother-in-law!”

Liu Yan replied to Wei Dongzhu: "..."

Shen Lanxi tapped the table lightly: "The premise of this plan is that the Third Princess's people must come after us. This way we can use them and make them both lose! If the Third Princess's people don't come, and the pirates come first, the sea will be the grave of all of us!"
