Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Chen Peng glanced around and, noticing that there were still people who disagreed, said, "Fu Changming and I will have a showdown sooner or later. Either he will swallow me up, or I will swallow him up."

"I know that starting a war now would be bad for my reputation, but reputation is not important."

"Only the territory you hold in the end is truly important."

Furthermore, once he takes over Wenzhou from Fu Changming, those around him will likely follow suit after seeing the breach he has created.

One person, one city—that's enough to completely stop Fu Changming's development.

Chen Peng's explanation was reasonable and well-founded. The chief of staff asked one last question: their actions would inevitably offend Cheng Dujiu.

Aren't you afraid that Cheng will give you a cup of poisoned liquor?

Chen Peng chuckled. He would never go to Cheng Dujiu's territory, so where would he get the liquor from?

Moreover, he looked down on Fu Changming; if he were the one being summoned, he would simply find an excuse not to go.

Unlike Fu Changming, who believed that someone had helped him and was willing to go and learn from his mistakes.

What a fool! In chaotic times, reputation is the least important thing.

"Reputation is the most important thing," Fu Qi said to Li Xing.

Li Xing also felt that the commander-in-chief could skip the trip, but Fu Qi disagreed. She told Li Xing that Liu Bei gained many followers by virtue of his good reputation.

He eventually established the Shu Kingdom and became one of the three hegemons.

"A good reputation can attract talent to settle down, but a good reputation alone is not enough; one also needs sufficient power to maintain that reputation."

Li Xing nodded: "So the commander is going now for his reputation, and also for the future of Yunyang."

"right."

The two talked as they arrived at their post.

Since Fu Changming was absent, Fu Qi took his place and Li Xing came along with him.

Her office was next to her father's office. Fu Qi and Li Xing curiously toured all the items before sitting down.

An Sheng did her homework.

As it was lunchtime, Fu Qi and Li Xing hadn't left the house yet when they heard footsteps approaching her office.

A loud knocking sound.

"Enter."

The person who came in was Chief of Staff Yu You: "Young Marshal, our informant called and said that Chen Peng is preparing to attack Wenzhou."

"Deputy Commander Wang requests your presence in his office to discuss countermeasures."

Without saying a word, Fu Qi gave Li Xing a look, and Li Xing, holding a notebook and pen, followed Chief of Staff Fu Qi and went together.

The office desk is a rectangular table, with a single seat at the head and people already seated on either side.

Fu Qi adjusted her breathing and sat down in her father's seat, the head seat.

Li Xing first stood behind her, gave Fu Qi a notebook and a pen, and then sat down in her father's seat.

Fu Qi spoke first: "Did the informant provide any specific information?"

Deputy Commander Wang handed her a piece of paper with the information provided by the informant written on it. After reading it, Fu Qi looked at Deputy Commander Wang and asked, "Have you read it all?"

"not yet."

"Take a look at them all."

As they read through the messages one by one, their faces were filled with anger towards Chen Peng.

A map was placed behind Fu Qi, and the staff even arranged it according to her height, which was quite thoughtful.

Fu Qi was also looking at the location of Wen City, which was located to the lower right of Yunyang.

"What do you all think? Tell me," Fu Qi said.

Deputy Commander Wang looked at her and thought to himself: She's quite capable, calm and collected, and knows how to follow procedures.

He said, "Chen Peng did it on purpose. He took advantage of the commander's absence, thinking that we were not united and could not make decisions, so he started the war."

"Moreover, I suspect that he is not the only one who wants to make underhanded moves. Wei Shi in the west and Nan Zhen in the north may be ready to make a move at any time."

Deputy Commander Han fully agreed, and he also pointed out: "If all three parties act simultaneously, we will not have enough manpower to deal with all three, and we will have to abandon one side and take it back later."

The chief of staff had a different opinion: "There is about a 50% chance of Nan Zhen taking action, but only a 20% chance of Wei Shi taking action, as long as we send a high-ranking person to guard it."

"Wei Shi would never be able to imagine it."

His opinion was that as long as they could overcome Wei Shi's cowardice, they could defend everything.

As he spoke, his gaze subtly drifted towards Fu Qi.

Upon seeing this, Xu Li, the commander of the First Division, took the lead in volunteering for battle: "I will lead two thousand men to defend Yucheng." He went to face Wei Shi directly.

If Fu Changming were here, he would definitely go; it would boost the morale of the soldiers.

But he's not here, so it's not right to send Fu Qi, a child, alone.

Fu Qi learned of Wei Shi's weakness, and with the chief of staff's subtle gaze, she scanned the map until she spotted a river.

A glint of light flashed in her eyes, and she tapped the table with her left hand. The argument stopped, and everyone's eyes turned to her.

"I've found a way."

Fu Qi personally led two thousand men to Yucheng. Before they went, there was a pre-battle mobilization meeting, and she didn't make any grand pronouncements.

They simply sent people to memorize and write down the names of all the soldiers who went to war.

The first name on the panel posted in the military camp was unusual because it belonged to a child: Fu Qi.

Upon seeing her name, everyone felt a surge of courage. If the young marshal dared to go with them, what did they have to be afraid of?

There was also a surge of anger. With the commander-in-chief absent, they were bullying their young commander because he was young. They were truly shameless bastards.

Fu Qi's gaze swept over the ordinary faces one by one. Holding a megaphone, she announced loudly, "The list is now complete. I promise those who go into battle today will be rewarded according to their merits if they return alive."

"If you die in battle, I will support your parents for the rest of their lives, find a job for your wife, and raise your child until he or she is eighteen."

"To protect our families behind us, we have no way out. We must fight them off and defeat them."

She raised her right hand, her face radiating fearless courage: "Let's go."

"As the young marshal commands!" The roar of ten thousand men was deafening, their faces filled with fighting spirit.

Perhaps there is fear, but the steps are forward, never retreating.

Upon hearing the news, the birds flying in the sky immediately flew to higher places, fearing that they would be overwhelmed by this momentum.

Fu Qi stepped down from the stage and got into the car. The driver started the engine, and Deputy Commander Wang followed her. He looked at Fu Qi with a complex mix of pride and satisfaction.

As expected of the successor chosen by the commander-in-chief, he possesses a unique kind of courage.

They weren't sending Fu Qi to the battlefield themselves; it was just that the army needed someone to maintain morale, and with her there, that was enough.

The young marshal, the successor of the great marshal, has not retreated, which shows that they will definitely win this battle. This is the most common thought among ordinary people.

This is also the best situation that Deputy Commander Wang wants to maintain.

Deputy Commander Wang comforted him, saying, "Young Marshal, you don't need to go to the battlefield personally. You just need to stay in the rear."

Hearing this man refer to him as the "Young Marshal," Fu Qi couldn't help but smile. Indeed, even several division commanders had changed how they addressed him.

Young Marshal, what a wonderful title.

she likes.

"I understand, thank you for teaching me. I'm grateful for your help in this battle."
